Automated door wouldn't open at my local shop and my first thought was not "oh no, have the laws of physics temporarily stopped working for me here? Or could I be a vampire needing inviting in... it is daylight, but..."

Then I round the corner to go to the big shop and see the utility company digging a hole next to the little shop and realise it's a power cut...

Το στρατόπεδο συγκέντρωσης της Σιντικής μετατράπηκε από υποτιθέμενη «Ελεγχόμενη Δομή Προσωρινής Φιλοξενίας Αιτούντων Άσυλο» σε «Κλειστή Ελεγχόμενη Δομή Κράτησης Μεταναστών» με την αιφνιδιαστική απόφαση της κυβέρνησης να αναστείλει την πρόσβαση σε διαδικασίες ασύλου.

Η Ένωση Αστυνομικών Υπαλλήλων Σερρών, δηλώνοντας πρώτα την ετοιμότητα και προθυμία των αστυνομικών να λειτουργήσουν το στρατοπέδο συγκέντρωσης, έχει ζητήσει από την κυβέρνηση να εγκατασταθεί συρματόπλεγμα με ξυράφια στην περίφραξη, να ενισχυθεί η αστυνομική παρουσία κ.ά.

Ukraine. Trump continue d’humilier l’Europe


Par Moon of Alabama

Rien n’a changé après les réunions d’hier.

  • L’Ukraine offre un contrat d’armement de 100 milliards de dollars à Trump pour obtenir des garanties de sécurité (archivé) – Financial Times, 19 août 2025
  • L’Ukraine a promis d’acheter 100 milliards de dollars d’armes américaines financées par l’Europe dans le but d’obtenir des garanties américaines pour sa sécurité après un accord de paix avec la Russie, selon un document consulté par le Financial Times.
  • Alexander G. Rubio @AlexanderGRubi2 – 2:22 UTC * 19 août 2025
  • Le plan est que les États-Unis vendent des armes aux Européens, qui les fourniront ensuite à Kiev. Cependant, les États-Unis n’ont pas les armes à vendre, les Européens n’ont pas l’argent pour les acheter et Kiev n’a pas les soldats pour les utiliser. A part ça, c’est un plan infaillible.
  • [Poutine] a noté que ces personnes ont « exécuté avec plaisir tout ordre du président à Washington sous Biden » mais “se sont embrouillées lorsque Trump a soudainement remporté” les élections de novembre.
  • « Ils n’aiment tout simplement pas Trump, ils l’ont activement combattu, se sont ingérés dans la vie politique, dans les élections américaines. Trump a des idées différentes sur ce qui est bon et ce qui est mauvais, y compris en matière de politique de genre et sur d’autres sujets, et ils n’aiment pas ça« , a déclaré Poutine. […]
  • « Je vous assure que Trump, avec son caractère et sa persévérance, rétablira l’ordre assez rapidement. Et tous, vous verrez, bientôt tous se tiendront aux pieds du maître et remueront doucement la queue« , a soutenu Poutine.
  • Les dirigeants européens « remueront la queue » devant Trump – Poutine – RT, 2 février 2025
  • Arnaud Bertrand @RnaudBertrand – 7:48 UTC * 19 août 2025
  • C’est au-delà de la parodie : non seulement l’UE ne fait pratiquement rien pour échapper au racket de protection qu’elle subit de la part des États-Unis, mais elle est maintenant censée payer pour celui de l’Ukraine…
  • D’autant plus absurde si l’on considère que l’expansion de l’OTAN – l’institutionnalisation de ce racket de protection – a été le principal catalyseur de ce conflit.

Civil Discourse with Joyce Vance – Conduct Unbecoming – August 19, 2025 – DrWeb's Domain

There is nothing off the table anymore
And there doesn’t seem to be a bottom floor
‘It can’t happen here’ is something that we’ll
never say again
Because you know it can
It’s really happening

There is nothing off the table anymore
And the men in boots are marching past your door
Will you yell things out the window?
Will you wave a little sign?
Will you fight them? Will you join them?
Will you hide & close the blinds?

There is nothing off the table anymore
It’s bit too much like 1934
If you ever wondered what you’d do if you had
lived back then
Congratufuckinlations
It’s happening again

But possibility swings both ways
At the risk of sounding silly
There might be some better days ahead
If they can dig a hole
We can make a hill

There is nothing off the table anymore
And the ship that brought us burns upon the shore
When we talked about apocalypse not being an event
But kinda more a process
This is what we meant

There’s nothing off the table anymore
(When things start to fall apart)
You may be lonely angry sad & scared & bored
(& you’re feeling helpless, help)
Well there’s important work to do
& all you really have is time
(try to help somebody else)
Some of the work is legal, some of it is crimes

There’s nothing off the table anymore
(When they try to cramp your style)
When the field is gone nobody’s keeping score
The empire has no power, everyone has hit the showers
(You can get more with a smile)
& in the field instead of lawn a thousand different flowers
(& a gun than just a smile)

But possibility swings both ways
At the risk of sounding silly
There might be some better days ahead
If they can dig a hole
We can make a hill

Y'all please pray for us all today! Joshua is flying from Kansas City to Hawaii today! He has friends there he has known online for years (inc. a girl), and he is going to stay with them and acclimate and try to find a job, he says. He's 20, but he was homeschooled and has never gone anywhere alone before, beyond riding his bike to the store to buy a soda!

We need God to be with us all. Nicole is driving him to the KC airport, and Paul is with her, but he doesn't drive. I am staying here with Nathan. It's a 3 1/2 hour drive, and likely the time at the airport will be long and hard, so that they won't be home until tonight. Pray for safety for Nicole and Paul in the drive, and keep praying for Joshua as he "jumps off the cliff" into adult life.

I need like, one fucking liberal to stand up and say "the Liberal politicians I've supported are anti-speech and equally responsible for creating the gestapo forces that Trump had readily available to him on *Day 1* of his administration".

One of them.

There are no arguments against the above statement that don't rely on rank partisanship and ideological extremism. ~*BOTH*~ parties are anti-speech and pro-police state.

The only difference is *who they target* and *how flagrant they are*.

in reply to John

BTW - neither party is even remotely interested in listening to voters on this issue. Democrats *threw away the most important election in US history* because they were so deeply uninterested in listening to speech they disagreed with.

I know it doesn't feel like it right now, but we're lucky that Trump won: neoliberal fascism under Harris or her successor would have been a lot smoother, a lot slower, a lot more durable and a lot harder to burn to ash.

👁‍🗨 Israël, dont l’armée peine à recruter, fait appel à la diaspora


#Gaza #guerre #génocide

La campagne de recrutement désespérée d'Israël se heurte également à la colère croissante des Juifs de la diaspora. Comme l'a déclaré Rafael Shimunov, animateur d'une émission de radio juive de gauche à New York :
“C'est une période difficile pour certains de mes coreligionnaires de la diaspora. Ils applaudissent les Israéliens qui envoient leurs enfants commettre un génocide, mais n'enverraient jamais les leurs”.

Chinese blight in FL is already killing ton of orange orchards. It won't take that long.

Citrus greening disease (Chinese: 黃龍病; pinyin: huánglóngbìng abbr. HLB)

(AI) Citrus greening disease, also known as Huanglongbing (HLB), is a devastating bacterial disease caused by Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus and primarily spread by the Asian citrus psyllid, a small insect that feeds on citrus leaves and transmits the bacteria. This disease has severely impacted orange orchards globally, particularly in Florida, where it was first detected in 2005 and has since led to a 74% reduction in citrus production.
