The Real State Of The Union Was On Full Display At Trump's Speech
Donald Trump’s speech before Congress taught us much about the state of the Union. At this time in history, the once majestic symbol of freedom is fractured. We’re a broken mess, and desperately in need of direction.

Thoughts on racism and world problems 2025
Thoughts on racism and world problems 2025 A personal appraisal of social problems worldwide I am by birth and ancestry, a white British male. I do not consider any person inferior to myself because of skin colour, racial origins, intellectual ability, gender, physical ability or age. I am happy with a doctor of Asian English background I vote for a lady of Asian English heritage. I shop at places owned by devote Muslims, I only care about the personality and integrity of the person I interrelate to.

British couple in their 70s arrested by Taliban.
British couple in their 70s arrested by Taliban. A British elderly couple, Peter Reynolds (79) and his wife Barbie (75) who dedicated 18 years of their lives to social and educational services in Afghanistan have been detained by the Taliban. The couple was arrested on February 1 while returning to their home in Bamiyan. Since then their children and family have received no clear updates about their condition causing immense concern among their loved ones. Peter and Barbie had been running various educational projects in Afghanistan since 2009 including five schools in Kabul and a training program for mothers and children in Bamiyan. Even after the Taliban's return to power in 2021 when most foreigners and NGO employees left the country the couple chose to stay. Their reason was simple they could not abandon Afghanistan in its time of need.

"TAKE OUT THE NAZIS". Content Warning.
I created this concept in my brain today as I watched the news of tryanny n America. WHERE IS OUR HERO? I edited this short film four times, creating multiple tunes from dividing my prose into 4 parts. I had to express my disdain for people that are just kicking back saying, "What can we do" It's their government." NO, IT IS OUR GOVERNMENT, THE PEOPLE'S GOVERNMENT."

The New Philosophy of the Modern United States of America. Top Story - February 2025.
Preamble: We the people of the United States of America hereby declare that we do not, generally speaking, approve of philosophy. It typically requires deep thought and critical self examination, two things we are very much against. In fact the entire new philosophy of the modern United States of America can best be thought of as an anti-philosophy. If there is a thing that the international community or any group or body or persons that we are against is for, or thinks is useful and important, then we stand united against it. If we are against philosophy, then how can we use it to describe our beliefs? you may ask. Please see Maxims 6 and 13 for a more detailed explanation, but basically it is because we are always free to suspend or ignore previously stated positions or long held beliefs at any time, for any reason, with no justification required or given. It is critically important that the readers of this philosophy understand it only applies to the extent we say it does, when we say it does, and if we ever change our minds about any of it, we will be sure to let you know or not. There is nothing you can do about it in any case so we probably won’t bother. We will of course hold you accountable for everything we say here so reader beware.

Women's Work Hidden by Patriarchy and Capitalism: Honoring Historical Craftsmanship Contributions
We exist in a time when the gender pay gap is expanding. Recent studies indicate that women earn less than men, and the pandemic has exacerbated the pay gap in various nations. This disparity continues because there are fewer women in high-paying leadership roles and because women predominantly work in lower-paying industries. Yet, there are even more subtle and harsh reasons contributing to the gender pay gap. Historically, women’s work has been undervalued, resulting in unequal pay for comparable jobs between genders. Although this practice is gradually decreasing, it still exists.
