I am terribly sorry to interrupt your doomscrolling, but today's Low Quality Ad is for this Squirrel and Acorn Plush Toy.
Is that acorn way too large? Yes. Is he still going to bury it anyway? Yes. Will he forget where he buried it even though it's ginormous? Almost definitely.

Plot twist: Realizing that it was going to be buried by the squirrel, the acorn decided to devour the mammal. This happens sometimes. Nature is crazy.



#FairyTaleTuesday #Celtic: `On the west coast of Scotland, the #Cailleach ushers in winter by washing her great plaid (Gaelic: féileadh mòr) in the Gulf of Corryvreckan (Gaelic: Coire Bhreacain - 'whirlpool/cauldron of the plaid'). This process is said to take three days, during which the roar of the coming tempest is heard as far away as twenty miles (32 km) inland. When she is finished, her plaid is pure white and snow covers the land.`

Guerra e tecnocontrollo: un combinato disposto


ChatControl, i suoi parenti ed il Digital Omnibus sono figli fortemente voluti dal Consiglio Europeo, scritti e formalizzati dalla Commissione Europea in modo tale che siano “digeribili” dal Parlamento Europeo senza che scatti l’indignazione dei più.

Sono provvedimenti così liberticidi che persino nelle formulazioni più edulcorate possibili, persino nell'attuale Parlamento Europeo non particolarmente progressista, non sono stati posti in votazione perché, con consultazioni informali si era verificato che il provvedimento sarebbe stato probabilmente respinto.

#TarotTipTuesday

Reminder to count your cards every so often to make sure you have all 78. It's easy to lose one, especially if you're an erratic shuffler, and you won't know if you don't count them. (Or you find them while cleaning your cats' hoard of toys from under the couch.)

That sounds like the voice of experience. You shuffle erratically?

@SJAsh_03 lol, yes, if at least one card doesn't pop out I'm not doing it right 😂

Il #GDPR può essere riformato, ma in un modo completamente diverso da quello attualmente pianificato dall'UE. In questa intervista, Schrems spiega perché non ripone più alcuna fiducia nelle autorità di controllo e perché le sue proposte di riforma sono sostenute persino dai conservatori

I just encountered the statistic that every year 3 tons of concrete are placed per person on earth and now I'm wondering how much of socialism you could reproduce by instituting a rule that you're not allowed to use concrete unless you can find some person to allocate that much concrete out of their 3 tons/year personal budget. Want to build a 2700-ton skyscraper? Better find 900 people to affirmatively agree they want that skyscraper built

globe + avocado emoji screenname people remind us that you can find 900 people who will support just about anything. if the Device That Ends All Life On Earth The Moment It's Constructed (as opposed to nuclear weapons, which merely might do so at an undermined point in the future) only needed 900 yes votes we'd have been toast long ago.

I think unfortunately this is one of those times the "concrete georg, who sits on his ass and owns 30000 million tons of concrete", is actually real

Senior #BorderPatrol official #GregBovino returns to #Chicago

#Bovino, the face of the #Trump admin’s #immigration crackdown, was photographed Tuesday in the predominantly Mexican American neighborhood of #LittleVillage by the Chicago Sun-Times as neighbors & activists blew whistles & shouted.

#Bovino & his team were seen detaining a man near 27th Street & Ridgeway Avenue in #LittleVillage around 10:20 AM. Nearby, neighbors & activists shouted, blew whistles & set up trash cans to try to block a #BorderPatrol caravan.

“All you’re doing in terrorizing us, scaring people. There’s little kids,” one person shouted at Bovino & other agents, blocks from where the arrest happened.

Other sightings on the Southwest Side & in Cicero were reported earlier Tuesday morning by rapid response teams that track & monitor #immigration *enforcement* activity. #BaltazarEnriquez, president of the #LittleVillage Community Council, said agents had arrested another man who was biking near 26th St & Kedvale Ave around 9:30AM.

It’s unclear how long Bovino & his team will remain in the area, following relatively short stints in Charlotte, NC, & New Orleans.

in reply to Nonilex

#Bovino & his agents previously traveled to the #Chicago area in Sept, weeks after the #Trump admin launched Operation Midway Blitz, the #deportation campaign that has stoked fear among the city’s immigrant communities & led to thousands of arrests.

That mission was mired in controversy & driven by aggressive tactics, including car chases & the use of chemical munitions, takedowns & chokeholds.

in reply to Nonilex

US Dist Judge #SaraEllis blasted the approach, restricted the #UseOfForce & ordered #Bovino to appear before her for daily check-ins. An appellate court later put a hold on those restrictions & called off the daily meetings, & the plaintiffs in the underlying case moved to dismiss it after Bovino & his team left last month.

Tricia McLaughlin, propagandist for #DHS, has insisted that #immigration enforcement efforts aren’t winding down in #Chicago.

in reply to Nonilex

…US Rep Jesus “Chuy” Garcia on Tuesday said his office was aware of “a large group of masked federal agents” arriving in #Chicago. His office told the Sun-Times a “planeload” of agents had arrived to continue #immigration enforcement.

Garcia, who represents #LittleVillage, said the feds were deploying “tactics designed to maximize fear” by sending an influx of agents so close to the #holidays.

this is a regime led by someone who cannot create....can only disrupt or destroy what already exists. Creation requires all the attributes this mangled piece of flesh lacks.

“Tactics designed to maximize fear” is the definition of terrorism.

Attacco cyber contro l’Asl 1 dell’Aquila, chiesti danni per 2,5 milioni di euro. Eppure il Garante Privacy si era limitato ad un ammonimento

Nel 2023 l’attacco cyber contro l’Asl 1 abruzzese aveva causato il furto di dati medici molto sensibili di oltre 10mila persone tra pazienti, dipendenti e consulenti. Il Garante Privacy, tuttavia, si era dimostrato molto “morbido” verso l’Azienda.
