What do you mean you don't obsessively count the number of chocolates in a tub of Celebrations every year and put the results into an Excel spreadsheet!?

Anyway, the 2025 results are in:
Bounty x5
Galaxy x5
Galaxy Caramel x5
Maltesers x5
Mars x9
Milky Way x9
Snickers x9
Twix x7

The tub itself has gone down another 50g since 2024 (100g since 2023!)

More people have probably seen the 60 Minutes segment than would have actually tuned in to the television broadcast, had it been allowed to run.

Malice, tempered by utter incompetence.

LOL BREAKING: Here’s the 60 Minutes Segment Trump and CBS News Executives Don’t Want You to See

thereset.news/p/breaking-heres…

Hours before it was set to air last night, CBS News executives pulled the segment, but Canada’s Global TV app received it prior to broadcast.

BREAKING: Here’s the 60 Minutes Segment Trump and CBS News Executives Don’t Want You to See

^{Yashar Ali (Yashar Ali | The Reset)}

An HD 1080p copy of the pulled 60 Minutes report on Inside CECOT was accidentally let out in Canada briefly.

So here it is, available for download at DDoSecrets.

You know what to do: wideband this.

Bari Weiss did not want anyone to see this. It makes the US look bad.

Watch it then tell me what _you_ think.

ddosecrets.com/article/inside-…

“There was blood everywhere, screams, people crying, people who couldn’t take it and were urinating and vomiting on themselves.”

That’s what Bari Weiss decided America didn’t need to see on 60 Minutes.

The segment included torture allegations, beatings in pitch-black punishment cells, and data showing only 3% of deported men were convicted of violent or potentially violent crimes.

Journalism didn’t fail. Leadership did.
See the full unedited version below.

“Immense world” is a remarkable book written with a lot of science but also sensitivity. I try to get everyone to read it. It totally changed the way that I think about how animals think.

The audiobook is great. With non-fiction sometimes audiobooks don't work, but this one is worth listening to. (Or just read the paperback)

Anyway, if you are looking for something that expands your horizons. Something that teaches you new things and that's ... positive.

This is it.

La Russia sta preparando l’escalation ibrida

@Informatica (Italy e non Italy 😁)
Di fronte al declino delle capacità convenzionali e ai costi crescenti della guerra tradizionale, il Cremlino è pronto a puntare sempre più sulla guerra ibrida come principale strumento di escalation. L'analisi di Francesco D’Arrigo estratta dal libro “Minacce Ibride” (Paesi Edizioni).

"Certain species of fish can be up to two times bigger when living in protected offshore wind farm zones, a new study has found.

Not only do the rough surfaces of turbine monopiles and submarine cables provide new habitats for sponges, corals, anemones and other sessile organisms, but that extra food source allows other creatures to thrive as well.

“These benthic-dominated [ocean flora and fauna that live close to the seabed] ecosystems are critical for nutrient cycling, diversifying food webs and even storing carbon,” according to Murdoch Prof Loneragan in Global Ecology and Conservation."

Offshore wind turbines create all-you-can-eat havens where some fish can double in size

New study shows offshore wind turbines create different marine environments that accommodate more groups and more complexity in the oceanic food chain.

Крупнейшая нефтяная компания России оказалась на пороге масштабного кризиса, но делает вид, что все хорошо. Отрасль обречена?

Нефтегазовые доходы спасли Россию от экономического кризиса в первый год войны, но обслуживание геополитических интересов Путина дорого обошлось «Роснефти». У компании падают объемы добычи и доходы.

Игорь Сечин жалуется на налоги, тарифы и ключевую ставку, а новые санкции США значительно ухудшают ситуацию и бьют по государственному бюджету.

Черные перспективы «Роснефти» — в материале «Холода».

Since the beginning of the year, the number of payment defaults in tenders announced by state-owned companies (!) has almost tripled in #Russia. While in 2024 there were 1.5 billion roubles worth of enforcement requests, this year the figure has already reached 4.03 billion. It is mainly state-owned companies that are in arrears with payments to subcontractors, causing a whole cascade of arrears further down the line.

According to Mediascope, which measured the viewership, this is actually record low, representing only 11.9% of the potential audience.

In other words, 88% of Putin’s potential viewers chose not to watch his brilliant, off-topic remarks filled with grunts and coughs. And you can’t blame them - when you hear the same bullshit for 20 years - and I mean it, he’s using the same words and catchprases - what’s even the point?

СМИ рассказали о расколе в администрации Трампа из-за войны в Украине

Между спецпосланником президента США Дональда Трампа Стивом Уиткоффом и госсекретарем Марко Рубио произошел раскол из-за разных взглядов на завершение войны в Украине и на то, насколько можно доверять обещаниям России. Об этом сообщает NBC News со ссылкой на более чем 10 анонимных источников.

«Кажется, они совершенно по-разному мыслят. А если у вас нет общего понимания проблем и вашего противника в переговорах, ничего хорошего из этого не выйдет», — рассказал изданию бывший посол США в России Александр Вершбоу.
