The El Dorado Report 2026: how much revenue independent hospitality operators are already generating but losing, every day, because they cannot see where the leak is.
Spoiler: it's a lot. 2-8% of annual revenue, depending on market.
The headline: across Europe's five biggest tourism markets, independent operators are sitting on a recoverable revenue wedge of €6.5B to €26.1B.
Not new demand. Demand that already arrived but converted at lower rates than it should have. Image
For Spain alone, on the base case (5%): €6.3B.
That's not the whole tourism market. That's the share of independent operator revenue plausibly improved through better response time, language coverage, and unread-data analysis.
The data already arrived. Most of it never gets read

My debut in @washingtonpost

Vladimir Putin’s ambitions are dying in Africa

African governments have seen what Russian reliability looks like. Moscow abandoned Syria’s Bashar al-Assad the moment rebel forces reached Damascus in December 2024, accepting his exile over any serious effort to sustain him. It is now doing the same in Mali. No government on the continent weighing its options can miss the pattern. The U.S. should seek to make that reversal permanent — knowing, as ever, that a Sahel in free fall won’t be contained.

washingtonpost.com/opinions/2026/…
As NATO concentrated on its eastern flank in the early 2020s, the Kremlin built a parallel pressure system along Europe’s southern perimeter, running from Libya through Mali, Burkina Faso and Niger. By August 2024, close to 2,000 Russian personnel operated across Libyan military sites; Sudan had offered Moscow a 25-year Red Sea naval base; and the juntas of the Sahel’s three coup states had cast Russia as their sole security guarantor.

Iran-Russia cooperation in Sahel

Moscow presented this as liberation from Western dominance, while creating a corridor for migration and weapons transfers to put even more pressure on NATO’s southern flank. By granting Niger’s junta the political cover to sever ties with the West, Moscow also cleared the path for a $56 million deal in which Tehran acquired 300 tons of yellowcake uranium from Niamey in exchange for drones and missiles.

Europe's professional class faces four converging forces reshaping work over the next decade. Most people see one of them. Almost nobody sees all four together. Image
Force one: industrial relocation. Energy costs and geopolitics are pulling production out of Germany, Italy, France. Mid-tier manufacturing engineering is the layer that gets thinned.
Force two: the AI capacity gap. US AI investment in 2024 was $109B. The EU's was €8B. China's was $9.3B and growing fast. The compounding has begun.

I've spent the past few weeks reading 100s of public data sources about AI development. I now believe that recursive self-improvement has a 60% chance of happening by the end of 2028. In other words, AI systems might soon be capable of building themselves.
Major essay in Import AI 455, just published online. Image
A lot of the conclusion comes from assembling a mosaic out of many distinct data sources. Some examples - progress on CORE-Bench, where the task is implementing other research papers (huge amounts of AI research comes from interpreting and replicating results) Image

Anyone who is against peptide use, read this.

Jeremy Renner was run over by a 14,300-pound snowplough while trying to prevent it from hitting his nephew.

He was airlifted to the hospital, had more than 30 broken bones and his entire body was pretty much broken.

Yet he has achieved a remarkable recovery, partly thanks to peptides.

Here's the Avengers' peptide stack (based on his interviews).

Thread🧵Image

It’s George.

Peptides can legitimately help with almost every goal people chase today:
-Extreme fat loss
-Improved memory recall, mood, mental clarity, focus etc
-Healing gut issues
-Healing common gym injuries
-Restoring libido and sexual function
-Rebuilding a broken immune system
-Slowing biological aging

And many more…

BUT, peptides are also one of the deepest, most confusing rabbit holes in modern health and performance.Image
So take 10 minutes to read this before you buy a single vial.

First, the non-negotiable disclaimers:
1. Nothing here is medical advice.
2. Target the root cause of your issues as well.
Peptides are amplifiers, not magic wands.
3. Scams are everywhere in 2025.
4. Talk to an actual doctor.
5. Stacking 5–10 peptides with no bloodwork is playing Russian roulette with expensive water.

Different peptides need different environments (PHs etc), have different half-lives and act on different receptors/sites.

General idiot’s rules of thumb:
-You don’t need more than 3 peptides at a time, most likely unless you are almost dying.
-If the liquid in your syringe turns cloudy once you mix your peptides, they are ruined.
-Cerebrolysin and GHK-CU should not be paired with anything.
-Do not stack BPC-157 or TB-500 with anything related to GH.
-Space injections at least 30 minutes apart.

Jeremy Renner himself has stated that he takes 3 months off peptides and does 2-3 months on.Image

Heart attacks don't happen suddenly.

They take 20 years to build.

Here are the 5 habits that prevent them. 🧵 Image
Heart disease is a slow, silent process.

It starts in your 20s and 30s with arterial inflammation.

Plaque builds gradually over decades.

By the time symptoms appear, your arteries are 70-90% blocked.

