_Believe It or Not. NASA Study Finds the Arctic Melt Season Stopped Lengthening in 2010_

"A new paper, A recent stabilization in the lengthening of the Arctic sea ice melt season into a highly variable regime, from NASA Goddard and the University of Maryland, published in Communications Earth & Environment, reports that the Arctic sea ice melt season stopped getting longer around 2010. For the fourteen years from 2010 through 2023, it actually got slightly shorter."

_URGENT: A funny thing’s happening now that (almost) nobody gets mRNA jabs anymore_

FTA: In August, the Society of Actuaries issued its newest “Quarterly Mortality Monitoring Report for the U.S. Population.” They sure know how to name ‘em, those actuaries.

The report — based on official federal death totals — hasn’t gotten much notice.

It should.

Deaths in the United States fell a stunning 7 percent in winter 2026 compared to 2025, adjusted for age and population, the actuaries reported. People in their fifties had the largest drop, 8.4 percent.

Guess what else plunged last year?

If you said the number of Americans getting Covid jabs, you’re right!

«Many Americans told me: "Democrats aren't socialists. America will never be France." I want to answer that seriously, step by step.

Start with a simple observation. Look at what has gotten cheaper in America over the last 25 years: TVs, phones, software, clothes, toys. Now look at what has exploded: college tuition, healthcare, childcare, housing.

What separates the two lists? The first lives in competitive markets. The second is exactly where government is most involved: subsidies, mandates, licensing, zoning, regulation.»

"Vaccine hesitancy is NOT misinformation.
Scientific dissent is NOT disinformation.
Questioning public-health authorities is NOT a threat to public health.

NO international pandemic framework should undermine those fundamental principles."

From Krzysztof Szczawinski 🇵🇱@X:

I’m Polish. If France is your future, I come from the end of that road.

France shows you the slow version. We lived the full one – the version where the state doesn’t just take care of everything. It owns everything.

In Poland it arrived with Soviet bayonets. In America it would arrive by vote – slower, softer, with better slogans. But the destination is the same, and so is the mechanism.

It starts with prices. When the state decides what things should cost, prices stop telling the truth. A price is a message: this is scarce, this is wanted, make more of this. Abolish the message, and the whole economy goes deaf. So the shelves emptied – first of meat, then of almost everything.

Every Pole knew the joke. A man walks into a shop: "No meat?" The clerk: "No, sir. Here is no fish. No meat is across the street."

We queued for everything. People wrote their place in line on their palms and kept lists through the night. You waited years for a small car, and often more than a decade for an apartment. Not because Poles were lazy. Because nobody in the system had any reason to produce what we needed.

At work, we had another joke: we pretended to work, and they pretended to pay us.

And the promise of equality? It produced the most unequal system of all. The party elite had their own shops – Poles called them the shops behind the yellow curtains. Those with dollars shopped in special stores. Everyone else got the queue.

Then the system needed informers, because nobody believed in it anymore. Our neighbors were recruited to report on us. You never knew who was listening – the colleague, the friend, sometimes family. So we learned to live a double life: one language in public, another at home.

Those who spoke up got the wolf ticket: no job, no promotion, sometimes no university place for their children. Nobody needed to send them to prison. They just couldn’t live.

The newspapers reported record harvests while the shelves stood empty. Everyone knew. Nobody said it. That is what a society looks like when the lie becomes the system.

In 1950 we were about as rich as Spain. By 1989, Spain was twice as rich. That is what forty years of "fairness" cost us.

Today in America, the method is softer. Your neighbor won’t inform on you to the secret police. Someone will report your post, and you’ll be cancelled – no job, no account, no platform. Different tools, same machine.

We got out. Ten million of us joined Solidarity, and in 1989 a system that looked eternal collapsed. Since then, Poland has become one of the great success stories of Europe – because people were finally free to build.

But we still carry it. More than thirty years later, you can see it in the careful answers, the closed faces - the system leaves faster than the fear does. It takes generations to get out of it fully once you fall into that trap.

Nobody votes for the queue. Nobody votes for the informer. They come with the promise.

Trust me, you don’t want to go down that road.

_New Study Suggests Large Regions Of The Pacific Ocean Have Been Cooling For The Last 80 Years_

FTA: New research indicates there has been “cooling of the Pacific sector on decadal timescales during 1940-2020,” including robust cooling reaching -0.4°C per decade from 2005-2019 (even “exceeding -0.9°C per decade during 2005-2010”).

“…observations find a significant cooling of the South Pacific Ocean during 1979-2013”

“…cooling of the Pacific sector on decadal timescales during 1940-2020 in the reanalysis data”

"The genuine postwar recovery came in 1946 and 1947, when Truman (reluctantly, under pressure) slashed federal spending by +-40 percent. Prices adjusted. Veterans rejoined a labor market that could actually absorb them. Capital reallocated toward things people voluntarily chose to buy. Economists who predicted postwar collapse were wrong, because the state briefly stepped back and let markets function."
