Trump is bored with winning the war with Iran so many times, especially when it turns out that the real threat is Cuba, which is only hours away from developing a fully functional invisible intergalactic death ray machine, and must be obliterated immediately.

The ability of Grok to strip women and children was not an accident. Safeguards could have been built into the chatbot, but its creators chose not to. I'm launching this High Court claim to pursue accountability for those choices.

WHAT'S so special about
used teabags? In my house,
every other bit of kitchen rubbish
goes straight in the bin. But not
teabags. They get put on a special
dish next to the kettle to lie in state
for 24 hours in view of everyone.
Are tea bags somehow related to
the Royal Family?

Things might look bleak, but we'll be OK in the end. We've got through this type of crisis before by working together as a team and helping a brave young pilot to exploit a design flaw in the Death Star and... no, wait. That's a movie I once saw. Sorry. As you were. We're doomed.

Helpless? Prayers? That’s what pastors and civilians should be doing. We pay members of Congress to ask hard questions, start investigating,and find out if the government could have done more. Do it now before the next storm. We aren’t paying you to pray. We are paying you to help all of us.

Politics can be complex, but every so often it’s pretty easy to tell which side of history you’re on. For example, if you require the police to arrest elderly ladies for peacefully protesting against genocide, that’ll probably be the wrong side.

The UK has been steadily strangling the right to protest, and so curbing one of the fundamental rights that citizens are meant to have in a functioning democracy. Much of this has been achieved by criminalising 'nuisance'. We risk being a tinpot dictatorship. www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2025...

Atlantic Bluefin Tuna has been documented preying on seabirds for the very first time. In October 2022, researchers discovered the remains of a Puffin in the stomach of an Atlantic Bluefin Tuna caught some 1.6 km off the coast of Newfoundland, Canada. The identification of the bird species was confirmed by genetic analysis.
