You heard the news straight from the Neimoidian’s mouth. We, the Trade Federation, have indeed made tactical strikes against the planet of Naboo. We’ve heard through the galactic grapevine that sentient creatures across the galaxy—Outer Rim included—have expressed concerns. And to that we say: Deal with it. Naboo’s brooding has kind of ticked us off; we’ve never really understood them, and they have natural resources we want (their plasma is unparalleled), so really, it was a foregone conclusion. Boom-boom, bang-bang, lasers go zwip-zwip-zwip. Roger-roger: We did the thing, now it’s done, and you’re welcome.
After Ted Cruz’s humiliation by Tucker Carlson, attention has focused on a top staffer of the self-proclaimed “leading defender of Israel in the United States Senate.” On June 18, former Fox host Tucker Carlson published a video which, though marketed as an interview, was more of a snuff film. Over the course of two hours, Carlson can be seen rhetorically disemboweling his debate opponent, US Senator Ted Cruz, on the politician’s determination to see the US attack Iran on Israel’s […]

In 1848, the Chartist Movement presented a petition to Parliament, demanding that all adult men, regardless of social position, be given the right to vote. This was not the first time it had presented its petition to Parliament. Indeed, this was the third and final time the petition would be roundly rejected. On this occasion, […]
Critics say mayoral candidate Zohran Mamdani’s plan to tax the rich would cause the wealthy to flee NYC — but research suggests otherwise.
Today, one of my economics students kindly shared with me the response she received from a well-known AI chatbot to a question she had posed: The most influential heterodox Swedish economist today is undoubtedly Lars Pålsson Syll, a leading critic of mainstream neoclassical economics and a prominent voice in Post-Keynesian, institutionalist, and pluralist economic thought. Here’s why he […]
To me, this all emphasises the importance of students’ questions. That’s why I celebrate students asking searching questions, the questions that arise from them not simply accepting what we say, but wanting to know why, and where it came from; the questions that might sound innocent but turn out to be deep. Incidentally, this is […]
Leaked war plans sent to the US NSC instructed Kiev to carry out “ISIS”-style drone attacks on Russian trains and rail bridges, foreshadowing a series of deadly Ukrainian attacks this May and June. A coterie of British and American academics advising the US National Security Council explicitly urged Ukraine adopt the tactics of ISIS in a detailed proposal for “anti-rail drone operations,” according to leaked documents reviewed by The Grayzone. The aggressive war plans recommended in the files eerily foreshadowed […]

Still have Drupal 7 (D7) website? That’s okay for now. But let’s be honest: in today’s threat landscape, security is not optional. With D7 reaching its official end-of-life, staying protected means relying on more than just luck or legacy systems. That’s where Extended Support comes in, and why it matters now more than ever.
Why security should be your #1 Priority
Cyber threats have evolved. So have regulations. Older platforms like D7 are prime targets if not properly maintained. Without official support, vulnerabilities go unpatched, and your organization could face:
- Data breaches or theft
- Damage to your brand reputation
- Compliance issues (GDPR, PCI, HIPAA, etc.)
- Unexpected downtime and recovery costs
- Technical problems (e.g. unsupported modules affecting your website’s SEO)
- Complete lack of updates
In short: no security = high risk.

The global financial press think they are finally on a winner (or should that be loser) when it comes to commentary about the Japanese economy. Over the last few years in the Covid-induced inflation, the Japanese inflation rate has now consolidated and it is safe to say that the era of deflation is over. Coupled…
