The best beginning of a relationship I’ve ever heard: “We sat next to each other and realised we were reading the same book, which is crazy. It’s called Trust [by Hernán Díaz] and I had just finished the first chapter and I told her and she looked at me and said, ‘I just finished the first chapter too.’ I said, ‘So we’re on the same page.’” — Callum Turner on meeting Dua Lipa

Ricky Gervais Drops Truth Bombs on Stephen Colbert in Epic Religion Debate 🔥 “There are about 3,000 gods. You believe in one, so you don’t believe in 2,999 gods… and I don’t believe in just one more.” And on science vs religion: “If we took any holy book or any fiction and destroyed it, in a thousand years it wouldn’t come back just as it was. Whereas if we took every science book and fact and destroyed them all, in a thousand years they’d all be back, because the same tests would give the same results.” Colbert’s reaction? “That’s good… That’s really good.” Ricky is brilliant, always calm and explains his points so well. Respectful debate done right. 👏🏻

Un zorro usó su propio cuerpo como escudo para salvar a su cría en medio de un incendio… Lograron reanimarlo con un masaje cardíaco. Amor puro. ¿Hasta dónde crees que llegaría un animal por sus hijos?

While the family slept across the sofas, a baby slowly rolled toward the edge. A golden retriever on the floor noticed the subtle movement. Before anything happened, he calmly got up, grabbed a pillow, and placed it right below the couch.

I thought about doing this without any jokes, something I've never done here in 23 years, to impress upon people how much different I feel this issue is from any I have ever covered.

The range of what we think and do is limited by what we fail to notice. And because we fail to notice that we fail to notice, there is little we can do to change; until we notice how failing to notice shapes our thoughts and deeds.” #quote #waterfalldown #friday
