I'm writing a story about hidden e-waste. Chips and electronics in products such as children's toys, shoes, clothes, etc.
Anyone has some funny / weird examples of products you don't expect to have chips / or that have no useful reason to have chips--but still do? Or examples of really throwaway electronics such as vapes?
ICE lawyers shouldn't hide their identities in court, and immigration judges shouldn't condone the practice.
This disturbing trend must be stopped immediately.

Three things that happened today:
- Benjamin Netanyahu’s governing coalition has fallen apart, leaving Netanyahu vulnerable to a vote of no confidence.
- Netanyahu’s corruption trial continued, having resumed on Monday after being delayed by a month by the attacks on Iran.
- Israel bombed Damascus, destroying its defense ministry headquarters.
- Oh would you fucking look at that, a fourth thing: Netanyahu’s trial was delayed again!
This absolute piece of shit will wage genocide, risk World War Three, and tear apart every neighboring country for the most venally corrupt reasons.

其实我对当事人的做法是比较反感的，在现实生活中遇到这种风格的人也会尽量远离（指跟比自己大这么多而且品行恶劣的人约炮、不注意保护隐私、抽烟等）。但是，在这场舆论风波中，我发现有大量谣言和已经确定为假的信息在疯狂传播，尤其是还有大量造黄谣的内容。可以说，这些谣言的严重程度已经远远超过最开始的事件本身了。这也是为什么我要做这份整理，试图留下一份正确的历史记忆。
我一向认为“真”是最重要的，实事求是是任何进一步讨论的基础。
这个说法一直在网上传播，却没有任何实证和合理的消息来源。梳理早期舆论，这极可能是来自: 早期用其他女生的视频谣传女方在飞机上邂逅男方 -> 某群体套模板编了个机票还是男朋友买的 -> 以买机票作为有男朋友的依据 -> 连男方在发声明的时候都以为女方在国内被骂是因为有男朋友。
如果没有男朋友也就根本不存在所谓的出轨情节。
这个说法非常荒谬，确定为假。用其他人的身份证开房既不可行也无必要，邀请方应该会给宙斯准备好住宿。“黄婷”这个名字来自早期有人在抖音上开直播冒称当事人及当事人男友，给的名字是“黄婷”。后来其他人挖出来女方真实的名字明明姓李，“黄婷”却被有意演变成了她母亲的名字。
（当时自媒体用的是“大连工业大学女生黄婷”）
男方的回应称not married, not in a relationship。婚姻情况很难公开撒谎，而且男方一直在一路公开嫖娼约炮，所以可以认为属实。如果有女儿，可能是前妻或前女友所生。
巴西牛排出自更早的时候另外一个老外（根据看到的说法是恋童癖、重度黄热病、性变态，还没有查到更完整的信息），在中文互联网上和本次的约炮事件关联在了一起。男方的回应中称have never said Chinese girls are easy。他之前如果说过，很容易被截图留证，所以可以认为属实。
另有一张截图是对男方发布的视频回复（评论）"chinese many easy girl"，用过telegram的都知道，绿色消息框、右侧、已读标志，这是截图者自己的发言。这里还有一个细节，图中是中文“视频”（其实不仅这次，之前有所谓老外说“easy girl”的例子，点进账号都发现是中文使用者）。不管是这尴尬的英语水平，还是用个tg都还要专门装中文语言包，我只想说，学好基础的英语真的很重要。
说起来telegram的这种随拍的圆形短视频甚至没有配文功能，就是按下按钮开始录，松开按钮立刻发送。
纯假，鉴定为某些群体趁机造黄谣发泄兽欲了。有些网站上的视频剪辑进去了一段戴着链子的，是东南亚人，跟本次事件没有任何关系。
多说一句，我认为有这种性癖没有任何问题，但是通过对现实中的人造黄谣来满足自己的性癖就非常下作了。作为正常人，只会因为现实中有人拿这个造黄谣觉得膈应、影响看片兴致了。
基本假。确实有一闪而过的大概1秒，是镜头从下往上扫过然后停留在脸，女方没穿衣服只用手挡着胸。这里并不确定女方是否知道镜头在对着她脚的时候已经开始录了。其他最多就是在床上盖着被子。黄谣里传的后入等内容完全不属实。
纯假，这件事至少在搞出开除的新闻之前，在其他国家毫无热度。
假。没有这种规定，公告格式是各个学校自己定，清华的退学公告就是姓+学号，北邮甚至还有只写学号的。
假。退学公告里面两条理由，第一条用的是“（六）学校规定的不能完成学业、应予退学的其他情形”，这条里面的“（四）未经批准连续两周未参加学校规定的教学活动的”才可能适用于旷课。即使旷课这一说法本身，也缺乏事实支撑，只是部分网友根据需要公告送达作出的推断。逻辑上讲，公告送达只能推断开除后一段时间可能存在旷课，不能说明开除前存在旷课。如果已经大四，甚至可能本身就没什么课需要上了，假如是被家长接回家保护+断网+被开盒手机号被轰炸，也可能出现联系不上。
第二条是该校自己校规里面的“（六）与外国人不正当交往，有损国格、校誉的，视情节给予记过及以上处分”，不用再多说了。顺便一提，这条的上面还有“（二）学习期间发生未婚性行为者，给予记过及以上处分”，李同学同样违反了这条校规。
(校规)
从能够确认的已知信息来看，这本身只是一起约炮/肏粉事件。但由于双方的国别原因，引起了部分群体的愤怒，于是一环套一环地逐步炮制了飞机上邂逅当晚就上床了、飞机票还是男朋友买的、明知已婚、用母亲的身份证开房、狗链、12国热搜、视频配文easy girl、被称为“巴西牛排”等猎奇、背德、辱华内容，以扩大影响力、激起更大规模人群的愤怒和攻击女性群体。在事情闹大回过味来发现不占理后，又制造了开除是因为旷课、害她的是“支持者”和（反对开除、反对曝光名字的）媒体等说法来挽尊。
当事人被学校开除主要是因为巨大的负面影响，但分析最终造成如此巨大影响的原因，无底线的谣言相比其本人的行为恐怕占了更大的比重。

Trump is stuck. This Epstein debacle has accidentally (for him) and completely ripped the mask off what American Zionism is.
You cannot be unfailingly in support of Israel without unfailingly being a child rapist and murderer or protecting them.
