Ursula von der Leyen and Donald Tusk arrived at the Polish-Belarus border to discuss security issues.
Ursula von der Leyen:
"We have to keep this sense of urgency because we know that Putin has not changed and will not change. He is a predator.
In the last 25 years, he started four wars, Chechnya, Georgia, Crimea, and the full-blown invasion in Ukraine."

The license plate reader Flock has finally admitted to quietly giving some U.S. federal agencies, including Customs and Border Patrol access to its databases.
This is relevant for every city that contracts with (or is considering contracting with) Flock and for any contract with *any* kind of cloud-based surveillance company. These companies will absolutely lie.

I’m glad she’s happy, but if I could decide these things, @taylorswift13 would have fallen in love with some liberal brainiac. Given some new influences, with her storytelling skills, she might have come to write some kick-ass political songs that we need.
I doubt she’s going to get those insights hanging out on the Kansas City Chief’s bench, but hey, on any given Sunday, anything can happen in pro football, right?
Oh well, if only I could live other people’s lives for them. I’m sure I …
Microtonal music is basically not just 12-tones. It is a bit like the non-Aristotelianism philosophy from #scifi writer A. E. van Vogt applied to music (or vice versa) I guess.

he can have my 'thoughts and prayers', if I would pray to any god. Fact is, the Hungarian government hasn't done its job by weaning themselves off cheap russian energy.
So, my dear, you haven't done your job and want the rest of us to pay your bill, including the Ukrainians? Let me think shortly... Hell, No!
There's a bit of commotion on Lobsters because an unpleasant-but-technically-correct user finally got banned, and I realized that an unpopular opinion of mine is that moderators are always right.
I don't care about the letter of the CoC. I don't care about transparency, even. Moderation is the fundamentally human and nuanced big-picture job that shapes a community.

don‘t know the details, but „technically correct“ is not a criteria in fedi moderation.
It‘s the immune system of an instance. No fixed rules make it stronger and save a lot of energy.
This has worked quite well for multi-cellular organisms so far.

Happy for Hadjar, though. He didn’t do anything exceptional, but kept going, stayed out of trouble, and that paid off in the end. Clean race.
One experience that I think most Jews have had post-10/7 is that of solidarity. The non-Jewish world is increasingly unsafe for us, so many have banded together. Babka Social is an example of that, as most of the new accounts we have aren't from people who want to try Mastodon/the Fediverse, but Jews who were persecuted on other servers.
This article about Jewish authors who have been persecuted or blacklisted and have come together is an example of the kind of Jewish resilience that we have, but I wish we didn't need.

The end of August to the end of September, a season of uncertainty in the Western Mediterranean: unsettled weather patterns, fickle winds, brief but violent squalls, thunderstorms, and lightning. Passages are planned around benign but illusive ‘windows’ that, overnight, close and become chaotic.
Wrack is old but sturdy. Given and I are also old but a lot less sturdy. We staunch our impatience to set sail and wait, checking the weather every six hours.
