Between Blueanon conspiracy theories running rampant a la QAnon, and the conspirscy theorists that will be in executive positions thought it would be useful to have a conspiracy theory researcher starter pack. This is a work in progress so ask to be included or drop names

Hello all: It is with a heavy heart that I remove my Starter Pack of "Trustworthy Mesopotamian Copper Ingot Merchants Within the City-State of Ur."
I have been informed about some pretty unfortunate oversights on my part and ultimately platformed some creators who should not have been platformed.

Stick a fork in it: Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria, a pseudo-scientific claim that kids learn about trans stuff on social media then suddenly claim a trans or nonbinary identity, simply does not exist. www.assignedmedia.org/breaking-new...
ROGD Proponents Now Wish Littman Had "Spared Us the Headache" of Claiming a Rapid-Onset — Assigned
Ordinary adolescent-onset gender dysphoria has completely eclipsed a
previous theory of gender dysphoria that emerged rapidly due to social
factors among proponents of the ROGD idea.

The thing about “drinking the kool aid” that I keep thinking about is, in real life it was flavor aid and a lot of the people at Jonestown were made to drink it at gunpoint.

I’m not even joking at this point - if you’re queer or of color, under 40, to the left of Joe Manchin, and you want to run for a local office in Chicago or a transit accessible suburb hit me up and I’ll help you. Local politics is way easier than you think, it just takes some elbow grease.
Begging all leftists to being running in their local elections instead of just posting political theory online all day

Like that great Stephen Jay Gould quote: "I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein’s brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops."

On a wet afternoon in Wales we visited the slate museum. I had my Nikon F2 with its 50mm f2 lens with yellow filter. Eastman 5222 film rated for me at 200 and developed in ID11 1:1 for around 10 mins . A lovely combination.

Despite the fact that some of the loudest voices doing the most self-sacrificing protesting and getting themselves arrested weekly have been progressive Jews, that doesn’t fit the narrative many have written about who Jews are, so stuff like this never goes viral.

This glass Roman bowl is a wonderful find, from its rich colours (honey, burgundy, midnight blue & ivory) to its garland motifs created from millefiori. It dates to the early imperial period (early C1st CE). Do yourself a favour & zoom in on the garlands. They’re great
