It's a month (I think) since Diddles passed on.
I was home last week and I got my niece the Halo Jones comics, even though she might be a bit young for them
Was thinking of Diddles as Halo Jones was her Twitter name.
And this thing on the back really struck me as something good to say about...
It can be very easy to become trapped in a set of behaviours and thinking that become self-reinforcing
The voice telling you to ask for help can get drowned out, but it is the most important one
I'm very sorry, Sarah - I hope you're getting good support
In heaven, God will show you any celeb nudes you ask for. He's good like that.
Hopefully there are plenty of Sam Neill naked hairy pics up there in the cloud.
Diddles was a consistently warm, kind and funny presence on here and elsewhere.
Can't imagine what it's like for the people that knew and loved her, to have a bright light like that go out.

To me the problem goes to the core - the policing problem is just a festering boil because of an internal illness.
Asking not to be killed in the street is just...
To me they're a lot of people that were starved or poverty'd or industrial schooled or sexually shamed out of their own country and went to the US to do the best they could
Their descendants are taught to be proud they're Irish - just like the Italian kids and the Armenian kids and the Puerto...
My objection is to the Punch cartoon not you.
This is a timeline going back to 1606 and up to today written by a respected black commentator - it does not mention Ireland or the Irish, but it does mention the British and the Dutch; imperialist slave countries.
The cartoon is just a sneer at a...
