In today’s whirlwind episode (July 21, 2025), we dive into a world trying to look busy while standing still. China hosts the 25th China–EU Summit, celebrating 50 years of diplomacy while nudging back at U.S. trade pressure. The ECB hits the brakes on rate cuts amid tariff tensions, and Singapore injects S$1.1B into its markets like it's vitamin B12 for finance.

Elsewhere, Japan's political shuffle doesn't shake markets, while the UK finally admits to a 2-year data breach that exposed nearly 19,000 Afghan asylum seekers. Turkey tries to revive its dusty Iraq oil pipeline, and Siobhan Haughey pulls out of the World Championships, reminding us that even elite swimmers can’t escape back problems.

It’s a day of stalled policies, patched pipelines, and passive-aggressive summits—all served with a satirical twist.

In today’s orbit-around-the-news (July 20, 2025), we cover a mix of absurd and inspiring global headlines. We start with Moon Day 2025, where the world celebrates Apollo’s legacy—while back on Earth, things get weirder. The Trump administration escalates the ‘War on Science’, RFK Jr. slashes vaccine advisory panels just as measles cases hit a 33-year high.

Meanwhile, the U.S. revokes visas of Brazilian Supreme Court justices, Trump touts the return of 10 Gaza hostages, and India completes a groundbreaking liver swap surgery. And yes—the IMF promises a sunnier economic forecast (again), because hope floats… even when reality sinks.

All that and more, packed with satire, updates, and side-eyes from every corner of the globe.

In today’s fiery edition (July 17, 2025), we break down the world’s hottest headlines—literally and figuratively. A massive blaze guts Tomorrowland’s main stage, just hours before kickoff. Over in the courts, Meta and Zuckerberg face an $8 billion reckoning over the Cambridge Analytica scandal. Meanwhile, G20 finance chiefs gather in Durban, minus the U.S., to hash out tariffs, capital costs, and global cooperation (or lack thereof).

Also in the mix: Trump preps a Pakistan visit, floods wreak havoc across South Asia, and a multibillion-dollar Canadian-Japanese deal collapses with a polite shrug.

Global chaos, corporate drama, and a healthy dose of dark humor—just another day on Earth.
