I hate to say it, but within minutes of hearing about the attack by Hamas against Israel, the unexpectedness of it, and the scale of it, I asked myself, “Who’s funding this,” and, “Who gains by this?” And my brain replied, “Putin.”

Sure enough within days his puppets in our government (the USofA GOP) start talking about reducing/stopping aid to Ukraine.

But how do you define “productive”?

I work from home and I get the same amount of work done. However if you define it as, “Doing X amount of work in Y amount of time,” then yeah I’m less productive because nowadays instead of getting that work done in an 8-hour shift I take about 10–12 hours to do it.

Same work, same day, so my productivity hasn’t changed. I just take longer to do it by taking breaks, going out to long lunches with friends, and my stress level is almost non-existent!

I find that to be a very equitable trade-off: Almost no job-related stress for a slightly longer working day.

It’s important to note that the #1 rule of Misinformation is: Be First.

The information doesn’t have to be accurate, verifiable, etc., it just has to Be First and it’ll get repeated often enough that people will start to believe that it’s true. “Oh Shirley, how can ‘Biden Eats Babies’ be wrong when I’ve already seen 18 shared posts on my wall this morning [Meta/Facebook] talking about it. I’ve received 3 e-mails from other family members talking about it. Why I even saw 4 articles on my favorite websites last night and this morning reporting on it. They can’t all be wrong!”

Then when the truth tries to assert itself there’s so much noise that it gets drowned out.
