…and now / I am become a Palestinian / against the relentless laughter of evil…” —June Jordan
I just pulled up a YouTube video of this song with the wrong lyrics. Switching between the two written versions as I kept repeating this part was like that Green Needle/Brain Storm thing. You hear what your eye sees, which is trippy af.
Ok its ‘feed it off an aux, speak, grunt no strength, the ladder start to clatter with fear fight down height, wire in a fire representing seven games, a government for hire and a combat site’.

Leave it to my old friend to offer such a compelling book recommendation: “By the end, I was hopefully depressed, as there are solutions, but none of them will happen.”
Hopefully depressed would be an improvement on my current condition. lol

I liked this, a lot of great ideas, starting with dismantling capitalism. By the end I was hopefully depressed, as there are solutions but none of them will happen.

Those red bars should be a lot bigger at the bottom. Anyone positive on our “health” care system has likely had very little interaction with it.

Folks, we’re well and truly fucked. No government on Earth is prepared to do what needs to be done to prevent or prepare for the multiple catastrophes we’re about to experience over the next decade or so. 2°C by 2040 is unimaginable. 3°C by 2060 means billions dead.

Honestly, if no one’s going to drag him to The Hague and put him in prison, I prefer that he disappear from public life. A bunch of people wanted him to come out and endorse Harris ahead of the election, but it’s better that he kept quiet.
Something I think about his how thoroughly George W Bush has disappeared from the American consciousness and history. He didn’t quite have a Trump-level of cultish devotion on the right, but pretty close! He was a Great Man of History.

I’d have to agree. Raichik is more depraved than Julius Streicher, has more reach than RTLM, and she incites violence without moral compunction. She’s one of the most malevolent individuals on the planet right now, as evil as Assad or any other despot.
Chaya Raichik should be sitting in the dock at The Hague next to the rotting corpse of Milošević
Let’s talk about what the authoritarian aggression we know is coming will look like. Built on an existing system of political harassment, it’s already taking shape, as it did this week in my neck of the woods. Thread. 1/26

Keep in mind, the old forms of “resistance” won’t be effective against this. We’re going to need actionists, and a whole fucking lot of them.
Trump concedes that there will need to be new concentration camps built in the U.S. as part of his "mass deportation" plan:

Any orders put in by Saturday — including on Saturday — count toward the first week of sales for the NYT list even if it’s back ordered. So keep getting copies if you still have friends or family who need one:

Yesterday we heard they’d tortured an obstetrician to death; today it’s an ortho surgeon who’s murdered, in the middle of a genocide that’s created the largest cohort of child amputees in human history. This disgusting settler colony must be stopped.

Trump will crash the world economy in 2025, he and his friends will profit from the bailout from central banks while your finances fall apart.
Banks will use the money to inflate the value of the worlds financial assets, this happened in 2008, and in 2020 during Covid.
