1/ Growing discontent about Russian government policies is reflected in an increasing willingness by Russian commentators to directly attack Vladimir Putin – still a very risky move. Warblogger Egor Guzenko calls Putin a liar over Internet shutdowns. ⬇️
2/ Writing on his channel 'Thirteenth', Guzenko – a veteran Russian nationalist who has been fighting in Ukraine from 2014 onwards – ignores the ever-present threat of the FSB and gives Putin both barrels:
3/ "You'll have to forgive me, but you know, Comrade Supreme Commander-in-Chief, what you're saying now is a blatant lie."

Someone asked, "Ya Rasulullah, can a child's dua change a parent's fate after death?" And the Prophet'sﷺ reply made prayer feel heavier..
We often think that once a person is placed in their grave, everything ends the story closed, the pages sealed, no more chances to change anything.

But the Prophetﷺ taught something far more hopeful, something that makes every whispered prayer feel heavier and more meaningful.
Heﷺ said that when a person dies, all their deeds come to an end except three: ongoing charity, knowledge that continues to benefit others, and a righteous child who prays for them.

What I've found is staggering.

46,547 OPT workers. 19,285 employers.

New OPT data from California was provided to my office.🧵 Image
Remember, OPT lets foreign students work in jobs directly related to their college major.

STEM gets UP TO 3 YEARS. Employers skip taxes—a 15%+ subsidy.

Cheap foreign labor on steroids, while Americans bear the cost of their own replacement.
This is a jobs heist. While American grads scramble, foreigners flood in. Image

Really proud that both @TheEconomist and @nytimes featured our @AtlanticCouncil research this week on the growth of China’s CIPS system since the beginning of the war in Iran. I know there is a lot of debate about the significance of this data so here is our case:
2/ CIPS experienced a 100% surge in volume in early April compared to a month prior based on daily observations. The network topped total transactions valued at over 1.2 trillion RMB for the first time - at least as far as we have data available.
3/ Given that the timing directly coincided with the start of the war and Tehran’s demand to be paid in RMB for oil sales, the connection seemed likely but required further digging.

Il “predominio energetico” USA rischia di naufragare nel Golfo Persico

Il mio nuovo articolo su #IntelligenceForThePeople
🧵
1/25

(Link all’articolo in fondo al thread) Image
Il concetto di “predominio energetico” è uno dei cardini della politica estera ed economica della Casa Bianca.
Esso si riferisce non soltanto alla capacità produttiva e di esportazione, ma alla possibilità di controllare infrastrutture, giacimenti, flussi energetici mondiali.
2/
Non siamo dunque di fronte a una mera politica energetica, ma a una vera e propria strategia geopolitica, come ha scritto Diana Furchtgott-Roth, una delle “menti” dell’amministrazione che hanno elaborato questa dottrina.

Did you notice something terrifying ?
Surah Al-Kahf is one of the greatest protections against Dajjal.
Yet the Surah never directly names him.

WHY?
If the Quran said "Beware of a man named X," we would wait for a specific face.But by withholding the name, the Qur’an teaches:
Dajjal is first a logic, then a leader.
A civilization, before an individual.

Here is how that Invisible Thread works:
The Dajjal is the peak of the "One-Eyed" worldview.

• He sees the physics, but not the Metaphysics.
• He sees the profit, but not the Barakah.
• He sees the body, but not the Soul.
Data, but not wisdom.
Control, but not accountability.

So instead of Here is his name, Allah gives four living diagnostics.

The London Marathon ballot for 2027 is open. This is what applicants are asked on categories. 👇

- No question on sex;
- No definition of “gender”;
- Using the names of the 2 sexes as answer options to request for “gender” data;
- Listing the 2 sexes along with “Non-binary”…. Image
….which is an identity, not a sex;
- No mention that post-puberty males are banned from the Female category (banned by UKA >3 years ago).

I conclude therefore that LM is using gender self-ID, not sex, for all the ballot places for the 2027 race (the entirety of the LM, inc …
…the Mass race, is licensed by England Athletics & therefore UKA rules apply - see my pinned tweet).

In April 2027, it will be >4 years since UKA banned males from F cat and >2 years since the UKSC judgment, yet LM will still be using self-ID.

Just below the above…

What should oil actually be trading at right now?
I ran the math. The number is uncomfortable.
Here’s the model 🧵
In 2020, COVID removed ~9% of global oil demand.
The market response:
— OPEC+ cut 9.7M b/d
— Price moved from $65 → -$37
— A $102 swing downward
9% demand shock = $102 price move.
In 2026, Hormuz removed ~14% of global oil supply.
Same math, opposite direction:
14% supply shock ÷ 9% demand shock × $102 =
$159 move upward
$65 base price + $159 = $224/bbl
That’s the raw number. Before adjustments.

その米兵がらみの事件が起こった時、米軍や政府が腕組みふんぞり返り会見をした上、遺族に弔電も謝罪もせず、現場の責任者が夜な夜な酒を飲み歩いた挙句「パニック」だからと会見から逃げ回ってたのならようやく比較として成り立ちますね。
不均衡なのは、命を失うに至った経緯を報道ではなく「遺族側が」発信せざるをえないほどこの1ヶ月地上波テレビにおいて言及がほとんどなかったことと、失われた命に第一義的に責任を持つ大人が酒を飲み歩いた上「死人を起こして聞けよ」と投げやり発言しても許されるその特権階級ぶりです。
「そりゃ批判は構いませんが」
↑大嘘つきが。

だったらこれはどうなんだよ、お前が怒る「べき」案件はこっちにもあっちにもあるぞという主張は、特定の案件へ批判が集中するのを避けたい人々による逃げの一手です。悍ましい。
こういうのを冷笑って言うんですかね。#whataboutism

HUELGA EN EDUCACIÓN Y CUESTIONES VARIAS:

- QUÉ SE PUEDE HACER.
- QUÉ NO SE PUEDE HACER.
- NORMATIVA APLICABLE.
¿Tengo que avisar de si voy a hacer huelga?

