@helendewitt I remember your words about it (of course!) but the ad itself is weird to me...I think I'm just not familiar with all the references/parodies

@fesshole Strong start to a marriage when you can't communicate needs to each other. "I know this might be tough to hear, but I need a bit more alone time than you're giving me. What can we do so that you feel loved and I get the space I need?"

Recently got married and it's lovely and all, but my wife will not leave me alone. She sits right next to me, walks to the bin with me, goes to bed the exact same time as me. I've booked a hotel for a night and said it's a work trip so I can just have a night of silence.

@hansmollman In forty years what is currently trendy will seem old, and people will not be able to comprehend how we are thought it was a young person's thing

@PhilipRalph9 Yes, drama schools actively encourage the myth-making that you will be one of the special ones who actually manage to be prestigiously successful. You will be like the famous alums.

This is a huge unaddressed issue in the arts. Arguably much of the training on offer is making money from young people who will never be able to sustain themselves whilst experienced people are struggling to survive in a shrinking industry.
Annemarie Lewis Thomas@ALThomasMD

These findings aren’t a surprise to anybody. What is a surprise is how many people we’re training for a blatantly oversaturated industry that can’t even begin to support the people already invested in it 🤷🏻‍♀️

You don’t realise until you’re really ill how difficult it is to work in a career with absolutely no support structures at all

TIL that in the original German, "doppelganger" is the same in both singular and plural. Isn't that delicious? Not the same in the feminine form, but we can't have everything. #LanguageLovers

Well, I've done it. I've done the thing you're sposed to do. I've forced myself to write even when I don't feel like it and now I hate the work and I hate myself and it's all terrible and maybe just maybe there might be something salvageable in it when I get back to it tomorrow.

@thepursuinglife This also makes me furious, as do the reply guys in your comments. THE ABSTINENCE MESSAGE IS THE HARM. And when it's a source of trauma, people who weren't traumatised debating the finer points of theology in the comments is infuriating.

@janjowen Anything by Sarah Bessey or Rachel held Evans. I also love Anne Lamont and how she writes about God and her beliefs.

@janjowen I found "Leaving the Fold" helpful. Looks at the psychological impact. Also "Pure" by Linda Kay Klein specifically about purity culture.
