Absolute bombshell. Prominent economist Richard Werner confirms the 1997 Asian financial crisis was completely engineered. He reveals the IMF deliberately bankrupted Thailand to force them into selling off their national industries to foreign elites for pennies!

An absolutely enraging Ontario story 🧵 A disabled man in Cache Bay bought a burned-out lot, cleaned it up, and built a 250 sq ft home he can live in safely with his seizures. He owns the land. Pays his taxes. Harms no one. The town wants him homeless because it's "too small."

The Corn 🌽 test The most helpful, easiest, most readily available and cheapest test in functional GI medicine and the most underutilized. So what is the Corn 🌽 test? You eat a piece of corn on the cob and document how long it takes for you to see it appear in your stool

A Japanese manga artist lost his entire Google account forever after he uploaded private files from an old comic he drew to Google Drive. Google’s AI checked the files and flagged them as not allowed. He asked Google to review it again, but they rejected his appeal and banned the account immediately. He can no longer access years of his private drawings and lost access to many websites and services that used his Google login. The artist said this is very embarrassing and causes him a lot of trouble. He warned that it might not happen to people who always follow every rule, but others should be careful. So Google is scanning files that people upload to its cloud storage even if they are supposed to be private. I wonder how long they have been doing this.

AOC: I think it’s pretty unbelievable that Gaza would not be mentioned once in the autopsy report. I think it was very clearly a major dynamic and a major thread that was happening in 2024. The fact that it’s not even addressed, I think, is a major oversight. And I think that for young people, it was a huge part of the environment. I can tell you for myself as a candidate during that cycle, there’s no way that it was an ignorable issue or totally immaterial. So I think that it’s a real disservice to not speak to that or include or assess that.
