This is very eye opening 86 year old woman compares life in America then vs now She says life was better when she grew up “I grew up in the '50s. It was the best time in the world. Every night on Saturdays, I would go down by bus by myself to the YMCA and dance and have a good time. I'd come home by myself on the bus, walk home in the dark. The door would be unlocked. And I was not afraid of anything. I felt safe. People were more honest. They were more caring. And I think they had better morals, better ethics. I don't know what has happened today that it seems like the ethics and morals have just flown out the window.” She says the world and America has gotten so bad it scares her to have her grandchildren growing up right now Demographic shifts have catastrophic consequences We’ve let our politicians destroy the greatest most peaceful country on earth with immigration We need to bring bad good moral values, accountability and a strong family unit

Bill Maher: You're right about almost everything. I mean, "Let's have more babies and raise them on Mars" I don't get that, but okay. Elon Musk: I think we should be cautious about civilization's decline. We have plummeting birth rates in most places. Bill Maher: Right. And we also have plummeting resources. Elon Musk: No, no. Resources will be fine. Bill Maher: But they're not fine. They're not fine now. Elon Musk: Look, I'm not suggesting complacency. We do need to move to a sustainable energy economy as quickly as possible. But we're not in any danger of resource collapse. Bill Maher: But lots of people don't have enough food or water. Elon Musk: Water? We're not going to run out of water. People say we're running out of sand. Bill Maher: You can't drink the ocean. Elon Musk: But desalination is absurdly cheap. Bill Maher: Then why don't we do it? Elon Musk: We do. It is being done. There's already a lot of desalination. There's plenty of water. This is not an issue. I want to be clear about that.

@D2theB239 @LFC_Wright @JoeRoganRecaps I'm not sure if we are not able to do it or if we lost our ability to create beauty. I look at architecture, art, design of everyday objects, etc and my feelings range between dullness and disgust. Either way... wish you a beautiful day!

Joe Rogan thinks historians are wrong about the true timeline of human history with ancient civilization researcher Cassie Coppersmith after seeing the Kailasa Temple in India: ROGAN: “They brought in an Army of 1,000 men to try to destroy this temple. After 3 years they gave up because they were barely able to put a dent in it.” COPPERSMITH: “It’s unbelievable.” ROGAN: “How were they able to make something like this over a thousand years ago?” COPPERSMITH: “There’s some plausible theories out there.” ROGAN: “They might’ve made the temple with lasers and that’s why they can’t find any stones.” COPPERSMITH: “That sounds totally possible.” ROGAN: “We’re so wrong about the human timeline if they had lasers in India thousands of years ago.” COPPERSMITH: “We have strong evidence that machines could’ve been used in ancient history, but it also could’ve been something so advanced that we can’t even recognize it today.” CONTEXT: Producer Jamie pops in after looking up some information about the Kailasa Temple: JAMIE: “Do you know how many people they think made the Temple? It says 250 people made it over 5 and a half years.” *Rogan & Coppersmith not believing it* ROGAN: “😂😂😂 That’s 750 less people than the amount that couldn’t break it.” COPPERSMITH: “😂😂😂 Sure it was sounds good man.” ROGAN: “I’d like to hire those dudes.”

@LFC_Wright @JoeRoganRecaps What’s rubbish is how no current government, empire, engineer or artist with all the resources on earth can come close to building something like this. There has been no attempt in seeing these things and thinking that our entire human society can do something better.

In Japan, a pregnant Muslim woman visited 7 different hospitals for delivery, demanding only female doctors at every place. Her husband insisted that Islam does not allow a woman to show her face or body to a male doctor, so they needed only female doctors. The Japanese doctor finally asked, “What if the delivery happens at night and only male doctors are available? What will you do then?” Muslim immigrants are now trying to impose their rigid demands even on Japan’s healthcare system.

Asmongold says nobody hates attractive women more than older less attractive women “What’s happening is there’s a group of older women in these studios that are insecure about their age. So they want to replace young attractive heroines with middle-aged menopausal women wearing less makeup. And I don’t think anybody wants to look at that, including those women. That’s why they’re wearing makeup IRL.” “It’s Snow White. Who was the main antagonist? An older, less attractive woman. This is the core story. Nobody hates attractive women more than older, less attractive women.”

The host country for the 2038 FIFA World Cup has not yet been determined or officially announced by FIFA. Hard to imagine it being anywhere else but USA. The official selection follows a formal bid evaluation and voting process that typically takes place years in advance. However, the bidding eligibility is largely shaped by FIFA's continental rotation rules, which state that a confederation cannot host two tournaments in a row. Because of the locations of prior and upcoming tournaments, the field of potential hosts for 2038 is narrowed down:The Constraints: Since the 2030 tournament will span Europe, Africa, and South America, and the 2034 tournament will be held in Asia (Saudi Arabia), these confederations are generally ruled out from hosting in 2038. Eligible Confederations: This leaves the Oceania Football Confederation (OFC) and CONCACAF (North America, Central America, and the Caribbean) as the primary eligible regions. Judging by attendance and ticket sales, becomes a no-brainer.
John LeFevre@JohnLeFevre

America should host the World Cup every single time. We've got 40+ stadiums that hold 65,000+ spectators. The rest of the world combined can barely match that. FIFA ticket sales? 2010 (South Africa): $300 million 2014 (Brazil): $527 million 2018 (Russia): $541 million 2022 (Qatar): $686 million 2026 (Mostly USA): >$3 billion projected Even adjusted for more teams (48 vs 32) and more group stage matches, these numbers are off the charts, and exclude hospitality, F&B, travel, hotels, etc. Just ask Freddy.

