I was walking through Pittville Park in Cheltenham, Gloucestershire, when I bumped into a lady carrying her pet cat on her back in a kind of pet backpack. This was something I had never seen before, so I asked if I could take a photograph of them both. She kindly agreed.

Meghan Markle e l'accento un po' british e un po' americano di Archie e Lilibet: «Quando pronunciano alcune parole sono proprio come il papà, adorabili»
Tra accenti americani e inflessioni che arrivano dal Regno Unito, i piccoli Sussex tornano alle origini britanniche soprattutto quando pronunciano alcune parole. Un esempio? «Zebra»Alessia Arcolaci (Vanity Fair Italia)
In case you still have any questions about why Republicans and other rightwing political parties across the globe are desperately trying to stop the deployment of renewable energy, this well describes what they fear.
Renewable energy threatens the obscene profits that the fossil fuel industry has been making.
It's as simple as that. No need to complicate it or accept any other excuse the fossil fools will try to get people to believe.

@GhostOnTheHalfShell the one thing i always try to keep in mind is that in the early 20th century the system was far more corrupt and at least pre-trump far more captured by the robber barons than our current system is by the broligarchs and yet somehow people managed to vote their way out.
of course they also had a class traitor in the form of FDR (and they didn't have fox news)
It's not taught in history, but if you go look or listen to certain economic historians, you will find out that FDR was in supported by three political parties and the labor unions.
Two of those political parties were socialist and the third one was communist.
Those kind of political parties were stamped out of existence by McCarthyism
Notice that the Democrats or the Republicans didn't lead it.
It would actually be very interesting to dredge up the editorials, particularly of people like Henry Ford, who is the most remarkable antisemite.
He and Hitler had a mutual admiration club going on. Contemporary New York Times papers suggested that in the midst of hyper inflation and economic crisis. Hitler enjoyed the most luxurious of offices and ample resources to hold rallies.
It was suggested that Henry Ford was bank rolling him. That was the early 20s.
@michaelgemar
Atlantic wrote fairly interesting article on Henry Ford’s ties with Adolf Hitler.
They concluded the article with the recounting of Henry Ford viewing film of what was discovered in the Nazi death camps, the emaciated bodies so on and so forth.. if I recall correctly, when the theater lights were brought up again, he was found unconscious, having suffered a stroke and died sometime later..
Elon is in a different league.
I think the other note I'd like to jot down here is the Sherman act played central role. There was also a lot of other measures, but antitrust was a foundation of limiting economic, and therefore political consolidation.
Ultimately politics and economics has to be thought about in terms of who has decision-making power primarily over their own lives.
When wealth gets beyond a certain point, the rest of the population loses any say.

L'immagine è un meme diviso in due parti. La parte superiore mostra un uomo con occhiali, vestito con una maglietta bianca con la scritta "TURKIYE" in nero, che tiene una pistola rivolta verso l'osservatore. Sullo sfondo, si vede un cartellone con le parole "PARIS 2024" e gli anelli olimpici, suggerendo un contesto sportivo. La parte inferiore dell'immagine mostra un water con un tappetino di cartone sul sedile, con un foro al centro. Il testo in alto recita "RICORDATE: DIETRO OGNI RISULTATO SPORTIVO" e in basso "C'È TANTO, TANTO ERESCIZIO". Questo meme gioca sulla doppia interpretazione del testo, suggerendo che dietro ogni risultato sportivo ci sono molte ore di allenamento, simboleggiate dal tappetino di cartone sul water.

Cleaning out my office turned up a pile of extra USB cables, more than I need. How do you figure out what each cable can do for power and data? Are there devices you can buy that test a cable’s power delivery and data throughput by plugging it in and reading the results? If you have recommendations for a plug-and-measure USB cable tester that checks both power and data, let me know. thanks!
