Remember how the Trump media #CNN#MSNBC#ABC#CBS#NBC like to tell America and especially black voters how Trump is getting black voters? Again! as we've been saying it's just another lie.(PROOF)👇
Ich dachte eigentlich, die Geschichte des #Holocaust zu kennen – bis ich kürzlich auf die Person Amin al-Husseini stieß. Es klang für mich erst wie alternative Geschichte à la “Man in the High Castle”, ist aber Realität. Im Kontext des heutigen #Holocaustgedenktag verdient er aus meiner Sicht Aufmerksamkeit und sollte – unabhängig von der Frage der Interpretation für den weiteren Verlauf der Geschichte nach dem II. Weltkrieg – so bekannt sein wie andere Täter aus der SS. https://de.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mohammed_Amin_al-Husseini
Nicht nur der Antisemitismus und die Kriegstreiberei sowie der Zweck heiligt die Mittel stehen in roten Lettern quer über #AlHusseini|s Vita.
Auch der #Nepotismus, die #Geldgier und das streben nach #Macht.
Ich bin kein Psychologe, würde jedoch vermuten, dass er auch zu diesen "schwarzen Narzisten" gehört, die vor einer Weile in einem #TheAtlantic-Artikel ausgelobt wurden.
In this week’s Pagan Community Notes, scholars at Harvard Divinity School post an open letter regarding Rabbi Wolpe’s comment and a possible dialogue, Cornellian elevation, events, and more news. Plus our tarot of the week!
Holli Emore, director of Cherry Hill Seminary, reached out to Rabbi David Wolpe for an interfaith conversation following his article “The Return of Paganism” earlier this week in The Atlantic. But Wolpe declined, claiming his article was not intended to address modern Pagans.
In this week’s Pagan Community Notes, we celebrate Kwanzaa and share forthcoming events as well as record and share Pagan responses to The Atlantic magazine’s publication of an anti-Pagan article by Rabbi David Wolpe.
"He points out that his position is not a partisan one. It's 'not about Republicans and Democrats," he stressed, but "about authoritarians versus pro-democracy Americans.' "
The adorable Venezuelan poodle moth was discovered & photographed in 2009 by Dr. Arthur Anker. It’s supposedly the only sighting of this critter, but insects are small & Earth is big. So imagine the diversity of species we haven’t found yet…
Yes, very true. For me, they were sort of like a "Second Life", a fictitious "alternate reality" of what could have been or might be if...but nothing that would materialize in my life time, maybe apart from a lunar base.
Never have I been so wrong in an overall assessment:
The Atlantic's Photo section — aka ‘In Focus’ — is my favorite way to catch up with general news and hot topics. Articles remain free, published twice or thrice a week, just enough to not hit the paywall.
Wo oder wie kann ich die Retröts von einem Fedianer abstellen, der sich dauernd selbst retrötet?
Ansonsten finde ich seine Beiträge nämlich interessant und gut.
The second decade of the 21st century is truly a bounteous time. My backyard has produced a bumper crop of an invasive species of mosquito that is genuinely innovative: rather than confining itself to biting in the dusk and dawn golden hours, these stinging clouds of flying vampires bite at every hour that God sends:
Ever since, white nationalists used "socialism" make Americans believe "socialism" was an "extremist" view, so they'd stand by while everyone from Joe McCarthy to Trump smeared their opponents as "Marxists":
As #HeatherCoxRichardson puts it for #TheAtlantic, "There is a long-standing fight over whether support for the modern-day right is about taxes or race. The key is that it is about taxes and race at the same time":

There is a #TheAtlantic article up, saying that #Musk pulled #Ukraine's sat-nav for a planned attack on Russian sips because he feared WWIII would break out.
The basis for this affirmative claim by The Atlantic?
A Musk comm to his biographer stating his concern.
Problem is that anyone wanting to create some grounds for some defence against doing something like switching off the sat-nav in a secret deal with #Russia would do something like that.
Nice summary of the current state of LLMs in a non-technical sense. My observation is that the bloom quickly falls from the rose once you start working with them regularly. They are repetitive, make silly mistakes and frequently don’t save the time you hoped they would. What they aren’t is creative or surprising.
The Internet’s Next Great Power Suck: AI’s carbon emissions are about to be a problem.
"Compared w/ many other things we use online, #ChatGPT et all are unique in their power usage. #AI risks making every search, scroll, click, & purchase a bit more energy intensive as #SiliconValley rushes to stuff the #tech into search engines, photo-editing software, shopping and financial and writing and customer-service assistants, and just about every other digital crevice." -Matteo Wong/ #TheAtlantic
