✨🇨🇳A traveler from Argentina shared her thoughts on China... with an immigration officer at customs. "China is a beautiful country," she said. "The people here are incredibly kind and helpful."

🇨🇳 CHINA BUILT A SOLAR EMPIRE ON THE ROOF... OF THE WORLD On the Tibetan Plateau, solar panels stretch farther than the eye can see - covering an area 7x the size of Manhattan. The Talatan Solar Park, plus wind and hydro, now powers everything from trains to AI data centers, while sheep still get to graze under the panels. Qinghai's clean energy is so cheap and efficient, it costs 40% less than coal, and helps China manufacture even more solar tech to sell worldwide. This is how China plans to win the future of energy: high-altitude, high-volume, and high stakes. Source: New York Timesshow more

This mom makes her eleven year old son walk... a mile around the neighborhood before he can have any screen time. She said she does this to regulate his mood and energy, to build discipline to let him know fun comes after the effort, not the other way around, and, it reduces arguments - you work first and then play later, the expectations are set. Many people focused on his walking around the neighborhood by himself but she says she lives in a neighborhood where she feels very comfortable. A lot of people applauded her for making her son get outside, that it was not only healthy for his body but for his mind as well. She said this is not a punishment. I think kids in this day and age need to be forced to get outside. Too many of us allow them to stare at screens all day long. I applaud her for her routine with her son. What do you think of her morning routine for her eleven year old son?show more

Is Scarlett still one of the top actress?? Scarlett... Johansson is the most over-protected major actress in Hollywood. The industry treats her like sacred ground while quieter, more interesting actresses get discarded. A huge part of her “legend” status comes from soft press, carefully managed image, and the fact that she rarely takes real risks anymore. Talent is there, but the untouchable reputation is manufactured. She’s coasting on longevity and good PR more than consistent greatness,show more

She Lived to 117. Scientists Studied Her for Months.... Her Secret Cost $2. Maria Branyas Morera ate three yogurts a day. Every single day, for as long as anyone could remember. She mentioned this to anyone who asked about her longevity, which was often, and it was the kind of advice people receive with a warm smile and then immediately discard, because we prefer our longevity secrets to involve something more exotic than a supermarket dairy aisle. Maria died in Barcelona in 2024. She was 117. Then scientists actually looked inside her, and the smiling stopped. Her gut was packed with Bifidobacterium, a bacterium almost never found in people past 110, and far more commonly associated with infants. Her body had, in the most literal biological sense, not been informed of her actual age. It was operating on entirely different assumptions. Her DNA suggested she was somewhere between 100 and 110. She was 117. Seven years younger on the inside than the calendar insisted, which at 117 is not a rounding error. That is a extraordinary number. But to appreciate why any of this matters, you need to understand what kind of person we are talking about. Maria was born in San Francisco in 1907, the year before the Model T Ford, when Theodore Roosevelt was still in the White House and most of humanity died of things we now treat with a Tuesday afternoon at the pharmacy. Her Catalan father had come to America to make something of himself, and for a while it worked beautifully. He founded a Spanish-language magazine in New Orleans, one of the most chaotic, beautiful, swampy, and gastronomically unhinged cities on the continent, a place that has always operated on the reasonable philosophy that life is uncertain and the gumbo is excellent. Then the family got on a boat back to Spain. Maria fell on deck and permanently lost the hearing in one ear. Her father died of tuberculosis before the coast of Catalonia came into view. He was 37. She was eight. Her mother arrived in Europe with five children, no husband, and presumably very little appetite for what came next. Maria managed. She nursed soldiers in the Spanish Civil War. She outlived Franco, which required considerable patience. She raised three children. She played piano until she was 108. At 113 she caught COVID-19 and dispatched it, which at that point resembles less a medical event than a statement of intent. Then she joined Twitter. Her bio read: “I am old, very old, but not an idiot.” Her last request, before she died peacefully in her sleep, was three words: “Please study me.” The geneticists obliged with considerable enthusiasm, and their subsequent paper in Cell Reports Medicine runs to forty pages of scientists explaining, in the careful and hedged language that science requires, that this woman was remarkable in ways they had not previously encountered and were not entirely sure how to explain. The yogurt, it turns out, had been doing quiet and serious work for over a century. Nomadic peoples of Central Asia were fermenting milk 8,000 years ago, long before germ theory, before microscopes, before anyone had the faintest idea what a bacterium was. They didn’t need to understand it. Their guts understood it. The knowledge was older than writing. Maria understood it too. She didn’t publish a paper. She didn’t launch a wellness brand. She just ate her yogurt every morning and got on with the extraordinary business of being alive. Gandalv / Gandalv ✦ AI-generated image. Not the actual person. Full story:show more

