"Underneath the familiar rhetoric, something has changed in Farage. This isn’t the man voters know. The image he has carefully cultivated for decades; an impish public school boy, impossible to rattle, happy to spar with journalists, always ready with a joke and a pint, is no longer there. That mask has slipped, and beneath it lay an angry, conspiratorial man."
The Israeli bomb hit a car in the Sabra neighborhood, killing the Egyptian Committee's organizer of the World Cup viewing events, a taxi driver and two boys ages 10 and 8 years old....
My heart breaks for the people of Gaza... "let the Palestinian people be, let them exist, let them live a life of their own...”
Charlie Chaplin, 1940:
“Greed has poisoned men’s souls, has barricaded the world with hate, has goose-stepped us into misery and bloodshed. We have developed speed, but we have shut ourselves in.
Machinery that gives abundance has left us in want. Our knowledge has made us cynical. Our cleverness, hard and unkind.
We think too much and feel too little.
More than machinery we need humanity.
More than cleverness we need kindness and gentleness”

National Guard, working within a federal task force, have now shot and killed a civilian in Tennessee.
Military under federal guidance killing Americans on the streets: where we now are in the democracy backslide/authoritarian takeover attempt we all now face.

I am going to call my Congresspeople tomorrow and ask/demand that they find out if Mitch McConnell is dead. Anyone else up to do that?
One final postscript: anyone arguing that Europe is going to cripple their economy by imposing fees on pollution should invite their neighbor to come defecate in their yard. Stand up for your principles and help them slash their sewage bills to grow the economy.

seriously, close down everything touched by Apartheid Chud.
"France is hotter than the Sahara. What more polite wording do we need? The truth is that climate change is no longer a future threat. It’s a present-tense force reshaping the world. It’s in our classrooms, power grids, hospitals, farms, forests, oceans and homes. It’s in the silence where birds used to be. It’s in the heat stored in concrete at midnight. It’s in the river water too warm to cool a power station. It’s in the child trying to concentrate in a classroom never designed for 40 degrees.
The real danger isn’t only that these events are happening. It’s that we’re learning to live with them. Not by adapting in the serious, science-based, justice-based sense. But by emotionally accommodating them. Politically absorbing them. Lowering our expectations. Shrinking our imaginations. Forgetting what abundance felt like. Forgetting what safety felt like. Forgetting that this was preventable.
We need to remember what normal was, not because the past was perfect, but because memory is resistance"
One of the problems with the current AI mania is that products now eagerly claim to use “AI” whenever they can. But you have no way to tell whether this means it incorporates a few benign heuristics that might make it work a bit better or that it’s programmed to quietly learn as much as it can about you so that when the time comes, it can more efficiently harvest your organs.
Syracuse woman made an Instagram post months ago calling for the indictment of Jonathan Ross (the fascist who murdered Renée Good). She happens to be a poll worker. ICE agents visited her at her workplace, which is a polling spot, to tell her that making threats is illegal.
