when they run their hand through their hair and it sticks up in places and it looks so good

collar bones

soft pudgy stomachs they absolutely make me melt

when boys get flustered & A++ bonus points if he giggles boys giggling is everything
that small teasing smirk when they say something they know you like

falling on top of them when they’re asleep and they just very softly go oof

when the jump up some place high and sit and lean down to kiss you

cuddles their fucking cuddles man

messy hair
when they try to be tough but they're soft

getting so into a song that they can convince you anything is a Jam

when they get excited over a meal you cooked

kissing the back of your hand

when it’s an unknown number and they put on their phone voice
blowing their hair out of the way when it gets long

watching them talking passionately to someone else and see their expression change 3 times a second

when they prank you and laugh real hard but you’re like “joke’s on you because i get to hear your cute laugh”
boys getting passionate about nerd stuff?? priceless

boys fidgeting, boys playing with objects in their hands or worrying blades of grass or doing anything stimmy??? perfect

boys jumping up to touch the ceiling why do they do that i don’t know
boys. who. read. if i see you reading in public i will probably propose to you on the spot

boys who are good with animals?

BOYS WHO ARE GOOD WITH KIDS

boys who make dumb jokes and laugh at their own jokes. i love them

boys doodling. jsjsjdndjsjxndndkxjxnx
boys randomly putting together a game in like 5 minutes bc they’re bored and getting SUPER INTO IT and all their friends have taken sides and are cheering and playfully shouting insults??
why are y’all always so down to play and have fun and why are y’all so passionate all the time i don’t know but i like it
(for real y’all will just make a game out of the dumbest and most random things and get SO into it and it’s pure)
boys who are like too tall to fit in the ceiling theres something cute about that you look like you don’t know where you’re supposed to be and gravity is confusing and i get you

but short boys? amazing!!
boys lounging on counters or tables or rails or anywhere that’s not meant to be lounged upon? i love it

boys talking about the things they love

boys listening to you talk about the things you love
boys making jokes with their friends that make. no sense what are you saying my friend i will never know

boys smi,,le

smile at y o u (i cri)

that little laugh they do when they don’t know what to say to that insane thing you just said
that innocent smile boys wear after they do something mischievous and are trying not to get caught

boys spouting off facts that relate to the topic randomly in conversation,, and u just look at them like dang. that’s really cool how do you know that??
boys sending you a good night/good morning message every day without fail💛

cute inside jokes with boys that they always bring up or casually mention when you had almost forgotten it

boys writing handwritten letters or poems are just so wholesome and a d o r a b l e
they become friends over the silliest things and the solidarity is real

hugging a boy way taller than you? 😌👌

hugging a boy as tall or shorter than you? also 😌👌

the way they praise you when you help them in something they were struggling with 🥺
singing or dancing together because they’re just feeling it/flexing - immaculate

complicated handshakes? wholesome

when they do something dumb or even dangerous but somehow make it out unscathed and the whole point was to show love to someone
when they do something dumb or even dangerous but somehow make it out unscathed and the whole point was to show love to someone

the way they talk when they’re sleepy, I’ll never get over it whether it’s a toddler or a grown man

when they get speechless
kind stranger boys who can have a good conversation? Angels

collaborating with them and they’re invested in it? doesn’t matter what the project is, the experience is immediately more fun

when they stand up for themselves❤️
when they’ve recently had a haircut and the edges are nice and clean

long haired boys looking like ethereal princes

boys who a c c e s s o r i z e

when they show a side of them that is very different than usual but absolutely charming
when they use funny voices

having them check in on you even if it’s been a long time

when they remember a detail about you and it’s so considerate and you just feel seen

being adopted by a group of boys is literally the best, 10/10 would recommend
boys and their willingness to forever lend you their pockets (and their hands) to keep your phone, wallet, lip balm in.

