The 911 "controlled demolition" BS is so tiresome... I took the time to sum up the obvious to debunk this BS: NO EXPLOSIVES means NO EXPLOSIVES!
Absolutely none were required to bring down the WTC, once those jumbo jets hit them!
I have no idea how people think they would have held up. There's a mysterious belief in the infinite resistance of stuff that was excellent 1960s engineering, but not more.
As for WTC 7, it had been burning for hours, with no sprinklers or anything. Then was shaken up by the horrendous shock of the WTC 1 & 2 collapsing, which damaged several buildings in the area so badly that they had to destroy them, in the aftermath. First, the penthouse fell into the inside of the building, showing that the internal structure had collapsed. Then the entire structure fell in on itself. Again, with ZERO evidence of explosives. So yes, logic dictates that it collapsed on its own.
Not that hard to believe.
Once you've eliminated the IMPOSSIBLE, you have to accept what remains, no matter how improbable.
People just WANT to blame it on the US government, even when the accusation is absurd: it didn't make any sense that the government would coordinate with terrorists to let them fly planes into the WTC after rigging the buildings with some magical, undetectable explosives that worked in reverse, i.e. top to bottom, starting exactly where the planes had hit, then exploding floor after floor with those magical explosives to ... do do what? Lower the resistance of each floor, which was already at virtually zero?
So how d the "controlled demolition" nutters think those explosives were installed? At what time? How did they avoid security?
Would have required hundreds of workers. No whistleblowers? A perfect government operation with no screw-ups and no records?
How did they hide the bombs and the cables?
What magic did they use?
The conspiracy idiots keep talking about thermite, which is NOT an explosive! Could NEVER have had the observed effect.
For what reason would they launch the controlled demolition? The airplanes were already entirely enough terrorism. The building collapse was totally not necessary.
It is infinitely much easier to just admit that the building collapsed under its own weight...
The ONLY objection I've seen is "I don't believe that's possible".
But we saw it happen!
There are so many things that seem totally impossible, but are real.
Get a gigantic pile of metal weighing 400 tons off the ground just by pushing a bit of air... that's absolutely impossible! Yet we got used to it.
But gigantic buildings collapsing after a catastrophic attack .. that's where they draw the line for their absolute disbelief and they need some MAGIC FAIRY DUST to destroy the building rather than ... it's own mass 🙄
It was only a matter of time before this happened. This government is falling apart and it's all it's own fault for standing for nothing more than the Rich.
Did Labour really think all these MPs they kicked out or silenced would just sit around and take it without doing something themselves?

This week i had a couple of conversations about #Gaza with well-meaning, nice people in which it transpired that they still knew virtually nothing about things that happened before Oct 7.
This factsheet, by the Independent Jewish Voice of Canada, gives a really good overview.
Let’s keep on sharing and informing others. So many here in Europe continue to know very little.
Picture this: you’re watching a classic film, and the subtle dance of film grain adds a layer of authenticity and nostalgia to every scene. This grain, formed from tiny particles during the film’s…

