Grief is complicated for animals too. Since Clive died in June, Willow, who always affected a disdain for him, went into a real, almost human depression. Sleeping all day, seeming not herself at all, and in particular, having witnessed him die in my arms , appearing to be frightened of me as if she would be next. As you can imagine I have found that very painful and upsetting and worrying. This is the first week that she seems to be lifting a little , and is following me around and being her super affectionate, clingy, yoga interrupting self. Animals are sensitive and their feelings need to be respected. I’m so grateful to feel her love again . Healing takes time .

If yesterday has highlighted anything, it’s the grim reality of how dangerous male entitlement can be.
The root cause of this is misogyny. It’s patriarchy. It’s sexism repackaged as “being a better” or “real” man, by toxic social media influencers. It’s social media companies themselves allowing this content to be eaten up, unchallenged. It’s an entire society that turns a blind eye to the cause of violence towards women and girls.
None of these problems are new, they have just repeatedly been left to fester, morph and grow until we are at a place where a high profile public figure can come on live Tv and make misogynistic remarks about a woman, and the next day lament the death of a 15 year old girl by a boy – and not see how those actions are connected.
Misogyny breeds violence. It’s never just a comment, banter, a joke – it’s a culture that enables women to be seen as less than men. As disposable, without agency.
We didn’t need to have this horrific wake up call. It shouldn’t take the violent death of a teenage girl for society to listen.
Misogyny should be treated with the same severity as any other form of terror and violence. This isn’t something women should have to put up with anymore. Deepest condolences to the family and friends of 15 year old Elianne Andam, for all the light and life that has been taken from you . Again I am disabling comments out of respect to her and her family . Repost @cheerupluv

Dogs are so clever (except mine who will “come here” all day long unless asked, in which case she hears “run as fast as you can and sit in an open suitcase in the spare room.” Every time.)
