Dutch activist Jesse Aletta van Schaik, who was onboard the Global Sumud Flotilla, says Israel ILLEGALLY KIDNAPPED her and hundreds of others.
“They took off my shirt. Took pictures. Mistreated us all night long.”
“Handcuffs on my hands and feet. They DRAGGED me on the ground when I couldn’t walk.”
“They HIT us. Hurt all of us. The handcuffs were so tight my hands lost feeling.”
“They are SUPER SADISTIC.”
“Shame on every government that keeps trading with Israel. Europe is COMPLICIT. The whole world is COMPLICIT.”

After watching Stephen Colbert take his final bow last night, I made a decision:
I will no longer be watching CBS.
What happened to The Late Show was not just about one comedian or one television program. It was about something much bigger: whether billionaires, corporate executives, and media institutions will stand up for free speech — or bend the knee when Donald Trump comes after voices that challenge him.
Bari Weiss. CBS. The Ellison-controlled corporate leadership. Every powerful institution that believes it can silence criticism, appease Trump, and still keep the trust of the American people needs to hear us clearly:
Enough is enough.
Donald Trump is not a king.
Corporate America does not get to surrender our democracy for access, approval, mergers, or profit.
And the American people do not have to reward cowardice with our money, our ratings, or our silence.
So I am using my voice. I am turning CBS off.
I encourage every American who believes in democracy, free speech, and accountability to do the same. Stop supporting corporations that normalize authoritarianism. Stop giving ratings to institutions that bend when they should stand.
This is how we fight back peacefully: with our voices, our choices, and our power as citizens.
We do not have a king. We have a Constitution. We have a voice. And it is time to use it.

South Australia's parliament to 'debate' abortion. Another reason for Victorians to reject the cookers in One Nation and the Liberal Party this November.

A woman on my flight yesterday switched seats with her husband because their toddler wouldn’t stop crying.
The second she sat down alone, she closed her eyes for maybe 30 seconds.
Just resting.
Not sleeping.
When the husband walked past with the kid later, he laughed and said loudly,
“Must be nice to finally get a break from doing nothing.”
A few people chuckled.
She laughed too.
But something about it felt off because for the entire flight she had been:
holding the baby,
packing snacks,
cleaning spills,
walking him down the aisle,
missing her own meal trying to calm him down…
while the husband watched a movie with headphones on.
And honestly I think that’s why so many women are exhausted.
Not because they’re doing everything alone.
But because they’re doing everything while someone else calls it “nothing.”

Une société qui oblige une personne de 90 ans à utiliser un téléphone intelligent pour accéder à ses services, ce n’est pas une société moderne. C’est une société malades qui oublie tranquillement ses aînés. 😥
En 2026, tout passe par une application, un code, un mot de passe ou un portail en ligne.
Mais ceux qui ont bâti le Canada au dure travail accomplie..et Ce retrouvent aujourd’hui devant des écrans qu’ils ne comprennent pas toujours.
Quand une personne âgée doit appeler son fils, sa fille ou ses petits-enfants juste pour prendre un rendez-vous, payer une facture ou remplir un papier du gouvernement… il y a quelque chose qui ne fonctionne plus.
Le progrès, ce n’est pas quand une partie de la population se sent mise de côté dans son propre pays.
La technologie devrait rendre la vie plus simple pour tout le monde, pas juste pour ceux qui sont à l’aise avec un téléphone.
Parce qu’une société qui laisse ses aînés derrière elle ne devient pas plus moderne.
Elle devient juste plus froide et moins humaine.

A Wharton economist ran a randomized controlled trial on almost a thousand high school students in Turkey.
The result was so brutal for the AI-in-education narrative that it had to be peer-reviewed by PNAS before people would believe it.
Her name is Hamsa Bastani. She teaches operations and information at the Wharton School at the University of Pennsylvania, and the study she published in 2025 alongside her co-authors is one of the cleanest experiments anyone has run on what AI actually does to learning when you remove it from the equation and check what is left.
The setup was a randomized controlled trial, the same methodology used in clinical drug trials. Nearly a thousand high school math students in Turkey were split into three groups and put through four sessions of ninety minutes each. One group practiced with GPT Base, a standard ChatGPT-4 interface that could answer any question directly. One group practiced with GPT Tutor, a version of the same model that had been prompted to guide students with hints rather than hand them the answer. One group practiced with nothing but their textbook and their own head.
During the practice sessions, the AI groups looked like a miracle. The GPT Base group solved 48% more problems than the students working alone. The GPT Tutor group solved 127% more. Every administrator looking at those numbers would have written a press release about the transformative power of AI in education and moved on.
Then the actual exam came, and AI was not allowed.
The students who had practiced with GPT Base scored 17% worse than the students who had practiced alone. Seventeen percent worse, despite having solved nearly half again as many problems in the sessions leading up to it. The students who had struggled the most, who had sat with the confusion and worked through it without a tool to rescue them, were now the only ones who could actually do the math when it counted.
Bastani's team read through the chat logs to understand what had actually been happening during the practice sessions, and the answer was exactly what the exam results had already implied. The GPT Base group had not been learning. They had been extracting answers and moving on, and every moment that felt like understanding was actually the model doing the cognitive work while the student's brain waited for the next problem to arrive. The paper describes it precisely: without guardrails, students attempt to use GPT-4 as a crutch during practice, and subsequently perform worse on their own.
The detail that should follow every conversation about AI in education is the one buried in the post-test survey results. The students who had relied on AI the most during practice were also the most confident they had understood the material. The tool had not just failed to teach them. It had convinced them they had learned something they had not, which is a different kind of failure entirely and a much harder one to correct because the student has no idea it is happening.
The crutch had made them confident and weak at the same time.
