@nishzilla What's the shift aspect of it?...Just curious! Otherwise as to the global insights of average Americans -- let alone their current leader -- well don't get me started...

@harishvasudevan Congratulations, Harish! I love the promotional video, too.

[Susan Jain @SusanMJain]

@parrysingh Touché! (Unfortunately, though I always have hope...)

@EvanKirstel Indian Republic Day Parade, no more no less. There's actually nothing like heading in to New Delhi when the camel units are also convening for the Parade. Jai Hind!

[Susan Jain @SusanMJain]

I'll have a cup of that!

And then there's this...worth a laugh at ourselves and our current sense of self-importance. #Democracy

[George Washington @realgwash1731]

Hello, peasants. I was rolling around in my grave and I have decided to resurrect. Great things to come!

As true today as when it was written in 1970. #Democracy #hope #character

On this day in 1970, Charles Schulz replied to a 10-year-old kid who had asked “What makes a good citizen?"

I am Senator Reverend Raphael Warnock, and I work for Georgia.

The most important right we have is the right to vote.

Today, this terminally guy in a wheelchair voted with my wife lifting my finger over and over.

I voted for my health care, my daughters and to prevent another mass shooting.

Make the future brighter: Vote.

Is it greed or ineptitude? -- you decide. In any case, don't call me surprised.

It would have been much more fun to talk about how great this lamp looks in my funky new bedroom than pointing out how deceptive this digital ad is. Despite what's said here, this item is excluded from the promotion. #badadvertising #katespade #cmo

In case this isn't being reported where you are....

#DonyaRad, the woman who posted a photo of herself having breakfast with a friend in a cafe in #Iran without hijab has been arrested.
Her family are very worried about her.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

Scientists have found evidence that those who cultivate love and compassion have greater peace of mind, while constant anger and fear make us uneasy and are bad for health. Common sense too tells us that people who are moved by love and compassion are peaceful and happy.

[Susan Jain @SusanMJain]

Compassion vs. Barbarity -- enough said. #kindness

[Jon Favreau @jonfavs]

Look at all these hypocritical Massachusetts liberals…welcoming immigrants with open arms.

Way to own the libs, DeSantis. You showed us.

[Stacey Abrams @staceyabrams]

My name is Stacey Abrams, and I'm running to make history and serve as the first Black woman governor our country has ever seen.

On the lighter side...it's a relief to find that The Rock and I have this in common.

And I was there to see the throw that catapulted him into 2nd place!

Congratulations @Neeraj_chopra1 & all of the finalists on a fabulous event. Kudos to all of my friends in India, & Indians around the world, on India's 1st Worlds medal since 2007! #WCHOregon22 #Oregon2022

[Neeraj Chopra @Neeraj_chopra1]

Struggled a bit with the conditions, but extremely happy to win a 🥈medal for India at the #WCHOregon22. Congratulations to Anderson Peters and Jakub Vadlejch on an incredible competition.

Thank you to everyone at home and at Hayward Field for your support. 🇮🇳

And now for something completely different -- guaranteed to bring a minute of joy to your weekend.

Enjoy!

And speaking of which....

[Andrea Junker @Strandjunker]

I need someone to explain to me why it’s always “if you can’t pay rent, buy fewer lattes and avocado toasts” and not “if you can’t pay your employees a living wage, buy fewer yachts, rockets and spacecraft”.

Explain it to me like I’m in kindergarten.

[Dalai Lama @DalaiLama]

Of course, we are driven by self-interest, it's necessary to survive. But we need wise self-interest that is generous and co-operative, taking others' interests into account. Co-operation comes from friendship, friendship comes from trust, and trust comes from kind-heartedness
