Some Like It Hothouse Unleashing Subsurface Strategic Energy Assets To Achieve Unmanageable Climate Outcomes February 14, 2026   |   Read Online   Presented by Eisvogel Thanks to the rapid insertion of nearly two trillion tons of industrial greenhouse pollution into the atmosphere, the planet is heating faster than at any time in at least three million years . The risks of self-reinforcing feedbacks pushing “the climate system past a point of no return, committing the planet to substantially higher long-term temperatures, even if emissions are later reduced” are rising daily. In “ the risk of a hothouse Earth trajectory ,” Oregon State climate scientists William J. Ripple , Christopher Wolf , and Jillian W. Gregg , with European climate scientists Johan Rockström , Katherine Richardson , Nico Wunderling , Thomas Westerhold , and Hans Joachim Schellnhuber caution that “we may be approaching a perilous threshold, with rapidly dwindling opportunities to prevent d...

What magic reveals about the mind: the neuroscience of illusion   Words: Andrew Cattanach You are watching very closely.  The coin rests in the magician’s open hand.  She wants you to see it, to appreciate that it’s a real coin, sitting plainly on her open palm.  She is, at least for now, demonstrably honest, inviting your trust.  There is no rush, no flourish, no attempt to pull your gaze elsewhere, just a hand carefully closing over a coin.  But when the hand opens again, the coin is gone.  There’s a particular kind of awe in watching even the simplest magic trick: a quiet buzz in the brain, a faint physical tingle, the sense that you’ve just seen something out of the ordinary.  You understand perfectly well that the coin is a material object that cannot evaporate or teleport.  And you probably anticipated its disappearance...

  Thinly Veiled Threats to all the Epstein Victims and Survivors and their Families… Dear Rosemary, I understand how some of these claims/comments may tax the credulity of even the most open-minded person – it is exactly the tagline/image with the occasional blog/link/video that I was referring to as having had a major impact – as relayed to me by colleagues who keep a record of who has accessed and perused what and when, and of others they may have communicated with about or copied to…  Thus, I can confidently assure you that there are many millions who view these ‘tweets’ on Blue Sky @JamesCMorrow.bsky.social, and many have spent some considerable time looking at them…       Note that I do not play games – although I do, at times, set puzzles for serious purposes… The image of the well-known Newscaster Savannah Guthrie and her mother was placed upon my Blue Sky feed at 0822 on the 5 th , and it related to threats to the lives of victims ...

In the Department of Justice’s apparently transparent release of the Epstein files, the perpetrator’s name is redacted whilst the victim’s name, contact details and testimony are exposed – making her ordeal public whilst breaking the link between the perpetrator and victim…   But the perpetrator knows the link and so now has a strong motivation to silence the victim as quickly as possible – such as by threatening her and her family…      Mohamed-al-Fayed.blogspot.com             

  Compromised and Kompromat…   In general, the details of the men are redacted whilst those of many of the girls – now women – are exposed…   Is there a pattern here, and what about the other three million items?         Mohamed-al-Fayed.blogspot.com    

  The Consequences of Obstructing, Concealing, Denying or Downplaying the Impact of Fossil Fuel Consumption on Climate Change and Biodiversity Loss   Those who obstruct, conceal, deny or downplay the impact of fossil fuel consumption on climate change and biodiversity loss will be directly responsible for the loss of many billions of lives…    @JamesCMorrow.bsky.social  WhatsUpDox.blogspot.com  

Dear Bill, I wanted to alert you to the recent 14 page publication of the UK government’s National Security Assessment of the threat to UK security from global biodiversity loss: https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/nature-security-assessment-on-global-biodiversity-loss-ecosystem-collapse-and-national-security , and a useful summary from the Guardian: https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2026/jan/20/biodiversity-collapse-threatens-uk-security-intelligence-chiefs-warn . However, this appears to be a deliberately less frightening version of the original report…  See: https://www.businessgreen.com/news/4524657/government-accused-suppressing-report-warning-catastrophic-climate-risks …       Thought for food (and water)?        Yours with best wishes, James
