M&S have wiped the floor with John Lewis in the Christmas advert wars this year. John Lewis might as well take the decorations down and go home. This isn’t just a Christmas advert. This is an M&S Christmas advert. 🎄

Wonderful thoughts from Henri Matisse (d otd 1954): "You can't help getting old, but you can help becoming old." "To look at something as though we had never seen it before requires great courage.” And the famous: "There are flowers everywhere for those who want to see them..."

why is the single person council tax discount only 25% & not 50%? Being a single earner with all the bills fucking sucks

This. The Episcopal Church's bishop of Europe, Mark Edington, on the unrest of student protests in Paris. You don't have to be religious to agree with him. Students are rightly worried about their futures. [recorded at the American Cathedral in Paris]

I love how they found a way to use a blood test for men’s prostate cancer, but I still have to get my titties slammed in a press and my cervix scraped with a brush...

One of the most ridiculous things about Britain is that in order to see a GP you have to describe your specific medical issue to the receptionist, who does not have any medical qualifications, so they can determine if you need to see a doctor or not.

Just back from holiday. How come most people still haven’t realised that if you stand a yard back from the baggage carousel, everyone can see the bags, then step forward when theirs appears? Instead, they crowd the edge like their suitcase might make a break for it. 😳

Bir insanın ne okuduğunu kitaplığından çok, konuşurken anlarsınız. Çünkü bazı insanlar okuduklarını anlatmaz; düşünürken onları kullanır. Sohbetin bir yerinde mutlaka bir kitap,bir yazar, bir fikir kendini belli eder. Bence asıl birikim budur: Gösterilmeyen ama hissedilen.

While listening to council meetings in Montreal, local mayor Sue Montgomery decided to knit in red when men spoke and in green when women spoke, when similar numbers of both attended. Day 1 results.... #WomensArt

On paper, I’m in my 50’s & it’s really confusing… In my head, I’m 35. At a concert, I’m 25 After 10pm, I’m 72. Getting up off the floor, I’m 93. When someone makes me mad, I’m 2 BUT- When an 80’s song comes on, I’m 17, drunk in a field, & my mom thinks I’m at a sleepover 🤪