boys and their awe when you feed them fancy food they haven’t heard of, and the next time,,,,,
they have forgotten the name or can barely pronounce it, but will tell you that it was amazing and name the one ingredient they remember, and you will know and feed them again

boys offering their man protection services (india can....
be horribly unsafe for girls okay) so you and your friends can get up to all the reckless shit you wanna do

i am out of thoughts now, add some more🥺
aa just boys you know they’re so,,, cute i hope every boy who sees this has an amazing day ily ily ily

The story of Aare Ona Kakanfo Afonja, and the fall of the great Oyo Empire is absorbing. If you're interested in this beautiful history of pre-colonial south western Nigeria, keep a date with me later tonight. 🙏🏾

The Kakanfo and fall of Oyo Empire.
Thread.
Of the 14 Kakanfos so far, the tenures of three of them who were military commanders considerably impacted the history of, first, the Old Oyo Empire, and by extension, the rest of Yorubaland.

The three Kakanfos were Afonja of Ilorin, Kurunmi of Ijaye, and Obadoke Latoosa of Ibadan. The last two of the 14, who were civilians and honorary holders of the title nevertheless impacted the history of Yorubaland, and also the entire Nigerian nation.

Aare-Ona-Kakanfo Afonja:
In the mid-1700s, around 1750 and thereabouts, a powerful Oyo warrior was growing in stature; a man called Afonja. His father was Laderin. Laderin himself was the son of Alugbin, who himself was the son of Pasin.

Alaafin Majeogbe ruled Oyo from 1754 to 1770, and was succeeded by Alaafin Abiodun same year. Abiodun was on the throne for about 19 years, until 1789 when he was murdered by his own son, Aole.
Aole became Alaafin, and ruled from 1789 to 1796.

Story of 3D
So when i shifted to Mumbai, a batchmate of mine helped me in finding a rented house. He was fooled by one of his acquaintances, & me with my sister ended up in an under construction building
1)


Near slum.
It is horrific. But I had no choice since we reached by car 2 am, with my 3 dogs. Area was not safe. Even police avoided to enter it

One day when I got down to get in my car to go for work, I heard a growling.
I bent down to see a dog just in bones, feeding puppies 2

Tried to get her out but her one leg was badly broken & bleeding.
One puppy half eaten by rats, coz rats there were bigger than her puppies.
I used auto but contacted many NGO
Got no help.
I started mixing antibiotics & pain killer in rice to feed her.
Initially I had to push
3

The food below the car. But on 3rd day, she actually came out from under the car to eat from my hands.
She started trusting me. I put bandage on her leg.
Called her 3D 😁 which my sister @doorva207 Found really odd & stupid
3D started recovering. She started gaining health
4

I introduced her to children of out building.
Parents found them dirty, but kids are ❤
We gave all of them bath, vaccination.
They were happy.
But every other day her one pup started getting crushed under a tempo or car
People wouldn't bother to slow down
3D would cry to me

How to Get Rich (without getting lucky):

Seek wealth, not money or status. Wealth is having assets that earn while you sleep. Money is how we transfer time and wealth. Status is your place in the social hierarchy.

Understand that ethical wealth creation is possible. If you secretly despise wealth, it will elude you.

Ignore people playing status games. They gain status by attacking people playing wealth creation games.

You’re not going to get rich renting out your time. You must own equity - a piece of a business - to gain your financial freedom.

MY JOURNEY AS A DIESEL PLANT FITTER
My journey started in March 2005 when I got an offer of apprenticeship from CMED. I knew nothing about cars and earthmoving equipment.

