Blue whales are falling silent from hunger. The krill are gone. The sea is too warm. Their songs fade away.
This is no anomaly. Humanity is deaf to a symphony of grief and warnings.

Farage frothing about WFH again…

Why Farage Can Get Stuffed on Working From Home
WFH isn’t a perk - it’s a lifeline. But of course, the fuckers who want it gone are the ones who’ve never had to endure the chaos the rest of us call “Tuesday.”

In 2022 Nigel Farage said “When I was leader of UKIP I had several conservative members of parliament who wanted to defect & sit as UKIP. I said to all of them the only acceptable way you can do that is to resign your seat and hold a by-election”

Where are the by-elections now?

The far right all over have links with Russia and Epstein.
As Le Point and Le Monde have both reported, Epstein was running a major project out of his luxurious apartment in Paris' 16th arrondissement to advance the interests of Marine Le Pen and her Pétainiste party, which appears to have been coordinated on several levels with the Kremlin. Here's Bannon.

The Russians are weedling their way back into global sport.

How can this be allowed to happen?
