Someone in the office makes terrible coffee, and I normally say no when he asks everyone if they want one. Today he put me on the spot and asked me directly so I've been very British and said yes out of politeness.

we live in a world right now where the rich (or those who wish to be so) are desperate to cast empathy as weakness. As the enemy. Throughout her whole life Dolly showed the exact opposite is true. Empathy is what makes us our best selves. For your own happiness, and others, be kind.

If people are posting less, or fewer are posting, try following more people to fill your timeline up. It's highly unlikely that you already followed all the people you will like. Repost more. Recommend people to others more. Also over follow as this helps others find their people.

As I badly need to lose weight, I'm trying to be strict with myself and cut out sweets and rubbish carbs. I'm sure it's purely coincidental that I'm now seriously pissed off and hate everything.

Honestly, making a child a symbol for how Our Kids are Over-Medicated and not even having the decency to stop using him that way when it turns out he did, actually, benefit from and need the medication is horrible, dishonest behaviour.
