“You may encounter many defeats, but you must not be defeated. In fact, it may be necessary to encounter the defeats, so you can know who you are, what you can rise from, how you can still come out of it.”
— Maya Angelou
Personally, I’ve been cutting back a lot.
The world feels like a very uncertain and increasingly unlivable planet.
There’s no way I am having children in this, and there’s no way I’m making any uncertain long-term investments for a while.
This is crazy
The infrared close-up satellite images of Jamaica continue to show clouds bringing overcast skies and/or thundershowers mainly to sections of some northern parishes on this Sunday afternoon, September 20, 2026 at 3:25 PM.
#Cayman cost of living is not for the faint of heart.
CI$1 = US$1.20
Even with a stronger currency, converting these into USD must hurt, no matter how well you are paid.
Yesterday, the Ministry of Economic Growth and Infrastructure Development was on site in Cooper’s Pen alongside HEART/NSTA, NHT, NIRa and the Ministry of Labour and Social Security, assisting affected families with relocation and access to support, including grants of up to $800,000 to help them get back on their feet.
Minister without Portfolio in the Ministry of Economic Growth and Infrastructure Development with responsibility for Land Titling and Settlements, Hon. Robert Montague, Permanent Secretary Williams and MP Tova Hamilton also visited the relocation sites to assess the progress and ensure the necessary support is being provided.
Our focus remains on helping affected families through this transition, providing practical assistance and supporting them as they rebuild and move ahead.

Celine Dion was still full of so much energy after her Paris concert last night that she climbed on top of a BMW barefoot and kept the tunes coming 💕✨

You make a ridiculous take, Double down on the ridiculous take, The internet destroys you, Make a long post about what u really meant blah blah, Then look sympathy to say you coming off the platform. If you want to go, go, nobody cares, no need to announce
Dervin Saint Paul has just acknowledged and admitted that he has been denigrating me publicly.
Now what is Dervin denigrating me publicly for?
I said he has not been kind/been quite unkind to me in past tweets and subtweets. I stand 10 toes down on that.
I tried ignoring Dervin but it has been non-stop denigration and harassment since.
Does Dervin treat men in the same way? Not in the least.
A man accused Dervin of being a paid political hack and his only response was “you get paid?”
And Dervin moved on. He did not harass the man, abuse the man nor denigrate the man. He didn’t even call him a liar.
But Dervin has saved all his energy and strength to viciously bully me for saying he has not been kind. Not only is Dervin not kind, this is vulgar misogyny and malice.
Jamaica has a serious problem with violence against women and I do verily believe that it is normalized dysfunction like this that fans the flames.
