ΕΞΑΦΑΝΙΣΗ ΤΟΥ ΣΑΪΦ(ον.) ΕΛΣΑΟΥΝΤΙ (επ.) 13 ΕΤΩΝ

In 1987, Patrick Stewart refused to unpack his suitcase for six straight weeks.
My throat still tightens every time I read why.
Every Hollywood insider told the 47-year-old British stage actor that Star Trek: The Next Generation would be a disaster. Even his closest friend, Ian McKellen, begged him not to throw away his Shakespearean career on a television gamble.
Stewart kept his bags packed by the door, waiting to be fired and sent home to London.
That "six-week failure" lasted 36 years.
Watching him late at night here in Japan, we saw something Hollywood never expected.
In Japan, we call this quiet, unbreakable spirit "Fudoshin," an immovable heart under fire.
Most action heroes scream and fire weapons to look strong.
Captain Picard never needed to raise his voice.
Born into deep poverty in Yorkshire, terrified of a violent home, he left school at age 15 and lost all his hair by 19, convinced his life as an actor was over before it began.
Yet one English teacher, Cecil Dormand, handed that frightened 12-year-old boy a copy of Shakespeare, said "Read it out loud," and secretly paid for his first drama course.
Never forget what happened decades later.
On the morning Queen Elizabeth II knighted him as Sir Patrick Stewart, he invited that same retired schoolteacher to sit beside him at his knighthood luncheon.
No suitcase left unpacked.
No rage on the bridge.
Just a cup of Earl Grey tea, a tug of his uniform, and three quiet words that commanded the galaxy:
"Make it so."
He passed away at 86 surrounded by live music, prayer, tears, and laughter.
And this December, in Avengers: Doomsday, Professor X will grace the screen one final time.
A boy who thought he wouldn't last six weeks in Hollywood gave the world an eternity of nobility.
From Japan, with tears and our deepest salute:
Thank you, Captain. Engage. ✨🖖🇯🇵

This is a lie. A humiliation of women through costume. You are being expected to see something absurd and pretend it is perfectly normal. It isn’t. It’s grotesque bullying.
The women face persona, a tool of humiliation … Of women.
And the more you accept this bollocks without question, the further they will push the boundaries of what they demand you believe.
Don’t accept this 🔥

SIR PATRICK STEWART (1940-2026)
Before everything else, Patrick was defined by being born and bred in Yorkshire, the proud county in the north of England which he loved to the end. You could hear it in his accented voice and in the stern honesty with which he told you what he thought and felt. Yorkshiremen have no truck with half-truths or avoidance of big issues. He wore his heart on his sleeve, which made him a man to rely on, to admire and in my case, love.
We first met as ambitious young actors with the Royal Shakespeare Company half a century ago but we weren’t in the same productions. My first strong memory was a few years later, meeting him in the street in central London when he told me about an offer to take over a leading part in 'Star Trek'. “But Patrick think of your stage career in the UK. Do you really want to risk—getting lost in Hollywood for years and years?”. Well, he took the risk and thank goodness for us all that he did for not just his devoted Trekkies but film and theatre audiences, who marvelled at his using international celebrity to star in a string of cinema successes ('X-Men' of course) and in great classical plays by Shakespeare, Ibsen, Arthur Miller, Peter Shaffer, Pinter and Beckett at Stratford-upon-Avon, in London’s West End and on Broadway.
America was his adopted home, where he met his adored Sunny who has cared for him through sickness and health, through thick and thin. But he never forsook his origins: and the proudest achievement of the most respected and beloved actor of his generation on either side of the Atlantic, was his appointment as Chancellor of Huddersfield University in Yorkshire.
His farewell performance in 'Avengers: Doomsday' is yet to be seen.

🚨 Breaking: After a three year battle, County Durham and Darlington NHS Foundation Trust has finally changed its policy on single-sex spaces for staff to bring it in line with the law.
It is amazing how simple it is! Now all NHS Trusts must urgently follow suit.
Bethany Hutchison, President of the Darlington Nursing Union and lead claimant in the case, said:
“This short sentence in a policy has taken women three years of fear, humiliation and extraordinary personal sacrifice to secure.
“We were nurses asking for the most basic protection: somewhere private and safe to undress at work, away from members of the opposite sex. Instead of listening, the Trust told us to compromise, broaden our mindset and be more inclusive. We were forced out of our own changing room, placed in inadequate facilities, threatened with disciplinary action and made to fear for our jobs and professional careers.
“Vulnerable colleagues were put under intolerable pressure. International nurses feared losing their visas. Women who had experienced domestic abuse were left distressed and afraid. Four of us were reported to our professional regulator simply for speaking publicly about what was happening.
“Throughout it all, the Trust defended a policy it had been warned was unlawful. Even after the Supreme Court clarified the law, it refused to change course. It took a full tribunal judgment, an apology, damages and an enormous bill before the Trust finally wrote biological reality into its policy.
“We welcome this change because it will protect women across the Trust, but it should never have required a three-year legal battle. No nurse should ever again be treated as we were for asking for dignity, privacy and safety.”