Kaitlynn Milne says her mother is usually always up first thing in the morning, hours before the rest of the family. She enjoys being productive in the quiet hours around sunrise. It’s an especially optimal time to do yard work, when the rest of her New Orleans neighborhood still sleeps and she can count on peacefully completing chores.
Gardening and rearranging the shed is how an average morning would go for Mandonna “Donna” Kashanian, a 64-year-old Iranian mother, wife, home cook, parent-teacher association (PTA) member and lifelong community service volunteer.
“She always says: ‘I’ve already done most of my day before y’all even wake up,’ complaining at us,” said Kaitlynn, 32. It was always done with love, she says, as her mother adores taking care of others and would wake up every morning excited to do just that.
But the morning of Sunday, 22 June, didn’t go like every other morning. In the early hours, while her husband, Russell Milne, slept inside the house, Kashanian was approached in her yard by plainclothes men who identified themselves as Immigration and Customs Enforcement (Ice) agents.
@ruralgloom Thanks so much for the journey with your spoken word. I missed a chance to say how I wish I could have seen you and my Dearly Departed Dad at a pub one evening, and to take bets as to whether you'd get more than one story per hour as he grilled you for every minute detail of every tale ❤
honestly i do not like having anyone else work on my car. i'm tempted to get under it and inspect it to see if they did anything stupid when i had it in for the alignment
“We’re not an island of strangers; we’re an island that’s suffering. We need homes and lives we can actually afford, not rip-off bills we pay every month to a tiny elite bathing in cash. We need our money spent on public services, not forever wars.
“In 2029, the choice will be stark: socialism or barbarism.
“Billionaires already have three parties fighting for them. It’s time the rest of us had one.”
Weigel and his text-buddy (link below) are both chickenshits, but his text-buddy is right. The "groups" are in fact the party's Achilles' heel.
Keeping the occupants of the "Big Tent" distracted and divided and focused on lobbying instead of organizing is how establishment Dems and their veal pen friends protect capital. That is, roughly speaking, their role in the current political system. When they can no longer accomplish that, capital will abandon them, and they know it.
Broad-based solidarity movements threaten Dems every bit as much as they do the GOP.
That's why they freak out so hard when somebody like Mamdani (or Obama!) comes along.
It's why they let the GOP drive the news cycle with a never-ending stream of wedge issues that keep tearing at their coalition.
It's why they spend so much more time talking about what they're going to say than they spend actually saying anything.
It's why they love to do loopy means-tested triple-bank-shot monstrosities instead of picking a straightfoward way to improve people's lives and then organizing around it.
It's why rotating villains like Manchin and Sinema get offered the occasional carrot, but are never EVER threatened with the stick.
It's why the riggedness of the economy cannot possibly be acknowledged, and more generally why injustices can only ever be vague abstractions to be addressed in some glorious golden future, never today.
Because who knows when a particular injustice might serve as a rallying point.
Sigh...
This isn't useful information anymore, really. The so-called "sixth" duopoly has already failed. The Democratic and Republican Parties as we've known them all these years are both terminal and close to the end. Whatever happens next will be different enough to require a different response.
It's just that the system is so big and ponderous that even at the astonishingly rapid rate thing are going, it will take at another cycle or two to actually collapse.
But it's still worth mentioning, as a reminder that one way and another "the groups" represent most of the country.
Ordinary people could quickly and easily destroy either or both of the parties, if they managed to reach an agreement about how to do it.

Joe Rogan Slams Trump Immigration Raids as ‘Insane’
Rogan, a vocal supporter of Trump, appeared visibly frustrated while discussing the increased frequency of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) raids.
“There’s two things that are insane,” Rogan said. “One is the targeting of migrant workers. Not cartel members, not gang members, not drug dealers. Just construction workers.”
“Showing up in construction sites, raiding them. Gardeners. Like, really?”
A US citizen is suing the federal government for $1 million after allegedly being unlawfully arrested by immigration officers while filming an ICE raid.
yea unfortunately blue collar will be next in just a few years after they replace all of middle management and administration (i think this is what they mean by "white collar")
@vokainen099 most of the manufacturing is gone and it's never coming back, at least not at employment levels we had before, but i figure stuff like plumbing, electrical, HVAC and roofing and so forth, those people have a good 5-10 years before we see significant humanoid robot labor encroaching on that
@meowski It's debatable if those are threatened by robotization. That would require humanoid-like robotics at a notable intelligence level. Of course, factories may manage to automate somewhat those things, but outside you will still need technicians climbing over roofs and tearing down walls.
They might suffer more due to declining population that can't afford housing and leaves them without stable income.
We've been memeing the trades for a decade plus by now, but the fact still stands that if you don't got a union job, or inherit an established customer base, then even trades can be painful. That could worsen still if their potential customers simply disappear
@vokainen099 i'm seeing humanoid robots do tasks now that were seemingly far out of reach just a year or two ago. 5-10 years is an eternity in these time frames
@meowski If you saw the robots of the Boston Dynamics projects or something like that, remember that all of those were terminated.
Simply too costly to manufacture and maintain. Wheels are cheaper than pneumatic muscles. Their "horse-like" replacement for example was terminated because the army found out that mules would be cheaper.
Their humanoid robot was simply too complex.
Would need major advances in artificial muscles before anything like that becomes viable, and even then would also need to be cheaper.

