A pair of life sized giraffe engravings over 6metre tall and hewn into a rock about 8000 years ago in the Ténéré desert in the first foothills of the Aïr Mountains, in Africa each giraffe also has line leading down from its mouth to an engraved human figure below, perhaps symbolic of an ancient relationship that existed between giraffes and humans

When someone tells you they have not read a famous classic book, instead of saying, “I can’t believe you haven’t read it!”, you can say, “I wish I was you and I could read it again for the first time.” Instead of making people feel inadequate, show them the joys of reading.

What a week for public health 🤦🏻‍♂️ I don’t know who needs to hear this, but: surviving an infection doesn’t make you “stronger” for it. Surviving a #COVID19 infection leaves a mark. Like a boxer, every fight leaves it’s mark on your body. It can be an easy fight or a hard fight 1/

I have ADHD. I'm not working in your office if you don't allow headphones. Simple. They are a reasonable accommodation for me and I will decline any jobs that ban headphones. But also, forced socialisation for the 'vibe' is an utterly ridiculous neurotypical trash take.

Ok I have a good one - One time I was meant to go on school trip and because I submitted my form a few minutes late, my teacher said I couldn’t go. My dad calls the destination we are visiting and plans a VIP tour. He drives me to school, and we wait for the bus to pull out…

Your agent, editor, mentor, or reader didn't "take a risk" on you. They chose to invest their time because they believe in you and your story. It's a subtle mindset change, but a powerful one. You aren't a risk. You aren't a burden.

Gerda Wegener’s Art Deco-infused painting could be a fantasy portrait intended to capture the style and elegance of post-war fashion. It could also be a portrait of Wegener’s wife, Lili Elbe, one of the first people to undergo gender affirmation surgery in the 20th century. 🧵
