EU funding for the UNRWA, links to terrorism and the need for investigation and alternatives
Last year, the Israeli Government accused more than a dozen of UNRWA’s Gaza employees of involvement in the 7 October 2023 atrocities. UNRWA supports the relief and human development of Palestinian refugees and is supported by the EU[3]. Does the Commission plan to investigate the actual use of EU funds by UNRWA? Will the Commission stop financing organisations and agencies that contribute to terrorism? Is the Commission considering funding the EU Agency for Asylum instead of the problem-ridden UNRWA?

How Are Memory and Sleep Related?
Here's what you need to know about memory, sleep, and the cognitive benefits of getting enough rest. Scientists call this process memory consolidation.5To understand how memory consolidation works, it’s first necessary to understand that our brains don’t store every piece of information related to a specific memory in the same place. How are memory consolidation and sleep related? Certain chronic illnesses and medical conditions, such as restless leg syndrome, arthritis pain, or sleep apnea, can interrupt our sleep. Pain causes poor sleep, and poor sleep worsens pain.

LEGO Pitched the Brilliant LEGO Horizon Adventures to Sony
Still can’t get my head around bringing this to Switch but not PS4. I also think it’s funny how this comes to switch quietly to the journalists downplaying Sony looking outside their console base more and more. Sure they are doing it slower than Xbox. Yet Phil Spencer got ripped on here for when he said games will be distributed differently in the future. If i remember correctly it was said on here that he should speak for his own brand and not the “winning brand” that won’t do that and before everyone jumps on me and just say’s it’s only a Lego game.

Trump Steals Spotlight While Harris Avoids Al Smith Dinner Drama
Trump Steals Spotlight While Harris Avoids Al Smith Dinner Drama The divide between Trump and Harris deepens at New York's annual charity gala as political tensions resurface. Donald Trump and Kamala Harris were both present—a bit of a stretch—at the recent Alfred E. Smith Memorial Foundation Dinner, but their attendance took different forms. Trump took the stage for nearly half an hour, employing the dinner's tradition of lighthearted jest, whereas Harris opted for the usual course of sending out pre-recorded remarks. Held annually to raise funds for Catholic charities, the Al Smith Dinner has been traditionally dominated by bipartisan fun, where attendees often let loose with comedic jabs at each other. The Al Smith Dinner didn’t just represent two candidates meeting around charity; it embodied the kind of political face-off reflective of something greater as America inches toward the 2024 election.

Performative Politics is Weak Sauce for Disaster Relief
It seems the modern day GOP also favors performance over productivity when it comes to disaster relief. FEMA personnel on the ground are actively coordinating with local officials, conducting damage assessments, and helping individuals apply for disaster assistance programs. Federal assistance for those affected by the hurricanes includes $722 million to support survivors with housing repairs, personal property replacement and other essential recovery efforts. Such false claims are part of a wave of misinformation that has hampered hurricane recovery efforts across the Southeast. They do succeed at distracting people form getting help they deserve – help from a government that actually cares, and wants to do the work that performative MAGA GOP politicians now abhor.
