Real talk ...

Does anyone else ever have a bum that can't be wiped cleaned despite using half a roll of toilet paper?

Sometimes I give in and end up with an itchy arse.

I have learned it is best to take a break make a cup of coffee and wipe again after half an hour or so when it has dried out a bit.

Edit...thanks for all the health tips...the issue is the white floury bap I ate before bed, I knew well when I ate it what would happen.

Moved here last year for work and housing. Hoping to meet someone but finding social outlets thin on the ground at this end of the county.

I'm around 6'0 and fairly slim. I like live music, fitness and am a little alternative in the way I think - a hippy in disguise maybe. Love deep conversation on philosophy and theology, I would consider myself open minded and chilled out.

Kids are basically reared and all baggage neatly packed away.

Embracing the quiet life. Plenty of space to get to know someone locally.

I was at a party the other night with some well known musicians and arty types. The drink was flowing.

Of course immigration came up. Not in the sense of a sensible discussion around housing and employment but actual racism. "They want whites de*d" and stuff that would get me banned here.

It totally shocked me. A few years ago these people would have been liberal hippy types.

I first noticed overt racism around the water rate strikes. Back then it was a section of activist types. Then around the time of COVID it permeated into my workplace ( a caring profession) and people felt emboldened to use slurs I hadn't heard in years.

Now even the festival party types are repeating the same type of rhetoric - thinking, somehow, they are in on some secret knowledge that they don't get off mainstream media.

Bloomin hell, even the kind old lady that does my washing never shuts up about how Europe is finished".

I am all for a bit of anti-establishment conspiracy but I sense these "free-thinkers" are being played like fools.

Bit down in the dumps. Hairline receeding, visibly ageing. To old for dating but recently liked someone, probably going nowhere. In a new town which is quiet and I get lonely. Tell me a joke.

Any post on Reddit and there is always some troll popping up.

Other social media just as bad. Literally any comment and there is someone picking a fight.

Why do you think this is ?
