@siliconglen@AvantiWestCoast Thank you for the reply @siliconglen - can't believe the mess you've all been left in. I managed to retrieve my husband and get him home to Penrith in the end. No thanks to Avanti. Hope you get home safe and as fast as possible!
It’s been 63 years since suicide was decriminalised in the UK. But so many of us still use the term ‘commit suicide’.
Why does it matter? Language that links suicide and crime can increase stigma and prevent people struggling with suicidal thoughts from speaking out.
If we choose language like ‘died by suicide’ or ‘took their own life’ we allow space for open conversations and compassion. Let’s choose our words carefully.
#WorldSuicidePreventionDay
A judge asked a woman who was violated by countless men while unconscious to call her rapes "sex scenes". I'd say I'm shocked but this casual indifference to women's suffering is so grimly everyday, I can only hold my head in my hands.

Is it Time to stop calling it “domestic abuse” or “violence against women & girls”?
It’s MALE VIOLENCE
When we identify the perpetrator rather than just the victim, we have a chance of eliminating it because we focus on the cause & not only it’s effect
@Peleton11@BiffyClyro Yes indeed - the only remaining option for most fans as when the actual sale happened at 10am, each of the 6 dates were already sold out, presumably due to this kind of scalper shithousery
@IanFortey Respectfully and kindly, that's not what appropriate care for a rescued primate looks like. The food, the clothes, the filming - it's all wrong. Monkeys would ask us not to share this stuff if they could! More info: https://t.co/i5JiydG555
Peace, love & happy monkeys 🐒🐒🐒