Today is Haruka's birthday! Someone who opens her own... birthday with an apology for being born. Who says 'sorry' more times in a day than most people do in a week — and yet, the moment it matters, steps forward without a second thought, for Aru's sake. She seems timid and bleak, but when something actually needs to be done, she moves more decisively than anyone. That's just how Haruka is. She also quietly tends to weeds that no one else would bother with. She said she relates to them — useless, a nuisance to others — but once you start taking care of something, it stops being a weed. Today might be a good day for Sensei to be the one to stop by first. There might be something other than an apology waiting on the other side. #BlueArchiveshow more

working from anywhere looks incredibly effortless from the outside... but the truth is, the freedom to choose your office requires a level of bts discipline that most people never see. it’s not about escaping the work; it’s about having the quiet authority to design a lifestyle where you control the hours and the location. building an independent presence means trading the comfort of a standard routine for the responsibility of your own momentum. i’m continually adjusting the blueprint to ensure that this digital space remains sustainable, human, and aligned with my values. the best thing you can do.. is to stay true to yourself while sharing who you are online. don't get caught up trying to impress or be someone else. it will over time become exhausting and unsustainable. being yourself is more than enough. 🤍 #personalbrand #intentionalliving #mindsetshift #quietpower #digitalstrategyshow more

She was 19, riding in a convoy through Iraq,... when one hidden explosion ended her life instantly forever. Carrie French was only 19 years old when she stepped into a war that demanded more than most people ever experience in a lifetime. She served with the 145th Support Battalion of the Idaho National Guard during Operation Iraqi Freedom, deployed to Kirkuk, Iraq, where every mission carried unseen danger. Her role was part of a support convoy—missions that often appeared routine but were never truly safe. In Iraq, even the simplest movement on the road required discipline, trust, and constant awareness. Threats were not always visible. Sometimes they were buried beneath the ground, waiting silently. On June 5, 2005, her convoy moved forward like so many before it. The day carried no warning, no sign of what was about to happen. Then, in an instant, an improvised explosive device detonated beneath or near the convoy. The explosion was sudden and overwhelming, leaving no time for reaction. Carrie French was killed in the line of duty. She was 19 years old—old enough to serve her country, old enough to wear the uniform, yet far too young to have her life end in a single moment of violence. After her death, she was posthumously promoted to corporal, a recognition of her service and commitment. Today, her name remains one among many in a war defined by unseen danger and sudden loss. Most people will never know her story, but for those who understand the cost of service, Carrie French represents a generation of young soldiers who stepped forward willingly—and never returned home.show more

Was this “racist”? New York Governor Kathy Hochul :... “Young black kids growing up in the Bronx who don’t even know what the word ‘computer’ is,” I don’t see it as being racist. I don’t think she meant to use the word computer, but in an effort to not hang on the word, she just threw out a word like computer. Saying that a lot of people of a certain race who are less well off in the Bronx don’t have a strong vocabulary isn’t racist in my opinion. It’s pointing out the socioeconomic dynamic of the area and how it impacts education based on race. Her intentions are to make sure these people get a better education. Stop concentrating on the wrong things and start trying to solve the problems.show more

This woman rented an Airbnb while in Portugal. She’s... from the states and is used to turning the key to the right to unlock the doors. However when she tried doing this here, it wouldn’t work because you use to turn the key to the left. Other people are criticizing her and blaming her for not knowing how to open a door. But as with many things when going abroad, we don’t think about something as simple as that. Should the owner have at least showed her how to do it knowing she’s not from around there?show more

