I hate how my anxiety really gets to me over silly little things.

I know they’re silly - but the sensations of immediate doom are there anyway 😫

What I’d give to have my not squiffy 25 year old brain back 😅

When they say it’s fine… but it’s really not is it 😅

All nature and wildlife vibes 💚🌱

Idk if it’s just our neighbours but they see one #rat and call the council to put poison out.

It’s RIDICULOUS - one rat is not a problem they live everywhere. Just as common as birds. When people see a bird, they don’t freak out and try and kill it.

Stop killing nature.

@carlcapewell Thank you! 😊

[Rhian Minter @RhianMinter]

Taking recommendations for good wildlife hotspots in London?

Keen to get out with my camera and find something a bit different 👀🦆

[Rhian Minter @RhianMinter]

Good people do not have to silence those around them and hide their actions to maintain control.

📣 Louder for those in the back!

@domdyer70 My ex got jealous of a puppy…. A PUPPY?! Safe to say that fragile ego was a big ick 😅

[Ben Goldsmith @BenGoldsmith]

The recovery of majestic humpback whales from near extinction after industrial whaling to near abundance today is a marvellous thing. It can be done! We can live in a world full of wildlife if we choose it.

Hey what did you get for Christmas?

Me: … Flu… 😅

Saw this graphic and I think it’s so important to teach this, so later in life it’s easier to identify in relationships.

Coercive control is subtle but it breaks you down, keeps you “in your box” and slowly removes your spark over time.

Nobody should have to live with it.

@johndmcck Feel like a lot of people are running on empty with end of year work, but maybe that’s increasing stress levels!

[Rhian Minter @RhianMinter]

Is there something in the water or are people just generally super unpleasant for no reason these days? 😬

[Rhian Minter @RhianMinter]

@GlavenEel Oh it’s so good to hear someone making the effort to be nice! I think a lot of people forget themselves when the weather goes a bit cold and grey!

[WWT @WWTworldwide]

The thing is @AngelaRayner, people need nature. We ARE nature.

And it's perfectly possible to create homes for people while saving homes for wildlife, including newts (who are, we might add, a vital part of wetland life).

Well… it’s a tad windy out 😅

[Rhian Minter @RhianMinter]

My brain: here’s the logical explanation

Also my brain: LOL anxiety.

[Rhian Minter @RhianMinter]

@george_hoppit Oh no I think I had a similar experience at a level too 😫

[Rhian Minter @RhianMinter]

What I would’ve done to do this GCSE at school instead I was forced to pick subjects “close” to what I needed for my career in conservation.

This GCSE will be a game changer in inspiring the next generation! Let’s not let it drop off.

IMPORTANT The campaign for a GCSE in Natural History has stalled. Labour see it as a "Conservative initiative" and won't progress it. It is not a political football, every child has the right to learn about the wonder of the natural world. Plse ask you MP to lobby for it now. 🙏

[Rhian Minter @RhianMinter]

@george_hoppit The closest I could get at school was the sciences (which barely covered any environmental elements) and geography 😅 think I learnt more about nature in geography but it was still mostly tectonic plates 😫
