An example of how media props up fascists. "Failed to stop"; is not true, of course. GOP policies *actively caused* inflation. But the wording still implies Republicans are good faith actors who want to help Americans. That is the bigger lie, and the one they desperately want us to buy.

The Associated Press@apnews.com

Trump promise to bring down costs, but inflation is still outpacing paychecks. With the midterms a week away, Democrats are trying to tap into voters’ frustration in the midterms.

In his acceptance speech, Lula says he will work to regulate digital platforms in Brazil. “Digital crimes must be dealt with like real-life crimes.” This comes after Meta directly interfered with the Brazilian elections, favouring Flávio Bolsonaro.

In one day, two politicians - Bolsonaro in Brazil and Vucic in Serbia - with ties to Trump have lost surprise elections thanks to high turnout. The rise of the international far-right is not inevitable.

Electing Bolsonaro as president of Brazil was a huge project for the Trump administration towards which large resources were mustered, including US diplomatic and consular staff. This constitutes interference in the internal affairs of Brazil. But Trump doesn't care. www.reuters.com/world/us/ins...

Honestly, as a nation, after having re-elected Trump with a majority, being left with a ballroom and arch is kind of deserved. Someone willingly infecting themselves with pox "to own the libs" should not complain about having to wear marks for the rest of their life.

A carefully planned Russian propaganda operation is underway. Having starved people in Oleshky for months, Russia, with the 'intervention' of Melania, will allow people to leave and pretend Ukraine was at fault. Read @zarinazabrisky.bsky.social www.kyivpost.com/analysis/88041

this is actual a vast open source eco system! there may have been different bacterial groups using different codon systems. but if you're sharing protein sequences, and your code is different, you'll build garbage. you get left behind and die out. *that*'s the reason everybody has the same code.

so the idea is that the actual LUCA is way further back, but the bacteria would keep updating themselves with the newest inventions, down to the codon table (which is universal apart from latecomer tryptophan, which deviates here and there UGG>UGA).

We saw Elon spending a billion to keep the Senate coming. (There's more coming and more unreported.) The best move would have been to warn voters that it was coming. Now we need a party-wide movement to call out this abomination. stopthetrillionaires.com

Agentic #AI is a weird pyramid scheme due to its nature as an exponential accelerator. if you're slightly more talented (or wealthy), these tools make you exponentially more productive. so relatively few will get much richer,with everybody below getting relatively poorer.

this *might* be masked by general actual wealth increasing exponentially: more millionaires while trillionaires rule like emperors. still without measures, people in position of power and/or talent will fly off the chart and thus take over more than they already have.

turkey — »Ellipsis of turkey-cock and turkey hen, originally denoting the guinea fowl, an African bird that was first imported to Europe through Turkey« so by that logic, the bird should be renamed to türkiye-cock/hen > türkiye.
