Having dealt with depression for much of my life, I find that some of the only times I’m able to get out of my head and be in the moment are when I’m photographing waterfalls. When I’m there time stops and nothing else matters.

What could be better than a walk in the countryside where behind every glade of trees there’s a work of art?

Saw a new bird today and my excitement was instantly deflated when a bird cop told me it was “super common.” She doesn’t know I spiritually imprinted on it and it’s coming back with friends to shit all over her Subaru later.

If you love a book, write a nice review. It gives the author encouragement for bad days when they want to take up scorpion petting. - @lianabrooks.bsky.social

Did you know that Wes Streeting has removed a ‘cost cap’ from private companies delivering NHS care- therefore giving them special treatment over publicly-owned NHS services?🚨

Imagine if publicly-owned NHS services had an unlimited budget to treat patients!

NHS scraps plan to cap costs of bringing down waiting lists
Patients in England can expect to be seen quicker as cost-cutting plans that capped the amount paid to private hospitals for treating NHS patients are abandoned
