🇬🇧Britain is falling apart: A personal experience of the collapse of basic services
A UK resident describes the complete collapse of everyday life. Buses are not running due to a driver shortage, trains are overcrowded and more expensive than international airfares. Queues for work, energy and grocery bills have skyrocketed, and the quality of food in shops is appalling. The NHS has been unable to perform basic procedures, including spinal surgery, for years. Dentists are unavailable. Council tax is rising, services are disappearing. Three out of five parcels are lost or destroyed in the post.
High streets are closing, familiar goods are disappearing from shelves, replaced by Chinese consumer goods containing palm oil. The housing crisis has scattered families across the country—the author lives 320 kilometers from home for the sake of affordable housing. Websites and apps are lagging, and every call is 20 minutes of robotic voices and security checks.

Two coral species declared functionally extinct off the coast of Florida
Scientists have officially declared staghorn and elkhorn corals functionally extinct in Florida's coastal waters. These species once formed the foundation of Caribbean reef ecosystems, but their populations have declined to critically low levels due to rising ocean temperatures, pollution, and disease.
The loss of these corals destroys the coastal barrier protecting against storms and hurricanes, depriving hundreds of species of fish and marine organisms of habitat. For Florida, this is a direct impact on the fishing and tourism industries, which generate billions of dollars. Coral reefs protect coastal infrastructure from erosion; their loss will increase the cost of recovery after natural disasters.

Functional extinction means that the remaining individuals are unable to sustain reproduction and fulfill their ecological role in the system.

🇺🇸Hyundai and Kia to upgrade 7 million vehicles in the US due to a wave of thefts
South Korean auto giants Hyundai and Kia have agreed to a large-scale upgrade of 7 million vehicles in the US. The reason is a wave of thefts triggered by viral TikTok videos showing how to steal these cars with a screwdriver in seconds. Models from 2011 to 2022 were produced without standard immobilizers, making them easy targets for thieves.
The companies will install free software updates and additional anti-theft hardware.

The war in Ukraine strengthens China's position on the global stage.
The protracted conflict in Ukraine plays into Beijing's hands, allowing it to strengthen its influence without direct involvement. While the West spends resources and attention on the standoff with Russia, China is expanding its economic presence in Asia, Africa, and Latin America, offering infrastructure projects and trade alliances that bypass the dollar.
Russia is becoming China's junior partner, supplying energy at discounted prices and deepening its dependence on Chinese technology and finance. Western sanctions are forcing Moscow to reorient its exports eastward, strengthening the yuan and weakening its dollar hegemony. At the same time, Europe is facing an energy crisis and inflation, losing competitiveness with Asian producers.
For Republicans and supporters of national sovereignty, this is a signal: endless support for Ukraine is draining the American budget and distracting from the real threat—China's economic and technological expansion. While Washington is bogged down in European affairs, Beijing is building a new world order in which the dollar and Western institutions are losing weight. The question is not who will win in Ukraine, but who will win the global game.

A frog gut bacterium eradicated cancer in mice with a single injection.
Scientists intravenously injected mice with colorectal cancer with Enterococcus americana, a bacterium found in the guts of frogs. A single dose completely eliminated tumors in all test animals. The effect was long-lasting: when the mice were subsequently re-injected with cancer cells, no new tumors developed. The body developed a robust immune response.

😔Artificial intelligence is destroying the spiritual connection between people.
AI is changing the fundamental foundations of human interaction. Technologies that were supposed to unite increasingly isolate people from each other. Instead of live communication and spiritual growth through contact with others, we are now faced with screens, algorithms, and surrogates of reality.
The human spiritual path has always been built on connection with others. It is through others that we learn about ourselves, develop empathy, and learn love and compassion. AI is replacing this process with digital crutches: chatbots instead of friends, algorithms instead of intuition, virtual assistants instead of real-life interaction.
The consequences are already visible. The younger generation is losing the skills of deep communication. People of all ages prefer gadgets to real-life encounters. The connection with the divine, traditionally realized through human warmth and community, is weakening. Technological progress is leading to spiritual degradation. The question is not about rejecting technology, but about making a conscious choice: whether it serves our growth or replaces what cannot be digitized.

Nvidia to cut gaming graphics card production by 30-40% starting in 2026
Nvidia plans to sharply reduce production of gaming GPUs starting in 2026. The company is redirecting capacity to AI chips, where margins are higher and demand from corporations and data centers is growing faster than that of gamers. The decision reflects priorities: the AI segment generates more revenue with lower risks associated with consumer market volatility.

