Feminist arguments have somehow circled all the way back to: “Women need men to supervise their decisions.” She drinks too much? Men should’ve stopped her. She makes a bad sexual decision? Men should’ve known better for her. She regrets it? Men should’ve protected her from herself. So after decades of “women are independent adults”, the solution is apparently… treat women like children with male chaperones.

I don’t think people are putting enough emphasis on the disturbing part of this France–Niger matter. France secured long-term contracts with Niger from the 1970s that kept uranium prices well below market rates, around €0.80 per kg, while global prices fluctuated much higher and sometimes exceeded €100 per kg. They were essentially getting the uranium for next to nothing. All the while, they never thought to help Niger build even a single nuclear reactor.
Niger is the 4th producer of uranium in the world and supplies 40% of electricity to France meanwhile 89% of Niger live in darkness. Niger powers France. This is why France is destabilizing the Sahel region.

Here is the arrangement, stated plainly: If you live in Venezuela, you get a coup. If you live in West Virginia, you get an opioid crisis and a legislative debate about which bathroom a child can use at school. Same ruling class. Different product for different markets. For the foreign government that won't cooperate: narrative warfare, sanctions, funded opposition, destabilization. For the domestic population that might start asking questions: culture war, algorithmic rage, media that never connects the price of insulin to the price of an aircraft carrier. The tools of regime change were never only for export. They were developed abroad and refined at home. The color revolution playbook: identify divisions, fund narratives that inflame them, keep the target population fighting each other instead of the people above them. That playbook did not stop at the border. It just changed costumes. Abroad it wore the language of "democracy promotion." At home it wore the language of "national conversation." Same hands. Both stages. One strategy.

Europe had two choices: 1. Say NO to NATO and yes to unlimited and cheap energy from Russia. Germany remains a superpower, living standards continue to rise across Europe, the economy booms, birth rates go up, the people are happy, life is good, prosperity. 2. Obey America, push NATO, say YES to every war, commit economic suicide, enter a depression, 1 in 5 economically inactive, 1 in 5 at risk of poverty, record business failures, record bankruptcies, record homelessness, hyperinflation, every year is like 2008, Europe quickly becoming a rundown backwater continent. Almost every European leader chose option 2 without hesitation. And they still are. Proudly. You will still be called crazy for pointing this out.

Potassium bromate makes dough stronger and rise higher. It's been banned in the EU and UK since 1990, Canada since 1994, China since 2005, and more than two dozen countries in total. It's still legal here because it was already in common use before the 1958 law that bars additives shown to cause cancer in animals, so it got grandfathered in. FDA asked bakers to stop using it voluntarily in 1991 and never banned it. What's changed is where it still is. The American Bakers Association pledged in January to have it out of US baked goods by the end of this year and said an overwhelming majority of its members already don't use it. Potassium bromate is still in a variety of large, bagged flour, think 50LB commercial bags. In July 2026, Florida AG, James Uthmeier, subpoenaed a large manufacturer seeking more information on where in the food system it still exists and to ensure it does not reach K-12 schools. We will have to follow the courts to see where this goes but a good rule of thumb is to always check the ingredient statement!

Classic AOC: She proudly tells TMZ on cue that she won't listen to Ed Sheeran's music anymore because of his cowardice on Israel. But her candidate for House Speaker is Hakeem Jeffries, AIPAC's most loyal soldier who funded, armed and defends Israel's genocide. Few are better at feeding gullible fans vapid, cheap and meaningless culture war slop, while doing the exact opposite when it actually matters.
🗣️ Rep. AOC tells @hicharliecotton she is boycotting Ed Sheeran because she says he's complicit in Robert Kraft and other stadium owners' efforts to silence Macklemore.

Sometimes I think of the music that came out of the civil rights mvmt, the Vietnam era, the apartheid fight, the aids benefits, and I remember when artists used their voices, power, craft to try to “make a difference.” And now I look at this pathetic crop we have. Ed Sheeran

I’d never even heard of it I’m until I saw the poop woman.
Saw a big Hyrox poster at the gym and all I thought of was that lady shitting herself. That’s their brand now

It seems difficult to insist that Israelis and Jews are the world's most hated, marginalized and oppressed group - suffering a global epidemic of exploding anti-Semitism -- while the surest way to get fired, punished and cancelled is uttering even mild criticisms of Israel:
Rolling Stone has learned that several venues allegedly told Ed Sheeran's tour promoter that they would not allow the rapper to perform. This came after Macklemore made onstage statements in support of a “free Palestine” and critical of Israel's war in Gaza. 🔗 rollingstone.com/music/music…

Women in Afghanistan, Africa, Iraq - war-torn countries with lack of electricity, no food, no clean water, barely any clothes - they are NOT crying about postpartum and killing their babies. They give birth in dirt huts. 5, 6, 7 kids. No epidural. No therapist. No nanny. No break. And they understand it's part of motherhood and life. They prepared themselves mentally. They embrace it. That is their purpose. This is why even in the West, you hardly hear about an immigrant mother killing her kids. Never. But who IS killing their kids? White women. With the BEST healthcare on earth. Successful and rich husbands. Supportive husbands who provided them a lovely home, best doctors, best hospitals, unlimited money, baby showers, maternity leave, Postmates, therapists. Those are the ones crying on TikTok about postpartum and then drowning their own children in the bathtub. Like, make it make sense. The most privileged women in the entire history of America women who have more comfort than queens had 100 years ago - are the ones crying the loudest about postpartum?
The hardest part of motherhood is postpartum

Interesting
Meanwhile on Chinese TV, they're explaining why America's economics Nobel Prizes don't add up to anything. Zhang Weiwei: every country that modernized needed a first pot of gold -- the starting capital that gets an economy growing. "The West got theirs through violence, war, the slave trade. Ruthless plunder, ruthless slaughter." China earned its own -- "through its own effort and sacrifice." US-trained economist Wen Yi adds the punchline: Western models literally can't explain where that starting capital comes from. "Economics assumes it's given -- by God." Which is why copying the Western model was never on offer for the Global South: "Tell developing nations to copy you -- no pot of gold!"

This is beyond pathetic.
For 3 years I’ve been following the plight of residents living in King Cove, Alaska, a remote town in the Aleutians where people keep dying in plane crashes and medical emergencies because faraway environmentalists and others concerned about the goose population will not let them build a road to an all weather airport located just 18 miles away, in the next town over. They’ve been fighting for 40+ years and have just been stymied again. It’s a complicated story. But: “Underneath all the legalese, the history, and the details is a single ugly question, one that perhaps should never have been asked: How many geese is a human life worth?” (Link in reply)

Very weird
Just a quick one on the Clancy trial. I think it’s another energy harvesting psyop and it’s working because it’s keeping the normies entertained and arguing. It’s almost identical to a case in Ireland from 2020. A mother of 3, also a paediatric nurse strangled her 3 kids while her husband was at work. He showed up just as it was all over and acted very strangely ever since - courting the media and organising fund raisers within days 💰 She was found not guilty by reason of insanity as she had postpartum, was on a cocktail of SSRI’s and had visited a hospital a week earlier and wasn’t admitted. Exact same story. Both incidents happened on the same date: Morley: 24th Jan 2020 Clancy: 24th Jan 2023 Both women were nurses. Both husbands seem suspicious. Both countries divided on who’s to blame. Both sets of kids were 2 boys and 1 girl and had the same initials: Morley: Conor, Darragh and Carla (CDC) Clancy: Cora, Dawson and Callan (CDC)
