@Rainmaker1973 Its a soulless festival lmao, love red headed women.

Redheads Festival, held annually in Ireland and the Netherlands.

@onlyrosevelvet @WillMarley65948 @Rainmaker1973 You just said it, online. Online is not a fact. Hell any moron can write anything online, doesn't make any of it a fact or based on reality or truth.

@WillMarley65948 @Rainmaker1973 That's not what it's saying online. Even if China's population is going down slightly that doesn't mean the rest of the world is. Also projected for population to grow to 10 billion people. Visualized: The World's Population at 8 Billion, by Country share.google/Y2skpCmiJwGQLP…

Two 18-year-old students from Pennsylvania have developed an innovative, low-cost exhaust filter that turns harmful vehicle emissions into oxygen using microalgae. Rohan Kapoor and Jack Reichert created the Go Green Filter, a compact device that easily attaches to a car’s tailpipe. The filter uses living microalgae to capture carbon dioxide and other pollutants, releasing clean oxygen in their place. Inspired by research from an MIT professor, the pair spent nearly a year perfecting their prototype. According to Chester County Press, the device costs only about $50 to produce and has demonstrated a remarkable 74% reduction in emissions during testing. The teenagers estimate that if their filter were installed on all vehicles worldwide, it could potentially cut global carbon emissions by more than 16%. A simple yet powerful idea that proves young innovators can make a real impact on the climate crisis.

@onlyrosevelvet @Rainmaker1973 Lmao

I get it but we are still screwed. Even if it was implemented today. We are also growing in population. Still got to deal with other resources and what we are doing with that. 20. If emissions of greenhouse gases were stopped, would the climate return to the conditions of 200 years ago? | Royal Society share.google/QdrSVJBQN1UDH7…

@the_real_ashik @Variety Oh so you were there? How the hell do you know that. Your just making a statement based on a guess with zero facts.

@Variety The professor is completely spot on. The epic was never static; every single rhapsode who performed it in ancient times was adapting it on the fly.

While the majority of classicists are embracing the spectacle of Christopher Nolan’s #TheOdyssey, opinions start to diverge when discussing his adaptation of Homer’s language for the screenplay. There is no single “original” version of “The Odyssey” in a modern sense — that’s because the poem emerged from an oral tradition. “‘Homer’s Odyssey’ was already historical fiction, reimagining an ancient past when it was first composed,” says Richard P. Martin, a professor of Greek and Latin literature at Stanford. “Fellow classicists are happy with Nolan’s version because we all recognize it is a version. There is no ‘correct’ treatment, because every generation makes its own version of the poem, either by retranslation or revisualization in various media. All publicity about Homer is good publicity.” Read the full report on what academics are saying about “The Odyssey”: wp.me/pc8uak-1lHy86

@Sunnydolly8790 @Variety Smh, seriously thats just a dumb thing to write.

@Variety It’s been re translated so many times people think the original is Greek or Latin when in reality those are the only versions not destroyed or lost think of it like Vagina Monologue the first story is lost for all we know it’s a African folk lore re translated

@Ceo_Branding @Variety Lmao, seriously?

@Variety They can try to hate on this all they want but. You don’t get more epic than this film. Literally it’s an all time hit 👇 x.com/ceo_branding/s…

@Variety Thats just dumb, so anything that is documented mythology can be changed by anyone and recognized as the same stories that the recognized original is. Thats just makes no sense. Then whats the point of recognizing the original mythology and how it fits into our human history.

@jmmalgasX @Rainmaker1973 The swamp government doesn't want people self-reliant, they want people to depend on the government to survive. Thats how you control people.

@Rainmaker1973 Freeman's beehives prove that sustainable ideas can create lasting value. Perhaps we should be asking how governments, welfare programmes, and meaningful employment can work together to help people become self-reliant rather than dependent. That's a conversation worth having.

Morgan Freeman is turning his entire 124-acre ranch in Mississippi into sanctuary for bees. Alarmed by collapsing bee populations, Freeman decided to act back in 2014. He imported 26 beehives from Arkansas to his ranch in Mississippi and planted fields of clover, lavender, and magnolia – creating a pollinator paradise across the entire property. What began as a personal hobby quickly became a full-scale conservation effort. Bees pollinate about 80% of the world’s flowering crops – including many fruits, nuts, and vegetables. One healthy colony can pollinate up to 300 million flowers in a single day. Without bees, ecosystems collapse. Food systems follow.

@ProbableSpum @RingkuhNovianti @Rainmaker1973 Well that person is from China so no big surprise there.

@RingkuhNovianti @Rainmaker1973 Not normal... But rather "the new normal."

