I got this article in my newsfeed about the change of time estimated for the universe to decay. And I saw this passage about how black holes can decay: "One of the consequences of this so-called Hawking radiation is that a black hole very slowly decays into particles and radiation. This contradicts Albert Einstein's theory of relativity, which says...
I've lived long enough to watch our food change, slowly at first, then all at once. I remember when dinner meant something you made, not something you microwaved. When a sandwich was two slices of bread and a few honest ingredients, not a plastic-wrapped product that could survive a nuclear winter. Over the years, I've seen pantries fill up with pa...
There's a quiet unease that comes with living in the shadow of a sleeping giant, especially when that giant begins to stir. Campi Flegrei, nestled just west of Naples, is one of those giants. A name that doesn't often make the headlines unless it grumbles, which it's been doing more often lately. The signs are there for those who are watching. Smal...
Keir Starmer's recent immigration pledge seems less like a genuine commitment to addressing Britain's immigration woes and more like a tactical move to stave off the rising popularity of populist parties such as Reform UK. While Starmer's Labour Party has long embraced pro-immigration rhetoric, the recent shift in his stance on immigration reform a...
You've probably seen it on Quora, Reddit, or in some corporate "intelligence test" folklore. It goes like this: There are three sealed boxes. One is labelled "Apples," one "Oranges," and one "Apples & Oranges." Each box contains either only apples, only oranges, or a mix of both. But here's the twist: all the labels are wrong! You may open only...
While my father-in-law, Charles Taylor, takes a dig at Trump's diet in his piece today, I focus on geopolitics. Donald Trump's presidency, often marked by controversy and unconventional policies, stands out for its focus on reshaping America's role in the world. While his critics frequently point to his brash style and unorthodox methods, there's a...
Ah, so much for "Make America Healthy Again," right? As President Trump touches down in Saudi Arabia, we're getting a deliciously ironic display of international diplomacy, brought to you by the golden arches. Yes, folks, in an apparent homage to his legendary McDonald's cravings, the Saudi government has set up a mobile McDonald's at the press cen...
In recent years, the development of implantable brain-computer interfaces (BCIs) has surged from the pages of speculative fiction into the labs of Silicon Valley and the ambitions of global technocrats. Companies like Elon Musk's Neuralink, and research institutions worldwide, are racing to develop and commercialise technologies that link human bra...
I was reading this piece from the Baker Institute the other day, and it hit me like a ton of solar panels and wind turbine blades: Germany, the poster child for getting stuff done in Europe, is totally fumbling its energy game. I mean, this is the country everyone used to look up to for efficiency, cranking out cars and machines like nobody's busin...
A recent study published in the International Journal of Preventive Medicine analysed 85 million cases of people receiving the mRNA vax. An alarming number of injuries were uncovered, more than with any previous vaccine. For example: Stroke risk increased by 240% after the first dose of any Covid vaccine. Heart attack risk surged by 286% following ...
Cancer was once considered a disease of old age, a distant worry for most young adults. But a disturbing trend is rewriting that narrative: Millennials and Generation X are facing a dramatic rise in cancer rates, with some types striking two to three times more frequently than in previous generations. From colorectal cancer in people as young as th...
Nuclear energy has long been a polarising topic. While it offers a powerful solution to meet global energy demands with minimal carbon emissions, critics point to safety risks, high costs, radioactive waste, proliferation dangers, resource scarcity, and public fear as reasons to steer clear. However, a new wave of innovation in thorium-based nuclea...
There was a time when the mere mention of foreign adversaries establishing bases in Cuba would send shockwaves through Washington. In 1962, it brought the world to the brink of nuclear war. Today, the warnings are eerily similar, but the response from the Trump White House is muted, bordering on negligent. Satellite imagery and open-source intellig...
The Australian Bureau of Statistics (ABS) released its first-ever estimates of the LGBTI+ population, showing that 4.5% of Australians aged 16 and over (over 900,000 people) identify as lesbian, gay, bisexual, trans, gender diverse, or intersex. The data, compiled from nearly 45,000 health survey respondents, indicates higher rates among younger gr...
Picture, if you will, a grand circus tent, once a beacon of inclusivity, now a chaotic funhouse where dissent is a sin, and the ringmaster wields a cancel button instead of a whip. Welcome to the modern Democratic Party, where, according to recent tales of betrayal and cover-ups, madness reigns, bad behaviour festers, and danger lurks for anyone wh...
I stumbled across this article by Pete Colan in American Thinker from December 2024, and it's got me thinking. It's all about how Earth's magnetic field is this chaotic, unpredictable beast that might be messing with our climate way more than we realise. Colan's got a bone to pick with the usual "CO2 is evil" crowd, and he's digging into some real ...
While pre-Covid the ruling elites were concerned with controlling the narrative on topics like race and immigration, the turning point in the suppression of thought came with Covid, a new era of tyranny with what an article in The Daily Sceptic, who held their own during the covid years, calls "infodemic management." This is a globalist movement no...
Diamonds are celebrated for their enduring brilliance, a symbol of permanence forged under immense pressure over eons. Yet, a recent discovery from Yale University suggests that the Covid spike protein, produced by mRNA vaccines, might rival this longevity in a far less glamorous way. Researchers have detected the spike protein in the blood of some...
In an era dominated by artificial intelligence, two distinct voices, a pontiff and a physicist, have raised urgent warnings about its existential risks. Pope Leo XIV, the newly elected leader of the Catholic Church, and Max Tegmark, an MIT physicist and cosmology visionary, caution that AI could unravel human dignity, autonomy, and survival if left...
For decades, environmentalism has been dominated by the political Left. Wrapped in the language of moral panic and marketed as urgent salvation, the modern environmental movement has abandoned rational stewardship for ideological control. But this wasn't always the case. Before it was hijacked by globalists, socialists, and technocrats, environment...
