2002 Mercedes-Benz E220 CDI with 2,190,000 km (1,360,802 miles) on the clock. The taxi was imported to Finland from Hamburg, Germany. Not even the Finnish DMV believed the mileage, they thought it had 190,000 km (118,060 miles) on the clock, but instead, the car had 2,190,000 km (1,360,802 miles) The engine is still original. The automatic transmission and injectors were replaced. The odometer was reset twice because it was stuck on 999,999 km (621,370 miles).

❗️The Iranian terrorist regime launched a long-range missile for the first time since the start of Operation Roaring Lion that could reach a distance of ~4,000 km. During Operation Rising Lion in June 2025, the IDF revealed that the Iranian regime has intentions to develop missiles with a range of 4,000 km, which pose a danger to dozens of countries in Europe, Asia and Africa. The Iranian regime denied this. We have been saying it: The Iranian terrorist regime poses a global threat. Now, with missiles that can reach London, Paris or Berlin. The Iranian terror regime has carried out attacks against 12 countries in the region and is developing a capability that poses a much broader threat.

I ran some of my writing through an AI checker. 29.7% robot-generated! Thing is, it obviously wasn't. Ethical and creative reasons aside, the book in question is nearly a decade old - well before technology could do this. 1/3

In 1870, a German chemist named Erich von Wolf was analysing the iron content of various vegetables. He made a decimal point error. He recorded spinach as containing 35mg of iron per 100g. The correct figure was 3.5mg. The misplaced decimal sat in the nutritional literature for decades, entirely unchallenged, because nobody particularly felt like re-testing spinach. In 1929, the Popeye comic strip launched. The creators cited the iron content of spinach as the scientific basis for their character's powers. By this point, the decimal point error was already sixty years old and fully embedded in received nutritional wisdom. The error was identified and corrected in 1937. The correction was not issued with anything approaching the cultural reach of the original claim. Popeye continued punching things. The actual iron content of spinach, 3.5mg per 100g, roughly where it was always supposed to be, is further complicated by the fact that spinach is among the highest-oxalate vegetables known. Oxalates bind to iron and calcium in the gut and remove them before absorption. The iron in spinach absorbs at around 1–2%, compared to 15–35% for haem iron from red meat. You would need to eat roughly a kilogram of spinach to absorb the iron equivalent of a 100g beef steak. There is also the kidney stone question. Spinach contains around 970mg of oxalates per 100g: one of the densest plant sources. Chronic high spinach consumption, particularly raw in daily smoothies, is a documented pathway to calcium oxalate kidney stones. The smoothie industry has not issued a correction. Popeye is still a sailor.

A bizarre situation in 🇳🇴 Norway. ☠️ 🇳🇴 Lillestrøm may be better off LOSING their 🏆 Cup quarterfinal match v 🇳🇴 Bodø/Glimt to maximize their chances of playing European football next season (with guaranteed league stage‼️)! Two editions of 🏆 Cups are being played within one season in 🇳🇴 Norway. The first one was won by 🇳🇴 Lillestrøm, but that didn't guarantee them access to European football. They will need to win a play-off match vs the winner of the second edition of the 🏆 Cup. UNLESS... ...the second edition is won by 🇳🇴 Lillestrøm again or by a team that will play 🔵 UCL qualifiers next summer (🇳🇴 Viking or 🇳🇴 Bodø/Glimt). ❌ 🇳🇴 Viking has been eliminated from the Cup this week, so 🇳🇴 Bodø/Glimt is the only one that remains. 🇳🇴 Bodø/Glimt is the biggest favorite to win the second edition of the 🏆 Cup, so them doing it would guarantee 🇳🇴 Lillestrøm a place in 🟠 UEL PO and a guaranteed place AT LEAST in 🟢 UECL league stage. 💡 But if 🇳🇴 Lillestrøm eliminates 🇳🇴 Bodø/Glimt tomorrow from the 🏆 Cup, they will have to WIN THE CUP AGAIN to avoid a play-off match for the European ticket. Crazy...

Exact same issue for me- I know my previous books and articles have been used to train AI (looking at you anthropic)- & when I run previous articles (written pre-AI) into AI checkers, they can come back as high as 90% AI. It's not artificial intelligence- it's collective human intelligence.
