NEW: We obtained internal emails from city government of Springfield, Ohio. These emails show the absolute chaos caused by Trump and Vance after claiming Haitian immigrants were eating pets.

Racist threats, hateful emails, media bonanza. A nightmare

Spreading racist conspiracy theories to villainize groups of minorities is a key tenant of fascism. No one arguing in good faith can deny that the Republican party has been taken over by fascists at this point.


Bolagsförmedlarna. Ekobrottsmyndigheten (EBM) larmade i september om att så kallade bolagsförmedlare samarbetar med och underlättar för kriminella. Detta bland annat genom att sälja så kallade historikbolag till personer med tvivelaktiga syften och kriminellt förflutet. Dessa bolag anävnds i en mängd brottsupplägg på flera olika sätt.

TIL about COAR Notify notify.coar-repositories.org/s… a domain specific (as used anyway) protocol that builds on recognizable things like ActivityStreams. Very interesting (and sounds like the applications are even more interesting).

Yemen’s Houthi group yesterday revealed that a new long-range drone was used for the first time to attack the Israeli city of Eilat earlier in the day.

Houthi aligned Ministry of Defence said: “The Yemeni Armed Forces have used the Samad-4 drone, which has dual mission including reconnaissance and offensive operations.”

According to the site, the Samad-4 drone can reach more than 2,000 kph, and is able not to be picked up by air defences.

Coates' responses were brilliant, and he remained remarkably calm (more than I would have).

The artist today is:
The Wailin' Jennys are a Canadian music group. A 2011 review says they "sing like siblings and play like seasoned veterans".[1] They have released several albums and received two Juno Awards. The group has been featured several times on the American Public Media program A Prairie Home Companion.

A thousand times yes. The first time I ever heard them was when they performed Bird Song on A Prairie Home Companion, and I had to pull my truck over. Their music is my anti-anxiety med.

@HarriettMB I do think that much that Trump does is staged, a kind of manic acting out to draw attention to himself. I also suspect that, increasingly, he simply can't control himself. To me, the signs of serious mental decline are very evident (something I say having seen my mother descend into dementia). I think this is why he's refusing to do onto "60 Minutes." He and his handlers know it would be a colossal mistake, since he's not mentally fit.

The Israeli military said one of its soldiers was killed in combat operations in Lebanon on Wednesday, marking the first loss since its forces crossed the border to target Hezbollah.

"Captain Eitan Itzhak Oster, aged 22, fell during combat in Lebanon," the military said in a statement.

Hezbollah said its fighters were clashing with Israeli troops who had "infiltrated" a southern border village.

Needed headphones for walking the dog / being outside. My requirements were that they were wireless and I could still hear cars / nature. The Soundcore C30i are perfect.

I've never liked "bud" headphones because it's weird having something directly in my ear, and I typically like over-ear headphones (open for at home, closed with noise-cancellation for on a plane).

The C30i is more like you're wearing a small speaker earring so they are super comfy. Neat design!

@jorgesanz Yeah, when I want sound quality I reach for my open / closed headphones. I don't generally like buds, and find listening in only one ear super strange. These don't sound fantastic, but they are perfect for listening to a podcast while walking the dogs. It's good to have options!
