One problem that Americans have to get past is that this *is* who they are.
It’s not an aberration - this is what the US society is.
All that time kidding yourself about being the greatest nation on earth you have been murdering your own citizens and those in other countries.

Japanese car manufacturers have totally missed the EV boat, so are doubling down on ICE vehicles, which are still pretty well all you see on Japanese roads.

It’s one thing for a social group to think themselves a ‘chosen people’ for religious or cultural reasons. But to enshrine a special status in Australian law is offensive to everyone else, and just plain weird.

Statement from our client Dr Randa Abdel-Fattah. It is a tragedy that Adelaide Writers' Week has been destroyed, for nothing. However, this is a massive win for artistic freedom and hopefully a turning point in this time of unhinged McCarthyist witch-hunting. Randa is a hero and we love her.

NEW: Coal-fired power generation fell in both China and India in 2025, for the first time since 1973. The drop came after record clean energy additions in both countries, and was the first time that clean energy was a major driver of falling coal power use.
