Is pedophilia only a bad thing in one direction? In society I mean. Because I actually know a guy who became a dad at 15 to a 20 year old woman.

Which is kinda crazy but you never hear anyone talk about that. It’s always like 50 year old men fucking 5 year olds.
He described it as there would have been trouble if the ages were flipped.

What is it just because “oh horny teenage boys probably want to fuck anyways”.

Annoying #Liberals.

I know Liberals mean well when they say to me, "G33k, you and I want the same thing. A fair and equal #society." But I do get annoyed by that. Quite a bit.

Because I am for a #fair and #equitable society. Hence why I am an #AnarchoSyndicalist and a #AnarchoCommunist. And a fair and equitable society is one without #Capitalism. Which Liberals are not on board with because they still want to be a "small #business owner."

According to The Sunday Times' 2025 rankings, Saffron Walden in Essex is currently the best place to live in England[^1]. This historic market town of around 16,000 people combines rural charm with excellent amenities, including a bustling high street, top-rated schools, and convenient access to Cambridge just 15 miles away[^2].

The town has transformed from its former reputation of being "old-fashioned and stuffy" into a vibrant community with fresh ideas, independent shops, and an emerging food scene "defying the Essex stereotypes"[^1]. Local resident India Burrett describes summers there as "like being in the south of France with everyone milling around"[^2].

While housing costs average £607,100, the town offers strong transport links to London (43 miles away) and a rich heritage dating back to 1141 when its market first began trading[^2]. The area features extensive green spaces and maintains a strong sense of community, with resident Henry Rowe noting that despite having lived in Perth, Australia, he "will always return to Saffron Walden"[^2].

When it pays to use a brand's app to place your order...
Felt like some Denny's today for a late breakfast (I've been up since before 4am).

Stopped off at Denny's to pick up a Super Slam to take home.

They wanted to charge me $15 for the meal. (No drinks.)

Said no thanks.

Went back to my truck. Pulled up the Denny's App. Placed my order "online". It cost just over $12.00 with tax + 20% tip. ($9.99 + tax + tip).

Picked it up a few minutes later from the same lady that tried to rip me off.

Speaking from Rio de Janeiro after the BRICS summit, Vieira explains President Luiz Inacio Lula da Silva’s call for a global trade currency, critiques the current state of the United Nations, and explains what Brazil envisions for a more balanced multipolar world. With absent leaders, rising tensions, and growing ambitions, is BRICS reshaping global power, or just talking about it?

"I have never seen the UN so insignificant"

Brazilian President Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva delivered a speech at the annual meeting of the New Development Bank (Banco do Brics) on July 4, 2025, where he criticized the United Nations (UN) as "insignificant" for its inability to prevent what he described as a "genocide" in Gaza and its failure to create a Palestinian state.

The speaker of the house and Zionist-first Mike Johnson will probably kill this. It would be nice to see if the democrats would vote this through if they gain the house in 2026. My guess, they would not. Epstein had "friends" on both sides of the aisle.

Dual carbon sequestration with photosynthetic living materials
ETH Zurich researchers have developed a groundbreaking "living material" that actively captures carbon dioxide from the atmosphere through two mechanisms: biomass production and mineral formation[^1][^2].

The material combines cyanobacteria (photosynthetic bacteria) embedded within a printable hydrogel matrix. The cyanobacteria convert CO2 into biomass through photosynthesis while simultaneously triggering the formation of solid carbonate minerals - a process called microbially induced carbonate precipitation (MICP)[^1].

Key achievements of the material include:

  • Sequestered 2.2 mg of CO2 per gram of hydrogel over 30 days
  • Captured 26 mg of CO2 per gram over 400 days in mineral form
  • Maintained viability for over one year
  • Required only sunlight and artificial seawater to function
  • Can be 3D printed into various structures[^1]

The research team demonstrated practical applications by creating:

  • A 3-meter high tree-trunk structure at the Venice Architecture Biennale that can bind 18kg of CO2 annually
  • Building facade coatings that could capture carbon throughout a building's lifecycle
  • Lattice structures that passively transport nutrients through capillary action[^2]

"As a building material, it could help to store CO2 directly in buildings in the future," said Mark Tibbitt, Professor of Macromolecular Engineering at ETH Zurich[^2].

The material represents a low-maintenance, environmentally friendly approach to carbon capture that operates at ambient conditions using atmospheric CO2, contrasting with industrial methods requiring concentrated CO2 sources and controlled conditions[^1].

