people at American embassy in Ottawa! Enough to surround the building. We walked around it a few times.
There were tons of really clever signs. My sign had a slogan I copied from someone on Mastodon ... "No Truth Decay". A dentist came up to me with appreciation for that : -)
I think the crowd might have been bigger but quite a few people went to the Palestinian support protests which in today's case was at the same time.
Instead of receiving permission from Egyptian authorities to march to the Rafah border crossing, participants have been subject to hotel raids, harassment, arrests, and deportations.
I'm sitting here tonight looking at old high school & college textbooks on algebra, statistics, and calculus trying to figure out the precise number of times we need to keep marching back & forth on Mill Ave or circling empty Capitol buildings to stop genocide & liberate marginalized communities and the only solution I keep coming up with is to stop listening to nonprofit/org movement managers (especially those who work with cops), start forming affinity groups of people who know this shit is performative & solves nothing, and start fucking escalating.
You know what those state reps in Minnesota did after the feds plus local sheriff deputies Luke Michelson and Timothy Inglett assassinated movement rebel Winston Smith in 2021? They gave the thumbs up to more cops and crackdowns, and they certainly never sought to bring the killers to account - we only know the killers names because of a leak.
So yeah, definitely not concerned for a couple politicians who became โcollateral damageโ
Watching the protests while working on a new forest painting.. pretty similar to the last one, because I liked making that!
Needs something on the foreground I think.. to make it special.. maybe something safe like more foliage, or something weird like a wizard or a witch or some animal..?
If Trump's response to the "No Kings" protestsโand, for example, the riots in LAโhas been "tyrannical," then we're just gonna need an even more extreme term to describe the left's response to the J6 protests.

There's a protest myth that liberals love to repeat.
Be peaceful so you don't give the cops an excuse to brutalize you.
The fact is that the cops are gonna brutalize you when they get the order to, whether you're sitting and singing kumbaya or not. It's got nothing to do with the actions of you and your fellow protestors. It has to do with when they get the word to swoop in and brutalize you, that's what's going to happen. When some higher up gets his manties in a bunch and decides it's time to crush some skulls.
So do us all a favor and stop saying that crap. It's false and creates dangerous situations for others out there on the streets with you.
The state is the perpetrator of violence, both visible and invisible. The state is going to go medieval on your ass when they feel like it. No excuse necessary.
@violetmadder And don't forget those that will try to turn other people in the crowd over to the cops if they don't agree with their type of direct action.

