This morning, as I was preparing our breakfast of pottage and stale bread, my 3-year-old tugged at my doublet and asked with furrowed brow:

‘Father, is it not true that in the absence of a sovereign power—whether it be Parliamentarian or Royalist—man is thrust into a condition of perpetual conflict, a war of all against all? And if so, are we not living amidst the very Leviathan Hobbes warned us of, yet without its unifying force?’

I nearly dropped the trencher. It’s moments like these that remind me: even the littlest among us can perceive the chaos of the Commonwealth when the bonds of social contract fray.

Children know.

Leaders from countries all over the world are starting to look at Free and Open Source Software options to move their local governments and cities away from the proprietary lock that American tech companies have on them. They no longer want to have to rely on America. Personally, as a Free and Open Source Software advocate, I love to see this. Many of us do. But a question for Trump supporters: How the fuck is this making America Great Again?

I know that I'm preaching to the choir, but Trump supporters are absolute fools.

HBDH Eziz Gabar Militia; “We Carried Out a Sabotage Action on a Factory Warehouse in Aydın!”


On the morning of June 22, the warehouse section of a factory located in the ASTIS industrial site in the Efeler district of Aydın was set on fire by the Eziz Gabar Militia using a sabotage technique.

As a result of this retaliatory action carried out in memory of our heroic comrades who fought selflessly and became martyrs in Ağrı, Batman and Şırnak, the factory was significantly damaged. The colonialist fascist Turkish state is mobilizing all its resources and carrying out operations against the freedom guerrilla in the four parts of Kurdistan, primarily in the common struggle of our peoples.

The fascist-occupier AKP-MHP gang regime, which is based on the policy of destruction and denial, continues to attack the people and revolutionaries within the scope of the collapse plan that has entered its 9th year. The political and military failures it has suffered have brought the fascist torturer AKP-MHP gang regime to the point of ending.

The occupying army, which can only confront the freedom guerrilla, which has proven its invincibility in every area it is present, especially in Northern Kurdistan, with thousands of soldiers and counter-strikes, dozens of warplanes, UAVs, UAVs and attack helicopters, is still unable to achieve the desired result by hitting the guerrilla resistance.

The unyielding resistance of the comrades who were martyred in the clashes that continued for days increases our determination to fight, and is also the reason for fighting until victory in our just cause. The military operations that are being expanded and continued in Bakur will be fruitless. It will grow the guerrilla resistance.

Until the fascist-occupier AKP-MHP gang regime and everyone who is a part of this dirty war pays the price for these attacks, it is our call to all young people and revolutionaries; Today is the day to grow the guerrilla and its resistance, to demonstrate the steel will of the united struggle against fascism and to take revenge for the martyred comrades.

We call on our patriotic and revolutionary people to actively resist until we uproot the colonialists and occupiers from the lands of Kurdistan and Türkiye!

Long live HBDH!
Long live our Guerrilla Struggle!Long live our Revolutionary People’s War!Long live our United Struggle!Martyr Namirin!

“In 1889 the Treasury Department—which then oversaw immigration—decided that a native-born child could not be sent out of the country with her foreign-born mother. So it admitted the foreign-born mother to take care of the citizen child.

“It was not ‘the intention of Congress to sever the sacred ties existing between parent and child, or forcibly banish and expatriate a native-born child for the reason that its parent is a pauper.’”

I was in grammar school from 1947-55. Every single student in our large (50+) classes had ALL communicable diseases — I even had pertussis for almost six months, which nearly killed me. The polio vaccine was a true miracle for the scourge it was for thousands. We have almost 80 years of successful history that proves the efficacy of vaccination. We simply cannot let one batshit crazy person, stupidly nominated and wrongly confirmed, affect our health this way.

The Barbarity of Solitary Confinement in South Carolina: Kevin Rashid Johnson


Both the United Nations and Courts all over have recognized that continuous confinement inside a cell for even brief periods is torture and has proven in extensive psychological studies to cause mental illness and organic brain damage.

There has been a broad outside and inside movement to reform and end solitary confinement in my home state of Virginia for over a decade. This struggle has led to laws being passed that require daily out-of-cell time for Va prisoners in solitary (1), and a pending federal class action lawsuit in which the presiding judge and the appeals court have found Va’s conditions in solitary to be unconstitutional and harmful to prisoners’ mental health. (2) Not so in South Carolina, where the conditions in solitary are far worse than anything in Va, and where I was recently
interstate transferred.

Not only are the conditions in SC’s solitary confinement units (euphemistically called “Restrictive Housing Units”) downright medieval, but there are no efforts to reform nor end them. Worse still, the corruption and retribution of SC administrative officials operate to stomp out any efforts by prisoners to bring attention to SC’s prison conditions.

I’ve been in SC since May 1, 2025 and have been thrown in solitary twice already, and have gotten to see and experience the barbarity of these units.

Although I was in general population when I left Va, I was thrown in solitary as soon as I arrived in SC. I was initially taken to SC’s Reception and Orientation institution called Kirkland. There I was thrown into a cold solitary cell with nothing but a filthy mattress and no clothes except a nylon smock. Not even underwear. When I protested that I would not accept meals and requested to call attorneys. I was transferred the next day to Perry Correctional (sic!) Institution, where I was again thrown in solitary. Approximately half of the buildings at Perry are solitary confinement units and prisoners are sent to Perry from all over the state to be held in solitary long term.

Here one is confined in a cold cell with a concrete slab raised about 6 inches from the floor. At night when the cells are left completely dark, bugs, spiders and mice crawl on and around one’s body. Prisoners have been held in solitary at Perry for years. My neighbor, Jimmy Causey, has been here for eight years.