For many people, the first symptom is the heart attack itself.
Here's the timeline Image

NEW from me

Adam Hamawy (@HamawyForNJ) the Democratic candidate leading in the race to replace retiring Rep. Bonnie Watson Coleman served as a defense witness in the 1995 trial of terrorist mastermind Omar Abdel-Rahman (AKA "The Blind Sheikh")

freebeacon.com/democrats/new-…
Adam Hamawy (@HamawyForNJ) running to represent New Jersey's 12th district had a yearslong relationship with the The Blind Sheikh who was sentenced to life in prison after his followers carried out the 1993 World Trade Center bombing

Trial testimony is all online — start on page 1576

When @HamawyForNJ served as a defense witness for The Blind Sheikh terrorist — he revealed he frequently went to the Sheikh's home to hear him speak and provided translation services

When they traveled to a conference in Detroit together — Hamawy and Sheikh Rahman stayed in the same room at the Westin

Eleven women sat together talking about their husbands. Each one describing what kind of man he was.

Some were good. Some were not so good. And Aisha (RA) heard the whole thing.

So one day, she told the Prophet ﷺ the entire story.
Now, this wasn't a short story.
It was long.
Detailed.

Each woman had her own description. Her own complaints. Her own praises.

And the Prophet ﷺ?

He was the leader of the Muslim ummah.
He had a community to guide.
Revelations coming down.
Battles to plan.
People needing him.
But when Aisha (RA) started telling him this story…

He sat
And listened.

Not half-listening.
Not checking if someone needed him.
Not cutting her off with "Get to the point."

He gave her his full attention.

When Will Canadians Tell The Prime Minister: TIMES UP!

It's been over a year since Prime Minister Carney's election & at what point do Canadians question his promise of: Build Bigger & FASTER than ever before

When will Canada become the Energy Superpower he told us?

2/
Look, I get it, things take a bit of time

But so far it's:

- MOUs
- Open Agencies & Crown Corps
- Start some things already approved

Where is the New Oil Pipeline to the North Coast of BC?

Where are the NEW Mines?

Where are NEW Natural Gas Liquification Plants?

3/
We're not even asking for Construction to start

Just where are the Signed AGREEMENTS

Because that's not even hard

Organize the Meetings
Attend the Meetings
If First Nations refuse OVERRIDE them

That's actually how FASTER works

Decisive, Aggressive Actions

Lies from @FiLiA_charity

1. No one has been in touch with @LightninLex who was definitely “affected” since she was thrown out of the building. Even though she had not been in the building until the time she had a drink thrown at her. No one told her not to come back the next day. No one told me not to come back the next day. We just didn’t go back because we refused to spend our time around anti-Semites when our Jewish friends had already left for home and some in tears.

2. The *only* statement made DID mention an individual woman by name. That woman was Lucy Masoud and before any investigation as to circumstance took place. This left any other woman banned bearing suspicion for … something unnamed and during an incident unspecified.

3. The matter was in the “hands of police” because I put it there and mine was the first report, thus it took precedence in order of investigating. No CCTV was available though it was requested from Filia by the investigating officer and so the police could not proceed with my report of assault by Lucy Masoud - unfortunately because I really, really wanted the film of that.

At the time @GappyTales (inner Socfem/Filia clique but not a member of Filia management or in attendance at the conference this time) told people CCTV was passed to the police. This was a lie. No CCTV was passed to police.

These women are liars. They have smeared the reputations of a number of women without ever naming any specific woman. This is vile.

They did make sure to pedestal and protect one woman, Lucy Masoud, as above any blame. Before they took reports from others. Lucy Masoud who led chants of “from the river to the sea” wearing a terrorist t shirt outside their event.

Other women have been hung out to dry - neither named nor cleared of blame.Image

A past volunteer for @FiLiA_charity security, and a woman with whom I have never exchanged a cross word, has said that she knew IN ADVANCE that I had a party ticket and was “warned” for her “safety”. I believe this happened to another woman too who was marked out as “scary” in advance. Certain women with “not-permitted” views were marked out, targeted by Filia and gossiped about privately, before ever setting foot in the building.

These women are disgusting liars and even now refuse to release any information about their own failures.

If you have a ticket for 2027 I suggest you get it refunded now. If this can happen to me and other women prominent in the fight for women’s rights, it could happen to you.

If your face or your politics don’t fit their cliquey little circle - you can have a target pasted in your back and they will try to take you down. Physically in some cases.

Lisa Marie Taylor the CEO presides over a palace of liars surveying the rest of us as shoddy peasants - who if we are beaten and ostracised - deserve it.

No wonder their replies are off.

Yes I’m still furious because dishonesty about and ill-treatment of women will do that.

Feminists my arse. You’re a set of mean girl fuckwits cos-playing “sisterhood”.

Happy May Bank Holiday to everyone else. As you were. ✊🏻Image
@FiLiA_charity Their “report without reporting” report. If you would like to know what might not have happened to women who might not have done anything. Or might. Who knows?

Becoming a “Hybrid Athlete” changed my life forever.

99% of people choose between muscle or endurance…

But you can have both.

Here’s the exact system you can follow to do the same: Image
Hybrid Athletes use strategic training that combines:

• Zone 2 cardio (2x/week)
• Strength work (2-3x/week)
• High-intensity conditioning (1x/week)

Not to be the best at any of them…

But to optimize health, aesthetics, and performance for real life.

Here are 7 reasons you should become one:
1. Your body composition will dramatically improve

Cardio alone makes you skinny-fat.

Lifting alone makes you strong but soft.

Hybrid training gives you:

• Better nutrient partitioning
• More muscle retention during fat loss
• The aesthetics of an athlete, not just a gym rat