Πετάνε GWh ΑΠΕ αλλά κρατάνε τις τιμές στα ύψη ληστεύοντας την κοινωνία.
Σύμφωνα με έκθεση του «Green Tank» που δημοσιεύθηκε χθες, από τις αρχές του έτους έως και την 1 Ιουνίου απορρίφθηκαν συνολικά 975 GWh (γιγαβατώρες) ΑΠΕ ξεπερνώντας τις περικοπές για ολόκληρο το 2024 (899 GWh).
Αθροιστικά το πρώτο πεντάμηνο του 2025, απορρίφθηκε το 8,9% της συνολικής παραγωγής από ανανεώσιμες πηγές.
Παράγουμε πολύ περισσότερη ενέργεια απ ότι καταναλώνουμε αλλά οι τιμές βζιιιιιιιιιιιιιν ⬇️
Με σχετικά υψηλούς ρυθμούς συνεχίστηκε το «ψαλίδι» στις ΑΠΕ και τον Ιούνιο σε αντίθεση με προηγούμενα έτη που τα καλοκαίρια, λόγω της αυξημένης ενεργειακής ζήτησης, οι περικοπές μηδενίζονταν.
Αιτία η ολοένα και μεγαλύτερη διείσδυση «πράσινης» ενέργειας, κυρίως ηλιακής, στο ενεργειακό μείγμα.
Αν μάλιστα η υπερπαραγωγή ΑΠΕ συνδυαστεί και με περιορισμένες εξαγωγές τότε ο «κόφτης» είναι δεδομένος.
Εδώ λοιπόν φαίνεται πόσο άχρηστοι είναι οι άριστοι ή πόσο οσφυοκάμπτες στους ολιγάρχες.
Εγκαθιστούν συνεχώς ΑΠΕ για να φάνε τις επιδοτήσεις και να αδειάζουν τα πορτοφόλια μας, χωρίς σχεδιασμό, χωρίς αποθηκευτικές μονάδες, χωρίς συμφωνίες εξαγωγής ρεύματος.

you can safely give 1 baby asprin for every 10 lbs of weight every 12 hours but not for more than 2 days, but it can provide some releif.
Yes I know. Not ideal but if it's all you can do, all good. Lol! I have worked in the industry for 19 years. All the shit has tripled in prices. Gabapentin is cheap once you have a prescription.

America250 is proud to announce a monumental celebration, kicking off a new era of American greatness, featuring special remarks by President Donald J. Trump...
The Baal Shem Tov, the 17th century founder of Hasidic Judaism, notes in his ethical testament, Tzavaat HaRivash, that the swaying in prayer is similar and connected to the act of copulation. He writes, "prayer is zivug (coupling) with the Shechinah. Just as there is motion at the beginning of coupling, so, too, one must move (sway) at the beginning of prayer. Thereafter one can stand still, without motion, attached to the Shechinah with great deveikut."
Astronomers have confirmed the discovery of a rare celestial visitor: a comet from beyond our Solar System.
Officially named 3I/ATLAS, this newly identified interstellar object is only the third of its kind ever observed, following the famous 1I/ʻOumuamua in 2017 and 2I/Borisov in 2019.
Ukraine claims that Russia is gearing up for a large-scale offensive there, a Russian security source denied any such plans, while the US is closely monitoring the situation.
Jeremy Corbyn has hinted he could launch a political party alongside other leftwing independent MPs in an attempt to offer “an alternative” to Labour, before the next general election.
Speaking on ITV’s Peston programme, the former Labour leader confirmed discussions were under way among the Independent Alliance group of MPs that he co-founded last year.
Asked directly whether they were preparing to form a new party, Corbyn did not rule it out. “That grouping [of independents] will come together, there will be an alternative,” he said.
Don't remember why I don't like Grimerica, so giving that another chance. Also trying the Millennial Media Offensive. And some random podcasts from a libertarian podcast list.
I'm looking for podcasts - with good sound quality - that are entertaining - that leave me feeling smarter at the end.
Point 1 is the real struggle. A lot of podcasts are poorly recorded, and I have no tolerance for that. Also, I usually listen in the car, so there's a lot going on, aurally.

@scottdhansen They are decent for geopolitics. They still thought Trump was winging it with the Iran strike. They do not understand Trump and are very pro Russia. They have been dead on with Ukraine /Russia conflict though.
BTW Russia is coming up the Southern Pivot -- I know I say it all the time -- but looks like they finished taking the last town that spans the coastal edge of the next to the last defensive line guarding the major Eastern supply route to the South (1/2). Once they get fire control there then they can collapse the last real defensive line.
Ukraine is still scrambling to send men down to defend, but looks like it's going to be too late to hold off a late Summer sweep. Likely why the US halted arms shipments as they will just be in Russia's hands as much as we have no stock left.
I talk to other "warlords" from time to time. Ukraine is set to collapse now Russia is bombing their recruitment centers and the local citizens are cheering them on -- right before elections in Ukraine. :3

Houseplants are such a barometer of self care, although the flower pictured here is one I made from paper.
I have a weekly alert to water the houseplants, but it’s usually just a backup to remind me if I’ve been preoccupied. If I’ve been taking time for myself, I’ll water when they catch my attention by loosing their alertness, like a drooping ficus leaf or a leaning peace lily spike. This week both the plants and I have been thirsty, despite the break from the heat. I’m noticing I’m drinking more water, even though I’ve been avoiding going out during the hottest part of the day. Are you staying hydrated? Despite the bright hues, this color combination feels cooling to me. The green section below the “flower” unravels. I hid gifts inside the paper heliconia as I glued the spathes together. #bloomscrolling #color #fediart #houseplants
