Eat regular meals and masturbate
1. The Friend asked me a few days ago not to comment on my blog on what she says or does other than something very general like where we went for a trip. It was quite difficult for me to accept that but it quickly became obvious that I have no choice but to get…

Is Boris Johnson autistic?
https://www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/politics/boris-johnson-bus-pass-pensioners-warm-b2070395.html The above is a link to an article about a senior citizen who’s struggling financially and Boris’ comment on it. To make it easier for you I copied and paste a few lines. In an interview on ITV’s Good Morning Britain the prime minister was told of a 77-year-old pensioner who rode the bus…

I got called a troll today (refugees will get benefits)
I’m spending significant amount of time on Facebook groups dedicated to help refugees. I will continue my observation of British public and will keep posting what I’ve noticed. Today I saw a post from a lady who was upset because ‘her’ refugees changed their mind on the last minute and said they’re not coming. She…

Another thing I don’t understand (£350)
The British are currently arguing about the £350 that the government gives towards hosting Ukrainian refugees. Some of them are calling the government ‘shitty’ and claim it’s not enough. Obviously it’s not much, if they rent the room out privately they would get twice as much for two people (depending on the location) and some…

Disappointed
Some British are really complaining on Facebook that they can’t find a refugee, their messages don’t get answered and stuff. ‘I contacted 40 people and nothing’ one said. Why don’t you just move on in hope that at least the refugees have enough choices? In another post Polish lady who is helping an Ukrainian mum…

British supremacy
https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/science-environment-60708712 I read the above article today and was absolutely shocked! It’s about black chemistry professor who had his every single application for funding or research turned down! I could not believe that. I guess, because I’ve never seen British person being rude to someone who is black, I assumed racism doesn’t really exist. I…

‘I can’t afford it’ – glass is always half empty if you’re in the UK
I already made a short post about it yesterday, where I said that British public judge success by the amount of debt someone has. Obviously, that is not official and you’re not going to read about it on BBC, but this is what people really seem to think. I’m sure there are people here who…

How do we define success?
I found this article while looking for some information about how to be authentic. The article states that our society measures success by the amount of savings one have. Psychology Today is an American website so possibly things are different over there? From what I see, British society measures success by the amount of debt…

I’ve been chucked out of a conversation (and I’m having a meltdown)
Ok, so I’m back home now, at 22.20, after a short shift in a supported living place. Suppoted living is where a person with disabilities lives in their own place instead of the care home and they have staff coming in. I was there with another lady, very lively and chatty, and I actually liked…

British public and dieting
I don’t have a tag for dieting on my blog, all the posts about dieting and my relationship with food go under physical health. I wonder whether I should create a separate tag for that to make it look like it’s important? If you read my blog regularly you may know that I was overweight…
