For this creator payout cycle, we’re experimenting with new tools to identify original authors of content and allocating a portion of revenue to them. Over the last few months, we've seen incredible work from original creators on X. Nick Shirley uncovered billions of dollars of fraud in hospice care. Charles Curran parodied global events with studio-quality videos. Will Manidis earned acclaim for his insightful articles on technology and AI. Reposts & commentary will always be a core pillar of X, but our Revenue Sharing program should incentivize original, high-quality content that brings new value to the Timeline. This means rewarding the effort it takes to produce something, not just the poster who helped it travel furthest. This is how we build a richer Timeline and how X continues to be the most valuable platform in the world. The Revenue Sharing program will continue to evolve to encourage creators to post their best content to X.

I want to talk about the scale of what’s coming for the UK over the next three months. Because I don’t think many people have joined the dots yet. The Strait of Hormuz has been effectively closed for over five weeks. Before this war, 135 ships passed through it every day. Now it’s 5 to 7. Over 600 vessels are still stranded. Iran has mined the strait, is charging tolls, and controlling who passes. The CEO of Abu Dhabi’s national oil company said it this week: “The Strait of Hormuz is not open. Access is being restricted, conditioned and controlled. That is coercion.” Two thirds of Gulf crude has no alternative route. 14 million barrels a day behind a 21-mile chokepoint. Energy bills are forecast to jump 20% in July. From £1,641 to nearly £2,000. The second major energy shock in four years. Petrol up over 15%. Diesel up nearly 30%. Wholesale gas rose 75% in under four weeks. Food inflation could hit 8% by June and 9% by December. Academics advising DEFRA say it could reach 12%. UK food prices are already 38% higher than before Covid. We’re only 62% self-sufficient in food. We import 60% of our nitrogen fertiliser. Red diesel for farming has surged 60%. Average arable farm income has fallen to £17,000, the lowest in over 20 years. Yesterday, China announced it’s halting all sulphuric acid exports from May. Sulphuric acid is essential for phosphate fertilisers, copper mining, oil refining, and battery manufacturing. A third of the world’s sulphur was already blocked by the Hormuz closure. Now the world’s largest exporter has pulled the other lever at the same time. The fertiliser crisis just got significantly worse, heading straight into planting season. Before the war, markets expected rate cuts. Now they’ve priced in two rate rises. Over 1,500 mortgage products have been pulled. Two year fixes have jumped from 4.8% to 5.5%. Nearly £1,000 a year extra on a £200k mortgage. Gone in weeks. Flights are next. A quarter of UK jet fuel comes from Kuwait, behind the strait. In early April, major carriers said they had five to six weeks of reserves. That clock is running. Ryanair’s CEO has warned 5-10% of summer flights could be cancelled. Iran’s strike on Qatar’s Ras Laffan LNG complex, which handles 30% of the world’s helium, is estimated to take 3 to 5 years to repair. Helium is critical for semiconductors and MRI machines. That’s not a disruption. That’s structural damage. Chemical and steel manufacturers are imposing surcharges of up to 30%. Analysts are warning of permanent deindustrialisation. European gas storage was at just 30% after a harsh winter. If the strait stays restricted through summer, Europe can’t refill for next winter. In Ireland, fuel protests shut down Dublin for four days. The army was deployed. Over 100 fuel stations ran dry, with warnings of 500 by end of the week. Downing Street has held talks on the potential for mass protests here. The OECD has downgraded the UK more than any other G7 nation. Growth slashed from 1.2% to 0.7%. Inflation forecast nearly doubled to 4%, with some saying it could breach 5%. Starmer and Trump spoke this week about military options to reopen the strait. The UK is leading a 30+ nation coalition. But the ceasefire is already fracturing. Iran re-closed the strait over Israeli strikes on Lebanon. Reeves is boxed in by fiscal rules. Higher gilt yields are eating her headroom. And I haven’t heard a credible plan from anyone in Westminster. Energy. Food. Fertiliser. Aviation fuel. Mortgages. Industrial chemicals. Semiconductors. Shipping. Government borrowing. Political stability. All under stress. All compounding. This country imports 44% of its energy. Has almost no gas storage. Imports most of its food and fertiliser. Gets a quarter of its jet fuel from behind a mined strait. Every structural weakness built up over 20 years is being stress tested at once. The next three months aren’t going to be uncomfortable. They’re going to be defining

my friend in uk called me to share with me a good news… you know that kind of call where the voice is shaking but smiling at the same time? yeah… that kind. she moved there quietly, no noise, just her and her small suitcase full of hope and “let me just try.” caregiver job, long shifts, cold mornings, learning accents that didn’t always make sense. she used to tell me how lonely it felt sometimes… how even laughter sounded different there. then she met him. an elderly white man she was assigned to care for. stubborn at first, very “i’ve lived my life already, don’t fuss over me” type. but my friend… you know her. soft heart, steady patience, that quiet kindness that doesn’t beg to be noticed. she didn’t just care for him… she saw him. she listened to his old stories like they were fresh news. laughed at jokes that probably weren’t even funny. months turned into years. she became more than a caregiver… she became family in a place where she had none. then life did what life does… he passed away. today’s call? different tears. he left a will… and in it, he left her his house. she kept saying “i didn’t do anything special”… but sometimes, being genuinely kind is the loudest thing you can do. she went there looking for survival and found grace. life quietly rewards a good heart when no one is watching. and today, hope sounded exactly like her voice on the phone.

Kulübümüzün hukuk departmanı, Atletico Madrid ile oynanan Şampiyonlar Ligi çeyrek final ilk maçında yaşanan olaylardan ötürü UEFA'ya resmi bir şikayette bulunmuştur. Karşılaşmanın hakemi mevcut kurallara aykırı bir biçimde maçın gidişatını ve sonucunu doğrudan etkilemiştir. Şikayetin odağında maçın 54. dakikasında, oyun yeniden başladıktan sonra, rakip oyuncu ceza sahası içinde topa elle müdahale etmesine rağmen penaltı verilmemesi bulunmaktadır. ​​Bu karar, VAR'ın da müdahale etmemesiyle birlikte, önemli bir hataya dönüşmüştür. Sonuç olarak, Barcelona hakem hakkında soruşturma, hakemin VAR odasıyla iletişimlerine erişim ve gerektiği takdirde hatanın resmi olarak kabul edilmesi ve uygun önlemlerin alınmasını talep etmektedir. Ayrıca son yıllarda ​​UEFA Şampiyonlar Ligi'nde anlamakta güçlük çektiğimiz hakem kararları takımımıza ciddi zararlar vermekte ve diğer kulüplerle eşit şartlarda rekabet etmeyi engellemektedir.

I just finished seeing this movie by Egbon Kunle Afolayan’s Dad- It’s released over 4 decades ago & I kid you not, it’ll beat many movies being churn out these days. 7 days & only 100k views. As how now? This is a film that should have gulped à million +. Egbon Kunle, you need to dance oooo. lol.
