Putin Signs Law Criminalizing Searches for ‘Extremist’ Content - The Moscow Times
President Vladimir Putin on Thursday signed into law a controversial bill that criminalizes accessing or searching for online content labeled “extremist.” The legislation, criticized by both Kremlin loyalists and opposition figures, introduces fines of up to 5,000 rubles (about $64) for individuals who “knowingly” view or seek out banned materials.

However, if you could *try* to aim in the direction of the White House, we’d all be very grateful.

In my 64 years I have seen nothing like this:
1. Serious talk about USA annexing Canada
2. Serious talk about USA annexing Greenland
3. Israel conducts air strike on hospital in Gaza
4. Trump’s latest antics include contempt for Europe
Is this where peace and progress stops?

Insects may have been evolving to avoid light. Maybe the decline in insect population is not an actual decline; rather, bugs have started to hide where entomologists aren’t looking. 🧪
