Have to agree with you there… It has become like Paris. Smells like piss everywhere, homeless people everywhere, and criminals everywhere. A few of my female friends also told me they were either molested or harassed by those arab-looking immigrants.
Things have really taken a turn for the worse. I miss the old London (or rather, the UK). If that’s not bad enough, we have to worry about China propaganda and their nationalist tourists here.
And man, how I wish I have your life right now.
And such a coincidence you mention about the stabbing, because just last week, there was a stabbing case of a 55-year-old man in Tottenham.
The problem for me with central London is even the nice areas have long become crime hotspots with effectively day tourist criminals coming out the horrid areas that are very near the million pound house areas. People getting stabbed to death over a fancy watch and whatnot.
I'm on a Spanish island right now where I can walk about on my own wearing a Rolex if I want to. But I don't have an office, or a country I need to be in. As long I have a tiny bit of common sense about me, crime just isn't an issue I need to concern myself with day to day.
I wouldn't do a 9-5 in the centre of London for £500k a year.
<b>Former Google executive turned startup co-founder shares life-changing tip for aspiring entrepreneurs</b>
Arta Finance CEO <b>Caesar Sengupta</b>, backed by Google’s Sundar Pichai, calls meditation his ultimate entrepreneurial “superpower.” Amid startup chaos, he urges founders to find stillness to stay grounded. Backed by a USC study, even 30 days of mindfulness improves focus and reaction time, proving that mental clarity might just be the sharpest tool in business today.
If you know where I'm getting at.
My traffic has been falling for 7 days straight. GSC is just giving me a straight line down. I have no idea what I could have done THAT wrong and have no idea what to do differently.
SEO has never been easy and kind of sucked, but this is shaping up to be the most depressing core update in my 13-year-old career. Thanks, Google!
We populate these to override automaticly chosen Social Profiles being sh own.... Google didn't "add" them for us, but did incorrectly alter the social profile links on 300+ lisings. Thanks for not helping...

like every update, there will be a few winners and many losers. In my niche, I see more YouTube videos, X posts. It's tech. There is pretty much no reason to pay a web host or have a website. You are not going to rank. YouTube/Reddit/X pretty much cover the first page
if gives any hope to anyone, I confirm the growth we noticed so far is consolidating and figures kept steady including this second week since we observed the uptrend.
It's still early for a definite conclusion having no confirmation if update is done and even after the update you never know!!!
Anyway keeping fingers crossed for everyone here!
Sounds contradictory, I know. But Tottenham is worse. Not only are the immigrants a concern, but it is full of chavs. I was nearly robbed several times, and the perpetrators were both immigrants and chavs. I’m always the target because I have a scrawny body frame. The only fortunate thing was that I had good situational awareness and escaped in time, or the bobbies were nearby.
Central London is way better than Tottenham. I’ve seen those clips of those immigrants flooding the streets, but it is in certain areas, and I avoid those areas.
Anyway, the main reason I had to move was to care for my mom, and work. And it is tiring to take the sub everyday which takes about an hour to reach the destination. The only thing I will miss about leaving Tottenham is the convenience to go to the stadium to watch the game (spurs fan here).
By the way, where are you’re at?
The EU and UK will, though, there rulings will highlight something is not right. The theft is not good for all us publishers we will be out of business and no more fresh content produced just AI slop
Last weekend was good. It was like everything was back to normal. But since the beginning of the week, everything has been terrible again. News is not getting into Discover, and when it does, it gets minimal visibility. Traffic is barely alive.
Jesus, it’s been so crazy lately.
Sick of the crime rate in my area (nearly got robbed several times) and I decided to move to central London, since I’ll be closer to my mom’s and it will be closer to my workplace too. I was shock by the cost of living here because it is almost 50-100% more than in Tottenham. Absolutely abhorent and I don’t remember it was this high when I was still staying with my mom.
Regarding websites, I’m seeing an uptick in traffic, but conversions are still flat. Visitors landing on my website aren’t signing up for my newsletter, or clicking on ads or affiliate links.
I feel it's a good move.
I believe they’ve seen what happened in the Ukraine-Russia war and they decided to focus on this area to have a superior advantage.
I’ve seen those Chinese propaganda videos of their drone light show and how invested they are in such matters. And since they and Russia are allies, I wouldn’t be surprised if China would deploy the exact same drone strategy should a war break out.
But, if the drones are from ChinaZon, who knows if China has implemented some killswitch or remote-access trojan in them before selling to the US. I’ve never bought any electronic devices or software from China as I’m always sceptical of what they may have put in.

Hey Sam.
That's very humbling of you.
Im on X in the link above if you need to connect.
Much appreciated. A good soul like yours deserves good fortune too.
pretty much. Trump was never going to hold Google responsible. We don't matter. Let's be honest. Small and even medium size businesses don't matter to politicians.
Agreed. Except for the problem he would love being the bitch in jail.
They need to send that soy POS to do manual labor as punishment. Then he will scream like a bitch in terror instead of in orgasm like he would in jail.
