Canadian. Paying attention. "...when feeling decreases.. apathy increases, when one cannot affect or even genuinely touch another person, violence flares up as a daimonic necessity for contact, a mad drive forcing touch in the most direct way possible."

Reminds me of about 20 yrs ago when there was some fluff piece on her in one of the magazines, where they showed her at her office desk, from where she ran her various businesses, they said. It was completely bare.
They've always been super weird.

The BBC reports that 200,000 Ukrainians in the United States are at risk of deportation. Even people with valid documents are reportedly being held by ICE for months.

Polymarket has created a betting market on the use of nuclear weapons. Everyone involved in this should be put in prison for life.

Could the press please, finally, learn this lesson:

Everything these people said about Afghanistan, Iraq, the Middle East, starting new warsβ€”all of itβ€”was false. Not because they meant the opposite, but because they're post-truth and say whatever they think gets them an advantage in the moment.

urrgh, I hate that, I spell creatively a lot.
I had an editor who changed my yeah's to ya's once to save space in a small column, and I could've lost my mind, I held a grudge for so long, lol.

Yup, honestly some of the worst unrelenting stress/panic I'd ever gone through.
And yup, I wouldn't wish it upon anyone ('cept him), so let's all learn the lesson of being gentle and rly caring for ourselves!

I think I have a high tolerance for pain (yrs of period crampsTilIPassOut & migraines, both gone now), so it didn't seem THAT bad. Scary itchy though. I likened it to how an old friend had described the (nerve type) pain of herpes, which I think is related.
I had chickenpox as a kid,also related?

Sounds terrifying! So glad you got help though. I'm pretty healthy & rarely see my doc. I showed the pharmacist pics (just purple, no blistering). Some came up so high/close to my butt that I kept looking up what hemeroids were! It subsided after a cpl wks & doc later said it sounded like shingles.

(I've found myself praying for everyone I know of with sons in their teens or 20s these last few years. )
I don't even like to admit it out loud.

Aaaw, no. I got it 2mo into a SUPER stressful govt job, where co-workers all got sick w/something, covid, etc. Anyway, worked remote, no time 4 doc visit, so worked thru it... hip & thigh. Couldn't sit straight for a bit, fluish ~2 days. Pharmacy wouldn't sell me itch cream. Had no idea what it was.

yeah, I said to someone earlier, that not that it was a wrong decision, but it couldn't come at a worse time, when it already feels like there's no stable ground, and won't be anywhere, for a long time to come.
I mean, when even the whole vertical/US/Can westcoast won't be aligned -absolute mayhem.

I wonder how that feels for an octogenarian.

You're right on time, Gonz!
After next week we (B.C.) will never change our clocks forward or back again. So barring me finally getting my math homework done, I'll henceforth be on RileyP time engaging w/the rest of the world... foreverafter.

Those are the easy parts. The tough part will be all the math people will need to do in order to make contact, etc. over the continent.
Not that it was a wrong decision, but it couldn't come at a worse time, when it already feels like there's no stable ground... feeling will no doubt only escalate.

X Is Drowning in Disinformation Following US and Israel’s Attack on Iran WIRED has reviewed hundreds of posts on X that promote misleading claims about the locations and scale of the attack.

β€œAlmost all of the most viral posts reviewed by WIRED on Saturday came from accounts with blue check marks, meaning they…could be eligible to earn money based on how much engagement their posts generate, even if the content is false.”

This is right. And people hate to hear it, but Joe Biden’s single most important task was to Trump-proof the US.

His task was to destroy the Republican Party to punish them for Trump, salt the earth over them, and implement big structural reforms to stop future R minority extremism.
And he failed.
