The world energy shock is coming — it will deepen inequality in ways we've seen before. Our new @newstatesman piece argues that without urgent government action, the Strait of Hormuz crisis will ripple through our economies and rip apart our societies. Here's why. 1/
2/ One fifth of global LNG, 1/3 of crude oil, 1/3 of fertilisers, 2/5 of helium, nearly half of sulphur—all normally pass through the Strait of Hormuz. Since the US and Israel's attack on Iran, that flow has effectively stopped. The shock is here. The shockwaves are on their way.
3/ This is not just a commodity price story. Years of research with my collaborators showed that cost shocks don't just pass through markets neutrally—they give dominant corporations cover to hike prices, protect margins, and *increase* profits. We called this sellers' inflation.
Christmas Eve, 2024: A nuclear energy expert gets an unexpected phone call. It’s Peter Thiel.
The billionaire was vetting staff to work in the incoming Trump administration on nuclear energy issues. And he wanted to talk about rapid deregulation and massive nuclear buildout 🧵
Trump is upending the way nuclear energy is regulated.
Silicon Valley & the energy demands of AI are at the center of it. Inexperienced DOGE operatives are bringing a ‘move-fast-&-break-things' ethos to safety.
Last May, Trump released executive orders demanding a re-write of nuclear safety rules & a massive buildout of nuclear power. The admin let Silicon Valley-backed nuclear energy firms offer redline edits. When Trump signed them in the oval office, he was flanked by nuclear CEOs

У писателя Бунина при живой жене в доме появилась молодая девушка Галя - формально "секретарша." фактически третья в их семейной жизни. Жена страдала, но смирилась: зависела от мужа и любила его.Так и жили втроем.
Потом Бунин приютил бедного поэта-маляра Зурова. Тот оказался
психически нестабильным: язвил, устраивал сцены, гонялся за хозяином с бритвой, портил сад. В доме воцарился настоящий хаос, но уже жили вчетвером.
Бунин захотел вернуть прежнюю спокойную жизнь вдвоём, но жена сказала, что поздно выгонять людей - они за них в ответе. В итоге
девушка Галя сбежала с подругой Марго в Америку, причинив Бунину душевные страдания, а маляр остался и влюбился в Веру Николаевну. жену Бунина. Так "Свободные отношения", начатые Буниным, обернулись странной коммунальной жизой и свобода коснулась уже его самого.
Petrodollars! Nothing produces more heated discussion and, in my experience, less insight. Myths trump facts, because the actual data is a bit obscure --
But here is the most important thing to know. Before the Hormuz crisis, the flow of petrodollars had more or less dried up
1/many
At $60-70 a barrel, the oil exporters just weren't generating large surpluses --
Saudi Arabia's external deficit offset Russia's surplus, so the two biggest oil exporters (~ 15mbd of exports together) were not generating petrodollars, petroeuros or petroyuan
2/
And the GCC countries (no quarterly data for the Emirates, but its surplus is roughly the size of Qatar and Kuwait combined) no longer really stash away their oil surplus in liquid dollar reserves --
Beauty gets attention, but character decides peace. A good woman stays respectful when emotions rise. She treats strangers well when nobody is watching.
Her values do not change with the room. You can trust a woman whose behavior stays clean in small moments.
Small moments always become big patterns later. Character is what makes love safe.
2. Look for kindness
Kindness is not weakness, it is emotional maturity. A kind woman knows how to speak without making you feel small.
She can disagree without turning cruel. She does not enjoy humiliating people for fun. Kindness makes a home feel lighter.
Light homes survive hard seasons better. A warm heart is rare and valuable.
German researchers treated 15 severe lupus patients with CAR-T therapy.
All 15 went into complete remission.
Many stopped ALL medication.
Now a larger trial just confirmed it — across 3 autoimmune diseases.
This might be the biggest shift in autoimmune medicine in decades. 🧵
Lupus is a disease where your immune system loses its mind.
It stops recognising your own body.
And starts attacking it.
Kidneys. Heart. Joints. Skin. Brain.
5 million people worldwide live with it.
No cure exists.
Most patients are on immunosuppressants for LIFE — just to stop their body destroying itself.
Until now, the best medicine could do was slow it down.
WHAT DID THEY DO (CASTLE Trial focus)
Researchers engineered immune cells in a lab — called CAR-T cells — to hunt down and destroy the specific B-cells driving autoimmune disease.
This is the CASTLE trial.

