quotes by Musk and Hannah Arendt
“In my work with the (Nuremberg Trial) defendants, I was searching for the nature of evil, and I now think I have come close to defining it. A lack of empathy... a genuine incapacity to feel with their fellow men. Evil, I think, is the absence of empathy.”
- Captain G.M. Gilbert, US Army

Sie haben zu wenig Geld. Das ist illegal! Sagt Männchen 1
Was, wieso? Sagt 2
Rechts oben
M1 Weil sie durch ihre Armut dazu beitragen, dass es Armut im Land gibt, pfui.
M2 Hey, ich bin nicht absichtlich arm, ok?
Links unten
M1 Dann legen Sie sich gefälligst Geld zu, sonst kriegen Sie ne Strafe!
M2 Wenn ich die zahle, hab ich NOCH weniger!
Rechts unten
M1 Pech für Sie. Wir brauchen Ihr Geld, um es den Reichen zu schenken.
M2 Wofür? Die sind doch eh schon reich!
M1 Aber das reicht noch nicht.
Unsere Politik wird hier wirklich treffend skizziert 🙈

title: Lagrangian Mechanics and a representation of L=K-U asking for the reason of the minus sign
new video: "Lagrangian Mechanics: when theoretical physics got real." In addition to some history, I take Newtonian mechanics and derive Hamilton’s principle, revealing how the mysterious quantity K-U naturally appears, answering the common question "why is L=K-U?" youtu.be/QbnkIdw0HJQ 🧪⚛️🔭 #chemsky

Meanwhile, "many in Maga-land are working very hard to capitalize on the murder of Charlie Kirk" On Monday, JD Vance, who once called Trump
"America's Hitler",
, hosted Kirk's podcast from the
White House and blamed the left, without evidence. Said Vance: "While our side of the aisle certainly has its crazies, it is a statistical fact that most of the lunatics in American politics today are proud members of the far left."
"And by 'statistical fact',
' he means 'complete
bullshit'" Kimmel corrected. In fact, the Department of Justice removed from its website a study finding that violence from far-right groups is the greatest source of domestic terror and extremist violence in the US. "Here's a question JD Vance might be able to answer: who wanted to hang the guy who was vice president before you?" Kimmel said. "Was that the liberal left? Or the toothless army who stormed the Capitol on January 6."
"The president and his henchmen are doing their best to tan the flames, so they can I guess attack people on the dangerous left," Kimmel added, noting the incongruence with the right's former vision of so-called "snowflake" liberals. "Which is it?" he wondered. "Are they a bunch of sissy pickleball players because they're too scared to get hit by tennis balls? Or are they a well-organized army of commandos? Because they can't be both."
This is all he said?! This is why ABC (in response to threats from Trump's FCC) is taking Kimmel off the air?!

three pics of billionaire brian johnson from 2018 to 2024. in each one, he looks increasingly like a quirked up mid 30s trans woman who works an office job and goes to raves on the weekend aka the exact kind of woman i would think is too cool for me to have a chance with
still extremely fucking funny to me that this guy claims to be on a "non feminising" dose of estrogen. like man at this point i have to ask, do you have any idea the kind of deranged thirst comments you could get on trans lesbian twitter

apart from loosing the escapism card, the hormonal changes can also change how ADHD symptoms manifest, and undo years of piled up barely-working coping mechanisms. On the up side, that crash led to actually get diagnosed and trying medication now, so there's that... :')

I published two stories today. It was a great honor to work with Afeef Nessouli on the one documenting the genocide and famine in Gaza. Afeef spent 9-weeks there, and we tracked how the U.S. dismantling USAID & UNRWA has made getting food deadly for kids, men, women, queer & trans Palestinians

Ein Völkermord muss nicht exakt so aussehen wie der Holocaust, um als Völkermord bezeichnet und eingeordnet zu werden. Er muss den rechtlichen Kriterien des Art. II der Völkermordkonvention entsprechen.

Nun hat die israelische Armee auch weite Teile der Stadt #Gaza zur Kampfzone erklärt. Die Menschen können nirgendwo hin fliehen, ihr (Über-)Leben wird unmöglich gemacht. Zu diesem Schluss kommt auch Omer Bartov in der @nytimes.com.

how is 'better', a comparative, gramatically, not fit to describe the relationship between cow milk and almond milk, given the 4 bar graphs in the image? Cambridge literally defines the word as 'more suitable, pleasing or effective than other things'.
