More oil is leaving the Middle East now than before the war with Iran began, despite Tehran’s efforts to disrupt shipping through the Strait of Hormuz. Exports have climbed to more than 24 million barrels a day, up from 23.3 million before the war, as Saudi Arabia and the UAE ramp up pipelines that bypass the strait. But keeping the oil flowing comes at a steep cost, with shipping fees and war-risk insurance soaring as Iran continues to attack vessels. And one major escalation could throw the entire operation into chaos again. @ImtiazTyab reports.

Remember when they said to “Trust the science?”
Artificial intelligence finds that a quarter million cancer research papers have been faked
A 2026 study trained an AI on 2,202 cancer papers that had been identified as fake. It then applied this model to look into 2.65 million original cancer research papers published between 1999 and 2024. It flagged 261,245 papers as fake
- Over 178,000 flagged papers had Chinese institutional affiliations
- Roughly 36% of Chinese cancer research output in the dataset
- Iran was next at around 20%
This is a major problem because this can mean the medical community amplifies completely fake research and findings
“Every fabricated study sitting in a real journal is competing for attention with studies actually pointing towards a legit cure, which means the more fake noise there is, the longer it takes for the real breakthroughs to surface. And somewhere in that pile, maybe a real cure is buried under a fake AI-generated one.”
No doctors have gone to jail for this (I checked)

Zelenskyy: "When our strikes reached Yandex data centers, it suddenly became little easier to breathe on many social media platforms. Many people noticed it.
There was less hate, less division, fewer provocations because there were fewer bots. It's pretty clear where those bots were coming from.
If they disappeared when Yandex went offline, this proves once again that Europe is not the source of the problems."
The big problem is that Russia figured out how modern society consumes information a decade ago, but the West hasn't.
There are millions of bots commenting and posting Russian propaganda. There are paid influencers spreading it, with Russian bots supporting their content.
There is a gigantic machine operating to radicalize and influence Western societies, and there is not enough defense in place.
It doesn't just influence elections, it sows discord, engulfs societies in culture wars, radicalizes teenagers, and shapes political decisions when elected officials fail to read the room.
That needs to change. And fast.

🚨🇷🇴 It's Day 13, and many Romanians are STILL out on the streets supporting the man they consider their legitimate president, Călin Georgescu.
You won't see this in the mainstream media, but the Romanians are still fighting!!! ✊

“Zelenskyy could’ve stopped this war many times, and he chose not to … he better damn well stop” — Trump is no longer trying to conceal that he’s fully on Putin’s side

Putin cannot land in Moscow. 😂😂😂
Putin’s plane is circling near Moscow—the dictator is unable to land at the capital’s airport due to a drone threat.
Here are the first "hot" results of the Ukrainian campaign to close Russian airspace.
Moscow and the surrounding region are being attacked by drones and balloons.
Explosions can be heard in the southern districts of the Russian capital—specifically in Kapotnya, Kuzminki, Lyublino, Maryino, and Tsaritsyno.
Due to the attack, four Moscow airports—Vnukovo, Domodedovo, Zhukovsky, and Sheremetyevo—have suspended flight operations (arrivals and departures).

⚠️ WARNING FROM A MAN WHO SAW IT BEFORE
I saw this shit before. With my own fucking eyes.
Poland. 1989.
Communism collapses. Chaos. Overnight everything flips. People lose everything. A few smart and ruthless ones buy state assets for pennies. Boom. Billionaires born.
Russia. Early 90s.
Same fucking pattern. But ten times more brutal. The whole system collapses. People starve. Oligarchs rise. All because they planned it that way. Manufactured collapse. Shock therapy.
The masses suffer. A few monsters get rich enough to own nations.
Fast forward.
United States. 2008.
Real estate bubble pops.
People lose homes. Banks get bailed out.
Wall Street buys back everything that Main Street built.
Rich get richer.
Middle class gets wiped out.
And no one goes to jail.
America didn’t learn a fucking thing.
Now look around.
OPEN YOUR FUCKING EYES!
Gold is at historic highs.
Real estate is cracking again.
More sellers than buyers.
Developers bidding 800K on 1.5M mansions in Florida (my friend just showed me his bid) and laughing while they wait.
Real Estate Prices are not just falling
Confidence is collapsing.
And Trump and his billionaire buddies?
They want the crash.
They are waiting for it.
They are engineering it.
Because when the economy burns
They buy everything from the ashes
With cash
While you’re still figuring out how to afford gas
They don’t care about you
They care about timing
And right now
They smell blood
THIS IS YOUR FINAL FUCKING WARNING
If the system collapses again
The billionaires will feast
The rest of you will beg
And they’ll say it’s your fault
It’s the same playbook
Poland 1989
Russia 1991
America 2008
America 2025?
They’re not saving the country
They’re prepping to own it
All of it
And if you’re still sleeping through this
You’re not just a victim
You’re a volunteer

I don’t understand people who need music playing on a walk. The sounds outside are half the reason for going.

In Tennessee, sleeping in your own car can land you in prison for six years.
Not a fine. Not a warning. A felony.
Cities across the US keep passing ordinances that ban sleeping in vehicles, and the people getting caught are the ones with nowhere else to go. You lose the apartment, you keep the car, and the car becomes the last thing standing between you and the sidewalk. Then the law shows up and makes that a crime too.
The logic folds in on itself. Punish someone for being homeless by handing them a record that makes housing and work even harder to get.
A blanket in a back seat. Six years.
