Inspirational women, kittens and puppies thread

[PricklyBall]

Because we need something that will lift us up, rather than send our blood pressure soaring.

Thread rules:

Women who've done bloody amazing things.

Soothing pics (fluffy animals, beautiful landscapes, flowers, wonderful craft creations, fabulous cakes... the list is open ended).

Good idea - all Twittered out for today. Here's my effort.

Do the kittens have to be inspirational as well?

Love this! I’ve taught myself to crochet because I’m basically a housebound invalid who can only lie on the floor. This is my first granny square and I am SO BLOODY PROUD. Not a patch on any of these fabulous women, or puppies, but fuck it

They need to be inspirational or to identify as inspirational breakfast. We're inclusive and progressive here
