My wife lost her memory 4 years ago. My son and I took her to a Neurologist. When my son stepped out to take a call, the doctor leaned close and whispered, “Keep your wife away from your son.”
Then, my son walked back in, holding something, and my heart nearly Stopped...

🚨 David Beckham on Cape Verde’s elimination after pushing Argentina to extra time in the FIFA World Cup:
🗣️ “This is the cruelest side of football. Cape Verde have been eliminated, but they leave this tournament with something far more important than just a scoreline—they leave with the respect of the entire football world. They took the defending world champions all the way into extra time and made Argentina fight for every single minute. Nobody expected that before kick-off.
When I think about this performance, I think about Vozinha first. His saves kept Cape Verde alive when many teams would have collapsed. Then you have Deroy Duarte and Sydney Lopes, two players who will forever be remembered in their country’s football history. They scored against Argentina, they believed when so many people doubted them, and they gave millions of Cape Verdeans a night they will never forget.
People will only remember that Argentina qualified, but those who truly understand football will remember how close Cape Verde came to creating one of the greatest upsets in World Cup history. They never hid, they never stopped running, and they never accepted that they were supposed to lose. Every challenge, every tackle, every attack showed a team playing with pride, courage, and absolute belief.
This is not a story of failure. This is a story of a nation announcing itself to the football world. Cape Verde arrived at this World Cup as outsiders, but they leave having proven they belong on the biggest stage. They stretched the world champions to their absolute limit, forced them into extra time, and made them earn every second of their qualification.
Football can be incredibly unfair. Sometimes the team that captures the hearts of everyone watching is not the team that advances. But no whistle can erase what Cape Verde have achieved. Vozinha, Deroy Duarte, Sydney Lopes, and every player wearing that shirt have inspired a generation. Argentina continue their journey, but Cape Verde leave this World Cup as heroes.”
one thing I always do is bombard my partner, ok ? mme ntse wa goroga. I can talk about 2 things at once now without him getting too confused. In 3 months, we’ll move on to 3. 😂
I’m just so tired at this point. Tired of things always going wrong, service providers treating me like shit, friends doing the same, the universe just constantly taking a wrong turn. I don’t have the strength to bear any of it anymore.
Wait, I just heard on a podcast that people who wear braces have to wear a retainer after their braces are taken off….for the rest of their life to keep their teeth straight. Is this true? Brace faces tap in.
