So, I'm trying (and failing) to convince a 4 year old that corn flakes aren't just baby tortilla chips. Any ideas, bluesky?

Wanna discount, go to Briscoes. If you're tasked with promoting safety and enforcing the law, but you break the law instead, then plead for wet-bus-ticket justice, your decades of service count for sweet FA.

Almost certainly true for the person who rªpəd me. Even though I said no, repeatedly (which ought not be a requirement) I'm sure he thought that he just had to work a little harder for it that night.

Sept 28 #whoroscope Quite specific this week: message for MJ, Aquarian, lives in a town staring with C: Create opportunities for spontaneity by getting ahead in your self care. Wear nice undies to boost confidence. There's something about a squirrel, so watch out for images or the actual animal.

Not typically. Perhaps, if there are concerns about a pain response, but my doc just advises to take two Panadol (like Tylenol) an hour before the procedure. Might be different with other patients — he's aware that my pain tolerance is relatively high.

This is a bit weird, but mouthwash recommendations, please. I usually use the purple Listerine but I think they've changed the formula or perhaps watered it down. I'm a vigorous gargler and looking for something that doesn't froth too much.

Question for fellow #domme and #findom friends of Bluesky: I'm in a space where I'd love to onboard a new thrall, but all I've found are so-called #paypigs who say they want to be controlled, but can't follow simple instructions. What has happened to the scene?!

Eww. You just know some rich, judgmental prick is going to be saying "people shouldn't have kids if they can't provide for them" whilst using this to provide little Jimmy and Suzy with an emotional poverty model they'll have to struggle with their whole lives. Eww.

A survivor had to turn to him for help, it's not like he did this of his own accord. I'm unconvinced that he didn't already have an inkling, and equally unconvinced that he couldn't have followed up/done more at the time.

There's an intimacy and vulnerabilty to oral that can really shine in some connections, but overall, I'd say hand stuff for getting the dang thing done. Also, I'm all about kissing, so I like my lover's face close to mine.

It's true that if you want good eulogies, you should be a good person. But I understand people choosing kindness over absolute truth in a crucial moment, to give space to those who are at their most vulnerable. Am I wrong? Help me understand. 🧵

It's fucking heartless, and a hard thing to do – actively deciding to make the grieving process harder for someone once you know them. Even if his death is no great loss to most people, it's a great loss to someone. I can't blame his colleagues for being diplomatic, if only for his family's sake.

So what do you do when your colleague dies, you're in the public eye, and you're expected to say something? You struggle for something nice, or at least neutral. Because you met his wife and kids at that thing that one time, you know they're going through hell right now, and it's not their fault.

I think about how when my own imperfect father died, how I could barely breathe through the grief. How I would have felt if people threw each of his faults and poor decisions back in my face. I think about my own imperfections and how, like many of us, I'll probably leave plenty to throw.

Because this guy wasn't a bad man, just a bad man's brother. His brother wasn't there to receive the vitriol, he was. And I knew that losing a family member is complicated enough, without me adding to that.

I once spoke with someone who was grieving the loss of their estranged sibling, who had been a church leader of the worst kind. You all know what I'm talking about. And yes, the words "I hope he rots in hell" crossed my mind. But I didn't say them. Why?

🧵 This is going to make some people mad, but I'm honestly trying to understand the whole Grief Police thing. I get it, a certain someone died and is getting a whole bunch of tributes from colleagues that we might not think he deserves.
