Alia isn't particularly social which hasn't affected her much so far. She can be seen as aloof and distant. Down the line it may be a problem when she might need to work a crowd in her favor.

I made some edits, first of one of my favorite recent snaps of Arwen, taken on July 6th. I took a snap of her ink paw print and I edited as well. Added a simple background...
It's been almost 8 weeks and there's not been a day where I've not cried over losing her... 😢

Gelreman: perfect om mentale weerbaarheid te testen

Tijdens mijn groene banaan van 2025 was ik weer in mijn meta-reflectiemodus. Ik was me er zelfs tijdens de race telkens bewust van dat ik mezelf met mijn halve mantra’s voor de gek hield. Twee kanten op: dat ik me zelf fop als ik ‘mag plassen’ bij het volgende bosje (ik moet eigenlijk helemaal niet); dat

I’m gonna ask a really stupid question what oil sales are illegal to China?

What authority does he claim this on?

Unless there is context I am missing, Bannon seems to have lost all contact with reality. Perhaps he would like to make more noise about kingdoms like Saudi Arabia or the UAE and how they should be overthrown. We’ll see how long that lasts.

@GhostOnTheHalfShell i have no idea but if you're familiar with bannon's ideology (and he is far more of an ideologue than a grifter) he is fully invested in the "fourth turning" and the idea that there will be a great power showdown between communist china and capitalist united states.

if you haven't seen the errol morris movie about bannon it's worth watching

in reply to ⚯ Michel de Cryptadamus ⚯

The man’s head is stuck in the cold war, which doesn’t surprise me, because it sells to his base. Let’s just ignore that the geopolitical dynamic is between billionaires and the rest of us.

He seems to be missing the fact that the richest men in the world don’t want the US to be a thing.

they want their network state hell scape sustained by their silicon God which controls the world.

in reply to ⚯ Michel de Cryptadamus ⚯

He pulls a claim of illegality straight out of his own ass.. I guess, because he believes that Iran sells oil to an ally. I think Russia sells oil to an ally.

China’s importation has declined, but their own energy sources have been developed. And they figure out a way to get their oil.

Which countries does China import crude oil from?

In addition, if you remember the guardians report last year, that uncovered KSA program to expand oil use in Africa and specifically in supersonic flight because it consumes twice as much fuel as a standard aircraft for a given route.

If you ever wondered what the NASA program I think that’s the X 25. I don’t remember it’s number, but it’s the idea of making supersonic flight less noisy… that’s what it’s about

I’m a little concerned about the hours with this demonstration between 11 AM and 1 PM.

This is right, smack dab in the middle of the hottest part of the day. The heat stress alone for many people is going to be a challenge and I would recommend anyone going to this to take lots of adequate water sunscreen, of course but make sure that are properly dressed with loose light clothing over your entire body and a hat

The headline here — I think, I’m out of my depth — is that, contrary to what they did before, the Trump admin •did• in fact comply with an emergency order from a judge to stop a deportation flight.

Do not let anyone tell you authoritarianism is a done deal. Judges still have power. Activists still have power. We still have power. Nothing’s certain, nothing’s safe — but nothing is already decided either.

They want your defeatism. They want a fait accompli. Don’t give it to them. toad.social/@KimPerales/115125…


Confirmed: “Breaking news:⚡️The Trump administration grounded planes carrying migrant children that the White House intended to deport to Guatemala after a federal judge issued an emergency order temporarily blocking any removal of about 600 unaccompanied minors.”

The image depicts a colorful illustration from a children's book. In the foreground, a girl with red hair tied in a ponytail, wearing a blue pajama top with red dots, is looking out of a window. She is positioned on the left side of the image, with her back to the viewer. In front of her, on a desk, is a black server with green and red indicator lights. To the right, a laptop is partially visible, showing a picture of the girl on its screen.

In the background, through the window, two children are standing on a grassy area. One child is wearing an orange shirt and brown pants, while the other is in a blue shirt and blue pants, holding a leash attached to a small dog. The window is framed by blue curtains with star patterns. Above the scene, there is text that reads, "Some people think servers should only be in offices. They might make fun of your home server."

Most “good UI” isn’t good at all. It’s just whatever we’ve been trained to tolerate.

Case in point: for years, anything with too much text was mocked as “bad UX.” Then ChatGPT came along, gave you a blinking cursor and a box—and suddenly walls of text are the peak of interface design. Nothing changed except what people got used to.

Or take macOS. People trip over themselves to praise Apple’s “clean” UI. But what’s actually clean about it? Why does closing every window not quit the app? That’s not intuitive. It’s just something Mac users were conditioned into defending. If Windows did the same thing, there’d be YouTube essays about it.

