Fairly rock'n'roll way these ladies made sure the garbage was collected in working class neighbourhoods in Chicago in the 1880s and 90s.

This is despite consistent obfuscation, banalization and both-sidesism by German media and politicians.

But it's no surprise - a very large part of the population has long been indifferent or hostile to the political, cultural and media elite's unconditional support for Israel.

Since his entry into politics Netanyahu, has at times sidelined but never renounced on the idea of a Greater Israel and the mass expulsion of Palestinians from their land.

Whoever thinks vegetarianism and trans sensibilities is a recent thing in Europe, here's Walter Benjamin on the 19th century storyteller Nikolai Leskov, who according to Gorky was the most Russian of all the Russian writers:

2) “The tariffs make no economic sense from the perspective of American empire and the ostensible economic agenda of making America great again, yet it makes total sense as a politics of nativist, racial, and patriarchal resentment and revanchism”. As stated on Musk's hell site:

1) "The tariffs make no economic sense and constitute a gross miscalculation of self-interest on the part of the Trump administration. They will undermine the US economy and state." This is common sense among mainstream economics, but given a sharper edge by @lioneltrolling.bsky.social

Are the Trump Tariffs crazy or is there a rational plan?

Broadly speaking, I have come across three ways to understand the tariffs, which may be paraphrased in the following way 🧵

In a time of terrible news, the fact that Die Linke is not only getting into parliament in Germany, but growing, is worth noting. The party has more members than ever, @rosaluxstiftung.bsky.social will persist, and the nasty liberals of FDP are likely to lose all their mandates.

US imperialism in Europe has long been dressed up in the language of cooperation, security, and mutual benefit. Now Ukraine, like Denmark in Greenland, and with it the EU as a whole, is getting a taste of what imperialism - including the EUs own - has always been like in the post-colonial world.

The leader of the Danish far right party DF is all "Herr. Reichsminister, please understand that it's the governments' fault our military isn't strong enough to resist a Bolshevik invasion. Denmark stands with Germany; it's our current leadership that needs a course correction."

When rebuilt, the erasure of whole neighbourhoods will register positively on the bottom lines of real estate capital and result in a rise in GDP.

The systemic risk is a collapse of the housing market starting with massively increasing home insurance rates in areas at risk of fire or flooding.

Recently, Adam Tooze has repeatedly criticised the Gramsci quote about the interregnum, but in a way that is somewhat formalistic and ends up reaffirming a retrospective, non-teleological variant of the idea which is quite close to what Gramsci likely meant @adamtooze.bsky.social

Mike Davis on why Gramsci's widely invoked words about the interregnum don't offer a good characterization of our times. newleftreview.org/sidecar/post...

you can get your timeline to display stuff "your friends" are interacting with. I don't know if "friends" just refers to who you follow, or people you usually interact with or what

For sure, the use of the term seems to have been much more prominent in geological illustrations, although not absent from anatomical and zoological writings. So I think it's likely he got the idea from geological drawings, and used it in the anatomical sense.