It's just that simple.
Sorry, Zionists, you worship subhuman trash that bought you lock, stock, and barrel by playing a word game with your Bible and their printing presses. They love nothing more than winning through semantics and technicalities and every day Zionists that continue to support these tunnel-digging, kid-raping, well-poisoning, coin-clipping, porn-proliferating, drug-dealing garbage people prove how stupid and worthy of the disdain jews feel for them that they really are.

刚刚过去的端午节，也是我的农历生日——是的我和孟尝君同一天生日。然而就在这天我和家里人互相祝福的时候，还是忍不住劝他们少用“端午安康”这种近些年出现的生造词。
关于“端午安康”这一说法本身，已有不少文章做了详细辨析，不是本文重点，这里只是简要总结：这一说法最早大约出现于2015年，是网络营销号假托“非遗专家”之名声称端午节不能说“快乐”要说“安康”。这种理由实则狗屁不通，一是端午民俗先于屈原投江，是在后来的发展中逐渐合并，二是自古以来端午佳节就洋溢着喜庆氛围，快快乐乐过端午才是中华传统。
尽管如此，在那个虚假信息很容易病毒式传播的年代，这种生造出来的说法很快就广泛传播，甚至在很多正式和官方场合，从此也只见“端午安康”。
文化工作者一定要有文化。
对于端午祝福语的争议，一种常见的表态是息事宁人，“别吵了别吵了，你想说什么都可以”。对于不说“端午安康”的人来说，这像一种防御性的态度：你说不能用“端午快乐”，我说用什么都可以，别争了。对于说“端午安康”的人来说，这更像是一种得了便宜还卖乖：好比一个侵略者占据了别人的地盘，然后还摆出一副占据道德高地的姿态说别打了别打了就这样了。
我的态度则不同，我就是要大大方方、旗帜鲜明地反对“端午安康”这种生造词。
其一，“安康”不管在古汉语还是在现代汉语都不是常用词，更没有作为节日庆祝语的用法。这种生硬的新搭配，是对语言与文化的破坏。
其二，微观角度看，一个人使用什么祝福语属于个人自由，但是宏观角度来看，大规模改变节日祝福语和节日导向就是一种移风易俗。尤其是，如果一部分人群认为只能使用“安康”而另一部分人群认为用什么都可以，最终的结果就是为了追求稳妥，公共领域的表达将全部变成“端午安康”——这种现象其实已经在发生了。这就是在减少公众的快乐、损害公众的自由。我们不能再失去一个可以快快乐乐度过的节日了。
其三，从文化史的角度，任由“端午安康”取代“端午快乐”将成为一段耻辱。其实民俗重构、当代观念反向植入传统并不是什么稀罕事，例如七夕由于某家针织厂的运作变成情人节。但是“端午安康”这个案例的情况尤为恶劣：这一“新民俗”来自网络谣言与虚假信息，而且还是攻击性、排他性、恐吓性的谣言。如果任由一种“新民俗”以这种方式登大雅之堂、改变旧民俗，让“端午快乐”从公共领域消失、让大众不能欢庆端午，那么当未来回顾这段文化变迁史，将会是何等的屈辱。
如果仍然觉得说“端午安康”没什么，试想一下，假如过年的时候也有一大群人突然跟你说“新年康健”，公共领域的祝福也全变成了“祝全国人民新春康健”，你不觉得别扭吗？你还能淡定，还能觉得说什么都无所谓吗？

“Israel” is Digging its Own Grave, and the Ongoing Zionist Massacres in Gaza Only Hasten the Defeat of the Occupation abolitionmedia.noblogs.org/203…
“Israel” is Digging its Own Grave, and the Ongoing Zionist Massacres in Gaza Only Hasten the Defeat of the Occupation
In his response to questions received by the Masar Badil, the Palestinian Alternative Revolutionary Path Movement, Khaled Barakat, member of the Executive Committee of the movement, said that “The genocide against the Palestinian people, particularly in the Gaza Strip, ongoing for over 21 months—including bombardment, starvation, and destruction—has failed to achieve its military and political objectives for the Zionist entity. Instead, it has deepened its global isolation and fueled waves of popular and official anger against the occupation. “Israel” is now headed toward a phase of self-destruction following its economic and political degradation,” Barakat said. “Its utter moral bankruptcy is now clear to all, and no propaganda campaigns will be able to restore illusions about the nature of the Zionist project as an illegitimate racist, aggressive and expansionist regime.”
“The enemy army is facing a strong, unified Palestinian resistance, ready to fight for many years if necessary,” Barakat emphasized. “The Palestinian resistance forces continue to bravely confront the occupation army using flexible, creative and courageous combat tactics across various fronts. They affirm their ability to continue this prolonged battle with their united will that transcends division, which creates the greatest fear for the enemy, as it will not succeed in breaking the unity of the internal front in the Gaza Strip.”
