A cartoon from the 1950’s that’s more relevant than ever 💔
To understand what's happening in Iran today, you have to know about the history of Western intervention in the country.
In the early 1900s, the British secured oil rights in the country until 1993, where they only agreed to pay Iran 16% of the total profits.
This was seen as an unfair deal. 🧵
Cartoon showing a hallway in the White House. A gold-painted trophy cabinet has an ornate top with the name 'Donald J. Trump', a dove of peace and a crown above it. In the cabinet, we see the FIFA Peace Prize, a frame with the logo of the Board of Peace with the image of Donald Trump and the text 'Chairman for Life', and a display case with the label 'Reserved for Nobel Peace Prize'. Next to the cabinet is an open doorway with a sign 'Department of War'. Through the doorway, we see a war room with Trump, pushing a big red button and looking up at a big screen that has the map of Iran with a big target projected over it. A general offers him a McDonald's meal on a silver platter.

Geweldig dit. Op München Hbf.
Hoe noem je dat ook alweer? een post...postka...postkantoor!
If there was ever going to be any proof that WikiLeaks is essentially dead, it's the Epstein files. Integrating this sort of data and making it searchable is right up the organization's old alley.
The good news is that @ddosecrets.org and @dropsitenews.com joined forces with Jmail to do just that.
Hulde voor deze Hart van Nederland-journalist!
NEW: Records reviewed by WIRED show DHS’s facial recognition app (Mobile Fortify) isn’t designed to actually "verify" identity—despite DHS claims and its agents relying on its matches to support probable cause in the field.
NEW: A new tool searches your LinkedIn connections for people who are mentioned in the Epstein files.
404 Media tested the tool, called EpsteIn—as in, a mash up of Epstein and LinkedIn—and it appears to work.
We moeten meer belasting betalen over ons inkomen, terwijl de belasting op vermogen even laag blijft. D66, VVD en CDA willen in de vorm van de ‘Vrijheidsbijdrage’ jaarlijks 5 miljard ophalen voor de investeringen in Defensie. 3,4 miljard daarvan wordt bij de burgers gehaald, allemaal op het inkomen.
De overdrachtsbelasting voor beleggers op de woningmarkt wordt opnieuw verlaagd: van 8% naar 7%. Dat volgt op een eerdere besluit tot verlaging van 10% naar 8% in 2025.
woningcorporaties worden nog steeds fiscaal gestraft
een draadje:
Worth noting we tested the same or very similar prompts against ChatGPT, Gemini, and Llama. All were refused, with many yielding warning messages around nonconsensual images.
Hulde voor @daveschut.bsky.social

Fijn, dankzij deze grafiek begrijp ik eindelijk hoe internet in Iran is uitgeschakeld!
Wtf heb ik net gelezen?!

This person went on a buying spree over the past 24 hours. Fresh wallet. Only existed since Dec 27th and has only bet on Venezuela-related markets.

Same here. But never informed me about it. Only after I wanted to log in to check their “wrapped” stuff, did they show me that I needed to change my password.
Lets go! #ChristmasEveTraditions
WOW: The DOJ has DELETED an image from its release of the Epstein files that shows photos of Trump in a drawer.
Yesterday, we noted that this image — file 468 — likely slipped through the cracks while officials were attempting to hide materials pertaining to Trump.
Now, it’s gone.

Ondertussen, gisteren in Nieuws van de Dag, op SBS 6: Sinterklaas voelt zich gecanceld, hij moet ieder jaar weer aan de kinderen vragen ‘hoe ze zich nu weer identificeren’. De Sint is ook helemaal klaar met GroenLinks. Hele normale televisie.
Minority representation on TV causes outrage There has been widespread support for prominent Reform MP Sarah Pochin after she complained about the over-representation of minorities on television. Said one angry viewer, "She's right. Every time you turn on the telly there's another Reform MP being interviewed by Laura Kuenssberg." She added, "I respect their way of life and their strange customs, but Reform MPs comprise only 0.7 percent of the House of Commons. Yet Nigel Farage is on Question Time more than Fiona Bruce." "I'm not prejudiced. Some of my best friends are swivel-eyed loons, but enough is enough. There are too many people with angry red faces on television.”
Gotta love Private Eye.
Always cuts through the crap.
ChatGPT cited a paper of mine which I did not know existed, so I asked it for the link to it.
Unfortunately that link to the Nature website just gave a "Page not found".
So sad.
Geen beleid voeren om klimaatdoelen te halen, en de boetes die je dan krijgt betalen met het geld dat bedoeld is om de klimaatdoelen te halen.
Is deze regering nog wel legaal?

There's an old quote supposedly by the founder of Honda: "When Congress passes new emissions standards, we hire 50 more engineers and GM hires 50 more lawyers." Sounds like the Euro automakers do the same bullshit, and sounds like more or less the same result
Als de woorden worst en burger al zo verwarrend zijn voor de mensen, waarom maakt de Europese Unie zich dan niet druk over partijen die vrijheid of democratie ten onrechte in hun naam hebben staan?
We just made this graph showing most people in the world could get by on just some solar panels and batteries.
The X axis is basically latitude, but we filled in how many people live between the equator and a certain latitude.
The Y axis shows the amount of solar and batteries needed
