“Astronaut” is ancient Greek for “Star Sailor”
But sadly that’s all we know about the ancient Greek space program.

This is a must read.
I don’t really know what I expect in posting this, but maybe some people see it and can learn from it.

I’ll call it “lessons from an unwilling immigration attorney.”

This is genuinely insane, I clicked to see the years expecting the low part to be 70s or maybe 90s but its 2015!!!!! The entire anti trans panic is a decade old
a stat i always cite is the number of anti-trans articles in the press went from 60 in a year, to 7,500

Many Europeans believe that their countries and governments are better than the current Trump admin and violence exercised by ICE, but it only takes a little research to see that Europe is just better at hiding its sins against immigrants.

Then who the fuck are all these people claiming to be ICE agents in Minneapolis?
Homan: "ICE is a legitimate federal law enforcement agency. We're not out scouring the streets to disappear people or deny people their civil rights or due process."

“Four of my children just evaporated,” Badran said, holding back tears. “I looked for them a million times. Not a piece was left. Where did they go?”

There are no words to adequately describe the evil here.
Israel used weapons in Gaza that made thousands of Palestinians evaporate
US-made thermal weapons burning at 3,500C caused 2,842 people to "evaporate" in Gaza, Al Jazeera investigation finds.

In the entire history of formalised sex verification in women's sport from the 50s to the present day, do you know how many instances of men disguising themselves in order to sneak into women's sport they've found? Zero.

At university, we’d have no idea who’d be out that night, so we’d just wander down to the pub in the evening and see who was there

After WWI they introduced passports and hard borders, "to protect against foreign agents" entering countries. Now we have people drowning in the English Channel and Mediterranean to protect those borders. Little kids being abducted in the US.

I think you need to be from a pretty big and monolingual language community to think that lyrics being comprehensible to you is integral to your enjoyment of the music. Or perhaps it's just that I can't even parse lyrics in languages that I do understand.
“I’m mad I can’t understand Bad Bunny’s lyrics because they’re not in English”

my brother millions of metalheads around the world have been happily listening to incomprehensible Finnish shrieks and Japanese death grunts since we were teens, you’re just boring and racist

We live in capitalism. Its power seems inescapable. So did the divine right of kings. Any human power can be resisted and changed by human beings. Resistance and change often begin in art, and very often in our art, the art of words.

Það er nákvæmlega svona sem áróður gegn borgarlínunni virkar.
"Public investment" vs "Wasteful Subsidy." The only problem with this clever Singer cartoon is that some people might actually not get that it’s sarcastically illustrating the incorrect perception problem, NOT telling the truth.

Just in case it actually needs to be said, the truth is the opposite.

It does worry me that a kid's odds of getting out of a tortuous detention center are mostly dependent on whether a random bystander got a perfect picture of them looking sad

Ég er ekki mikið fyrir samsæriskenningar því auðvitað eru hlutir flóknari en flestar þeirra gera ráð fyrir, en mér finnst það einfaldlega meira en líklegt að þetta sé ágætlega stór partur af sögunni.
Öll "klúðrin" kringum nýja spítalann eru ekki klúður ef tilgangurinn sé að búa til klúður fyrir heilbrigðiskerfið til að þvinga vilja fyrir einkavæðingu.

Bara til upprifjunar. Dorrit og ÓRG eru í skjölunum frægu samkvæmt fréttum dagsins. Þau eiga vingott við Epstein og Maxwell og sameiginlegur vinur spyr í pósti hvort þau séu nokkuð núna á eyjunni.

Ég afþakka hér með ráðgjöf ÓRG um alþjóðamál.
Næst þegar ÓRG tjáir sig um Donald Trump ætti fréttamaður að fylgja eftir með follow up spurningu:

Eigið þið Trump fleiri sameiginlega vini, eða bara Ghislaine Maxwell sem þið buðuð hingað til lands eftir að maki hennar hlaut fyrsta dóm sinn fyrir mansal og barnaníð?

Nonsense. It's not possible to steal AI technology. I know this because Google's own LLMs are built using a complete copy of my legal blog, and that's somehow not stealing because, as Google says, a complete copy of my legal blog is both trivial and utterly essential for their tech to work.

Það er auðvelt að kenna ríkisstjórninni sem er ekki jafn hliðholl auðvaldinu og hún gæti verið (og þar að auki leidd af kellingum sem vita auðvitað ekkert um ekki neitt), eða tásumyndum hins almenna borgara um verðbólguna en ég vona að við vitum það öll hverjir sökudólgarnir séu, er það ekki?
