Still reeling from the Stanford report on Brexit. Reduced GDP by up to 8% and investment by as much as 18%. The UK Treasury would have £40 billion more each year if Britain had remained in the EU. Devastating self-immolation.

HH is good with traditional leaders . Here he is with Paramount Chief Charles of the English tribe.
This has been widely viewed on Zed-X witj amusement & surprise, largely bc Africans & Europeans alike do not view the European monarchies as tribal. Phrasing it this way has been a wake up call

Fácism slowly snuck in through the back door, a few complaints about immigrants & complaints about indigenous (white) people & religions being threatened by immigration(into Europe) & THEN they built from there!
NOW its full support for a genocide by European immigrants against indigenous people 🤷🏽♂️

Global sea ice continues to set new record daily lows. Yesterday's record low extent was 2,053,000 square kilometers below the 1991-2020 average.
I know I've been posting these images a lot lately, but the ongoing collapse of global sea ice is quite obviously the top story on the planet right now.

Many people may dislike Trump but this is exactly how not to show it. Depicting violence against an individual is wrong in my humble opinion.
Ladies and gentlemen, a 2nd Trump Piñata has fallen in Mexico city.

The ethnic cleansing of Palestinians shifts up a gear with Trump 2.0: Trump now promotes the 'relocation' of Palestinians from Gaza - itself a war crime - calling it temporary or long-term. For good measure he lifted the 'hold' on 2,000-pound bombs for Israel! www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/1/...

Kindness is a strength, not a weakness. It has the power to inspire, heal, and transform. In a world that often values ambition over compassion, choose to lead with empathy.

Why the general public and those under IMF programs fall for this every time is beyond me.
Not sure of the original source of this, but the depiction with the final domino set to crush the pusher is devastatingly accurate.

We know about the Stone Age, Bronze Age, etc. The truth is, we have always been in the Wood Age, but wood does not preserve well in the fossil record. Larry Barham and colleagues found a wood structure in Zambia, made 476,000 years ago, probably by Homo heidelbergensis. It's an amazing find.
