  • Its absolutely digusting, have always said it should be illegal to charge for parking at hospitals. At the very least free short term parking should be made available for urgent visits.

    My dad at the height of his illness drove himself to hospital and parked in the hospitals parking facilities, and I couldn’t get on a flight for two days and had no one in that area to help me. So I had to pay an insane parking fee, which made everything so much more stressful for me financially while I was in the middle of grieving for my dying dad.








  • Unlucky in love friend is losing their mind again, and I kind of feel bad because I think it’s honestly their fault. I’ve tried to be nice about how to approach the dating scene differently or maybe having some self reflection, but it’s clearly not getting through. They talk to these people for like weeks without a physical date and then completely meltdown when it all breaks down because they thought this person was “the one” in a long line of “the one’s”. I don’t know, I just think they have some issues that they perhaps need to work out or maybe I’m clueless in terms of online dating since I don’t do it, all my dates come from friends referrals or people I’ve met at some group thing.







  • One of my friends was just talking about Heartstopper and while I haven’t watched it because I just don’t really care for a show with a cast of teens, it got me thinking about how lucky young LGBT people are these days in terms of content they can watch and see themselves in. When myself and my generation were coming out and looking for media that represented us it was all very full on, and stuffed to the brim with sexual content, a lot of it truly dubious. My friends and I at the time just didn’t understand how incredibly damaging watching that stuff could be for us as teens. I don’t know, just got me deep into thinking about how not just myself but my friends maybe wouldn’t have engaged in some risky shit had we had shows and movies that showed healthy age appropriate stuff.

    Related off note, but I thought about the OG UK Queer as Folk, and how I thought 15 year old Nathan banging grown arse Stuart wasn’t that bad. Adult me is mortified, but I think about how those old shows were all my friends and I had so of course we thought yeah that’s how it is, that’s what we should want and how we should behave.

    I dont usually get deep on here, but I just can’t stop thinking about it now.
