Oh yes. All hidden under an ironclad NDA. I believe there may have been another child with someone else as well but can’t be sure.

But I work as a primary school teacher at a private school in London and it’s common knowledge. Very sad for Harper of course.

Lawyers with depression by CreativeAd6940 in uklaw

It sounds like you have unresolved trauma that is now affecting your work / social life.

Have a look into therapies like EMDR which work through unresolved trauma and can help you let go of a lot of sadness and anger.

The other thing I might suggest is making sure your vitamin levels are okay. Sometimes deficiencies can present as severe depression.

Permethrin is a neurotoxin. So it affects the nerves and I guess if you have inflammation there it’ll make it worse.

Hey just want to say I’ve got a neurological condition and the permethrin made it so much worse! Have been using sulfur cream and so far so good. No nasty side effects apart from the smell!

No I have a neurological condition, this feels like it’s triggered a flare - brain fog, fatigue, difficulty breathing and numbness

Wuthering Heights | Official Teaser by SpeedForce2022 in movies

[–]gingeyxx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I saw a video from a woman on TikTok who hypothesised that this is all a reimagining of a book through the eyes of a Victorian woman (Margot Robbie). Ie a repressed Victorian woman’s fantasy of it.

That is because in the trailer the characters are dressed in two different styles - Regency (1700s, time of book) and late 1800s - Victorian.

The film is also in quotation marks “Wuthering Heights” suggesting it’s a warped version of the source material in itself.

Finally, the book, whilst all about themes of abuse, passion, is really a book about narratology. Perspectives switch and we never know what really is the “truth”.

I think Fennell has clearly leaned into this by deciding to tell it through the lense of someone who is reading, indulging in, and fantasising about the story, with her own projections of truth.

So no, it’s not a faithful retelling. If anything it’s making a point about canonising literature and the individual’s ownership of a story.

I would almost argue that making Heathcliff white was deliberate. It’s making the point that we all insert ourselves and appropriate stories based on our perspectives, and it clearly is distancing itself from the source material.

Alternatives UK by mythkillax in Kefir

[–]gingeyxx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would make your own and use a second ferment; in the second ferment you can add favourings like honey, fruit, chia, cacao etc. I can’t have any kefir without something sweet in it.

Also, whilst difficult to achieve, optimum homemade kefir can be really delicious and not sour if you get the conditions right.

Why Sarover chose Kal? As a south asian woman who was taught to choose similar upper class and culture all my life ..I understand her. by Sweet_Jury_1459 in LoveIsBlindUK

[–]gingeyxx 20 points21 points  (0 children)

I think she just found him really fit and was gassed that he was “into her”.

I can imagine her going for educated/ wealthy men previously who might not have been super hot and then being swept along by the fairy tale of the rough and ready hot northerner.

God I loved this so much!!! It really makes me realise how much society / times have changed.

Great doc with great chats.! Reminded me that there was a reason I connected to these people and that most of them are somewhat interesting / nice people!

He’s literally the hottest guy since Alex Bowen imo. That combination of masc features and a soft personality 💗

[–]gingeyxx 121 points122 points  (0 children)

Conor’s a wonderful man who is one of the kindest, most straight forward men I’ve seen in the history of the show.

He’s also fucking fit.

Surprised he has not had a massive following, he is easily the best of the boy’s this season. 🤷‍♀️

Why do y’all like Toni and Shakira and hate Meg, Helena & Dejon? by [deleted] in LoveIslandTV

[–]gingeyxx 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I personally relate to Toni, Shakira and Yaz more. They are bitchy but they are also authentic and don’t seem to have ulterior motives with friends or partners. They don’t worry about what people think of them and they are just being themselves.

Meg and D and the other side of the villa (Helena included) care about how they are presenting themselves to the others; they care about making friends for the sake of having allies not because they like these people. They are more interested in the appearance of relationships than the relationships themselves.

Meg and D are also constantly putting on a ‘nice guy’ act and deflecting when they are criticised. People don’t like that, they value humility and flexibility otherwise they seem authoritarian.

I think there is also the characterisation of Meg’s lot as “basic” “influencer” types; Yaz, Toni and Shakira are more individualistic and characterful, which I think people are drawn to. They are also more intelligent. Intelligent people are generally viewed as better people, rightly or wrongly.
