They talk of tipping points as something in a hypothetical future.
We are tipping.
We are chugging towards a cliff edge squabbling in the back seat while maniacs fight for the wheel.

Another barbaric and utterly cynical Russian attack. Russia's brutality knows no limits, and its contempt for human life is beyond any moral justification.
In Komyshuvakha, Zaporizhzhia region, Russian forces struck a school used to distribute humanitarian aid and then attacked a shelter where civilians were hiding from Russian bombs. At least 26 people have been killed. Rescue operations are ongoing.
And yet, even as Russia continues to slaughter innocent Ukrainians, some are looking for ways to return to business as usual with Moscow, as if these atrocities were somehow irrelevant to their decisions.
This includes those in international sport who are discussing welcoming Russian teams back into competition.
What kind of moral bankruptcy does it take to rehabilitate a country that bombs people seeking humanitarian aid? Every Ukrainian civilian murdered by Russia is another reason to keep its flag and its athletes out of international sporting arenas. Those who open the doors to Russia must understand that they are opening them to a state that continues to kill.
Russia deserves condemnation, isolation, and consequences, not a return to international respectability. Its crimes cannot be separated from its flag, its national teams, or its attempts to regain international legitimacy.
I call on our partners to respond with decisive action and reject every attempt to return to business as usual with Russia. No concessions to a state that continues to murder innocent people and no rehabilitation without accountability.

russia murdered them today.
Rescuers Denys Konovalenko and Oleksii Sushevskyi, both 44, were killed in a double-tap strike on Komyshuvakha.
They spent their lives saving others. russia took theirs.

🔥 10% OF RUSSIA'S REFINING CAPACITY HIT IN 3 DAYS.
Ukraine hit three major refineries. 30–33 Mt/year.
The very ones whose losses forced the diesel export ban.
Trump will be pleased. 🧵

Hackers remotely turned supermarket fridges and freezers up to 50°C (122°F) overnight, forcing stores to throw away food.
Around 40 Delhaize, 15 Carrefour and 5 Spar stores in Belgium were hit. Stores in Sweden and 13 SuperValu shops in Ireland were also affected, according to Euronews and the BBC.
It's not known who's behind the attacks, but the method reportedly matches an attack on French supermarkets in October.

Must watch... she's so brave.
“I was one of the child victims of Donald Trump.” Dr. Larissa Portnoff, a clinical psychologist in her 30s, says it began around age 8 and resumed at 16 and 17. She thought she’d escaped “a pedophile ring,” calls Trump “clearly a pedophile and dangerous,” and says someone made an attempt on her life after her report.
Her message: “We need to get the corruption to stop. We need to use our voices. We need to get Donald Trump out of office.” And to Trump: “If you think you’re going to intimidate me, Donald Trump, it’s not going to work. I'm not afraid of you.” Please share. #press #Trump #Corruption #Justice #Accountability #rape

We are literally doomed
American High School English Teacher reads real responses from her student’s assignment after reading The Great Gatsby
We have a serious education issue in America and if we don’t address it, we have a horrible future ahead of us
These kind of responses are to be expected because 12th grade reading results in 2024 in America showed that reading levels right now the lowest they’ve ever been since the assessment began in 1992

From 1994 to 2025,Ukraine consistently voted in favor of the resolution condemning the blockade of Cuba. Conversely,in 2014,Cuba voted against the resolution recognizing Ukraine’s territorial integrity,and it has abstained every time a vote has been held on resolutions condemning ruSSian aggression,annexation,and so on. Up to 7,000 Cubans have been recruited into the russian army for russia’s war against Ukraine.
Incidentally,South American nations such as Argentina,Colombia,Costa Rica,and Paraguay have also voted against condemning the blockade of Cuba.
There are no free elections in Cuba.
Cuba refuses to cooperate in the extradition of foreign criminals hiding within its borders.
Cuba supports Russian aggression.
It is striking how states lacking free elections and good neighborly relations,plagued by state censorship,corruption,a lack of freedom,isolation ruled by madmens who consolidate all power in their own hands while banning opposition parties,are banding together into a modern-day "axis of evil."
Iran,Russia,Cuba,the DPRK,Nicaragua,Niger,Eritrea,Mali,Belarus,Burkina Faso and more recently the Trump administration which now controls the United States ... these are currently Russia’s closest allies. Quite a collection,aren't they?

