This movie has one of the most beautiful cinematographies of all time. 🎬 Pride & Prejudice (2005) is a story of quiet tension and slow-burning romance, where pride keeps hearts guarded and prejudice keeps emotions hidden.

An accident left Owen Recio with a 99.9% chance he'd never walk again. Against all odds, he rose from his wheelchair and defiantly walked across the stage to claim his diploma.. Way to go Owen !!!!!

Portugal's right-wing leader André Ventura said it clearly: "If you want to wear a burqa? It's really simple! Pack your stuff, catch a flight, and go. Go to Pakistan, go to Saudi Arabia, go to Morocco... Go wherever the hell you want. Just not here!"

"Books are amazing because a stranger from 200 years ago can still emotionally ruin your day."

A guy I know lost both parents to a drunk driver. He got custody of his 3 siblings and had to drop out of uni to work and take care of them. He used to joke a lot, always outside, always laughing. After it happened, he barely talked. Just always looked tired. If this law had been in place it would have eased his burden a bit.

This comment got me laughing

Antigone may be the origin of independent thought in Western literature. Here is a young woman who stands against the king, against the state, against the consensus of everyone around her, because she believes a higher law demands it. She buries her brother knowing it will cost her life. When I teach Sophocles to students, I don't start with literary analysis. I start with a question: "Have you ever known something was right even though everyone around you disagreed?" Every student has a story. The shy kid who wouldn't go along with bullying. The teenager who questioned a rule that seemed unjust. They know what it feels like to stand alone with their own conviction. Then we read Antigone, and suddenly a 2,500-year-old play becomes personal. What Sophocles teaches, and what no amount of lecturing about "critical thinking" can replicate, is the lived experience of watching someone reason through an impossible moral situation and choose based on principle. Students don't learn independent thought from being told to think independently. They learn it from inhabiting the minds of those who actually did. This is why I believe great literature is not a nice supplement to education. It's foundational. These texts are where young people encounter the full weight of what it means to think for yourself and accept the consequences.

All roads lead you back to yourself; the standards you ignored. the boundaries you softened. the intuition you doubted. Life will keep repeating lessons until you listen.

An uncomfortable truth: “Any crime that is punishable by a fine is basically legal for those who can afford it.”

This is how I treat them people who support politicians destroying our lives

Daily reminder that you need to be stacking *physical* books. Why? -they can’t be changed -you can pass them on to your children -they’re a break from a screen -you don’t lose entertainment when your battery goes out -they make great decorations -they smell amazing

There is no reason why anybody should live like this. No reason whatsoever! Imagine he's been doing this since 2004. 22 yrs!! If luck didn't smile on him in the person of this good samaritan, this is probably what he'll continue to do till his legs are too weak to run anymore. What sort of a hopeless life is this that so many honest and hardworking Nigerians are subjected to live?! No support, no help. All he needed was 1.5milion to start up a business, yet for over 2 decades, he couldn't raise it, he couldn't get support from the country of his birth. And this is the fate of so many Nigerians. He is lucky to have been taken off the streets. What about the millions of others who remain. Who will help them?? 🥺🥺

Nigerian soldiers in Sambisa forest are salivating as their US Army brothers feast like kings, while they languish without proper food or water . As I post this video, the Nigerian Army will start hunting me down, accusing me of 'agitating the military.' Just like they did to Justice Crack, the activist who went viral for exposing the poor feeding of troops.. @HQNigerianArmy shame on you.. I pour spit for una face 🤮🤮🤮

@triplexdshott When the scripture says God controls everything people think it's a joke He even decides how dices 🎲 lands ,We may throw the dice, but the LORD determines how they fall.

@triplexdshott We always great advisors from the side. Nothing truly beats the uneasy that lies with the head that wears the crown

@triplexdshott You can absolutely open your eyes and ears and listen to other people’s experiences without experiencing the thing personally. The reason people experience surprise is because of their just world fallacy, they’re not empathetic, and they think they’re exceptional.

until it happens to you, you will think you are very careful, very responsible, very smart, very religious, very mature, very private, very etc.
