Who knows the story of the Railway Mania in mid-19th century UK?
I didn’t know it, yet it somehow sounds familiar.

2/ The success of the Liverpool and Manchester Railway, the first modern intercity rail line opened in 1830, sparked growing interest in railways.
3/ This sparked the first bull market in railway shares, which would later be dwarfed by the 1840s bull market.
Charts show the number of railways, millions of pounds invested in rail, and the Railway Index price:

Я скажу честно как психолог:
ваша нервная система не выдержит, если вы будете жить в режиме постоянного напряжения.
Вам нужны действия, которые возвращают психике опору, даже когда вокруг хаос.
Вот 6 шагов, которые восстановят вас изнутри:

Вам нужны действия, которые возвращают психике опору, даже когда вокруг хаос.
Вот 6 шагов, которые восстановят вас изнутри:
1. Телесная перезагрузка
Нервная система реагирует быстрее сознания. Короткая «телесная перезагрузка» работает лучше, чем любое «успокойся».
20 секунд встряхивания тела стоя + 10 секунд глубокого выдоха. Это сбрасывает до 40% напряжения — и мозг перестраивает эмоциональный фон.

2. «Поменять картинку»
Мозг успокаивают не логические аргументы, а новая сенсорная информация.
Когда тревога захватывает, не спорьте с мыслями. Посмотрите на что-то яркое, холодное, текстурное – мозг переключается в режим «оценки среды».
Это огибает тревогу, а не борется с ней.

The European Union has triggered Article 122 to indefinitely immobilise the assets of the Russian Central Bank, worth a whopping €210 billion.
I explain what just happened and why this is such a big deal for Europeans.

🧵 Long thread.
In the early days of Russia's war, the EU, in close coordination with G7 allies, agreed to immobilise the assets of the Russian Central Bank.
This was done under traditional EU sanctions, which depend on unanimity. Since then, the sanctions have been renewed every 6 months.

In the months that followed, the EU debated several ways to use those assets and "make Russia pay", as leaders repeatedly said.
In 2024, they decided to capture the windfall profits, estimated at €2.5-3 billion annually, to support Ukraine but without touching the assets.

Alors la DNC, qu’est ce que cé ? C’est une maladie virale dû à un Poxvirus. Pox, dans le jargon médical ça veut dire pustule. Ca fait donc… des pustules. Une sorte de variole quoi. Mais pas que.
Le symptôme majoritaire reste des nodules cutanés extrêmement douloureux, associé a un état fébrile, une baisse d’état général et parfois la mort. Le gros problème reste quand même économique : chute de production et cuirs non valorisables.
Remarkable how brutal the ruling against Trump on Abrego Garcia truly is: It details malicious abuses of power all throughout. Trump and Stephen Miller were testing their ability to spread lawless state terror. But the court held the line. 1/

For Trump/Miller, the Abrego Garcia case is a crucial gauge of how far they can get in disappearing undesirables/placing them beyond the law entirely.
Judge Xinis' ruling is important in that context. It calls out Trump's lawless conduct throughout. 2/

For weeks, Trump officials have refused to send him to Costa Rica even though he said he'd accept that. The ruling details extensive misconduct here.
We all know what happened: Trump/Miller decided sending him there wouldn't be dehumanizing enough. 3/

[THREAD🧵]
It was always going to be a worry for Pep's side going into the Bernabeu with his team's recent approach, a 2-3 build up shape with the fullbacks holding the width on both wings. Nico, Foden and Bernardo all occupying deep areas to overload the opponent.
Pep switches to a 3-1/3-2 (with Bernardo) build up but more emphasis on Nunes joining the last line of defense to control transitions. This time, Cherki/Bernardo holds the width on the RHS while Doku and O'Reilly rotate on the LHS.

In 1968, historian Robert Conquest published research showing Stalin killed millions.
Western intellectuals called him a propagandist. A Cold War hack. A CIA plant.
Then the USSR collapsed. The archives opened.
And every number he predicted was proven correct; or too conservative. 🧵

The 1960s had a serious Soviet problem.
While Conquest documented mass murder in Ukraine and the Gulag, Harvard professors praised Stalin's industrialization. British intellectuals visited Moscow and declared the future had arrived.
Anyone questioning this got dismissed as a reactionary.

One British historian refused to look away.
Robert Conquest spent the 1960s piecing together evidence from refugee testimonies, leaked documents, and demographic data that didn't add up.
His 1968 book "The Great Terror" documented Stalin's purges with precision.

“They believe in strength as morality.
The liberal view is ‘This is harsh; it’s inhuman; you’re punishing people who are weak, people who are defenseless.’
The flipside of this view morally is that those who are weak can be built up towards strength, and that is morality.”

This is the point the modern mass never grasps.
Morality is the standard by which a people judges conduct and character and determines what kind of man ought to be formed.
A serious moral order exists to shape mankind toward higher form. It sets demands and enforces discipline, treating self-command as a requirement rather than a preference. Its purpose is formative. It assumes that man must be trained and directed if he is to rise above impulse and drift. When morality abandons this role and concerns itself with comfort and reassurance, it ceases to order life and instead oversees decline.
We seek the restoration of a serious moral order.

2/5 "Irán y Rusia son los factores extranjeros que interfieren en Venezuela. Guardianes de la Revolución Iraní operan en bases aéreas venezolanas, entrenando en drones armados. Venezuela es el único país de Latinoamérica que los fabrica."

واسه همین آخوندا دوست ندارن شما انجیل رو بخونید و بدونید چرا آخوندها از انجیل متنفر هستند.
امثال همین آخوندها صاحب این معابد مرگ در دوران باستان بودند. امروز هم همون معابد دست همین آخوندهاست. به اسامی دیگری معابد رو باز کردن ولی همشون معابد مرگ هستند برای کشتار انسان.
