These two giant tortoises have been fighting each other for over 120 years. According to the zoo, one tortoise stole the other’s food 120 years ago, and from that day on they became enemies. There hasn’t been a single day where they haven’t fought for a while

Remember when the Cass Review came out, activists said it was full of mistakes & no one should follow it?

The British Medical Assoc. did a review *of the Cass Review*… a meta-review, in response to activist critics

Result: BMA vindicates every one of Cass’ 82 recommendations

Cannabis is detrimental to sperm: even if they can fertilize, there can be DNA damage. Many miscarriages and (in the case of IVF) “day 3 crashes” which is when paternal DNA normally kicks in, are cannabis related. Dr Natalie Crawford on the Huberman Lab podcast out now.

A UN Committee warns against assisted suicide for mental illness, saying autonomy alone is not a sufficient safeguard.

"People wanting something doesn't mean it's good for them, and can reflect therapeutic nihilism."

The UN also called for Track 2 "MAID" to be repealed.

In Germany years ago they built the Berlin Wall to keep people in.
Today, Carney’s Liberals want to use an exit tax to keep you in.

An atheist ponders the intellectual benefits of religion:

The change came when trangender ideology emerged:
"I have never seen anything like it. In amazement, I watched scores of people I respected add pronouns in their emails, flags to their bios, and repeat circular mantras like “trans women are women”.

The same people who laughed at religious credulity accepted the idea of a “gender” fully and without question, and worse–they suppressed all open discussion.

Overnight, the same people who campaigned against blasphemy laws enacted their own version without a hint of irony. I watched long-standing figures in the movement be cast down for this crime of doubt; first by insane radicals on social media, but as the disease progressed, also by the most prominent organizations we had.

In other words, movement atheism had betrayed nearly every value it claimed to stand for.

I think of all the kind and generous people I had met there (including the heads of FFRF), and my heart breaks to see their fall. There are many, I’m sure, who are bowing only because the pressure to do so is enormous, and I can sympathize with this and wouldn’t wish a woke mob on anyone. I myself stayed silent far longer than I should have. But while I have compassion for the bullied, I am astonished at the zealotry of the believers, who are legion.

Most humiliating of all is the fact that atheists appear to be more likely than the religious to hold this particular unscientific dogma–a malfeasance heightened by the direct contradiction it poses to (alleged) core principles of reason and science.

It is because of this I now seriously ponder what I could not have imagined myself considering just a few years ago: the intellectual value of faith.

I wonder if I have greatly overestimated human reason. In the past, I had mostly thought about the “ceiling” that faith created–the ways in which religion hindered progress, scientific achievement and understanding.

But now I think much more about the “floor” it creates, too. Perhaps without certain myths granting the power of the sacred to some fundamental truths (like the fact that there are two sexes), we would drift away from reality altogether. Maybe that is what is happening now. I could not have imagined it could be so.

I was wrong."

WATCH: Canada's Green Party leader Elizabeth May alleges that members of the IRGC living in Canada are obtaining baptismal certificates in the Anglican Church of Canada to hide their identities.

One out of every 20 deaths in Canada is now caused by the government’s assisted suicide program.

What’s even more shocking is how fast the deaths are approved, writes @RupaSubramanya.

I see my church fire map is making the rounds again. Over a hundred Canadian churches attacked since the "mass graves" claims.

What's more disturbing is "two-sprit owned" Indigenous companies like "The Spirited Brand" monetized anti-Christian attacks as a fashion statement.

They went from “it’s not happening” to “good it happened, now let's put it on a hoodie” pretty damn quickly.

You can read about the map and the church burning crisis in Dead Wrong, where I wrote an entire chapter about it: https://t.co/2cAKgUBP8c

The largest Danish left-wing party looked to be losing the upcoming election, but have now had a large bump due to Trump's Greenland posturing.

He had the same effect on the Canadian election.

And the election in Australia.

Quite possibly there is no person who has had as detrimental an effect on right-wing political success across The West as Trump.

These are very important times, with the spectre of mass immigration hanging over all of The West. It's not the time to fuck around in this way.

‼️ BREAKING: US Department of Health and Human Services calls out MAiD

For “using their physician-assisted suicide program to bolster organ donation numbers."

Human organ harvesting.

“We thought we'd seen all the possible horrors, you know, in America, and then Canada had this strange new horror that was really just shocking."

