@LoneStarChica What do you expect from this fascist Italian government?

This is what real consequences for animal cruelty look like: 4 years behind bars, $65,000 in fines, and a nationwide ban on chaining dogs. Italy just passed one of the strictest animal protection laws in its history. Under the Brambilla Law, anyone who tortures or kills an animal faces up to 4 years in prison and fines up to $65,000, double the previous penalties. The law took effect July 1, 2025 and bans permanently chaining dogs outdoors across the country. For the first time, animals are recognized as legal subjects, not property. Organizing animal fights brings 2 to 4 years in prison. Puppy trafficking can mean up to 18 months. Filming animal cruelty online is now a crime, with harsher penalties if minors are involved. Abandoning an animal can cost up to $11,000. The Italian Senate passed it unanimously, and animal welfare groups across Europe are calling it a model for others to follow. 🇮🇹🐶

@AimeTim "I studied moral philosophy with him at Trinity College, Cambridge. I recall he took a class on Derrida" Considering that he turned out quite normal.

I watched the Louis Theroux manosphere documentary. I thought this chap “Myron” seemed somewhat familiar, and then I realised… yes, that’s him - I studied moral philosophy with him at Trinity College, Cambridge. I recall he took a class on Derrida. Things went wrong after that.

@MaitreyaBhakal There is no business like Shoa business.

The holocaust was not the largest genocide or the worst genocide, but it is certainly the most weaponized genocide in history. It was a unique genocide in that never in human history has the victim community of one genocide exploited and weaponized it to commit not just one - but a series of other genocides, of multiple communities who had nothing to do with the initial genocide. Imagine how evil you have to be to do that.

@alexstubb Finland is the happiest country, because all the unhappy people kill themself.

Finland is the Happiest country in the World for the 9th year running. We also climbed up the world brand index from 7th to 5th. I am often asked why we do well in these rankings. I do not think there is a magic potion, but it helps to have a society which strives towards freedom, equality and justice. The basis of it all is a welfare society, a robust education system, a sense of security and a close attachment to nature. There is no such thing as a perfectly happy society, but providing some building blocks that give us a chance to live a meaningful life, to help others, will nudge us in the right direction during the journey of life.

@hoyer_kat @Bloomberg He did a lot to lose trust. Ever heard of Schuldenbremse?

Merz is one of the most unpopular German chancellors ever. What's he done to lose trust? Nothing. That's the problem. Voters don't want strategic political caution. They want change. If Merz won't deliver it, they'll look elsewhere, I argue @Bloomberg 👇 bloomberg.com/opinion/articl…

@mayukh_panja "Investment bankers add way more value to society than drug addicts" was this written before 2008?😁

Berlin is an odd place. When I was working for Deutsche Bank, I found out soon that this is not cool and people don't like it. You are supposed to act a little guilty about working for a big bad investment bank and enabling the evil capitalists. However, if you have a story about how you snorted cocaine in the UBahn that is supposed to ballsy or whatever. You might think I am joking but that is the vibe of Berlin. I have been asked point blank if I felt uncomfortable about working at DB. In case you are curious about how I really feel, obviously no. Investment bankers add way more value to society than drug addicts. It is funny that this is even a matter of debate.

@derWillacker Warum soll der Wolf gegen alle Vernunft im dicht besiedelten Deutschland wieder heimisch werden? Irre.

@RetrAshado Never miss an opportunity to risk your life.

@EylonALevy Yes, Iran is honest.

Iran: “Death to Israel!” Israel: “Freedom to Iran!” We are not the same.

@RebeccaCNReid They fuck you up, your mum and dad.    They may not mean to, but they do.    They fill you with the faults they had And add some extra, just for you. Only children are the most fucked up. Having a lot of siblings helps.

You cannot give nine children adequate time, attention and connection. You are, unquestionably, with nine children, spending less time with your children than a working parent with two kids.

@HomerPavlos Leave Denzel out of it. He's a saint.

So, Denzel Washington wants Black people to represent their culture, but when I, as a Greek, want accuracy in movies about Greek history and Homer's Iliad and Odyssey, I’m a bad person and racist. Interesting.

@MuslimsMatters Blocking the door is retarded.

Don't hide your faith for this dunya, Allah blessed you with Islam, which is a special honor.

@FTBLsection He is 67. Why stop now?

Lazio manager Maurizio Sarri has said that he is quitting smoking. - 420 cigarettes a week - 1,825 cigarettes a month - 21,900 cigarettes a year We wish the former Chelsea man good luck!

@HistoricalWWII Weird

@EgoDriv Cowards die last. By avoiding war and conflict.

Avoid confrontation and you’ll have to deal with more of it. Be ready for confrontation and confrontation will avoid you. Nobody wants to fuck with a guy who’s ready for war. Don’t be a coward. Cowards die first.

@Naturalphilosy That's the spirit!
