In response to the tweet, many of Jamil’s followers shared how their attitudes to ageing had been shaped by the experiences in their lives – and celebrated the signs of ageing as “signs of a life well lived”.

“I have a co-worker who is incredibly concerned (way more than I’ll ever be) about how my resting face isn’t neutral and I have a line across my forehead,” one response read. “As someone who lost both parents before they hit 65, my biggest concern with ageing is not doing so.”

“‘Haha you’re still alive’ – what people are actually saying when they make fun of ageing,” read another.
