Just trying to become who I really am....
Which - having been diagnosed with Fibromyalgia - hasn't gotten any easier....

@RetroMoviesDB Because this is so deeply emotional....

@fopminui Wow, simply wow! I hope he keeps on quilting, as his sense of colours creates pure beauty! He can join a long list of male designers creating absolutely gorgeous fabrics, knitwear and crochet designs!
Love, love, love it! ❤️

@Havenlust Still water.... 😊

@Havenlust The Zaanse Schans, which is part of my hometown. But also Vlissingen, the hometown of Michiel de Ruyter. And the Delta-works, a magnificent design to prevent our flat below sea-level country from a flooding like in 1953. And of course bicycle-lanes everywhere.... 😊

I'm definitely heat intolerant, anything over 20 degrees causes issues, and the higher the temperature, the more problems. Also the longer the hot period, the more unbearable. My best temperature is around 12 degrees, lower is also doable with several layers of clothes....

@Havenlust Just wondering if you ever saw the BBC series 'The Impressionists'? It is Monet's story of struggle to be able to keep on painting, and shows many of his fellow impressionists as well.
Monet is marvellously portrayed by Richard Armitage; the series is definitely worth watching!

Details you missed and things you (probably) didn't know about the Roman Pantheon 🧵

1. This takes place at noon every Pentecost

[Morgan Cameron Ross @Morgan_C_Ross]

81 years ago today on June 6, 1944, James M. Doohan of Vancouver(and later Sarnia) was shot 6 times on Juno beach while fighting for Canada on D-Day. He would later go on to become Scotty on Star Trek.

THIS DAY in 1954, Alan Turing took his own life.

Helped to win WWII. Saved 100s of 1000s of lives.
Created the first Electronic Computer.

A True Genius of his time.

Driven to desperate measures by a Society that didn't understand a different sexuality.

This is an image from @I_W_M of British Commandos on a landing craft approaching Sword Beach on D-Day, 6th June 1944.
War is a horrific thing; these men left their loved ones to enter its hellish cauldron. Some never returned. We remember their immense bravery and sacrifices so that they should never be necessary again.

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU everyone for the absolute tidal wave of kindness and support I've had over the last 12 hours.

I'm pleased to say all is well at this end. I had my treatment almost a year ago to the day, High-Intensity Focused Ultrasound and everything is now exactly as it should be in fact in the last few days I've been told by one of the countries leading radiologist that I now have a particularly fabulous looking prostate. 😎

The reason I spoke any this in public is simple. If there is a man you know, care about, love, make sure they get a blood test, it literally could save their life.

Onwards!

You’ve been told Judaism, Christianity, and Islam are three different religions.

But what if I told you they’re actually three chapters of the same story?

Once you see the link, you’ll never look at them the same way again. 🧵👇

“Grocery shopping, you pay the price. If you force yourself to do something… you pay the price… the day after or even several days after… dealing with exhaustion, flared up symptoms like #migraines and crippling #pain.” https://t.co/iOU7KWOo2k @InvisiblyMeBlog #ChronicIllness

Unfortunately that's so true, as I notice that - although Fibromyalgia is said to be non-progressive - I get worse with time passing.... So in 10 years I probably cannot do half of what I can now anymore.... 😢

@Havenlust Depends on the painting.... I like a lot from Van Gogh, but not all and I like a lot from Monet, but not all....
