@CotswoldsQC She is 9 months old, meaning that she is not old enough to have completed the full course of childhood immunisations. Immunisations are delivered in stages at different age milestones, you're not "fully vaccinated" until pre-school age.

[JENDELLA 💎 BENSON @JENDELLA]

Babies born 2015 and later in the UK will have had Meningitis B vaccinations as part of their standard course of immunisations. Check your kids' red book if you're unsure, but if you kept on top of their imms, you shouldn't have anything to worry about. 🙏🏽

Will I ever get my NIN in this lifetime or...?

Thinking I should just travel to Naij on an expired passport and call it day.

Such a wholesome and meaningful conversation. A good note to end the year on.

✨ She Rises was a radiant celebration of Black womanhood, storytelling, and the power to reimagine.

@LolaJaye, Charmaine Wilkerson, and Christina Fonthes shared deeply moving reflections on love, lineage, and liberation, showing how fiction can be both a mirror and a map for Black women’s lives. Guided with care and insight by @JENDELLA, this conversation reminded us that our stories don’t just reflect who we are, they shape who we become. 🖤✨

My ex filmed a conversation where we were talking about infidelity. Then he decided to pay someone to animate the conversation. I liked the way the cartoon me looked.

working on a laptop outside is an abysmal experience

[JENDELLA 💎 BENSON @JENDELLA]

After it happened, the driver had to walk through a train of moaning, impatient commuters and manually open each carriage doors to let us off.

The traumatised look on his face has stuck with me ever since and still makes me want to cry.

Give them whatever they are asking for.

I've always supported the right for workers to strike, no matter what industry they are in.

But a few months back, I was on a London Overground train that hit a person who had jumped onto the track...
