Musk’s allies were granted access to the U.S. Treasury payment system.

Treasury stays silent.

White House stays silent.

Why the secrecy? Time for an explanation and full transparency.

These new russian 'Molniya' drones are completely silent. I had no idea we were under attack until one exploded.
They just keep finding new, more effective ways to kill us.

The struggle for democracy is global, and transcends national boundaries even at the micro-level.

Tyrants everywhere have started to realize their common interests. Liberals everywhere need to fully realize theirs.
Incredible scene in Seoul tonight as President Yoon Suk Yeol’s supporters are storming the Seoul courthouse in response to his arrest. They are smashing the windows and vandalising the offices.

Many people asked if Scandinavian 'ingen' (no; not any; no one) is related to German 'kein' and Dutch 'gein', as these two come from medieval 'enkein' and 'engheen'.

No! Looks are deceiving.

'Ingen' comes from Old Norse 'e(i)nginn', from
'einn' (one) plus '-gi' (no) plus an ending, so it is ... 1/
Related words don't have to look alike.

Portuguese 'nenhum' and German 'kein' (both meaning "not any; no") have the same origin.

'Nenhum' comes from Latin 'nec ūnus',
'kein' comes from Proto-Germanic *neh ainaz.

These combinations meant "not even one" and had the same Proto-Indo-European origins:

In @trouw.nl licht Ilyaz Nasrullah toe, waarom Signal “hét alternatief voor WhatsApp” is: “Signal is wat WhatsApp had moeten zijn. Op één ding na dan: alle gebruikers zitten op WhatsApp.” Als oplossing wil hij een datum prikken voor “een nationale WhatsApp-overstapdag”. Ik stel 20 januari voor.

After David Lynch used my apartment to shoot some of INLAND EMPIRE, he stayed in touch via random phone calls. Every one of them was a treasure. His art has been part of my life since I was a child.

The world just got a little less weird, and we are all poorer for it.

Fix your hearts or die.
