Anyway, found a new route today, ran up to it on Friday, but came a different way back. The route today, I thought was a cul-de-sac, but it is not, though to call it a road is being generous. It's typical of Malta's roads - wrecked! 🤣

At the top, the app's logo, "Brain MAX," is displayed in a colorful, stylized font, accompanied by the text "AI Super App" in a glowing purple font.
Below the logo, there is a search bar with the text "Search everything, ask anything" in white and pink. The search bar contains a query: "What are the brand guidelines for the Q1 campaign." Additional options are visible beneath the search bar, including "Summarize my work," "Create a task," and "Write a report on my team's performance." These options suggest the app's capabilities in managing tasks and generating reports.
The overall design is sleek and modern, with a focus on functionality and user interaction. The interface is clean, with a dark theme and highlighted elements, enhancing the visual appeal and usability of the app.

As Trump defunds Planned Parenthood, it's a good time to look at histories of abortion struggles that reject the government and major institutions and instead build feminist popular power from below, including the ability to conduct abortions and other reproductive care.
In my 2024 article “'To Repulse the State from Our Uteri': Anarcha-feminism, Reproductive Freedom, and Dual Power” I analyze how anarcha-feminists critiqued the state and attempted to build feminist dual power in response to the New Right’s attacks on reproductive freedom.
From the 1970s to today, anarcha-feminists have sought to build grassroots infrastructure, knowledge, and organizations like self-help groups in which they learn how to conduct abortions and other reproductive care, thus taking back power from the state and medical industry.
Women’s capacity to care for their own bodies and reproduction materially lessens state power. Establishing grassroots reproductive health care infrastructure is a key component of building autonomy and feminist dual power that challenges the rule of the state and capitalism.
Read more on anarcha-feminist abortion struggles in my article in Radical History Review “'To Repulse the State from Our Uteri': Anarcha-feminism, Reproductive Freedom, and Dual Power,” which you can find at the @library theanarchistlibrary.org/librar…

The video begins with a slide that reads "40 Alternatives To Self-Harm" in white and pink text on a dark purple background. The slide also includes a pink hand icon with a heart in the palm, symbolizing care and support. The text "SUICIDE PREVENTION MONTH September 2021" is displayed at the top, indicating the context of the message. The scene then transitions to a new slide with the text "1. HARM SOMEONE ELSE" in white, bold letters, also on a dark purple background. The text "SUICIDE PREVENTION MONTH September 2021" remains at the top, maintaining the theme of the video. The video focuses on providing alternatives to self-harm, with the first suggestion being to harm someone else, as part of a broader effort to raise awareness and promote mental health during Suicide Prevention Month in September 2021.

Gorgeous Monsters & Their Pets
Welcome to my new interview series. I am the official human spokesperson for the Guardian Monster Guild, editor of the "Monster Times & Review" and author of the glamorous tell-all book, "What Monsters Want". These are hard-won credentials that I have worked tirelessly to obtain. As an ordinary human being, entering the realm of Monsterdom requires a rigorous determination, and an ego that can survive all manner of taunts, threats and indignation. I have endured countless nips, pokes and licks from numerous monsters whose intent, it seems, was to provoke me into giving up. I have proved them wrong! NOTE: This latest set of interviews on monster pets is for human eyes only and includes interviews with a select group from the Gorgeous Monsters Society. (This is the name they give themselves.) Here we discuss their feelings of unabashed adoration for their beloved pets as well as their care and feeding.
Meet Ms. Premivarria of the Chewston tribe & her Screaming Meemees: Alto, Basil and Suprema.

I think the route being mostly flat helped a lot - unsure where that pace had been hiding.