#Iran and #Israel are at war, with the #US already intimately involved and likely to become more so. Which of course means weโll be spending the foreseeable future getting bashed in the face with lies from the most powerful people in the world.
The most immediately obvious of these is the Netanyahu-promoted narrative that Israel initiated this conflict because Iran was on the brink of developing a nuclear weapon. With absolutely no self-consciousness or sense of irony, the Israeli prime minister followed the attacks with a statement accusing Iran of โgenocidal rhetoricโ which it has backed up โwith a program to develop nuclear weapons.โ Israel, as we all know, has an unacknowledged nuclear arsenal, and its leaders are presently committing #genocide in #Gaza while spouting genocidal rhetoric.
โAnd if not stopped, Iran could produce a nuclear weapon in a very short time,โ #Netanyahu claimed. โIt could be a year. It could be within a few monthsโโโless than a year. This is a clear and present danger to Israelโs very survival.โ
The western political/media class have been dutifully promoting this line and uncritically parroting Israelโs claim that its unprovoked attack on Iran was โpreemptiveโ, but there is absolutely no evidence that any of this is true.
Benjamin Netanyahu has spent literally decades falsely claiming that Iran was a year or two away from developing a nuke, only to have the calendar prove him wrong with the passage of time over and over again.
US intelligence chief Tulsi #Gabbard testified just weeks ago that โThe IC [Intelligence Community] continues to assess that Iran is not building a nuclear weapon and Supreme Leader Khamenei has not authorized the nuclear weapons program he suspended in 2003.โ
As journalist Sรฉamus Malekafzali recently noted on Twitter, one of the strongest arguments that Iran had not reversed its decision to refrain from obtaining nuclear weapons is that Iranian nuclear scientists have been publicly expressing frustration about the fact that their government wonโt allow them to construct a nuke. They want to do it, but Tehran wonโt let them.
US Secretary of Defense Pete #Hegseth helped pave the way for Netanyahuโs claims this past Wednesday when he told the Senate that โthere have been plenty of indicationsโ Iran has been โmoving their way toward something that would look a lot like a #nuclear weapon.โ
This claim by Hegseth was swiftly scooped up and promoted by warmongers like Tom Cotton who said that Hegseth had โconfirmed that Iranโs terrorist regime is actively working towards a nuclear weapon.โ
Cottonโs claim was then picked up by war pundit Mark #Levin, who has been personally lobbying #Trump to green light an attack on Iran, sarcastically quipping on Twitter, โSo, SecDef Hegseth must by lying, too. Everyoneโs lying except the isolationists, Koch-heads, Islamists, Chatsworth Qatarlson and their media propagandists.โ
But letโs back up and look at what Hegseth actually said. He did not say โIran is building a nuclear weapon.โ He said โthere have been plenty of indicationsโ Iran has been โmoving their way toward something that would look a lot like a nuclear weapon.โ
If the US had intelligence that Iran was building a nuke, Hegseth would have just said so. But instead he performed this freakish verbal gymnastics stunt muttering about indications of something that might kinda sorta look like a nuclear weapon, which his fellow Iran hawks then falsely took and ran with as a positive assertion that Iran was building a nuke.
There are other lies being circulated to help market this war as well. As Moon of Alabama notes, the Washington Postโs odious war propagandist David Ignatius is pushing the narrative that Iran has been cultivating a relationship with de-facto al-Qaeda leader Saif al-Adel. The lie that Saddam Hussein was in league with al-Qaeda was used two decades ago to sell the invasion of Iraq.
At the same time, Trumpian pundits are currently circulating the narrative that the United States is full of Iranian โsleeper cellsโ who could activate at any moment and begin attacking Americans. The most egregious of these is Laura Loomerโs repeated claims that there are โmillionsโ of such cells awaiting Iranโs orders to strikeโโโpossibly the single most bat shit insane claim I have ever seen anyone with any major platform make, since it would mean a very sizable percentage of the US population is actually a secret Iranian proxy army.
The fountain of lies is just getting started. There will be more. Believe nothing unless it is substantiated by mountains of evidence. These freaks have been caught lying to sell wars to the public far too many times for any of their claims to be taken on faith.
This class (forbiddentickets.com/events/paโฆ) was born through a specific experience - while teaching a class on D/s, panda was asked how it could have multiple dominant partners. Didnโt the other partners get jealous? What happened if there were differing desires? The question baffled panda a little at first, as it had never considered having multiple dominants as a thing that couldnโt be possible.
How on earth do we balance our dragon hoards of partners with which we exchange power?! Love isnโt pie, but time sure is. Letโs talk about how to keep your cule while ensuring everyoneโs needs are cared for.
I saw statement issued by group calling themselves
Anarchist Front of lran and Afghanistan
Statement from them reads like a Shitlib/Empire's sympathizer
In the whole statement,it doesnt have the word genocide & declares that they are against state-led wars (how noble of you?)
Reduces overall naked genocidal attack by Jewish Nazi society setting the whole region on fire & trying to start Iraq 2.0 to "redistribution of power among elites".
When you read the whole statement, it looks like they hate Iran more than they hate whole of Empire.
These people are not rational people. With the politics they have, they arent going to achieve anything in life. Most likely aid the worst in society while a slaughter machine is at their door step.
These people are completely unserious peopleโno matter what they did before in life.
Ofcourse, I hate Iranian regime just like everyone else
but not being able to see whats going to on i.e slaughter pipeline already in motion for those who live in "Iran" now, their Statement reads exactly like what I read from Western Imperial Terrorist diplomats (except "We are against all States").
When I read some statements attributed to Anarchists, I cant tell if its prepared by Empire's state department employee (or) someone who are actual anarchists who are so clueless.
They dont have the word colonialism, imperialism, western terrorism, nothing.
I am reasonably confident Anarchist space will be infiltrated by State as much as other Left current too are infiltrated. Sometimes not having serious & being dogmatic also can result in such analysis.
In anycase, if it quacks like X, its good to ignore such clueless statements.
I pursue my Anarchist politics, but I keep my eyes wide open to see games played
Unfortunately I could find their statement only on this Nazi website.
Not sure how one can maintain their anonymity by issuing statements on this website(if you are Anarchistโyou need to maintain some level of anonymity)
Not sure how they are maintaining anonymity as this Nazi (instagram) site works with every regime to screw people.
Ofcourse, there are ethnic groups Empire is nurturing to topple the regime & rule "Iran" just like how Empire + Syrian dictatorship destroyed Syria & now installed ethnic-enclaves.
I wont be surprised if this Anarchist outfit too has elements of that just like how I never felt Rojava's statements were 100% truthful after I looked below the surface.
So, if some groups' statements read like Rojava & it turned out to be Western Capitalistic

