Don’t ignore a change in bowel habits/symptoms… Go to your GP and if still not satisfied, buy the bowel kit from the chemist.

@aparachick Very important reminder, I'm sorry for your loss ❤️❤️❤️

Today my brother would have been 76. He had bowel cancer at the age of 45. 12 inches of bowel removed. All gone, so we thought. At the age of 50 he was diagnosed with tumours in his lungs and brain. Within 2 months he had passed, just after New Year. 1/

@KeruboSk RED FLAG, DON'T DO IT

My boyfriend and I are planning to buy a house together after dating for 3 years. He earns significantly more than I do, so he’d be contributing about 70% of the down payment. Because of that, he wants the house to be only in his name. He says it’s just “fair” based on the numbers, but we’d both be living there, splitting bills, and building a life together. I’ve been watching a lot of relationship content about equity vs equality, and it made me realize things don’t always have to be 50/50 but this feels like I’d have no security at all. He said if we ever broke up, he’d “do the right thing,” but that doesn’t really reassure me. My friends say don’t move in unless my name is on it. His friends apparently think I’m being entitled. Now I feel stuck between trusting him and protecting myself. Is this a red flag I’m trying too hard to rationalize?

@aparachick @VicGovDH Yes!!

@VicGovDH Can we please also have communication on Covid and how to best avoid it? Like we used to get regularly from you?

There has been an update to active public exposures sites for measles cases in Victoria. People who have visited an active site should monitor for symptoms of measles and follow health advice. Full list of exposure sites: go.vic.gov.au/468pAeM

It actually bums me out… We have the resources to fix our society, stop our reliance on fossil fuels, and feed every person in the country. But we don’t… because it would mess with the money of a tiny group of people. Like… millions struggle so a handful can stay comfortable. That’s insane when you really think about it.

Great question 👇

The desire to silence and shrink outspoken women is alive and well, and as self serving as ever.

SHE REPORTED NHS FRAUD. THEY GAVE HER CANCER AND A P45 Sharmila Chowdhury @sharmilaxx spent 30 years working in the @NHS without a single disciplinary mark. Then she caught two consultant radiologists at Ealing Hospital NHS Trust billing the NHS for sessions they were spending at a private hospital down the road. Double-dipping on public money. Straightforward fraud. She reported it. To her line manager. To the Medical Director. To the HR Director. To Counter Fraud. To the Chief Executive. To Number 10. To the Treasury. She had a paper trail so solid that ITV later sent undercover cameras to the hospital and caught the same consultants still at it years later, taking cash from patients for private ultrasounds inside an NHS building. The Trust's response? They sacked her. On fabricated counter-allegations. The man who raised those allegations later sent an email signed off "0800-F***-YOU-B****." He received a 'Top Mentor' award from the Trust that same year. Sharmila won at tribunal. She won her appeal. The judge asked the Trust to reinstate her. The Trust said no. She was blacklisted across the NHS. One job offer was withdrawn the moment they found out who she was. Her legal costs hit £130,000. She developed breast and lung cancer, which her doctors believe is linked to the years of sustained stress. The consultants kept their jobs. George Osborne couldn't get involved. Andrew Lansley couldn't get involved. David Cameron couldn't get involved. Because everyone decided it was an "employment matter." A proven fraud case, covered by ITV, the Guardian, Daily Mail and Channel 4, and the official position of Her Majesty's Government was: not our problem. This is what the UK does to people who try to protect public money. It destroys them and promotes the people they were trying to stop.

@BetterEarth2024 @BarryHunt008 @silentanb We did it for 30 hours 🫠 worth it

@BarryHunt008 @silentanb Have avoided all long haul for 6 years now. Have been on a plane 2X for 1.5 hours. Wore a mask the entire time, including the airport. Will not take the risk of getting SARS-COV-2

#3 is wrong Cabin air in commercial airliners is marketed as clean & safe But it's not Far from it Just the opposite The two places where wearing a respirator is a must? Hospitals & airliners 😷

@EmergencyBK Ugh sorry you have had to deal with that, in addition to everything else 😪

The lies below were recently posted on a private Facebook Community Group about me... 😂 My responses & some other 'lovely' contributors are in part 2/ to 4/ below.... 1/4

No matter how many times you explain 3rd grade math to these crusty idiots, they'll never understand. Oh, you saved for a house at a time when rent, gas, and food cost fucking nothing? Very impressive.

@AlboMP Finally, Dump Trump, he's a lost cause. We can fix relations when they have a new president down the track. For now you need to do what is best for Australia

Now more than ever, our relationships with our neighbours matter. Tonight I spoke with Premier Li Qiang of the People's Republic of China. We talked about the importance of energy security, and how we can work together for the benefit of our nations and our region. We will continue to engage in dialogue to maintain our stable and constructive relationship.

So @VirginAustralia won't extend my travel credit 12 months even though I literally cannot travel in the near future due to circumstances outside my control because "terms & conditions" Their compassion is underwhelming

Good morning 🍀…

Out of 10 men, 1 makes a sexual joke at a woman, 2 laugh, 3 fake a chuckle to fit in and 4 stay silent. None of them speak up. Later, 9 of them still believe they're the"good guys." But from the woman's perspective, the laughter, the silence, the looking away, it all creates the same environment. So when women say"most men are the same," this is what they mean: not that every man harasses women, but that most men help protect the system that does.

Australia right now. A government with a massive majority – that basically represents no one and is actively doing things the majority are vehemently against - while the people get squeezed from every direction.

You can really tell America is winning this war when the president panic posts “open the fuckin’ strait, you crazy bastards” at 5 am on Easter Sunday along with an extension on their deadline

Exactly how does Israel bombing residential villages in Lebanon prevent Iran from having nuclear weapons? Explain it to me like I am 5.
