China isn't turning into a “green superpower.” Any renewable energy systems they're installing only add to existing energy sources; they are not replacing fossil fuels at all. China is increasing their use of ALL energy.

@CoreyWriting The Acolyte, Rings of Power, Starfleet Academy, among many other recent others, suggest incredible IPs with devoted fanbases can be buggered up super easy, barely an inconvenience.

Anyone that thinks this won’t be a massive success is delusional.

@HeidiBachram The dildo of consequences rarely arrives lubed.

Dr Rahmeh Aladwan arrested AGAIN for breaking bail conditions for posting online supporting a terrorist organisation. She compares herself to Nelson Mandela as she’s carted away in handcuffs. What an ego.

@FAFO_TV He would be giving the location to all the ISIS caves in 5 seconds flat.

@Bmac0507 Case in point. Gladiator was just utterly wild with the history, but no one cared, as so entertaining. Gladiator II....the wild history became an issue as it was just rubbish. When we're entertained, most people don't care.

Literally no one will care about any of this if the show is good

In 1960, the world used ~1.5 hectares of farmland per person. By 2023, that fell to ~0.62, less than half. Innovation diffused the "population bomb."

German Energy Minister Katherina Reiche: the nuclear shutdown “was a huge mistake.” #CERAWeek

@memechaotic And don't forget about those chem trails.

This is just too much.

@nippon_en Great country, great people, makes sense.

A record 42.7 million international visitors came to Japan in 2025, which was a more than 15.8% increase on the previous high of 36.9 million in 2024. nippon.com/en/japan-data/…

@Homiedino Really, 🇵🇸 is a very niche issue that actually directly affects a very small demographic. The other issues you list, will affect a much wider range of people, but when you have 💣 & images of war on the daily via SM, it dominates. But really, does nothing for the majority poor.

The thing I find most annoying about Palestine becoming the left’s omnicause is it has wiped out activism and messaging on nearly every other topic. Nobody talks about climate change, universal healthcare, corporate consolidation, housing, global far-right ascension, worker’s rights, you name it. Don’t get me wrong, Palestine is very important, but it’s not the only thing that matters and every unrelated group shifting their focus to Palestine effectively cedes the ground on every other issue to the right.

Anyone with even a basic understanding of economics knows that rent controls reduce housing supply and make housing problems much worse. Why don’t socialists understand that economics is like physics? Only morons would fight its laws.

@DefiantLs When you think you're righteous you can twist any old nonsense into a righteous narrative. Or indeed, moral equivalency.

Don Lemon: "We are saying that Iran shoots protesters. Well, so do we ... that makes us no better than them

@DefiantLs Those that have the wealth that can move, will do so. Those, like the middle classes, will increasingly have to bear the tax burden for less services because they don't have the wealth to move. All you will do is radicalise those who feel ever more taxed & put upon by the State.

Andrew Yang: "Wealth taxes are a disaster, because wealth is portable." "I joke with people. It's like, guys, you cannot think that rich people are rancid assholes but that they'll stick around if you decide to hike taxes."

@BBCNews ...."still has to carry out site-specific assessments to ensure the logistics of any clearance are feasible before they can start". AKA the contractor will instantly be adding zeros to whatever magical cost number they dream up.

Taxpayers to fund clear-up of huge illegal waste dumps bbc.in/4sgWUZr

@DefiantLs This just sounds as if a layer of bureaucracy is being added to involve some form of mental health social care worker to dispatch calls. The problem is, who's doing the assessment? Will every police encounter need that worker with them? If so, you're looking at ballooning cost.

Mamdani: "If we want to keep New Yorkers safe, we have to also ensure that we are not just asking police officers to respond to every single issue that comes as a result of the fraying of the social safety net."

@cjsnowdon It's stuff like this that makes a significant number of people think there's money to spend on anything. The seeming lack of any oversight or accountability on spending millions on nothing while we stagger into the next economic crisis just radicalises people.

It’s easy to laugh this off with British gallows humour, but learning the lessons of how we spent £179 million to build nothing is crucial if we are to avoid existential decline.

Masked man tosses 100 paper airplanes off a Chicago building.

@CoopieBastards @wallaceme Oh, lots of Dakka, which honestly, could swing it for the simple fact the other car would be a load of burning scrap metal.

@JMacDaid @wallaceme IT would be propa shooty tho

Help settle something for me: Two cars are travelling from London to Cardiff and back using the same route at the same time. The red car does the entire journey at 60mph. The blue car does the first leg to Cardiff at 50mph then speeds up and completes the return leg at 70mph. Which car arrives back in London first?

@CoopieBastards @wallaceme The other car probably would have been a Lamborghini, with diamond wheels, but nothing is faster than Red.

@JMacDaid @wallaceme But what if one the cars was yellow??
