👼🏻23 days old. They didn’t even have time to register her. A Russian shell killed her together with her parents and brother. Sofia Konyshcheva was 23 days old. She was born on July 22, 2023, in the village of Shyroka Balka in the Kherson region. Her parents didn’t even have time to officially register her. On August 13, the Russians opened fire. The family ran to a neighbor’s basement — they didn’t make it. The shell exploded right in the yard. Sofia, her mother Olesya, her father Dmytro, and her 11-year-old brother Artem were killed. The boy kept calling for his mother for several more hours. Eternal memory. #StopRussia #KhersonRegion #SofiaKonyshcheva

Hmm
Tbilisi, 1975. The Soviet Ministry of Highways was built like a stack of giant blocks floating over a hillside, with the forest left growing underneath. Architect George Chakhava called it the Space City. Today it's a bank's headquarters. Brutalism at its boldest. Masterpiece or monster?

I'm British, and turned eighteen in 2005. I have NEVER had to wait more than a minute or two to cast my vote. Not only that, but if there were the merest suggestion that certain voters might have to wait longer for demographic or political reasons, it would be a national scandal. – at Cardiff, Wales
This is a line to vote in Mississippi. I was just on the Ole Miss campus today and a bunch of Republicans told me they’re voting blue this year. They’re fed up. Something to watch!

Mataron a mi madre por ser demasiado mayor para ser esclava sexual. Mataron a todos mis hermanos por negarse a convertirse al islam. Fui violada y torturada todos los días durante 6 meses. Así es la vida de los no musulmanes en Oriente Medio. -Nadia Murad

🔥 Putin is rationing air and calling it diesel. Exports to America are now under quota. Ukraine is hitting the refineries again. Novokuibyshevsk and Ufa are burning. American pump prices won’t budge. The deal is dead before the first tanker arrives.

If you are a decent and educated human being, there is no way you support russia. You know what russia is. If you still support russia there’s something seriously wrong with your head. You’re mentally ill.

Latvia has just assumed the Presidency of the United Nations Security Council for the first time. On this day in 1919, Latvian Colonel Krišjānis Berķis signed the order to launch a counteroffensive against German-Russian forces. After liberating Riga, Latvian forces went on to achieve full victory in the Latvian War of Independence, securing the sovereignty of their young republic in international law. 107 years later, this now enables Latvia to take a world leading role in standing up for the sovereign rights of all nations to exist in peace and security under international law.

I still don’t understand why people living in the West who hate the West refuse to accept Putin’s offer of immigrating to their favorite right-wing utopia.

Jannicke Mikkelsen, Norway’s first astronaut, is auctioning her “Space Rolex” to raise money for Fritt Ukraina, a Norwegian charity whose aid to Ukraine includes vehicles and equipment for air defense units. In April 2025, during the Fram2 space mission, Mikkelsen saw a Russian ballistic missile heading toward Ukraine. In August she traveled to Kryvyi Rih as a Fritt Ukraina volunteer and visited the sites of Russian strikes: a business hit the day she saw the attack from space, where four people were killed, and a playground where a Russian missile killed 20 people, nine of them children, two days later. “I wanted to see where the missile hit. What kind of missile it was. Who it hit,” she said. The watch, a titanium Rolex Deepsea Challenge that traveled around the Earth on Fram2, goes under the hammer at Nyborgs Auksjoner in Oslo on 11 November. Everything above its original price goes to Fritt Ukraina. Mikkelsen also wants the auction to draw attention to Ukraine’s need for more air defense to protect civilians. 📷 Fritt Ukraina 🔗 frittukraina.no/2026/10/31/j…

Trump: “People – stupid people – wanted me to put sanctions on Russia.” The whole world hopes that a decisive majority of Americans understand that a vote for a Republican on Tuesday is a vote for Putin.

Forklaring på situasjonen i Polen
Poland in 2026. A house divided. In 2023, PIS government lost power after 8 years. Eight years of changes which if called controversial would be an understatement, encompassing all areas of life. One of them is the chief of Constitutional Order - the Constitutional Tribunal. 🧵

For years, researchers claimed 400 million+ people contract Long COVID, it has 200+ symptoms, and 90% never recover Our @PNAS paper shows these findings are incorrect b/c of bad study design. Symptoms are real, but most due to other illness, not COVID pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.26…

cc: @jaredkushner you soulless fucking ghoul. This is on you, motherfucker, and that goon monkey Witkoff, and your soon-to-be-wormmeat FIL. I hope some Ukrainian dad finds you one day, you Putin whore.
A father screams in anguish beside the body of his dead daughter. Two 15-year-old girls were killed in a russian attack on the center of Chernihiv, Ukraine. Dozens are injured, including four children aged 10, 16, and 17, and a 10-month-old baby girl. Meanwhile, Trump has ordered Ukriane not to hit russian oil refineries, so that russia could make billions and build more rockets and drones to kill more Ukrainians.
