There is a message here for the British left-of-centre about both how to respond to the right and how to make the state take both their concerns seriously and, more importantly, their position. I will leave it at that.

An antisemite shot two kids in Colorado, at least one of whom is Jewish.

The White House “fighting antisemitism” doesn’t care, because the shooter was a student radicalized online into far right beliefs, which the regime is cool with, rather than a student verbally criticizing Israeli govt policy.

‘Radicalized’ Evergreen High School shooter appeared to hold antisemitic, violent views in online accounts

Social media accounts that appear to be connected to the 16-year-old shooter are littered with references to mass shootings and antisemitic views, The Denver Post found.

Instead of having meaningless debates with people who only care about violence when a white person dies, you could instead learn something about cultural dynamics!

We worked really hard on it! And for an unscripted presentation I think I did quite well lmao

This “solo dev” and “only 3 devs” rhetoric is getting truly dangerously out of hand. Investors see this and think “I only have to pay 3 people” and the result is severely overworked and/or underpaid people and a subpar product. We need to stop treating outsourcers and contractors like ghosts.

As a flamenco dancer and a person who was born in Spain, I've spent a lot of my adult life learning about the Romani people, people who've been persecuted wherever they go, including in Hitler's Germany, but this is a story I did not know. www.youtube.com/shorts/ly-gQ...

On Crusades, or, how not to identify with losers

I think about Crusades a lot because that’s my job. I also think about them a lot because, well, there were a lot of them – which is pretty wild when you consider they didn’t exist as a pheno…

Something I did note while reading, and also something I will bring up as it's own segment in part 2. Since it differs from the other types of assault Ciri faces, I wanted to give it it's own discussion.

The groups organizing the protest now estimate that at least 100,000 people joined the demonstration in The Hague. That would make it the largest protest in the Netherlands in 20 years.
