Few Oasis B sides earned the reputation that "Acquiesce" did among fans. Performed on The White Room in 1995, the song was released as the B side to "Some Might Say" during the (What's the Story) Morning Glory? era and remains notable for sharing lead vocals between Liam and Noel Gallagher.

Please retweet, never rehome your pets online, cruel people don't always look cruel. Mark Cuthbert bought over 50 pets online to use as bait for his hunting dogs to rip apart. #Ayr #Scotland He sent his partner to pick the pets up as people are more likely to trust a woman. Sellers thought the pets were going to loving homes.

Never sell or give your pets away on pet selling sites or social media. Cruel people can fake being kind.

Claude Mellan's Face of Christ, also known as The Sudarium of Saint Veronica (1649), is one of the most technically extraordinary works in art history...

The entire portrait is rendered using a single, continuous spiralling line that begins at the tip of Christ's nose and expands outward to the edges of the cloth.

Mellan achieved the illusion of depth, shadow, and facial features without any cross-hatching or traditional shading. Instead, he precisely varied the thickness and pressure of the burin (his engraving tool) as he rotated the copper plate, creating "swelling" lines that darken the image where needed.

The spiralling line is estimated to be approximately 150m (about 500ft) long if it were stretched out.

On This Day — May 25, 1948

They put a bullet in the back of his head.

The man they executed that day was Witold Pilecki — the only person in history who voluntarily walked into Auschwitz.

In 1940, this Polish cavalry officer deliberately got himself arrested during a Nazi roundup in Warsaw. Using a false identity, he entered hell as prisoner #4859.

For two and a half years, Pilecki lived as a starving skeleton in striped rags while secretly building a resistance network inside the camp. He smuggled out the first detailed eyewitness reports of the Nazi death machine to the Allies — gas chambers, selections, medical experiments, and the systematic murder of Jews.

While he was there, more than 1,000 Jews per day were being gassed and burned. At its peak in 1944, the killing rate reached more than 6,000 per day.

He saw it all.
He documented it all.
He risked everything so the world would know.

In April 1943, Pilecki escaped by overpowering a guard at a bakery outside the wire. He rejoined the fight, battled in the Warsaw Uprising, and later resisted the Soviet occupation of Poland.

For his courage, the communist regime tortured him, staged a show trial, and executed him on May 25, 1948.

One of the great heroes of the 20th century.
Remember his name: Witold Pilecki.

The Roses were the first band since Joy Division/New Order to carry that Factory‑born belief — that Manchester doesn’t follow scenes, it creates them.

May 10 is the birthday of Hero of Ukraine Oleksandr Matsievskyi, a Ukrainian warrior who became a symbol of unwavering courage and resilience. His last words were, “Slava Ukraini!” Then the russians ruthlessly gunned him down.

I do not think the russians who executed this hero realized what they had done. They wrote Oleksandr Matsievskyi’s name into the books of history.

By executing this Ukrainian hero, the russians fueled the fire that is already consuming them and will consume them entirely. That fire is the Ukrainian will to fight for freedom and for survival.

For Ukrainians, dying with dignity is more important than living as slaves. To die with dignity… to know that your last moment has come and to make the decision to leave with dignity… to go on your own terms… to go with the words on your lips that you chose yourself… to take your last breath, take your time, say “Slava Ukraini!” and die…

I used to think that only heroes in movies died like that. Now the whole world knows what dignity is - the true dignity of a real Ukrainian hero.

Glory to all who are fighting the russian evil in the form of the russian federation.

Glory to Ukraine! 🇺🇦

Now we truly have a global Coalition for the Return of Ukrainian Children – from Canada and Latin America, from the United States and Argentina, to Europe and Japan. Today, Switzerland and Cyprus are joining our coalition. We now have almost 50 countries standing together in this coalition – and I am grateful for that.

Almost every month, we see results. Children come home. But many more still need to come home. We must clearly document where the children are, track the full chain of abduction and the cover-up of this crime, bring the children back, and help them find themselves again and return to normal life.

None of this is easy. But it is good that our Bring Kids Back UA initiative is working. It is good that you are active – at the level of the European Commission, European institutions, international organizations, and the leadership of every country. And I am especially grateful to the First Ladies who help to secure the release of these children. All of this must continue.

From an address to the International Coalition for the Return of Ukrainian Children (2/3).

11 years ago, the Yazidi Genocide began.

Men were massacred, women and young girls sold into sex slavery. Our people nearly wiped out at the hands of ISIS.

There were no weekly mass protests in any Western country.
