"Younger you could not do what you could do now. That is not failure, it is a record of growth. She kept going. She learnt things the hard way."

Truly beautiful advice about being kind to your younger-self & celebrating life's messy journeys without intrusive regret. It really spoke to my heart.

Happy 99th birthday to the man who gave voice to the wild. 🎉

Sir David Attenborough, thank you for a lifetime dedicated to the natural world, and for sharing its story with wisdom, wonder, and grace.

You've inspired generations to fall in love with nature.

Really enjoying @jim.londoncentric.media ‘s London Centric newsletter and today’s email with an otter spotting near the Big Tesco is just exactly what the world needs right now.

So @vicderbyshire.bsky.social's interview - in the street, surrounded by angry farmers - with Jeremy Clarkson for Newsnight is an absolute masterclass in keeping your cool and knowing your facts. I love Clarkson's Farm, but his replies to her were not his finest moment.

“The time is approaching where we've got to all examine whether we should, en masse, withdraw from X."

Liverpool mayor @metromayorsteve.bsky.social told me "something needs to happen" to tackle Elon Musk and the misinformation and hate speech on his platform
