As a woman in tech, I don’t want to be working in a professional working environment where T-shirts like this are allowed. There’s no women in this room at all.
Spaces where women are welcome are being reduced so much, it’s hard

I hear you. My former in-laws did some 'gardening' and, without permission, ripped up all of the well-researched, child-friendly plants I'd planted in my garden five weeks before my son was born. I'd wanted the garden to be neat and ready. I still remember the shock of entering

It was vandalism. The plants were ripped up and just dumped in a pile. I had got plants to encourage bees and butterflies, thinking of future experiences.
If a random person had done it, I'd have been calling the police.
There was simply no need for it at all.
@sm_kaylor
Growing up, our home number was very similar to the Samaritans so we got calls day and night from people about to end their life. We never told them that they’d dialled the wrong number. I remember my Dad, sitting on the stairs through the night, trying to talk people around.

💢That crosses so many boundaries. Sometimes in-laws simply want to upset you, because the power balance changes somewhat when you have a child. I hate people sometimes.

@sm_kaylor
It just seemed to insensitive to tell people that they’d got the wrong number and we were always worried that, if we did, it might push them over the edge. So, we took the calls.
The Samaritans changed their number so we stopped getting calls.
@DoctorMayJay
The pharmacists can 'shame' people with MH issues by confirming your details and then announcing that they will need to call the Doctor because the 'dose is very high'.
There are so many ways that people with MH illnesses are shamed in public. Plus, the insinuations that they

I didn't see my Dad throughout his chemotherapy and his battle with cancer throughout the pandemic. He's 70 years old, worked all his life, paid his taxes and he got through that on his own. It was a deep sacrifice for both of us.
