Being loved and spoilt by God is incomparable 🦋 Only get busy when painting, coloring, doing jigsaw puzzles or biking with my Brothers ✨

[Bagaya BT @bagayaAtwiine]

On my end, only thing that woulda made me want to be with a man is being adored &spoiled effortlessly but, the gentlemen in my family gladly do that consistently with NO EXPECTATIONS hence a bf/husband is pointless to me.
So I understand men. I would hate to do any work too🤷🏽‍♀️

[CUNTISSIMO 🖤 @SHADESOFTAEMIN]

@YouDunnoVusi Everyday I’m reminded that men just want the perks of having a girlfriend without putting the effort in to maintaining a relationship. Ugh.

[Cogito, Ergo Sum @ItsMeGitau]

This is something I used to ask myself until I realised that we live in a low-trust society.

It's often easier to scam Westerners precisely because they come from high-trust societies, and we mistake that trust for stupidity.

Take the US, for example. You can print your own check, deposit a check by simply taking a picture with your banking app, and even start using some of the money before the check has fully cleared. You don't even have to visit a bank.

Compare that with most parts of Africa, where something as simple as forgetting your banking app password can mean physically visiting a bank branch with all your identification documents.

We have become so accustomed to suspicion and distrust that we mistake our cunningness for intelligence and other people's trust for foolishness.

We think we are smarter because we are harder to fool, without realising that we have built societies where nobody trusts anybody.

Types of Material Damage

🔹Chip
= A small piece breaks off the edge or surface of something hard (especially ceramic, glass, or stone).
Example:
“Be careful; the plate has a chip on the rim.”
✍️You can say “a chip” (noun) or “to chip” (verb).

🔹Peel
= A thin outer layer comes off in sheets or flakes (like paint, wallpaper, or skin).
Example:
“The paint is starting to peel off the wall.”
✍️Related word: peeling.

🔹Fray
= Fibers or threads of fabric, rope, or carpet start to unravel and come apart.
Example:
“The end of the rope is fraying.”
✍️Often used with clothes or ropes.

🔹Shatter
= Something hard and brittle (especially glass) breaks suddenly into many sharp pieces.
Example:
“The window shattered when the ball hit it.”
✍️This is usually a sudden, dramatic break.

🔹Splinter
= Wood or similar material breaks into long, sharp, thin pieces.
Example:
“The wooden post splintered when the tree fell on it.”
✍️A “splinter” is also the small sharp piece itself (you can get a splinter in your finger).

🔹Warp
= Something bends or twists out of its normal shape, often because of heat, moisture, or age.
Example:
“The plastic tray warped in the hot sun.”
✍️Wood and plastic often warp.

🔹Corrode
= Metal is slowly eaten away by rust or chemicals (especially iron and steel).
Example:
“The old pipe has corroded and needs to be replaced.”
✍️Rust is the most common type of corrosion.

🔹Rot
= Organic material (especially wood) breaks down and decays because of moisture, bacteria, or fungus.
Example:
“The wooden beam has started to rot.”
✍️You can see fungus growing on the rotting wood in the picture.

🔹Crumble
= Something dry and solid falls apart into small pieces or powder (like old concrete, brick, or dry cake).
Example:
“The concrete steps are crumbling.”
✍️It can be gradual.

✍️Extra Tips✍️
🔸Most of these words can be used as both verbs and nouns:
Verb: “The glass shattered.”
Noun: “There is a big shatter in the window.” (less common, but “chip,” “fray,” and “splinter” work well as nouns)
🔸These words are very common when describing:
Household damage
Construction or building problems
Old or neglected objects
Insurance claims
🔸Useful collocations (words that often go together):
chip a plate / a chipped plate
peeling paint
frayed edges
shattered glass
splintered wood
warped floorboards
corroded metal / rusted pipe
rotten wood
crumbling concrete / walls

The secret to being a private person is to overshare dumb shit so people think you are an open book but then not tell them any of the important details of your life.

[Ray in Idaho @AtholRay1951]

I am a Grandpa. Door Dash, Uber eats and Starbucks and all the media people pay for could not have existed when I was younger. Noone was willing to give up their home ownership to pay for it. People today have been brainwashed by media think instant gratification is a lifestyle.
These people also seem to feel entitled to take what I worked forand saved for to support their life style.

