Saying you support funding Israel's "defensive weapons" while opposing sending it "offensive weapons" is as nonsensical as saying you would never give a mass shooter guns and ammunition, but you would give him body armor to keep him safe from the police.

🎵 L Y R I C S 🎵: I always needed time on my own I never thought I'd need you there when I cry And the days feel like years when I'm alone And the bed where you lie is made up on your side
When you walk away, I count the steps that you take Do you see how much I need you right now?
When you're gone, the pieces of my heart are missing you When you're gone, the face I came to know is missing too When you're gone, the words I need to hear To always get me through the day And make it okay I miss you
I've never felt this way before Everything that I do reminds me of you And the clothes you left, they lie on the floor And they smell just like you I love the things that you do
When you walk away, I count the steps that you take Do you see how much I need you right now?
When you're gone, the pieces of my heart are missing you When you're gone, the face I came to know is missing too And when you're gone, the words I need to hear To always get me through the day And make it okay I miss you
We were made for each other Out here forever I know we were, yeah-yeah And all I ever wanted was for you to know Everything I do, I give my heart and soul I can hardly breathe, I need to feel you here with me, yeah
When you're gone, the pieces of my heart are missing you When you're gone, the face I came to know is missing too When you're gone, the words I need to hear Will always get me through the day And make it okay I miss you, mmm

Lyrics: I'm standing on the bridge I'm waiting in the dark I thought that you'd be here by now There's nothing but the rain No footsteps on the ground I'm listening but there's no sound
Isn't anyone trying to find me? Won't somebody come take me home?
It's a damn cold night Tryin' to figure out this life Won't you take me by the hand Take me somewhere new? I don't know who you are, but I I'm with you I'm with you, mm

Then he brought in a toy to play with on top of the duvet, instead of burrowing inside. Somehow I got more scratched up the last 20 minutes in bed than the previous 12 hours.
@ninapaleyNext time he's on top of the covers - get in the blanket and move your foot around under the blanket or wiggle your hand from underneath...that will absolutely rock his world! 😊
@FemaleIsNotAFeelingMomo was apparently played with like that as a kitten. He thinks feet under covers=toys. He’s usually gentle but has attacked and wounded my feet. So I’m not gonna play this game with the new kitten, despite how entertaining it is.
If you only read one article today, make it this one.
Excerpt: The biggest problem with removing evil from American culture and what’s left of our civilization is, quite frankly, the Democratic Party. Their mantra calls evil good, and good evil, and it is imperative, for them, that they have as much human depravity as possible. That is the source of their political power. townhall.com/columnists/markle…

Over a year ago, I posited that AI coding stuff isn't about coding or productivity. It's about some % of people who feel a stimulus-reward thing from using it, similar to how some people feel when gambling. It feels so overwhelmingly good to some % of people they don't even bother to measure if their AI stuff is actually doing anything useful, because of course it must be, because the feeling is so strong.
It seems more & more people are also finding this idea lately.
But I've also realized that it seems to apply to any of the prompt-style AI things, not just coding. There is some kind of slot machine playing mania (sorta, not exactly) thing it triggers in some % of people. I'm certain of it now.
If anything, it makes me feel a bit less angry and more sad towards the people with this AI prompt-query compulsion. It feels closer to when you see someone with a gambling addiction stuck at a gambling machine.
I've been pretty staunchly opposed to this wave of gen-AI since chatGPT launched in 2022, and never intentionally touched it until three months ago, when I finally felt like I needed to spend at least a little bit of time with it to understand/prove what I was opposed to. it almost *immediately* triggered an addiction response (of the gambling category, as you pointed out), to the point where within a week I could barely sleep, and all I could think about was prompting, explicitly like I needed to be using it 24/7 and trying to figure out the right way to extract quality output from it, under this sudden manufactured feeling of urgency.
luckily, i got burnt out on it pretty "quickly" (roughly a month) which forced me to step back, and had lived long enough to be able to identify what this cycle was. It was also tremendously helpful to both have had a long critical perspective built against the tech that I had now tested against, and a really high bar of personal work quality that I was able to use to categorize that output of these tools as "complete shit".
it's wild to me that as someone who was pretty publicly and vocally against the principle of the tech, this addiction loop still hit me at full force, on the very first prompt I ever fed it. for people without the life experience, critical lens, and body of high quality personal work to measure against, I can't imagine how many could possibly escape from the slot machine cycle. "if I can just figure out exactly how to word this prompt, it'll solve all my problems...". I wonder how those who do escape don't talk about it publicly out of shame (me, until this post).
the silver lining for me personally is that it did end up having some kind of positive effect on how I approach my work. reading through so much slop for a month re-lit a fire within me to be even more intentional and human in my work, whether through writing or code.
Me, I have next to no susceptibility to gambling-- for one thing, I understand too much about math, the odds of winning are so low the whole thing strikes me as contemptibly absurd-- and for another, I'm a digital artist so gut-wrenched by the uncanny valley effect of putting other people's work through a meat grinder and regurgitating it into a shambling frankenitation of art that it makes me feel physically ill, so I haven't even touched it. I've just been sitting here mystified like WHY EVEN...
If that's the type of effect it's having on people who aren't wired like me... good gawd, we're in deep shit.

