I don’t know quite what such people are expected to do. On the one hand we feel great societal opprobrium over the sexual abuse of children. Yet our society simultaneously has an attitude of near-sanctification towards anyone who can claim to be an asylum seeker. They too must be regarded as victims who are so deserving of our sympathies that the rest of us should pay for them to be put up in hotels until such a time as their asylum claims can be adjudged. Or until the Home Office system loses sight of them. Whichever happens first. So there are competing values at play.

The citizenry of Epping just suffered from this values show-down and decided that they were in favour of their daughters not being molested on the high street more than they were in favour of hosting illegal migrants. Some even held signs saying things like ‘Send them home!’ and chanted ‘Protect our kids’. But no sooner had these locals turned out to protest than a number of ‘anti-racism’ groups turned up to protest them. These always-available activists materialised with their ready-made signs that said things like ‘Refugees welcome’ and ‘Stop the far right’.

It cannot be the case that men and women who object to foreign alleged sex offenders being put up in their hotels at the taxpayer’s expense should be deemed ‘anti-immigrant’. Nor can it be that parents who object to our porous borders letting in people who wait barely a week before they apparently start assaulting the locals should all be deemed ‘far right’. But that is where we are.

Hm. I guess a siren could be a mermaid. That'd probably wor- Oh. The sirens of a certain nuclear bird. That's quite a bit of radioactivity.

It's Okuu! She's cute, and very dangerous. While she's quite birdbrained about most things, she could easily explain to you in perfect detail the mechanics of how the nuclear reactor underground works. A very strange girl in that respect. At the least her bird brain makes her very easy to get along with, if a bit hard to understand. She'd gladly be friends with anyone so long as they mean no harm to Satori or Koishi.

Gingers aren't exactly discriminated against like Jewish, but she's entitled to her opinion - and it's long past time that Israel acknowledged that while being Jewish may be a protected characteristic, it's in no way superior to any other protected characterstic/religion/ethnic group.

Religion should never be a protected "characteristic" since all religions are man-made and religion is a lifestyle choice and not an innate trait.

A mind reader she may be, she still has her own insecurities too. Reading minds makes her all the more aware of how people view her. One of the despised youkai being so small and frail. Even though nobody would voice such thoughts, they still linger out there. She's cute regardless but such thoughts would never reach her. Her perceptions of the mind paint her understanding far too much.

🎵 L Y R I C S / L E T R A S 🎵:
You're too far to bring you close
And too high to see below
Just hanging on your daily dose

I know you never needed anyone
But the rolling papers for your grass
How can you give what you don't have?

You keep on aiming for the top
And quit before you sweat a drop
Feed your empty brain with your hydroponic pot

Start out playing with yourself
You get more fun within your shell
Nice to meet you, but I gotta go my way

I'll leave again cause I've been waiting in vain
But you're so in love with yourself
If I say "my heart is sore"
Sounds like a cheap metaphor
So I won't repeat it no more

I'd rather eat my soup with a fork
Or drive a cab in New York
Cause to talk to you is harder work

So what's the point of wasting all my words?
If it's just the same or even worse
Than reading poems to a horse

You keep on aiming for the top
And quit before you sweat a drop
Feed your empty brain with your hydroponic pot

I bet you'll find someone like you
Cause there's a foot for every shoe
And I wish you luck, but I've other things to do

I'll leave again cause I've been waiting in vain
But you're so in love with yourself
If I say "my heart is sore"
Sounds like a cheap metaphor
So I won't repeat it no more

I'll leave again 'cause I've been waiting in vain

If I say "my heart is sore"
Sounds like a cheap metaphor

I'll leave again cause I've been waiting in vain
But you're so in love with yourself
If I say "my heart is sore"
Sounds like a cheap metaphor
So I won't repeat it no more

🇬🇧 I just wanted to express my admiration for Shakira's "Poem to a Horse," a powerful track from her album Laundry Service. This song, released in 2001, showcases her unique blend of rock and soul, with lyrics that delve into themes of addiction and self-absorption. The live version, which was later released as a promotional single in 2004, captures the raw energy of her performances.

🇪🇸 Quería expresar mi admiración por "Poem to a Horse" de Shakira, una poderosa canción de su álbum Laundry Service. Esta canción, lanzada en 2001, muestra su mezcla única de rock y soul, con letras que profundizan en temas de adicción y narcisismo. La versión en vivo, que se lanzó más tarde como un sencillo promocional en 2004, captura la energía cruda de sus actuaciones.

#Milei hat die #Renten der sozial Schwächsten real um rund 20% erhöht.


Gemessen an der Grundnahrungsmittelmenge, die für die Berechnung der Armutsgrenze verwendet wird, stiegen die Renten im Mai 2025 gegenüber November 2023, dem letzten Monat vor Amtsantritt Mileis, angeblich um 25,4 %, nachdem sie bei der Vorgängerregierung zwischen Dezember 2022 und November 2023 um 36,6 % gefallen waren.

