'Mahama is losing control of his ministers' 😂

There's a word for that, and it's called incompetence. It's like the wild west out there.

[Nickyy 😔 @Replay_remix]

As you're busy hustling, there's probably a relative somewhere who's just having kids, with the hope that you'll help them take care of the kids

[Kye @GxldSociety]

You can tell when somebody has genuinely worked on themselves. Their energy feels calmer.

[Benson @boybenson_]

Yes.

[Thank You Mo ❤️❤️❤️❤️ Δ @agyeitah]

@kwabenaboatman But bro do you genuinely believe that Ronaldo is better than Messi?

Like in your heart of heart?

[Kwabena Boat 🇬🇭 @kwabenaboatman]

Ronaldo spent most of his peak international years trying to qualify Portugal to major International Tournaments from playoffs. But you guys dey tell me say they were a football powerhouse. A country that had appeared at five Euros and World Cups combined as at the year 2000. 👍🏽

[Weffrey Jellington @jeffwellz]

This is why some foot soldiers don’t believe you can truly be neutral because all of them have their entire sustenance tied to their political party.

[Asmit @coolcoder56]

This resume of my friend got shortlisted at google off campus.

Idk how

[The Fred Effect @MrPhr3d]

If applications open on August 1, 2026, and close on January 2, 2027.

When is the best time to submit your application?

[Benson @boybenson_]

Hmm

[Deep philosophy @DeepPhilo_HQ]

"Nature does not punish the evil, it punishes the weak."

- Nietzsche

[Mehul Mohan @mehulmpt]

Recent Vite acquisition by Cloudflare made me remember about Snowpack.

The wild speedup of your dev environment shifting from webpack to Snowpack was insane. Vite made that stable, standardised, and truly polished.

One of the best toolings of the web, and a great purchase.

[Manoj Kumar @manojdotdev]

Weekends should be for this

[The Scientific Lens @LensScientific]

Any fool can know. The point is to understand.
