I have a feeling Trump may have picked the wrong opponent this time. The man whose administration spent $5.1 million of public money restoring and covering 4 enormous statues near the Lincoln Memorial in 23-carat gold leaf. The man who already has a 5-metre gold statue of himself at his Florida golf resort. The man whose name now adorns an international airport. That man has apparently decided that the world still hasn't properly appreciated the commercial value of the Trump brand.

So he is suing the BBC for at least $10 billion...

An image reportedly posted by Donald Trump on his Truth Social platform has caused a stir, considering June is Pride Month. An inadvertent celebration? ;-)

Sydney Sweeney, best known for Euphoria and The White Lotus, recently posted a no-makeup photo - and the internet had a lot to say.
While many fans praised her for embracing her natural look, others criticized her for “not looking like herself” without glam. The mixed reactions highlight the intense pressure celebrities face to always appear polished and camera-ready.
By sharing the unfiltered photo, Sydney challenged the unrealistic beauty standards that often shape Hollywood - and social media. The moment quickly turned into a bigger conversation about authenticity, self-image, and why women are still judged so harshly for simply looking human.
Sometimes the boldest statement isn’t makeup - it’s confidence without it.

Let's keep this simple.

First thing he wants: To secure the Arctic against Russian encroachment.
What is the sane way to get it: Work with Europe and Denmark on cooperation, strengthen NATO presence, and invest jointly in security and infrastructure in Greenland.
Knowing this is Trump, what is likelier to happen: He damages relations with Europe, bullies allies, and treats Greenland like a real estate deal. Even if US leverage in the Arctic increases short term, the long term damage to trust and alliances helps Russia more than it hurts it.

Next thing he wants...

The Bro Map Of America

...Nobel prize can go to Trump next year, I guess?

But I have a question...

1) Take some obscure actress and start posting about her
2) Create an artificial controversy around her
3) Have loads of folks fume about it on both sides
4) Generate online buzz
5) Profit!
And she's not even exceptionally pretty!

Oh, that damn Windows!

It's crap, I know, but we can't live without it. Or can't we?

Anyway, Windows can be annoying AND funny at the same time, depending the angle you look at it from (and your current mood). Want examples? You insist on examples? Okay, you asked for it: LINK!

Influencers 'new' threat to uncontacted tribes, warns group after US tourist arrest

Mykhailo Viktorovych Polyakov, 24, allegedly landed on North Sentinel Island in an apparent attempt to make contact with the isolated Sentinelese tribe, filming his visit and leaving a can of coke and a coconut on the shore.
.....Mr Polyakov blew a whistle off the shore of the island in a bid to attract the attention of the tribe for about an hour.
He then landed for about five minutes, leaving his offerings, collecting samples and recording a video.
It is illegal for foreigners or Indians to travel within 5km (three miles) of the islands in order to protect the people living there.
......such visits pose a threat to a community which has no immunity to outside diseases.

Or hey, maybe you can contract something from there and bring it back to the rest of the planet! Wait... nevermind that...
