Me in a nutshell... so true. And also, having a birthday on the 3rd of January is like, after all the money has been spent, so you learn not to expect much really...
Physiological Truths About Men Who Treat Their Birthdays Like a Normal Day
1. They’re used to doing life alone.
From childhood, nobody really made a big deal out of their special moments — so they learned not to expect anything.
2. They’re naturally low-maintenance.
Gifts, parties, noise — it’s never been their thing. Peace is their real celebration.
3. They pour into others more than they receive.
They’re the “strong one,” the one everyone calls… but when it’s their turn, they don’t want to feel like a burden.
4. They’ve learned to make themselves happy.
A quiet meal, a prayer, a moment alone — it’s enough. They’re used to creating their own joy.
5. They measure life in progress, not dates. To them, a new year is not about cake 🎂 it’s about whether they’ve grown, improved, or achieved.
Why No African Team Is Ever Winning The World Cup: Senegal Edition
Senegal walked onto the World Cup pitch with AFCON champions, Premier League stars, and Sadio Mané.
Norway walked onto the same pitch with Erling Haaland. On paper, it was a fair fight. But the scoreline told a different story.
Before a single ball was kicked, Senegal's camp was in complete disarray. Head coach Pape Thiaw had been working without a contract since February and was owed five months of unpaid salary.
Players had not received their bonuses for winning the Africa Cup of Nations or for qualifying for the World Cup.
There was no team chef, forcing players to order takeaway from outside the hotel just to eat properly.
Meanwhile, federation officials brought their own families to America on the federation's budget.
Norway had one of the most meticulously prepared camps at the tournament. Fully funded. Fully staffed. The contrast was embarrassing.
Africa will keep producing world-class players. The question is whether the federations will ever match that quality.

The Zimbabwean Senate has voted in favour of the controversial Constitution Amendment Bill (No. 3) by 75 votes to 4, with one abstention. The opposition CCC, which has 27 senators in the 80-member chamber, voted alongside ZANUPF.
The bill seeks to extend the presidential term from five years to seven years, provide for the future election of a president by Parliament rather than through a direct popular vote, and make a number of other far reaching constitutional changes.
The vote means that the bill now awaits the signature of Zimbabwean President Emmerson Mnangagwa before becoming law.
Its passage marks one of the most significant constitutional changes in Zimbabwe’s recent history and is likely to remain the subject of intense political, legal and constitutional debate.
The bill also seeks to allow Mnangagwa to influence the selection of his successor and potentially block his deputy, General Constantino Chiwenga, from succeeding him.
If and when Mnangagwa signs it into law and there is no significant resistance from within ZANUPF, the military or broader society, it will signal a major setback to Chiwenga’s presidential ambitions, short of an intervention that changes the political landscape.
More importantly, it will represent a further consolidation of ZANUPF’s hold on power and diminish the prospects of Zimbabwe having a president from outside the ruling party in the foreseeable future.
The self evident story is how Mnangagwa has been assisted by influential business interests, including wealthy individuals aligned with ZANUPF, who may have more to lose from a Chiwenga presidency than from the continuation of the current political order.
The only developments that could realistically halt this process would be a military intervention and a sustained national uprising. At present, however, all of these possibilities appear distant from political reality.
A scene from the new movie Citizen Vigilante starring Armie Hammer.
The movie will not be released in Germany or the UK because it's deemed "too controversial"
It deals with the subject of mass migration and the issues surrounding it.
Today, on the 24th of June, Commander Sonia Marrion approached the Munhumutapa building with a message on behalf of #WeThePeople. She boldly asked the Head of State to call for a referendum before assenting to CAB3. She further advised Emmerson that if he chooses to abdicate from his duties, #WeThePeople will not hesitate to organize a People’s Referendum and go on to restore constitutional order in this Republic.
Zviri pa2... On one end of the spectrum you have these lovely independent ladies and on the other, those that will be dependent. The are expectations on one end because of said dependency and the other, not so much because... They don't need you and all is fair and equal. However both sides have certain drawbacks and extremes and ultimately it also depends on the type of guy you are for things to work in any resulting relationship. #CloseToMidnight #NdiniNdadaro
WATCH | Tafadzwa Matanhuse from Chiredzi is expected to appear in court this morning. Police issued a warrant for his arrest after a video surfaced in which he passionately expressed his frustration over the destruction of vendors’ stalls by the Chiredzi Town Council.
After learning that the police were looking for him, Tafadzwa voluntarily handed himself over yesterday. He was accompanied by his legal representative, Martin Mureri.
Police have charged Tafadzwa with inciting public violence. The charge is linked to statements he made following the demolition of the vendors’ stalls, an action that affected the livelihoods of many people who depend on informal trading to support their families.
The left just normalized so much insanity that basic self-preservation now gets called “far right extremism.”
Decades of open borders and failed assimilation delivered parallel societies, welfare strain, and crime spikes in city after city.
Green fanaticism delivered energy poverty and deindustrialization while virtue signaling.
Woke ideology delivered confused kids, erased women, and attacks on national identity.
And the result is voters across France, Germany, Italy, Poland, the UK and beyond are backing the parties the media smears as “far right.”
Those parties are simply saying what was common sense centrist a generation ago.
Secure borders. Citizens first. Affordable energy. Law and order. Protect children. Preserve your culture.
The Overton window got dragged so far left that reality, sanity, and common sense now look radical.
