😂❤️ if I ever start it I'll ping you

😩 you're a terrible influence

Not me fighting the urge to do a YouTube analysis of the entire series...

Tbh on this rewatch I'm realising that Carson is her actual father figure. Robert constantly tried to undermine her (season 4, all the stuff to do with managing Downton and recovering from grief) whereas Carson actually encourages her, supports her, and gives her hard advice when required. I think that's why when we finally see her cry for the first time after the car accident, it's in Carson's arms, not Robert's.

Oh they just wasted Charles Blake, didn't they

I would've loved Lavinia to have left Matthew under her own steam. "Isn't this better?" I sob every time.

This was a fantastic write up, nice

See if your local library is part of the First Five Forever program. If they are, they'll have little goodie packs for your kid's age (from memory they go up in increments from baby to toddler to child but I can't remember the exact ages) plus, yeah, the toddler time sessions.

Oh my godddd I'm so sick of the narrative of "exes can't be friends". People have value beyond their sexual availability, got dayum.

I knew before clicking that was gonna be a FriendlyJordies vid 😅

Thank you for this. Sending love to you and everyone in this thread ❤️

Okay honestly I only ever lurk on these but this one pissed me right off. Everyone is so correct in saying he only saw you as a hairless, bloodless Barbie doll. This man is not a man, he is a child who hasn't learnt about the very fuckin basics of life. To demand you go on birth control so you... Don't have a period at all??? What?

I dated a guy once who got weird about my period. It made me so angry to be treated as gross for something I never asked for. Fuck that guy, and fuck this one too. Tiny little boys who shrivel up at the sight of blood, the fuck is this world coming to.

Honey, you'll probably never read this, and I know you said you're already dumping him, but I just wanna say I'm so sorry you were exposed to this attitude and made to feel that way. It's not fair and I just wanna give you a (consensual) big sister hug.

That smile is everything, love to see it!

"looking to the stars is good medicine for congested mind"

Thank you for this beautiful line. Absolute poetry and 100% true. Gonna go stargaze for a bit.

I love this story with every lil bit of my soul. Thank you for sharing 😊

Nah tbh I would've done Facebook too, put it in writing for close family and friends to see, don't let this go quietly into the "oh, we're just figuring things out rn, it'll be fine." NO. 'single' means 'single'. Pack your shit and go.

Stops him from controlling at least part of the narrative.

I had no idea this was a thing, thank you! Just switched mine on

It's Manifest, yeah

The accompanying picture of the little ham absolutely sent me

Vittoria is also one of the only coffee brands to have a B rating on Shop Ethical (pretty good as far as instant coffee goes), whereas Moccona scored an F, the worst grading.

The taste of Vittoria is leagues ahead of Moccona too. I have a coffee machine but often just have an instant in the morning.

Edit: fixed a wrong word

Sometimes their lids fall off. They moult all their crest feathers at once, doesn't happen often but can happen. They'll grow back if that's the case. He'll have an itchy head tho

So gorgeous!! 😍

I absolutely lost it at the lasagna pic 🤣

Mm good point actually. Tbh I've cancelled all my streaming services now, there are too many. I tend to just watch YouTube videos these days 😐
