    My friend has tried to ring me 18 times within the past 50 minutes. Can he not tell that I am not in the mood to talk? Especially as I know that he will go on and on and on and on about his girlfriend.

    Edit: 22 times now.
    Edit: 27 times now.
    Edit: He finally stopped trying to ring me but he instead rang my mum. My mum made it perfectly clear to him that I do not want to answer the phone and that we cannot help him to find his girlfriend on Facebook (which is what he wanted me to do.)

    I feel really ashamed to be me. It feels like I am worthless and very stupid sometimes.  It might seem heartbreaking for a 14 year old to say (or for anyone to say) but it is honestly how I feel at the moment.) :( 

    I can't even do a lot of the stuff that people my age can do. 

    I can't catch a ball, I can't throw a ball, I can't do a lot of sport such as tennis or rounders or football, I struggle with certain aspects of getting myself dressed, I struggle with cutlery, I struggle with drawing, I can't write in a straight line if there are no lines, I struggle with gluing, I can't dance well without constantly getting myself tied up and I wasn't able to tie my own laces until I was 12. 

    I have ended up having to find different ways to do the things that people my age take for granted. Hopefully getting physiotherapy once the coronavirus stuff allows the hospitals to safely open and do appointments.

    Eventually he got it through his head that no means no. He left me alone after what my mum said to him. Still very cheeky for him to ring me so many times and then ring my mum.

    I told myself that I was going to stay away from social media this evening but then I came accross an ignorant comment. 

    How can somone quote MLK and in the same sentence trivialise the George's death? HOW?

    Agreed, I’m glad he let you alone :)

    Does anyone know how to turn of notifications for certain threads?

     They don’t have the star on them and I sometimes miss the things Id like to see because there are too many notifications :/

    The pizza place near me opened up recently, and people have been using the park next to it to eat because the restaurant is closed. Since then, the park has been FULL of used pizza boxes, napkins, cutlery, bottles, etc. The restaurant has been getting a lot of blame for it but it's absolutely not their fault.

    Why are people like this. :disappointed: Take your damn rubbish home.

    It’s been the same in the woods and park near us @Mike, we’ve found loads of crap down there - from pizza boxes, to cans of beer, to bottles of vodka, to a disposable barbecue...we even found an opened jar of hotdogs down there one day.. 

    People are disgusting and it drives me nuts too.
