    Calling suicide the coward’s way out is fucking disgusting. Don’t think you realise how dark a place people need to be when they do it.

      I wasnt going to respond to the heat,I've said what I said but I didnt mean suicide is the cowards way out. I have the utmost pity for anyone who feels that's their only choice. I meant cowards way out in not dealing with the Court case and charges which she should have faced up to. I wouldnt want anyone to find themselves in a suicidal position, have lost friends to it and hope I never have a family member suffer that way

          Robbed off fb but true....

          Imagine having a very heated argument with your partner which leads to something being flung across a room in a blind rage - a mistake! Yes it’s a mistake and we are all guilty of them, maybe not violence but I will honestly admit to having had illogical angry arguments with the ones I love and regret even the argument following it.

          Now imagine it being plastered all over social media, news outlets and your life and character being broken down piece by piece by millions. Your sensitivities being made into cruel memes. Your broken fore lorn sad face being plastered over every newspaper, website and magazine berating you to be a monster.

          Before you cruelly judge, insult, comment or express your unwarranted opinion, look at the pain, suffering and hurt on this beautiful girls face and think about the potential consequences.

          Kindness is a gift to everyone that can afford it and we all have the riches to be kind. Use your social media to lift one another up, to value people’s differences, to forgive what you may not understand that might confuse your own feelings.

          Caroline Flack should not be dead at 40 years old. Her life is no less valuable than yours or mine and she was a talented beautiful woman who like us all possess our demons.

                  Not sure i agree on the GAA being the better governing body due to I) not taking discipline seriously (how many players get off on appeal, and II) not sorting out the bloody fixture mess.

                  I though it was utter shite too.

                    I feel really sorry for her, and liked her a lot, the whole situation is very sad.

                    I would say though that what she was accused of is..

                              I thought Uncut Gems was absolutely fantastic. Frenetic pace of the movie IS gambling as a life. Was knocked out by the film.

                              On gambling, I wrote this on a docket while waiting almost half an hour in a PP to collect A Shane Ross not to get elected special market bet.

                              Is there anything better,
                              Than the smell of fish on Moore Street,
                              Depends,
                              Of course,
                              On who placed, won, or fell at the first.
                              Life rolls by,
                              Or should that say slips,
                              An 18/1 winner only fastens

                                I'm not getting involved in the overall piece but you've made two statements now that need to be picked up on.

                                Firstly saying he sent a valentines message so the abuse "it can't have been that bad" this is a completely false position (not specifically in this case but in general) people who are being domestically abused are often the last ones to admit the scale of the problem. They are brainwashed and beaten down until they believe everything is their fault and despite the best efforts of friends and family around them they will often forgive or even exonerate the abuser of blame completely.

                                Secondly, this isn't the first time she has been accused of being violent towards a partner. She had a history of lashing out at people so suggesting it was a 'once off heated argument' is disingenuous at best.

                                Domestic abusers should be called out for what they are, and they should be offered no opportunity to hide.

                                edit:

                                I don't know if the allegations are true or not, but given the fact that there is more than one accuser, the elements of the story that have leaked and the willingness of the police to file charges based on the evidence they had it's fair to assume there is some truth to it.

                                          Say that putative coalition does somehow hold for its full term and we enjoy continued economic growth with improvements in service delivery, better environmental policy. And the next election is held on a Thursday in May.

                                            Liverpool are having such a good season that Gerrard might get a retrospective winners medal from 2014 if Man City get docked points from a Premier League investigation into the financial doping from 2012-16.

                                            Is LuckyLlyod a Liverpool fan? And what is he going to do with his 3rd wish from his genie?

                                                  100% on the fact the the victims are usually the most supportive. It is no secret I was a victim of DV in my previous relationship. I cannot condone what Caroline did, we can't always cry it was mental health issue to make everything ok again. What about the boyfriend? I am sure the DV wasn't a bed of roses for him. The Court the day before had them pressing on with the charges, so even with HIS support, it was going ahead. So there must be more to this that we all know.

                                                  AN abuser will always make you feel you did something wrong, if you hadn't acted this way, it wouldn't have happened. Many times the police have been called by neighbours, for the victim to say it is all ok.

                                                  Just recently here in Malta, a man killed his partner. She had tried to do something before, but without the support of the police (very common here for DV cases) nothing was done and now she is dead.

                                                  Violence is NOT ok, no matter what.

                                                      It'll be interesting to see if the volume of voters decrease in the event of a 2nd election.

                                                      In all likelihood though, people may feel more compelled to vote than the first time around.

                                                      I'm not convinced a Saturday made much of a difference and not that it's a fair comparison but I'd be inclined to think the numbers will go up in response if anything.

                                                          Yeah about sums it up for me.

                                                          Just erratic throughout the whole thing.

                                                          Sandler is quite good too.

                                                          I can understand how people would dislike it and feel that its frantic nature makes it seem disjointed.

                                                              Whats with these orderly single file queues at the bookie counters all about these days like its a post office or something!?. It cringes me out.

                                                              Before it was you just go up shoulder to shoulder placing the docket down on any available free counter space whether there is someone there first or not. The quicker you rush and slam the docket on the counter would indicate urgency or a race just about to go off and this would be picked up by staff and acted on. This new docile queuing is just helping make bookie staff act more sedentary like post office staff.

                                                              Patient poem writing queue wankers like jbravado are just perpetuating this problem.

Unique experience as cowboys from mexico, canada, brazil, australia and two US teams competed. There was a distinct difference in bulls named armageddon, death from below, satans breath and Buddy's Pet, Top Down, Peep Show. It was a great experience. As an aside there's something special about milfy cowgirls. Two competing camps of clothing, there's the tight jean shorts and small top with boots or the skirts with small tops and boots and then a flowy open cardigan thing.

It starts tomorrow at midday and runs through to 18:30. One hour teaching presentation, one-hour research presentation, one-hour presentation to the directors. That's a lot of fucking material to prep.

                                                                                                  The worse thing is that it starts with lunch. Ugh. 90 mins of small talk while trying not to dribble sauce down your face, and using the brief moments of silence to remember the content of the upcoming presentations.

                                                                                                  I do about six days of teaching a year at the moment so have kinda lost all that natural fluidity from repeated practice and being able to bluff a whole slide off a glanced word out of the corner of the eye. My teaching style at the moment is to use a single picture as a whole slide and then build a story from that. Trying not to prepare it too much, as sounds stilted, but more developing the story with the class. Which is all grand in a classroom where there's no bother on you, but having severe doubts now how that will work tomorrow.