Barakat affirmed that “The real negotiations are taking place through fire in Khan Younis, Jabalia, and Beit Hanoun. Our people trust their resistance, which is waging a political battle in Doha despite all the pressures imposed upon them. They know that their representatives of the resistance will never accept terms of surrender imposed by the U.S. and the Zionist entity and are certain their trust and steadfastness will be rewarded.”
“The battlefield dictates the terms, and no matter how intense the political and regional pressures become, the resistance holds the initiative and negotiates from a position of strength, readiness to fight and sacrifice, backed by broad popular support inside and outside Palestine,” Barakat said.
“The resistance insists that any agreement must include a complete withdrawal of occupation forces from Gaza, the lifting of the siege, and the release of hundreds of leaders and cadres from the prisons of the occupier. Liberation movements and solidarity forces with the Palestinian people must escalate their support for the resistance’s position both on the ground and in the ongoing negotiations,” he emphasized, calling on movements around the world to heighten their actions and organizing at a critical moment for the Palestinian people confronting genocide.
“The Zionist enemy wants to eliminate the captured Zionist prisoners while keeping resistance leaders and Palestinian prisoners with high sentences behind bars,” Barakat said, noting that ‘Israeli’ officials have little interest in actually releasing the prisoners held by the resistance. “Every prisoner exchange negotiation exposes the enemy’s duplicity and its attempt to impose humiliating conditions. But the resistance knows the value of its cards and insists on the release of top leaders and national symbols, rejecting any deal that does not reflect a balance of deterrence and the stature of the resistance.”
In the West Bank, Barakat noted, “Settler paramilitary gangs are sponsored and given free rein to run amok, invading, assaulting and killing Palestinians while stealing their land. These vicious settler paramilitaries are fully supported and backed by the ongoing arrest and assassination raids of the Zionist military, the closures imposed throughout the West Bank, and the destruction of the refugee camps of Jenin, Tulkarem and Nour Shams.”
“As this destruction continues, the Palestinian Authority continues to market itself as a solution to the Israelis for the ‘day after’ in Gaza, despite the reality that the Zionist officials have repeatedly dismissed them. The Palestinian Authority in Ramallah is rejected by our people; the next day in Gaza belongs to the Palestinian people, not to any forces that collaborate with the occupation. The aftermath of the PA’s security coordination with ‘Israel’ is seen in the escalating destruction in the West Bank, while the PA continues to imprison and arrest resistance fighters and suppress all movements to confront the occupation. ‘Removing pretexts’ for the occupation has led to nothing but encouragement for the settlers to escalate their crimes,” Barakat said.