"What You Want" by Evanescence is a powerful anthem that embodies the band's signature sound, blending heavy rock elements with emotive lyrics. This track showcases Amy Lee's dynamic vocals and the band's intense instrumentation, making it a standout piece from their self-titled album. Released in 2011, it resonates with themes of self-empowerment and determination.
Lyrics: Do what you what you want If you have a dream for better Do what you what you want 'til you don't want it anymore Remember who you really are
Do what you what you want Your world's closing in on you now (it isn't over) Stand and face the unknown (got to remember who you really are) Every heart in my hands like a pale reflection
Hello, hello, remember me? I'm everything you can't control Somewhere beyond the pain there must be a way To believe we can break through
Do what you what you want You don't have to lay your life down (it isn't over) Do what you what you want 'Til you find what you're looking for (got to remember who you really are) But every hour slipping by screams that I have failed you
Hello, hello, remember me? I'm everything you can't control Somewhere beyond the pain there must be a way to believe Hello, hello, remember me? I'm everything you can't control Somewhere beyond the pain there must be a way to believe
There's still time Close your eyes Only love will guide you home Tear down the walls and free your soul 'Til we crash we're forever spiraling down, down, down, down
Hello, hello, it's only me Infecting everything you love Somewhere beyond the pain there must be a way to believe Hello, hello, remember me? I'm everything you can't control Somewhere beyond the pain there must be a way to learn forgiveness Hello, hello remember me? I'm everything you can't control Somewhere beyond the pain there must be a way to believe we can break through
Remember who you really are Do what you what you want

Arrรชt sur Info Tucker #Carlson (un journaliste honnรชte ostracisรฉ par l'appareil mรฉdiatique occidental) fustige #Trump pour son attaque contre lโ #Iran Extrait:
Les รtats-Unis sont ยซ complices ยป des frappes dโIsraรซl sur les sites nuclรฉaires de leur grand rival, a dรฉclarรฉ le journaliste
Le soutien du prรฉsident amรฉricain Donald Trump aux frappes dโIsraรซl en Iran pourrait dรฉclencher une ยซ guerre totale ยป au Moyen-Orient, a averti le journaliste amรฉricain Tucker Carlson.
Tรดt vendredi matin, des avions israรฉliens ont bombardรฉ des sites nuclรฉaires et militaires ร travers lโIran, ce qui a incitรฉ Tรฉhรฉran ร riposter avec un barrage de drones et de missiles visant les villes israรฉliennes. Lโescalade menace les nรฉgociations en cours sur le programme nuclรฉaire iranien, que Trump a relancรฉ plus tรดt cette annรฉe.
Dans ce quโil a dรฉcrit comme รฉtant peut-รชtre sa ยซ derniรจre lettre dโinformation avant une guerre totale ยป, Carlson โ un alliรฉ clรฉ de Trump lors de lโรฉlection prรฉsidentielle de 2024 โ a affirmรฉ que les รtats-Unis รฉtaient ยซ complices de lโacte de guerre ยป.
ยซ Bien que lโarmรฉe amรฉricaine nโait peut-รชtre pas physiquement perpรฉtrรฉ lโassaut, des annรฉes de financement et dโenvoi dโarmes ร Israรซl, dont Donald Trump vient de se vanter sur Truth Social, placent indรฉniablement les รtats-Unis au centre des รฉvรฉnements de la nuit derniรจre. a รฉcrit Carlson.
ยซ Washington savait que ces attaques se produiraient. Ils ont aidรฉ Israรซl ร les mettre en ลuvre. Les politiciens qui prรฉtendent รชtre 'lโAmรฉrique dโabord' ne peuvent pas maintenant se retourner de maniรจre crรฉdible et dire quโils nโont rien ร voir avec cela ยป, a-t-il ajoutรฉ.
Escalade sans prรฉcรฉdent entre Israรซl et lโIran : ce que nous savons jusquโร prรฉsent
Dans un post sur X, Carlson a soutenu que ยซ le vrai clivage ยป nโest pas entre les partisans dโ #Israรซl ou de lโ #Iran, mais ยซ entre les fauteurs de guerre et les artisans de paix ยป.
ยซ Qui sont les fauteurs de guerre ? Ils incluraient toute personne qui appelle Donald Trump aujourdโhui pour exiger des frappes aรฉriennes et dโautres implications militaires amรฉricaines directes dans une guerre avec lโIran ยป, a-t-il dรฉclarรฉ. Carlson a dรฉclarรฉ que les ยซ fauteurs de guerre ยป comprennent les animateurs de talk-shows Sean #Hannity et Mark #Levin, le magnat des mรฉdias Rupert #Murdoch et les donateurs rรฉpublicains Ike #Perlmutter et Miriam #Adelson.
"The US quietly delivered hundreds of Hellfire missiles to Israel before its unprecedented attack on Iran on Friday" "The transfer of such a large quantity of Hellfires suggests that the Trump administration was well-informed of Israelโs plans to attack...Iran" "Hellfires are laser-guided air-to-ground missiles. They would not be useful for Israel to bomb Iranโs nuclear facilities, but for precision strikes" Assassinations
"Iranian state media published warnings from Iranian authorities directed at the US, UK, and France, saying that their regional military bases and naval vessels will be targeted if they intervene to stop Iranian strikes on Israel" They refer to Jordan, Gulf States, Iraq, Syria (what's left of Syria, HTS Syria), and the US bases on those territories.
As the US-Israeli war against Iran rages for a second day, senior Iranian officials have vowed to escalate attacks on US, British, and French military positions