No. El preaviso lo da la convocatoria de huelga. Tú, individualmente, no tienes que avisar antes de que la secundas. El TC ha dicho además que no pesa sobre el trabajador esa obligación.
¿Dónde viene eso?

RDL 17/1977, arts. 3 y 4: el preaviso corresponde a la convocatoria de huelga. STC 45/2016: el trabajador no tiene obligación de comunicar previamente que la secunda.

fadime ve iso'nun ilişkisinde kıyafet konusunda devamlı olarak gördüğümüz bir şablon var:
fadime ve iso aynı duyguları paylaştıklarında aynı renk kıyafet ile karşı karşıya duruyorlar.
mesela kız isteme sahnesinde ikisi de siyahlara bürünmüştü.

siyah yasın hüzünün rengidir. fadime ölmesin diye anlaşmalı evlilik yaptıklarında, iradeleri ‘öldürüldü’ ve istedikleri kişiyle değil, koşulların mecbur kıldığı biriyle evlenmenin ve sevdiklerine yalan söylemiş olmanın yasını tuttular.

The American RW base is real, organic in origin & exists in vast numbers. We are America. We have long been suppressed by an Enemy relying on many types of deception:

1. Controlled Opposition & Influencers
2. Propaganda & Gaslighting
3. Fraud
4. Infiltration
5. False Flags

There are so many red pills scattered around that this point that they can't be avoided. Every major media outlet lying for 4 straight years about Biden's mental condition is one, so are the pervasive Covid lies.

The Left spits them out, and much of the RW takes little bites.
2/
The problem with taking little bites of the red pill is that one is still quite easily lied to & manipulated. No, my frens the only way to see what is happening is to swallow the entire red pill, and become a "radicalized conspiracy theorist".

If I wanted to reverse insulin resistance without medication, these are the 8 simple things I would do every day:

1. Not eat every 2-3 hours.
Most people think eating more often stabilizes blood sugar, but it usually does the opposite.

Every time you eat, you spike insulin.

I’d stick to 2-3 meals or use a 16:8 fasting window to let my body come back down.

Your system needs breaks to reset.
2. Walk after meals

Most people spike their blood sugar and just sit down to watch tv.

I’d take a 10–15 minute walk after my biggest meals.

This helps pull glucose into muscles without needing as much insulin.

It's one of the fastest ways to improve insulin sensitivity.

1/5 Trump has made the West incredibly vulnerable.

With the US distracted in the Middle East and munition stockpiles running low, Western deterrence is weakened.

A nightmare scenario of China and Russia launching coordinated attacks is forming.

Europe must step up faster Image
2/5 The blame for this weak deterrence falls heavily on Trump, and on Europe for not doing enough.

Trump is an unreliable, chaotic, and fundamentally weak leader.

His erratic approach to global security and the failed war in Iran have weakened the West Image
3/5 A nightmare scenario is actively forming right now.

Imagine if Russia and China coordinate to make their moves simultaneously.

With Washington absorbed by the Middle East and lacking the missiles for multiple wars, autocrats have a terrifying open window to strike Image

10 Reasons Women Crave Older Men More Than You Think

(There’s a hidden dynamic between older men and younger women few understand)

Thread Image
1. Older men usually know who they are.

A woman can feel when a man is settled in himself.

He is not trying too hard to impress.

Not fishing for validation.

Not changing his personality to be liked.

That has weight.

A man who knows himself makes a woman feel she is dealing with something real.

And women are drawn to what feels real.
2. He often carries a kind of certainty younger men haven’t developed yet.

He says what he means.

He moves with intention.

He does not second guess every move around women.

That creates attraction.

Because indecisive men make women feel uncertain.

A man with direction makes her relax into her feminine side.

She feels led without being pushed.

That is seductive.

Od zeszłego roku deweloperzy mają obowiązek ujawniać ceny oferowanych nieruchomości, zarówno na swoich stronach jak i w serwisie
Bardzo dobry ruch ustawodawcy, bo to co się działo u niektórych deweloperów to była komedia.
Niestety, ale praktyczna

realizacja zapisów ustawy jest do duszy. Zamiast przygotować bazę danych, gdzie deweloper wrzucałby oferowane nieruchomości oraz aktualizował ceny (lub usuwał sprzedane lokale) Ministerstwo Cyfryzacji przygotowało potworka, który puchnie z każdym dniem coraz bardziej.

Każdy z deweloperów (z tych, którzy poczuwają się do obowiązków ustawowych) wrzuca codziennie plik danych w jednym z akceptowanych formatów (xlsx, ods, csv, shp, xml, gml). Każdego dnia, bez względu, czy cokolwiek w pliku się zmieniło, a plik nie zawiera daty, więc bywają

A Ring employee searched for cameras labeled "Master Bedroom" and "Master Bathroom."

Then he watched 81 women for 3 months straight. An hour every day.

Ring did not catch him. A coworker did. The FTC fined Amazon $5.8 million.

Shut your Ring down in 2 minutes (bookmark this):
The story is not a rumor. It is in a federal court filing.

In May 2023, the FTC sued Ring. The complaint spelled it out in detail.

One Ring employee watched thousands of videos of 81 female users. He did it for months.

All pulled from Ring cameras in bedrooms and bathrooms.
The FTC said the employee picked his targets on purpose.

He searched camera names like "Master Bedroom," "Master Bathroom," and "Spy Cam."

He watched for an hour or more every day. For three straight months.

Ring had no system in place to catch him.