Well… I scrolled Facebook today and counted 22 new... brush clearing companies in our local market alone. Every single one of them…except one, started no earlier than summer of 2025. A lot of them are copying our social formula almost exactly. - Same content style. - Same messaging. - Same angles. Not quite as effectively, but close enough. At the same time, I get emails, calls, and texts almost every day from people around the country starting forestry mulching businesses who want advice. Which is fascinating to watch… and exactly what we expected. Here’s the part people don’t talk about when they say “just post more content”: Visibility creates competition. Our lead costs are up roughly 10x because of market saturation. Our close rates are down because crowded markets always turn into a race to the bottom on price. That’s the tax of winning. Luckily, we planned for this. We’ve been expecting this since day one, and we’re rolling out Phase 2 of Brushworks this spring… a little earlier than anticipated, but no big deal. I will say… I am surprised by how fast people rush into a market when they see a good idea working. It moves faster than most people think. On to Phase 2. I won’t be sharing this one though. 😄show more

UPDATE: Helen Mirren Supports Tom Hardy Amid On-Set Behavior... Rumors While MobLand drama was unfolding, reports emerged that Tom Hardy was facing potential firing over unprofessional behavior on set — including keeping co-stars like Helen Mirren and Pierce Brosnan waiting for hours in his trailer. A resurfaced video from last November also showed Mirren being verbally attacked in East London, with a man calling her an “evil Zionist b*tch.” At the Taormina Film Festival, Mirren addressed both situations. She strongly supported her co-star: “Love you now and always” and said she would work with him again “absolutely… in a f*cking heartbeat.” She praised Hardy as “the most amazing actor” and a “very special person.” On the attack, she shared her views on Israel: “I believe in the existence of Israel” while expressing devastation over certain actions and questioning how past traumas could be repeated. What do you think of her resolute response and strong support for Hardy? (Video: AI)show more

My girlfriend of several years asked me to go... ring shopping with her this weekend. I replied, "respectfully babe, i love you, but no." Here's why ↓ When i asked about the motivation behind going, she revealed that it wasn't about finding out the size of her ring (which most girls apparently already know). It was actually to see how each stone size and shape looked on her particular finger. Also, the ring people she wanted to make appointments at were over an hour away. obviously way too far I then remembered that with @windsurf , I could quickly vibe code an API wrapper app that uses an image-to-image model that can take a picture of her hand as an input, and then virtually try-on different stones on her finger. And then as of yesterday, Windsurf enabled App Deploys that would allow me to deploy my api wrapper app to the internet in less than a minute so i could share it with my girlfriend I imagine I'm not the only person going through this situation so you can also visit the site at There's no auth and anyone can use it! I've loaded about $10 into my api account and each run costs me $0.01 so feel free to use it but please don't abuse it lolshow more

How did that #Corrie episode today turn into Lisa... hate? I'm so confused by what she's done this time. The reactions in both scenes are that of any other loving mother, It hurts them more than us when we fly the nest, I think more so if it's an only child. Lisa is a copper, she sees all the bad in the world, which will always be at the forefront of her mind. Shes well aware of what can happen in a big city like London. Her worries are valid, it doesn't make her any less happy for Betsy and her achievement but there was always going to be reservations. For Lisa she is a mother first and foremost who loves her kid more than life itself.show more

Dolly Parton kept politics at zero and the show... at 100, and that is why her death hits harder than most. She was laid to rest Friday in Nashville, next to her husband. Her niece confirmed it on Saturday. The service was simple and private. That fit her. Throughout her career she sold her music to the public while keeping the rest of her life offstage. That’s how Dolly kept her magic alive. Many entertainers spent the last twenty years lecturing people who paid for their performances. Dolly never did that. She understood the job: you don’t break the spell, you hold it until the last note. If her passing teaches anyone in this business anything, it should be that. Stay in character. Leave the pulpit at home. She did it for a lifetime, and almost nobody else can.show more

