An individual reclines outdoors, their feet resting on a gray wicker coffee table with a light wood-plank top. They wear blue jeans and distinctive gray wingtip shoes featuring colorful floral patterned uppers and bright red laces. In the foreground, the person holds open a book, with the text-filled pages sharply in focus. To the left, a large wooden mug with a thick rope handle sits on a small orange side table next to a gray wicker armchair. A black portable JBL speaker rests on the coffee table in the background, set against a green lawn and garden.

If you were to count out a million seconds, it would take you 11 and a half days. A billion seconds would take you 31.7 years. But a trillion seconds would take 31,700 years — to reach that point today, you would have needed to start counting around the time that neanderthals went extinct.

An audio setup featuring a black turntable with a clear dust cover resting on the top shelf of a dark wood and black metal entertainment unit. On the middle shelf, two Edifier bookshelf speakers with wood-grain side panels flank a small, plush blue elephant toy. To the left of the speakers, several vinyl record jackets are displayed vertically, including "Music for the Jilted Generation" by The Prodigy. The bottom shelf features black metal wire dividers for record storage.

I would love to work full time still but it's dangerous for my wife to be gone for hours on end. I'm a full time carer now on 83 a week and do 80+ hours a week doing everything for her. If I was not there then someone on 500 a week would have to look after my wife.

As a disabled person I am not “insulted” by the tiny number of folk circumventing the system… I’m insulted by disability benefits being less than a liveable amount. By the process being inaccessible and harming vulnerable people. By ableists making ableist assumptions.

Far too true. I'm a full time carer for my wife and have been paying into the system for some 34+years the same as my wife. Last week while Imputting my income and expenses, I made a small mistake and rectified it an hour later. However my wife's payment for tomorrow is now delayed.

Turn 50 next month and have both been working since the age of 12 so have both paid into the system. My wife literally cannot do anything for herself apart from making phone calls. In the last six months she has only been able to make 1 cup of tea. I only get 83 pounds a week for caring for my wife.