🚨 ΕΚΚΛΗΣΗ ΑΝΘΡΩΠΙΑΣ – ΓΝ ΛΑΡΙΣΑΣ
Ένας άνθρωπος καθηλωμένος στο κρεβάτι, με πρησμένα πόδια και φρικτούς πόνους, ζητά βοήθεια για να καθίσει στο αναπηρικό του αμαξίδιο και να βγει για λίγο στη βεράντα. Να αναπνεύσει καθαρό αέρα, να κινήσει τα πόδια του, να νιώσει για λίγο άνθρωπος και όχι κρατούμενος στην ακινησία του.
Όπως ο ίδιος περιγράφει, αναζήτησε βοήθεια ακόμη και επί πληρωμή, αλλά δεν βρέθηκε κάποιος να ανταποκριθεί. Αναφέρει επίσης ότι, ως φιλοξενούμενος στο ΓΝΛ και όχι ως νοσηλευόμενος, δεν έχει την απαραίτητη μέριμνα.
Είναι δυνατόν ένας άνθρωπος να ζητά απλώς λίγη βοήθεια και να νιώθει τόσο μόνος;
Χρειάζεται άμεσα ανθρώπους που μπορούν να βοηθήσουν με ασφάλεια και να κινητοποιηθούν οι αρμόδιοι για τη φροντίδα που χρειάζεται.
🙏 Αν κάποιος βρίσκεται στη Λάρισα και μπορεί να συνδράμει, ας επικοινωνήσει μαζί του μέσω της αρχικής ανάρτησης.
📢 Κοινοποιήστε για να φτάσει η έκκλησή του εκεί που πρέπει. Γιατί η αξιοπρέπεια, η φροντίδα και η ανθρώπινη παρουσία δεν πρέπει να είναι πολυτέλεια.

Σας παρακαλώ πάρα πολύ κάντε αναδημοσίευση πρέπει να ακουστεί
Κύριε @AdonisGeorgiadi πρέπει να κάνετε κάτι άμεσα
It is a colossal tragedy for a country to be killing off its youth like that. God does NOT want this.
Two women on death row in Iran have recorded audio messages from their prison cells and asked the free world to save their lives. Now I bring their voices to you.
Najmeh Amini is 23. An accounting student. Her crime? A post on social media. The regime calls it insulting the prophet. For one post, they will hang her.
Mahboubeh Shabani is 33. During the protests, she carried wounded demonstrators to the hospital. Her crime? Saving lives. The regime calls it waging war against God. For saving lives, they will hang her.
Let me be honest. Hashtags and tweets alone will not stop these executions. This regime only understands pressure.
So I call on American, European, and world leaders: make these executions your red line. Tie every sanction, every deal, every negotiation to the lives of political prisoners. Demand their release now. Impose real costs for every hanging.
Najmeh Amini and Mahboubeh Shabani must not die for the crime of freedom.
Act now. Before it is too late.

He climbed the Himalayas. Now the Islamic Republic wants hang him in Iran for protesting.
Ali-Sina Mostafavi, an Iranian mountaineer, has been moved to solitary confinement. His family was called for a final goodbye.
World media, athletes: BREAK THE SILENCE. Save his life.

Poznajcie niezwykle odważną @ThaisEscufon z Francji 🇫🇷
W 2021 roku padła ona ofiarą napaści seksualnej ze strony migranta z Tunezji, którego nie spotkała żadna kara. Miała wówczas 21 lat. Podczas telewizyjnej debaty o przemocy wobec kobiet, Thaïs powiedziała, że "głównym zagrożeniem dla kobiet są mężczyźni-imigranci – Afrykanie, czarni i Arabowie." W czerwcu 2026 roku francuski sąd skazał ją za te słowa na 1000 euro grzywny a prokurator domagał się nawet roku więzienia za "podżeganie do nienawiści rasowej". To jest chore.
Jej historia pokazuje czym stała się dzisiejsza Francja.
Dziś Thaïs jest głosem wielu tysięcy francuskich kobiet, które sprzeciwiają się masowej migracji niszczącej ich kraj. A oto jej wczorajszy apel po tym jak we Francji imigrancka młodzież i lewicowe środowiska wywołały w miastach zamieszki, paląc szkoły i ulice oraz atakując nauczycieli i funkcjonariuszy 👇
"Drodzy przyjaciele z Ameryki i Europy,
Bardzo mi wstyd, ale musicie zobaczyć, czym stała się Francja.
Nie popełnijcie tych samych błędów, co my.
Jedynym pokojowym rozwiązaniem jest odesłanie ich z powrotem do krajów pochodzenia, które tak bardzo kochają.
Nie możemy ze sobą współistnieć. Albo oni, albo my."
Nigdy nie możemy doprowadzić do takiej sytuacji w Polsce! Musimy uczyć się na błędach innych i być mądrzy przed szkodą. Tu chodzi o bezpieczeństwo nasze i naszych rodzin.
Dlatego musimy skończyć z polityką ściągania tu setek tysięcy imigrantów! Zero imigracji z państw muzułmańskich i krajów trzeciego świata, zakaz wjazdu dla przybyszów, którzy popełnili wcześniej choćby jedno przestępstwo i bezwzględna deportacja dla każdego, kto złamie nasze prawo. Tu jest Polska, tu ma być bezpiecznie jak nigdzie indziej w Europie! 🇵🇱

It's done, they killed him this morning. 😭😭😭
25-year-old Iranian protester Alireza Sepahi faces execution by hanging for the second time.
His first execution was halted only because he suffered a heart stroke on the gallows while his cousin was being executed in front of his eyes. Now, after treatment, regime authorities have sent him back for execution planned for tomorrow morning.
