Prisca Thévenot obligée de s'auto-démentir à l'instant: Il n'y a eu "aucun attentat" déjoué durant le week-end de Pâques, contrairement à ce qu'elle affirmait crânement après le Conseil des ministre ce mercredi, selon Franceinfo. La porte-parole du gouvernement annonçait aussi une initiative "contre les fake news": ce niveau de crash, c'est artistique... Même Groland ne fait pas mieux!
South Queensferry, one of my favourite places for a Sunday afternoon walk. Not always this sunny of course 😄, but cool to see the harbour, grab a coffee and head off along the beach towards Cramond.
#art#history: for someone who regularly decries holidays, i sure am keen to hop onto any opportunity to toast my main mec, freddie mercury.
i wish i could impart some secret information about his political leanings; but all i really know is that people who knew him well say that he was a kind, shy & generous person. freddie himself said that he didn’t think pop stars made good mouthpieces for politics. o, well...at least he had the good sense to love #cats. #freddieMercury#sketch#music#queen
Many people asking us about #bumblebees at the moment - why they’re seeing them on the ground - so what follows is a quick series of toots to explain what they’re up to. Please #boost as every #queen bumblebee that survives means a new colony that gets to exist and produce new queen bees for next year! 1/8
🙏🏼🐝
That's 3, I know, but after 3 I really couldn't think of any more apart from Cake's "The Distance" and instead of spending way too much time looking things up, I'll end it here and add to it if I think of more.
"On a fair day in 1838, barely two years into Queen Victoria’s reign [...] a young, confident and handsome Mississauga Ojibway chief named Kahkewaquonaby [...] came knocking at the doors of Windsor Castle dressed in his finest leather from head to toe and asked to make an appeal to his Sovereign. The door was opened and tea and sympathy were offered. [...] The Queen promised to look into the request and in due course the deeds were handed over."
