Don’t particularly feel sorry for any business owner whose enterprise is only viable because they pay poverty wages.
Peter McCormack 🏴‍☠️🇬🇧🇮🇪@PeterMcCormack

A minimum wage of £15 would end my coffee shop, it would have to close, as would many other businesses. I’ll explain for the economically illiterate. Staff costs are currently half our costs, a £15 minimum wage is actually more than £15 an hour for the company, because you have to add: - 12.07% holiday - Sick pay - Maternity pay if and when required - National insurance - Pension contributions These costs would mean the shop loses money because remember, energy costs are up, rates are up, regulations are up. Now you can pass these costs onto the consumer - that would mean charging a lot more for coffee, people won’t pay it. The likes of Starbucks and Costa can, because they have economies of scale. The independent doesn’t. Now the little socialist will say well this is your fault, if you can’t run a business that can afford to pay its staff properly, but the little socialist has never run a business and does not understand the dynamics. Now I could pay some staff off and fill those hours myself or reduce us to one staff member during certain periods - but this proves the point that a minimum wage costs jobs. There was a time when these jobs were done by kids, perhaps on the weekend, paid a lower wage, no holiday and no silly employment rights. Perhaps they were even paid cash. The dynamic worked and small businesses like this could operate. It was also a great first job. Sadly now it isn’t worth employing entitlement youngsters at this level of pay. So alas, I don’t need the stress, the business would close, a number of jobs would be lost. Economics is about understanding these dynamics, no vibes. The cost of living is not solved through passing on inflation to the business, it is solved by ending high inflation and creating prosperity. This is what socialists don’t understand, they can’t create prosperity, they can only destroy it.

@PhilipProudfoot @JamesMainw41767 So it’s ok to have lower paid jobs, they’re valuable to young people or as second jobs or to people who want to learn a new industry. Not every job need to be paid well enough to run a household on. Entry level jobs and part time work for beer money also have a place

A 34 year old woman is ovulating a 34 year old egg. That egg has been sitting in her ovaries since before she was born. She started with 6 to 7 million of them. By birth, she had 1 to 2 million. By puberty, 300,000. Most women hear this and think their eggs are just deteriorating year after year. They are not. When the eggs are dormant, they have low metabolic activity. That is what keeps them viable for decades. The real test comes in the final 3 months before ovulation, when the egg wakes up, metabolic activity spikes, and it either has what it needs or it does not. This is the part nobody talks about. You cannot undo 34 years of aging. But you can change the environment your egg matures before it is ovulated. How you are eating, sleeping, and living in these few months before conception directly affects the egg you ovulate. Most women are told there is nothing they can do about egg quality. That is not true. This is what we work on at Ferta.

Powiem wam jak jest w Szwecji. - dzieci mają opiekę medyczną w 100% za darmo. Włącznie ze stomatologiem. Są wzywane na przegląd zębów co pół roku. - dorośli płacą za każdą wizytę u lekarza około 70 zł. Za pobyt w szpitalu, za wezwanie karetki są opłaty. - jeśli nie odwołasz wizyty na 24 godziny dostajesz rachunek. Nie ma wyjścia trzeba zapłacić. - jeśli dziecko lub osoba dorosła czuje się źle, nawet z gorączką ponad 40st., to do 3 dni nie ma szans na wizytę u lekarza. - źle się czujesz? Weź paracetamol. - generalnie nie dzwoń i nie zawracaj dupy - ale jeśli zachorujesz na poważną chorobę masz najlepszą opiekę na świecie i dostęp do najlepszych terapii. Tylko trzeba być na czas, żeby nie zejść z tego świata. - mocni w gębie i ci co nie dają się zepchnąć mają szansę. x.com/FremdenlegionP…

An Israeli settler is recorded at the Cathedral of Saint James in occupied East Jerusalem. He spits, looks straight at the camera, spits three more times, then gives the middle finger while using his opposite hand to make a cross.

@IterIntellectus With a good lifestyle after several months, sperm quality/DNA will improve significantly. Similarly, women can improve egg quality! (Not many know this)

the average american father in 1970 was 27. now he's 32. fathers over 50 double the autism risk in their kids (2.2x, controlling for maternal age), 14% more NICU admissions, 14% more preterm births, 18% more seizures. sperm DNA damage is dose-dependent and cumulative, you cannot un-age a gamete, no matter what you take or how successful you are the pronatalist conversation talks about women's fertility window like men don't have one. men have one. it's just longer and less visible.

