Pandemonium at Gaza aid distribution centers is exactly what the UN warned about

UN agencies and humanitarian experts had previously warned that the Israeli plan would reduce aid volume, increase risks for vulnerable populations, and violate humanitarian principles, as it faces internal dissent from key figures running the plan

La Révolution française (Comme on ne vous l'a jamais racontée) - Épisode 13

Soutenez Blast, nouveau média indépendant : blast-info.fr/soutenir

"Alors, ça y est. On y est. Qu’est-ce qui s’est passé ? Comment ça s’est passé ? La Révolution française, même si tout le monde s’accorde sur le fait de ne pas en savoir assez pour ne pas se tromper à son sujet, personne ne se sent d’humeur à ne pas dire ce qu’il en pense. C’est un récit qui ne laisse personne indifférent. C’est une histoire que personne ne connaît bien, mais sur laquelle tout le monde a un avis. Comme Jésus.
Voilà ce dont nous allons essayer de parler dans deux épisodes successifs de L’Empire n’a jamais pris fin."

I used to work with a lady who would always take an interest in my music. She’d ask how our jam sessions went and if I’d recorded anything new. But, anytime I had something new, she’d listen to it through, and then tell me that it’s “not her kind of music”.
It always bemused me that she would take such an interest if she didn’t like what I was making. 

I decided to write her a song that she would enjoy.

Music was being streamed at work all the time, so I knew what sort of songs she was into. Classic Rock. Australian Pub Rock in particular. She was a single mum in her 50’s, a strong, hard woman, an Aussie battler.

I wrote Proud Woman in a weekend, and recorded it at home. A mate I regularly jam with did the vocals and when it was done, I uploaded it and shared it with her when I got to work.

She liked it.

The experience taught me the value of an audience of one. The focus on writing a song for one person, with the aim that they - that person in particular - enjoys it, gave me a different perspective on the whole creative process.

Please enjoy my song:

I relate to this so much.

I’ve been an independent musician for 30+ years, and I have written many songs for one person numerous times.

I feel that because I’ve come across and known so many special people in my life, that:
A. They deserve to feel special
B. It’s important to me to let them know how inspirational and supportive they’ve been for me.

One of these songs, for a Russian bartender friend of mine, was included on this collection

4 Non Blondes - What's Up (Official Music Video)

4 Non Blondes' "What's Up" is an empowering rock anthem that resonates with themes of frustration and self-discovery. Released in 1992, the song features powerful vocals from Linda Perry and a catchy chorus that has made it a timeless classic. Its relatable lyrics and energetic sound continue to inspire listeners, solidifying its place in 90s music history.

Lyrics:
25 years of my life and still
I'm trying to get up that great big hill of hope
For a destination
I realized quickly when I knew I should
That the world was made up of this brotherhood of man
For whatever that means

And so I cry sometimes
When I'm lying in bed
Just to get it all out
What's in my head
And I, I am feeling... a little peculiar.

And so I wake in the morning
And I step outside
And I take a deep breath and I get real high
And I scream from the top of my lungs
What's going on?

And I say:
Hey yeah yeaaah!
Hey yeah yeah.
I said hey
What's going on?

And I say:
Hey yeah yeaaah!
Hey yeah yeah.
I said hey
What's going on?

Uhh, uh, uhuhuh uhuhuh
Uhh, uh, uhuhuh uhuhuh

And I try
Oh my God do I try
I try all the time

John Denver - Take Me Home, Country Roads (Official Audio)

John Denver's "Take Me Home, Country Roads" is a beloved folk-country classic that evokes a sense of nostalgia and longing for home. Released in 1971, the song features heartfelt lyrics and a memorable melody, capturing the beauty of rural life and the comfort of familiar places. Its enduring popularity has made it an anthem for many, celebrating the spirit of the countryside.

Lyrics:
Almost heaven, West Virginia, Blue Ridge Mountains, Shenandoah River
Life is old there, older than the trees, younger than the mountains, growing like a breeze

Country roads, take me home, to the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mamma, take me home, country roads

All my memories gather round her, miner's lady, stranger to blue water
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky, misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye

Country roads, take me home, to the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mamma, take me home, country roads

I hear her voice in the morning hour, she calls me, the radio reminds me of my home far away
And driving down the road I get a feeling that I should have been home yesterday, yesterday

Country roads, take me home, to the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mamma, take me home, country roads

Everybody singing…

Country roads, take me home, to the place I belong
West Virginia, mountain mamma, take me home, country roads

Take me home, down country roads
Take me home, down country roads

All my memories gather round her, miner's lady, stranger to blue water.
Dark and dusty, painted on the sky, misty taste of moonshine, teardrop in my eye.
Country roads, take me home to the place I belong.
West Virginia, mountain momma, take me home, country roads.

