World Bank signals slower growth in emerging markets, citing debt pressures and inflation. Long-term stability and structural resilience outweigh hype or short-term gains.

I am totally with Europe
They have to tread lightly.
Or risk another war.

"The big question for Europe is: when are you gonna fight back, guys?" ask former Obama staffers Tommy Vietor and Ben Rhodes.

EU clarifies AI transparency rules today. Firms adjusting reporting will see valuation impacts and investor scrutiny. Staying ahead means watching policy as closely as markets.

You know when you are in a movie and there are so many previews about movies on a bunch of different topics and you almost forget what movie you are there to see…that is what it feels like watching this trump speech (and really any trump speech)

The talk around new AI safety rules has me thinking about who actually benefits from tech growing this fast. Progress is great, but guardrails matter when the imbalance is already this sharp.

New Zealand has one, Canada has one, the United Kingdom has one — so why doesn't Australia have a national human rights act or charter?
The Australian government should seek to legislate a human rights act as soon as possible. Learn more ⤵️

Environmental collapse warnings — this decade feels like a crossroads. Hard to stay optimistic, but even harder to pretend the crossroads isn’t there. What level of super-denial is required to not see the crisis? #ClimateAction #RealTalk

EU just weakened the sustainability directives many hoped would hold big business accountable. When “competitiveness” trumps conscience, we lose more than regulations. Trump's callous stance on environment (and everything else) is spreading.

Everyone knows Norm Van Brocklin passed for 23,611 yards in his NFL career.
But who knew he also punted for an additional 22,413 yards?

Someone even newer than me. Looks formidable.
Retired from long drives and long marches, not from the cause. I’ve been organizing since ’74, and country miles won’t stop me now. If you need a friend in the fight for decency, kindness, and the common good — I’m right here.

In this country, when institutions meant to protect the weak get dismantled piece by piece, that’s a burden passed to ordinary people. We better be ready to carry it — gently, patiently, always humanely.

After a bushfire exposed an open-air waste dump containing asbestos at a Tasmanian iron ore plant, it was quietly buried without informing residents. The Environment Protection Authority warned the company about health risks, but not the public. #politas
