Apologies for reduced interaction lately - due to ill health.

In life, possessions are not what is important. Friendships and family are. Shared experiences are. Helping others achieve their potential. Making the world a better place for everyone. Stop voting for Politicians who only care about 'stuff' like gold wallpaper.

(Who I am isn't important - I'm not here to promote myself)

Life is an education, and I hope to learn from many of the wonderful people here.

In his Language of the Third Reich, Victor Klemperer described Nazism as a linguistic barrage. A way of warping minds and subverting democratic values through rhetorical excess.

Klemperer knew what this language harbored:

โ€œWhat happens if the cultivated language is made up of poisonous elements or has been made the bearer of poisons? Words can be like tiny doses of arsenic; they are swallowed unnoticed, appear to have no effect, and then after a little time, the toxic reaction sets in.โ€

@WarnerCrocker

Surely that would cost far less than the actions he is currently embarked on in an attempt to kill half the people of the US?

Are any of these Corperate news outlets going to speak to any of us who were in the field for Bob Vylan or just do their trademark dehumanisation and ignorance of people like you and me?

Are we are all 'Terrorists' now Daily Mail?
Are we all Hamas now, Zionists?

A question for folks out there who read fiction. I am an indie author with a new book. I do not use AI in my writing. Should I put a note or sticker on the cover which says something like "This story is entirely human generated" or "no AI was used in the making of this book." Would readers be interested / reassured by knowing it is all human-made? My covers are also designed using photos I took myself.

Edit: Please boost for reach.

There are no good billionaires.
There are no good ICE agents.
There is no such thing as a welfare cut without casualties.
There is no such thing as a progressive Israel.

I wish Asimov's first law of robotics applied to human beings

A robot may not injure a human being or, through inaction, allow a human being to come to harm.

(I'm less happy with the second law)

'If international law is to mean anything at all, it must be rescued from the grip of great powers and returned to its founding promise: that no life is more valuable than another, and no perpetrator is above the law.'

Indeed. I wouldn't even know who Bobby Vylan or Kneecap are if they'd just kept quiet.

Palestine Action is seeking a legal challenge against the Labour Governmentโ€™s bid to proscribe the group under anti-terror laws.

Supporting statements have also been submitted by Amnesty International, Liberty and European Legal Support Centre over concerns of unlawful misuse of anti-terror measures to criminalise dissent, a spokesperson for the group said.