Evanescence - Bring Me To Life (Official Music Video)

How can you see into my eyes like open doors?
Leading you down into my core where I've become so numb
Without a soul (soul), my spirit's sleeping somewhere cold
Until you find it there and lead it back home

(Wake me up) wake me up inside
(I can't wake up) wake me up inside
(Save me) call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up) bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up) before I come undone
(Save me) save me from the nothing I've become

Now that I know what I'm without, you can't just leave me
Breathe into me and make me real
Bring (bring) me (me) to life

(Wake me up) wake me up inside
(I can't wake up) wake me up inside
(Save me) call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up) bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up) before I come undone
(Save me) save me from the nothing I've become

Bring me to life
I've been living a lie
There's nothing inside
Bring me to life

Frozen inside without your touch, without your love
Darling, only you are the life among the dead
All this time, I can't believe I couldn't see
Kept in the dark, but you were there in front of me
I've been sleeping a thousand years, it seems
Got to open my eyes to everything
Without a thought, without a voice, without a soul
Don't let me die here, there must be something more
Bring me to life

(Wake me up) wake me up inside
(I can't wake up) wake me up inside
(Save me) call my name and save me from the dark
(Wake me up) bid my blood to run
(I can't wake up) before I come undone
(Save me) save me from the nothing I've become

Bring me to life
I've been living a lie (bring me to life)
There's nothing inside
Bring me to life

Don’t get me wrong: I really do think there’s an employment market threat from gen AI.

Huge swaths of white-collar jobs — particularly entry-level jobs — have long been mostly bullshit (in the Office Space sense that what matters is the •appearance• of progress, and not actual results). Automated bullshit generators certainly threaten those jobs.

AI can certainly generate TPS reports that nobody reads.

And there’s an even larger segment of jobs where the job truly is, “Eh, autopilot is good enough, just repeat the obvious pattern, it only needs to be right sometimes. Better than the garbage we’re replacing!”

Sometimes that work is even legitimate. I wrote about this here: hachyderm.io/@inthehands/11360…

Something that detects and randomly regenerates contextually relevant patterns certainly could displace some of that work. As long as it doesn’t really matter if it’s wrong, just as long as it sort of has the correct shapes…well, sure, LLMs!

I once worked at a company that sold industry-specific core-business software to deep-pocketed corps who couldn’t / wouldn’t / shouldn’t roll their own. I got into a discuss with my manager about whether our products were essentially — my words — a hoax.

Me: “Look, our products are riddled with bugs and holes. They’re nearly impossible to deploy, manage, and maintain. They frequently don’t even work •at all• on the putative release date, and we sell the mop-up as expensive ‘consulting.’”

As the article says, all of this especially threatens entry-level work. In so many worlds, we keep new people busy with something a bit mechanical where the results don’t really matter so that they can get acculturated, get socially integrated in the company and the industry, learn the lingo, learn the business. (If we get robots to do all our “wax on! wax off!” then how do you train the next Karate Kid?)

So yes: the job threat from BS generators is real, because jobs are full of BS.

Right now, there is a •preposterous• amount of money devoted to propping up an AI industry that is causing massive environmental damage, sits on unethical foundations, is enriching some of the worst people on earth, nurses a whole mountain of fascist fantasies (hachyderm.io/@inthehands/11455…), and isn’t even profitable.

For all those reasons, I’m really, really careful about what kind of hype I share. And — this is important! — I’m careful about what kind of hype I allow to get inside my own head.

Whatever LLMs and gen AI may or may not •actually• be good for, whatever jobs they may or may not actually reshape or displace, right now we’re in the middle of a bubble. The sheer amount of money involved makes it almost impossible to think clearly about this, much less have a useful public discussion. Even well-founded hopes and fears for the tech fuel a fire that I very much do not want to fuel.

