Following a bio lab accident in Russia, which caused the breakout of the plague pathogen (pestis bacteria) and the death of at least one lab technician, 5 hospitals in the Irkutsk region have been put under strict quarantine. The quarantine is not voluntary.

What a lie. Some of these people are being imprisoned indefinitely in squalid condition in African prisons. Others report being beaten and arbitrarily deported in violation of international law back to their home countries, where they face persecution or torture.

The indefinite nature of their confinement has taken a severe toll. In October 2025, a Cuban man who was on the July flight went on a hunger strike for a month-until he started showing signs of organ failure —to protest the conditions of his detention, including his ongoing confinement and lack of access to legal counsel.
Terrified of being imprisoned in Eswatini forever, another man repeatedly told his attorney that the prison there never lets people go. One man told his attorney that he feels like a caged animal with no end in sight. The prison does not have air conditioning, making the hot, humid summer months especially uncomfortable for the men.
Food is insufficient, medication is scarce, and requests often go unmet or are belatedly met.

CDU/CSU, SPD, Grüne and Linke politicians should ask Alice Weidel and other AfD leaders a simple question: "Do you agree with Steimle and Siegmund's statements about Wessis and West German culture?"

Even to bloody demand it at any stage is, frankly, full-on antisemitic. No party should be entertaining anyone who would even consider that acceptable. Demand rejection of the JDA definition, you just want to be a bigot.

If you effectively demand Jews be targeted for attending Shul, and demand that you reject and campaign against *this* definition of antisemitism, then you’re a bloody antisemite, pure, plain and simple.

The "zionism is racism" motion that has just passed on the Green Party's conference floor is truly gross, and deeply racist. The party's MPs deserve some credit for opposing it, though they should've done so more stridently and sooner. This is now a millstone around the party's necks. Deservedly.

The Russian way of war: attack everyday necessities and kill civilians to instill terror and render society dysfunctional. As in Aleppo, so now in Kyiv. If they could drop barrel bombs they would.

I am not very worried about about the Tory Tapestry’s misuse of “doth”. What worries me much more is this sequence of panels which seems to show a small boat full of brown-skinned people followed by a plague of rats running riot and then a lot of dead white people labelled tax payers.

Detail from Conservative Party mock Bayeux Tapestry showing 1. A boat full of brown skinned people. 2. Enormous rats chasing cats. 3. White-skinned “tax payers” dead in the streets.

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:

Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads:

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

Pope Leo XIV presented his first encyclical at the Vatican on May 25 and set the fight over AI beside the Church’s long campaign against nuclear weapons. Days earlier, according to the NYT, Anthropic had threatened to walk out of the launch over the pope’s stance on machine consciousness.

NYT: Anthropic Nearly Walked Out on Pope Leo XIV’s AI Encyclical — Then Lobbied His Advisers

Chris Olah saw an advance copy of Magnifica Humanitas days before the Vatican launch and proposed withdrawing over its stance on machine consciousness. The pope held his ground.
