The most important thing you can offer a friend who is grieving: no judgment. #grief #memories healgrief.org

#Grief is not linear. Itโs totally normal if youโre feeling strong and confident in your healing and then all of a sudden you feel like youโve had the wind knocked out of you because you miss your person so much. Grief comes up in unexpected ways. Be gentle with yourself.

Tonight BBC 4 is screening a repeat of the Ken Loach "Cathy Come Home".
The story of a young couple's descent into poverty & homelessness.
It was a screening of this that drew me and many others into working in- and campaigning for- more social housing.
Sadly
Nothing has changed.

โCould you visit me in dreams? That would cheer me.
Sweet to see friends in the night, however short the time.โ

Ah, the same Simon Danczuk who, in December 2015, Danczuk's had his membership suspended, following reports he had exchanged explicit messages with a 17-year-old girl. He's a Reform cheerleader now.

To every soul reading this, I wish I could hold your hand for a moment, just long enough to remind you that you matter. Some of you are carrying battles no one sees, and I hope life finds a thousand gentle ways to remind you that you are not alone ๐ค

Democrats will have a 56-seat majority in the US Senate. We need to use it. Pass Medicare for All.

No B.S. time.
11 House Democrats missed the Hegseth impeachment vote.
It lost by 7.
The excuse? Traffic.
Try that one with your boss. Or your customers.
Winners leave early. Losers explain late.
You knew the vote was coming. Show up or step aside.
This is unfuckingacceptable.

Lara and I normally keep our work apart, as we like our private life to stay private. As a one-off, though, she interviewed me for her new Your Body of Evidence podcast
We talked about my steps obsession, & more importantly, how my wearable made me get checked out for what turned out to be a heart issue. She then talks to a top cardiologist about when fitness trackers can and canโt help.
You might enjoy it. Search โLara Your Body of Evidenceโ on YouTube, Apple, Spotify or wherever you get your podcasts.

Is it because you are highly paid and don't care about those who aren't?
I'm the shadow disability and welfare minister, and I have ADHD.
