@F1 my husband is asking if the cars could have a small bumper around the outside of the vehicles to allow for a bit more contact? He says this will encourage overtaking. #f1

I feel like the whole world just got told off from their mom (#KateMiddleton) and now we need to all sit in the corner and think about what we’ve done.

This win means so much for South Africa ❤️

The Springboks win the World Cup.

The first country to win 4 World Cups.

The only country to never lose a final. 4 finals.

The only country to win two World Cups in the same country on FOREIGN soil (2007 in France, 2023 in France). New Zealand won two of theirs on home ground.

The Springboks win three of their World Cups on foreign soil.

The Boks would be the second country to win back to back titles after the ABs.

South Africa now has won 50% of the World Cups it’s been part of.

The Boks had toughest path to a final win in the history of World Cup sports, because we played all top 6 ranked countries on our way to winning the Cup.

We played the number 6th, 5th, 4th, 3rd and 2nd ranked sides in the world.

The All Blacks also become the first country to ever score a try in a final against The Springboks.

The New Zealand All Blacks are also the only country to lose their opening match and then lose a final.

The All Blacks are without doubt the greatest rugby playing nation on earth, but South Africa are the greatest World Cup nation on earth.

Thread on how Amazon treats its workers

Context:
Amazon full-time warehouse employees make $31,200 a year. Jeff Bezos makes that every 12 seconds.

Cost to give warehouse workers 2 weeks paid sick leave + pay bumps so they don't qualify for food stamps = 0.9% of Bezos' fortune

Overheard at the Women’s @cricketworldcup Aus vs. Eng match:

Daughter: “is America playing”
Mom: “they’re too stupid to play this game”
Daughter: “what are they good at?”
Mom: “being racist”

I recently learned something mindblowing about the geological history of the Mediterranean Sea, and I just can't get it out of my head.

Now I'm going to make it *your* problem too. Sorry.

Hang onto your hat. This is wild.

there is nothing i won't do to make sure the waiter likes me. i will sell out everyone at the table. "i'm so sorry about them" even if they're being totally normal. nothing matters more to me. i would give it all away.

Can we all just take a minute to recognise how much we rely on #zuckerberg to communicate with friends/family around the world. Surely there are other ways? Let me know. I don’t need all my eggs in his basket. Thanks.

Honestly, being a Maid of Honour should be recognised on your CV under all of the following: budget management; team management; event planning, and; logistics coordination.
