Black American soldiers literally dug these WWII graves. Traumatic. To acknowledge that fact at a cemetery they helped construct is something the Heritage Foundation cannot accept. As Veterans Day approaches, never forget that this country both compels and disrespects Black military service. Always.
1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

Mini: Do Our Pets Understand Us?
We have very special relationships with our pets. We usually try to talk to them. Do they understand what we are saying? Do they know their names? We quickly explore what it means for our pets to "understand" us or to "know" their names. There are some things we know about this and some things we don't.

But it is technically incorrect. The truth is that *we do not know the contingencies operating on their learning histories*. 1/

Fantastic "why you can't trust geo-IP lookups for anything operational" case study.
Case in point - someone hid an AirTag in their artwork at a large show I helped hang. The cell tower crew was outside and fired up a new temporary tower, which was set to an address 10 miles away. AirTag goes off and says “I’m 10 miles from where I should be” and the artist called the cops.
