The Five Continents.
So, this is not some sort of AI generated photo, but it is a real existing building.
If you are ever in the city of Antwerp, be sure not to miss ‘The Five Continents’ an Art-Deco building colloquially known as ‘the boat house’ or ‘the little boat’ for it’s facade which has a balcony in the form of a ship.
Built in 1901 to the plans of architect Frans Smet-Verhas and commissioned by the boat builder Petrus Roeis, it was sold 2 years ago for funny money (a 2 and 6 zero’s) to a lawyer firm.

15 March 1938 | A Dutch Jew, Leo Samuel Drukker, was born in Amsterdam.

The abysmally low book sales for Utown in English has motivated me to give the webcomic a new push. If Oni won't promote the book on their end, I can still get people to read what I consider to be a very, very good story--for free, as a French and English webcomic.
Utown has a dedicated website that looks awesome and I would love if you checked it out. I did a massive update this week 😀
Thank you for writing that story! I think I still owe you an update:
- the printed book reached London after I had completed reading it online (shipping was perfect… I just could not stop reading!)
- after just a few days it ended up in my bag and flew to Italy
- two days ago it was passed to a dear friend (see attached documentation 😜)

Climate litigation - Environmental groups sound new alarm as fossil fuel lobby pushes for immunity theguardian.com/us-news/2025/m…
Nearly 200 groups urge Congress to reject fossil fuel industry immunity efforts, fearing long-term damage to climate lawsuits
“Lawmakers must decisively reject any attempt by the fossil fuel industry to evade accountability and ensure both justice today and the right of future generations to hold polluters responsible for decades of deception,” said the missive, which is addressed to the House minority leader, Hakeem Jeffries, and Senate minority leader, Chuck Schumer.
Fossil fuel companies have vied for such a get-out-of-jail-free card for years.

EPA takes aim at almost every major pollution rule in what environmentalists call act of ‘malice toward the planet’
...
“The Trump administration’s ignorance is trumped only by its malice toward the planet,” said Jason Rylander, legal director at the Center for Biological Diversity’s Climate Law Institute.
theguardian.com/environment/20…
“Come hell or high water, raging fires and deadly heatwaves, Trump and his cronies are bent on putting polluter profits ahead of people’s lives. This move won’t stand up in court. We’re going to fight it every step of the way.”

As Trump thaws ties, Russia has a new public enemy number one: Britain

Another day, another lie.
Trump falsely claims that a large group of Ukrainian soldiers are surrounded in Kursk, this is completely false, even according to Russians themselves.
