I’m 40 in a few months. I have another 28 years (minimum) working until state pension age (as it stands now) but I, and many of my generation, have fully accepted there will no longer be a state pension when we get there. Pensioners cry about the social contract, but their generation made sure to…

Gov review into mental health has found that young people are not, in fact, snowflakes, but are actually suffering. Declaring them weak, enhancing stigma and therefore causing harm to those poor people. Perhaps boomers could take their paid-for houses and triple locked pensions and fuck off now?

Perhaps we don’t need to listen to billionaires about tax and immigration, since they are the ultimate experts in tax avoidance by migrating elsewhere, but while continuing to amass wealth off the back of British working people.

I remember Christmas 2019, the last before Covid changed the world, the BBC showed a two hour Dolly Parton special on BBC 2 (I think). Later she was instrumental in the development of Moderna’s Covid vaccine. Quietly. No fuss. Just gave the resources to save lives. I’ll say again. Legend.

Dolly Parton. There won’t be another like her. Thanks for the music, the movies and for bringing the joy of reading to millions of children. And personally, thanks for Buffy The Vampire Slayer. Legend.

There’s this new game that the tabloid socials are playing where they fly helicopters over celebrities houses and lawn shame them because they’re green… fun times.

Why is it that I’m seeing potential government policy (which are almost certainly announced to win popular support and are therefore terrible ideas) as “Andy Burnham says…” posts on social media. What a ridiculous way to govern. Twat.

The clacton outcome is so exciting because either a humanoid bin enters Parliament, or a parliamentary investigation into an idiot - who thought it would end - continues after a brief hiatus. Who says politics is dull?!

Eew. I seem to follow someone who bought the creepy Facebook glasses and proudly sharing stories labelled as “Made with Creepy Facebook Glasses” or whatever Zuckerberg calls them. Unfollowed. We don’t condone creepy pervert glasses in this house.

There’s a new record for the longest running chart song in 73years and I couldn’t pick it out of a lineup of 2 songs, even if the second song was Barbie Girl by Aqua. Many elderly, much frail.

Can’t help but wonder if twat Streeting was crying because he was given Defence or he was given it because he was crying… Also, now Healy will be the one to have to justify the defence budget he resigned over. Fucking shower, the lot of them! Back to ignoring the news. Join me, it’s bliss!

Nigel Farage is wasting tax payer money to massage his ego and try to avoid scrutiny over his grifting. I hope Clacton hand him his arse and vote him out.

I’m now at the part of the heatwave where a 30 degree breeze is nice and cool. Is this acclimatisation?! (Still getting air conditioning fitted though!)

Between diabetes and neurodivergence, I can regulate my temperature. So yep. Just booked survey visit for fixed air con system. I can’t do this anymore! If I have to go into debt to survive future heatwaves so be it.

Evaporative cooling does not work in the UK! When humidity is 70%, adding more moisture to cool you down is useless.

Next week is going to be fucking unbearable. Trapped in a windowless, stone building which retains heat like an oven, no AC, temperatures 26 degrees in normal weather, not even a fan because other wards fucking steal them overnight. Fuck my life.

Ok. So now the government has to *define* social media in law, by which the companies can change their models to circumvent said definition and therefore ignore the ban.

Streeting is a key architect of the erasure of LGBTQIA+ rights in this country. We see right through his leadership PR campaign.

Probably an unpopular opinion, but I’m of the opinion that certain phrases are worth the effort of fully typing out: HBD RIP TY ILY These just read to me as “can’t be bothered, you’re not worth the effort.” I’m probably wrong though, it’s known to happen.

Unfortunately the BBC do not do Eurovision properly. The first time wider general audiences of Europe (not Eurovision hardcore fans) see our act is in the semi-final. They see a total of two performances on which to base an opinion.
