Fuck! Peter Dutton is two years YOUNGER than me.

I just ordered this in the 24/7 radiance set. First time user of Go To and now I’m excited to try it. Hopefully it will make it to Ireland! 

@Ms Jane We all flushed tampons in the 80’s. I lived in a house with 3 sisters and one toilet and there was no bin in that toilet. High School had “med bins” in each stall of the new buildings but the old outdoor toilet block had a communal incinerator with a hatch. I can only imagine the chimney of smoke circling upwards. So you would change your pad or tampon in the cubicle putting the used one WHERE ? while you adjusted your tights and plaid skirt with a bloody finger and then exit the stall with the used one to put it in the hatch. You could try and wipe the blood but schools used a special kind of shiny water resistant toilet paper on a locking roll that would tear like a parade streamer if you tried to get more than a sheet at a time. 

The fact that his colleagues groaned is why we have to keep speaking out about all child abuse, including historical cases. The reason the perpetrators get away with it is because so many would rather not know, would rather not believe and would most definitely prefer not to do anything about it. 

Also,  when I went to my hairdresser after the first horrific long, no services lockdown she asked me how I was. I sighed, as I really didn’t want to start crying and she made eye contact in the mirror, put down the colour brush and went away, only to reappear with a glass of Prosecco. Some people get it. 

I feel you. 

@laura__palmer yay sister! Jesus was best friends with a Sex Worker and hung around with 12 guys, at least 2 of whom were probably gay. He preached love and acceptance, sharing and looking after those more vulnerable. 

Consider this a squeeze hug Deni. I lost my nephew to suicide and my Dad to self neglect, because the same pedophile abused them both as children and they never got past the shame. This predator was considered a pillar of the community until his dying day. The truth only came out when he was already dust in the ground. 

Well? Did you change your mind? (I checked insta, you didn’t) 

I’ve been dealing with narcissistic anti vaccination cult leaders for 20 plus years - my two very healthy kids are autistic. I just wish that the platforms that amplified their dangerous message had listened to us, and shut down their access. The online forums and message boards of the early 2000’s and then the blogs, YouTube, Facebook, Instagram and now Tik Tok all bear responsibility for the current disease of misinformation prevalent today. Thank you Mia for fighting the good fight. 

I threw my younger sister’s recorder into the dam. She was playing Mary had a little lamb outside my bedroom door when I was studying for the HSE and there isn’t a court in the world that would convict me. 

Have you seen the film? There is no way it will bomb. It’s the best Spider-Man film and one of the best films I’ve ever seen. And when the 3 meet. !!!! Absolute privilege to see on the big screen. 

I had a UTI on and off for the first part of my current relationship. Kept going to the GP, taking antibiotics and drinking cranberry. It’s only now, 35 years later that I realise “jack rabbit sex” was what was causing it. My now husband had never learned there was any other way. 

Thank you. I’m trying to get HRT and my GP made me get a mammogram last month, before he will prescribe. I’m a public patient and got a letter to go back for second check up for a “feel” and an ultrasound and I was panicking. Now I’m telling myself it’s ok. It’s next week.

And yes, I had a very sad ultrasound too. It was 25 years ago and I had a lovely boy the following year so I thought I was over it. Came straight back to me when I was listening to you.
