100% agreed!
Can personally testify to how brilliant @silverpebble2.bsky.social’s calendars are. She only uses the highest quality paper, inks and photography. Check out her books and journal, too. Gorgeous! Would far rather support independent creative folk than mega billionaire online ‘shop’ owners. *cough*
There are still a few of my '26 calendars left in this final printrun.I create each of my 📷s using recent research into the beneficial effects on the brain of looking at plants & items arranged neatly.
Each calendar's 12 high quality frameable prints-make smashing gifts:

So, it's my birthday today. Had a haircut, so I don't need anything else. But if anyone wanted to make a little gift to this year's Leeds Care Leavers Christmas, that would be lovely.

Solvitur ambulando is my favourite Latin phrase. It means "it is solved by walking".

The words you’re looking for are traitor and treason.
NEW: Jeffrey Epstein said in emails that he had been advising the Russian government on how to deal with Donald Trump, one of several cases in which he wielded his connections to try to influence the course of foreign affairs. w @nahaltoosi

He doesn't know how to use things that are old enough to have a period.
why could Epstein not type a sentence to save his life

Have had my poor editor-in-chief (cat) throwing up today. So that’s him on nil by mouth for 24 hours. Suspect one of his meal combos irritates his stomach. Hopefully he’ll be fine by tomorrow. If no better in the morning he’s off to the vets. When I’m sick I don’t look half as cute as him. 🫶 🐈 ❤️

Don’t think the biggest political scandal has hit us yet. When it does it’ll have global ramifications and stretch back (at least) a couple of decades.

We’re sniffing round the edges of it right now.

The BBC is about as from being a “leftist propaganda machine” as you can get.
Q: Is the president prepared to bankrupt the BBC?

LEAVITT: This is a leftist propaganda machine that unfortunately is subsidized by British taxpayers, and he thinks that's extremely unfortunate for the great people of the UK

Maybe not so much that Hitler only had one ball, as the song goes; he may not have had any - quite literally. Not that excuses any of his abhorrent behaviour.
Exclusive: Adolf Hitler’s DNA has been sequenced by scientists

It has:
- shown he had a disorder which impacted his sexual development
- debunked rumours about his ancestry
- shown a high likelihood that he had a neurodivergent condition and/or bipolar disorder

Hitler had hidden genetic sexual disorder, DNA analysis reveals
The Nazi dictator had Kallmann syndrome, which hinders normal puberty and the development of sexual organs, according to groundbreaking research

Seconded! Make movies that are so brilliant nobody other than the studio heads care about how well it’s doing in the box office. Make it so good that word of mouth makes it an instant hit. Well, that’s easy enough, right?
If a filmmaker is gonna do one for the money, the high bars are DePalma's The Untouchables and Mission: Impossible. Make it so good that it never occurs to anyone to ask about your motivation for making it. So good that they're just grateful it exists.

Absolutely this. Apply what you know to what you learn and you'll make something that's personal and unique
Unsolicited writing advice, no. 18181999:
"Write what you know" is limiting advice, which leads to limited writing. Instead, know what you're writing about. That means due diligence: good research, wide reading, specialist help and advice if you need it. Stay curious. Try new ideas. No limits.

Molly Manners has made a mini romcom with Joe Wilkinson and Keira Knightley to advertise a supermarket and it's absolutely baffling. www.youtube.com/watch?v=wWeY...
