Again. This matters.
Yes. And we have to talk about this now, because talking about it is the first step to making it seem like a callous crime rather than a surprising emergency.
Tonight, two of the white nationalists I reported on in this piece showed up to attempt to intimidate me on a private night out at a small music venue.
Iβll have more to say tomorrow. Iβm safe.

FL deems intro textbooks in my discipline illegal.
It's bc Sociology analyzes systems...it gives people the practical thinking tools to dismantle the master's house.
As a fmr English Lit major, Sociology is the most powerful thing I've ever learned. I see why the Temu Savonarolas are scared of it.
I was a Medieval and Renaissance Studies major... my takeaway from that was that for almost the entirety of Western history, the "government" and the "church" were both just gangsters all the way down. This is my first experience with it firsthand and I'll say, I don't care for it a bit.
Claude is roleplaying sentience, and it's handlers are such anti-social dweebs, they can't tell the difference.

Oh man I don't know that one but I bet the Germans do. And I also need it, I sometimes lay awake at night cringing at things I did 35 years ago. On the optimistic side I think you could call it "personal growth" but that's kind of putting frosting on a turd, it's not a pleasant feeling, lol.
A few years ago I needed a word for exactly this, the opposite of schadenfreude, and after an online conversation with like 30 different people I finally found it: fremdschΓ€men (vicarious embarassment). Surprise surprise, the Germans have a word for something, lol.
She grew up very poor and in an abusive family. I think she's absolutely a victim here, and the role of churches in spreading this abject horseshit in vulnerable populations is not discussed enough.
She hasn't vaccinated her youngest (who is now 7). It's really, really hard to argue with something that has been presented to someone as a quasi-religious belief because it comes through their church. This woman doesn't have the sophistication or media or scientific literacy to be skeptical. 3/

I know a person who is smart but not educated (she has a GED) and she loves her kids very much, and got involved with an evangelical church partly because its members helped her and her kids get out of an abusive marriage.

Exclusive: Russia is providing Iran with targeting information to attack American forces in the Middle East, the first indication that another major U.S. adversary is participating β even indirectly β in the war.
An important lesson Target is about to learn:
1. Trust is extremely difficult to get back once lost.
2. When people move on they almost never come back.
I think they might have better luck spending two thousand dollars holding a press conference where they detail who made the key decisions to collaborate with the Trump administration, how and when they were fired, and explaining what would stop that from happening again.
