Men socialize by insulting each other, but they don’t really mean it.

Women socialize by complimenting each other, and they don’t mean it either. 😂

FIRST OF ITS KIND IN AFRICA
Nigeria’s 🇳🇬 ‘Broomzillas’ became the first curlers from the African continent to compete in the sport at the 2024 Winter Youth Olympic event in South Korea. Despite not being able train on ice in Nigeria yet, the team members are optimistic about the future.

Good luck 👏👏

1/ In the last few days I have been asked by several people:

"When did the Israelites appear in Palestine? Are they indigenous or did they come from somewhere else?".

The answer is given by a series of archaeological and epigraphic findings.

[Joshua Smith from Break The Cycle @JoshuaAtLarge]

22 years ago, today, I was a 17 year old homeless youth, sleeping on the garage floor of a friend's house. My friend woke me up to show me the north tower of the world trade center engulfed in flames. I asked him what movie it was, and he assured me it was real life. At 6 am western time, I watched the second plane hit the south tower. I would sit there and watch the coverage for most of the day. I felt sick watching the towers fall and knowing how many Americans were losing their lives.

This event would set into motion a change inside me that led me to join the military several months later. I could not fathom the attack on my countrymen and knew I had to go and protect my friends and family from the evil terrorists who had planned and executed this attack.

Within 4 months of entering boot camp, I was on an aircraft carrier soon headed on a year-long cruise to decomission the USS Constellation. Secretly, I was relieved to know that we were not headed into a war and excited to do a year-long world cruise that would let me see the world.

We first pulled into Hong Kong. Only my second time out of the US and the first time not in Mexico. I was enamored by the culture change, even if only able to enjoy it for 6 days. Next, we went to Singapore. It was a fine city.

Following our departure from Singapore, we were told we would be doing a routine patrol of the Persian Gulf. We transited the straight of Hormuz. A truly butt clenching time, as you are told about the amount of scud misses pointed at your floating city. It was the first time I realized there were people in the world who did not want the American military state around them.

Upon our entrance into the Gulf, for a "routine" patrol, George Bush decided that Iraq had enough time to get rid of perceived weapons of mass destruction, and he declared war on Iraq. Unilaterally and without congressional approval.

My battle group was just around 700 miles from Baghdad, and we picked up the call, dropping millions of tons of ordinance on Baghdad. It was the first time in my life when I thought about the cost of war. Prior to dropping hell from the sky, our pilots would drop huge drums of leaflets that had cartoon characters and writing on them telling people to leave their homes. A warning that I hope the American people never get.

Following the leaflet drops, our 100 aircraft would spend the next two days leaving the deck full of ordinance and coming back entirely empty. All day and night.

All I could think about was the people of Baghdad. There are families, children, and family pets. People had goals and dreams. They woke up every morning and put on work boots just like I do now, and we were leveling their city. I thought about what I would do if that happened where I grew up. How I would feel.

THEY DIDN'T EVEN DO 9/11, and we were fighting a war against them. The US government had used a national tragedy to get full-scale support for a war in a country that had absolutely nothing to do with it.

22 years later, we have had a 21 year war that we couldn't win that netted us nothing as a nation, and a decimation of much of Iraq over claims of weapons of mass destruction that never existed.

All of this, because of an attack that was a direct result of blowback from our disastrous foreign policy to begin with.

Thankfully, I found the good Dr. Ron Paul in 2007 to help guide my belief that wars of aggression will never be prosperous and just for the American people, and he would set in to motion the next 2 decades of my life as a vocal antiwar activist.

In 2023, it's long past time to stop with the constant warfare. The US people are sick of it. The countries around the world that have been affected by our foreign policy are sick of it.

The best way to remember the victims of 9/11 and the 100s of thousands lost in the ensuing wars is to stop fighting them. Bring our troops home. Let them heal and be with their families. Let the world heal.

She may laugh.

Buying stocks in Nigeria - filling forms, following up stockbrokers, registrars, and banks is so so analogue. Tedious!
Shame on all the “intelligent” stakeholders who “manage” this archaic system in a digital 2023. Disgraceful! 👎😅

[Dr. Nicole LePera @Theholisticpsyc]

The silent treatment is a normalized form of emotional abuse. Part of maturing is learning how to communicate, rather than using silence as punishment.

Peter Obi likes peaceful violence: Baba said Pele was a great football star in the past, but should we use because of this and field him in today's match? 😂

Elephants are tremendous distance swimmers. They can swim for up to six hours and 25 miles. They are so buoyant that if they tire in the water, they can rest just by floating and will not sink. They can also use their trunk as a snorkel and dive. 🐘

God makes a table for you in the presence of your enemies. Simply give God thanks. You never have to gloat in their misery. Simply grow & glow. God got this. Humble. Grateful. Faithful. Tests come to see if you can let it go & show compassion too. Then you get even more blessings
