Next Saturday could see a mass demonstration against the proscription of Palestine Action with the Metropolitan Police warning they will make mass arrests of people in breach of the Terrorism Act's prohibition of any support for a proscribed organisation.
If the numbers that are expected turn up this will push PA proscription arrests over 1000 & will further demonstrate Yvette Cooper's anti-democratic credentials.
Is the Country and the World ready for the next #space #disaster from either #SpaceX or #BlueOrigin? Putting humans atop giant roman candles and hurdling them off into space is hard, and it is dangerous, and the fact that neither of these Companies has lost a life yet doesn't mean they won't tomorrow (or the next day).
Complacency is a cancer, and we (the collective us) have become complacent, just assuming that SpaceX builds perfect launching machines.
A disaster is coming. I don't know when, but I do know when it happens lives will be lost and lives will be changed.
Went to the Nat Hist museum....reminded of how bright, inquisitive, curious and full of discovery our species is. Why do we have to put up with all the ignorant, rotten psychotic assholes who we LET "run things"??? Meanwhile....will we go extinct before we figure this out? portside.org/2025-08-03/sunday…
A pair of #JeffreyEpstein’s victims blasted the #Trump admin & the #DOJ for their attempts to unseal grand jury testimony in the #criminal case against the late financier, saying govt officials haven’t listened to the voices of people who were harmed by his actions.
The 2 victims, who weren’t identified, asked in separate letters filed in a Manhattan court Monday, that any files related to Epstein be reviewed to protect their privacy….
In one of the letters, an #Epstein victim [#survivor] said they were writing “in disdain, disgust & fear” of how the #DOJ has dealt with the promise to release information in the case, saying the situation should have been handled with “more respect towards & for the victims.”
“I am not some pawn in your political warfare,” said the *victim. “What you have done & continue to do is eating at me day after day as you help to perpetuate this story indefinitely. Why not be completely transparent? Show us all the files with only the necessary redactions! Be done with it & allow me/us to heal. You protect yourself & your powerful & wealthy ‘friends’ (not enemies) over the victims, why?”
The #US on July 18 asked US District Judges Richard M. Berman & Paul Engelmayer to release transcripts of the proceedings in the case against #Epstein & his associate, #GhislaineMaxwell, & both judges have given *victims until Tuesday to respond to the requests.
Natalie Baldassarre, a spox for the #DOJ declined to comment. #Trump has acknowledged a friendship with Epstein, but says it ended years before Epstein’s death.
Bloomberg News reported last week that the #FBI redacted Trump’s name & those of other high-profile individuals from govt files related to #JeffreyEpstein, citing 3 people familiar w/the matter….The names were withheld under privacy protections because those individuals, including #Trump, were private citizens when the federal investigation into #Epstein began in 2006, the people said.
Another *victim asked Berman to have a third party review any documents to ensure no victims’ names or likenesses are revealed through the process, saying that it appeared the #DOJ’s priority is to protect “wealthy men.”
“To learn that our own president has utilized thousands of agents to protect his identity & these high-profile individuals is monumentally mind-blowing,” the victim wrote. “That is their focus? Wow!”
One of the most effective misinformation tactics antivaxxers use is to quote legitimate news sources out-of-context in order to convey a biased narrative.
Studies suggest that news editors often contribute to this problem by publishing clickbait headlines that are easily weaponized by antivaxxers.
"Top health expert says vaccinated people are spreading Covid variant" is a headline that was often used by major outlets.
The full context in the article was: "Data shows that vaccines reduce transmission. However, some experts warn that vaccinated individuals may still be capable of contracting & transmitting Covid."
Given that presenting legitimate sources out of context has been shown to be a prevalent and effective misinformation tactic, it is critical that news editors stop undermining their science writers by using clickbait headlines that strip articles of much needed nuance and context.

I really need to learn a keyboard-centric workflow and I think part of that would include learning a tiling window management system. But I'm hoping to migrate my main system from Arch to Guix once I devote time to learning it.

if modern slavery is enforced on us by things like surveillance cameras, cellphone addiction, drugs, dna manipulation, school indoctrination and oppression
we can free ourselves by attacking each one of these elements
surveillance cameras can be physically destroyed our outsmarted by masks, etc
we attack cellphone addiction by going onto cellphones, advising users
avoid drugs, esp "meds"
dna manipulation is avoided by rejecting vaccines
school indoctrination is addressed by home schooling
This revenue would come from us paying higher prices for airplanes. It’s just another tax on us. Private jets - sure, but the majority of this 1€ trillion would come from us, plebs flying to Mallorca on holidays.
Do you have any sources for those claims? It seems crazy to me that the majority of European air travel is American companies flying consultants. That can't be true.
President Trump’s approach to diplomacy has shocked the world. Just in the last several days, he has levied new, grave threats against Russia, Brazil, and now India—among others—in an apparently flailing attempt to squeeze a modicum of “success” out …

@Ann1944, the world can exist without US products if needed, but the US can't exist without the products from the rest of the world- That is easy to understand like 1 + 1 = 2, except for a guy which think that his policy make medicaments 10.000% cheaper.
bats are really only dependable from behind without them seeing it. What happened here is going to happen a lot if you are the inferior /smaller fighter.
@IceCubeSoup still run a risk of it getting grabbed. Best she could have done was kept her distance and just keep swing like an autist, just to prevent the fight. There was no feinting or anything here lol
