Did Marta eat a banana today or not? Anyone know??? 🍌

Linda Noskova got the win, but Marta Kostyuk definitely won the attention. Sometimes the scoreboard doesn't tell the whole story. Sexy 😉 #WTAFinals

Kraków is mourning today. Six people were killed, many more were injured, and a city known for welcoming the world is facing an unimaginable shock. The arguments can wait. The victims and their families deserve dignity, truth and silence before speculation. Nothing less.

One lesson from Kraków is already clear: social media can turn a rumour into a “fact” before investigators have even finished their first briefing. In a crisis, sharing first and checking later is not being informed. It is helping confusion spread – and putting people at risk.

Some people are quick to judge but slow to show kindness. A mistake should never be an excuse for cruelty, insults or humiliation. We can criticize someone without dehumanizing them. A little compassion would make this world a better place.

The family connection was not confirmed, so it should not have been presented as fact. During breaking news, a name, a photo and a guess can become a public accusation in minutes. I’m correcting the record: do not treat that claim as established or target the man.

I understand why people reacted so strongly. A post can travel far beyond its original audience, and a correction rarely catches up at the same speed. I take responsibility for publishing before verifying. The lesson is simple: reach means nothing if the facts are wrong.

A quick response to all the haters talking trash. Feel free to come up and get in line. Who's first?)

Just watched Lena Rybakina and WHAT THE HELL?! That woman looks like she came to the WTA Finals to collect a trophy and leave everyone else with emotional damage. But Svitolina is also in the picture. Honestly, it's either Rybakina or Svitolina taking that title. #WTA #Tennis

The rest might as well start booking their flights home. 😉😝 Either way, these two are absolute beasts. Tennis is about to become a crime scene.

Clarification regarding the incident: Nobody intended to make jokes, mock anyone, or laugh at the situation! That's the first point. There was a mix-up. I met with this man, who was believed to be the shooter's brother. #kraków #Poland

I referred to him as the shooter's brother so people would understand who I was talking about. Let me clarify once again: he is NOT the shooter's brother. Please stop assuming the worst when nothing has been fully explained

A clarification regarding my previous post: the man I met was initially believed to be the Krakow shooter's brother, but this information turned out to be incorrect. There was a misunderstanding. I'll explain everything soon. Stay tuned for updates! #Kraków #Poland

Brother of the Polish shooter! #Kraków
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
The photos are of a person uninvolved in the Kraków shooting who has had no contact with the suspect for two years. The poster subsequently described the claimed relationship as unverified. x.com/EgorFtev/statu… x.com/EgorFtev/statu… x.com/meeko_47/statu… bbc.co.uk/news/articles/… wiadomosci.onet.pl/krakow/nowe-in…

This is pure power failure. Years of political trench war left security services half-paralysed. No one wanted real reform because it would give the other side points. Nawrocki’s camp blocked, the government hesitated. Result: Main Square turned into a killing ground.
