The image depicts a quaint village scene during twilight. In the foreground, a red British telephone booth stands prominently on the right side, with a sign above it reading "Car Park and Garden Dog Friendly." Adjacent to the booth, a sign with the name "Volunteer Arkell's" features an illustration of a man in a military uniform. The background showcases a row of traditional stone and brick houses with sloped roofs, typical of rural English architecture. A black van is parked on the left side of the road, and power lines stretch across the sky. The sky is a gradient of blue and pink hues, with the moon visible in the distance. The scene is illuminated by soft lighting, suggesting the time is either dawn or dusk.

Inside Viktor Orbán’s failure to achieve his demographic goal
The Prime Minister has long said that he would like to grow the population of Hungary without bringing in immigrants. In recent years, however, not only has the number of births fallen, but the number of people leaving the country has also soared. According to a comprehensive data analysis by Direkt36, many young people left as well, which poses huge risks for the country.

Donald Trump gets immunity for official acts, but Wisconsin judge Hannah Dugan doesn't. The Milwaukee County Circuit Judge was arrested in April over allegedly taking Eduardo Flores-Ruiz through a jury door instead of a main exit so that he would avoid ICE, and charged with "knowingly concealing a person for whose arrest a warrant and process had been issued." Dugan pleaded not guilty, arguing immunity from criminal prosecution for judicial acts, but U.S. Magistrate Judge Nancy Joseph rejected this. Here's more from Adam Klasfeld at @allrisenews.

"As the clock ticks down toward a possible TikTok ban in the U.S., creators, brands, and fans alike are forced to confront a question that once felt hypothetical: What happens when your entire platform could disappear?
For Jessica Hawk, also known as @myteacherface—one of the app’s standout creators known for her teacher and child-free by choice content—the stakes go far beyond lost views. TikTok has been more than a digital stage; it’s been a career builder, a business engine, and a creative community all rolled into one. Now, with uncertainty looming, creators like @myteacherface are being asked to pivot quickly, think strategically, and reimagine what their future looks like—possibly without the very platform that launched them.
In this candid interview, @myteacherface talks about how she is approaching this high-stakes moment. We dig into her strategy for transitioning to other platforms, the ripple effects on brand partnerships and income streams, and how the creator economy might shift in the wake of a ban. She also reflects on the challenges and opportunities that come with moving a deeply engaged community to a new digital home—and what content creation might look like in a post-TikTok world for Americans.
This isn’t just a story about losing an app—it’s about navigating change in real time, staying creative under pressure, and finding new ways to thrive when governments and algorithms pull the rug out from under us."

A difficult but necessary post. The full report of the Dinah Project is out, showing systematic sexual violence by Hamas used on the 7 October massacres (and on hostages afterwards). The many incidents in six different locations suggest this was intentional, not incidental - sexual violence as a weapon.
Clear patterns of sexual violence emerge from the findings, including victims found partially or fully naked with their hands tied, sometimes to trees or poles; evidence of gang rape followed by executions; and severe genital violence. Sexual abuse also continued in captivity — released hostages reported forced nudity, physical and verbal sexual harassment, sexual attacks and threats of forced marriage.
More harrowing details in the piece: ynetnews.com/article/sjkasv5rx…
Sadly, this report was necessary. Too many people are denying sexual violence was part of these attacks, people who in other circumstances say #BelieveHer. Perhaps it complicates their simplistic 'good guys and bad guys' view of the world, clashing with the narrative of 7 October as an act of liberation.
Needless to say - except on social media - this doesn't justify the ongoing horrific death and destruction in Gaza. (And if that's what you thought I was getting at, please go away.)

Once again, many of us will agree with the position taken by the Scottish Greens;
as Maggie Chapmen MSP says:
'For a UK Prime Minister to sit there and talk about his shared values with this President should set off alarm bells in every institution and every voter in this country. Cosying up to a racist, misogynistic, climate-wrecking authoritarian like Donald Trump is the last thing we should be doing'!
yet here we are....

Especially the expression "family values", which was used, should be a red-red-red flag. Look at how the Trump government, together with Christian Nationalists and right-wing conservatives propose (and gradually install their view on) family values.
UK - beware.
