Crushing Society’s Building Block

Joseph Stalin had an utter disregard for human life, and his regime claimed the lives of 9,000,000-20,000,000 of its own subjects. Yet even Stalin understood that society depended on strong, intact families.

Many of them are also whiny, self-centred narcissists prone to flying into rage whenever anybody tries to set even the softest and manageable of boundaries. If you’ve ever had an alcoholic or addict relative or a toxic narcissist partner: that’s pretty much every exec in tech and most execs in US today

The EU in this scenario is a criminally abused relative who, on the advice of their friends, is trying to set the softest of boundaries. Like “don’t beat me up on Saturdays before I’m going out”

Background: Turkey sent a 51-year-old guy with no specialized lenses, eye cover, or ear protection and got the silver medal in the 10-meter air pistol with a comfortable shot with hand in pocket. One wonders ...

Als het waar is dat de wolf, die mogelijk welpen heeft, afging op een loslopen de hond, wat al verboden is, omdat hij die hond als een bedreiging ziet, moet in eerste plaats de eigenaar van die hond aangepakt worden.

Provincie: kindje op Utrechtse Heuvelrug vermoedelijk ‘overlopen’ door wolf die op loslopende hond afging

De provincie vermoedt dat de (hoogstwaarschijnlijke) wolf die gisteren een aanvaring had met een meisje bij Austerlitz, het niet op haar had voorzien. ,,Incident geeft de indruk dat een loslopende hond een factor is geweest.’’

Never forget (from @briankrebs )

The loss of CISA would impact critical infrastructure security around the planet.

Damn I love this angle on it. I'd never connected all these dots before.

If Hamas assassinated Israel's ceasefire negotiator, legacy media & the White House would rightly erupt in outrage at Hamas' pro war injustice.

The Israeli military just assassinated one of Hamas' lead negotiators for ceasefire, in a third sovereign nation no less, and crickets from media & the White House. Zero condemnations.

If you care about releasing hostages, you don't kill the person negotiating their release. Yet another reminder that for Netanyahu, it was never about the hostages.