There is no view outside the cells. We receive no outside exercise or fresh air. WHen I arrived at Perry on May 2d, the prisoners in solitary had been to outside exercise only five times this entire year. The denial of regular outside exercise in solitary standing alone, has been found unconstitutional by federal courts. While in other states solitary is characterized as 23/1 hours of in-cell confinement, in SC it is literally 24/7. The only times prisoners come out of their cells here is to shower for 15 minutes three times per week, which is often denied as well.

We can have no personal property, no personal books to read, no periodicals. We can’t make canteen purchases. Not even personal hygiene items. The only hygiene items we may use are state-issued toothpaste, toothbrush and soap. No deodorant, shampoo, or hair grease is allowed. One can’t groom or shave, and even could we there are no mirrors to see oneself. Yet the rules say our hair must be kept closely cropped.

We cannot purchase stationary to write loved ones. Only two outgoing letters are permitted per month. We are not allowed to communicate directly with the media. We cannot write to but one lawyer, and only if they are confirmed to be actively representing us in pending legal proceedings. These obstacles to communication obviously work to sever community and family ties in outright contradiction of any claims to rehabilitation and enabling anyone to reenter society as a healthy and productive member. And they prevent public exposure and accountability for the inhumane conditions in these prisons and units, and any prisoner from obtaining attorneys to assist them, whether to challenge discrepancies in their original criminal cases or to contest the conditions of their confinement (the latter being the obvious purpose of these illegal obstructions to communicate with lawyers).

The meals are disgusting and bland, non-nutritious (composed primarily of breads and pasta), repetitious and the portions insufficient. EVERYONE complains of constant hunger pangs and substantial weight loss. Not only are the general portions tiny, but as opposed to the three meals given on weekdays, only two meals are served on weekends. The two weekend meals are basically the same portions given on two of the weekday trays. Worse still, the time between the last meal and the meal the next day on the weekends is approximately 20 hours. This is illegal and literal torture. In fact courts have held that the dull continuous pain of prolonged hunger constitutes corporal punishment.

So prisoners in SC’s solitary sit idle, stripped of all fresh air, sensory stimulation, and diversionary activities day after day, for months to years on end, under the most blatant conditions of mental torture. I’ve not seen this extreme level of total denial of environmental stimulation and solitary confinement anywhere else in my 35 years of confinement. In fact, this sort of solitary was outlawed by federal courts in Va over 50 years in the landmark case of Landman v. Royster. (3)

Not only are the solitary conditions inhumane per se, but they’re coupled with physical abuses sanctioned by administrators. Prisoners are routinely gassed and beaten by guards. They’re hogtied and left naked in empty cells for hours on end. Of course hogtying has often proved fatal and has been banned in prisons for decades. (4)

I’ve observed others left in empty cells to sleep on bare concrete with no clothes except boxers for three days, for nothing but making noise by striking a cell door with their hands. In one case the prisoner only wanted to be taken outside so he could perform his wiccan prayers after months of prisoners in solitary illegally receiving no outside exercise.

To add greater insult to the mistreatment, food, medications, and showers are illegally used as punishment and to compel submission. One is denied meals, meds, and showers if they are not fully dressed and standing in the rear of their cell when guards arrive at their cells to provide these things. Prisoners are not required to be dressed and standing in this manner at any other times when guards come to their cells. The measure is calculated to use needed essentials as weapons and tools of forced compliance with arbitrary orders to instill docility and submission. Like training animals.. Or breaking slaves.

Suffering under these conditions for just days is literally torture. As it’s meant to be. SC’s prisoners need a support movement to end this abuse.

Dare to struggle Dare to Win!

All Power to the People!

Jeff Daniels does a good job playing Chamberlain in the movie "Gettysburg." And, I admit I don't know much about Chamberlain, he does seem to be a good man who fought one hell of a fight during that battle.

But the speech he gives at the beginning of the movie is such horse shit. Perhaps he sincerely believed it, but it's absolute nonsense. And the brutality and raping and pillaging of Yankee troops against Southern civilians time after time after time is evidence against these lies.

@GummyNerds there were so many decisions by the southern commanders that could have changed the outcome of that battle. The North was fortunate they made the wrong ones time after time.

That being said, Rufus Dawes was a badass, and the Iron Brigade basically saved the Union’s bacon. The South didn’t want to fight those Black Hats.

@GummyNerds well that’s really the story of battles, isn’t it? Having a superior position and better supplies.

The South could have ended that battle on day 1, but the failed to press their advantage, and that allowed the North time to retreat and set up their position on Semetary Ridge, the famous fishhook line. Once they had their position set, it was nearly impossible to drive the North out of it.

Reevaluating my password management

It never made sense to me to put password managers in the cloud. Regards to what you intend it to do, you’re making it accessible to a wider audience than necessary. And yet, I’m using iCloud. It’s time for a change.

I’m thinking of just running a locally hosted password manager on my home server and letting my devices sync with it somehow when I’m at home. I have a VPN into my home network when I’m away that automatically triggers when I leave the house, so even that’s not that big an issue, but I’m really not familiar with what’s gonna cleanly integrate with all my stuff and be easy to use. All I know is I wanna kill the cloud functionality of my setup.

I already have a jellyfish server so I figured I would just throw this onto that. Any suggestions?

If you’re happy with how Apple Password works for you, I can recommend StrongBox. It keeps all data in a KeePass2 database and integrates into Apple’s AutoFill API. That means it feels almost native when using it. No browser plugin needed. (At least not for Safari.) And you can decide how you sync the database file.
