Where once it never rained till after sundown
By eight a.m. the morning fog had flown
Don't let it be forgot
That once there was a spot
For one brief shining moment
That was known as
Camembert

Putin/Russian terrorists invaders are threatening to blow up the power plant. This is not ok.

Where is the international community of nations? Hello ...

Even other nations like where the fuck are your leaders?

Ukrainian military intelligence - claims Russia has "completed preparations for a terrorist attack on the nuclear power plant".

repeatedly claimed Russia planned to blow up the Kakhovka dam - which they later did - so this should be taken seriously.

Two Chechen units, Akhmat-Grozny & Akhmat-Krepost, are deployed there.

russian TV frequently says they should do it.

I’m reasonably confident our leaders and other NATO nations are on top of this.
(Not saying it’s not a threat…but social media is still just social media.)

Dear creators. We really, really, really, really, really, really, don't need a rambling introduction followed by "without further ado" or "let's get into it." Just do it.

Amen!
Neither do we need shitty music that overpowers voice audio.
Nor do we need a 3-minute homemade animated introduction.
Mostly what we don’t need on cooking videos are long sequences of chopping veggies. We all know how to cut a fk*ing onion.

New: It is reported that the Wagnerians broke through the barricades on their way to .

The governor of the Lipetsk region confirmed that the columns of Wagner PMCs are already in the region

Around 15:00 Moscow time, it became known that the militants had passed Yelets. It is 340 km from Moscow. The rebels can enter the capital by 19:00 Moscow time.

The thug oligarchs Potanin, Manturov, Rotenberg and presumably the younger Kovalchuk could have flown out of Russia amid the mutiny.

Dictator Putin plans to eliminate Prigozhin and promise amnesty to Wagner militants.

The leadership of the Russian Federation is discussing the possibility of recognizing "Wagner" as an extremist and terrorist organization.

Russian Telegram channels are spreading video of the alleged Wagner PMC disarming the first Akhmat fighters.

my recollection of various extended family members saying awful pro-trump (or pro-GOP post-trump-appearing) things over the years

some gems I cannot unhear:

  1. "Rush Limbaugh is fact-based"
  2. "well, I just don't like the sound of her voice" (refusing to watch the upcoming Trump/Hillary debate)
  3. "well, Hillary Clinton killed someone" (this distant family member was NINE)

My (adult) twin Republican sons and I 3-way text often during the day to stay in touch. I finally had to tell them ixnay last week…that if they wanted to talk GOP political crap between themselves, leave me off the text. It just baffles me that they are as far to the right as I am to the left. We’ve been really close always and I just don’t get it. 💔

If 1 county in gives corporations and LLCs the right to vote, the consequences are unimaginable. They outnumber people in the state.

Doesn’t the US Constitution have something to say about voter eligibility? Wasn’t there a reason we needed constitutional Amendments to welcome Blacks and women to the polls — or is my old brain not functioning again?

How about a class action suit against the House Majority Leader on behalf of the hundreds of millions of Americans who wait in vain for bipartisan support on critical issues that impact all of our lives:
🔹 mitigation
🔹Opioid addiction
🔹Humane and constitutional immigration reform
🔹Women’s reproductive rights
🔹True equality for every US resident in every arena of our life
🔹Voting Rights
🔹Election Security/Accessibility
🔹Unreasonable cost of higher education
🔹Security of paid & unpaid entitlements (SS, Medicare, Medicaid, SNAP, etc)
🔹Universal health care
🔹AI Threat
🔹Separation of all religion from all legislation
🔹Everything else I can’t think of

Low-life scumbag Republicans suck up their taxpayer-funded salaries and peachy benefits but DO NOT DO THEIR JOBS in serving their constituents.

We deserve a fully-functioning Congress! We deserve that the elected actually WORK for the American people.

Given just how much "enshittification" of internet companies we've seen of late, I put together a list of 7 basic rules for internet CEOs who DON'T want to enshittify their companies: https://www.techdirt.com/2023/06/21/seven-rules-for-internet-ceos-to-avoid-enshittification/

Wow…kudos! Excellent article and very well written.

I would only add…don’t over-engineer the product UI with so many features it becomes unusable and/or requires “upgrade” fees for what is really basic operation. Reddit has done that, IMO, and I’m a veteran tech user.
