Today is International Holocaust Remembrance Day. It’s been 80 years since the Liberation of Auschwitz and this is probably the last time the anniversary will be marked with survivors present. This makes it more important for those of who knew or knew of survivors to continue to testify to the truth and horror of the Holocaust.
Sorry, the marketplace of ideas is closed. Welcome to the pawnshop of delusions.
there is _nothing_ as delightful as Victorian Era prose.

New study finds 52 million metric tons of plastic waste produced per year.

That amount of pollution is enough to fill New York City’s Central Park with waste as high as the Empire State Building, according to the study.

Enough is enough! Quit buying plastic and they’ll quit making it.

@rbreich I was a 2nd generation loyal Kroger customer until about a year ago. That’s when their lack of concern about their customers chased me away never to return. I didn’t realize how bad their prices had gotten until I shopped elsewhere.

Kroger now admits it jacked up milk and egg prices above inflation.

Millions of shoppers had no choice but to accept it.

This is what happens when five companies dominate over 60% of American grocery sales.

Minimal competition means maximized price gouging.

Of course, you know I don’t like tatoos. But aside from that, I’m not sure how any person, or experience for that matter could be represented by something as incomplete as a picture. Even a book can’t represent one’s experiences properly. And too, our knowledge of things change as we age and mature. You’ll be a mother all your life; how can you know now all that experience holds for you?
And how will the boys feel about it? How will they feel in 30 years?

The one on the right looks like an order of fries from McDonald’s.

I have a controversial opinion. And I can't keep quiet about it anymore:

Everyone should have to spend their teen years writing their own game engine. Preferably for an embedded system.

Just learning how to generate a real time mix of sound effects and background music into all those PCM buffers as they're flying past…? That kind of service to your country changes a person forever.