everyone talking about how there's now no way to distinguish between a real cop and someone there to kill you and we're just like, there's no difference at all, never has been, that's what the cops are for
The alleged Minnesota assassins is being called the "No Kings" killer, and he was appointed by Tim Walz to a prestigious position in 2019. x.com/SaltyGoat17/status/19339โฆ
"Iran's air defense force successfully shot down an Israeli F-35 fighter jet in the western sky of the country on 14 June, Iranian state media IRNA reported" "It was the third Israeli F-35 shot down since the start of Israel's attack on Iranian military, nuclear, and civilian sites since Friday" "Iranian Army commandos reportedly captured the pilot of a downed Israeli fighter jet" Not enough evidence at this point
Another way of looking at it is that Trump truly wanted a deal, which is why he was against Israel attacking Iran before his 60-day deadline was up, but he wasnโt going to stop them afterwards.
my favorite tobaccos are aromatics! I like imparting vanilla room notes indoors or leaving behind a sweet scent that trails back to me when I am outside on a walk or smoking at a bar patio. I find it fun whenever I hear random people pick up on it and comment on the pleasant smell. I do collect a lot of rare tobacco tins but tbh I smoke cheap OTC blends like the original Captain Black more than I do my more expensive stuff.
my all time favorite blend is probably Molto Dolce from Sutliff Private Stock. I am sad that it is no longer produced by Sutliff and I only have one sealed tin left of it..
Is there a way to re-humidify a package of pipe tobacco that's gotten a little dry? I've had a pouch for almost two years, for only very occasional smoking (a habit I've mostly dropped for tobacco), and would like to re-invigorate it.
My go-to aromatic right now is MacBarren Classic loose cut. Next time I'll try searching for a tin of cake roll of them. I used to smoke Cellini (even have one cellared at the moment) but the smoke experience is meh...lots of relights and stuff. Might have been my inexperience however. For real tobacco taste I go to Capstan Navy Blue flake and recently I finally found the OG Italian pipe tobacco brand with Italian grown tobacco. Dirt cheap over the counter tobacco that you better smoke slowly but with a surprisingly pleasant smoke that gives you a real tobacco flavor reminiscent of Toscano cigars (same company so go figure).
I have a tin cellared called Hellenism, has this amazing real tobacco flavor but lovely room note. its a blend of Japanese grown tobacco I brought back from my stay in Tokyo
Don't know if Cellini is from Savinelli. I do know that there's only one brand producing pipe tobacco in Italy with Italian-grown leaves and that's Toscano.
I bought this specific one, but they're all dirt cheap (between 5 and 6 euros per pouch) but this one is less strong and more Italian grown than others (not 100% I think).

โThis is the result of Democrats and Republicans not being able to come together in this immigration reform,โ the actor and former politician said. โThatโs what needs to be done so that you donโt have to go and start arresting people in the first place, so we know who is in this country and who is working here, who has the temporary working permit, who has the permanent working permit.โ
โThose resources could be funneled to some more effective ways of handling this immigration issue that they are saying we have,โ he said. โThe 15 guys waiting to get a job at 5 a.m. at the Home Depot parking lot are not the ones we need to be worrying about, but thatโs whoโs getting scooped up.โ

Today marks two years since the Adriana trawler sank off the coast of Pylos, Greece. Over 600 people drowned, a shipwreck that remains one of the deadliest in the Mediterranean. Just weeks ago, the Greek Naval Court confirmed what survivors and civil society have long known: Greek coast guard officials should bear a full investigation in their actions and responsibility for this shipwreck, a state crime that could have been prevented.
However, too often, states like Greece and Italy criminalize survivors. For this shipwreck, nine Egyptian men, the โPylos 9, were scapegoated, accused of smuggling and causing the tragedy. They were imprisoned for nearly a year before finally being acquitted in May 2024.
Let us not be misguided by this attempt of throwing dust in public opinionโs eyes and putting the blame elsewhere rather than on the State and its bodiesโ authority to act and prevent any loss of human life. These smuggling rings that governments claim to be against would not even exist if European states opened borders not just for the privileged but to anyone that decided to build a life elsewhere, even in their territories.
As the families of Pylos victims said recently in a message to the relatives of those who died in a deadly train crash in Greece: โLet our tears become a sea of rage.โ We echo that rage.
