@SelwynGreen2 @DrJaninaRamirez Absolutely not. When women have Been leaders they have done good and bad but, on balance men have had more power and have used it in more destructive ways. Maybe female leaders would have done the same. Doesn't take away from what men have chosen to do.

@richaldis @DrJaninaRamirez That's what you tell yourselves and it fuels your rage. Thing is, it isn't true. Women want to reserve all the 'nice' things for themselves while heaping blame on men for all the 'bad'. No one is buying this narrative anymore. It is bulldust.

I’m here questioning why I love studying the past & the way I’ve leaned into it. As I watch mad men strive for legacy, deceive everyone, aim for longevity, I realise so much of what we idolise is the result of narcissistic maniacal males. The past is beautiful. We need open eyes.

@SelwynGreen2 @DrJaninaRamirez But too much that men have done has been destructive and divisive and too little of what women have done gas been recognised at all.

@DrJaninaRamirez You know why that is? Because "narcissistic maniacal males" get shit done!

@brexitblog_info Why does the BBC always think it appropriate to invite right-leaning agitator Nigel Farage on Question Time in such disproportion to other politicians? Why is he allowed on to spout his ritual fealty to Trump? It’s not compulsory viewing. If you don’t like it just turn it off.🤷🏻‍♂️

@Inspirenaire Cursive (what we call joined up writing in the UK) is taught everywhere in Europe

As we are out here doing our Genealogy and looking at old census records and history, it's mostly written in cursive. There are at least 3 different decades of youth who don't know how to write or read cursive. What the schools won't teach, you better have your children learn it from somewhere else. They will lose history if they don't. #Inspirenaire

@Meowllian Holy rood means Holy Cross not holly wood

Scotland & Wales — Druids & Egypt ? “I am a Serpent, I am a Druid !” Besides the surname of Serpents, the Celto Britannic Druids were called the Builders, the Architects; for the immense grandeur of their temples and monuments. Many historians argue that the Druids of the British Isles came originally from Egypt. Druidism of the British Isles was simply a derivative from the Egyptian Satanic witchcraft/magic of Ancient Egypt. The national symbol of Scotland is the Dragon (the snake), and for years the chief of Scotland was called the Dragon. The same applies to Wales, represented by a Red Dragon. The Gaelic & Welsh languages are unique to the rest of the British Isles. Just like Queen Elizabeth is seen being initiated into the Druid Order, Winston Churchill was also a Druid. There is an immense pyramid on the Royal grounds of Balmoral in Scotland. Holyrood - Hollywood The name "Hollywood" derives from the term “holly rood” A sacred symbol to ancient druids, witches, and wizards who used its branches to craft thier "magic" wands for casting spells. A good example would be Merlin from the King Arthur saga whose wand is made of "holly wood". Th Holyrood Palace is the official residence of the British monarch in Scotland, located opposite to Edinburgh Castle. Nemo me impune lacessit No one provokes me with impunity - national motto of Scotland also displayed on the Royal crests of Balmoral & Holyroodhouse. Since 1707 the motto has appeared on the Royal coat of arms of the United Kingdom used in Scotland as well as several British Army Regiments such as the Royal Scots Dragoons. The Ancient Order of Druids was founded in 1781 by Henry Hurle. The Welsh Druid revival owes much to the writings of a stonemason called Edward Williams, also known as lolo Morgawg). The All-Seeing Eye are in ancient Chaldea, in ancient Greece, and in ancient Egypt. The MI-seeing eye represents Osiris. Osiris had debauched revelries (saturnalias) celebrated in his honor. The all-seeing-eye represents the trinity of Osiris, Isis and Horus of Egypt. The Egyptian Karnak is twin-brother to the Carnac of Bretagne, the latter Carnac meaning the serpent's mount. The Dracontia once covered the surface of the globe; these Temples were sacred to the Dragon, only because it was the symbol of the sun, symbol of the highest god—the Phoenician Elon or Elion, whom Abraham recognized as El Elion. (Could Elon Musk be a Druid?) The Egyptian word Makhaut (clan or family) became the Irish Maccu and the Maceu of the Donalds (clan of Donalds) now reflected in the name MacDonald. The sacred keepers of the Clan-Stone in Arran, were also known by the family name of Clan-Chattons. Another word for clan is Mack and the Clan-Chattons were also known as Mack-Intosh. Ptah-rekh the name of the Egyptian god Ptah was passed down to us by the Druids adopting the name Patrick, which sounded similar. St. Patrick's Day then is a Christianized form of a druid holiday which originally had its origins in Egypt. Source: Gerald Massey's A Book of the Beginning

@Meowllian Modern historians don't argue druids came from Egypt. That's a 19th century Romantic viewpoint not born out by archaeology or historical sources.

