Even the smallest light is important to someone lost in the dark. Never underestimate the quiet way you keep the world warm.

WOW

Some people leave behind more than memories. They leave behind a quiet strength that lives on in the hearts they touched, and some memories never fade. They are like the echo of the trees, the wind, and the peaceful places where love lingers.

The longest night was not an end, but the quiet beginning of a new cycle. The winter solstice marks the moment of maximum darkness and, simultaneously, the first, barely measurable increase in light.

Quietly loved. He was born despite everything he is the light of the world. On the darkest day he will walk beside you. He walked beside me 13 years ago and I have no doubt he is always with me. Nature and science are more complex than they are given credit for.

The government is announcing a raft of animal welfare measures that include a ban on trail hunting, claiming they're just a smokescreen that masks the hunting of real animals. Chris Packam talks to Good Morning Britain 👏

The Government will today unveil its long-awaited Animal Welfare Strategy which sets out a raft of policies to improve the lives of pets and animals on farms and in the wild 👏 www.mirror.co.uk/news/politic...

Steves purchased the property to prevent it from closing. Many homeless people had come to depend on the Lynnwood Hygiene Center, which had operated rent-free on the property since 2020. n.pr/3MKbmJH

English hospitals that cut registered nurses saw more deaths while those hiring nurses saw more patients survive. Even when hospitals tried to fill gaps with non-nurses, deaths still went up. Major new study exposes dangerous NHS variation www.thetimes.com/uk/healthcar...

An image of a man being made-up with fake blood has been shared with claims it shows a ‘crisis actor’ at the Bondi Beach shooting. But this picture is AI and not real. Arsen Ostrovsky was treated in hospital for his genuine injuries from the attack.

The BMA claims resident doctors’ pay is worth 21% less than in 2008/9. But this is based on some questionable assumptions. Our independently verified analysis, using a different inflation measure backed by the Royal Statistical Society, suggests the fall’s more like 6-7%.

Labour MP Oliver Ryan said on Monday that resident doctors got a 29% pay rise “last year”. But the 29% figure for doctors in England actually represents the combined effect of several pay rises over three years, including the current one.

After contact from Full Fact, the Times has corrected a headline that wrongly claimed analysis found that “migrants’ partners” cost Britain £5.6 billion over their lifetime. Here’s why that isn’t quite right 👇

A video which has been shared thousands of times on social media appears to show a British soldier confronting a police officer over “arresting people for words”. But the clip is fake and has been created with AI.

This is not transparency. #EpsteinFiles

🧑‍🌾 SPOTTED in Jackson County, Wisconsin…

The DOJ is continuing to redact more mentions of Donald Trump found in the Epstein files. On the left the original version, on the right today’s version. Source: justice.gov/multimedia/C... #OpDeathEaters

Articles of impeachment are now being drafted against the Trump loyal Attorney General Pam Bondi. Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) and Rep. Ro Khanna (D-CA) are moving to file the articles of impeachment against Bondi for not fully releasing the Epstein Files as required by law.

so everyone who knows what is really in the epstein files has some excuse for not making the info public this is how crimes continue, and criminals go free I sure wish that Americans had the courage that Ukrainians have.

I quote from Andrew Tate’s X profile: ‘Unmatched perspicacity coupled with sheer indefatigability makes me a feared opponent in any realm of human endeavour.’ Erm… This is certainly not the case when it comes to boxing Andy. Oh dear. You poor little love. 😉

The greatest distance between two people isn't miles—it's the silence of things left unsaid. Can’t find the words…? Drop a song.

No one wants you to learn Latin, Hebrew, and Greek. In a world that creates more questions than answers ask more. I have never accepted the vague answers presented to me and neither should you.

Human rights are universal - politicians may not always find them politically convenient but it shouldn’t fall to any gov’t to say who those rights should & should not apply to. If that happens than none of us has rights, just privileges that can be taken away by people in power whenever they want

If you’re just waking up, google “Andrew Tate beaten” for a really good laugh.

I don't generally condone violence but happy Andrew Tate Getting Battered Day.

Andrew Tate getting his arse kicked by a guy in pink gloves has made my weekend.

The only thing Trump has ever taken his name off of is the Epstein files.

Did Trump make Pam Bondi the USAG because she is in the Epstein Files?

As many as there have been we need more. We still have less than 3.5% of the population. Show up in January! youtu.be/R5tEtocOZ4g

The ocean asked me to remind you that you can be at peace and intense at the same time. ✨🌊✨

The Trump regime tried to incriminate Michael Jackson thinking that would grab headlines instead of the overt and criminal coverup the Trump regime attempted today. MJ was trying to buy property and was introduced to Epstein, he wasn’t part of the network.

Jeffrey Epstein victim Marina Lacerda speaks on the Trump cover up of the Epstein network and files: "We can see some of these redactions were made obviously to protect, again, the wealthy and the rich and the powerful men." #OpDeathEaters

The Trump loyal DOJ have removed at least 16 files, including images of Donald Trump, from the Epstein Files web page after initially releasing them. There has been no explanation from the government and no notice to the public in regards to why the files were removed. #OpDeathEaters

The missing files included images of paintings depicting nude women, and one showing a series of photographs along a credenza and in drawers. The was a photograph of Trump, alongside Epstein, Melania Trump, Ghislaine Maxwell and unidentified young women or teens in swimsuits. #OpDeathEaters

The Trump DOJ deleted a literal drawer full of Trump photos from the Epstein files.

You would think they’d be better at this with the consequences being so high.

www.thedailybeast.com//trumps-doj-... So when did congressional Republicans think Trump’s inner circle like his hand-picked administration would obey the law and publish everything about Epstein and Trump. Do Republicans think they are associates? Wake up!
