[د.وفاء سبيتي @DrWafaaa]

يسهل على الإنسان أن يقول ما يؤمن به، لكن الأصعب أن يعيش ما يقوله. فالكلمات قد تُقال في لحظة، أما الأفعال فهي التي تكشف حقيقة ما في القلب والعقل.

[Pedro Sánchez @sanchezcastejon]

The world, Europe, and Spain have faced this critical moment before. In 2003, a few irresponsible leaders dragged us into an illegal war in the Middle East that brought nothing but insecurity and pain.

Our response then must be our response now:

NO to violations of international law.

NO to the illusion that we can solve the world’s problems with bombs.

NO to repeating the mistakes of the past.

NO TO WAR.

قرأت جملة لشمس التبريزي يقول فيها
أحيانًا، يقتلع الله جذورك من أرضٍ اعتدتها، ليزرعك في تربة أنقى، فتظن أنك فقدت؛ بينما الحقيقة أنك بدأت تنبت من جديد .

If you're bored, create something.

Anything.

Software. Designs. Photos. Videos. Writing. A business. A body. A relationship. A mind.

How can you not be excited to wake up when you have the ability to create.

Be teachable. You’re not always right.

[Rabbi David Mivasair @RabbiMivasair]

I was right there in 1971. The whole area was rubble of Palestinian houses that had been demolished after the families living in them were thrown out so Jews could have more room to pray at the Wall.
I didn't really know what I was seeing. Now I understand clearly.
There is no "holiness" in a house built on stolen land.

Zohran Mamdani has declared he will arrest Benjamin Netanyahu in America, defying the fact that the U.S. does not acknowledge the International Criminal Court.

[Shadow of Ezra @ShadowofEzra]

Orthodox Jews in New York City are voting for Zohran Mamdani because they believe he is speaking out against Israeli war crimes.

These Orthodox Jews want New Yorkers to vote for what is in the best interest of the city they live in and not for a foreign country.

They claim Zionists have hijacked their religion to decide what is antisemitic and what's not.

BREAKING 🚨 Zohran Mamdani wins election and becomes New York City’s first Muslim Mayor.

Humanoids were long a thing of sci-fi, then they were a thing of research, but today, with the launch of NEO, humanoids become a product.

NEO is the first step on a journey towards a more abundant future and we’re excited for you to join us on this journey. Order your NEO today.

The stories we tell ourselves shape everything. Not circumstances but the narrative in our heads about what's possible.

[Sam Altman @sama]

One of the most fun parts of OpenAI is watching people here level up so fast and do such excellent work.

We are operating at a high level across many different disciplines and many of the people doing it have never done it before, and joined us at the beginning of their career.

If you believe in people and give them a lot of responsibility and support (and pick the right people to bet on) you will be surprised on the upside more often than you think.

I would love to see more companies operate this way and think we would all benefit.

(This was also one of the most fun parts of startup investing.)

You can't make time go faster or success come sooner. The only thing you can control is the next action.

[Mohamed Salah @MoSalah]

Can you tell us how he died, where, and why?

[Shaiel Ben-Ephraim @academic_la]

Mamdani is cruising to an easy win—he’s way ahead and has that deal with Lander locked down. It won’t even be close. The irony? Zionists turned this into a referendum on Zionism and lost in the most Jewish city in America. That’s spectacular. You brought this on yourselves with your hateful Islamophobia.

[Cynthia Nixon @CynthiaNixon]

Zohran Mamdani, a Muslim democratic socialist has won the NYC primary for Mayor!!!!!!
