Well worth reading this if you take herbal supplements like Turmeric or Ashwaganda 👀 www.theguardian.com/wellness/202...

So ridiculously excited to have win a 2nd Prize and a Highly Commended in our local flower show. I only entered for a laugh and to join in the village spirit. It’s the little things that bring the greatest joy 😊
A single large-headed, light purple dahlia that somehow managed to win second prize Three pink and white frilly looking Dahlias in a vase. That won a Highly Commended by judges.

if you're wondering how @Twitter turned into @x, i spoke with the original @x (who had his handle changed to @x12345678998765) Elon Musk took his 16+ year old username here's how it went down: mashable.com/article/elon-musk-twit…

Elon Musk and company take @x handle from its original user. He got zero dollars for it.