@slant555 @unstable_buildr @KM1111777444 @MrPitbull07 Then Americans would understand the actual costs

@unstable_buildr @KM1111777444 @MrPitbull07 It’s a can’t win situation, if restaurants paid fair wages to their servers/bartenders, then menu prices will go up… there will be complaints in either scenario

We went to a dinner as a group and had a $500 bill. We tipped $40. We were happy we can be able to give our server something, but her reaction was the opposite. She told us she assumed we're going to give her at least $120. When we asked for the manager, she said she was just joking, but she wasn't smiling at all. Idk, but is $40 tip enough for $500 bill? I just feel like expecting $120 is not realistic. ~Lea Robertson

@chatswithem @JuliaHB1 Not true

SWITZERLAND IS THE FIRST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD TO BAN MAMMOGRAPHY Screening services are also suspended in parts of Canada, Italy, Scotland, and Australia 👍 — 50-60% of "positive" results are incorrect! So being diagnosed with "breast cancer" in 50-60% of cases proves it was not even there at all. — upon examination, the breast is compressed with a large weight of 10 кРа (1019 kg/m2) & then a healthy, very sensitive mammary tissue is bombarded with radioactive radiation! — stimulates tumor growth & spread of metastases! — study done at 690,000 records show that a large number of breast cancer in completely healthy women after mammography!!! ♥️Please read & share this document far & wide so that we can educate others! What is the radiation dose received in mammography screening? A typical mammographic screening examination involving 2 views of each breast (total 4 mammograms) delivers a dose of between 3 and 5 mGy to the glandular tissue. Dose expresses the X-ray energy absorbed in a specific tissue. Radiation Protection of Patients (RPOP) | IAEA

This is utter madness. Mammograms are not enjoyable, it's true. But they save lives. I have 4 friends who found breast cancer because of their breast screening. All caught early enough to be treated. Ladies, you are certifiably INSANE not to go for breast screenings. Book today!

@UncleNestor22 @AurorianMagic @tpvsean It means rural. Early Christians used it to describe people who were not soldiers of christ, polytheistic peasants in short.

@AurorianMagic @tpvsean Pagan means worshipper of demons

🚨 Leaked Epstein Files: King Charles 'Sacrificed' Minors in Occult Rituals Damning evidence has emerged linking King Charles to Jeffrey Epstein, revealing the monarch was personally invited to Epstein's Caribbean island to participate in gruesome occult rituals involving children.

@ZiaYusufUK International students, retirees returning from Europe after Brexit, returning British national who were working abroad, etc without a breakdown you're being disingenuous

🚨A staggering 750,000 people registered with a GP last year whose last address was outside the UK. And this figure does not include the foreign nationals who won’t even have registered with a GP and just walk into A&E. The population explosion is depriving Brits of access to their health service. Labour’s response is to offshore the NHS to Malaysia. Britain is broken. Britain needs Reform. Credit: @migrationCtrl

@JesterJum Yeah, but I'd rather not live in a world where we're wiping out pollinators and building up cancer causing chemicals in the environment.

Average lifespan 10,000 years ago: 30-35 Average lifespan in 1400: 30-35 Average lifespan in 1900: 30-35 Average lifespan in 2025: 74-75 Eating "organic" does not drastically increase your lifespan. In all of human history, organic food was the ONLY option until very recently. Wanna know what does make a drastic impact? Having access to effective medicine (antibiotics, etc...) Am I saying you shouldn't eat healthy? Absolutely not! I eat healthy because I feel better and I like looking good naked 🤷 I am just tired of the community who thinks "organic" food will cure everything and let you live to 120 years old. This is gonna piss a lot of people off but I don't really care. The numbers don't lie.

@Craig14201271 @JoePompliano But these business decisions are exactly what's grown Europen football teams in Asia which is now bigger than the local audience in tv revenue terms

I understand what you’re saying but those people he is picking up in other countries are not the ticket holders and jersey buyers and so on. I’m sure they could learn to enjoy or watch but it’s alienating a huge portion of your already loyal to a fault fan base. At best it feels like a $ for $ trade and I don’t think it is

Many people believe the NFL is making a political statement by picking Bad Bunny to perform at the Super Bowl, but I really think it's as simple as... 1. He's the world's most popular artist 2. Having him perform advances the NFL’s long-stated goal of international expansion 3. Picking someone with little overlap with the average NFL fan will help the league set a new viewership record — Americans will watch no matter what, and Bad Bunny pulls in new viewers who might not have tuned in otherwise. Music aside, it makes a lot of business sense.