👉🏿 I was born under a dictatorship and have spent a great deal of my adult life denouncing authoritarian regimes. I am deeply shocked to read the threatening statement issued by the @metpoliceuk . Threatening to arrest people for providing "logistical support" to peaceful demonstrators is the kind of threatening statement we are used to getting from the Ortega-Murillo dictatorship in Nicaragua. This is not what I expect from PM Andy Burnham’s Government. The UK is supposed to be a democracy, where freedom of speech is a pillar of society. Churchill’s words remind us that a true civilisation relies entirely on these liberties to maintain democratic accountability. Criminalising and proscribing Palestine Action as a terrorist organisation is a shameful authoritarian overreach.
Anyone planning to attend a demonstration in support of Palestine Action in the vicinity of the US Embassy on Saturday, 31 October will face arrest as part of a robust policing operation.
Expressing support for the group is an offence under the Terrorism Act following its proscription in June 2025, a decision upheld by the Court of Appeal in June 2026.

A prominent Russian military propagandist disclosed the truth - 80% of residents of occupied Oleshky asked to be evacuated to Ukraine, not to Russia. Oleshky has been occupied for 4.5 years, since day 1 of the war, but people on the occupied territories still consider themselves Ukrainians, even if they are prosecuted or harassed for this. Of course, the propagandist had to delete the information when it gained attention.

In today's Whitehouse on a Halloween party we a kid wearing a russian military uniform with a modern russian tank forces patch featuring Armata tank.
This is a carefully crafted political message by someone in Trump's inner circle.
This isn't a coincidence.
Troops wearing this patch are currently pillaging and raping Ukrainian children, while their supporters and enablers sends their kids to celebrate Halloween with the USA president.

VIDEO | "We are occupiers. Everything that is happening now is the result of the occupation"
According to a report by Arutz Sheva, veteran Israeli actress Chelli Goldenberg sparked widespread public controversy after declaring that she is "no longer proud to be Israeli" during a candid discussion she mistakenly believed was taking place off-air.
Speaking with television hosts during what she assumed was a commercial break, Goldenberg condemned decades of Israeli policy, stating, "We are occupiers. Everything happening now is a consequence of the occupation," while explicitly denouncing settler violence and "Jewish terrorism."
The former fashion model and cinema figure, who rose to prominence in the 1978 film Ha-Lahaka, emphasized that understanding the "sin of the occupation" took years, directly attributing the current regional crisis, military aggression, and social fragmentation to colonial expansion and extremist dominance.
Visibly distressed upon realizing the conversation had been broadcast live, she confronted the show's producers for failing to notify her that the cameras were rolling.

Child screaming for their father in Dnipro, fathers crying over the bodies of his daughters in Chernihiv.
Horrific pain.
I despise anyone who dares to say Ukraine doesn't want peace.
Let me clear this up.
When Palestinians or Lebanese resist having their homes destroyed or occupied that’s violence.
When Israelis destroy or occupy other people’s homes that’s heroism.
Piers Morgan: "The UN says settler violence is at an all-time high. Do you support it?"
Daniella Weiss: "I'm against violence. The Hilltop Youth are the wall that protects Israel. They are courageous."
Piers: "So you do support the violence?"
Weiss: "No! Jews are not violent! The settlers are not violent!"
Piers: "Actually, they are being violent. They're waging terrorism."
Weiss: "No. They are courageous."
You can't make this up.
She literally admitted to supporting the "courageous" settlers who are rampaging across the West Bank, and then denied that the violence is happening at all
