Take your time with that.

reopening these since I'm still not 100% and able to resume regular work just yet. DM me if you're interested!

so it turns out that the identity verification provder persona, with its well documented links to peter thiel from the epstein files and palintir, is keeping all data of targets and linking them to intelligence databases and watch lists, exactly like you suspected

Someone has sure already made this observation but the fact they can convert all those empty warehouses into prison camps means they could have converted them into housing, community centers, job training centers or, hell, libraries or schools all along. It’s always a matter of will not resources.

I am begging people, if they want to see actual change, to curb their impulse to make fun of someone making an attempt to understand, even if its a bad attempt. You want them to keep trying. We lose when people stop trying.

Psst.

Hey, come closer.

No, closer.

I have a New Year’s secret for you.

It’s this:

If you care about people you don’t even know, and try to live your life that way, you are absolutely beautiful no matter what you look like.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have shown Alzheimer’s disease can be REVERSED- not just prevented. Using a potent neuroprotective compound called P7C3-A20, they found RESTORING balance to a central cellular energy molecule (NAD+) not only PREVENTED disease features but REVERSED them, EVEN at late stages.

Saw this on the other site and wanted to share it here. Furry artist ardwoof has been detained by ice for the last few weeks. here is the GoFundMe link their family/friends have set up to help with their legal fees:

Land back isn't a slogan, it is an existential necessity. We can't just listen to indigenous voices, we need to support them. Fund them. Elect them. Follow them.

'You're adopted'

(For the non-palaeo folks, this is in light of a newly published paper re-establishing that #Nanotyrannus, previously understood to be a juvenile #T.rex, is indeed its own genus after all.)

Support the Indies, friends.

Every view leads to a dream come true. 🤘🏿✨💕

However much you, a politically engaged person, think the average American knows about what's going on, I can promise you: it's way less than that. No matter how low your estimation. It's lower than that.

This was just posted by a CBS News producer on their Instagram stories.

I feel you on not being in a state where you feel like you can take commissions. If/when you figure that out, I'd love to hear how you worked it out. And I'll be in that line ready to pay you for one.

“America is the wealthiest nation on Earth, but its people are mainly poor, and poor Americans are urged to hate themselves. To quote the American humorist Kin Hubbard, 'It ain’t no disgrace to be poor, but it might as well be.' It is in fact a crime for an American to be poor, even though America is a nation of poor. Every other nation has folk traditions of men who were poor but extremely wise and virtuous, and therefore more estimable than anyone with power and gold. No such tales are told by the American poor. They mock themselves and glorify their betters. The meanest eating or drinking establishment, owned by a man who is himself poor, is very likely to have a sign on its wall asking this cruel question: 'if you’re so smart, why ain’t you rich?' There will also be an American flag no larger than a child’s hand – glued to a lollipop stick and flying from the cash register. Americans, like human beings everywhere, believe many things that are obviously untrue. Their most destructive untruth is that it is very easy for any American to make money. They will not acknowledge how in fact hard money is to come by, and, therefore, those who have no money blame and blame and blame themselves. This inward blame has been a treasure for the rich and powerful, who have had to do less for their poor, publicly and privately, than any other ruling class since, say Napoleonic times. Many novelties have come from America. The most startling of these, a thing without precedent, is a mass of undignified poor. They do not love one another because they do not love themselves.”

reading slaughterhouse 5 for the first time and i was absolutely knocked senseless by this passage, which is so true and relevant that it feels like it was pulled from a history book

The police raids and sweeps at Mountain View are unacceptable—as is the silence from Councilmember Eunisses Hernandez and her office. Pigs have repeatedly sexually assaulted and harassed women at the sweeps Eunisses's office orders. Everyone has been arrested and cited with 41.18. 1/

New Yorkers: please vote!!!! Cuomo went all-in on racism in the final 2 weeks because he's got nothing else. And as we've seen, that's a very effective motivator.

Yeah, I hope they shift away from it. They've taken an extra couple of months to release this new expac, at least, which might indicate that they've realized that the strict yearly cadence they were going for wasn't enough time to let this one cook. Might.

I've heard JW is a significant improvement. Not perfect but definitely better than SOTO. (I haven't been able to get very far into it myself, with this year being how it is. Been meaning to catch up on it.)
