[Shahriq Khan @RealShahriqKhan]

As an Ex-Muslim, let me explain Muhammad and “The Satanic Verses” in the Quran. 

This will shock you.

was a good prophet until he wasn't. I wanted to believe he was sincere, that maybe he was just misunderstood, maybe he repented later on in his life. 

But the more I studied the timeline of his ministry, the harder it was to ignore the shift.

Early Muhammad in Mecca preached peace, talked about one God, and tried to win over Jews and Christians. But later in Medina, that’s when it changed.

Suddenly, it transitioned to power and polygamy and violence, and revelations started sounding a lot like personal convenience. Then there’s a part nobody really wants to talk about in apologetics - “the Satanic verses.”

Ibn Ishaq, Islam’s earliest biographer, says Muhammad delivered verses that glorified pagan idols and then blamed it on Satan. And you tell me, how does a prophet mistake a demon’s voice for God’s?

Imagine if Paul or Peter did that.

Imagine if Jesus said, “oops, that part was from the devil.”

You would never trust that message again. But with Muhammad, there’s a double standard where you’re not allowed to question. Even when he married a child, took extra wives, and had people killed, you’re told to submit.

And that’s when I knew.

A real prophet doesn’t serve himself.

He sacrifices himself to serve others.

Only one man in history never changed under pressure and still laid down his life.

And that’s Jesus Christ.

Adultery is sin.
Porn is sin.
Lust is sin.
Sex outside of marriage is sin.

God designed sex for one man and one woman in marriage for life. Following his Word prevents broken hearts, diseases, and destroyed homes. His law is for our good.

i went to https://t.co/0yaHjrptb3. opened the page source. found a hardcoded API key in the javascript. copied it. sent one GET request.

got back 959 email addresses and 3,165 internal feature flags.

employees from Home Depot. Fortinet. Autodesk. Tenable. Rakuten. Mayo Clinic. Permira. Akin Gump. government workers from Wyoming, Arkansas, North Carolina, Montana, Queensland Australia, and New Zealand. a Microsoft contractor. 71 clickup employees.

fortinet sells enterprise firewalls. tenable makes Nessus, the vulnerability scanner half the industry runs. their employees emails are exposed because clickup hardcoded a third party API key in a javascript file that loads before you even log in.

this was first reported to clickup through hackerone on January 17, 2025. its now April 2026. the key has not been rotated. i just pulled the response five minutes ago. every email is still there.

clickup raised $535 million at a $4 billion valuation. claims 85% of the Fortune 500 use their platform. looks like the proof is in the page source.

Cardi B said she doesn’t cook. She doesn’t clean but she’ll tell young black women how she got her ring.

Few years later. She doesn’t have any ring & is a baby mama of 4 kids. 2 different absent dads.

Megan Thee Stallion brags about how she puts men on rotation & how you don’t need a man in her songs but is crashing out after being cheated on.

These are the women young black girls look up to. 💔💔

[Adamski Jahman @jahman_adamski]

Wicknell Chivayo is renting a jet from Bestfly Aruba at the moment, while his usual plane — ZS-ACT — sits grounded in Basel, conveniently parked there for what he is calling “maintenance.” The timeline just doesn’t sit right with me. There are far too many red flags.

I’m not letting this one go. I’ll keep a close eye on him because nobody casually burns through millions every single week unless that money isn’t really theirs to begin with.

What truly bothers me is how neatly Chivayo has fitted into a system that’s essentially helping the country steal from itself. Let me walk you through how this actually plays out.

Back in early 2024, the Zimbabwe Defence Industries had already vetted a legitimate supplier for auxiliary ammunition and equipment. The quote was a clean US$20 million. Treasury sat on the payment for a while, and then — surprise — the same request suddenly reappears, but now with Chivayo as the lead supplier. The price for the exact same goods? It jumps straight to $69 million. Just like magic.

The RBZ IT systems upgrade followed a painfully similar script. A capable company won the tender fairly at $10 million. Then, without much explanation, the contract gets cancelled. The original winner was reportedly pressured to drop their legal challenge, after being assured a new tender would be issued. When that “new” tender finally dropped in mid-2024, Chivayo walked away with it at $50 million — five times the original price. And here’s the part that really gets me: the same experts who had quoted $10 million were quietly brought back as subcontractors to do the actual work for their original fee, while Chivayo kept the $40 million markup for himself.

Just those two deals alone siphoned off roughly $89 million in pure profit from the public purse.

Now stack that against the way he’s living. Spending millions buying cars as gifts. He spent $750,000 on a Bentley and is burning $10,000 an hour renting a Gulfstream. Even with all that lavish spending, he’s barely touched 1% of the money he made from those two contracts.

That’s not the mark of a genuine businessman. This is someone living like royalty on the backs of ordinary Zimbabwean taxpayers — a flashy distraction funded by the very people getting fleeced & unfortunately the very people cheering him on!

And honestly, that’s the saddest part of all: the nation is slowly but surely robbing itself through its own procurement systems.

🧵 THREAD

1/ Your daughter posts something online.

She is 19. In college. Trying to figure out what she believes. She shares a political opinion that an algorithm flags as problematic.

You do not see it happen. No one notifies you. No one tells her.

But 72 hours later, her bank account is frozen. Her student loans are suspended. Her digital ID shows a compliance violation.

And there is nothing you can do to protect her.

[Glenn Meder @GlennMeder]

12/ The people you love are not safe just because they stay quiet.

They are one algorithm away from being flagged. One post away from being frozen out. One decision away from being targeted — and you will not be able to protect them.

