Always worth a retweet this time of year - for the love of God do not follow the advice we all somehow erroneously learned along the way to throw the poor Swift up in the air ‘so it can fly away’ - as this thread explains that’s the worst thing you could do!

Retweet ❗️ This is a Swift. sometimes they can end up on the ground. This is where they need YOUR help! Swifts arrive back to the UK from April/May to nest. 🪺 (A THREAD)

The U.S. has spent billions to lose a war that enriches its oligarchs, impoverishes the citizenry, sabotages its alliances, and strengthens its enemies. Empires have risen and failed before, but to my knowledge no state has ever chosen to kill its own power.

.@TheHersheyBears are back in the playoffs!
Our affiliation with Hershey is a cornerstone of the @Capitals' development pipeline, playing a vital role in the growth and maturation of our players, coaches, and staff.
The connection with the Hershey community – and fans across the region – makes this run even more meaningful. Excited to see it unfold. 💯

Justin Fairfax murdered his wife Cerina in their home, then killed himself and left their kids to pick up the pieces.
As Black men, we need to be clear in moments like this: nothing is worth killing a Black woman. Nothing.
Pain is real. Divorce is real. Depression is real. Rage is real. But none of it justifies violence against a woman. Too many Black women carry the weight of loving men who haven’t healed. Too many children are left to pick up trauma they didn’t create.
A man who cannot control his anger is dangerous. And too often, the people closest to him pay the highest price.
We don’t want excuses when others kill us. We shouldn’t make excuses when Black men kill Black women either. Accountability must be consistent. Protection must be intentional. Healing must be a priority.
I grieve for Cerina, her children, and everyone who loved her.
And I want Black men to hear this plainly: If you harm a woman, that is not manhood. Get help before you become harm.

The Kyoto Aquarium in Japan keeps a wall-sized flowchart tracking the romantic relationships, breakups, and drama between their penguins. They update it every year. Red hearts mean couples. Blue broken hearts mean it’s over. Purple lines with question marks mean it’s complicated. Yellow means friendship. Green means enemies. One female penguin reportedly ended six relationships in a single year. The comment under her photo, translated from Japanese, described her as “basically demonic.” Another penguin was caught dating someone 17 years older who also turned out to be their great aunt. And penguins who get broken up with sometimes refuse to eat. Apparently the staff say wing-flapping means flirting, grooming each other means it’s official, and if a penguin steals another penguin’s egg… well, it’s exactly what it looks like.

NEW: In the aftermath of Trump’s humiliating failure in Iran yesterday, many of his critics have decided to lob a familiar insult: TACO.
But this acronym misses the fact that the president is a demented maniac whose bluffs are causing profound damage to the country.

Alcaraz's not even the youngest male player to ever do it
How could Alcaraz and his sponsor discriminate like that?

@Ambergris828 @arealmofwonder Thanks because that’s why I hate it, but like it at the same time. Her first scene in the mill is magical.
English
@arealmofwonder Totally different from the novel's ending, and a public kiss like that would never have happened irl at that time, but even so, I love it, lol. I rewatched N&S over and over so many times when I first discovered it... Gorgeous ending scene.

The BBC adaptation of Elizabeth Gaskell's North & South really does have one of the most tenderly beautiful endings in all of television.

"Vegan leather" is plastic.
"Vegan wool" is plastic.
"Vegan fur" is plastic.
Every wash cycle releases microplastics into the water. Every year it degrades slightly and releases more. At end of life it will sit in landfill for four hundred years or end up in the ocean.
The sheep, meanwhile, grows a new coat every year, requires it removed, and produces a fibre that has been biodegradable since the Neolithic.
But yes. The sheep is the environmental problem.
The sheep, standing in the Lake District in the rain, growing renewable fibre from grass.
The sheep.

"If they rise, they rise" was trump's nonchalant, uncaring reaction to gas prices spiking, as America REELS behind 92,000 JOB LOSSES in another weak February under trump's colossal failures.
Let's get 1,000 fast RTs and replies with #TrumpsJobsSlump.
Please and thank you! 🙏💪

A lone daffodil against a stormy sky for today's photo taken in Glastonbury. As we welcome Meteorological Spring today I don't think Winter is quite ready to leave us being as it is now raining and very grey. 😂#spring

Mitch McConnell discussed what he thinks his legacy will be, in an interview with the Lexington Herald-Leader:
"I would like everybody to be able to say, you know, I actually had an impact in a positive way on the country."
