Itโ€™s so frustrating that there is this illusion that we are all 49%/49% right now. Us versus them, good versus bad, and itโ€™s all because of the BS that is the electoral system. Itโ€™s very likely 70% versus 30% and weโ€™re just not seeing representative government.Thereโ€™s just no common sense right now

In โ€œThe Red Devilโ€ a play written by Antoine Rault there is a conversation between Colbert (Minister of Finance under Louis XIV) and Mazarin. The contents of this exchange have gone into the annals of history > Colbert: โ€œWhen trying to find money, there is always a moment when messing about is no longer enough. Please, Lord High Treasurer, tell me how one can manage to spend more when already up to oneโ€™s neck in debtโ€ฆโ€ -Mazarin: โ€œWhen you are a simple mortal, of course, and swamped in debt, you are sent to prison but the Stateโ€ฆ well the State is a different kettle of fish. The State cannot be thrown in prison. And so the debt increases! Every State does that.โ€ Colbert: โ€œOh really? Is that what you think? However, we need money and how can you find any when youโ€™ve already devised every imaginable tax?โ€ -Mazarin: โ€œWe create othersโ€. Colbert: โ€œWe canโ€™t tax the poor more than we do already.โ€ -Mazarin: โ€œYes, thatโ€™s true.โ€ Colbert: ยซSo, what about the rich?ยป -Mazarin: ยซWe canโ€™t tax the rich either. They would stop spending. A rich person who spends feeds hundreds of poor peopleยป. Colbert: โ€œSo, what should we do?โ€ -Mazarin: โ€œColbert, your reasoning is completely illogical! Lots of people are neither one thing nor the other, neither poor, nor richโ€ฆ French people work in the hope of becoming rich but dreading being poor! Those are the people we should be taxing, more and more! They are the ones! The more you take from them, the more they work to make up for itโ€ฆ That well never runs dry.โ€

Some people talk about minimizing social media time and the associated doomscrolling, but every day Mastodon reminds me of how many kind, caring people there are. And how many I'm privileged to know on here. (And how many have adorable cats. Or dogs. Or goats.) People who appreciate the beauty around us; people who want to save the environment; people who want a good life for everyone.

It lifts me up, even when the news is horrific. Thank you all.

Feeling overwhelmed, like the worst of us make the rules for the rest of us? Like empathy feels like a curse right now? It just hurts, and you feel helpless?

You are worth fighting for. Sometimes winning doesn't look glamorous, it just looks like not giving up. Care for yourself, for the ones you love, being strong and feeling strong are not the same thing, just don't quit. I love you all, I'm sorry it's hard, but we need each other, community is essential.

Today when about to start one of the shows on my stage at this festival, an intern who looked like she must still be in high school full out dropped and busted one of the cameras another team was supposed to be recording with. She was clearly horrified and on the verge of tears but luckily her supervisor was very chill about it basically saying "ya live and ya learn!"

Can Europe Build Its Own Atomic Arsenal

Following the Russian invasion of Ukraine and the on-and-off Russian nuclear threats, scholars have been analyzing Europe's defense capabilities against Moscow's huge nuclear warhead fleet.

@pat There are enough nukes that would lead to at the very least the entire collapse of civilization. Keep in mind the average H-bomb is between 100kt and 10mt though over 50mt bombs have been exploded. This makes Hiroshima and Nagasaki look like a fire cracker, and the Russians have 5000 or so, not sure what our current count is, and it's hard to say how accurate either is, but suffice it to say it would not be good for humanity. There is the nuclear winter theory, it's hard to know exactly how much dust would be churned into the upper atmosphere for how long, there is just how large of an area would be rendered uninhabitable after the explosion of all arsenals. These are all things that speculating on in detail is somewhat fruitless and there are some scientific experiments that are better left untried.

I'm not convinced. The earth is massive, there are a lot of people living in mountains who will never really be affected by anything. They're going to keep reproducing and keep teaching their kids how to read and write. What's really at risk is long and complex supply chains - especially those which depend on esoteric knowledge, like chip fabs. That said, there's a pretty good chance of those surviving as well, because while it is esoteric, it's also going to be the second thing every remaining country thinks of, after "food, water, shelter"...

@cjd @nanook yeah, I mean it sure wouldn't be easy and average lifespan would go down to like 20, maybe 30 years, but we'll definitely recover eventually. And considering that practicality every human society in recorded history developed some form of written language within like 1000 years sinc domestication of plants and animals became a thing, I'm not very concerned there with.
We are way more resilient bunch than most of us realize.

@cjd @nanook oh absolutely. The high-trust city folk will be wiped out, that's fosho. After all, when you hit the big red button you target the population centers. Seems kinda obvious.
I'll prolly be relatively good, at least for a while. Have a chunk of strategically insignificant land in the shithole of the Philippines. Even made friends with the local tribesmen and their shaman. We can start repopulating right there lol

@pat @Caleb James DeLisle In another half billion years our Sun will have expanded to the point where it boils all the oceans off and fries any remaining life. So my take is we had better develop interplanetary and even intersolar ability soon or assuming somehow we don't kill ourselves off sooner surely we and all other life here will disappear then. It's a bit depressing to me that we haven't discovered intelligent life elsewhere because I'm not sure it exists here.

@pat Based upon present day genetic variety, and I know visually it appears there is a lot but really it's very little for a species of our complexity, it is estimated that between 900,000 to 800,000 years ago there were fewer than 1000 individuals world-wide and that condition persisted for 100,000 years, so yea we "survived" but by a hair, and now are genetic diversity is reduced to the point where our ability survive something of similar severity would be doubtful.

Business is really booming for me right now. ๐Ÿ‘€ I keep half joking about needing to find a real job at some point but it has kind of hit me that somehow all these not real jobs have become a vocation of sorts because people will ask me an obvious question about... whatever it is... and I'll think "how could they not know this?" then I realize "oh I'm only thinking this because I've been doing this for ten years and this is their first time."

Corporations that publicly endorsed Trump's megabill. These are not companies that supported the bill by donating to the politicians that voted for it (although most did that too). These are companies that endorsed the bill publicly and were featured on a White House webpage. People should know the companies that made this choice.

The worst part about living through livestreamed genocide, is how it pervades everything I touch. The general BDS stuff is of course there.

But it is the other things, like watching what should be normally a wholesome father-daughter anime Kakushigoto becomes tinge with sadness that many many many fathers and daughters will never see each other again.

Comedy romcom anime? Can't have that if you are being ethnically cleanse.

Sports anime? How many fucking times do I have to read about a Palestinian football player getting their limbs blown off?

How do the shitlibs complicit in this genocide live with themselves? #DeathDeathToTheIDF #Palestine #Genocide

Fascism will not be beaten with joy.
Fascism will not be beaten by voting.
Fascism will not be beaten by Democrats, or bipartisanship, or the courts, or any other state institution.

Fascism will be beaten by the construction of dual power, underground organization, and the use of violence when necessary to resist fascist assaults.

Many liberals supported the very deconstruction of international law that happens right before literally every single fascist takeover.

Fascism always begins in places where nobody cares about. Last time, it was Spain and Ethiopia. Now, it's Ukraine and Gaza.
