Thank you for posting this, it resonated with me, the child of an absentee, alcoholic mother who had 3 kids at 21 and no idea how to love them without beating them into fear and submission. She realised far too late how she effed up just before she died and none of us had significant contact with her anymore. Her…

Madame Monsieur would never have won, they are talking about being merciful to migrants, too many Eastern European countries, Italy, Greece etc are not fond of migrants, it was too political, a big no no in Eurovision, beautiful song though.

I beg to differ:

What the hell is up with that wired thing he is doing with his fist? It looks stupid and awkward, like a rich, old white creep trying to appear cool and tough.

Thanks!

My mum died in 2002 from liver failure because she was an alcoholic, we had a strained relationship, we hadn’t seen each other for 10 years before she passed, we talked on the phone but I couldn’t stay healthy with her in my life. Sometimes I dream that she didn’t actually die and my dad has to leave his current wife…

Starred this because you articulated exactly what I feel about rational conversation, I don’t come here to be insulted I come here for fun and witty discourse, we don’t have to agree but let’s be kind.

I see what you mean about the name, wicked witch vibes maybe? The colour is perfect though if they ship to Europe I will try it out.

I need a good emerald green nail polish for a wedding if anyone has any suggestions they would be welcome. Also any tutorials for a smoky eye that you could suggest would be awesome!

I had loads of problems with Kinja so stopped posting for about a month but I do think that things have shifted around here, there is strange undertone at times that makes me very uncomfortable and reluctant to share because of possible trolly repercussions, SNS is still a safe space though.

Avoid exercising outside, shower at night to stop the pollen getting into your bedsheets and lots of antihistamines, I also take my inhaler everywhere. Hope he feels better, maybe next year you could try desensitizing, you do need to start in December or January for it work though.

I have a couple of blue tits nesting in my moulding, little buggers have dug in a bit but sadly I found a little body on my decking the other day, poor little thing. One of the parents watched me dispose of the body, felt very strange, they are such shy little birds.

Quit drinking to lose weight... so it is tea with milk for me, my mum died a long time ago so this day has little to no meaning for me.

No plans, aimlessly wandered for a while and started working at 17, it worked for me, found a fun job with a good company at 19 and 26 years later still at the same company and loving it. You don’t have to know exactly what you want at 18.

That is interesting to know, I have never thought about timing

I have IBS-C and the only relief is to eat properly (lots of soluble fibre and very few raw veggies for me) and the odd laxative from time to time when the constipation is more than 3 or 4 days. Also lots of water, some teas with licorice can help but they can give you the opposite effect with cramps which isn’t…

I’m liking Naomie and Kathryn this season, and I always like Cameron but all the men on this show are disgusting, and not Vanderpump rules disgusting but really crude, gross disgusting, I’m looking at you Thomas and JD you old scum.

2 packs of crisps, a vodka soda and a bowl of cornflakes... under 1000 kcal and a lot more fun than kale and salmon 

I have mentioned this before but I met Stamos in 2012 and he was a self centered, shallow man but he was very pretty. Kind of guy who hits on you, not because he thinks you are remotely pretty (he didn’t) but because hitting on you validates how attractive he is... it didn’t work on me and he found it very disarming.

Roast chicken and asparagus soup today, when it is asparagus season we binge on homemade soup, it is easy and delicious