[Carolina @evrydaysagift2]

Amen! Im sick of people bitching they cant buy a home too. We didnt take lavish vacations, we didnt go out to eat, if we had a dog, it was a rescue or a mutt not a $4500 doodle -well technically that is a mutt. No Starbucks. No tats. No door dash. No Whole Foods. I bought my mom's used station wagon. Was it sexy? Nope but it got me from point A to point B.
Sick of kids blaming boomers for them not being able to buy a home. Not listening.

[JoyAnn @JoyceS763]

QUIT YOUR BITCHING!!!!!!
Grandpa didn’t have a $90 month internet bill, a $130 phone bill, seven app subscriptions at $72 month, an Amazon addiction for $200 month, he didn’t have Netflix, Paramount or HBO for another $112 month and his haircuts didn’t need a ‘stylist’!
I’m worn out hearing people moan, “Our grandparents could buy a house on one paycheck, but now we can’t even afford rent on two!”
Yeah, maybe because Grandma wasn’t dropping half her income on $14 iced lattes and avocado toast shaped like art projects. Back then, if they wanted coffee, they boiled it at home in a dented pot. It tasted like burnt rubber and regret — but it woke you up and cleaned your pipes.
And Grandma wasn’t “out to brunch.” You think she had time for mimosas and hashtags? She was making something called whatever’s left in the fridge and feeding six people with it.
Don’t even start with Uber Eats. You think Grandpa was out here paying $38 to have a burger delivered three blocks away? Please. He grilled mystery meat on a rusted barbecue, and everyone called it dinner.
Now people cry about being broke while sitting in a house full of gadgets. Two SUVs in the driveway, six streaming services, three air fryers, and matching tattoos that cost more than their light bill. You think Grandpa had a tattoo? He did. It said “Korea, 1951,” and it came with trauma, not Instagram likes.
And the kids—Lord help us. “We can’t make ends meet, but Brayden needs the new iPhone!” No, he doesn’t. You’re handing an $1100 device to a child who still eats crayons and forgets to flush.
When we were kids, there was one phone. It hung on the wall like a family relic. The cord stretched just far enough for you to whisper secrets before someone yelled, “Get off, I need to make a call!” And guess what? We lived.
The TV? One. In the living room. With three channels and a dial that clicked like a safe. And if Dad wanted to watch bowling, you were a fan of bowling, end of story.
Now there’s a flat screen in every room, the baby’s got an iPad, the dog’s got a camera, and everyone’s wondering why they can’t afford rent.
Because you’re living like rock stars on retail salaries, that’s why.
Grandpa wasn’t leasing Teslas or buying $12 smoothies called “Green Zen Awakening.” He drove a truck that coughed smoke, rattled like a storm, and smelled like oil and hard work.
They lived within their means. Whatever Grandpa brought home on Friday — that’s what they had. They weren’t keeping up with the Joneses; they were keeping the lights on.
So yeah, Grandpa bought a house on one salary. But he also didn’t have a gym membership, three delivery apps, and emotional support crystals on his nightstand. His only support system was Grandma, who told him to quit whining and mow the yard.
Nowadays, everyone’s broke, anxious, and “manifesting abundance” while ordering tacos on DoorDash for the fourth time this week.
It’s not the economy — it’s the lifestyle.
Wake up, turn off your subscriptions, make your own coffee, and maybe—just maybe—you’ll smell the truth.

Moved into a new place, bought 5 units → finished overnight.
Topped up again → same story.
Later found out landlord was running his water pump on my meter.

I lived 5 days with no light, no water… then mandem cut off the illegal connection

[The Accountant @theaccountant91]

Anyone who disagrees with you has probably never done business. Even in a functioning society with good systems in place, running a business is one of the hardest ways to make money. Let me correct the argument: working from 8 am to 5 pm with a high salary is EASIER than running your own business.

[Ariwodo @Ariwodo_]

Unpopular opinion: Working from 8am to 5pm with a high salary is better than having your own business.
