On this day in 1944, the Gestapo found Anne Frank and her family in their Secret Annex. Her diary stands as a warning against hatred and persecution. Eighty years later, we should recognize the warning signs before it’s too late.🙂↕️

Cabaret. One of the best films of all time.
El Insus@mrinsustancial.bsky.social · yesterdayHe vuelto a ver "Cabaret" (Bob Fosse, 1972) y se nota que estoy mayor porque no he dejado de murmurar "¿Por qué ya no se hacen películas así?". Y luego he pensado: "A lo mejor porque ya se hicieron". No sé, independientemente de que soy idiota, qué grandísima película.
Just finished this… Wow! Having followed the documentary on Netflix and various podcasts. Anyone else have any thoughts? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Sta...

🏴 A fun bit of Edinburgh history! 📜 The Ross Fountain in Princes Street Gardens was originally cast at the Durenne foundry in Sommevoire, France. After being showcased at the Great Exhibition of 1862, it was shipped to Leith in 1869, arriving in 122 separate pieces! #scotland #edinburgh #history
Monday morning in Dean Village was most productive. The wading team covered a long stretch of river from Rocheid to Miller Row pulling out rubbish and balsam. On Dry-land, the team weeded around the millstones and buildings, removed gaffiti, and cut invasive buddleia. Brilliant!
