Cleopatra became Queen of Egypt at the age of 17, following the passing of her father, Ptolemy XII, and co-ruled initially with her younger brother Ptolemy XIII.
She maintained her rule for 22 years, navigating a period of intense political turbulence both within Egypt and across the Mediterranean. She was exceptionally educated and multilingual, speaking nine languages, which included Ancient Egyptian, Greek, and the tongues of the Parthians, Hebrews, Medes, Troglodytes, Syrians, Ethiopians, and Arabs.
This linguistic mastery was rare for a monarch and allowed her to communicate directly with foreign leaders and read texts from different cultures without translation, enhancing her influence, diplomatic skill, and access to knowledge.

@theRealKiyosaki Will we still have a crypto bull run this year?

I SHOULD NOT SAY THIS….because it’s not COOL….to say….I TOLD YOU SO…. Yet I did tell you so.
In my book RICH DAD’s PROPHECY
I warned the biggest stock market crash in history was going to wipe out the financial security of millions of investors….especially my generation…. THE BABY BOOMers.
That stock market crash arrived today. We are definitely in a RECESSION and more than likely…a DEPRESSION.
Why was I warning BOOMERS?
Because BOOMERS are out of time….or a pilots say “They are running out of run way.” They do not have time to “Invest for the long term in stocks, bonds, mutual funds, or ETFs.”
What can a person do?
As I have been suggesting for years,
I suggest looking at non-WALL STREET assets.
For many years I have suggested saving real gold, real silver, and today BITCOIN.
WHY: Because after this paper market crash wipes out millions of fake paper assets….odds are the Fed and Treaury will turn the printing presses on FULL SPEED….printing trillions in Fake money which becomes even more FAKE…. And real money…. Gold, Silver, and Bitcoin go up in value.
Remember, gold, silver, and Bitcoin ARE NOT going up in price….what is happening is the dollar is going down in value…. causing everything of value, such as food, housing and energy….to become more expensive…a.k.a. INFLATION….. which why I have said for years….the government and our banks….steal our wealth….via our money.
If you still have “some runway left,”
You may want to save real money which are gold, silver, and Bitcoin.
Take care. There are going to be rough storms ahead.

Good lord people have no idea what tariffs are.
Tariffs are taxes a country puts on its own people and corporations for importing goods. It has nothing to do with other countries directly. Indirectly it does because if your corporations are importing a lot of things from another country, that country will lose that business.
Tariffs are purely used to incentivise domestic growth and minimize dependency on other countries.
If you didnt know this, or were explained any other definition you were gaslit.
From @grok: You're spot on about tariffs being taxes imposed by a country on its own importers—typically businesses or corporations—for bringing in goods from abroad. The mechanics are straightforward: a government slaps a fee on imported stuff, which raises the cost of those goods domestically. That can nudge companies to either source locally or eat the extra cost, which might get passed on to consumers. The ripple effect is where other countries feel it; if their exports tank because of the tariff, they lose out on trade.
The intent behind tariffs often ties to boosting homegrown industries or cutting reliance on foreign supply chains, like you said. It’s a lever for economic self-reliance, though it’s not without trade-offs—higher prices, potential retaliation, or supply hiccups. History’s littered with examples: the U.S. Smoot-Hawley Tariff Act of 1930 jacked up duties to protect American farmers, but it backfired, tanking global trade and worsening the Depression. On the flip side, targeted tariffs can prop up fledgling industries—think South Korea’s steel sector in the '70s.
People do get twisted up about this, though. Some think tariffs are a direct tax on foreign countries, like a fine, but nah—it’s the importing country’s own system footing the bill. The confusion’s not new; it’s just economics being its usual messy self. Anything else you want to unpack on this?

@Keir_Starmer We need a new UK party. Labour and Tories are the same party with the same policies.

A school in Southampton has been speaking to local imams and have agreed to give the children a day off school to celebrate Eid.
This is for Muslim children only.
In a letter released by the school it states….
“As part of religious observance, Muslim students only are entitled to one day off school to celebrate this religious festival with their families and communities.”
Does this mean the Easter Holidays will only apply to Christian children going forward?

We inherited a fundamentally broken welfare system from the previous government.
It does not work for the people it is supposed to support, businesses who need workers or taxpayers who foot the bill.
This government will always protect the most severely disabled people to live with dignity. But we’re not prepared to stand back and do nothing while millions of people — especially young people — who have potential to work and live independent lives, instead become trapped out of work and abandoned by the system. It would be morally bankrupt to let their life chances waste away.
When I talk about opportunity for all, I mean it.
That’s why we are bringing forward the biggest changes to the welfare system in a generation and improving support for those who need it.
Ensuring those who can work do work is not only right, but it will also improve living standards and drive growth, the number one priority in our Plan for Change.

Keir Starmer to drive through welfare cuts for UK’s severely disabled people, 600,000 claimants could lose out on an average of £675 a month.
Awful, inhumane.
No cuts to corporate welfare, won't tax the rich.
People sacrificed to gods of neoliberalism.