"Israel killed more than 200 Palestinians in Gaza on Saturday, including 40 members of a single family. The official death toll in Gaza is now over 44,000, although experts believe that is a vast undercount of the true figure. Israel’s onslaught has continued to kill medical and aid workers in recent days, including three people with World Central Kitchen, the head of the intensive care unit at Kamal Adwan Hospital, a staff member with Save the Children, as well as Mahmoud Almadhoun, who co-founded the Gaza Soup Kitchen that has fed Palestinians suffering hunger due to Israel’s blockade of vital food aid. Almadhoun was killed in an Israeli drone strike and is survived by seven children, including a newborn baby. His brother Hani Almadhoun joins Democracy Now! to discuss what he calls a targeted assassination. 'My brother slowed down the ethnic cleansing of north Gaza, and that’s why he was taken out,' says Almadhoun. 'This is a war against the civilians in Palestine.'"

We can not continue to fight over money and silly tokens.
We need to ditch billions of #bullshitjobs and datacenters full of financial nonsense and to distribute money. Backed by all the wealth no longer wasted by financial warfare.
David Barton isn’t just a primary pitchman for the Ten Commandments law in Texas
His fingerprints appear on 28 bills that have cropped up before the legislatures in 18 states this year.
A data analysis of the bills exposes how their language, structure and requirements are inherently identical.
In dozens of instances, they match model legislation pitched by Barton verbatim.
At the Texas hearing, Barton’s eyes fixated on the cover of the rare 1782 Aitken Bible. “It also says it’s ‘a neat Edition of the Holy Scriptures for the use of schools,’” he continued. “It has the Ten Commandments.”
In actuality, Barton lifted language from Philadelphia printer Robert Aitken calling on Congress to sanction a Bible that could also be for “the use of schools.”
Christian nationalists have for years falsely claimed the Revolutionary-era printing includes a government promotion of Christianity.
Barton has long been accused of taking historical quotes out of context, and in 2012, the Christian publisher of his bestselling book on Thomas Jefferson ceased its production because “basic truths just were not there.”
Texas is one of three states in the last two years to pass a law requiring that the Ten Commandments be posted in public schools.
The mandates are part of a coordinated nationwide effort to overturn a 1980 Supreme Court ruling forbidding Kentucky from requiring Ten Commandments displays in classrooms.

First he snorted in irritation. His fur bristled like a surly and rebellious cat, disdainful of boxes and pyramids. Just like that, without even warning.
Then, for those who do not know, a kind of tender caress. Then the clawing, increasing in quantity and strength. And then, a whirlwhind of discontent. Before long, it was a runner. The fury of the wind was joined by a rain as if to tell the windstorm that it shared its rage. It threw men and leaves against the walls of the champas and, I swear, the foundations of the concrete pavilion creaked.
Wind and rain. Nowhere to turn. Better to be left in the middle of the fury than to risk the guillotine flight of the torn sheet metal as if defying the modest modesty of the galleries already cleaned, with paint and walls renovated.
But, strangely enough, the storm respected the periphery and concentrated in the center. There, where the skeleton of a pyramid rose not a few meters from the gravel.
As if to say: “No pyramids here”.
And the blankets that simulated the walls of the pyramid, swelled with that mixture of wings and sails that at times resembled a wandering ship and at times a lost aircraft, with no land in sight, only with the certainty that below was the ground waiting without haste, as if saying “just right here”.
We tried to talk to it, but, between the rain and the gale force winds, we barely managed to get it to let up long enough for the fellows who had climbed to the top to place the money sign to come down. Immediately, a strong, concentrated blowing blew the sails off and the blanket flew up the mountain.
“That’s how ghosts are born,” I thought.
We began to explain in a rushed manner that it was not to be left per se, but rather as an explanation of the policy. To reveal, that is. That there were no true or false gods. That, of itself, is going to be destroyed. Not only that one, but all the pyramids. Yes, in the whole and in the parts. Yes, in all the corners of the planet.
He slowly faded away, as if doubting our commitment.
He left later but not quickly, as if to say “if the human being does not comply, we, the parts of the first mother, will comply”.

