"Storytellers broaden our minds: engage, provoke, inspire and, ultimately, connect us."
The man who, from the beginning, was always so much more than Hollywood's golden boy has gone. Must admit, this one has hit me a little bit.
Goodbye #RobertRedford (1936-2025). #RIP, sir.

From comeback kids to back-to-back queens!
Hopefully, the #Lionesses' unique triumph will be a touchstone for many years: an opportunity to celebrate and recognise the best of our modern selves.
This is what English/ British pride looks, sounds and feels like in the 2020s.

Everything changes, eventually.
For better or worse, I suspect the cinematic #JamesBond as so many of its fans know it may now be dead but, of course, one should admit they don't know anything for certain unless there's definitive proof. Never say never (again).

#RIPJimmyCarter. Former US President, humanitarian, diplomat, WWII veteran, Nobel prize laureate, community activist and peanut farmer.
A man whose post-Presidency was an unequivocal lesson in decent, dignified and earnest public service - one we simply can't afford to ignore in the 21st Century.

For a brief time six decades ago, the US and the Western world reveled in the dynamic yet wise leadership of two young brothers with old heads; in such contrast to today, it seems. #JohnFKennedy was killed 61 years ago today; #RobertFKennedy was born 99 years ago this week. #JFK #RFK #AmericasFinest
