A flat rhombus pattern reads as stacked cubes. It scrolls, and every 2 seconds the three shades rotate, so the cubes seem to flip between pointing up and down

I have never agreed to any relationship where I will set up myself to “allowance”
When it’s not that you are working for me.
So I will then be including that in my monthly budget that I need to set aside one money for one girlfriend, like wtf.
It can’t be me.
Cause I see it as BS to me.
Stay informed, stay alive.

I've always said this: whether you like it or not, what you constantly see, read and engage with online gradually shapes your thoughts and mood.
That's why I find it funny when people say, "I am not my tweet."
Maybe you aren't, at least not initially. But when you repeatedly post, engage with and normalize certain things, don't be surprised when they slowly become part of how you think, speak and see the world.
You may think you're just joking, catching cruise or expressing yourself, but repeated exposure has a way of influencing your mindset without you even noticing.

I might be longing for love, but I’ve never been desperate for it, and I’ll never be.

When my best friend started a new job, she asked me to be her emergency contact. I agreed without thinking twice. I never expected that a few months later, her employer would be calling me because they thought she had abandoned her job.
The call came after she had reportedly missed four consecutive days of work. What confused me was that she had been texting me every morning as usual. Nothing suggested that anything was wrong.
I tried calling her, but she wouldn't pick up.

This Gif reminded me of something that happened when I was in Primary 6.
My mother used to go to work, and most of the time, I would take my bath by myself. However, sometimes, I woke up so late that going into the bathroom to have my bath became a problem.
So, I would just go in, rinse my hands, head and legs, and call it a day.
One day, my mum caught me.
She didn't do much that day...
But the following day, she was around! She deliberately stayed home because of me.
As I picked up my sponge to go and have my bath, my mum collected it from my hand. She picked up the bucket, soap and a big bowl (baff) and took me outside.
That's when I realised I had messed up.
Our compound was an open space; we didn't even have a gate.
As I tried to say, "Mummy, I'm not bathing outside..." she gave me a slap, dragged me and put me inside the bowl.
She started bathing me herself but something I didn't expect happened 😭😭😭

The Stepping Feet illusion itself is strongest as a striking demo of contrast-driven speed misperception, with the fog-driving link as its main real-world takeaway. The stair version of a height illusion has more direct safety applications

Both balls bounce but is it at the same height?

Men, I have a question and need an honest response.
Why would a successful man starve his wife and children?

My best friend's husband recently asked me a question that has put me in a very uncomfortable position. The problem is, I already know the answer.
I've known his wife for almost twelve years. We met in college, became very close, and I was even her maid of honour when she got married.
Over the years, I've been the person she tells almost everything. Unfortunately, some of the things she's told me are things I wish I never knew.........

THE BOY WHO FIRED HIS MOTHER
Seven year old Oliver walked into the kitchen one morning, placed a handwritten letter on the table and announced, “Mummy, you’re fired.”
His mother burst out laughing. “And who’s going to replace me?”
“I’ve hired Grandma.”
“Why?”
“She gives me money, lets me eat ice cream before dinner and never asks me to clean my room.”
His mother folded her arms. “And who’s paying Grandma?”
Oliver smiled confidently. “You are.”
She stared at him in disbelief.
“Actually, Mummy, there’s one more thing. Grandma says she’ll only accept the job if you move into the guest room.”
His mother called Grandma immediately.
After a brief conversation, she slowly turned towards Oliver.
“Your grandmother says she’s charging you rent too.”
Oliver quietly picked up his letter.
Apparently, unemployment wasn’t as funny as he thought.
