    Today is Mango’s 8th birthday He’s my boy Full of love & joy & play If you ask him: “Do you want to go for a walk tomorrow” or “Did you have a nice walk yesterday” he jumps up & get his lead It’s cos he doesn’t dream of the future or cling to the past He lives in the moment.

    An impromptu haka by a small group of #Christchurch schoolchildren in tribute to 2 of their murdered classmates becomes a powerful & cathartic expression of grief & anger as scores of students join the deafening chorus. #NewZeland #ChristchurchTerrorAttack

    Trump keeps repeating that the US has so many cases because they test so many people, but he is unable to answer why the US has so many deaths TrUMP: “When I took over we didn’t even have a test” SWAN: “Why would you have a test? The virus didn’t exist.” x.com/ParkerMolloy/s…

    A church in California has created a nativity scene putting Jesus, Mary & Joseph - the most well-known refugee family in the world - in separate cages. It is intended to make us ask ourselves: “What if this family sought refuge in our countries today?”
