I have published a new report on the lives of my #LGBTQ refugee friends in East Africa. One of their main challenges is homophobic and transphobic violence inside the camp.

Kurosawa on watching Solaris with Tarkovsky
We really need to reflect more on the role science and innovation play in our societies. It seems we have deliberately decided to have little or no control. The consequences are dire.

Mark Knell argues that the labour-market effects of artificial intelligence will depend less on technical capability than on how societies reorganize tasks, skills, firms, and institutions around it.

Large Man Abroad's reflections on America's loss of its soul is well worth watching.
Dear American friends, you probably have a chance to save your country, but you are running out of time.

Found this over at my local pet store. I just had to give it to my dog.

Toolmaking was considered human only. This proved our supremacy. But now that we have even seen cows use tools, how do we reframe our relationship with nature?

Back in 2019 I got a lot of flack for calling Trump a fascist. We have now come to a point where most reasonably informed people see the truth. Hiding this truth only helps them.

To anyone reading this, LGBTQ Africans aren’t an “agenda” or “Western influence” we are your neighbors. Your children. Your colleagues. We are Africans, fully and completely, and we deserve to live without fear. We’re naturally born like this, no law shall stop or erase our existence.

I am considering canceling my Washington Post subscriptions. First they sacked a lot of their investigative reporters. Now they are sing AI to determine how much you can pay?!

Almost no new donations have come in here recently, they are very needed for shelters, food and medicine. Here @nakafeeroswabulah.bsky.social talks about it once more in a recent video.

I am not against "family values". I simply think those values should be based on compassion and inclusion and not hatred of those you do not understand.

A chart is titled "2026 Olympics: Final Winter Olympics Medal Count." A table lists the top five countries — Norway, United States, Italy, Germany, and Japan— with their respective gold, silver, bronze and total medal counts. Norway leads with 41 medals total.
From @theathletic.com: More than 200 athletes competed across 16 sports at the 2026 Winter Olympics. Norway dominated, breaking its own record with 18 gold medals and claiming the most medals overall.
Here are the full and final standings: www.nytimes.com/athletic/int...
New poll shows Trump is severely underwater on the two main reasons people voted for him: the economy and immigration.
And on top of that, he and Republicans are in deep denial.

A MOTHER JONES SCOOP! New details from Epstein files reveal Lutnick had a years-long business tie with the sex offender. This challenges his claim he had minimal contact with Epstein. The two were involved in a deal for six years, and an email shows they discussed it. @nlanard.bsky.social
"The US deported a gay asylum-seeker to a third country where homosexuality is illegal."
We are living in dark times. I am glad there are still good people out there who are bringing some much needed light.

New report on the situation in the camp in South Sudan. New LGBTQ refugees have arrived from Kenya and they need roof over their heads.

1. I am leading a group of Ugandan LGBTQ refugees in a camp in South Sudan - 100 souls, half of which are children.
I do not like asking for help, but the truth is that we do not have enough for food, medicine and other necessities.
Any amount helps!

This says it and it’s exactly what it is….
Over at the magazine I am editor of there is a discussion regarding Rudolf Steiner and a local #Steiner college. Steiner was a speculative occultist. But he was also an interesting philosopher. So what do you do?

There is this saying: "The Devil eats his own". I am reminded of this when I see Trump and his serfs collapse i fear and confusion as his MAGA rhetoric stops working. There is still hope for American democracy. Keep on fighting!
I have posted a new post on the needs of my LGBTQ-friends in the Kakuma camp in Kenya. We need to get them out of there due to harassments and threats.
