Planning the perfect Christmas dinner? Your homegrown Brussels sprouts are the star! 🌱
Top Tip: For bigger, more uniform sprouts, pinch out the main growing tip at the top of the plant in the next few weeks. This focuses all the plant's energy into fattening up the sprouts on the stalk. #gyo

Just a little Wren that was making quite some noise earlier in The Garden Jungle on the side of a tree. I could listen to their calls all day long #birds #thegardenjungle #wildlifephotography #birdwatching #shropshire #UKwildlife #birdphotography #canon #photography

This morning Gisele Pelicot was asked why she hasn't dropped her last name

She replied that she didn't want her family to be "ashamed" of who they were

"I don't want my grandchildren to feel shame," she said.

"We will remember Madame Pelicot and not Monsieur Pelicot."

Gisèle Pelicot addressing her choice to keep the surname "Pelicot":

"When the trial began, my children were 'ashamed' of the name. I have grandchildren called that. I want them proud. My name is known worldwide now. They shouldn't be ashamed. Today we will remember Gisèle Pelicot."

What a woman.

An "accidentally rewilded" 377-acre UK farm is now home to many threatened species, including turtle doves, warblers, 11 bat species, orchids + butterflies.

In early 2014, Michelle Goldberg wrote a piece for the Nation on “feminism’s toxic twitter wars”. At the time it prompted a great deal of “discourse”; now it seems rather quaint. As someone who’d been...

Police said "it's not a family violence incident" but a "tragic set of circumstances." Actually, it was violence against a woman which resulted in her death. Let's call a spade a spade.

Facial reconstruction of Bishop Walter of Whithorn (died 1235) as part of the Cold Case Whithorn Priory Project.

Records of a bespoke bariatric coffin and analysis of the skeleton indicate an overweight individual, who suffered from DISH, which would have caused chronic pain and a stooped posture.