SubMoy checked the construction and said: “It’s not going to fall easy”.
A compa, as it were, made a nick in one of the crossbeams with his machete. He only muttered: “It’s going to fall, it’s going to fall. It might delay, but it falls because it falls”.
“The most difficult thing will be the central column, it is very solid,” he added, “we will have to put a lot of strength, a lot of desire and not just a few of us, but many”.
“That is: in common and organized,” said a young painter. We all laughed, although we were still frightened by that irritated wind, who knows where it came from.
“That post is well rooted. Even if they knock it down, it will resprout. You have to pull it up to the roots,” said an elderly woman, planted in jars in front of the wooden construction, as if defying it.
“It is the soul of the system,” responded a companion to a girl’s question about the central mast, “the private property of the land, of the machines, of the houses, of the people, of nature, of dreams and nightmares, of the skies and the seas, of what is seen and what is not seen, of the world, therefore. It is not only at the foundation of the system. It is also in our head, in our heart and in our history.”
“But how many are coming?” they asked me.
“A good many,” I replied.
“But do they bring their will to fight?” they insisted.
“Saber,” I said to myself, “as SubMoy says: it remains to be seen.”
“Hey captain, is that thing going to be there all my life,” a militia woman asked me.
“No, how do you think, it’s for the Zapatista talk, why do you ask?”
“Because I think a soccer team is coming and that thing is in front of one of the goals, where our dining room is. So there will be neither game or food. The soccer game, whatever, but the food, well…”
The afternoon began to sprout from the trees. For an instant, the moon, the sun, the rain and the wind coincided, appearing before the mountain.
-*-
Is that going to be there forever?
Well, no, that’s why we are fighting. It might linger, but there are going to be more of us.
And in the wind followed the warning that the rain engraved on the earth:
“If the human being does not comply, we will comply, the parts of the first mother. The pyramid will fall.

Not far away in calendars and geographies, Palestine remained a tear of blood on the indifferent face of the world’s governments.
“This is an extremely serious charge against a #journalist. If he did not a participant in these events, this could be a brazen violation of the right of the press to gather news.” -- attorney Robert Balin
By JAKE OFFENHARTZ Updated 3:46 PM EDT, August 6, 2024
NEW YORK (AP) — "A New York City journalist was arrested on felony hate crime charges Tuesday after filming a pro-#Palestinian protest earlier this summer in which activists hurled red paint at the homes of top leaders at the #BrooklynMuseum.
"#SamuelSeligson, an independent videographer, was not involved in the #vandalism, but is accused of traveling in a car with the #activists and entering private property with them, according to a law enforcement official familiar with the case.
"The official spoke with The Associated Press on the condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to discuss the ongoing investigation.
"Leena Widdi, an attorney for Seligson, said New York Police Department officers twice raided Seligson’s Brooklyn apartment in the past week before he turned himself in early Tuesday.
"She described the arrest and use of a hate crime statute as an 'appalling' overreach by police against a journalist with a city-issued press credential. Seligson, who is Jewish, is a fixture at New York City protests who has licensed and sold footage to mainstream outlets, including Reuters and ABC News.
"'Samuel is being charged for alleged behavior that is protected by the First amendment and consistent with his job as a credentialed member of the press,' Widdi said in an email. 'What is even more concerning, however, is that this member of the press is being charged with a hate crime.'"
