This World Environment Day, remember: the Amazon matters - to all of us.

Protecting the Amazon is a shared responsibility.

Because what happens in the forest doesn't stay there. It shapes our future, everywhere.

It's unacceptable for policing to look like this in America. This should both frighten and outrage anyone who wants the US to remain a free society.

This.

I hear people tutting about how scruffy my front garden looks as they walk past in winter and spring… . Then this happens in the summer. Nectar magnet for insects everywhere. And it looks rather lovely too. Tidy isn’t for everyone or everything.

@history99917180 That last part, especially.

[Gareth Williams. @history99917180]

Yes. During summer holidays you left the house at 9am and got home at 9pm. You’d blag some lunch from one of your mates parents and get up to mischief until it started to get dark. And guess what, we’re didn’t spend all day being offended by everything.

Damson: "I can't even beat Lewis running, there's no way. That guy is fast in every way." 😭

"He's such a genius, such a champion, such an innovator and such a beautiful human being."

In affairs of the heart, know your flowers!
A legend tells that when the young knight Sir Rupert gave his sweetheart, Lady Edith, a pink dianthus — a symbol of pure love — she unknowingly returned a striped carnation, which in the language of flowers means “I cannot be with you.”

Broken-hearted, Sir Rupert went off to war. Believing herself forsaken, Lady Edith followed him in disguise, dressed as an archer. In battle, she struck Sir Rupert with an arrow — perhaps in grief, or revenge. But as he lay wounded, she saw the striped carnation he had kept close to his breast.

Realising her mistake, she fell to the ground weeping and revealed her identity. They understood at last what had gone wrong.

Fortunately, Sir Rupert survived his wounds — and he and Lady Edith lived happily ever after, vowing never again to take the language of flowers so literally!

🎥 | Damson Idris on Lewis Hamilton’s involvement on the #F1TheMovie:

“He kinda called BS on some of the sequences that wouldn’t happen in real life.”

“It was really just a sense of encouragement from Lewis. Anytime he came on set – everyone would be really excited.”

“He’d congratulate me and encourage me to keep going, and that fuelled me throughout the whole process of filming.”

Work on you, for you

[Sam Cannon Art @SamCannonArt]

Yes, I love painting flowers and sunny days.
But again and again I am drawn back to the beauty of the night. The creatures that exist in the part of the day that we so often miss out on.

[yonnette ward @YYonnette]

@SamCannonArt You have such tremendous talent, Sam.
