Journalisten vallen met open ogen in een overduidelijke marketingcampagne.

De mensen die (de restanten van) de democratie hebben afgebroken, mogen zich nu presenteren als haar 'redders'.

Maar welke belangen worden daarmee gediend?

May their memory be a blessing for love.

A revolution for presence.

An insurrection for compassion, for caring, for showing up.
My love, I was so wrong. Dying is the opposite of leaving. When I left my body, I did not go away. That portal of light was not a portal to elsewhere, but a portal to here. I am more here than I ever was before. I am more with you than I ever could have imagined. So close you look past me when wondering where I am. It’s Ok. I know that to be human is to be farsighted. But feel me now, walking the chambers of your heart, pressing my palms to the soft walls of your living. Why did no one tell us that to die is to be reincarnated in those we love while they are still alive? Ask me the altitude of heaven, and I will answer, “How tall are you?” In my back pocket is a love note with every word you wish you’d said. At night I sit ecstatic at the loom weaving forgiveness into our worldly regrets. All day I listen to the radio of your memories. Yes, I know every secret you thought too dark to tell me, and love you more for everything you feared might make me love you less. When you cry I guide your tears toward the garden of kisses I once planted on your cheek, so you know they are all perennials. Forgive me, for not being able to weep with you. One day you will understand. One day you will know why I read the poetry of your grief to those waiting to be born, and they are all the more excited. There is nothing I want for now that we are so close I open the curtain of your eyelids with my own smile every morning. I wish you could see the beauty your spirit is right now making of your pain, your deep seated fears playing musical chairs, laughing about how real they are not. My love, I want to sing it through the rafters of your bones, Dying is the opposite of leaving. I want to echo it through the corridor of your temples, I am more with you than I ever was before. Do you understand? It was me who beckoned the stranger who caught you in her arms when you forgot not to order for two at the coffee shop. It was me who was up all night gathering sunflowers into your chest the last…

I am grieving the barbarism that is going to unfurl from all this. People are going to die. Livelihoods gone. All to feed a corrupt kleptocracy.

I see every day up close how different it is from the first time around. There are no guardrails. A disaster. I’m sorry we have to live through this.

After an AI was trained to be anti-woke and within hours it became MechaHitler.
A popular meme format shows two astronauts in space, looking at Earth. One astronaut, looking at the planet, says, "Wait, anti-wokeness is just nazism?" The second astronaut, pointing a gun at the first, responds, "Always has been."

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE.

This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined.

It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Anti-immigration politics are not only racist, they also make societies (food security... & other social reproductive labour) & labour markets collapse. In this complex global world, migration is part of surviving and thriving. Any political programme that can not acknowledge this is doomed to fail.

Duidelijk. Yesilgöz blijft Douwe Bob beschuldigen van Jodenhaat en gooit hem wéér voor de bus

Alleen maar om ‘aan de bal te blijven’ in campagne. Ongekend gevaarlijk dieptepunt, zelfs voor VVD

Maar we laten ons niet afleiden vd feiten: haar kabinet is medeplichtig aan genocide
Dilan Yesilgöz - Zegerius on X: "Wat afgelopen weekend gebeurde raakte mij. Soms reageer ik ongepolijst en scherp, maar ik leg graag uit waarom dit zo belangrijk is. Er staat nogal wat op het spel. Dit raakt de vrijheid van ons allemaal. https://t.co/GnNREIOrj3" / X

Douwe Bob maakte een juiste keuze en verdient alle steun. Maar misschien dat we nu wel een béétje uit het oog beginnen te raken dat er naast die ene witte popster ook een hele bevolkingsgroep in NL is die al járen voor 'antisemitisch' of 'jodenhaters' wordt versleten - met bedreigingen tot gevolg.

This is encouraging: Spain and Brazil showing the way to make taxation (more) progressive again, by arguing for the introduction of a new tax on the very richest.

There are loads of problems in the world that could be addressed with the excess financial resources that the 1% does not need.

Ik ben oprecht zo opgelucht dat er (tóch) journalisten zijn die dit niet zomaar loslaten. Want het is wat, een politica (en een partijleider en een voormalig minister van justitie) die zo gemakkelijk liegt en zo gretig mensen van antisemitisme en 'Jodenhaat' beticht.

Yes! Finally. This is the way to go - halt AI crawlers.

Let's have much more of these. With the options that, if AI companies want to extract content, they have to reference the author(s) of the content and pay, or also just a simple "no" option - no extraction of this content, full stop.

Nativism is incompatible with liberal democracy. Ultimately, it will always lead to an authoritarian regime in which both majority rule and minority rights are secondary to cultural purity.

Literal cages. Not even metaphorical ones. Literal ones.
Jason Delgado (Florida Capitol reporter for Spectrum News 13) on X: "Quick look at what inside a detainment tent looks like here at Alligator Alcatraz." What is shown in the picture is a long tent structure, about 50 feet wide. There is a corridor running down the middle. On each side are three rows of bunk beds. The bunk beds are sectioned off into cells which are constructed out of chain link fence, with chain link on the ceiling as well, making each cell a literal cage. It looks to me like each cell contains 9 bunk beds, so has capacity for 18 people each.
