I hear ya, Ed - doing research and fieldwork all week is exhausting!! (You should have a cookie or two as a reward btw)

That is a false equivalency. A Nobel prize requires extensive scrutiny from a respected international body. Cancelling / rigging elections only requires collusion from his cronies in the U.S.

No, this has been the plan all along. It's been obvious for the last year that free and fair elections in the U.S. are a thing of the past.

You'd have to shut them down worldwide, the Epstein files name of people in positions of power and influence across the globe.

Educating for Interbeing Webinar Recording
YouTube video by TNHSchool of Interbeing Educating for Interbeing Webinar Recording

Watched this webinar recently. While it is mostly about their new school, it's also about the whole ethos and movement behind it.
And I love the switch from "interconnected" to "interbeing"

Melania director Brett Ratner pictured cuddling woman in Epstein files The images of Ratner with Epstein and unidentified women were released the same day as his documentary about the US first lady.

Very high chance that this headline *should* read "holding child against her will".

Not exactly conclusive when you read the report but hey - it makes a great headline

It is extremely unlikely that any future elections in the U.S. will be fair, assuming they even go ahead

Thank you! πŸ™
Definitely worth the read. Especially the (what should be obvious) point that alternatives to fossil fuels won't exist unless we build them. It's a highly complex issue on both supply & demand sides. My 2 questions re: nuclear are: how quickly can this be done, and how safely?

I do not need anyone to "fight against" my autism. I need people to accept and, hopefully, understand it.
I am So. Damn. Tired. of masking and fighting.

An interesting read, even if you have no interest in food preservatives. It makes very good points about how we interpret data and survey results. #academicsky #food #health
