Click-bait title, sadly - but it is always worth listing to Norman Finkelstein, even when he makes you uncomfortable - especially then.

Some amazing Tennessee news! His fabulous cat sitter came by seven times, and on four of those visits she was able to pet him for a bit, mostly in my office. This from a cat who would, before this month, run away from anyone but me.

Of course, he was still glad I was back home. He's sitting on the desk next to me right now, purring his little heart out.

The Bondi Beach massacre should make it clear that antisemitism is becoming increasingly common. Part of the problem is the conflation of Israel with the Jewish diaspora, by both the government of Israel and antisemites.

Opposition to the Israeli government is a sane and justified position. Hatred and violence towards the Jewish or Israeli peoples is not.

¿Sabían que la sal en el ring de sumo no es un simple capricho cultural, sino un ritual de purificación sintoísta?

Antes de cada combate de sumo, los luchadores (rikishi) arrojan puñados de sal al dohyō (el ring de arcilla). Esta práctica, que consume alrededor de 45 kilogramos de sal en un solo día de torneo, tiene un origen profundamente arraigado en la religión nativa de Japón, el sintoísmo.

En el sintoísmo, la sal se considera un elemento sagrado con el poder de alejar los malos espíritus, las energías negativas y las impurezas. El dohyō es tratado como un espacio sagrado, y cada combate se considera una ofrenda a los dioses (kami).

Al esparcir la sal, los luchadores purifican simbólicamente el área de combate, pidiendo la bendición de los dioses, asegurando la seguridad del lugar y, según la creencia popular, previniendo lesiones durante el enfrentamiento.

Un luchador de sumo está en medio de un ritual en un ring circular. El luchador es un hombre corpulento con el pelo peinado en un moño superior. Lleva un taparrabos azul y calcetines blancos. Está de pie sobre un montículo de arena, con las manos extendidas y arrojando arena al aire. Al fondo, una gran multitud de personas está sentada observando en un ambiente interior. La arena arrojada por el luchador es visible en forma de una nube brillante que se extiende hacia la derecha de la imagen.

The English word ‘sad’ is related to ‘to satisfy’, ‘to satiate’, ‘saturation’ and ‘asset’, a group of words that English borrowed from French and Latin.

They all derive from a Proto-Indo-European root meaning “to satiate”.

‘Sæd’, the Old English ancestor of ‘sad’, meant “sated; full; weary; having had your fill”. Only in Middle English did it come to mean “sorrowful”.

Zoom in on my new graphic to learn all about this family.




Quel piatto di ful nella foto era tra i migliori di #Damasco: ero a Bab Touma, alle porte della Città Vecchia.
Il ful è un piatto siriano semplice e gustoso: fave cotte con aglio, cipolla, prezzemolo e un po' di olio e limone.
Oggi quel posto non esiste più, spazzato via dalla guerra.
Sono passati 14 anni, il regime di Assad è crollato ma la situazione è la stessa.
Ho raccontato la mia storia in #Siria nel mio #podcast Ponti Invisibili: se non lo hai ascoltato, è il momento giusto per farlo.

Die Spannung steigt .....❗😷

Zu einer öffentlichen Anhörung wird der ehemalige Bundesgesundheitsminister Jens Spahn (CDU) erwartet.....

Befragt werden kann auch die im vergangenen Jahr vom Ministerium eingesetzte Sonderermittlerin Margaretha Sudhof.

Seems Nicky NoBoats is under pressure from the hard right for not doing austerity ruthlessly enough. Although the debate itself is not ruthless since the Taxdodgers Onion are planning to wheel out Ruthenasia Richardson to debate NoBoats;

A clash of the neoclassical titans. Like a debate between 19th century orphanageers, over whether the current one is beating the orphans enthusiastically enough to get them adopted.

Hopefully people will see this debate, grok the horror these corporatist vampires have in store for us all, and vote for those campaigning on a politics of universal wellbeing in 2026.

a few years ago, researchers at Google documented a similar list of leakages in their then-new image generator model enriched with linguistic semantics (see Section 6.3). I like it a lot, because it demonstrates similar issues visually.

L’uso dei #Social è dannoso per i più piccoli.

Uno studio svedese ha dimostrato che i bambini che trascorrono molto tempo sui #SocialMedia tendono a sperimentare un graduale declino della loro capacità di concentrazione.
Una ricerca che ha coinvolto oltre 100.000 giovani tra i 18 e i 24 anni ha rilevato che chi ha ricevuto il primo smartphone prima dei 13 anni riporta tassi più alti di pensieri suicidi, aggressività, ansia, bassa autostima e disturbi dell’umore.

Immediately after the 2024 US election there was a naive knee jerk reaction where pundits would claim the country as a whole had shifted right, and that to win vulnerable groups like trans people need to be thrown under the bus.

A new analysis challenges that view, suggesting that what really happened was fewer left-leaning voters came to the polls in 2024.

They note one of the largest problems was lack of a strong economic message from Democrats.

The U.S. Military almost collided with a JetBlue passenger headed to the U.S. earlier today at 34,000 feet.

Why? They had their transponder turned off, as part of the war against Venezuela.