So look, if you talk to me about the job threat from the things we currently call “AI,” well…

…if where you’re going with that is “The concentration of wealth is an existential crisis! Establish UBI! 99% marginal tax rate! Capital gains tax! Wealth tax! Abolish billionaires!” then yes, I’m •all• ears. My pitchfork is already sharpened.

But if where you’re going is “Get in on it now while you still can! Buy the AI vendors’ products! Drink radium for that youthful glow!” then…kthanksbye. I am not going to be a vector for your marketing propaganda, no matter how agitated you are.

P.S. Hat tip to @pluralistic for the radium reference. He was talking about other things (pluralistic.net/2024/09/19/jus…), but the whole vibe of that “Radium will magically restore you to health!” era is by far the best historical comparison I’ve found from the current froth-mouthed AI hype.

RUN DMC - King Of Rock

RUN DMC's "King Of Rock" is a groundbreaking hip-hop anthem that solidified the group's status as pioneers in the genre. Released in the mid-1980s, the track blends rap with rock elements, showcasing their innovative style. Its bold lyrics and energetic beat have made it a classic, influencing countless artists and shaping the future of hip-hop.

Lyrics:
I'm the king of rock, there is none higher
Sucker MCs should call me sire
To burn my kingdom, you must use fire
I won't stop rockin' 'til I retire

Now we rock the party and come correct
Our cuts are on time and rhymes connect
Got the right to vote and will elect
And other rappers can't stand us, but give us respect

They called us and said we're gettin' iller
There's no one chiller
It's not Michael Jackson and this is not "Thriller"
As one def rapper, I know I can hang
I'm Run from Run-D.M.C., like Kool from Kool and the Gang
Roll to the rock, rock to the roll
D.M.C. stands for devastating mic control
You can't touch me with a ten-foot pole
And I even made the devil sell me his soul

Now we crash through walls, cut through floors
Bust through ceilings and knock down doors
And when we're on the tape, we're fresh out the box
You can hear our sound for blocks and blocks
For every living person we're a purple treat
It's me and D.M.C., Jay, where's the beat?

Now we're the baddest of the bad, the coolest of the cool
I'm D.M.C., I rock and roll, I'm DJ Run, I rock and rule
It's not a Trick or Treat and it's not a April Fool
It's all brand new, never ever old school

You got the music in your body and you can't comprehend
When your mind won't wiggle and your knees will bend
Music ain't nothin' but a people's jam
It's DJ Run-D.M.C. rockin' without a band

Now I walked on ice and never fell
I spent my time in a plush hotel
I stood on many stages, held many mics
Take airplane flights, at huge heights
So all you sucker MCs, you gotta say please
'Cause when he jumps high, I'm pulling down weeds
Got a song so strong, it's knocking down trees
It isn't hard to believe it's Run-D.M.C.?

I am from, around the way
And Run goes to school, every day
And Jay plays the records he has to play
And we get down with no delay, hey!
I rock the party with the words I speak
And Run says the rhymes that are unique
And Jay cuts the records every day of the week
And we are the crew that can never be beat

So don't try to diss me, try to be my friend
'Cause if you do, you'll get yours in the end
The rhymes we say, shall set a trend
Because a devestating rap is what we send

Every jam we play, we break two needles
There's three of us but we're not The Beatles
My name is Darryl, you can call him D
You can call me Darryl Mack, or you can call him D.M.C.
People always ask, "D.M.C., what does it mean?"
D's for never dirty, MC for mostly clean

Like we said before, we rock hardcore
I'm DJ Run, I can scratch, I'm D.M.C., I can draw
And now we got the knack, to attract
Our rhyme's an aphrodisiac
We'll reign on your brain and rock your knot
When it comes to rock, give it all we got
To be MCs, we got what it takes

Let the poppers pop and the breakers break
We're cool, cool cats, it's like that
That's the way it is, so stay the hell back
We're causin' hard times, for sucker M
'Cause they don't make no songs like these
Period!

(Don't stop!)
(Run-DMC)

Völlig #Lost: #AfD- #Politikerin will Helfer von Hamburg abschieben.

Die #verurteilte #AfD-Politikerin Marie-Therese Kaiser rief auf dem rechtsextremen Nachrichtenportal X dazu auf, dem „Held von Hamburg“ als Dank dafür, die deutsche Messerangreiferin zu stoppen, ein „Gutschein für einen kostenlosen Rückflug“ zu übergeben. Damit überholt die Realität die Satire. Vor wenigen Tagen hat erst das Satiremagazin Postillon getitelt, dass die AfD die Abschiebung fordern würde.

