. @sarah-285.bsky.social · 21hFor twenty grueling minutes, Paul had been tugging at the hem of Nounou’s cashmere cardigan, repeating his single-minded demand with the relentlessness of a dripping tap. "Cache-cache!" Paul had squeaked, bouncing on his legs. "Nounou, fais cache-cache! Paul va se cacher!" 100
. @sarah-285.bsky.social · 14/10/2026No one understands how much the 'Muslims commit every sin under the sun but drinking alcohol and eating pork' line makes me laugh. It takes me straight back to when we were freshly engaged 100

. @sarah-285.bsky.social · 14/10/2026Remember when toddler Arthur was having the time of his life repeatedly popping baby Paul’s pacifier in and out just to watch him cry and un-cry like it was some sort of game 100
. @sarah-285.bsky.social · 14/10/2026And don't get me started on blokes who hold the door open for you until you shuffle past knowing full well they wouldn't care doing that if you were a man like I wish they'd just let it swing back and smack me in the face 100
. @sarah-285.bsky.social · 14/10/2026Part of actual gender equality means that when you’re on the Tube, you shouldn't expect a seated bloke to give up his spot for you. Yet you still get women whining, 'Whatever happened to chivalry? Why don't men give up their seats anymore?' :vvvv 000
. @sarah-285.bsky.social · 14/10/2026think we've got a total misapprehension here. Do French parents ever actually get angry, or do they just stand there puffing on a cigarette and muttering 'bof' 000
. @sarah-285.bsky.social · 14/10/2026At precisely 08:05, the local school bus had glided past the driveway, its exhaust releasing a soft puff of blue smoke in mocking farewell as it vanished down the boulevard. 100
. @sarah-285.bsky.social · 14/10/2026You lot are giving me serious flashbacks to my younger years, when I tried to bury my Middle Eastern side once, twice, a dozen times over because it didn't align with that polished European side 100
. @sarah-285.bsky.social · 14/10/2026I once talked about the bourgeois crowd trying so desperately to shed their own identity, only to end up as a botched, mutilated version of Europeans. They’re pathetic to me 000

. @sarah-285.bsky.social · 14/10/2026And please, don’t go judging the rest of us based on the riff-raff you see wandering around Italy. I know for a fact Italy is flooded with Egyptians it’s practically second only to Saudi Arabia and right ahead of the US for hosting our population 100
. @sarah-285.bsky.social · 14/10/2026Do you reckon I should chuck those two months in Egypt onto my CV under the guise of 'working under immense pressure'? Mind you, I did six months in A&E before that, but still... 000
. @sarah-285.bsky.social · 14/10/2026I’m not going to specify that it happened in Egypt, because you’ll inevitably assume our youth are dim, which is hardly accurate and Black people from Kenya and Zimbabwe are not the original Egyptians, thank you very much 000
. @sarah-285.bsky.social · 14/10/2026I’ve just remembered this ridiculous moment. A nurse asked a thin teenager to step on the scales, and he swaggered back over with absolute confidence and went, '140 kilos' 100
. @sarah-285.bsky.social · 14/10/2026Like I keep telling my sister that every man can afford marriage instantly if he actually wants to, but she insists that’s terribly old-fashioned as if they’re just 'testing the waters' with each other. I just go, 'Right, fine every sheep hangs by its own ankle in the end' 000
. @sarah-285.bsky.social · 14/10/2026If you watch the animal kingdom, you’ll notice the male just rocks up for a bit of action and disappears into thin air, leaving the mother to handle everything from A to Z. Valid except that we aren't animals 000
. @sarah-285.bsky.social · 14/10/2026So this woman Elizabeth is currently having a total meltdown because the bloke she had children with has completely turned around and gone, 'Not my kids,' 100

. @sarah-285.bsky.social · 14/10/2026The local park had been selected for a wholesome, high-culture outing a brisk afternoon walk to expose baby Paul to the noble, gentle beauty of woodland fauna. 100
. @sarah-285.bsky.social · 14/10/2026Anyway, today I saw a mother who stood her toddler up so she could adjust her coat. He immediately clung to her, so she nudged him back a bit and said, 'Just let me sort myself out' but he clung to her again, When is it going to be my turn to have a tiny human who sees me as their whole world 000
. @sarah-285.bsky.social · 14/10/2026How it feels for the Middle East to be the centre of attention and war simultaneously the cradle of religions, yet God’s wrath seems perpetually reserved for it every single time 000
. @sarah-285.bsky.social · 14/10/2026France 24 don't know how to shut their trap. Out of nowhere, they pop up with a breaking news alert saying France has warned its citizens against travelling to Jeddah, Riyadh, and Dammam. Husband immediately goes, 'Didn't you say you were visiting Jeddah next November? Well, I don't think so' 000

. @sarah-285.bsky.social · 12/10/2026I genuinely can't decide if I actually like minimalism or if it's bad for my brain. An empty space leaves my mind feeling hollow, but the second there’s too much clutter around, my brain goes into overdrive processing all the extra noise and I get overstimulated 000
