Gentle nerd freak of the pacific northwest. All nation states are vermin.
It’s not leaked, it’s intentionally published on an official substack.
The memo itself is just more lies from christian nationalists. This one is from a catholic who has previously called for ending democracy and having the church take over the state, pretending that he loves the democratic freedoms of places like Hungary and wants to protect them from the evil fascism of anyone left of Hitler.
This is not a problem for big ag. That’s why no regional or national ag-orgs are complaining. This is not a face eating leopard moment, sadly.
Campaneros still need to work. The pattern at the moment is they stay away for a few days after a raid, but then return. This benefits their bosses. Previously there were work stoppages to pressure bosses to raise the $/piece rate. Not now.
Plus the regime has promised to replace the workers lost to their ethnic cleansing campaign with an expanded H2a visa program - after having stripped away many of the already meager protections against wage theft.
The plantation lords know they’re getting cheaper, more exploitable labor.
led crowds in chants of “free, free Palestine” and “death, death to the IDF” [The BBC said:] “The antisemitic sentiments expressed by Bob Vylan were utterly unacceptable … " [Starmer said:] “appalling hate speech.”
“Free Palestine” is not antisemitic. Criticism of a nation state’s armed forces is not antisemitic. Especially when those armed forces are objectively committing genocide.
Yeah it really stands out.
Either it’s a lie and feds installed a keylogger remotely after the tip off from the Roblox user mentioned, Or the “matyr” had behavior problematic enough that even their family were concerned.
This is extra funny because not only is the gameplay shit on purpose, it’s shit on purpose as a criticism of capitalism.
Monopoly is supposed to be frustrating as a reflection of how frustrating life is under capitalism, and here comes capitalism to sell an even more annoying version full of popups and money grabs.
The death of satire is a well with no end.
It’s also important to remember that non-violence serves the interest of entrenched power. The state is at its core a violence-control structure. When people excersize the power of violence in their own interests, the state must reassert it’s dominion or risk collapse.
Non-violent requests can be accommodated without elites feeling like their ill-gotten power is threatened. But it’s often the violent demands that scare them into doing so.
a unique quality to the feeling of it’s drive
I have to admit I’m skeptical, and not just because it sounds written by a marketing team.
Things like the subjective feeling of something are strongly socially determined. When we’re told something is fancy or high quality we have a different and better experience of that thing.
As humans it’s rarely possible to separate our experience of a thing from our judgements of the people and identities we associate with it.
Lust and gluttony don’t need a month, they’ve got everything figured out. Sloth couldn’t care. Wrath and greed already rule the world. And envy is sad cat face about everything
That’s him, the one whose stated goals can be seen in every move the trump regime makes.
Greens and pointier browns, the greens were incredible, but I always prefer green olives.
When I worked at a fair trade store we had these Palestinian olives that were so damn good. Every morning I’d open a jar for customers to sample, eat olives till I made myself sick, then do it again the next day. Good times.
Not being able to unpin email chains unless you change it to non-threaded replies, select all, unpin, then go back to threaded replies like a civilized lifeform. Otherwise it just repins the chain when it refreshes.
Our office also uses teams phones which still don’t have a way to show missed calls. We literally cannot call people back if we don’t get to the med room phone in time.
A lot of people do seem to think “bush looks good in comparison to trump”, ignoring the fact that the open corruption and rejection of reality under bush was an earlier iteration of our current fascist coup, an important stage in that same process.
Obama openly refusing to enforce the law against those bush era criminals (“I’m looking forward not backward”) was another important step towards fascism.
It’s worth remembering the bush era’s invade the hague act, committing the US to a military attack on the ICC if they prosecute any US personnel for the many war crimes we committed in full view of the world.
Sanctioning judges for acting on an allies’ war crimes is new, sure. But the US is an old hand at spitting in the face of international law to protect mass murderers from justice.
A substantial portion of the anthropocene extinction event is the Monsanto extinction event.
Domestic violence is within a family, especially spouses, femicide is “when women and girls are killed because of their gender”, to quote the article.
When he gets belly rubs he often raises his arms above his head in a “hands up don’t shoot” pose, and he always looks scared. I don’t have a photo of it cause I’m always too focused on getting that belly.
But here’s a picture of him saying hello:
Here’s the article without the link to reddit: https://www.euronews.com/2025/07/10/armenia-and-azerbaijan-move-closer-to-peace-pushing-russia-out-from-the-south-caucasus
It feels a little overblown to me. My understanding is that Russia spurned Armenia and gave their blessing to Azerbaijan’s defeat of Armenia. So it’s not too surprising that Armenia didn’t want Russia to broker the peace, and Azerbaijan didn’t need them - they won.
There are troubles in Russo-Armenian relations, but there’s no details of Azerbaijan distancing themselves from Russia. If anyone knows more, please let me know.
