A father screams in anguish beside the body of his dead daughter. Two 15-year-old girls were killed in a russian attack on the center of Chernihiv, Ukraine.
Dozens are injured, including four children aged 10, 16, and 17, and a 10-month-old baby girl.
Meanwhile, Trump has ordered Ukriane not to hit russian oil refineries, so that russia could make billions and build more rockets and drones to kill more Ukrainians.

Russland in seiner jetzigen Form mit seiner aktuellen Regierung hat jede Legitimität verloren.

A massacre in the Dnipro passenger railway station today. A guided Russian drone targeted a crowded platform, killing at least 13 people and injuring many others, as per city officials.
But diesel. But Russia wants peace. But don’t you dare hit their refineries.

Fascinating: Mayan burial practice where teeth of elites were sometimes separated from the rest of the body and buried around another body over a period of centuries. I don't think i have encountered another similar practice anywhere. science.org/content/article/… @ScienceMagazine

Bret Stephens in NYT: "Yes, Israel is a flawed country that’s not above reproach. But it’s difficult to take Israel’s inveterate critics seriously when they demand a “Free Palestine” without registering the slightest audible objection to the tyrannies in Ramallah and Gaza; or when, in the name of freedom and equality, they seek to abolish the Middle East’s only functioning liberal democracy."

Trump is considering lifting sanctions against Russia's government investment fund, run by Dmitriev.
Trump Jr. was just on a Mongolian hunting trip, paid for by the same Russian oligarch who paid for his wedding.
Do ANY of the US checks and balances still actually function??

This is serious and awful behavior from Meta.
Meta had an internal PR plan to try and discredit Jon Haidt because he was a critic of social media.
Meta was going to recruit academics, like Andrew Gelman, to write take down pieces. They were trying to turn academics against one another through a "whisper strategy".
This is a very serious problem for open academic debate. If academics who share negative evidence about a platform are targeted by campaigns to smear our credibility, we are in deep, deep trouble.
This creates a very serious conflict of interest for anyone who is paid to do this.

All of these deals benefit Trump’s friends and family or the friends of his family. They were previewed by the Wall Street Journal in November 2025. A tally follows.

Why many Ukrainians were skeptical of this Melania-brokered deal. At best, the evacuees will be used in some Russian propaganda stunt. At worst…
🚨 FT: Residents of occupied Oleshky seeking evacuation would be taken to Crimea or Russia instead of Ukrainian-controlled territory just across the Dnipro River.
This is a terrifying warning sign. Russia is preparing to turn an evacuation into a deportation operation. It will exploit people’s desperation for a propaganda stunt, put them through filtration camps, and forcibly keep them under Russian occupation, where they would remain in grave danger.

После того, как Трамп объявил награду в размере 1 миллиона долларов за раскрытие избирательного мошенничества, сенатор Чак Шумер поделился аудио- записью 2021 года, в которой Трамп попросил министра иностранных дел Джорджиии найти 11 780 голосов, чтобы отменить его поражение на президентских выборах 2020 года.
"Я уже нашел это, Дональд Трамп. Где мой 1 миллион долларов?"
"Вы можете перевести его напрямую 10 000 избирательным работникам, которые добровольно отделяют свое время, чтобы предотвратить ваши попытки украсть промежуточные выборы."

This is horrific. Residents of occupied Oleshky who wish to escape to free Ukraine will not be allowed to cross the Dnipro River – which is less than 4 km away. They will be taken to occupied Crimea or to the Russian Federation, where they will be subjected to coercive measures.

Pistorius is right to say that, through the sham ceasefire talks, russia is playing for time.
Let’s not fall for this ploy!
With each passing day, it is manufacturing new missiles—aimed at Ukraine today, at Europe tomorrow.
Our sole aim: to defeat russia.

What a disgraceful press release ! Mao was a dictator responsible for the deaths of tens of millions of Chinese people. Only a dictator can lay claim to his legacy. Let’s not allow dictators to rewrite history.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Mao Zedong is under any single social metric a dictator. Not a single popular election, single government party and lifetime leadership. Not even taking into account the millions of deaths under his reign.

We're about to enter a period where not reading or writing becomes as ubiquitous as smoking once was. We can hope people will eventually realize this is bad for them, as they did with smoking. But this is far from certain; the cost may not be as obvious.