🇩🇪 GERMAN KIDS TV PROMOTES VlOLENCE AGAINST “RAClST GRANDMA” The tax-funded KiKA channel shows off a kids video game wherein a “RAClST grandma” offends a black girl. Her objective is to throw grandma in the sewer river. What did grandma do? She challenged her to pronounce German words, told her she needs a simple German nickname, and threw a sausage at her. Young immigrant kids who already grow up with a barbaric culture, are encouraged to hurt elderly Germans.

Each time I travel to Italy, I wonder about the massive economic gap. Why is the North one of the wealthiest areas in Europe, while the South remains so extremely poor? Isn’t it the same country, with the same language, culture, taxes, and laws? Can someone please explain?

We can all see in the video that anything resembling an emergency lane like this is now filled with cars. On/off ramps are predictable and people can easily open up passage whereas here if your lane is blocked you either 1) have to cross through the center lane in order to go around the blockage, waiting in the center lane the whole time it takes for someone to let you in, or 2) you have to just watch all the people in the moving lane get to where they're going while your lane doesn't move.

In Germany and Austria, traffic law requires drivers to form a Rettungsgasse (emergency lane) when traffic stops, creating a clear path for ambulances, fire trucks, and police.

This guy went to Goodwill and found a clock, so he bought it... I bet he opened it up and saw the contents before buying, so of course it was worth the $6. As he was heading to his car, a couple was persistently trying to purchase it from him for $100. They more than likely were the original owners, trying to get there few hundred bucks back. Would you have done the same thing as this guy? Or made a deal with the other folks?

@RedWavePress As some who half-heartedly learned a bit of German in school, shouldn't ads like this use the formal rather than the familiar? It feels a bit too casual regardless of the false cognate.

HILARIOUS: Bill Maher: “NEW RULE: Germans have to figure out a new way to say ‘We’re hiring.’” “Yeah, I don’t exactly speak German, but sorry, but ‘Wir Suchen Dich’ doesn’t sound like you’re ready to hire anyone.” “In fact, it sounds like you need the money more than we do.”

Last photo of Brazilian tourist, 26-year-old Juliana Marins, who was left to die by Indonesian guide and authorities after she fell during a hike on Rinjani Volcano. She fell hundreds of metres down a steep ravine while hiking near the crater of Mount Rinjani in Indonesia in June 2025. She had stopped to rest due to exhaustion and was left behind before slipping off the trail. Remarkably, she survived the initial fall. Drone footage and rescuers confirmed she was alive, moving, and calling for help, but she was stranded deep on a cliff face in extremely dangerous terrain. Rescue efforts were repeatedly delayed by thick fog, landslides, and the steep, unstable landscape. Over the next four days, she remained trapped without confirmed access to food, water, or shelter. She was eventually found d*ad on June 24. An autopsy later revealed she passed from severe injuries and internal bleeding shortly after the fall, not from exposure. The case sparked widespread outrage, with her family accusing authorities of delays and mismanagement.

Robert is thirty-six years old. In 1247, this is not young. Robert knows this. His knees know this. His back has known this since approximately 1239. Robert lives in a village in Worcestershire with his wife Agnes, three surviving children, and two chickens he is not allowed to eat because the chickens produce eggs and the eggs matter more than the chickens. Today is a Tuesday in March. Robert will describe it as a Tuesday in March. The concept of a 'week' as a unit of leisure is not yet something Robert has access to. 5:00am - Up. Pottage on the fire. The pottage is oats, leeks, and some dried parsnip from the autumn store. There is a small piece of salted pork in it, approximately the size of Robert's thumb. It is mostly flavouring. Robert eats around it for as long as possible, then eats it, then thinks about it for the rest of the morning. 6:00am - Field. Robert works the lord's strip first, then his own. The ground is still cold. His boots have a hole. He has had the hole since October. He has packed it with rags. The rags are wet. They will remain wet until June. Robert is technically eating a plant-based diet. He is not doing this by choice. He is doing this because meat belongs to the lord, the deer belong to the king's forest, and the last man in this village who was caught with an unlicensed rabbit spent a period in the stocks that his family still doesn't fully discuss. 10:00am - Brief rest. Rye bread, hard. A small onion. Robert thinks about the pig that was slaughtered in November. He thinks about this often. The memory of fat is a specific and enduring thing when you don't have much of it. 1:00pm - Back to the field. Robert's average daily calorie intake is somewhere between 1,500 and 2,000 calories, the majority from grain. He is doing agricultural labour that modern exercise scientists would classify as extremely high intensity. He is, measurably, running on insufficient fuel. He is aware of this in the way that you are aware of things that cannot be changed: completely, and without drama. 4:00pm - Home. Agnes has made more pottage. It is similar to this morning's pottage. Robert eats it. Robert's teeth hurt. They have hurt for two years. There is no dentist. There is a barber-surgeon in the market town seven miles away. Robert cannot afford the barber-surgeon and cannot take the day from the fields. His teeth continue to hurt. 7:00pm - Sleep. Robert will be awake again at five. He is thirty-six. He will probably not see forty. The leading cause of death for men in his position is a combination of infection, injury, and the slow arithmetic of malnutrition across a lifetime. Somewhere, eight hundred years from now, someone will describe Robert's diet as "ancestral," "plant-forward," and "aligned with the earth." Robert would have a great deal to say about this. Robert does not have the energy.
