Re the emails-hardly the main point but I remember a certain cultural moment around 2000 & before phone keyboards when it was uncool NOT to have typos bc texting was hard. Educators worried that text-speak would hasten illiteracy. Could JE not write, or was he just using the register of the time?🤷🏻‍♀️

The circumstances of Virginia's death haunt me. I grew up close to where she died - it's a hundred kms outside the most isolated city in the world. What was a school bus even doing in that area? And why would you survive the crash and then end it all weeks later? It doesn't stack up at all 😞

Oh no 😓. I'm an English prof/teacher. Have been known to proclaim confidently that reading/writing literature makes you a 'better' person. Wishing u strength - sending solidarity.

On the contrary. Good haiku is very hard. (sorry - randomly found yr thread & now I'm all miserable and need to go and look at trees for a while). Thank you for this work - awful as it is 😢

Ah crap. There really is no bottom, is there? 😢

Oh I'm sure you have a very wise one 🤞🏼

Almost like...you signed up to live with a human toddler for the next fifteen years 😅

But an abusive government might 😳

The real mom is right beside them but she swears & farts so they muted her.

Yep - I suppose no one should be surprised by the 'hiding in plain sight'
anymore. It just strikes me that anyone wanting to smear Trump could've hacked JE's gmail years ago - it's gmail!

Just reposting bc it's so beautiful. I've never seen a sunbird.

This is fascinating. Help me here - why would you pay thousands to poison searches but be so careless on gmail? Is it just about reputation - not privacy & covering yr tracks?

This entire thread. All of it. Read it. Now.

I literally did this the other day. You see, I'm an Australian Aboriginal. We call lots of people Aunty and Uncle. I couldn't remember whether a relative was my Great Aunt or second cousin. My little sisters are actually my cousins. One of my Aunties is actually my second cousin. Super normal.

Important re ME/CFS, especially in the UK 👇👇👇

Watching the #NoKings from Australia. The numbers are FANTASTIC but one of the (many) things I love about it is that you're all so bloody hilarious. It could have been a grim, angry day but I keep seeing footage that has me in tears of laughter. Power to the (funny) people 🇺🇸 👏 🐸🦄

Yes your taxes should support disabled people.

They should support homeless people.

They should support those living in poverty, children and the elderly.

This is literally the purpose of taxes, and I would far rather support those who need it than continue to enrich the elite.

Dr. Jane Goodall filmed an interview with Netflix in March 2025 that she understood would only be released after her death.

Jane Goodall, Eminent Primatologist Who Chronicled the Lives of Chimps, Dies at 91

My heart is filled with bittersweet sadness and admiration for the end of a life truly well-lived.

Rest in Power, Jane Goodall.

Thank you for embodying the best of humanity. Your imprint on the planet and its creatures is indelible.

If only that was true. Those who own the data control history. Support the Wayback Machine and Wikipedia bc you'll miss facts when they're gone!
