My beautiful wife of over 43 years died this morning … I am so lucky to have had her love for so long, I’m just devastated it couldn’t have been for longer. Please everyone make sure you do whatever you want with your loved ones now, don’t put it off

Confused as to why politicians say, on another attempted arson attack on a Jewish building, “these terrorists are trying to divide us - and will not succeed etc etc.” Are they? I’d say that diviseness is not the object. I’d say it’s trying to kill Jews.

Thank you for using your military resources to protect British nationals in Dubai from Iran’s ongoing bombardment. Please accept an apology for the refusal of the British government to help you achieve this.
The UAE Armed Forces successfully intercepted over 130 missiles and 200 drones in less than 24 hours.
God bless our men and women in uniform ⚔️🇦🇪

Palestinian Terrorists chose to break a peace deal, and burn these children alive
Stop the damn marches.

Palestinian Terrorists burned them alive on October 7th.
Today, two years on, we remember themㅌ
The Siman-Tov children were burned alive with their parents, Johnny and Tamar, by Gazan terrorists.
These are 6-year-old twin girls Shahar and Arbel with their little 2-year-old brother Omer.
Just in case you forgot why Israel is fighting this war.
“They’re here. They’re burning us” the father Johnny text his sister.
May their memories, along with parents Johnny and Tamar be a blessing 🕯️

I stand for decency, manners, kindness
For obeying the law, protecting kids, defending women
For agreeing to disagree, for cups of tea, pubs, dogs, and always, for cake
The moment you called me Far Right - you lost. I was never alone. We are Britain 🇬🇧❤️

Jim Lovell was a veteran of the Gemini VII, Gemini XII, and Apollo 8 missions before becoming the Mission Commander for the Apollo 13 mission to the Moon.
We are saddened by the passing of Jim Lovell, commander of Apollo 13 and a four-time spaceflight veteran.
Lovell's life and work inspired millions. His courage under pressure helped forge our path to the Moon and beyond—a journey that continues today. go.nasa.gov/41tbrpq

Watching Brian Glover telling a joke in pub with Rik Mayall sitting opposite is what Fridays were made for. I can't mention the title of the film as the copyright people will remove the post, apparently.

Hey, @grok, who was the most famous person to visit my profile? It doesn't need to be a mutual, don't tag them, just say who it was.
