The fact that among people who cling to outdated (maybe never truly in-date) tropes as leverage against you, there are people who know you better and acknowledge your value. And that counts for a lot more than the filler-noise of people who are determined to antagonise you for no real reason.

There are some weird people around these days, identifying as all sorts of things.

I was dating one who claimed to be a wheelie bin.

I had to finish it, I couldn't remember if I was supposed to take her out Wednesday or Thursday.

I honestly don't know.

My Dad is getting a Tattoo today, his excitement about it is going to be cool.

I saw two little kids playing on their bikes outside their house yesterday. Must have been about 6 years old.

Made me smile.

Reminded me the innocence of childhood and my own childhood, which is now a very long time ago.

…strangely I was thinking also of how gorgeous it is to hear/see children and families together/playing and chattering and picnic-ing together etc in contrast to COVID times, when we didn’t have that….we were sitting by the river one day in a part where families gather and all paddle etc and it was such an uplifting thing……until we started to melt in the sun and then we had to go seek darkness and shade…..

Yeah I love seeing families together, young and old enjoying themselves. It's like the Britain of old.

…it really is, everything that many of us recall our own childhood nostalgia to be and what those divisive media’s and governments are trying to hide from us…but we see them……just so joyful watching families/friends enjoying their summer…

The first exhale of “hey, I’m going to be okay” in the process of grief.

Standing (and basking) in your own light, not someone-else’s shadow.

Maybe for you. Either way, I thought your level of trolling would stop at baiting to derail the thread of a beloved member who contributed positively way more to this forum than you ever could. I thought you’d have a bit more respect for the dead.

I’m definitely not the bad guy here. Kerry was worth ten of you. You’re disgusting beyond words, even if some people (for whatever reason) think you’re worth giving the time of day to. I’m definitely not one of the people who think that, and I have no reason to be. You’re such a joke of a person.

My Cat being so immature for her age can make me smile.

I'm glad that she's never lost that youthful spirit.

And I've already mentioned my Dad's optimism when it comes to his recent interest in Tattoos.

Tbh, I don't know if there really is anything else that I've been able to smile about recently.

The news has been depressing as ****, and whilst I love the rest of my family, they haven't done anything recently to raise a smile from me.

I'm sure things will change soon though.

A burp that’s been holding in on your throat a while finally being released. Cathartic.