Völlig Lost: AfD-Politikerin will Helfer von Hamburg abschieben - Volksverpetzer

Widerlich: Diese kaputten AfD-Politiker hetzen gegen den Helfer von Hamburg mit Lügen und Abschiebewünschen.

M.C. Hammer - U Can't Touch This

M.C. Hammer's "U Can't Touch This" is an iconic hip-hop track that revolutionised the genre in the early 1990s. With its infectious beat and memorable hook, it became a cultural phenomenon, showcasing Hammer's unique style and dance moves. The song's success solidified Hammer's place in music history and continues to influence artists today.

Lyrics:
You can't touch this
You can't touch this
You can't touch this
You can't touch this

My, my, my, my
(You can't touch this)
Music hits me so hard
Makes me say "Oh, my Lord
Thank you for blessing me
With a mind to rhyme and two hyped feet"

It feels good when you know you're down
A super dope homeboy from the Oaktown
And I'm known as such
And this is a beat, uh, you can't touch

I told you, homeboy
You can't touch this
Yeah, that's how we livin', and ya know
You can't touch this

Look in my eyes, man
You can't touch this
Yo, let me bust the funky Iyrics
You can't touch this

Fresh new kicks and pants
You got it like that
Now you know you wanna dance
So, move outta your seat
And get a fly girl
And catch this beat
While it's rolling

Hold on
Pump a little bit and let 'em know it's going on
Like that, like that
Cold on a mission, so fall on back
Let 'em know that you're too much
And this is a beat, uh, they can't touch

Yo, I told you
You can't touch this
Why you standing there, man?
You can't touch this
Yo, sound the bell, school's in, sucker
You can't touch this

Give me a song or rhythm
Making them sweat, that's what I'm giving them
Now, they know
You talk about the Hammer
When you're talkin 'bout a show
That's hyped and tight
Singers are sweatin'
So pass them a wipe or a tape
To learn
What it's gonna take in the 90's to burn
The chart's legit
Either work hard or you might as well quit

That's word, because, you know
You can't touch this
You can't touch this
Break it down!

Stop, Hammer time!

"Go with the flow", it is said
If you can't groove to this, then you probably are dead
So, wave your hands in the air
Bust a few moves
Run your fingers through your hair

This is it, for a winner
Dance to this and you're gonna get thinner
Now move, slide your rump
Just for a minute, let's all do the bump
(Bump, bump, bump)

Yeah
You can't touch this
Look, man
You can't touch this

You'll probably get hyped, boy, 'cause you know you can't
You can't touch this
Ring the bell, school's back in
Break it down!

Stop, Hammer time!

You can't touch this
You can't touch this
You can't touch this
Break it down!

Stop, Hammer time!

Every time you see me
That Hammer's just so hype
I'm dope on the floor
And I'm magic on the mic

Now, why would I ever
Stop doing this
With others making records
That just don't hit?

I toured around the world
From London to The Bay
It's "Hammer! Go, Hammer! MC Hammer! Yo, Hammer!"
And the rest can go and play
"U Can't Touch This"

You can't touch this
You can't touch this
Yeah
You can't touch this

I told you
You can't touch this
Too hype, you can't touch this
Yo, we're outta here
You can't touch this

Condamnez-vous les événements du #7octobre ? La Chine répond «non»


"La plupart des gens ne réalisent pas que sur les 195 pays que compte le monde, seuls 13 désignent officiellement le #Hamas comme une "organisation terroriste". Beaucoup pensent que le qualificatif de terroriste est appliqué universellement et que le reste de l’humanité voit le monde à travers le même prisme déformé que les Américains. Or, ce n’est pas le cas. Ils considèrent le Hamas comme un mouvement de libération nationale dûment élu pour gouverner #Gaza en 2006, à la suite d’élections «libres et équitables» imposées aux Palestiniens par l’administration #Bush. Aujourd’hui, le Hamas sert de prétexte pour massacrer des femmes et des enfants à Gaza à grande échelle. La plupart des dirigeants occidentaux ont exprimé leur soutien au bain de sang perpétré par #Israël depuis 18 mois, tandis que la #Chine s’y est non seulement opposée, mais a également défendu le droit des Palestiniens à la lutte armée."