We put my 66 year old mum in a... jungle massage retreat in Paraguay for a few nights. 🇵🇾😂 This is the first time she has ever travelled overseas in her life. She was nervous about coming to South America. She thought it might be scary, dangerous and completely outside her comfort zone. Now she won’t stop sending me videos of how beautiful everything is when she’s supposed to be relaxing. 😂 Best part? She started planning her NEXT trip to Paraguay before this one is even finished. Don’t let fear, scary headlines or government travel warnings stop you from actually living your life. Memories, experiences, travel and adventure will stay with you far longer than another year spent doing the same 9 to 5 routine. Sometimes the life you’re afraid to try is the one you end up loving most. Cliche but so true... but you'll only regret the things you didn't do. 🇵🇾❤️show more

You can talk shit all you want about me... but don’t mess with the people I care Also don’t be a bitch and delete your stories, maybe try working on yourself because this is too pitiful to even roast. I’m a vtuber because I think it fits my whole voice actor thing and I’ve adored nailahs art even before getting to know her, and to rub salt on the wound most her sketches are done on 15 minutes or so. That’s just how talented she is and there’s no need to be jealous, just focus on improving the fundamentals and try to be less hateful, maybe then you’ll grow a community that loves you and your work Also… being “uglier”… I think I look alright and my vtuber even better, Now don’t be shy put your face on it for everybody to seeshow more

The playbook of an astroturfed grifter like Sarah Stock... is simple: her “core values” are entirely contingent on political expediency and whoever’s signing the checks. They’re malleable, quick to shift under social pressure, and ultimately meaningless. It’s not even ideological—ideology is an afterthought. Political beliefs, for her, are just tools of influence—not to enact change or serve a greater purpose, but merely to amplify the volume of recorded digital flattery. She was a fanatical, militant Zionist when Ezra Levant was bankrolling her. Then she came to the U.S. as a foreigner and face-planted in an attempted image overhaul, trying to rebrand herself as the dissident right’s ditzy egirl. Once that dream predictably imploded, she scrambled to reinvent herself yet again—hastily discarding whatever ideology she previously claimed the moment a quicker route up the social ladder appeared, along with a more efficient way to extract value from conservaslop coomers who are less interested in what she says than in simply gawking at her. Her viewership is a case study—not just in how sexual pathology intersects with ideology, but in how shameless grifters hustle their way into relevance.show more

🙏🙏 At thirty thousand feet, with only minutes left... to live, a 27-year-old woman chose love over terror. Her name was Honour Elizabeth Wainio, and just days earlier she had been savoring the happiest journey of her life-attending a wedding in Italy, wandering the streets of Paris, and lighting a candle for her grandmother in a quiet church. She told her mother that seeing Paris made her feel complete, as if she could face anything afterward. On the morning of September 11, 2001, she boarded a routine business flight to San Francisco for a work meeting, unaware that her life was about to become part of history. When the aircraft was hijacked, panic swept the cabin. Passengers quickly realized this was not a situation that would end safely on a runway. In the middle of that chaos, Honour reached for an onboard phone and called her stepmother. For more than four minutes, she spoke with astonishing calm. She did not dwell on fear or plead for rescue. Instead, she spoke about gratitude, about family, and about how deeply she loved the people who had shaped her life. Her final words were simple and unadorned: that the hijackers were breaking into the cockpit, and that she loved them. Those words, recorded in real time, became a lasting testament to her character. Through phone calls like hers, passengers learned the truth about the other attacks already unfolding that morning. Together, they understood what their flight had become and what was at stake. They talked, made a decision, and acted. Their attempt to regain control forced the plane down into a field in Pennsylvania, preventing it from reaching its intended target in Washington. Honour, a Towson University graduate, a devoted baseball fan, a daughter, sister, and friend, was among the forty who died that day. A scholarship now bears her name, honoring the compassion she showed when it mattered most. Her story endures as proof that even in humanity's darkest moments, courage and love can still rise.show more
