Jacob Frey’s police department permanently evicted the only encampment in Minneapolis yesterday and circled the block for hours threatening to arrest anyone who came back to set up their tent.
And yet, there is still light in the world...
I cannot look away as long as Dr Prescod-Weinstein is wearing those earrings. And I have ADHD! I am the QUEEN of being visually distracted! THESE EARRINGS ARE MAGIC. (Or maybe it’s like when you dangle keys in front of a baby and I am the baby. Whatever, THE EARRINGS WORK)
Sigh. More about scientists and Epstein (starring some familiar names).
Of course, just knowing JE or attending a conference he sponsored isn't necessarily an indictation of participation in his less ethical activities. OTOH a lot of people turned a blind eye to them.

I’m glad that the same 4 people out of almost 700 and despite others having thousands of followers cumulatively only see these frantic posts about needs due in 24 hours

We don't talk enough about how a -huge- part of the right wing Christo fascists & supposed Christian revival is actually just a lie
These dipshits don't go to church
Lying about how often you attend church is like the classic lie conservatives tell
There invoking of religion is a fragile veneer
americans would be terrified if we knew what a "litre" was
This runs deep (generations deep) in my family. One ADHD kids grows up internalizing they're a "bad kid", and in the effort to spare their kids that pain, they pass it on.
I'm so grateful that ADHD is better understood these days, even if we aren't perfect about it.

I’ve watched this unfold in slow motion since I was a kid in the ‘90s. Nazi grifters preyed on my family. They failed to turn me into a Nazi.
But I’ve seen them openly want this for decades. These guys didn’t just show up - they’ve been waiting for their “moment.” They believe it’s now.
Lay in the clover field
Let the vines grow over
A broken body healed
Weeds sow the closure
Of a mind now congealed
By low light exposure
Poured into its human shield

Amazing to watch these folks talk about how they are working to create a loving and benevolent machine god when, in reality, they're putting all their resources into trying to adjust the bigotry dial on the demonic hatred engine so it can reliably produce the n-word, but only when it's "welcome."

A nice thread
The ruling class is in a permanent tax revolt, but not because its members fear higher taxes. They successfully evade taxes set at any level. What worries them is the proliferation of public goods, which tends to enhance the independence of the working classes.

Just to log this, in case it escalates. This article, which claims I've endorsed an automated trading service, is a scam, which has nothing to do with me, the Guardian, or the BBC, whose logo has been mocked up.
The only financial advice I'd give anyone is "don't ask me for financial advice."
This artwork by David Hockney, titled "Divine," features a seated figure adorned in a vibrant striped robe, set against a dynamic blue and red patterned background. Hockney’s characteristic use of bold color and geometric composition emphasizes both the figure's presence and the modernist tendencies in his work.

Not content with a forever war, he launched a "whatever" war.

Remember, kids, your expertise is so worthless that AI companies will not properly compensate you for it while at the same time it is so valuable they can aggregate it under your name and integrate it into their services as a feature.

In less than two weeks, the US government has already spent more money bombarding Iran than it will contribute to cancer research this entire year.
Probably *a great deal* more money.
They would rather let you die, so long as you fear them while you are living.

Achieving the UK’s net zero target by 2050 will cost less than a single oil shock and bring health and economic benefits.
Doing so would prevent the kind of shock that consumers are experiencing from the Iran war, which has sent the cost of oil and gas soaring.

People say genius can't be rushed but I think what isn't pointed out nearly enough is that non-genius also shouldn't be rushed. Non-geniuses are no less entitled to a personal quota of idle wandering, breaks to consume cake, staring blankly out a window and taking 11 days to reply to a text message.
the use of slop-machines reminds me of a story my commercial arts (graphic design) teacher told us back in 1991: how General Electric bought into the new tech hype - that if they gave their secretaries computers with the new, novelty graphic design programs recently available then they could