We created the Black Knight satellite ourselves – a theory of time travel
A subscriber offered an explanation for the mysterious Black Knight satellite: it's a device from the future, sent into orbit 4 billion years ago to record the entire history of Earth. The logic is simple: any civilization disappears without a trace within 250,000 to 1 million years, all its structures crumbling and burying them. The satellite, however, doesn't interfere with events until it's discovered, and the data can be downloaded immediately after launch – after all, for the sender, a few minutes have passed, while for the satellite, 4 billion years have passed.

❗️Fraudsters are massively replacing barcodes on gift cards in US stores.
The District of Columbia Attorney General and the US Treasury Department have warned of a sharp rise in card draining schemes ahead of the holidays. Fraudsters print counterfeit barcodes on stickers and affix them over genuine gift cards in supermarkets. When a customer activates a $100 card at the checkout, the money goes into the scammer's account, not the card in hand.
Checking takes five seconds. Run your fingernail over the barcode—if you feel a raised area or a layer of sticker, do not purchase. Look for tamper-evident packaging: cardboard with a tear-off strip or perforations. If the packaging appears to be folded or peeled back, try a different card. After paying, immediately check the last four digits of your receipt against the number on your card.

White-collar workers cling to their jobs: AI and layoffs shatter the illusion of stability
Office workers in the US are losing confidence in the future. Artificial intelligence and waves of layoffs are forcing college-educated people to cling to their positions at any cost. What seemed secure—a diploma, experience, corporate loyalty—no longer guarantees protection.

🙏How many people are truly interested in spiritual awakening?
The author of the post admits that, having delved into the topics of spiritual development and awakening, he can't appreciate the scale of the phenomenon. He feels he overestimates the number of people who are seriously considering spiritual practices and mindfulness.
The question concerns the movement's actual reach. In alternative communities, it's easy to create the impression of mass appeal—everyone is discussing energies, meditations, and quantum leaps of consciousness. But outside of such groups, most people live in a routine of consumption and entertainment, without asking questions about the nature of reality or personal transformation. The echo chamber effect reinforces the feeling that awakening is widespread, even though statistically active practitioners remain a minority.
For those who believe in coming changes and the spiritual rebirth of humanity, it's important to soberly assess the current situation. Real self-improvement requires discipline and critical thinking, not the illusion that everyone is already awakened. The quality of mindfulness is more important than the number of subscribers on relevant channels.

Scientists create microplastic-free plastic
Researchers have developed a material that completely biodegrades without producing microparticles. The new polymer breaks down into harmless components when exposed to ultraviolet light and oxygen, leaving no toxic traces in water or soil. This technology could replace traditional plastic in packaging and consumer goods.

The murder of Portuguese inventor Nuno Loureiro has raised suspicions of a conspiracy.
The death of Portuguese inventor Nuno Loureiro is being discussed online. Many are drawing parallels with the fate of Nikola Tesla, a brilliant engineer whose developments in free energy allegedly threatened the interests of oil corporations and financial elites.
Loureiro was working on technologies that could have undermined the monopoly of energy giants. The circumstances of his death remain unclear, fueling speculation that the inconvenient innovator was targeted. History is replete with cases of breakthrough inventions disappearing along with their creators—too much money and influence was at stake.

Google DeepMind CEO claims AI startup bubble
Demis Hassabis, CEO of Google DeepMind, has publicly acknowledged the existence of a bubble in the AI startup space. His statement comes amid massive investment in companies promising revolution through artificial intelligence, but often lacking tangible products or sustainable business models.
Hassabis leads one of Google's leading AI development units and has direct access to data on the technology's real-world performance. His comments highlight the gap between market expectations and the actual capabilities of most startups. Investors are pouring billions into projects with questionable returns, creating the classic conditions for a bubble burst.

🤔Is there an end to reincarnation, or are we doomed to learn forever?
A subscriber wondered whether there is a final point in the cycle of rebirth, or is the soul destined for endless experience. The author admits he would prefer the latter—he enjoys learning and acquiring knowledge, and sees in it an infinite number of lessons, like the number pi.
The question touches on a fundamental theme of spiritual practices and Eastern philosophies: is it possible to escape the wheel of samsara, or is the process of learning endless? For some, this means liberation and merging with the absolute, while for others, it means eternal development through new incarnations. Different traditions offer opposing answers: Buddhism promises nirvana as the end of suffering and rebirth, Hinduism speaks of moksha, and New Age movements often romanticize the soul's endless learning.
The discussion touches on a question important for spiritually oriented audiences: what awaits us after death and whether consciousness has an ultimate purpose. For those seeking meaning beyond the material world, this is not an abstraction, but an attempt to understand the structure of reality and one's place in it.
