I don't see them listening unless AI comes up with a good argument against AI.

We are humans. Even when we find quality answers, we forget them, even if only temporarily, in the intensity of life. Too, you have a highly refined sense of justice. That's not wrong, but it can be hard to deal with. I'm as guilty as anyone else. Not past it at all.

I would listen to THAT. I really don't think he can spell RENT, much less comprehend and respect its values.

They leverage hate for political advantage.

I wish there were many fewer gutless corporations out there.

I am unfamiliar with this, but the Index Journal is based in Greenwood, not Greenville. Small quibble. Thank you for posting this. Illuminating.

With Sophie and Hans. There weren't going to be any appeals. I have four books on the White Rose, and a recent book with correspondence from Sophie and Hans. That's in German of course.

She was convicted and sentenced to prison, but was scheduled to be tried again just before the Allies liberated the area. No one thinks she would have been sentenced to anything other than death in a second trial. Once sentenced, they typically carried out the executions the same day, as they did

It may interest you to learn that the last surviving member of the White Rose died in South Carolina in 2023. I had known that Traute Lafrenz was there for a few years. I thought how magical it would be to talk with someone who knew them all in her youth. But I was never going to disturb her.

Lovely to see you. We also went to the place where Sophie Scholl through the seditious flyers into the atrium, resulting in the capture of her and her brother, prior to their sham trial, convictions and execution by guillotine. She is the greatest hero I will ever have.

Ich mag TSO. Sie kommen jedes Jahr.

We went to see her Secret Annex in June. Heartbreaking.

Thank you, @j1j2.bsky.social

You are one of my favorite resistance fighters on bsky.

He seems a fine candidate to honor in a NN Pub Quiz.

The puzzle is why THEY think there is political advantage to be realized by measures like this. I think they want to validate the idea that if we put our heads in the sand, we can short-circuit scientific truth. They want to believe what they want to believe, and the felon is happy to validate that.

I think it is more likely to happen when even those media outlets complying understand that it is the Gulf of Mexico.

I'm not at all confident that 'evaluation' by the Food and Drug Administration would inspire confidence. What is their mandate under this catastrophic administration, that doesn't care anything for the health of citizens Indeed, which works to undermine that health where possible?
