@Nothinbuttreble I have cousins who had kids in their 40s. They also have amazing careers. They spent their 30s establishing themselves and nurturing their goals. They can afford to send their babies to college if they choose to and they found stable partners who are devoted to them. Inspiring!
Look at this. I see no excuse for a white person to ask me for resources when there are so many more things that exist to help you than there were when I was young. #DoTheWork
Week 2 is out - please give it a watch and an RT so we can amplify this important range of stories & experiences! 🙏
It's such an honour to share a platform with inspiring young people like Abi & Tristan who so eloquently share their own reflections on isolation 👇
Our 5 year old seems to have deemed himself the local virus warden.
Over the fence to our neighbour:
‘JEAN YOU NEED TO GO INSIDE’
‘Okay I will in a minute’
‘YOU’RE OLD AND THERE’S A VIRUS’
‘I’m not that old thank you’
‘HOW OLD ARE YOU JEAN?’
‘I’m 68.’
‘THAT IS NEARLY 70 JEAN.’
Our spaces are closed for now but we still have a ton of plans.
In the meantime, here’s Kirsty who runs our after school club with our Local Producer making arts and crafts packs for some of our local young artists to keep creating from home 🎨
Guilty pleasure as emotional therapy: I don't know who needs to hear this today, but I suggest you listen to Fatlip by Sum 41 really loudly, sing along and for 3 mins forget how shit things are.
Been feeling a litt bit ‘whygodwhatdoyouwantfromme!’ lately, so I’ve been reading about Adrian Howells and watching Contrapoints. It so good to have reminders of the importance of care and empathy when you want to burn the world down.
Brexit Britain will likely become a kind of hybrid nation: more welcoming to foreign capital but more hostile to foreign people; greener but more conservative; freer on the world stage, but weaker. https://t.co/un96Jj0JM1
Much to promote but the suffering of Indigenous Communities in these #AustralianWildFires has been largely left out of media coverage.
Protected lands decimated.
Please give what you can to support fire relief for First Nation Communities in Australia https://t.co/B82QfZWVeI
@bobimono I like barry m's darkest brown lip liner paired with taupe lipstick by mac. If your skin tone is on the richer side form a thick liner and blend it well so that it's not too stark... It works for me.
We’ll be taking donations at the show tonight and all profits will be given to local food banks.
Please bring cash and support those that this government won’t this Christmas. ❤️
If some accuse me of talking to both sides in the Brexit debate then so be it. I’m proud of it.
Why would I only want to talk to half the country? I don’t want to live in half a country.
A prime minister must talk and listen to everyone - and bring our divided country together.
