15 million people over 115 years old are receiving social security in the US. Seems to be the place to move: you get old and paid!

So unfair 😂
DOGE: Has @doge gone too far? Elon Musk is cutting off everyone over 150 years old from Social Security. These people survived the Civil War and Elon is just going to cut them off? 😂
ALT In a move so outrageously cruel it could make a supervillain take notes, Elon Musk’s DOGE team is slashing Social Security benefits for seniors over 150. That’s right—just when these iron-willed elders need support the most, the billionaire is yanking away their last financial lifeline. Because apparently, surviving the Civil War and every version of Windows Update just wasn’t enough hardship.

Reminder that the world's largest mosaic was completed in 2020.
This is the "new Hagia Sophia" — unveiled just months after the original was converted into a mosque.
And it's the greatest church built for centuries... (thread) 🧵

“Be satisfied with even the smallest progress," Marcus Aurelius said.
You’re never going to be perfect—there is no such thing. You’re human. So instead, aim for progress, even the smallest amount.

Lol. The west lectures us to stop developing our oil and gas resources when they’re burning coal. Siri, what is climate imperialism ?

Acts of kindness that feel small to us have a big impact on others.
Research: kids and adults underestimate how tiny acts of generosity lift others' moods.
There's no easier way to make someone's day than to offer a compliment, give a little gift, or send a handwritten note.

Could we train more nurses? We have a youth, not enough local employment opportunities for them. How can we make international demand for skilled health workers into a win win? #YouthEmpowerment
The recruitment of nurses by high-income countries from poorer nations is "out of control", according to the head of one of the world's biggest nursing groups.
In 2022 more than 1,200 Ghanaian nurses joined the UK's nursing register.

I love @KLM, but just had the most miserable customer service experience with the call center of @AirFranceKLM - Kafka could write 3 books on the French lady "helping" me out - pedantic, bureaucratic, evasive and utterly unhelpful. Something is very wrong there.
