"Affluent households continue to spend freely on travel, entertainment, and premium goods, keeping service-sector inflation stubborn. Lower- and middle-income consumers, by contrast, are pushing back, trading down, stretching budgets, or delaying purchases altogether."

Top economist on the economy’s dirty truth: The only people who feel good are ‘making over $200,000’ and ‘have large stock portfolios’ | Fortune

Diane Swonk, chief economist at KPMG, sees a “creep instead of a surge” in inflation. Things are uneasy below the surface.

80 year old former Philippines president Rodrigo Duterte was arrested in March of this year, charged with crimes against humanity for dozens of murders during his 2011-2019 anti-drug campaign of extrajudicial killings.

Duterte is currently awaiting trial at The Hague.

Trump: "I don't think we're necessarily going to ask for a declaration of war, I think we're just gonna kill people that are bringing drugs into our country. We're going to kill them. They're going to be, like dead."

Two panels of screenshots from Star Trek TNG. In the first panel, Dr Beverly Crusher is alone on the bridge of the Enterprise with a puzzled expression as she says: "If there's nothing wrong with me..." And then in the second panel she sits down at the helm and puts her hands on her knees as she continues: "maybe there's something wrong with the universe."