A building material that lives and stores carbon

Researchers are developing a living material that actively extracts carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Photosynthetic cyanobacteria grow inside it, forming biomass and solid minerals and thus binding CO2 in two different manners.

Resistance in Gaza: Command Post Struck, Tanks Destroyed


At least five Zionist soldiers were wounded in three separate incidents in the Gaza Strip, occupation newspaper Yedioth Ahronoth reported on Saturday. A “security incident” in Khan Younis, in the southern Gaza Strip, also prompted an emergency aerial evacuation of wounded personnel.

The Palestinian Resistance launched a series of coordinated attacks against Zionist occupation forces across the Gaza Strip, delivering yet another blow to the military amid the ongoing genocidal war.

Al-Qassam targets C2 position, snipes soldier


Al-Qassam Brigades, the military wing of Hamas, announced that its fighters targeted a Zionist command-and-control post east of al-Tuffah neighborhood in Gaza City with heavy mortar fire. In a separate operation in Abasan al-Kabira, east of Khan Younis, a Resistance sniper struck a Zionist soldier with a fatal shot.

Al-Quds Brigades targets forces across Gaza

Simultaneously, al-Quds Brigades—the military wing of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ)—confirmed multiple successful operations targeting armored vehicles. The group detonated a pre-planted anti-tank explosive device east of al-Tuffah, destroying a Merkava tank during its incursion.

Another explosive device was used to destroy a tank east of al-Zaytoun neighborhood. Fighters returning from the operation reported direct hits and confirmed the tank was neutralized.

Earlier in the day, al-Quds Brigades said its fighters struck a military vehicle along the Kissufim supply route northeast of Khan Younis using a pre-planted improvised explosive device (IED). Additionally, a barrel-shaped explosive device destroyed another military vehicle in the Sheikh Nasser area east of Khan Younis.

Occupation troops were also targeted with mortar fire on Jabal al-Sawrani, east of al-Tuffah, where occupation forces have been massing in recent days.

Investigating intentionality in elephant gestural communication
A groundbreaking study published in July 2025 demonstrates that African savannah elephants use intentional gestures to communicate their goals, similar to great apes[^1]. The research team presented semi-captive elephants with desired and undesired items, recording their communication attempts when experimenters met, partially met, or failed to meet their goals[^1].

The study identified 38 different gesture types that elephants used almost exclusively when a visually attentive experimenter was present[^1]. The elephants showed three key criteria for intentional communication:

  1. Audience directedness - signaling only when someone was watching
  2. Persistence - continuing to gesture when goals were partially met
  3. Elaboration - using new signals when communication failed

The research was conducted at the Jafuta Reserve in Zimbabwe, where elephants combined specific vocalizations with gestures in greeting behaviors[^6]. They used different types of signals including:

  • Silent-visual gestures
  • Audible gestures
  • Tactile gestures
  • Rumble vocalizations

The findings reveal that elephants, like apes, assess the communicative effectiveness of their gesturing and adjust their signals based on the audience's visual attention[^6]. This expands understanding of intentional communication beyond the primate lineage[^9].

Kenyan Communist Revolutionary, Julia Njoki, Murdered in Police Custody


Communist revolutionay Julia Njoki was murdered by police in a cell in the Nanyuki police station, a city in central Kenya. Julia Njoki was kept in detention because she was unable to pay the deposit of 50,000 shillings decided by a Kenyan court. She died following multiple head injuries.

Her death comes in the context of a huge uprising against the right wing government.

The death toll from the uprising in Kenya has surged to over 30 people,with at least 107 others wounded during the nationwide marches.

The marches saw clashes erupt between protesters and police in the capital, Nairobi, as well as the city of Eldoret, with the KNCHR accusing the police of cooperating with armed gangs, who were armed with machetes and spears, in the wake of the violence.

There was widespread destruction of property in the uprising as the privatization of the country drives poverty and resistance.

Hospital sources told Al Jazeera that Israeli attacks across Gaza have killed at least 85 people since dawn, including 46 in Gaza City alone.

Meanwhile, Al-Shifa Hospital Director Muhammad Abu Salmiya warned that Gaza’s hospitals could shut down by tomorrow without fuel. He accused the Israeli army of restricting fuel deliveries “up to the point of death,” saying medical teams are stretched thin and supplies are running critically low.
