This is a reminder that more than 95% of the plastic in the world’s seas and oceans comes from ten rivers in Africa and Asia. “Environmentalists” say nothing about this because “environmentalism” isn’t about the environment, in case you hadn’t noticed.
A robot is cleaning rivers completely autonomously. 🌊 Meet Hebao H3, an autonomous surface-cleaning boat developed by Dongfang Water. Using onboard AI vision and GPS, it can detect and collect floating waste such as plastic bags, bottles and leaves while avoiding obstacles. When its collection bin is full, the H3 can automatically return to its base. Would you trust robots to keep our rivers clean? 👀 ⚠️ This content is shared for informational purposes only.

Great point. And don't forget olives, fish sauce, garum, fermented hot sauce, cultured butter, creme fraiche, doenjang, gochujang, sourdough and even fermented dosa batter.
Meat, eggs and ferments were superfoods before superfoods were cool. Not just sauerkraut. Kimchi, kefir, Greek yogurt, natto, miso, tempeh, sour cream, pickles too. Ferments can help ease glyphosate and heavy metal exposure and help evacuate microplastics. They can also improve gut health, systemic inflammation, digestion and immune function.

The only people who will “learn a lesson” are the ones who stay home in the midterms. Senate GOP leadership is happy to lose. They want to lose. House is somewhat better and wants to win but many don’t care. Go vote!

America is falling because we welcomed people from impoverished and dysfunctional countries, they got a better life, and then they hate us for it and want some bizarre ethnic revenge. What a tragic way to lose your home. By being kind. Something has to be done.

Most days I ask myself, why don’t you walk away from it all and eat protein bars. If we were in the 1990’s, I would. The debate then was not existential. Now it is. The Bolsheviks are returning, with the demons leading them. No one has the luxury of sitting this era out.

One of the most common calls I get from the ER are for dog attacks - 99% pit bulls. Mostly these are family pits who all the sudden just snap. I've seen kids with chewed out eyeballs and scalped faces. One time there was a kid who got bit in the face - one cheek with a perfect childhood dimple, the other cheek nothing but blood and gore. Very rare to see kids after suffering a prolonged attack since they're dead at the scene. But adults often survive prolonged attacks. There was one lady - middle aged, relatively large - who agreed to watch a friend's pit bull. She got attacked in her garage. She showed up with both arms and one leg partially amputated, nearly all the skin of her anterior chest and abdomen was ripped from the underlying fascial layers. This is all to say that every time I go to the park with my kid, I carry a Glock 19 - partially for protection against societal dregs/third-worlders but more so for protection against their dogs.
Jon Bernthal says fear of pit bulls is “dog racısm.”

Earlier this week in France I encountered these charming NGO workers who were actively colluding with the people smugglers. These open borders fanatics are part of the problem The only solution is the Conservative plan to leave the ECHR so illegal immigrants can be immediately deported. Then they wouldn’t bother crossing in the first place

VIDEO | "One Jewish life is worth ten million ... Because God chose us. You are jealous." An Israeli settler lawyer who represents settlers accused of attacking Palestinians told the BBC that Israel should "kill everyone" in the villages of Tel in retaliation for the killing of a single Israeli. "One Jewish life is worth ten million," said Yehuda Shimon, a resident of the illegal Havat Gilad settlement. When asked whether his remarks were racist, he replied: "Yes, I know. But this is the truth. Because God chose us. You are jealous."

In a war, we know how this would go. We don't need to guess. It would be 100 to 1 kill ratios. The primitives rely on state power to commit their crimes and are helpless without it. Yet they gloat and continue to threaten. Deport them all.

Anyone telling you that you can’t “vote your way out” of this is a demoralization agent and should be dismissed outright.

'What do you think a parasite is thinking when he's sucking on the belly of a whale or the back of a shark — "Where did this big stupid brute get all that blood, not being a parasite like me? How come he's so strong and free, not knowing how to live like I do?" So with human parasites feeding on their juicy national, personal, political, racial hopes. The principles that built our very rocking chair "rest your head," that renaissance straight-line, that linear, rational, yet sentimental care that keeps the heart set on conserving rather than destroying, are what anarchists, who are thieves of the mind, want, just as thieves, who are anarchists of the mind, want the rocking chair.' — Last writing of Jack Kerouac, Oct. 1969

Communists are putting the nation in the prisoner’s dilemma. In this dilemma, the victory ALWAYS goes to the aggressor. The one who breaks the norms by crossing the line first. So in the current construct, they will win. There is a revolution unfolding in the country right now. Communism spreads like WILDFIRE when unchecked. You can’t vote your way out of it once you vote it in. It takes full advantage of our tolerance and constitution until it kills us with both. The only way to win the prisoner’s dilemma is to counterattack. Few are going to be comfortable with what that might look like. (Think Spanish Civil War). We objectively KNOW what happens when this goes unchecked. 100+ million dead are the proof. The question is, what are we willing to do to stop what we know is coming?

The story of how my half brother, and his mother, were both brutally slaughtered in Rhodesia by black terrorists. Following the discovery of their bodies, my father tracked down those responsible and committed a massacre. I was born many years later, and named after my brother.
