Trump loves saying 'You're fired.' Now he's making it easier to fire federal workers


The Trump administration's plans to convert some 50,000 civil servants into at-will employees has some worried that essential government functions will be politicized.

Wham! - Last Christmas (Official Video)

Lyrics
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year
To save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year
To save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance
But you still catch my eye
Tell me, baby
Do you recognize me?
Well, it's been a year
It doesn't surprise me

Happy Christmas

I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying "I love you"
I meant it
Now I know what a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now
I know you'd fool me again

Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year
To save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year
To save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

Oh, oh, baby

A crowded room
Friends with tired eyes
I'm hiding from you
And your soul of ice
My god, I thought you were someone to rely on
Me? I guess I was a shoulder to cry on

A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
A man under cover, but you tore me apart
Now I've found a real love. You'll never fool me again

Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year
To save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day you gave it away
This year
To save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special

A face on a lover with a fire in his heart
I gave you my heart
A man under cover, but you tore him apart
Maybe next year I'll give it to someone—
I'll give it to someone special

Special
Someone
Someone
I'll give it to someone—
I'll give it to someone special

Who give me something in return
I'll give it to someone—
Hold my heart and watch it burn
I'll give it to someone—

I'll give it to someone—
I'll give it to someone special

I thought you were here to stay
How could you love me for a day
I thought you were someone special

Gave you my heart

I'll give it to someone—
I'll give it to someone—

Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
You gave it away

I'll give it to someone—
I'll give it to someone—

US farmers face a tough outlook as China's imports of various US agricultural products plummeted in May.

The trade war and China's concerns about the long-term relationship with the US could have deep implications for global supply chains and the US farm sector.

Capitalism is when the guy who builds a social media app and shares it freely with the world gets next to nothing for their effort while the fascist convicted criminal who uses their work makes billions.

Please, tell me again how capitalism breeds innovation. All it breeds are greedy psychopathic parasites (aka billionaires).

Shenzhen: The Silicon Valley of Hardware (Full Documentary) | Future Cities

Future Cities, a full-length documentary takes us inside the bustling Chinese city of Shenzhen.

We examine the unique manufacturing ecosystem that has emerged, gaining access to the world’s leading hardware-prototyping culture whilst challenging misconceptions from the west. The film looks at how the evolution of “Shanzhai” – or copycat manufacturing – has transformed traditional models of business, distribution and innovation, and asks what the rest of the world can learn from this so-called “Silicon Valley of hardware".

So I feel no reason to miss it!

Its just that now these cottages lie within the shadow of corporate skyscrapers which dominate the skyline.

For all the vilification "the deep web" gets (not that there's a clear demarcation), I see most of the harm lying on the surface!

Empire is losing the narrative and its grip on the masses.

Empire always pairs physical war with media propaganda campaigns.

And right now, the propaganda is propaganda-ing.

The toxic and manipulative abuser (i.e. United States Empire) will go to any lengths to try to maintain control and possession. Fortunately, more people in the imperial core are recognizing this.

"Some of y'all forget the reason we have food safety regulations is because companies used to do things like adding chalk to spoiled milk so it looked normal.
Regulations don't exist because governments enjoy them. They exist because pure unadulterated capitalism would kill us."

Here's a short story by Lord Dunsany, written in 1915, about the food of the day. It's pertinent.

THE FOOD OF DEATH

Death was sick. But they brought him bread that the modern bakers make, whitened with alum, and the tinned meats of Chicago, with a pinch of our modern substitute for salt. They carried him into the dining-room of a great hotel (in that close atmosphere Death breathed more freely), and there they gave him their cheap Indian tea. They brought him a bottle of wine that they called champagne. Death drank it up. They brought a newspaper and looked up the patent medicines; they gave him the foods that it recommended for invalids, and a little medicine as prescribed in the paper. They gave him some milk and borax, such as children drink in England.

Death arose ravening, strong, and strode again through the cities.

I have been waiting for a Trump era espionage novel. Just read A Spy Alone by former MI6, Charles Beaumont. Nice ripping yarn but also the best yet analysis of the current coup of globalized oligarchs and propagandists against "the masses" and citizens of every nation. It ain't east vs west; it's 1% against 99%.

I used those think of this sort of thing as a kind of personal insult.

I’ve decided instead that it’s just a reflection of the brokenness within the organization and that I am not going to be able to fix it.

It’s a clear message that the people who put the idiot there have no idea what they are doing either!

No need to stress, no need to try to change things. Just keep them from hurting you as best you can.
