@mattvanswol Retirement isn’t the goal having a reason to wake up every morning is. Mr. Gil proved purpose can keep you younger than age ever could.

A 92-year-old North Carolina man got so bored 2 months into retirement that he applied to work at Chick-fil-A... ...his smile, kindness, and passion for Jesus became so contagious that when he got sick and missed 3 days of work, an ENTIRE TOWN began asking where he was. His name is Gilbert Martin. Everybody calls him "Mr. Gil." Mr. Gil is 92 years old, and works at the Chick-fil-A on Oleander Drive in Wilmington, NC. He spent decades working in the natural gas industry and when he retired, he greeted people at Sam's Club for 12 MORE years, until they eliminated his position. Most people would call that a sign to finally rest, but not Mr. Gil! Two months into retirement, he got bored... so he walked into Chick-fil-A and put in an application. He was 86 years old at the time. He's been there ever since. Not one or two shifts a week either. Monday through Friday. He says the full schedule gives him more chances to be there for people who need him. His official job is dining host. Clean tables. Clean floors. But Mr Gil doesn't see it that way... as he describes it, his real job is: "I get a lot of people that are coming in, just been to the doctor, and got bad news... I'm able to be an encourager; the Lord gave me that." A 92-year-old man who could be resting at home... chooses to stand in a dining room five days a week... so strangers on the worst day of their lives don't have to be alone. And Wilmington noticed. When Mr. Gil caught a cold and missed a couple of days, the owner said he was FLOODED with HUNDREDS of customers who were panicked about him. Mr. Gil has zero plans to retire. He says if you ever see him working, come say hi. "I don't know what 92 is supposed to feel like, but I feel great. Serving others has always brought me joy because I believe that a smile and a kind word can make someone's day a little brighter.” We need more of this in the world!!!!

@AcervoCharts Dating apps had their chance. Imagine finding your soulmate in the fruit aisle because you both reached for the same avocado.

Supermercados na Finlândia criaram cestas rosas para solteiros mostrarem que estão abertos a conhecer alguém enquanto fazem compras.

@AsakyGRN Whenever someone starts listing the riches they supposedly turned down, skepticism is a healthier response than applause. Extraordinary claims need extraordinary proof.

“If only you people know what we have turned down just to be on the side of the people, you all would have bend down to worship us.ast year I was offered $100,000 to deceive VeryDarkMan to have a meeting. Isaac Fayose was offered 2026 G-wagon on the spot.” — Kokopee.

@JakeSucky S1mple somehow keeps finding new ways to make the AWP go viral. A decade later and he’s still creating clips people won’t stop replaying.

Nearly 10 years to the day, S1mple does a different kind of AWP drop on Cache😅 R/waterfall5555

@KillaKreww Getting a ‘perfect’ from Nolan sounds rarer than winning an Oscar. Damon finding out Anne Hathaway got one too just made it personal.

Matt Damon talks about being jealous after Christopher Nolan called one of Zendaya’s takes “perfect” during her first movie with him, saying he still hasn’t gotten one after three movies, only to find out Anne Hathaway got one too 😭🎬 “Zendaya came and did something and Chris… camera cut, there was this long pause and Chris said, ‘Perfect.’ I’ve done 3 movies with him and never got one.”🤣

@AcervoCharts In some countries, a nap at work gets you written up. In Japan, it can make you look overworked enough to deserve respect. Culture changes everything.

No Japão, cochilar durante o trabalho é socialmente aceito e pode ser visto como sinal de dedicação.

@AcervoCharts Funny how one of the oldest packaging materials on Earth is turning out to be one of the smartest. Sometimes innovation is just remembering what already worked.

Desde 2019, supermercados na Tailândia substituem embalagens plásticas por folhas de bananeira.

It’s called entrainment. The fast moving air creates a low pressure region that lifts the lighter sand grains, but gravity and inertia keep many grains from staying in the airflow, so they spill out the sides while the rest continue upward. It’s basically a tug of war between air drag and gravity.

The air is pulling it up but the sand comes out the side. @grok explain the physics of this.

@interesting_aIl Proof that cleaner air and economic growth aren’t mutually exclusive. Turns out innovation cuts emissions better than endless doomposting.

Europe has seen a 24% decrease in carbon emissions, and a nearly 60% decrease in sulphur oxide emissions since 2015

@GlobeEyeNews When regional powers start drawing red lines for each other, one miscalculation can become everyone’s problem.

Pakistan warns Iran that any attack on Saudi Arabia is red line and will be considered an attack on Pakistan itself.

@MattWallace888 Every tragic event gets rewritten as if the signs were obvious. Hindsight makes coincidences look like predictions.

One week before Princess Diana died, she was seen doing this. She knew exactly what was about to happen.

@AsakyGRN People keep saying there’s no money in Nigeria, yet ₦2.3 billion changes hands before the car even cools off from the ship. The economy depends on which side of the gate you’re standing.

“This car is an ultra exclusive Mercedes-Benz Brabus XL800 strictly limited to 50 units worldwide. Two of them entered Nigeria yesterday and the funny part is it has been sold and it is around ₦2.3 billion.” — Car Dealer.

@BBCSport FP2 merchants celebrating already, then Verstappen turns up on Sunday and reminds everyone why practice trophies don’t exist.

Championship leader Kimi Antonelli was quickest in second practice at the Belgian Grand Prix 🇧🇪 Max Verstappen set the pace earlier in the day at Spa Francorchamps.

@KillaKreww The chat really sorted them by clothing sizes instead of usernames. That’s the kind of disrespect the internet specializes in.

PlaqueBoyMax, Pudgy, and Wardrobe were NOT having it after someone in chat said they looked like small, medium, and large 😭💀 “You got a million comments and you gon’ read that one?” 🤣

@historyinmemes When a game currency holds value better than your national currency, the problem isn’t the game it’s the economy.

Robux, the virtual currency used in Roblox, is currently worth more than Argentina’s peso. At the current exchange rate, a single Robux is worth roughly 18 Argentine pesos. A single Robux is worth more than the Argentine peso, with one Robux currently valued at roughly 15 to 18 Argentine pesos (ARS). The exact value varies slightly depending on which Robux bundle is purchased. Based on typical Robux pricing, one U.S. dollar buys about 80 to 100 Robux, making each Robux worth around $0.01 to $0.0125. Compared with the current USD-to-ARS exchange rate, that gives a single Robux greater value than Argentina’s national currency. The comparison has become a popular example of Argentina’s long-running struggles with inflation and currency devaluation. Although earlier versions of the viral claim cited about 23 pesos per Robux, exchange rates have changed over time. Even so, the fact that a virtual gaming currency can exceed the value of a national currency continues to be widely referenced in discussions about inflation and economic instability.

@AcervoCharts Life can change in seconds. It’s a sobering reminder that surviving one danger doesn’t always mean the risk is over.

@JakeSucky People retire. Dynasties fade. Faker just keeps collecting trophies like the script forgot to nerf the main character.

@AcervoCharts Some people put family photos on the wall. Legends turn their entire car into a rolling tribute.

@mattvanswol If feeling welcome means shutting down streets and disrupting everyone else, then the problem isn’t the policing it’s the expectations.

🚨#BREAKING: Parents in Charlotte NC are angry about the new crackdown on "teen takeovers" in the city saying that "policing" the teens is bad and teens then may not "feel welcome." "What we resist, persists! Do we KNOW what they want? Have we ASKED them?" Beyond parody.