Same goes for games. The arrow keys used to be the standard for movement. Now, if your game doesn’t use WASD, you’ll get roasted on Steam. Not because WASD is inherently better—it’s just what everyone expects.

The dirty truth is this: UI isn’t about usability. It’s about conformity. Interfaces don’t necessarily become “good” when they solve problems—they become good when people stop complaining.

I do think that different mentalities gravitate to different platforms and different software. There is some software that makes me happy to use vs having to use.
in reply to Carolyn

@CStamp Certainly, and to be fair, Mac now accommodates different mentalities.

For example, to open an app, all I have to do is press the search key on the keyboard, then type an app’s name.

Bernie Sanders: Kennedy Must Resign


Opinion - Guest Essay
Aug. 30, 2025

Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the secretary of health and human services, is endangering the health of the American people now and into the future. He must resign.

Mr. Kennedy and the rest of the Trump administration tell us, over and over, that they want to Make America Healthy Again. That’s a great slogan. I agree with it. The problem is that since coming into office President Trump and Mr. Kennedy have done exactly the opposite.

The image shows a close-up view of a pot containing delicate, reddish-brown moss-like plants with thin, elongated stems and small, rounded tips. The plants are densely clustered, with some stems standing taller than others, creating a textured appearance. The pot is placed on a dark surface, possibly a table or ground, with a wooden wall in the background. A dry, brown leaf lies on the surface near the pot, and a thin, light-colored stick is partially visible, possibly used for support. The lighting suggests it is a sunny day, casting shadows and highlighting the intricate details of the plants.

Das Video zeigt eine lebendige Live-Auftrittsszene auf einem Festival namens "Giessener Kultursommer." Auf einer großen Bühne spielen mehrere Musiker, die sich auf einer Bühne mit einem robusten Metallrahmen befinden, der mit Scheinwerfern und Lautsprechern ausgestattet ist. Die Bühne ist mit einem großen Tuch bedeckt, das von Scheinwerfern in verschiedenen Farben beleuchtet wird, hauptsächlich in Blau und Weiß, was eine dynamische und energiegeladene Atmosphäre schafft. Die Musiker sind in verschiedenen Positionen auf der Bühne verteilt, einige spielen Gitarren, während andere singen oder andere Instrumente spielen. Die Bühne ist mit einem großen Bildschirm umgeben, der das Geschehen auf der Bühne zeigt, und es gibt auch eine grüne Beleuchtung auf der rechten Seite, die das Ambiente ergänzt.

Im Hintergrund sind Zelte und ein Teil eines historischen Gebäudes zu sehen, was auf eine offene Veranstaltung hinweist. Die Zuschauer sind sichtbar, obwohl sie im Schatten bleiben, und scheinen die Musik zu genießen. Die Atmosphäre ist lebhaft und voller Energie, was durch die Bewegungen der Musiker und die intensiven Lichteffekte unterstrichen wird. Die Szene ist ein typisches Festtagsereignis, das die Musik und die Gemeinschaft feiert.

🧵About last night: Needed distraction to clear my mind, tinkering w/ electronics were perfect for a change. On top of that ezpz but one of these days list was my OG 3000, a designated JP model (= 100 V mains). Had to rely on crappy power converters for years, until I (literally) hacked an (oversized in every aspect) toroid 230 V transformer into it. The excess spec of the toroid made the 7x05/7x12 type regulators a lot hotter than before. Aside recapping and resoldering all PSU PCBs (done), there had to be a better solution one of those days.

See the ALT-texts for descriptions of a walkthrough.

Il mio interesse per la Guerra Civile Spagnola risale alle letture dei romanzi di Manuel Vázquez Montalbán di cui sono stato fedele lettore in gioventù. I suoi gialli dipingevano una Spagna devastata dalle conseguenze della dittatura fascista di Franco e fu proprio la sua biografia romanzata scritta da Montalbàn, Io Franco, a spingermi ad approfondire il tema.

Sono passati molti anni e ho deciso di rinfrescarmi la memoria. Il link al testo nel primo commento #beevor #guerracivilespagnola

"I wrote it down here, to never forget. Together with our Union Usb, with all the harbors' workers, with the whole city of Genoa - 13-14K containers per year sails from here to Israel - we won't let even a nail sail."

Genoa, the same city that in 2001 witnessed the brutality of the neoliberal 'rules-based order', the city honored a gold metal for the Italian Resistance, today is a staunching reminder of what class solidarity means.

Thank you, Genoa.

Follow the Global Sumud Flotilla, support Palestinians if you can via donations, keep protesting, and boycott everything you can. No activism is perfect,but no action is futile. To quote Andor's Nemik's manifesto:

"the day will come when all these skirmishes and battles, these moments of defiance will have flooded the banks of the Empires’s authority and then there will be one too many. One single thing will break the siege. Remember this: Try."
