To the Zelensky administration and their fans who accuse Russia of committing genocide, the International Court of Justice (ICJ) is not biting. In Ukraine vs Russian Federation  “Allegations of Genocide under the Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide”, Russia has denied the accusations and  made counter-claims. Regardless of whatever Russia has done or not done, anyone who has been half-following the party knows the stunts Ukraine has pulled sin

Pope Leo XIII (b. 2 March 1810 – d. 20 July 1903), born Gioacchino Vincenzo Raffaele Luigi Pecci, began his pontificate on 20 February 1878. His papacy is the fourth longest in the history of the Church. He is known for having composed the Prayer to Archangel St Michael and for the encyclical “ Humanum Genus ” on freemasonry published on 20 April 1884. The encyclical “ Rerum Novarum ” was published on 15 May 1891. It is subtitled “On Capital and Labor” or “On the Condition of

Defenseless country with strict gun laws to have stricter gun laws so that it can be more defenseless.

London, UK – In the aftermath of Miss Finland 2024 Sarah Dzafce being stripped of her title for making the Asian “slant eyes” gesture, a new beauty pageant has been proposed. The new competition will showcase how good looking the contestants are when doing slant eyes. “I think it’s important that we uphold the principle of universal tolerance and respect,” said Beth Horship, spokesperson for Miss World Slant Eyes, “and this contest is the perfect platform to celebrate freedom

Endor (GNS) – Rebel Leader Mon Mothma has confirmed that the recent follow-up strike on the Death Star was “perfectly appropriate” after receiving a briefing and viewing the classified video of the operation. Imperial senators have been questioning the legality of the strikes and demanding the video be declassified and released. Over a million imperial personnel died after the first strike on the massive battle station. When the Empire built a second Death Star around the moo

Los Angeles, CA – Matt Gutman, who as an ABC News correspondent, copped much criticism for calling Charlie Kirk’s alleged assassin’s messages “very touching” is set to join CBS. “It is a very touching move, we’re excited to have Matt join us,” said recently appointed CBS News editor-in-chief Bari Weiss. “We know he’ll continue with his high-quality homoerotic reporting, and attract the kind of audience who love to hear that kind of stuff.” Gutman seems equally aroused as the

Not bad sci-fi dystopian film based on the novel. The pacing suffers in the final act but it is an interesting premise. Looks good, nice set designs.

Low-budget indie film notwithstanding, the film is decently produced. The satirical ideas are there but not enough laughs.

A Chinese paper by C. Wei et al titled “ Research Progress of Nattokinase in Reducing Blood Lipid ” posted on 24 May 2025 reviews research regarding the positive effects natto  has on issues associated with cardiovascular disease. By the way, natto  can degrade spike proteins as well. The paper is about 18 pages, with the main text at about 15 pages. The remaining are references. Unlike many papers, the authors actually try to explain some background regarding natto  includi

Not bad even though it can be much better. Can look darker and grittier. Admittedly not the easiest short story to adapt, but at least the screenplay is written by the original author.

Camden, NJ – In the wake of the explosive recording of Campbell’s Company executive Martin Bally making derogatory comments about fake meat and minorities, the company has decided to release a new canned soup. Campbell’s has fired Bally but understands that the “public deserves better from our iconic brand”. The company is scheduled to release “Non-Racist Co-Exist Mystery Soup” which, according to the barely legible label, contains 65% cultured pork with the other 55% being c

Nashville, TN – An elementary school student is severely disappointed that he has been forbidden from rioting after finding out that French President Emmanuel Macron had allegedly put a hit on Candace Owens. “I don’t get it,” said George, 10, of Cabalsville Elementary School, “I would’ve thought that nowadays a white man trying to kill a black woman is like the near-perfect excuse to peacefully trash the place.” However, George is willing to consider an alternative view: “I g

Melbourne, Australia – A young woman has failed at the church band tryouts despite being technically awesome. “She’s got great voice control,” said Sheryl, one of the band leaders even though she herself can’t sing that well. According to Jason, another band leader, this female vocalist doesn’t lift her arms high enough either but that is an issue which can be fixed with “a little practice”. “She’s got good mic technique, which none of our current singers seem to manage and i

A study by M. Günther et al titled “ A calibration of nucleic acid (PCR) by antibody (IgG) tests in Germany: the course of SARS-CoV-2 infections estimated ” published on 13 October 2025 has worked out figures that confirm the PCR tests used during the plandemic weren’t very accurate. The paper is about 10 pages, with the main text at about 8 pages. The remaining are references. The study takes weekly data of PCR tests and IgG tests during the period March 2020 to 2021 in Germ

The US Department of War has issued a statement reassuring all Americans—North, Central and South—that the recently issued NOTAMS near Venezuela are part of the upcoming Thanksgiving and Christmas celebrations. “The NOTAMS are for all the fat turkeys that we intend to send to Venezuela,” said spokesman Vincent Bomdashiottau from the War Department, “because we love President Maduro and the cartels and we want our turkeys to get to them safely.” The effort is in recognition of

Entertaining series. Some visual elements are a bit jarring but generally well-produced. It is funny, but can be funnier. Tries a little too hard to be edgy. Grounded by the friendship between the two lead characters.

Starship Troopers  was first published as a two-part serial before being released as a novel in 1959. Written by Robert A. Heinlein, himself a navy veteran, this military sci-fi coming-of-age story covers Johnnie Rico’s basic training and early career in Mobile Infantry (M.I.). This review will make a few comparisons with the 1997 film directed by Paul Verhoeven with the screenplay written by Edward Neumeier. Is the film faithful to the book? More Yes than No. Like most if n

Journalist reports woman going overboard but nobody believes her. Nothing particularly interesting but is intriguing enough initially. Becomes laughable later.

A young woman wants revenge against her father via shogi. Characters lack complexity and some things are resolved too quickly, but it is well-produced with strongly established lead characters and the series is tight.

A counter-intelligence officer tries to find a mole. His wife is on the short list. Sounds boring but is a tight film with decent dramatic tension.

If you like the novel, then don’t expect too much. Christoph Waltz carries the show but the corporate and office satire and black comedy are missing. One wonders whether the writer understands or appreciates the source material.
