An old friend who moved to NC never got vaccinated for Covid. Not one shot. Honestly, I have to say it changed the way I see him and has made me feel less inclined to talk to him.

@StillIRise1963 it's sad how people literally chose the no Vax direction. No one stopped them from getting jabbed. I'm sorry for your loss. For a while the anti-vax people made me wonder if COVID vaccines were mostly just a hope strategy (I'm fine with that). But then there is this new study (sorry if you've already seen it): "Repeat COVID-19 vaccinations elicit antibodies that neutralize variants, other viruses"

It took every ounce of self-restraint to not deface it.

June 2, 1924: Congress enacts the Indian Citizenship Act. Only 100 years ago. Just a reminder that the constitutional definition of 'people' to include all humans is a very recent event, less than 160 years. It's not that long ago. My grandmother (RIP) was born in 1898. The current conservative backsliding on who gets to be 'people' under the constitution needs to be stopped. Don't vote conservative. Reform the Supreme Court.

Russian President Vladimir Putin's appointment of a new defense minister, Andrey Belousov, is seen as an attempt to streamline Russia's economy and mobilize it for the war effort.

Russia's military has faced numerous supply and logistics problems that thwarted its all-out war against Ukraine from the get-go. Two years later, the problems of poor logistics and lack of strategic planning persist.

It's ridiculous that most Democrats are just watching passively as Republicans are passing mask bans. In states where Democrats hold power, they should absolutely be passing laws that codify and protect people's rights to wear a mask.

It is NOT โ€œbalanceโ€ to add FASCIST PROPAGANDA to the news, MSNBC. It is complicity.

@StillIRise1963 What did I miss on MSNBC this time?

timo21,
@timo21@mastodon.sdf.org avatar

@StillIRise1963 Thanks for the article, which reads like something from the National Review: Non-conservative media is to be scorned. The article also cherry picked the facts and ignored the plethora of republican 'never-trumpers' on MSNBC. The primary takeaway is the affirmation that the 21st Century version of the NYT is not representative of the country, but is, at a minimum, leaning to the corporate libertarian right (i.e. fascists).

timo21,
@timo21@mastodon.sdf.org avatar

@StillIRise1963 so yes, complicit was the correct word to use for the NYT. All the corporate media that is stonewalling Joe Biden's activities. Remember when Trump was on every freaking day?

Markets - Where did all the stocks go?
Public Companies In Decline

The number of public companies has fallen fast by Matt Phillips, David Crowther 4/28/24

"...After analyzing the effects of mergers, private-equity investment, and regulatory costs, the paper suggests that M&A is the main culprit. (Though they do theorize that higher costs associated with regulation could be a less important contributing factor.)

โ€œMergers seem to be the biggest driver of this trend,โ€ Ali Sanati told Sherwood. Sanati is a finance professor at the American University in Washington, DC, and a coauthor of the 2023 paper.

The authors categorized mergers according to various financial metrics, noting that mergers motivated around financing and innovation โ€œare the ones that effectively reduce the number of U.S. listings.โ€

So, they got eaten.

Extremists don't seem to like market economies and religious extremists the world over have accumulated billions in petro dollars. One action is to quit using oil, cut the extremists off from their income. And don't allow new possibilities: We don't need lithium billionaires, for instance.

Dear Google,

When I search, I am not looking for The Answer. I am looking for sources. A search that generates only answers will be useless personally, and worse than useless professionally for me.

What I would really like is an internet search engine that works. Google did that once. Then they focused on other things and used it for ad revenue and it became the new Craigslist.

It would sure be nice if Google would reinvent an actual internet search engine.
