Florida Decided There Were Too Many Children
The state’s elimination of vaccine mandates is a courageous first step toward decluttering itself of any excess kids.Alexandra Petri (The Atlantic)
I oppose the US backed Israeli genocide of the Palestinian people.
I condemn the people of Israel who support and perpetrate the murder and slaughter of their neighbours in Palestine.
I am prioritizing stopping an active genocide above all other issues.
This is the most straightforward moral issue of the 21st century. If you oppose this genocide, you are right, and anyone who disagrees with you is wrong.
It really is that simple.

#WritersCoffeeClub 5 September. How much should a writer read?
I generally recommend reading as much as you are able - on any conceivable subject, and certainly outside of your genre. Inspiration can be gained from _anywhere_, and the more you read - the more you know - the more will you be able to develop your own style and your own unique ideas and plots.
One of my major regrets in life is that I do no longer have as much time to read as I did in my youth, but I nevertheless try to keep at it.
Non indosso mai magliette di marca. Mi sembra stupido pagare per esporre un brand altrui. Dovrei essere io quello retribuito per essere una pubblicità ambulante.
Quindi indosso solo magliette basic.
Se una maglietta deve riportare delle scritte allora devono essere politiche. Così almeno mando un messaggio a chi guarda.

Smokers pay more. 🚬 The unvaccinated should pay more. 💉 And while we’re at it? Gun owners too. 🔫 Why? Because risk costs money. And insurance is math, not politics. 💸Threads

Away from the sunshine, this little moth was hiding away, probably waiting for evening.
It's called Clepsis dumicolana, & while it lacks an English name, apparently, it's the Efeuwickler in German, or ivy winder.
And indeed, it's sitting on an ivy leaf here – apparently they arrived in central Europe from the Mediterranean on imported ivy plants.

Schiff: Trump's Wrong; "We Screw Over The World" On Trade
Schiff: Trump's Wrong; "We Screw Over The World" On Trade
Donald Trump’s tariffs split opinion—champions said they were leverage to rebuild U.S. industry, while critics argued they were hidden taxes that raised costs and invited retaliation. At last night’s ZH Debate, Cornell chemistry professor Dave Collum — fresh off his Tucker Carlson controversy — moderated as Peter Schiff and Brent Johnson squared off on trade, tariffs, and the future of the dollar.
Brent is no fan of tariffs but thinks there is some wisdom to Trump’s long-term plan and that the U.S. dollar still reigns supreme. Peter… well all ZH readers know where Peter stands.
Below were the key moments for those short on time:
Trump Has Trade Deficits Wrong
Peter Schiff argued that America’s trade deficits are misunderstood. “It’s actually the other way around,” he said, pushing back on Donald Trump’s claim that the U.S. is being taken advantage of. “We take advantage of the world. They give us goods produced at significant cost in resources, land, labor, capital… and all we do is run off dollars on a printing press, cost us nothing, and we give it to them.”
Brent Johnson responded that this imbalance is exactly what comes with America’s position. “That’s the privilege of being the hegemon as you get global.”
Schiff countered that such privilege is temporary. “It’s the privilege that we are about to lose. That’s what $3,500 gold tells you. Dollar is on the way out as the reserve currency.”
— ZeroHedge Debates (@zerohedgeDebate) twitter.com/zerohedgeDebate/st…
“I expect Powell to lose”
Brent went on record with a bold call that included something rarely seen in market commentary: timing.
He predicts — as soon as October — a 10 or 20% market downturn… perhaps welcomed by the Trump admin so they can blame the Fed and lower rates.
“To get the cover to do that, they need some pain. I don’t think they can do that right now with things the way they already are.”
“Some kind of a crisis that they blame on the Fed, and then they go back to even easier monetary policy than maybe they had last time. And that is what then gives the fuel to go much higher.”
With markets at record highs and inflation still sticky, “it’s really hard to do it now.”
Brent’s prediction: “I think Powell is pushing back a little bit. But this is the thing—I expect Powell to lose. I think Trump and Bessent are going to get control.”

Couverture des violences urbaines : la liberté de la presse menacée
jeudi 4 septembre 2025
Nous (ACRIMED) relayons ce communiqué du Syndicat national des journalistes (SNJ).
C’est une attaque en règle contre la liberté d’informer et d’être informé. En catimini, en plein été, le ministère de l’Intérieur a diffusé un schéma national des violences urbaines (SNVU). Ce document est destiné « à mettre à disposition des services territoriaux de la police nationale un guide pratique pour la gestion des violences urbaines. » « Ce document a vocation à répondre à toutes les situations de violences urbaines, jusqu’aux émeutes insurrectionnelles, caractérisées par une très haute intensité », explique la place Beauvau, qui s’est bien gardée d’informer les organisations de journalistes.
À la lecture de ce schéma, une phrase saute particulièrement aux yeux : « la prise en compte du statut des journalistes telle que consacrée par le schéma national du maintien de l’ordre, ne trouve pas à s’appliquer dans un contexte de violences urbaines ».
Cette incise est une insulte, une provocation envers toute la profession.
Déjà en 2021, le Syndicat national des journalistes, entre autres, avait déposé un recours devant le Conseil d’Etat contre le schéma national du maintien de l’ordre (SNMO), qui empêchait tout journaliste d’exercer sa mission d’informer le public. Le Conseil d’Etat a finalement donné raison aux organisations qui l’avaient saisie (SNJ, Solidaires, la CGT, la Ligue des droits de l’Homme).
Quatre ans après cette première lutte victorieuse contre un texte liberticide, le ministère de l’Intérieur persiste à vouloir invisibiliser d’éventuelles dérives policières lors de la couverture de violences urbaines en empêchant les journalistes de faire leur métier.
Le SNJ, première organisation de la profession, condamne cette tentative de vouloir museler la presse. Alors que des appels à manifestations et mobilisations sont lancées pour les 10 et 18 septembre partout en France, il a mandaté le cabinet Spinosi pour déposer une requête en urgence devant le Conseil d’Etat et un dossier au fond d’ici fin septembre.
Le SNJ appelle toutes les organisations attachées aux libertés fondamentales à le rejoindre dans cette procédure contre cette disposition du schéma national des violences urbaines.

"Relatedly, Trump and MAGA see everything in terms of punishment and fear. They can’t accept the idea that America prospered, not by using its power to dominate other nations, but by making and adhering to international agreements that kept world markets open. They can’t accept the idea that we can manage the economy by leaving monetary policy in the hands of technocrats who don’t take Trump’s orders."
"They can’t accept the idea that cities can be relatively safe, not because armed men are keeping everyone in line, but because most Americans — whatever their national origin or the color of their skin — are decent people more inclined to get along with their neighbors than to hate them."
Dolcificanti a zero calorie e declino cognitivo:una ricerca brasiliana scopre un preoccupante legame.
I risultati principali indicano che, nei partecipanti di età inferiore ai 60 anni, un consumo più elevato di #dolcificanti è associato a un declino più rapido della fluenza verbale e della cognizione globale.
Studi precedenti hanno già suggerito che i dolcificanti artificiali possano influenzare il metabolismo cerebrale, alterando i livelli di neurotrasmettitori.

And yet, I think using generative AI to make the people you support look "better" means your'e basically setting the precedence for using it to make the people you oppose look worse.
...and before you know it, it's made-up evidence all the way down, and filtering actual facts from made-up embellishments becomes impossible. That's an enormously dangerous road to travel.