@EF5KING @WisestMe2 @resteinsolente Tip 5 mist watched are football, cricket, basketball, hockey and tennis. In the UK nfl is in the same range as kabadi, very niche.

@richaldis @WisestMe2 @resteinsolente It is top 5 lol just cause you don’t watch it doesn’t mean no one does. Ik so many people here that watch nfl regularly

Does anyone outside the US can name a NFL player ?

@WisestMe2 @resteinsolente It's not even in the top 5. Most of its viewership is in the USA

@resteinsolente Barely yet it’s one of the games that have massive attendance in the world along side baseball and football

@estreyah_ I have some if those things and with modern techniques and great nurses it's rarely uncomfortable let alone traumatic.

Whilst we’re on the topic the way cervical screenings are done need to be changed asap , there’s no reason women with issues like sexual trauma, vaginismus etc should have to go through something painful for it

@emssilly I've been tested regularly since 1980 and it's far less traumatic or painful with modern techniques and equipment. Well trained nurses make a world of difference.

There’s plenty of reasons why this is an extremely valid fear. Dismissing because it’s “painless” or “only uncomfortable” are unhelpful lies. Shaming people who might have experienced trauma or have medical reasons why a test created by men is scary isn’t helping anyone.

@tigerax @MichelleDewbs What, when you were 5?

I too grew up in a working class family. I was one of 6 & we often struggled to have enough food go around. My parents never saw it as the schools job to give me breakfast tho. These days, there are food banks & charities popping up left right & centre and a welfare system bigger than grannies bloomers… If parents genuinely aren’t feeding their kids breakfast, they should be looked into. But no, instead it’s yet another parental responsibility that will be handed over to the state as we high-five ourselves and pretend it’s “free”. Sometimes I despair. And no, before some of you ask; I don’t think kids should starve… I simply think parents should be responsible for their own children. Old fashioned, I know 🤯

@magda250 @Robptx2ri @MichelleDewbs My parents didn't manage and after my father's death my mother had to wait 12 weeks for any help. Then she had to go to work at 5. We didn't get breakfast.

@Robptx2ri @MichelleDewbs Hey our parents in the 60s and 70s managed to do it and didn’t complain ! Mothers and Fathers had more kids than they do today .. hot up at 5.00 am got the kids up and fed and managed to send them off to school and get to work .. why is it so hard to do the same now!!!

@lisareality1 @A1an_M Which must prove there is footfall and money to be made on the high street yet big companies don't move back

@A1an_M Exactly and we had police houses in every village too… we’ve been let down on a massive scale by poor strategies implemented by successive governments. Out of town retail ripped the heart out of towns, now they’re being filled with vape, nail bars, barbers and cafes.

We used to have lots of places in the UK where you could get most of what you needed within 15 minutes walk: school, GP, grocer, butcher, church, pub, children's playground, sports club. We called them "towns" and "villages". Then along came central and local government. They encouraged large chains to build out of town supermarkets, forcing town centre butchers and grocers and fishmongers out of business. They planted acres of new housing around towns and villages, with no facilities, and too far away from town centres for people to walk there. And they sold off sports grounds and playgrounds for more housing. They built centralised "superhospitals", moving patient care away from their local neighbourhood, while running down the GP service and replacing it with call centres and "apps". They raised business rates and car park prices in town centres, and installed lots of bike lanes and "traffic calming", thereby narrowing roads and causing more traffic congestion, reducing footfall, and sending town centre shops out of business. They closed pubs, playgrounds, sports clubs, churches to save us all from a *checks notes* deadly respiratory virus. And now what do they want to do? They want to recreate those 15 minute communities that we used to have in small towns and villages, but in bigger towns and cities instead. Only they're not doing it by encouraging small businesses to open neighbourhood stores, or reducing local business rates, or decentralising the NHS, ensuring we can all live in that same 15 minute paradise. No, they're doing it by installing traffic filters and CCTV and enforcement infrastructure and fines. All stick and no carrot. Creating new inner city ghettos. There is seemingly no situation which central and local government cannot make worse.

@SteveNuth @djbradshaw64 @A1an_M And then the plans go to appeal after appeal and eventually get passed. Locals and local government have very little power

@djbradshaw64 @A1an_M I guess you can refuse planing permission - that would be called discouragement
