    I’m thinking of increasing my hours especially if I don’t get this peer support worker job. And cause everyone’s going off to uni so good time to ask just don’t know how or who to ask and cause of time they start asking for Christmas tempts

    @Dandelion don’t suppose you know?
    “And when they look at you, they won't see everything you've been through. They won't see the **** that turned to scars that began to fade with time. They won't see the heartbreaking things that shook up and changed your entire world. They won't know how many tears you cried or even what it was you were crying about. They won't see how strong you had to be because you had no other choice. What they will see though is how compassionate you are because you experienced pain. What they will see is how kind you are because you experienced how cruel the world is. What they will see is how good you are because you've seen how bad things or people can be. The difference between you and your experiences are who you choose to be, despite everything that could have turned you cold and unkind.You are the good the world needs and the best of us.” ~ Kirsten Corley

    @Millie2787 I think you would know by now if it tested positive

    I just got spam blocked .. for reporting posts. Apparently you can only report one post every 60 seconds. Well then

    Yep. It all links in, comments and reporting can get you spam blocked. It's silly

    @independent_ yeah it’s like the covid line predominantly  for those who need to book a test and struggle to do it online but I know people have rang when results haven’t showed up

    When you get a covid related advertisement or post on your social media, I think if you click the toggle/arrow down etc, you can select that you don't want to see content like that.. 
    I think. Not sure if it still works that way.
    Maybe that will help?

    Nope @Shaunie, it’s not you - I’m asking for some of last night’s posts to be deleted, idk if that’s ok to say here but it’s no one else but myself I’m flagging.

    @GreenTea it’s strange how you can be spam blocked for that too. I think for comments it’s 30 seconds but for some reason for reports it’s 60. Like come on, I’m an old timer around here, I’m not a spam reporter.

    @Millie2787 oh makes sense idk if we’ve got that up here

    Literally. The spam thing is annoying but I guess regular users can spam too when they post comments one after the other without taking a break etc

    (Not you last night, don't worry 💕)

    I know the feeling of embarrassment the next day. But I don’t see anything you have to feel awful about!  I write cheesy ones and I don’t even have an excuse cause hardly ever drunk lol

    I feel like I was really annoying and yes I was spamming. I liked @Shaunie ‘s idea the other night of saying positive things about people and I wanted to do that but it was all very cheesy cause I was so drunk

    but isn’t that why everyone gets annoyed with the spam block cause we didn’t post it in one post on the same thread?
