My commitment to child safety (Grok deep fake), and my horror on seeing this, means this is my last X post. See you on LinkedIn & in person. Where hopefully the world is safer, kinder, more constructive, and at the very VERY least, respectful. With love xxx #AppDeleted

IF I GET DEMENTIA….. I’d like my family to hang this wish list up on the wall where I live. I want them to remember these things. 1a. Every time you enter the room announce yourself. “Hi Dad - it’s Amanda.” NEVER ask- Do you know who I am??? That causes anxiety. • If I get dementia, I want my friends and family to embrace my reality. • If I think my spouse is still alive, or if I think we’re visiting my parents for dinner, let me believe those things. I’ll be much happier for it. • If I get dementia, don’t argue with me about what is true for me versus what is true for you. • If I get dementia, and I am not sure who you are, do not take it personally. My timeline is confusing to me. • If I get dementia, and can no longer use utensils, do not start feeding me. Instead, switch me to a finger-food diet, and see if I can still feed myself. • If I get dementia, and I am sad or anxious, hold my hand and listen. Do not tell me that my feelings are unfounded. • If I get dementia, I don’t want to be treated like a child. Talk to me like the adult that I am. • If I get dementia, I still want to enjoy the things that I’ve always enjoyed. Help me find a way to exercise, read, and visit with friends. • If I get dementia, ask me to tell you a story from my past. • If I get dementia, and I become agitated, take the time to figure out what is bothering me. • If I get dementia, treat me the way that you would want to be treated. • If I get dementia, make sure that there are plenty of snacks for me in the house. Even now if I don’t eat I get angry, and if I have dementia, I may have trouble explaining what I need. • If I get dementia, don’t talk about me as if I’m not in the room. • If I get dementia, don’t feel guilty if you cannot care for me 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It’s not your fault, and you’ve done your best. Find someone who can help you, or choose a great new place for me to live. With a bus and activities!! • If I get dementia, and I live in a dementia care community, please visit me often. • If I get dementia, don’t act frustrated if I mix up names, events, or places. Take a deep breath. It’s not my fault. • If I get dementia, make sure I always have my favorite music playing within earshot. • If I get dementia, and I like to pick up items and carry them around, help me return those items to their original place. • If I get dementia, don’t exclude me from parties and family gatherings. • If I get dementia, know that I still like receiving hugs or handshakes. • If I get dementia, remember that I am still the person you know and love.” ᴄᴏᴘʏ ᴀɴᴅ ᴘᴀsᴛᴇ in Honor of someone you know or knew who has dementia. In Honor of all those I know and love and lost who are fighting Dementia/Alzheimer’s.

A farmer couldn't attend his aunt’s funeral, so he put out heart-shaped food for his sheep so that she could see it from heaven.

@ThatEricAlper Kellogg’s Ricicles

What was discontinued, but you miss like hell and want to come back?

@ElonMuskAOC If you deliver to the UK, that would be great!

I just ordered 10 rose gold Teslas. I will be giving all of these away to followers tonight at 8pm PST! Like and comment to be entered into the raffle!

@stella_immanuel Research has improved. Plus, there are fewer people like you. So people sometimes, thankfully, feel able to be their true selves.

When I was a child, no one was autistic, vegan, gluten-free, or confused about their gender. What has changed?

Happiness can slip away because of unexpected events, but keep joy in your heart knowing that it will soon return. So don’t give up just keep smiling, it will bring you joy. Sending virtual hugs wrapped up with joy and happiness to those who need it! #HappinessDay❤️

@MrMrsHenryWales A bowl of nectarines saying ‘NECTARINES’ on it. Vanessa has now gone up stratospherically in my book!

@ThatEricAlper The ‘Cheers!’ theme tune 🍻

What's the best TV theme song of all time?

A care worker surprised a 94 yo veteran with a pillow of his wife’s face after seeing him sleeping with her photograph. ❤️🥰

#RetailMadeMe Yep! Working at #TheDisneyStore in #Meadowhall as a student in the late 90’s and year of the millennium, I was made to destroy returned plush, stationary and gifts because they preferred to get the money back from Head Office than donate to charity.

@FloellaBenjamin Thank you Floella! - This Playschool baby (me!) wishes you much love and comfort for 2025! You continue to bring joy and inspire others every day 💜

Wishing everyone a Happy New Year and hope 2025 brings peace, joy and happiness into your life. Sending virtual huge hugs and unconditional love to everyone to start off the year, especially to my #Playschool Babies ❤️

@pitchblacksteed As each series of Blackadder progressed, his social status decreased… whilst his intelligence increased. It was always meant to follow this pattern I believe… and it’s genius!

Poor old series 1 #Blackadder often gets a battering on here. I started this page because of my admiration for that series. It’s clear many fans hate it, some tolerate it and those with good taste love it. I say it’s a masterpiece. Fans, send me some love for S1.

@TwisterFilm I’ve met Emily. She is incredible. An amazing human who is supporting the very real and urgent need for life saving understanding. I hope she completely ignores your hate and knows she is surrounded by kindness and support for her authenticity. Deal with your misplaced anger.

1./ 🧵Trans Lobby Grifter$ If anyone tells you trans people are a marginalised minority tell them about Trans in the City. 300 of Britain's biggest firms support this powerful trans lobby group led by larping men like "Emily". Did anyone ever look less like an Emily? 1/13

Kids are a reflection of their parents ...

@1capplegate The world has it’s head in it’s hands Christina. 😞

@fesshole I fully endorse co-parenting. We get on well. We parent how we want. We share the week out according to our work/ social diaries. We have the best time with our kids because we’ve SLEPT and CHILLED and got work out of the way. It’s bliss!

I have a really good marriage but after meeting my divorced mates for a drink, it's made me think: half the week away from the kids, no dog, and not being told off for skid marks and leaving pots in sink. It could be more peaceful alone.

@PocketsWomenUK One for you 😘

@pitchblacksteed “Do you have someone special in your life?” “Yes. Me”

To many of us, #Blackadder is part of every day parlance. Which phrases from the show do you use yourself and when you do you use them? Example: When someone offers me a cup of tea, I say: "Yes, immediately!" You get the idea. Will RT the best ones.

@KatiePiper_ Katie… you are SO BEAUTIFUL and you have a universe of kindness around you. I cannot believe how very awful some people are 😡. But as you’ve already said, their comments say more about them then they do about you. You are loved. Never forget it. xx

After completing my run this morning, feeling already depleted because of my bad time, I opened my phone to this. I can handle most things, but sometimes it adds to an already heavy load you are carrying.
