This summer, Mikhail Loshchinin set out for Russia on a motorcycle with German plates, reaching the border in Latvia on July 1.
At the Ubylinka checkpoint on the Russian side, he presented his Russian passport.
According to his mother, Olga, he didn’t use his Belgian passport because of the urgency of the trip and to avoid needing a visa.
Russian border guards examined Loshchinin’s phone and likely discovered his many contacts in Ukraine.
After holding him for several…

The other figure is dressed in dark, hooded robes and is holding what looks like a wooden staff or walking stick. The lighting and staging suggest this is from a television production, with dramatic shadows and atmospheric lighting typical of science fiction or fantasy programming from that era. The …

Yes, there are bombs falling in Venezuela and the president has been kidnapped. But Venezuela isn’t a NATO member, so nothing to see here, move on. Besides, the president of the attacking country is still at his golf resort, holding court, ah, a press conference. So really nothing serious, move on!

COP30 climate pledges favor unrealistic land-based carbon removal over emission cuts, says report

Feeling helpless? Don’t. All of this resistance makes a real and concrete difference. Honestly, the fact that this huge chunk of local residents is giving a visible, sustained “HELL NO” all the time is basically the •only• thing holding them back at this point — but it •is• making a difference.

Die Merz-CDU fällt mit einer ablehnenden Haltung zur Arbeit auf:
Menschen, die arbeiten und sich nicht ausbeuten lassen, stellt er als Faulenzer*innen dar. Selber ist aber kaum klar, ob Merz sinnvoll arbeitet oder nur rumstänkert. Denn wenn er tatsächlich mal arbeiten müsste, beispielsweise für unsere Energieversogrung und Unabhängigkeit von fossilen Diktaturen, kommt deutschland oberster Arbeitsverweigerer mit faulen Ausreden von

Another film, another unattributed use of #OpenStreetMap. This is the fourth movie I’ve seen this year commit this sin and the latest culprit is this Netflix Christmas romcom titled Champagne Problems.
Their travesty is now immortalized on the OSM Wiki:
