@ChrisO_wiki 77 000 000 Americans voted for this lunatic, and this is his 2nd term, which will not end until 20/1/29. I really, really wish I had a time machine right now.

This is actually real. My God. (I will say though that's it's very on-brand for Trump to announce war crimes in advance.)

@JayinKyiv A fine preview of their future.

The very essence of Russian culture on display as relatives of a soldier killed in Ukraine while murdering people for money fight over the death benefit cash right at the cemetery.

FFS...

@vurnt22 It's artistry & talent of the highest order, and that sense of time! You don't need a metronome to know where to place the beats - it's all there in his voice.

@AdrianReyn79551 I don't believe I've seen anyone take that much of beating, for all 12 rounds, without the fight being stopped. Couldn't happen to a nicer guy though...

🚨 𝐅𝐥𝐚𝐬𝐡 𝐁𝐚𝐜𝐤 𝐖𝐡𝐞𝐧 Manny Pacquiao was on God Mode⚡️💀‼️

@NMAsiaPac @RusEmbAU Nonetheless, I'm proud we stand next to Denmark at #9. This is a this fierce competition after all:).

@RusEmbAU what does Australia have to do to make the top 5 most hated countries by Russia?

When this administration is over, normal Americans will realise just how badly you have F’d up. We have been incredibly consistent allies. It’s you that has treated us like dirt. In the Falklands, you gave us aviation fuel, Sidewinders, and intel. We lost hundreds of men. Our sovereign territory was invaded. We where thankful for the support you did give us. The UK has done far more for you in this war than you did for us then. We will not be held accountable for this abomination of an administration. This is the biggest loss of American influence the world has ever seen and that saddens me greatly.

@realMAG1775 It's not Europe's job to relieve you of the consequences of your stupidity.

I love watching Europeans tie themselves in knots. It’s so damn easy. They scream about American “imperialism” while begging us to defend their borders, their energy, their entire continent. Then refuse to lift a finger when we ask for help securing the Strait of Hormuz.

Hey @NASA 🤔 Did you tell the #ArtemisII crew to jiggle the handle? 👉🏻🚽 That usually works for me. 🤷🏼😉

“I'm sorry, Dave. I'm afraid I can't do that.”

@RasmusJarlov @brave_romania Tbf, this is a highly competitive list. Nonetheless I feel your pain whilst being proud to join you at #9🇦🇺.

@brave_romania How the hell does Denmark only rank 9??!? We are THE leading donor to Ukraine per capita and it is not even close 😡😡😡😡 F you Russia for not recognising us.

🇷🇺 Russia's latest Top 10 "unfriendly countries" ranking (Vzglyad outlet, points index): 1. 🇱🇻 Latvia (90) 2. 🇱🇹 Lithuania, 🇫🇮 Finland, 🇪🇪 Estonia (85) 3. 🇩🇪 Germany, 🇫🇷 France (75) 4. 🇧🇪 Belgium (70) 5. 🇳🇱 Netherlands, 🇺🇸 USA (60) 6. 🇬🇧 UK, 🇪🇸 Spain, 🇵🇱 Poland, 🇵🇹 Portugal, 🇷🇴 Romania (55) 7. 🇮🇹 Italy, 🇨🇦 Canada, 🇸🇪 Sweden (50) 8. 🇧🇬 Bulgaria (45) 9. 🇦🇺 Australia, 🇬🇷 Greece, 🇩🇰 Denmark, 🇳🇿 New Zealand (40) 10. 🇱🇺 Luxembourg, 🇳🇴 Norway, 🇲🇰 North Macedonia, 🇭🇷 Croatia, 🇨🇿 Czechia (35) The ranking reflects perceived hostility toward Russia.

@JayinKyiv The smarter ones figured this out the day they invaded, and promptly left. And left again after the first mobilisation was announced. What remains are the New Serfs.

You decided to get your dog a puppy so that she'll never be lonely and then this happened.. 🥺

A newborn sperm whale can’t swim. It starts sinking the second it’s born. If nobody pushes it to the surface, it drowns in mile-deep water. On July 8, 2023, a sperm whale named Rounder went into labor off the coast of Dominica. Researchers from Project CETI, a $33 million AI initiative out of MIT, Harvard, and Northeastern that’s trying to decode whale language, happened to be there doing routine fieldwork. They had drones in the air and underwater microphones running. What they captured over the next six hours just got published in two papers, one in Science and one in Scientific Reports. Eleven whales gathered at the surface before Rounder even started delivering. Her mother, Lady Oracle, was there. So was her daughter Accra. Three generations in the water. But the wild part: half those whales belonged to a completely separate bloodline that normally keeps its distance from Rounder’s family. On a typical day, these two family lines split off to hunt in different areas and rarely cluster together. For the birth, they all converged before labor started. The unrelated family somehow knew it was coming. The delivery took 34 minutes. Sperm whale calves come out tail-first with their flukes still folded from the womb. They haven’t developed the oil-filled organ in their heads that helps adult whales float, so the moment they’re born, they’re dead weight in the ocean. Every adult whale in the group, related and unrelated, started taking turns pushing the calf up to breathe. They kept this rotation going for three hours. When a pod of pilot whales (known to be aggressive toward sperm whales) and a large group of Fraser’s dolphins showed up during delivery, the adults formed a wall around the newborn until the threat passed. The underwater audio is where it gets interesting. CETI’s microphones picked up the whales changing their vocal patterns during the birth. The click-based sounds they use to talk to each other shifted at specific moments, and vowel-like structures appeared in the recordings. This builds on what CETI found in 2024 when they ran machine learning on over 8,700 recorded whale calls and discovered sperm whale communication isn’t a basic 21-sound code. It’s a system of about 300 distinct sound combinations, with the whales adjusting rhythm and timing in real time, speeding up and slowing down the way a musician does mid-performance. A 2025 follow-up from UC Berkeley found these clicks also contain vowel patterns, something scientists had assumed only humans could produce. Sperm whales carry the largest brain of any animal on the planet. About 9 kg. Roughly six times heavier than yours. The evolutionary analysis in the new Science paper suggests this kind of cooperative birthing goes back over 36 million years, to the common ancestor of all toothed whales. The calf was spotted a year later, swimming with its family.

@mattklewis That Vernon Reid riff will endure long after Trump is reduced to ashes. Indestructible.

How could they have known who we’d elect president?