This thread is not hypothetical. This infrastructure is being built right now. CBDCs. Digital IDs. AI surveillance. Social credit systems.

We have to stop it before it goes live. Before the people we love become leverage against us.

Share this thread. Make people see what is at stake. Show them that surveillance does not just threaten liberty — it weaponizes love.

Every day I share warnings like this. Context that exposes what is being built. Alarm bells that will not stop ringing until enough people wake up and stand against this system.

Follow me. Not because I have all the answers — but because the threat is real, the window is closing, and we need every voice willing to fight before it is too late.

Preserve Liberty by Preserving Privacy.

[Glenn Meder @GlennMeder]

6/ Your best friend refuses to comply with a new surveillance mandate.

He will not install the required app. He will not link his digital ID to his phone. He will not agree to location tracking.

He is not breaking the law. The mandate is not legally enforceable yet. But the system does not wait for laws.

His credit score drops. His lease is not renewed. His kids are denied enrollment in the public school. The algorithm has decided non-compliance is a risk factor.

[Nandi 🤍💜🤍 @pallnandi]

They hate to see a woman speaking highly of her man. Because it breaks the narrative that love has to be chaotic to be real. Respect, peace, and admiration don’t make it less powerful, they make it undeniable.

[Blondelady2024 @arva61138]

This is probably the best answer I've ever heard to the question, "Why did God create evil?"

A professor at the university asked his students the following question:

“Everything that exists was created by God?”
One student bravely answered:
“Yes, it was created by God.”

The professor asked :
“If God created everything, then God created evil, since it exists. And according to the principle that our deeds define ourselves, then God is evil.”

The student became silent after hearing such an answer. The professor was very pleased with himself. He boasted to students for proving once again that faith in God is a myth.

Another student raised his hand and said:
“Can I ask you a question, professor?”
"Of course," replied the professor.

“Professor, is cold a thing?”
“What kind of question is this? Of course it exists. Have you ever been cold?”
Students laughed at the young man's question.

The young man answered:
“Actually, sir, cold doesn't exist. According to the laws of physics, what we consider cold is actually the absence of heat. A person or object can be studied on whether it has or transmits energy.
Absolute zero (-460 degrees Fahrenheit) is a complete absence of heat. All matter becomes inert and unable to react at this temperature. Cold does not exist. We created this word to describe what we feel in the absence of heat.”

The student continued:
“Professor, does darkness exist?”
“Of course it exists.” said the professor.
“You're wrong again, sir. Darkness also does not exist. Darkness is actually the absence of light. We can study the light but not the darkness. We can use Newton's prism to spread white light across multiple colors and explore the different wavelengths of each color. You can't measure darkness. A simple ray of light can break into the world of darkness and illuminate it. How can you tell how dark a certain space is? You measure how much light is presented. Isn't it so? Darkness is a term man uses to describe what happens in the absence of light.”

In the end, the young man asked the professor:
“Sir, does evil exist?”
This time it was uncertain, the professor answered:
“Of course, as I said before. We see him every day. Cruelty, numerous crimes and violence throughout the world. These examples are nothing but a manifestation of evil.”

To this, the student answered:
“Evil does not exist, sir, or at least it does not exist for itself. Evil is simply the absence of God. It is like darkness and cold—a man-made word to describe the absence of God. God did not create evil. Evil is not faith or love, which exist as light and warmth. Evil is the result of the absence of Divine love in the human heart. It’s the kind of cold that comes when there is no heat, or the kind of darkness that comes when there’s no light.”

A 29-YEAR OLD woman from Masvingo, who was forced to lie on top of her husband while multiple ZANU-PF men raped her, also saw other MDC women raped by multiple men in 2008 at a ZANU-PF base: "The ringleaders then directed the ZANU-PF militia to rape whichever woman they had been assigned to while her husband laid face down underneath her serving as a “pillow.” The ringleaders instructed the women to take off all of their clothes. The six men assigned to me forced me to lie down where we stood. I did everything they said because I was very scared. I lay against my husband’s back and all six of the men who had been assigned to me took off their pants. One man pushed his penis into my vagina, another put his penis in my mouth, another on my ear, and the rest on other parts of my body. I began to cry in pain. As they raped me, they said I must join the ZANU-PF and defect from the MDC party. As this was happening, I could see and hear other women being raped around me simultaneously.

🚨🗣️ Zinedine Zidane on Madrid UCL exit against Bayern Munich

“People will try to break it down into moments, chances, or even luck, but sometimes it’s much simpler than that, Bayern Munich went through because they looked more like a team.

Yes, they have stars, Kane, Olise, Luis Diaz but the difference is in how they function. Movements are coordinated, pressing is collective, transitions are structured. Everyone knows their role, and more importantly, they trust the system.

On the other side, Real Madrid still have world-class individuals Kylian Mbappe, Vinicius Junior, players who can decide games on their own. But when the structure isn’t as cohesive, you start relying on moments instead of control.

And against a side like Bayern, that’s dangerous. Because while you’re waiting for magic, they’re building pressure, creating patterns, and slowly taking the game away from you.

It’s not about who has the bigger names, it’s about who plays better as a unit. And over two legs, cohesion almost always beats individual brilliance when it’s not backed by structure.

That’s what this felt like, not an upset, not even a shock. Just a team outperforming a collection of stars.”

Remember that 19 Yazidi girls were burned alive in iron cages by ISIS for refusing to convert to Islam and become sex slaves.

ISIS paraded them through the streets of Mosul, then burned them in front of hundreds of people.

Not a single Muslim or Palestinian activist protested for the Yazidis!
