Chefchaouen, Morocco - Wana visuals

 So there's this X post from @wana_visualss with three really cool pics of Chefchaouen, Morocco—the "Blue City." You've got these fancy blue doorways with plants, street cats hanging out against bright blue walls, and a big hillside shot of the whole blue medina.

Chefchaouen's up in the Rif Mountains, and the whole place is painted in shades of blue. Word is the tradition might've started with Jewish refugees back in the 15th century—either for spiritual reasons or just to keep bugs away. Either way, it's a huge tourist draw now.

The photos are by a photographer called awonderseeker, and they really show off how photogenic the city's alleys and buildings are—which makes sense since the account focuses on West Asian and North African culture and visuals.

Rare Pink Dolphins Spotted Off Oman Coast

 A viral photo shows rare bright pink dolphins swimming with a darker one near Qantab Beach in Muscat, Oman. The dolphins are likely endangered Indo-Pacific humpback dolphins, and their pink color comes from blood vessels showing through pale skin—not albinism. The close-to-shore sighting highlights Oman's marine biodiversity.

International Day of RuralWomen

 

Rural women make invaluable contributions to their communities and are key to building a more sustainable, resilient future for all. On Thursday’s International Day of #RuralWomen, join us in thanking them and supporting their efforts. https://t.co/vyTLp5Y2Xz via @UN_Women https://t.co/Xa3m30ZAxV

— United Nations (@UN) October 15, 2026

When I see this post by the United Nations for International Rural Women's Day, my heart turns with profound respect to my grandmother in the village—a woman whose quiet strength and tireless devotion shaped my fondest memories.

Her hands, weathered by decades of labor, prepared feasts that made our holidays truly unforgettable: homemade jams, rich syrups, savory sausages, delicate duck livers, and golden dripping—each bite a testament to her love and craftsmanship.

Her discipline was unwavering, her work ethic boundless. She labored with grace until the final week of her life, departing this world at the age of 81, leaving behind a legacy of resilience and self-sacrifice.

To her, and to the countless rural women around the world who toil unseen and give without measure—I offer my deepest admiration and gratitude. You are the quiet pillars upon which generations are built.

 

October 10 - dark day in civil avaiation - attack on Riyadh international airport

The number of casualties, the number of injured... the pointless attacks... the kidnapped democracy of Yemen... the dead passengers and pilot.

It is difficult to understand why things are going in this direction. Why was there no warning and no sheltering of passengers and crew? Why could it be repeated three consecutive days? Why was the airport not closed after the first attack?

Just thinking publicly...
