If you are in Seattle, please go patronize this store because this is amazing content/promo 😂 (laughing to keep from crying, and I do kind of low-key want that orange spider plant I have never seen that before)

Waiting to cross the road a few years ago, a random guy waiting opposite did an elaborate bow (with arm sweep), no idea why but I did a proper curtsey in reply as it felt right 🤷‍♀️

This is such a clever idea on taking kids to museums/galleries
www.theguardian.com/lifeandstyle...
Nadia from London has an idea that sounds such fun you'll be booking a day out asap. "I've always loved museums," she says, "but they can be overwhelming for children. For decades now, I've done something called 'playing postcards' We do the museum backwards, visiting the gift shop first. Each child gets to choose three postcards. Then they take it in turns to find that particular artwork in the museum and give us a little information about the piece from the details on the postcard, or from any gallery plaque. At the end of this treasure-hunt-style activity, we vote for our favourite in the cafe."

Alien: Earth (N. Hawley and others, 2025)
A sheep in a bus shelter in the Highlands of Scotland. It looks a lot like the sheep in Alien: Earth which is the host of the T. Ocellus parasite.

If you’re waking up to yet another news programme on tv or radio that is over platforming REFORM with 4 MPs and not mentioning any other opposition party, you know what to do. Sign here and get anyone else you know to sign. Fair coverage now. Takes 30 seconds petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...
Petition: Ensure plurality of political coverage across UK broadcast media at all times
We want to ensure that a plurality of views from all political parties in Westminster are represented and the nations parliaments are heard all year round, not just election times. The rules for coverage during elections should apply at all times.

JAWS turns 50 this year and while it's full of effective examples of suspense filmmaking, I would argue that this particular shot is one of the most terrifying things ever captured in cinema.

To celebrate the historic East End textile industries that inspired the London Overground’s Weaver line, a new woven roundel is now in place at Hackney Downs station.

London textile artist Dalia James created the roundel with pieces woven by Londoners at community workshops.

PSA to drivers - it’s a really nice gesture to indicate I can cross the road in front of you but if it’s night and you just wave your hand I CAN’T SEE YOU 🤦🏻‍♀️
