I remember getting a hold of a copy of Papillion on a vacation with my family when I was a kid and all those prisoners stored objects up their ass, which made no physical sense to me, so I went to my father and asked him if you could store objects in your asshole and the look he gave me I will never forget," WHAT? Why are you asking me that?" I explained and his response was, "that's a good reason to stay out of prison."
Greece: Revolutionary Prisoners Welcome the Liberation of George Abdallah
Following the release of Georges Abdallah and his arrival in Lebanon on July 25, several revolutionary prisoners held in Greece welcomed this announcement, which comes after more than 40 years of imprisonment in France. Anarchist prisoner Nikos Maziotis (left in the photo) wrote a statement on August 2 to celebrate the news.
[…] “Your release from prison is one of the greatest pieces of good news and has enormous meaning for all of us who are part of the international anti-capitalist, anti-state and anti-authoritarian movement. Because good news for one is good news for everyone, it is good for the movements, the peoples in struggle, the poor, the proletariat and the activists incarcerated in prisons, as is of course the opposite for bad news. And the fact that you came out of prison unshakeable, without any questioning of your struggle, is a huge political and moral victory for all of us. »
Similarly, former member of the November 17 Revolutionary Organization and Marxist prisoner Dimitris Koufontinas sent a message after the announcement of the Arab communist’s release.
[…] “Today is a day of immense joy. The beautiful news of your liberation has passed through our cells. I will not speak of liberation. You have always been free of mind, soul, heart, as are those who resist. Only now have they been forced to free your body, to join your brothers in the struggle for a standing Lebanon, and a liberated Palestine. The arch-terrorists, the murderers, the colonialists, the arch-despoilers of the peoples have not succeeded in slandering you by calling you a terrorist or a criminal. Your only crime was to be and always to be a revolutionary, not to have yielded, not to have deserted for a single moment your great responsibility. »
Suite à la libération de Georges Abdallah et son arrivée au Liban le 25 juillet dernier, plusieurs prisonniers révolutionnaires détenus en Grèce ont salué cette annonce qui intervient après plus de 40 ans d’emprisonnement en France.

A new study suggests that material from Earth's core is leaking into the mantle and reaching the surface. The research, which challenges the long-held belief of an impassable core-mantle boundary, is based on the discovery of primordial isotopes like helium-3 and ruthenium-100 in volcanic rocks.
Strong new evidence suggests that primordial material from the planet’s center is somehow making its way out. Continent-size entities anchored to the core-mantle boundary might be involved.

I've worked my entire adult life: over 15000 days straight without unemployment. In all those days I've always been a doer, not a director - even when the job was being a director. I'm very hands on. I still don't know what it is about those who cannot do anything that gets them all on the same wagon shouting, "This will revolutionize the thing I could never do and really don't understand!" The best explanation I've heard for this type of mob mentality is, "They don't know what they don't know."

This week’s student dispatch from the collapsing citadel of American academia announced the Trump administration has forced Ivies Columbia and Brown to cough up their most highly guarded data: every applicant’s grades, test scores, and race. It’s like the Ivy League’s version of a TSA cavity search. The universities also had to promise —cross their hearts and hope to lose funding— that they will stop using race or even sneaky race proxies in admissions.
Merit was in the news again. Yesterday, the Times —crying in its blackberry Ripple— ran another unintentionally encouraging story, headlined, “Columbia and
The Times’ hysterical, over-the-top reaction was that President Trump was personally “destroying diversity” by enforcing race-neutral policies. The rest of us thought, well isn’t that the POINT?
Far from being proud of their diversity schemes, the Ivies have long hidden the statistical byproducts of their murky, secretive, rigged admissions programs.
Oh, they trumpet their outsized minority populations from gothic towers, but have clung to their internal data on scores and GPAs more tightly than a hobo clinging to his final fifth of Jack Daniels amidst a “mostly peaceful” BLM protest.
They were wise to hide that data. The numbers betray the narrative. The moment you stack GPAs and SATs side-by-side with race and admission rates, the curtain falls off the “holistic” wizard.
The Ivies understand “disparate impact” better than anyone, and knew the real figures would show racial bias instead of racial neutrality. They wished to create an illusion that qualified black candidates were unrepresented; not prove in hard numbers that they were actually preferencing underqualified blacks over qualified whites and asians.
That’s why this is so huge. Trump has thrown down a dollar-stuffed gauntlet: if you want federal funds, you must prove you are following federal law. Not that they must show their work, the whole scam comes to a screeching halt. Yale law professor Justin Driver said morosely, “The Trump administration’s ambition here is to send a chill through admissions offices all over the country.” Precisely.

The bodies were left to rot... en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sand_Cre… @palestine
pretty sure these were not the first massacres in history and Israel has a deeper timeline for such action.
What's interesting about your liberal approach to all of this is that it is Zinn regurgitation.
Its missing context.
And that is not to dismiss the Native genocide at all, I've read Dee Brown, I am very aware, but to postulate that American history is a precursor to Israel's genocide omits thousands of years of history.

Open kayaks might also be safer
