My husband Joe.
Last night we flew home from vacation with two of our kids.
As soon as the plane took off, our 18-year old daughter became violently sick.
For over three hours, he wiped her forehead with a damp napkin. He fed her small pieces of ice and smoothed her hair back from her face.

I wish every living former U.S. President would stand up, hold a press conference, and tell the world Trump’s treatment of Zelensky is not right. Who’s with me?
Friends, you have no idea what it’s like to be Ukrainian at this moment.
We’ve been through much harder things over the last 3 years and 4 days. But this is still a punch to the stomach like few others.
Thank you for your solidarity. Especially to those in the United States of America who don’t endorse this monster.

As a middle aged, British 🇬🇧 wife and mother I don’t normally swear on Substack but I feel compelled to say this:
Trump you are not fit to lace Zelenskyy’s boots. Shut the fuck up you bullshitting fucker and tell your long lashed bitch Vance to do the same.
Feel free to restack, I need a cup of tea.

I’m quite surprised at how many sensible people wonder, like me, if Putin doesn’t have something on President Trump
If it WAS true, what would have been happening that isn’t happening now ?

This is why I couldn’t get behind this book even though everyone loved it. It had a lot of good points but this take is 💯
Honoring a REAL President of honor, integrity, and bravery on Presidents Day. 🇺🇦

A reminder: Vladimir Putin could end the war in Ukraine right now, just by ordering his soldiers to go home. No need for treaties or negotiations.
It becomes so simple it almost hurts that you didn’t think this way from the start.

Now I know that investing for the long term is the way.
Warren Buffett is a legend, but copying him won’t make you rich.
Buffett built his empire in a different era, with different rules. He buys entire companies, negotiates private deals, and gets terms you and I never will. Thinking you can "invest like Buffett" with your Robinhood account is like thinking you can play in the NBA because you made a three-pointer at the gym.
Instead of idolizing Buffett, study today’s markets, adapt, and find YOUR edge.
Agree or disagree? Let’s hear it.
