the Premier of Greenland, at Christmas time, forced to acknowledge that Trump is making the same threats Putin used to make regarding Ukraine and hoping against hope that this time will be different -
text: Premier of Greenland 🇬🇱 statement this morning; This morning, I am both saddened and grateful 🇬🇱 Saddened, because during a press conference last night, the President of the United States once again expressed a desire to take over Greenland. With such statements, our country is reduced to a question of security and power. That is not how we see ourselves, and it is not how Greenland can or should be spoken about. We are a people with a long history, a strong culture, and a vibrant democracy. We are a country with responsibility for our own territory and for our own future. Our territorial integrity and our right to self-determination are firmly anchored in international law and cannot simply be ignored. That is also why I am grateful. Thank you to everyone here at home for the clear support and unity that has been shown. The calmness and dignity with which you have met this situation send a strong signal of a people who stand firm in their values and in their responsibility. I would also like to thank heads of government and partners around the world who have clearly and unequivocally expressed their respect for Greenland, for our democratic institutions, and for the fundamental principles of international law. That support confirms that we here at home do not stand alone. Once again: Greenland is our country. Decisions are made here. And I will at all times fight for our freedom and our right to decide for ourselves and to shape our own future. For now, I hope that the peace of Christmas can settle over us all. Merry Christmas 🇬🇱💙🇬🇱

Wow, you can replace "Greenland" with "Ukraine" and United States with Russia and this looks - WORD FOR WORD - like something Zelenskyy wrote in 2021 or 2022. Word. For. Word.

I do think the key for things like Home Alone, Muppet Christmas Carol, etc. is that the actors fully commit to the bit

I feel like similar films made now lean too heavily into doing it ironically

Mockler: They didn't release all the files. They're drip feeding them. And redactions weren't reasonable. It was redacted in some parts. And as we just saw under redacted in other parts, and victims were exposed.

I think I finally perfected sandwich bread. This is really good. Flavor, texture, everything. So soft, yet holds together well. The crumb is perfect.

I'm really proud of me.

Casual reminder that the myth of “pulling yourself up by your bootstraps” is a cruel hoax designed to convince poor people from all walks of life that the injustices they face are a result of their own actions, rather than an oppressive system rigged against them.

Another interesting project by Mike Honey. Note the position of BA.3.2 (Cicada.) Suggests that vaccines or a recent infection may not offer great protection against BA.3.2. Keep those respirators stocked up and on your faces!

A recent scientific paper included an antigenic map, comparing the immune status of individuals vaccinated with a range of vaccines ("… vaccinated sera"), against a collection of significant variants ("Virus …").

The map was very informative, so I built a quick dataviz project to explore.

The law expressly prohibits redactions, except for names of victims. Everything this administration does is illegal and in bad faith.