You've been looking for two years. Saved the deposit. Got the mortgage rate locked in. Paid the solicitor. Paid for the survey. Exchange due tomorrow. Then the estate agent rings. The council has offered £20,000 more. Cash buyer. No chain. The vendor takes it. You were tomorrow's buyer. Didn't matter. You still owe the solicitor £2,200. The survey money is gone. Your landlord says he has new tenants lined up for June. A friend explains the logic. A hotel room costs the council thousands a month. Mortgage on that house: maybe half that. The £20,000 premium pays back quickly. The spreadsheet wins. In Richmond, Westminster Council bought a block of 32 flats for about £16m to use as temporary accommodation. Sitting tenants were given notice. One neighbour put it better than any politician: people are being made homeless to house the homeless. Crawley says temporary accommodation now consumes £2 of every £3 it collects in council tax. The state publishes the homeless. It publishes the hotel bill. It publishes the children in temporary accommodation. But not the displaced. The homeless are counted. The displaced are not.

Poland will be as rich as the UK by 2030. In 1980, the UK was 62% richer per person. The IMF now projects the gap at 4%. Poland $75,000. UK $78,000. This is what compounding looks like when one country chooses pain and the other chooses comfort. On January 1, 1990, Poland flipped the entire economy in a single day. Price controls gone. Subsidies cut. Currency made convertible. The architect of the Balcerowicz Plan believed gradualism would kill the country, so the whole package took effect simultaneously. GDP shrank 18% over two years. Unemployment went from artificial zero to over 12%. Real wages collapsed. It was brutal. It worked. Poland has now grown for 33 consecutive years, the longest uninterrupted expansion in modern European history. GDP per capita at PPP has grown around 6% a year for two decades. EU funds added roughly one percentage point of GDP growth annually from 2004 to 2013. Poland passed the trillion-dollar economy mark in September 2025. In 2009, every other EU economy contracted. Germany fell 5.6%. The UK fell 4.2%. Poland grew 2.6%. They called it the green island on a continent of red ink. Now look at the UK. From 1992 to 2007, GDP per person grew 2.34% a year. Since 2008, that rate has dropped to 0.46%. UK GDP per capita only returned to its 2019 level in 2022, then fell again in 2023. The productivity gap with France and Germany tripled from 6% in 2007 to 16% by 2019. Brexit knocked an estimated 6 to 8% off output. Two decades of essentially zero productivity growth is unprecedented in 160 years of British data. Poland chose the 18-month depression in 1990 and ran 6% compounding for 35 years. The UK avoided every short recession with austerity, then Brexit, and ran 0.5% compounding for 15. The 18% Poland lost in two years was the cheapest GDP it ever bought.

imagine this happening to you. there is no one you can call. there's a soldier up ahead ready to arrest you if you dare defend yourself. the only reason you are even seeing this is because there's a leftist Jewish Israeli activist filming it from inside, where he's trying to protect the family by documenting what Israeli settlers do on a daily basis.

Research in Finland found that simply changing what children play on can quickly influence their immune system. Scientists redesigned parts of nursery playgrounds by swapping gravel and asphalt for natural forest materials, soil, moss, leaf litter, and native plants, so kids would be exposed to the microbes found in nature. After just 28 days, clear biological differences emerged. Children who played in these “rewilded” spaces developed a richer mix of microbes on their skin and in their gut. They also showed higher levels of regulatory T-cells, which help the body manage inflammation and reduce the risk of immune overreactions like allergies. These changes were not observed in children who stayed on conventional playground surfaces. The findings support the biodiversity hypothesis, the idea that limited contact with natural environments, especially in urban life, may be linked to rising allergies and autoimmune conditions. What stands out is how simple the intervention was. This wasn’t extreme outdoor exposure-just everyday play in a more natural setting. Even small, regular contact with soil and vegetation appears to shape the body’s internal ecosystem and how the immune system develops.

@gil_baits Umiarkowany kontakt z alergenami jest ok. Natomiast unikanie bakterii/chorych dzieci/ dorosłych przez pierwsze kilka miesięcy życia jest rozsądnie. Bardzo ważne jest karmienie piersią przez jak najdłuższy czas. To pomaga modulować układ odpornościowy i zmniejsza ryzyko alergii

Pisałem kiedyś, że mam koleżankę, fanatyczkę czystości: np dzieciak chciał "na rączki", kazała mi myć dłonie zanim go wezmę. Dziś jest uczulony prawie na wszystko, ma nawet jakieś alergie "krzyżowe"? Pytanie do znawców: Czy sterylność nie przynosi więcej szkód niż korzyści?