“The ‘Israeli’ enemy, backed by the Trump administration, has left our people with no other option than the path of resistance. In fact, the United States bears primary responsibility for the ongoing genocide in the Gaza Strip,” Barakat said. “From the launch of the ‘Deal of the Century’ to the complicity of successive U.S. administrations, Washington has played the most critical role in enabling ‘Israel’ to continue its crimes—not only through military aid but also through the political immunity imposed by U.S. imperialism, that prevents any real international accountability.”
“Every American missile dropped by Israeli warplanes on our people in Gaza causes a massacre. This Palestinian blood is on the hands of Trump and before him, Biden. And every American missile that does not explode is turned by the resistance into 100 explosive devices,” Barakat said. “While Gaza is being pounded by American ‘smart’ bombs, the resistance continues to recycle ammunition and turn it into tools of retaliation, reflecting a spirit of defiance and innovation in the face of the killing machine. This reality also exposes Washington’s complicity as a direct partner in the massacres.”
Barakat further noted that, “While U.S. imperialism has long sponsored and directed the Zionist project in the region in order to advance its goals and create a giant colonial military base in the heart of our region, the current U.S. position also reflects a level of complete submission on the part of the war criminal President Donald Trump, administration officials and members of Congress to Zionist lobby organizations and donors like Miriam Adelson.”
“Trump is merely a puppet in the hands of the Israeli lobby, manipulated by Zionist organizations as they please, reflecting a level of corruption that transcends even the traditional sponsorship of the Zionist entity. Today, U.S. political decision-making reflects imperialism in crisis and a flagrant disregard for even the interests of people in the United States, for the sole benefit of a colonial settler project imposed upon our region,” Barakat said.
“The United States and ‘Israel’ want to reshape the region under the slogan of a ‘New Middle East.’ But the truth is that the Middle East is changing in favor of the peoples, not the illegitimate regimes that Washington and Tel Aviv seek to entrench. Normalization with the Israeli enemy is now more distant than ever, despite all attempts to impose it with both hard and soft power alike,” Barakat said.
“The collapse of recent normalization projects and the rise of boycott and popular resistance movements—from the Gulf to the Maghreb—reflect a deep strategic shift in the consciousness of the peoples, who no longer accept that their region be managed by a disguised Zionist colonialism.”
In Lebanon, Barakat noted, “If Netanyahu’s claims about ‘humbling Hezbollah’ were true, why then is the U.S. State Department holding a meeting with 30 countries to discuss and coordinate to confront the growing capabilities of Hezbollah? This is the 14th such meeting since 2014. And why is northern Palestine still devoid of settlers to this day?”
“The glaring contradiction between the Zionist victory narrative and the facts on the ground reveals a crisis of confidence within the Israeli security establishment. Northern Palestine is militarily occupied but liberated from settlers by the deterrent power of Hezbollah and the ongoing confrontation on the Lebanese front, which gains more popular support with each new Zionist breach,” Barakat said.
Barakat further said that “Yemen’s military capabilities today are sufficient to burn all oil facilities in the region. Western companies sending ships to the ports of occupied Palestine must understand that Yemen is very serious about its anti-genocide blockade, and the positions and patience of the Yemeni people should not be tested. So long as this continues, a new phase of escalation is coming—and it will not be in Europe’s interest.”
“Sana’a is redrawing the boundaries of the struggle for sovereignty and liberation. What was once seen as a symbolic threat has become a field reality that disrupts the calculations of the West. If intransigence and Western support for the occupation continue, Yemen’s response will cross the seas, and Europe will pay the economic and political price for the crimes of imperialism,” Barakat said.

In Bad Therapy , bestselling investigative journalist Abigail Shrier argues that the problem isn't the kids — it's the mental health experts. Mental health care can be lifesaving when properly applied, but that is not what's happening. Instead, children experiencing the normal pangs of adolescence and their anxious parents are seeking answers from therapists, who are only too happy to explore what might be wrong — and to make money doing so. No industry seems to turn away from the possibility of exponential growth, and our mental health industry is no exception. It asks children, again and How do you feel? Are you sure? By treating the well, it is making them sick, feeding normal kids with normal problems into the mental healthcare pipeline. It is minting patients faster than it can cure them. Drawing on extensive research and interviews with doctors, parents, therapists and young people, Shrier enumerates the dangerous side effects of unnecessary or poorly executed mental health care. With clear eyes and compassion, she examines ways worried parents who think they must indulge their child's every feeling make matters worse, and she offers liberating advice for raising emotionally resilient and independent children. Packed with relatable stories, devastating insights, and common-sense conclusions, Bad Therapy is a must-read for anyone concerned about protecting the next generation."
