FASCISM Springer Spreads Old Lies About the Jews • This is the fifth installment of a book-length feature on Harvey H Springer, self-stuled cowboy pastor of the Englewood, Colo., Baptist Tabernaele. BY THEODORE WILSON IN THE columns of The Western Voice, personalities are the rule, not the exception, especially where Jews are concerned. We saw last week the snide remark about Sidney Hillman. Here are some about Walter Winchell, a favorite target because of his exposure of fascist elements in America! "Walter Winchell, with his super-ra. of speech is struck down.

It's notable how frank some US newspapers were in the immediate post-war period to call out American fascists using the "f-word." The people they were describing called themselves "Christian patriots" and "anti-communists," but they were clearly American fascists and many papers called them that.

Lori Chavez-DeRemer resigned today, a week after this:

I have been getting 2-3 of these daily for more than a year now because my name is on public company paperwork. It’s so annoying.

This news comes almost eight years to the day after the Sandy Hook families first filed their defamation lawsuit against Infowars. If the situation is as I believe it to be, the deal still has to be approved by a judge. More soon -

HIV and the criminalisation of drug use among people who inject drugs: a systematic review These data confirm that criminalisation of drug use has a negative effect on HIV prevention and treatment. Our results provide an objective evidence base to support numerous international policy initi...

The best current evidence suggests drug policy works better when treated as a public-health problem, not mainly a criminal one: harm-reduction measures have far stronger evidence for reducing mortality and infection than punitive approaches do. E.g. www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

Trump is clearly not fit to serve.

That’s why I am co-sponsoring a 25th Amendment bill with @raskin.house.gov.

Our country cannot afford having a madman in power.

The only way we unfuck our country is through a puritanical anti-corruption drive. We need to rip out a vast substrate of corrupt elites and marginalize an even larger contingent of mere incompetents and cowards.

Ppl need to be terrified of the white-collar criminal laws of the United States again.

We won.

Tesla Chicago is closed.

Their new location is in a ghost town. They sacrificed visibility to thousands/day--& proximity to the other luxury car dealerships--to get away from us, because we'd turned their brand ambassador location into a liability.

Just took a reading comprehension test that said I scored higher than 92% of army war college attendees

Reader, I am hungover af and sleep deprived. This does not bode well for those we are selecting for higher command and responsibility.

One thing that's worth repeating: There is *zero* evidence that "substack helps you get readers". The only thing that we've ever seen that helps grow an audience is other authors mentioning your blog or newsletter, which is not the platform's doing. Substack just takes credit for that!

When you use AI to do your writing, you are telling your audience: “I deserve your attention, but you do not deserve my effort.”

i finally wore these in public today and let’s just say the people crave headless aristocrats

If the entire goal of this is to keep the little electronics/repair shops the size of closets open, it’s worth it. They’ve saved me from fuckery more times than I like to admit.

JFC. This is what the end of metered reservation systems, massive NPS defunding and layoffs is doing to park entrance wait times.

Josh Rogin: “Somebody shorted the oil market today by hundreds of millions of dollars exactly 20 minutes before Trump made his announcement—

If you see that once, it could be a coincidence. But that's happened at least three times, if not more, since the war began — that's a pattern”

Republican SCOTUSes pickled their brains on rightwing media slop too.

Do you want to see the "big picture" on climate change?

Here it is.

Emissions are on the left, and include CO2, CH4, N2O, and f-gases. Natural CO2 sinks (from healthy forests & oceans) are on the right. And carbon removal, what little there is, is on the right, too. All expressed as GWP100.

Wowzer I was so busy today I completely missed this!

So, whither the UPMC Children's gender clinic hmmm?? Are we gonna open that back up or nah?

(It's nah. I am quite aware.)

I would have called such ass-hattery a hoax a couple years ago. Now, it’s just normal everyday surveillance capitalism and creeping technofascism

I just cannot get over the levels of all this theft.

Can you imagine having enough money to change houses because someone chalked your sidewalk?

I feel like this headline doesn’t really need to be framed as a question.

In the US you can't even take off a day to care for an ill human lmao

It’s like The Office except about dating. Love it.

Some alysiine braconids have been lekking in the back garden. These are parasites of flies, and given how many I'm seeing, I suspect they've been feeding on maggots in my compost.

Cybernetics is not really meaningful to most people today. Supplanted by so many other terms and branches, like control theory, systems theory, complexity, etc.
I find “AI” an unhelpful term because it embodies a frame I believe is invalid.

I also liked Mitchell’s “metaphors of AI” paper.

This is the marketing communications model of the VC-backed software industry since in the early 2000s.
Slap “new and improved with *” on the package, no matter what the words means, thereby destroying meaning.

The desperate campaign to push AI down our throats is just what Nestlé did with baby formula, or Monsanto with patended seeds.

Manufactured Intermediation—inserting a corporate tollbooth into a process that used to be self-sustaining, using a low initial barrier to entry to destroy the alternative.
