Keeping the Louise Glück party going with this signature poem
I grew up in a little English town thinking that you needed a magnifying lens to see snowflakes in all their intricacies..then I came to know Canada Winters… other half took this photo…❄️✨
"fallacy" is a weird word to use. the actual conclusion is that yeah, raising cattle feed in the desert is fuckin stupid and wasteful as shit, it's just our hyper anachronistic legal system prevents obviously correct decisions

I find it baffling how many people online are acting like Israel controls the U.S. It does not.
gen x: just create yer way out of it. learn to code. sell your mind as is on eBay to the highest bidder, hide out in suburbia, have kids, take refuge in supposed anonymity, be content with the next new thing to distract you, never read beyond the headline…
also gen x: tldr;
and also what art can bring to the table, makers mark and not the kind that lands ya under it, but the kind that brings joy back to work, not to be a jerk but to gig and to grift is to shirk that obligation across the nation to create a better tomorrow, beg steal or borrow but we must get there
ugh, sry about the reply guy thing. it’s an early morning excitation of the fields and finding out what it yields and not meant as aggression, the opposite really an urge to collaborate toward a better life free of strife, sweet land of poetry, to thee i sing
… fun fact, drive throughs cost cities millions in lost tax revenues and make congestion worse not better, but still North American cities persist in permitting them. car culture has replaced civic life and any notion of community is measured in chocolate glazed donuts. glad Edinburgh dodged that
not sure about Ireland but here in the US it means a new donut shop has opened in the area
the technocrat splat
when yer last note lands flat
when yer end-game is getting fat, chasing screams and ignoring dreams, gen x, living off their hair
Matrilineal Divorce
Cherokee society was matrilineal. Women’s clans owned the house & fields. Husbands lived with the wife’s clan.
Divorce was simple, symbolized by the wife placing his belongings outside, he returned to his own clan.
No courts or lawyers. Children remained with the mother.
more stupid moves guaranteeing our dependence on oil…
maybe nature made us mostly stupid as a species and this guarantees self destruction. extinction is the norm, survival is the exception. a billion years from now the next species perhaps will learn from these mistakes… maybe
Funny how when Israeli
Zionists talk about
'from the river to the sea'
in support of ethnic cleansing
to establish Greater Israel,
politicians & media
make zero protest

"Sorry, I have to keep using that fascist's media platform because how else will I get my message out about how bad fascism is?"
Encourage the #eXodus
We need Mamdani-types to replace the entire feckless spineless Democratic party.
I give you: The patriarchy.
And men wonder why they're facing loneliness?
These words are things every single woman has dealt with.
And continues to have to deal with.
I've been researching the idea of Unconditional Universal Basic Income since 2013. Here's a collection of findings I've compiled from various UBI experiments and studies of cash transfer programs around the world.
This will be a VERY LONG and ongoing thread focused entirely on empirical evidence. 🧵
there is a law in Florida that makes it illegal to think what you want—that makes it easy peasy for a governor to declare individuals or groups an enemy of the state and send them to private prisons… and we should be alarmed as fuck over that, that it even made it this far. no matter where you live
Calls to forget and forgive after rights were stripped and lives lost are not reconciliation, they are an attempt to erase accountability. Democracies survive only when harm is named, truth is faced, and those who endangered people are held responsible.
As I grew up the MSM told us the enemy was the left wing trade unions, but now we see the failings of Neoliberalism, it's final inevitable drift into fascism and the toxic ethos of Western elites, which have reached their current zenith by dragging the world deeper and deeper towards world war 3,
TRUMP: “The Tomahawk missile that destroyed a girls' school in Iran could have been anyone's. A Tomahawk is very generic."
RTX manufactures Tomahawk missiles in Phoenix and the U.S. only sells them to the UK, Australia, Japan, and the Netherlands.
Trump is straight-up lying.
Iran ablaze as US-Israeli bombs bring chaos and bloodshed
🛢️The war has triggered shockwaves across the global economy, especially oil prices which jumped over 20% last Sunday
⭐The US & Israeli bombardment of Iran had killed over 1,350 people in its first week.

Price of oil has slipped 8% in the hours since Donald Trump suggested the war in Iran was “very complete”
"I think it will be judged by world opinion as illegal & probably unnecessary.. theres no strategic brain in operation at the top of the American govt, by which I mean theres no strategic sense that they know what they're doing"
Not even the defence analysts are backing this war
tipping tables and
challenging fables of any reconstruction… grok well the face of the stranger and beware the danger of false idols. make money obsolete and our politics complete. do the needful, the deed full…
done.
ideas being what actually make the world go around, what else can a society obsessed with money create but a sham taken to its furthest logical extent? current administration is what you get when money rules all. e pluribus Arnhem and all the shit that flows out of the Rhine, Robber Baron effluvia
Still crazy that the president’s lawyer spent two days with Ghislaine Maxwell, she “cleared” him of wrongdoing and was almost immediately transferred to a more pleasant prison and nobody in the administration will explain it and the media acts like two large dots are just impossible to connect.
