Lek Chailert ~ “If anyone still doesn't believe that Elephants have feelings like humans, this video might help you understand them better.
When Faa Mai wants me to sing for her, she gently takes my hand with her trunk and leads me to the spot where she wants me to sit. Then, one by one, the other Elephants in her herd follow and gather around me, forming a circle as I sing to them.
They even have their favourite songs. If they like a particular tune, they'll hum along. Music truly is a universal language ~ it speaks to the hearts of all living beings.
This has become a daily routine, one that brings them joy and relaxation. It's a simple act of love that connects us across species.”

Watching Peston bumble his way through this on the news earlier and my wife says "I didn't even know he was Jewish"...which is the precise fucking point Diane Abbott was making.
When EM took over Twitter, I lost about 40,000 followers. Never knew why.
If you oppose NHS privatisation, could you please RT this and follow me? It would be amazing to find those brilliant 40,000 people again 💙💙💙
From this point on, after the longest day celebrations you may hear Scots muttering ‘the nights are fair drawing in’. Never underestimate the primordial fear of those who have endured decades of Glaswegian Decembers. Without fairy lights.
If you could retweet my tweet below linking to my Etsy shop (2025 half calendars, July-Dec) it would put my shop in front of more eyes and would help more than you know. I'd appreciate it so much. Thankyou 🌿
In Japanese, "tsundoku" means collecting books and letting them pile up, not for neglect, but for the joy of knowing they're there, full of untold stories.
So proud of my mum who, aged 101, has finally received the #WW2 medals she was owed! She was an #RAF mechanic on Lancaster and Wellington planes.
