Diplomacy is not failing in Iran because of Rubio and Kushner and so forth. It is failing because the war happened at all, and Iran is in a position to inflict pain so the West never touches it again.

This bird nudged its buddy out of the rain, and it is not random kindness. Birds use shelter-sharing like allopreening, a bonding ritual that keeps flocks calm and close.

What they don't teach you about heatwaves: It's not just heat. It's: • Your crops dying • Your river drying (Rhine is low again, disrupting shipping) • Your lungs burning from wildfire smoke • Your power grid collapsing It's everything at once.
Imagine watching your neighbour's house burn down and, instead of helping, complaining about the smell of the smoke.
The single greatest shot in TV history , how one frame replaced pages of script and defined a character in seconds.
