Torn between sympathy and hilarity 😂
Hi at @parkinn this may be quite long, but I just wanted to publicly review my recent stay. I’d like to start this with a simple question. Are you sniffing glue?

Women, remember this man's name - Danny Kruger. He doesn't believe women should have an absolute right to bodily autonomy. He would prefer politicians make these decisions for you. He wants it "debated." This is how it started in the States.
Tory MP Danny Kruger says he doesn’t agree that “women have an absolute right to bodily autonomy".

Honest tweet now. This account is run by frontline NHS staff. There’s just 3 of us. We have tried our best to get out what is happening on the ground. But we are completely exhausted. If you support what we are doing pls will you follow & RT this to your followers? Thank you 🙏🏻

When I was in an induced coma, night after night nurses watched over me to see that I didn't need emergency attention. In the morning they wrote me a 'letter' which went into a 'Patient Diary' which they gave me when I came round. This is only worth 1%?

A hotel in Shrewsbury has opened its doors to rough sleepers throughout the Covid lockdowns - and is once again looking after the most vulnerable this winter to help them find shelter off the streets. For many, it's been completely life-changing. @CathJacobNews | #5News

John Waters, the ‘Pope of Trash’, has donated his treasures to @artbma. The director and film-maker has donated around 375 works to his hometown institution—and will have a pair of toilets named after him theartnewspaper.com/news/joh…

It’s disgusting that the government is not supporting our local public museums and galleries - instead giving bailouts to massive theatres in London that are built around an economy of exclusivity
We are sad to announce that Birmingham Museums Trust has entered a period of redundancy consultations as a result of the coronavirus pandemic. Around half of our staff have been placed at risk of redundancy. Read more: birminghammuseums.org.uk/blo…
