Yo, am I crazy, or is that a fake Melania standing next to him? 😆

Ireland is the 2nd most peaceful country in the world, according to the Institute for Economics and Peace. Only Iceland is rated as a more peaceful nation in their 2024 Global Peace Index. 🇮🇪😇 visionofhumanity.org/maps/#/

Kamala Harris will win comfortably, because: • Biden’s admin has been solid • Trump’s lost ground since 2016 • The young Black male votes which Trump needs didn’t turn out in 16, 18, 20, or 22 • Young women like Kamala + vote ✴️Ignore polls—they’re herding, after past misses

I ❤️ (car-free) #Paris! Starting Nov. 4, 2024, the 5.5 km2 heart of Paris will be closed to through traffic. (Buses, taxis, ambulances, residents' cars will still have access.) Opponents claim it will make life hell. Here's what hell looks like, according to them:

In Iran, a student harassed by her university’s morality police over her “improper” hijab didn’t back down. She turned her body into a protest, stripping to her underwear and marching through campus—defying a regime that constantly controls women’s bodies. Her act is a powerful reminder of Iranian women’s fight for freedom. Yes we use our bodies like weapons to fight back a regime that kills women for showing their hair. This happened at Tehran’s Science and Research University She has since been arrested by the authorities. Be her voice. #WomanLifeFreedom

26 years ago, I was made redundant and given a few grand. I decided that if I was careful, I could live off the money for 6 months trying to become a comedian before I had to get another job. I was 37. Worth a punt.

Someone - and I wish I could remember who - once said that it’s much easier to trick a person than to persuade them that they’ve been tricked.

Why so many of you Trump people mad I early voted? 🤣 Isn’t voting part of the democratic process? Are you all worried cause 300,000 people came out and voted early on the first day shattering the previous record by over 150%? Why y’all so mad? Lol

At this rate, if Trump is sworn in, JD Vance will invoke the 25th Amendment in the car on the way back to the White House.