-Deputy Sec. Jim O'Neill

The UN is calling on Canada to repeal MAiD for those suffering with mental health issues and asks for stricter rules.

Why does the world see the issues with this but Canadians don’t?

[Billboard Chris 🌎 @BillboardChris]

I would love it if the U.S. State Department put out a statement denouncing this.

They should threaten sanctions on any Canadian government official or doctor involved in ‘euthanizing’ people with mental illness.

[Billboard Chris 🌎 @BillboardChris]

This young man was euthanized by Canada’s government-run healthcare.

Kiano had diabetes, vision impairment, and struggled with mental illness.

He was only 26 years old.

——

His mother wrote the following on Facebook.

With a broken heart, I am sharing that my baby boy Kiano passed away on December 30, 2025, after being euthanized.

Four years ago, here in Ontario, we were able to stop his euthanasia and get him some help. He was alive because people stepped in when he was vulnerable and not capable of making a final, irreversible decision.

Tragically, the Canadian system later allowed something very different to happen in Vancouver—where a doctor named DR ELLEN WIEBE AKA DR DEATH #2 approved his death based on mental illness. This approval occurred despite euthanasia for mental illness being banned until 2027. Somehow, DR DEATH #2 found a loophole in the system, one that now demands to be exposed so that no other parent has to endure this.

This is disgusting on every level. And I promise I will fight this tooth and nail for my son and other parents who too have children that suffer from mental illness.
As a mother and after watching and reading countless stories from other families, I can say this experience was not only devastating, but deeply disturbing. The actions of DR ELLEN WIEBE reveal a pattern of coldness and disregard for vulnerable human life that I can no longer stay silent about, just that scary smile shows her entitlement for taking peoples lives…..

No compassion.
No protection.
No effort to save a life, only to end it.
This is not healthcare.
This is a failure of ethics, accountability, and humanity.

No parent should ever have to bury their child because a system—and a doctor—chose death over care, help, or love.

In time, I intend to pursue accountability against DR ELLEN WIEBE and to stand alongside other families and associations who have been harmed by these same decisions. I know we are not alone.

Right now, we are making arrangements for my son’s funeral this Saturday Jan 10. Details will be shared once finalized.

Thank you to everyone who has supported our family, prayed for us, and stood by us through all these years of pain and hope. Please keep our family in your prayers during this unbearable time

[“Sudden And Unexpected” @toobaffled]

Canada’s euthanasia regime has claimed yet another young life after a 26-year-old man suffering from depression was euthanized by the government’s assisted death program, despite previously being rejected for the lethal injection by a doctor who said he was too “young and healthy” to be killed.

[Camus @newstart_2024]

Bret Weinstein just said something that won’t leave my head:
For the first time in 300,000 years of human evolution, we removed the cost from the single biggest reward nature ever invented — sex and pair-bonding.

Reliable birth control + abortion = you can now cash the evolutionary lottery ticket without paying the 20-year mortgage of pregnancy, diapers, sleepless nights, and college funds.

Result? An entire generation of 18–35-year-olds walking around with the energy, libido, hormones, and protective instincts that evolution spent millions of years calibrating for child-rearing… but with zero actual children. That energy didn’t disappear. It got redirected.

Heather Heying’s observation is brutal: young women especially began treating ideologies the exact way evolution wired them to treat babies. Climate change, social justice, whatever the cause of the month is — it gets defended with literal mama-bear ferocity, the same neurochemistry that once guarded a toddler from predators now guards an abstract idea from wrong think.

And now Elon is promising the second shoe is about to drop: AI-driven abundance will make money as “free” as sex became in the 1970s. Both of evolution’s primary carrots — mating and resource acquisition suddenly cost almost nothing.

Weinstein’s ice-cold question: When producing and protecting actual children is no longer the central organizing principle of adult life… and when creating wealth is no longer required for status, security, or attracting a mate…What is left to give a human life direction, meaning, and structure?

Are we about to become a species that invents bigger and bigger dragons to slay just to feel alive? Or do we drift into total listlessness? This 3:52 clip is genuinely haunting.

Watch it all the way through, then tell me — honestly — does this explain the absolute intensity we’re seeing in culture right now, or is Bret completely missing something?

Real answers only. Quote-post if it hits you in the chest like it hit me.
