Hipsters 'unnerve local' in Sweden, get police called on them
Once officers arrived at the scene, they quickly realized they weren't dealing with terrorists at all. Instead, all they saw was “a bunch of happy bearded guys,” Bearded Villains member Andreas Fransson told the Jönköpings-Posten. He
added that both the group and the cops had a good laugh about the
situation.

Coincidence Or Conspiracy? Investigating If Believers Really See So Much Secret Design
"Although negative findings are usually unpopular in scientific
journals, we think our results are valuable because they contradict a
widely held and quite plausible idea of what leads to conspiracist
thinking. By ruling out a very straightforward and cognitively simple
mechanism, we narrow down the range of explanations for the popularity
of conspiracy theories."

#killallwhitemen “Diversity” Officer Charged by London Police
“I, an ethnic minority woman, cannot be racist or sexist towards
white men because racism and sexism describe structures of privilege
based on race and gender and therefore women of colour and minority
genders cannot be racist or sexist, since we do not stand to benefit
from such a system.”

Western Women Will Be Sacrificed At The Altar Of Mass Migration
What on earth do we expect from the bulk of men who grow up under these rules? How will they view women, and rape? And what on earth do we expect to happen when they come en masse to Europe? They will suddenly become feminists en route? No,
they bring this misogyny with them, and it’s a misogyny that Europe’s
women are about to become very familiar with. Migrants leave behind many
things when they leave their country. Their beliefs are not among them.

That Awkward Moment When One Nobel Peace Prize Winner Bombs Another
Doctors Without Borders won the Nobel Peace Prize in 1999. President
Obama was awarded his in 2009. As Commander-in-Chief of the military
that bombed the Doctors Without Borders hospital, this makes Obama
perhaps the first Nobel Peace Prize winner to bomb another Nobel Peace
Prize winner.

The World's Silliest Empire
The Russian «Вы хоть понимаете теперь, чего вы натворили?»
can be more accurately translated as “How can you even now fail to
understand what a mess you have made?” Words matter: this is not how one
talks to a superpower before an assembly of the world's leaders; this
is how one scolds a stupid and wayward child. In the eyes of the whole
world, this made the Empire look rather silly.

How might contact with nature promote human health?
That physical activity is not consistently related to greener environments suggests that our conceptualization of health-promoting greenspaces should center at least as much on oases as on ball fields,
and on greenspaces for walking and quiet contemplation as much as on
recreation areas. The findings here suggest that such oases should
incorporate plants — especially trees, soil, and water (preferably
moving) — and should be designed to induce feelings of deep relaxation,
awe, and vitality. Providing these green oases, especially in areas
where health risks are high and landscaping is sparse, might be an
inexpensive, powerful public health intervention and address persisting
health inequalities.
