Honesty is the best policy. During the first lockdown, I was beating myself up for not being a 10/10 Dad, 10/10 husband and 10/10 businessman. Looking at it objectively, I'd set impossible targets. With Lockdown 2 starting tomorrow, don't fall into my trap. Be kind to yourself.
The final preview of this week's episode is extremely pertinent, as @Real_Rob_Warner talks us through how difficult he's found working from home during #COVID19 Listen to the full episode here ⬇️⬇️ pod.fo/e/a4c56 #WheresTheTalkingLads

It’s like Bernie Sanders hacked her account in an attempt to make everyone socialists with one tweet
Replying to @KimKardashian
After 2 weeks of multiple health screens and asking everyone to quarantine, I surprised my closest inner circle with a trip to a private island where we could pretend things were normal just for a brief moment in time.

A must read re: messages marketed to all children, and if it doesn't immediately slap you in the face, then it drip drips into your psyche.

FOUND: A lost unicorn at Heathrow Airport Terminal 2. Lost & Found was closed so they’re currently safe & sound in a temporary London home. Seems very well loved so would love to reunite with owner if possible. RTs appreciated! Can we make some magic happen?

Nearly 600 new followers today 😳😳 I didn't see that coming... The support has been amazing! I fear we have attracted a negative label, on a topic that we purposely steered clear of tbh- until now. Happy to debate, but won't shut other women down with slurs like "terf." No way.

What a difference a few years makes! It might seem silly to hail colouring books - on sale in @Tesco - as progressive, but before the #LetBooksBeBooks campaign, these would almost certainly have been pink/blue & heavily stereotyped on both sides. This makes us v. happy indeed.

Dear Government, If you tell children worried about climate change to stay in school and do their work, have the decency to do the same when it’s debated in Parliament #ThereIsNoPlanetB theguardian.com/politics/201…

“Do you know” says d1 in her bath, “there were 12 people on the Moon and they were always always ALWAYS men.” She thinks for a bit. “Maybe I will be the first girl”. I wouldn’t bet against it

Gender-targeted marketing is about consumerism & maximising profits, but it doesn’t do kids themselves any favours. Here’s to a world where nobody blinks an eye at the boy who likes My Little Pony or the girl who likes football - let THEM choose #LetToysBeToys
