It's not that there isn't enough money to end poverty, it's that there's not enough money to satisfy the billionaires.

When I met my spouse we used to sit up all night talking, interrupting ourselves, each other, going on tangents & having fun tracing the conversation back to whatever we started talking about. Excited that the chats never got old or boring. 13 years later we still talk like this. ADHD love. #adhd

Study begun pre-COVID finds remote work increased sleep by 1/2 hr/night, decreased commute by 4.5 hr/week replaced with work, family & leisure and led to healthier eating. Remote and hybrid employees report higher job satisfaction and well-being. farmingdale-observer.com/2025/05/16/s...

Today is the International Day Against Homophobia, Biphobia, Intersexism & Transphobia. I stand with LGBTQIA+ folk and communities. The world needs us to challenge discrimination & demand equal human rights now more than ever. #IDAHOBIT #lgbtqia+ #humanrights #equality #IDAHOBIT25

You know it’s really hard reaching out to a therapist for the first time. Just a reminder if you’re thinking of talking to someone, if going private or self referred you are a client paying for a service & it’s ok to shop around until you think you would be comfortable working with that person.

Ireland has internment camps. Once they were the magdalene laundries and the Mother & Baby homes. Now they are the direct provision centers. #speirgorm #Irishpolitics

So apparently I’m the “king of the world”. So says my 2 year old.

My 2 year old puts a paw patrol into his Mr Potato Head and tells me “surprise, it’s pregnant!” 🥹 Where do kids get this stuff?! There are definitely no pregnancies that I know of!

When you’re at a conference and disclose to your breakout group that your neurodivergent so might process a little differently… to just click when you discover by pure coincidence everyone in the group is ND! Love it! #neuroscope #neurodivergent #coincidences

How does a penguin build a house? Igloos it together. See what I did there?

First day of EMDR training today. A proper full on intense course. I’m looking forward to adding new techniques to my trauma work toolkit, especially not heavily reliant on talking! #emdr #trauma #therapy

every gender transition is a statement in favor of human possibility and freedom and i’m tired of hearing it talked about like it’s some kind of disease

I didn’t need iron during pregnancy my levels were that high. In perimenopause I’ve IDA (iron deficiency anemia). Explains the chronic fatigue symptoms. Get your levels checked. It could make a considerable difference!

Im 8 years married today! It feels like no time at all. I guess that’s a good sign! #marriage #couplesgoals #relationship

Nothing new for those who know how damaging our system is. There is a vast difference in the WPATH recommendations and the reality. We need to do and be better. www.thejournal.ie/investigates...

Did y'all know that before the crowbar was invented, crows just drank at home 🥴🥴🤣🤣 Happy Sunday y'all

Vaccines don’t cause autism but they do prevent measles. A registry is not at all about science or healthcare. #autistic #autism #eugenics

I know some adults who were told to be “tested for autism” in Ireland before receiving gender affirming care. Intersecting minority identities need to be protected not demonized. The world is broken. Not trans or ND folx.

If you’re anti immigrant, anti trans and anti vaccination and think “woke” will ruin the world we will just never be friends. That’s all.

'Protesting' because they are letting 'unvetted men' into the country who are 'raping people' and meanwhile, their hero is actual rapist Conor McGregor.....

Anti-fascists counter looks amazing 💚💚✊️💚💚 Gardai out in force too.

I made an amazing dinner tonight and didn’t photograph it. Too busy…cooking, eating, cleaning. But I swear twas yum #dinner #chef #cooking #adhd

Eight year old: Who is the pope? Me: Begins to explain… Eight year old, interrupting: “It turns out I don’t care about that.”

I was this day old when I discovered it isn’t “sit boo-boo sit, good dog” 🥹😂 #childhood #memory #80s

Im sure the road to menopause must be much more difficult for those with PMDD. (Bracing myself) #pms #pmdd #menopause #crone #menstrualhealth #mentalhealth #periods

Every couple of months there’s a new level up. This time it’s itchy scalp! Thank you perimenopause, the gift that keeps on giving. #perimenopause #menopause #health #hormones #symptoms #mentalhealth

I guess if I don’t know something it doesn’t exist? Wow.
