In all seriousness, I think nothing portraits better today's than the clown that is currently the ambassador of that genocidal state in the shredding by his own hands the UN charter while accusing everybody else to do what he was proudly doing himself.

Stop the genocide in

Despite the stunt (or perhaps because of it, who knows?), got a massive victory in the General Assembly.

Proud to say that my country voted yes.

Trump's Silence is Deafening!

Trump says a lot by saying nothing at all - about Ukraine aid passing by a huge majority.

Trump is dancing on the head of a pin trying to stay in Putin's good graces after he failed at keeping Ukraine aid blocked.

What will Putin do to Trump?
What will Trump do for Putin?
How far down the rabbit hole will MAGA go for Putin?

WATCH TRUMP CAREFULLY!

Word pairings I would give a lot never to encounter again include "Musk says", "Trump claims" I'm sure there are others but those are the biggies.

@KateOfMind Off the top of my head, I came up with two more:

"Musk claims" and "Trump says".

A word about all the people I've pissed off with this week's blog post:

https://mastodon.social/

(When I woke up this morning, I removed about 25 comments !!)

I wonder if I feel free to write a blog post that I know will anger people because I don't monetize.

I have ads, but it pays a tiny fraction of the cost of maintaining a website and using MailChimp. People might be surprised at how much my blogging venture costs.

A few years ago Substack tried to recruit me . . .

jorgecandeias,
@jorgecandeias@mastodon.social avatar

@Teri_Kanefield About 2) there, the thing is: it works. It really, really works. So if one side is doing it, the other side simply HAS to do it as well, otherwise it's very quickly wiped out. It's a positive feedback cycle (a very negative positive feedback cycle at that) that I don't know how to get out of.

@franco_vazza I've seen exactly that in book events. Non-academic. Just ordinary people.

It's widespread. :)

One of many mysteries in “Crocus” terror attack is its timeline:

  • 20:00 attackers enter the mall and start the massacre
  • 20:18 attackers leave on their Renault
  • 23:07 “Akhmat” unit reported a car didn’t stop on a checkpoint and start chasing it near Bryansk
  • 23:30 the car is stopped at Teploe, 25 km from Bryansk

Driving distance is 389 km, estimated time 5 hours. The car would have to drive non-stop at ~140 km/h to make it from 20:18 to 23:07 on a road that really isn’t a top-notch highway, goes through towns with traffic lights, checkpoints, toll stations and other choke points.

There’s many inconsistencies in the official narrative, but this one is one of few that seems to defy laws of physics.

@jorgecandeias@mastodon.social avatar

@kravietz Not to mention that according to our boy Luke they were first going to Belarus and only after finding the border too full of law enforcement they decided to try Ukraine (where, of course, there's no such thing. Or paramilitary. Or military. Or surveillance)

Everything is utterly credible.

How many motherfucking articles are going to be written feigning surprise that Elon Musk is a total fucking racist. Only white people are “surprised."🙄

@StillIRise1963 Not even. I'm white and I'm not surprised at all.

He's a real piece of shit, that one.

@StillIRise1963 Nobody does. Even if some pretend to.

jorgecandeias,
@jorgecandeias@mastodon.social avatar

@StillIRise1963 Nope. I don't represent anything at all. Nobody elected me to represent anything. Plus, I'm not American. I have an opinion on some American (and south african-american) pieces of shit, but whatever happens in America is not my fight to have. It's yours.

I'm just here with my opinions watching the circus catch fire (and getting affected by the flames, alas).

Wondering what the world would look like if we implemented "Universal Basic Website".

Entitle everyone to their own domain, a few GB of space, the ability to run simple apps / blogs / etc.

What does the world look like if people aren't beholden to Flickr / Facebook / Google Photos to share their family albums?

@Edent we had that, back in Geocities days. It was a lot freer. It was also a whole lot weirder.