12 Ways to Reduce Facial Fat and Get a Defined Jawline
- thread -
Before you start Why does fat accumulate on the face?
The face does not gain weight in isolation. You gain weight when your body gains weight. But there are two factors that make the face look puffier regardless of weight: fluid retention and chronic inflammation.
You can be at a normal weight and have a swollen face for these two reasons. That completely changes the focus.
Palestinian Islamic Jihad recently published the names of an additional 85 commanders killed during the Gaza war. This thread will cover the second half of the list (see next tweet for the first), which includes commanders in media, medical, and police roles. Details below: 🧵
Hassan Abdulfattah Farajallah Farajallah (ID#: 800183485, age 39), an executive at the PIJ-affiliated al-Quds Today TV as well as a news presenter, was the commander of PIJ’s Mobilization Unit in the Northern Brigade. He was also, according to his Facebook page and other social media posts, a human development coach and educator at multiple Gazan schools.
Farajallah was killed in a December 2023 airstrike, and is listed by the IFJ and Hamas-run Government Media Office, though not the Committee to Protect Journalists, as a journalist killed during the war.
Super weird and interesting how Tucker Carlson, his guest Professor Jiang, Alex Jones, Aleksandr Dugin, Tim Pool, et al., are currently saying almost exactly the same thing Klaus Schwab was saying back in 2017 at the World Economic Forum: the "multipolar world" garbage.

Ojo a este 🧵 sobre la encuesta que publicó hoy la revista Cambio.
Partamos de una premisa: no le creo al CNC por varias razones. Además de ser la encuestadora que menos atina, es la que más se ha beneficiado con contratos del gobierno Petro.
Pero ajá… Hagamos el ejercicio👇🏼
Supongamos que la encuesta dice la verdad a ver qué podría leerse de ese resultado.
Lo primero es que se advierte que en relación con Cepeda hay un estancamiento.

Thread on the role of Western government's in the closure of the Internet. Germany's 2017 NetzDG act, which forced large platforms to hire thousands of moderators or potentially face huge fines for hosting illegal content even outside of Germany, was the first major law.
This German law served as the template for similar laws in other authoritarian despotisms, such as Russia, Belarus, Venezuela, Vietnam, the United Kingdom, and India.
The EU has also exercised informal pressure, imposing a "Code of conduct on countering illegal hate speech online" on YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, and Microsoft in 2016.
A detailed analysis of a recent report by the World Cricketers' Association shows the Pakistan Super League outperforms the Indian Premier League across key areas including player rights, contract fairness, dispute resolution, revenue share, and player representation.
On paper, IPL ranks higher overall.
But that’s largely because of ONE factor: salaries, which carry the biggest weight (45%) in the rating system.
IPL average weekly salary: $59,000
PSL average weekly salary: $16,500
This gap alone creates a 30+ point difference in rankings.
Interestingly, PSL minimum salaries are proportionally higher than IPL, pointing to a more balanced pay structure across squads.
At the minimum level, PSL players earn approximately $3,868 per week, or 36.8% of the global benchmark, compared with $2,300 in the IPL,
I'm baffled by our media, not fit for purpose. They are still trying to spin this Trump/Netanyahu shit show, and normalize it, by pretending that their goals are somehow achievable. Probably to bolster the financial markets.
1/5
How are these propagandists, going to spin it in a few months time, when Trump/Netanyahu, have achieved nothing, and the world is plunged into chaos? They should have been holding these 2 lunatics to account, to pressure them into ceasing and desisting.
2/5
An even bigger enemy to humankind than lunatics like Trump/Netanyahu, is the media, who stopped reporting the news ages ago, and at the behest of their oligarch owners, turned into propagandists, gaslighting the public.
