BY AGE 70, YOU'LL REALIZE THESE 18 THINGS WERE WHAT TRULY MATTERED // Thread //

A master mass here from Micheal Martin on how to speak fluently and diplomatically - while also standing up for values, peace and European allies -

Martin couldn't let St. Patrick's day ☘️☘️ go by without a little song...

Happy St. Patrick's Day, New York.

David Bowie performs "Heroes" during his 2002 tour. This is without a doubt one of his best performances. Just look at him, at his best... laughing and joking with the audience and the band... REALLY enjoying himself! What a wonderful gift he was to all of us. Thank you David.

This guy is a genius. And while usually very funny, this one makes some very serious points. It is a must-watch.

Trump called American Olympian Hunter Hess a “real loser” for criticizing what’s happening in our country under Trump. Mr. President, this is not a monarchy. This is the United States and no one is required to bow down to you. Hess is not a "loser." He's a proud American.

Yesterday, I told you guys about 50…. Now at 60, life is no longer asking what you want to become, it is showing you what you have already become. The noise has reduced. The excuses have expired. What remains is the truth of your habits, your relationships, and the systems you built when you still had strength and time on your side. At 60, health is the real wealth, not as a quote but as a lived reality. Strength is measured in mobility, clarity, and independence. Regular checkups, movement, and routine are no longer optional. This is the age where a simple illness can change everything, and discipline quietly determines how free or restricted your life will be. At 60, money is about continuity, not growth. The question is no longer “how much can I make” but “how long can what I have sustain me.” Income should be predictable, expenses controlled, and dependents clearly defined. At this stage, confusion around finances is dangerous. Simplicity is power. At 60, relationships narrow to what is essential. Children are adults. Friends are fewer. Conversations are deeper. You no longer chase relevance; you command respect by presence alone. Peace becomes more valuable than being right, and solitude stops feeling like loneliness. At 60, legacy becomes visible. People are already living the lessons you taught, or suffering the ones you neglected to pass on. This is the season of mentorship, storytelling, and quiet influence. Your greatest value now is not speed, but perspective. At 60, life becomes about dignity. How you live. How you age. How you are treated. And how prepared you are for the day you can no longer push as hard. If you planned well, this decade is calm, reflective, and honorable. If you did not, it can feel rushed and uncertain. Time no longer shouts. It whispers. And it expects wisdom in return.

Christmas Day internet winner! 🇬🇧 🇩🇪 🇫🇷 🇺🇦

This is a human post, not a political post - the staff in my local DayBreak are almost all Indian, and the absolute shite they have to listen to and tolerate is unbelievable, yet they remain unfailing friendly, courteous and polite. Heroes of modern Ireland.

She might not be here to say it. But let’s not let death stop Janey Godley from giving the middle finger to Donald Trump. Let’s do it for dear friend Janey.

Wow! Happening NOW in Belgium: An absolutely MASSIVE wave of protesters floods the streets of Brussels for Palestine, denouncing Israel’s genocide in Gaza. Will mainstream Western media even show you this? 🔥🇵🇸

Around 400 Palestinians, including dozens of children, have been killed while trying to get humanitarian assistance. I don’t recall these incidents (including this weekend) leading many papers or news bulletins. Are we really saying a few chants from a couple of musicians is more newsworthy or important? We have lost our bearings …