Im Vergleich zum gesamten (abgespeckten) Warenkorb, der für die Berechnung der Armutsgrenze verwendet wird, stiegen sie unter Milei um 19,2 %, nachdem sie unter der Vorgängerregierung um 31,8 % gefallen waren.
Libertäre sind eben die wirklich Sozialen.

An den Renten sieht man die Bedeutung makroökonomischer Ordnung und eines konsistenten Finanzprogramms.
Insgesamt stiegen die Renten unter Milei zwischen November 2023 und Mai 2025 real (gegen den gesamten Warenkorb) um 9,5 Prozent und der Haushalt war ausgeglichen.

Zwischen Dezember 2022 und November 2023 sanken unter der Vorgängerregierung die Renten um 30 % und es gab trotzdem ein Haushaltsdefizit von fast 5 % des BIP.

Όχι παιδιά, δεν είναι παιχνιδάκι να στοχεύουμε τον κόσμο με κάμερες και να τον βγάζουμε σε γιγαντοθόνες.

Αλλά να διαλέγουμε τυχαία άτομα χωρίς να ξέρουμε τι γίνεται στη ζωή τους, να τους καρφώνουμε μια κάμερα και να τους δίνουμε ακούσια δημοσιότητα που αναπόφευκτα καταλήγει σε βορά στη νοσηρότητα των μέσων κοινωνικής δικτύωσης όπου η υποκρισία πάει σύννεφο είναι απαράδεκτο.
Κι από τη στιγμή που δεν ξέρουμε τι προβλήματα θα δημιουργήσει η στιγμιαία εστίαση της κάμερας, την κλείνουμε, καρφώνουμε το καπάκι στο φακό για να έχουμε την ησυχία μας και την ξεχνάμε.

🎵 L Y R I C S / L E T R A S 🎵:
Tell me lies
Slap me on the face
Just improvise
Do something really clever
That′ll make me hate your name forever
You might swear
You'd never touch a lady
Well, let me say
You′re not too far from maybe
Every day you find new ways to hurt me

But I can't help it if I'm just a fool
Always having my heart set on you
Till the time you start changing the rules
I′ll keep chasing the soles of your shoes
Fool

God resigned
From hearing my old story
Every night
I′m paying hell for glory
I'm embarrassed
But I′m much more sorry
All this pain
Begins to feel like pleasure
With more tears
You'd make a sea a desert
Salt my wounds
And I′ll keep saying "thank you"

But I can't help it if I′m just a fool
Always having my heart set on you
Till the time you start changing the rules
I'll keep chasing the soles of your shoes
Fool

But I can't help it if I′m just a fool
Always having my heart set on you
Till the time you start changing the rules
I′ll keep chasing the soles of your shoes
Fool

I can't help it, baby
Fool
I can′t help it, baby
Fool
I can't help it, baby
Fool
I can′t help it, baby, baby
Fool
I'm a fool, I′m a fool

🇬🇧 Just wanted to share my thoughts on Shakira's song "Fool" from her iconic album Laundry Service. This pop rock gem showcases her incredible vocal talent and emotional depth. Although it was primarily released in Brazil, where it topped the charts, it deserves more recognition globally.

Note: "Fool" reached number 1 on the Brazilian charts, becoming one of Shakira's biggest hits in that region.

🇪🇸 Quería compartir mis pensamientos sobre la canción "Fool" de Shakira, del icónico álbum Laundry Service. Esta joya del pop rock muestra su increíble talento vocal y profundidad emocional. Aunque se lanzó principalmente en Brasil, donde alcanzó el número uno en las listas, merece más reconocimiento a nivel mundial. El video musical es un deleite visual que complementa perfectamente los temas de amor y desamor de la canción.

Nota: "Fool" alcanzó el número 1 en las listas brasileñas, convirtiéndose en uno de los mayores éxitos de Shakira en esa región.

On Self-Determination and Failed Rhetoric

We are told that #Taiwan is an international flash point and the #USA is honor-bound to defend Tawian against reunification with the mainland because, and I quote: “Taiwan’s 23 million people deserve self-determination”.


  • Why didn’t the 9,103,332 people of the Confederate States of America deserve self-determination?
  • Why don’t the 4,543,126 people of Palestine deserve self-determination?
  • Why didn’t the 10.3 million people of the separatist oblasts of Ukraine deserve self-determination?
  • Why don’t the 8,012,231 people of Catalunya deserve self-determination?

#Self-determination is just another #Enlightenment #inversion. It means that #ClownWorld will claim it is a casus belli whenever it wants a #war, and use military force to deny whenever it fears losing control. Unless the USA is going to go to war with #Israel, #Ukraine, and #Spain, and permit the former-Confederate states to depart the #Union in #peace, it has absolutely no business claiming any right or responsibility to “defend” one part of #China from the rest of it.
