Human extinction is now the main scenario.
As the UK passes 5 days of 35C or more before the end of June those of you who understand that 2+2=4 , regardless of what you want it to equal, may wish to remind yourselves of why human extinction is now the main scenario... meaning seeing (or rather feeling hot) is believing....
"2027 will likely soar to between 1.7°C and 1.8°C for the calendar year average."
"Permanently passing 2°C next decade now seems unavoidable."
"This places the planet squarely in the danger zone for a number of the great tipping elements including the West Antarctic and Greenland Ice Sheets, Boreal Permafrost abrupt thawing, Ocean Current disruption and Amazon collapse."
And this final quote requires translation into normal language...
"We can only hope that these upcoming systemic shocks finally jolt global leadership and the voting public into treating the crisis with the structural seriousness it demands."
"With structural seriousness it demands" means millions of people go on the streets and remove the regime - revolutions.
"The crisis" means billions of people die quick violent deaths due to social breakdown or slow agonising deaths due to starvation.

Pirated movies are yours forever (till your HD gets corrupted).
No corporation can delete them on their whim. There is very little moral ground to oppose piracy when buying is not owning.
Support piracy. Support physical media.
Has there ever been a World Cup where a team is playing in the host country on the literal same day that the host country is bombing that team's country?
RAIS YATIM’S CRITICISM RAISES QUESTIONS — NOT JUST ABOUT ANWAR, BUT ABOUT POLITICAL CONSISTENCY.
IF A GOVERNMENT IS JUDGED BY PROMISES, THEN EVERY GOVERNMENT MUST ANSWER FOR ITS OWN UNFULFILLED PROMISES — NOT ONLY THE CURRENT ONE.
TALKING ABOUT OIL REVENUE AND PRODUCER STATES IS IMPORTANT. BUT THE QUESTION IS: WHERE WAS THIS SAME ENERGY WHEN PREVIOUS ADMINISTRATIONS MADE SIMILAR DECISIONS?
“MELAYU” AND “BAHASA MELAYU” SHOULD NOT BECOME POLITICAL SHIELDS. THESE ARE NATIONAL ISSUES THAT REQUIRE POLICY, NOT JUST RHETORIC.
CRITICISING DAP OR ANY PARTY IS A DEMOCRATIC RIGHT — BUT USING FEAR OF ONE PARTY’S INFLUENCE WITHOUT DISCUSSING ACTUAL GOVERNANCE RESULTS IS JUST OLD POLITICAL PLAYBOOK.
A SENIOR POLITICAL FIGURE SHOULD OFFER SOLUTIONS: WHAT POLICIES? WHAT REFORMS? WHAT ALTERNATIVE? NOT ONLY SAY “GIVE POWER TO OTHERS.”
THE PEOPLE ARE TIRED OF POLITICIANS WHO MOVE FROM ONE ERA TO ANOTHER BUT KEEP USING THE SAME OLD ARGUMENTS.
DEMOCRACY NEEDS ACCOUNTABILITY — INCLUDING ACCOUNTABILITY FOR THOSE WHO CRITICISE.
We are officially entering “Global Water Bankruptcy”.
The UN has announced that we will start running out of clean water (drinking, cooking, showering, dishes, laundry, etc.) in the next few years.
Water won't always be free. When clean water becomes scarce, it will be privatized, priced, and controlled. You will pay for it. And those who can't pay won't survive.
You know why this case is important to all Malaysian taxpayers?
1) Muslim individuals pay zakat, which is fully offset against the tax payable.
2) Ikram deals with this Zakat money reallocated from Zakat Perlis.
3) The allegation is he swindled the money instead of charity.
SERIOUS QUESTION: You don’t find it weird that not a single billionaire wants to end world poverty ?? Doesn’t it strike you as bizarre that no one with that kind of wealth wants to be the hero who actually solves the world’s biggest problems when they literally could ?? Isn’t that suspicious ??
To all racist people in Malaysia:

AFP has now exposed what many of us already knew - the latest anti-Rohingya panic in Malaysia was fuelled by fabricated posts, fake quotes, a non-existent “Rohingya leader”, bogus Instagram content and likely AI-generated images.
So where are all the Malaysian racists who screamed that Rohingya were “demanding Selayang” or plotting to kick Malays out of Malaysia?
You built a hate campaign against a persecuted people on lies.
You shared fake content, whipped up fear, signed removal petitions, and helped turn refugees into targets.
Read the AFP fact-check. Then apologise to the Rohingya families you helped endanger.