I also did not know what a Diesel plant fitter was (our education should do better on this front, careers should not be accidental). When I was chasing apprenticeship, I wanted to be an Auto electrician. When the CMED advert came out I did not have a driver’s licence

or learners’ licence, which is a prerequisite if you want to train in the Automotive industry. Diesel Plant Fitting is classified under the Mechanical Industry, so a driver’s licence is not required on application. I was, however, asked for it during my interview and I had one

The interview was hilarious, I cracked their ribs every now and then but that is where I learnt how to take control of an interview. (I knew no one there as well). I told them from the onset that I knew nothing about the trade, but keen to learn, that is why I applied

They asked me what I knew about mechanics in general. I responded that I knew bicycle mechanics because that it what we had at home and everything else contained in the O level integrated science book Science in Zimbabwe. So, they asked me about stuff that was in

Thrikkangode Sree Randu Moorthy Temple
Ottappalam, Kerala. 🚩
#keralatemples

This is very unique temple as Shiva and Vishnu both are in the “linga” form in the same Garbhagriham. The Srikovil is in a circular pattern. Temple's Prathishta was done by Parasurama.


Mahadeva and Maha Vishnu in the same Srikovil is very rare Prathishta, but poojas are done separately Dhara is done to Maha Vishnu here. People suffering from “KAIVISHAM” and mental illness are fully cured on drinking a medicinal herb supplied by a nearby family here.


The root of the banyan tree around the Ayyappa Sannidhanam is said to have great powers for skin ailments.

Very ancient temple but was covered with forest for many years.
Later two persons Chakki and Chaathan, while cutting trees their axe hit on the nearby
@SriramKannan77


Vigrahams and it suddenly started bleeding. Later Devaprashnam was held and thus found out that these were murthy's of Shiva and Vishnu which was worshipped long back. And thus temple is constructed here.

🧵EMA + VWAP STRATEGY

Every trader has a go-to strategy that works best for them. My trading is all about keeping it simple stupid and revolves around two indicators - Exponential moving averages and vwap.

Here's the strategy that I utilize on nearly 80% of my trades.

👇

What are Exponential Moving Averages?

EMA's are a type of moving average that places a greater weight on more recent data points.

8EMA = Exponential Moving Averages of the last 8 candle closing prices.

EMA's adjust with respect to chart time frame.

What is VWAP?

Volume Weighted Average Price - A key intraday indicator in my trading that offers the true average price based on price & volume.

Calculation: (Price x # of shares traded) / total shares traded

EMA's I use

- 8
- 21
- 50

While I do utilize the 50EMA, the 8 & 21 EMA are most important for this strategy. Some people use the 9 and 20 which are essentially the same thing. REMEMBER: EMA'S adjust with respect to time frames.

A+ Set Up Criteria - (What I look for)

First thread of the year because I have time during MCO. As requested, a thread on the gods and spirits of Malay folk religion. Some are indigenous, some are of Indian origin, some have Islamic


Before I begin, it might be worth explaining the Malay conception of the spirit world. At its deepest level, Malay religious belief is animist. All living beings and even certain objects are said to have a soul. Natural phenomena are either controlled by or personified as spirits

Although these beings had to be respected, not all of them were powerful enough to be considered gods. Offerings would be made to the spirits that had greater influence on human life. Spells and incantations would invoke their


Two known examples of such elemental spirits that had god-like status are Raja Angin (king of the wind) and Mambang Tali Arus (spirit of river currents). There were undoubtedly many more which have been lost to time

Contact with ancient India brought the influence of Hinduism and Buddhism to SEA. What we now call Hinduism similarly developed in India out of native animism and the more formal Vedic tradition. This can be seen in the multitude of sacred animals and location-specific Hindu gods

So, today, for the first time in 25 (!) years of Apple, I downgraded. From the 2016 MacBook Pro to my 2013, which I had kept in a drawer...


It was pretty simple to do—Apple Time Machine backups let me do it with one click.

That first tweet captures, in two pictures, how badly Apple has “lost the plot” (to quote @wylieprof). On the right is the Apple MagSafe adapter, from 2013. On the left, what I had “upgraded” to.

Thanks, Apple! I really was nostalgic for worrying about yanking my computer off the table.

Oh and I really appreciated not knowing if my computer was charging. What was great was the little whoop sound you used, so that the speaker before me could be informed I was charging my laptop.
