FUEL.

Jet fuel spot prices have increased by 140% since the Feb. 27, 2026, closure of the Strait of Hormuz following U.S.-Israeli strikes on Iran. This surge, driven by fears of a severe supply shortage for low-inventory refined products, has driven Asian prices to over $225 per barrel. 

Key Impacts of the Jet Fuel Surge:

Massive Price Jump: The spot price for jet kerosene rose 140% from a Feb. 27 close of $93.45 a barrel.

European Impact: In Europe, jet fuel prices soared by more than 140%, reaching their highest levels since 2022.

Profit Margins: The profit margin for producing jet kerosene from Dubai crude jumped to over $100 a barrel.

Airline Response: Major airlines are hedging large percentages of their fuel needs into 2027 to manage the crisis.

Supply Chain Disruptions: The closure of the Strait of Hormuz has blocked a route that typically handles about 20% of the world's crude oil. 

Even if the conflict is resolved, the disruption to supply chains is expected to cause long-term pain in energy markets.

Islam Center Texas

We hear a lot of rhetoric that 'Islam has conquered Europe'.

Clearly there are problems with mass migration here.

Yet this has been built in the Great State of Texas.

So the problems seem to be everywhere!

Tesla

It's 2042 and your Tesla Robot just found out your grandparents set a Cybertruck on fire

This might be a possibility in a technocratic dystopia, but it's still a little silly now. It's good to laugh.
