What a heartbreaking week it has been. Sir Patrick Stewart was a friend, a colleague, and a magnificent actor. From the stage to the bridge of the Enterprise, he brought intelligence, grace, and a deep sense of humanity to everything he did. Captain Picard stood for the best of us, and so did the man who played him. I was filled with affection and admiration for him and his work. My heart goes out to Sunny and his family. He will be deeply missed.

Global icon and humanitarian, Dolly Parton, known to the world as a beloved singer, songwriter, philanthropist, actress, playwright, and author died peacefully today in Nashville, Tennessee. She was 80 years old. Dolly is preceded in death by her beloved husband of 59 years Carl Thomas Dean (1942 – 2025), her mother Avie Lee Caroline Owens (1923 – 2003), and father, Robert Lee Parton, Sr. (1921 – 2000). A rhinestone life that shone bright enough for the world to see, Dolly will forever stand as an inspiration not only through her timeless music and prolific songwriting, but also her wit, warmth, and kindness that made us all feel like family. Dolly Parton’s legacy is one of love, compassion, and resilience. With a seven-decade career, she inspired multiple generations of artists and fans with her music and an unwavering commitment to making the world a better place. Her songs will continue to resonate with people of all ages, and her philanthropic work will have a lasting impact. At Dolly’s request, a small, private service will be held for immediate family. Dolly’s fans and friends from around the world are encouraged to pay tribute to Dolly on social media by tagging @DollyParton or by leaving a message at dollyparton.com In lieu of flowers the family asks for donations to be made to Dolly Parton’s Imagination Library at imaginationlibrary.com

We're very sad to learn of the passing of ex-Battersea cat Palmerston. As one of Battersea's most notable former residents, Palmerston helped shine a light on the joy that rescue cats can bring to people’s lives. He will be missed, but his extraordinary legacy will live on. 💙
Palmerston, Diplocat extraordinaire, passed away peacefully on 12 February. “Palmy” was a special member of the Government House team in Bermuda, and a much loved family member. He was a wonderful companion, with a gentle nature, and will be sorely missed.

To those with power and influence. Last year, we called on you to act: 🔴Respect the rules of war. 🔴Protect humanitarians and civilians. 🔴End impunity. Nothing changed. How much more suffering will you ignore? On #WorldHumanitarianDay, we urge you to #ActForHumanity – now.

His only sin was that his eyes opened to a sky that rained fire instead of rain, and that his little heart learned fear before it ever knew how to play. He didn’t choose his homeland — but the homeland chose him to be an innocent witness to unbearable pain. His only sin was being born in Gaza.
The last hug😭😭😭 I will always love you, Leo. I’ll never forget you — not ever.

Harvard has set an example for other higher-ed institutions – rejecting an unlawful and ham-handed attempt to stifle academic freedom, while taking concrete steps to make sure all students at Harvard can benefit from an environment of intellectual inquiry, rigorous debate and mutual respect. Let’s hope other institutions follow suit.

Ukrainian soldiers recite the poem Invictus by British poet William Ernest Henley as a gesture of gratitude to the United Kingdom for its unwavering support🇺🇦🇬🇧. This powerful poem stands as a timeless symbol of resilience, dignity, and inner strength in the face of seemingly insurmountable challenges.