To maintain a stable population without immigration a country generally needs a fertility rate of approximately 2.1 children per woman. The current United States rate of 1.6 places the nation significantly below the level required for population replacement. The traditional pattern of motherhood in the United States is experiencing a major shift. Provisional data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention show that the national total fertility rate has fallen to a record low of 1.6 children per woman. This decline reflects a 23 percent drop in births since 2007 driven primarily by younger age groups. Teen birth rates have reached historic lows and women in their early 20s are having far fewer children. As a result the late 20s and early 30s are no longer the primary period for starting a family. A large portion of women in these age groups remain child free. Many women are not rejecting motherhood altogether but are instead choosing to delay it or opt for voluntary childlessness. Women aged 30 to 34 now account for the highest share of births. However the trend toward later childbearing is so strong that nearly half of women reach their early 30s without having had any children. Research from the Pew Research Center indicates that these changes stem from evolving social norms and shifting economic conditions. As the average age for beginning a family continues to rise this demographic transformation is reshaping the structure of American families and society and raising critical questions about the future of the nation's population growth.

@ladyvictoria8 @Dr_TheHistories Well guess what we don't trust you either. So Pi$$ off.

@Dr_TheHistories I dont trust republicans..this seems like a republican thing..I hope I'm wrong..

There is an ongoing movement to create the State of Jefferson, a proposed 51st state encompassing parts of Northern California and Southern Oregon. The idea was first proposed in 1941, when residents argued that the rural region received too little representation, infrastructure investment, and government services because political power was concentrated in the more populous southern parts of California and Oregon. On December 4, 1941, local leaders symbolically declared independence from both states and began issuing "Proclamations of Independence" to motorists. The movement largely paused after the attack on Pearl Harbor three days later but has resurfaced repeatedly since then. Creating a new state would require approval from the California and Oregon legislatures, as well as the U.S. Congress, under Article IV, Section 3 of the U.S. Constitution. Depending on the counties included, the proposed state would cover roughly the same land area as West Virginia but have a much smaller population. #drthehistories

@historyrock_ Smh you had one job and couldn't even get their ages correct.

@RBReich Your logic is to blame for our broken political system. Democrats the party of commies, socialists, domestic terrorists and pedos along with deranged ideologues and mental health basket cases. Ya sure your gonna fix the problem smh.

If we want to clean up Trump’s mess and prevent future Trumps from taking power, we must make major changes to our broken political system. Here are the 10 reforms necessary to get anything done.

@WSJ Ya as our education system gets crappier and crappier.

Developers are turning dozens of vacant public schools into rent-regulated housing, making schools the fastest-growing type of building conversion. 🔗: on.wsj.com/4wuPVxK

@TheGunSmokes @TonyLaneNV Wounding a bear is the worst possible idea. If you feel you have to shoot to protect yourself, you shoot to kill. A wounded predator like a bear is ten times more dangerous. You may get away, but the next person may not be as lucky. Injury causes desperation and unpredictability.

@TonyLaneNV I would likely be armed. But I would not keep my cool, no. I probably would have faked a loud roar first & then a fire a warning shot. Worst comes to worst I try to shoot it in a place I feel would be non-lethal. That is if I would have the emotional stability for that procedure.

A woman hiking in Canada nearly became a grizzly’s next meal and the video circulating right now is genuinely one of the most intense wildlife encounters you will ever watch - her dog is with her, a massive grizzly is right there, and somehow she kept her head together long enough for both of them to walk away breathing. That is not a small thing. Most people talk tough until nature is standing ten feet in front of them and every instinct in your body is screaming to run, and running is exactly the worst thing you can do. Grizzlies are built to chase, they top out over 700 pounds and can cover ground faster than any human alive. The people who survive these moments are the ones who override pure fear with pure discipline and this woman did exactly that. If you hike, camp, or spend any real time in the wilderness - bear spray is not optional, it is the difference between a story you tell and one somebody else tells about you. Could you have kept your cool? Hats off to her.

@KATUNews Ok if thats the way it is, then ID cannot legally be required for anything. Imagine the chaos, but thats what socialist commies want.

A federal judge permanently barred President Trump’s administration from implementing most of his first executive order on elections, part of which sought to require people to show documentary proof of citizenship when they register to vote. bit.ly/4w3bx3T

@geoffkeighley I paid 499.00 for my first Xbox series X 1tb and 349.99 on sale for my second one. What a rip off these prices are.

The price of XBOX consoles will increase by US$100 for 512 GB models and US$150 for 1 TB models, effective August 1. The 2 TB model has been discontinued.

@K10original @ScienceMagazine Many people in the US especially in rural communities use game meat to add to or substitute for store purchased meats, like beef, chicken and pork.

@ScienceMagazine I'm on the fence, lol I believe in the work, but then again, how fair is it to the animal? We don't eat deer meat, just a few hunters left in America so how is this helping in 2026?

Remotely tracking animals in their natural habitats has become a central pillar of wildlife research. But on land, the process often involves fitting a collar around an animal’s neck that contains a GPS tracker and various sensors. This requires capturing the animal, which isn’t just expensive—it’s also stressful and dangerous for everyone involved. But a biologist sees a better way forward for this field of study, known as wildlife telemetry. He’s now building and experimenting with devices, described in a recent preprint, that would allow researchers to apply collars on animals without needing to capture them. Rethinking how we put collars on animals, he argues, could bring many benefits to wildlife research, such as improving animal welfare and the quantity and quality of data collected at the same time.

@K10original @ScienceMagazine Just a few hunters left, lmao. You are clueless. There are approximately 14.4 million hunters plus or minus in the United States every year. Smh
