Donald Trump has put Putin over the American people time and time again. Now, a new report says that he secretly sent Putin COVID tests while withholding them from sick Americans. On November 5, choose reason—not treason.

Wow, I had not realized that. All the news says "covid tests." Here's an article that actually says "testing devices," which is what they all should say.

Love this doorway on the Alice Mary Corbett Nurses' Home on the site of the former Samaritan Hospital for Women on Coplaw Street in the Southside of Glasgow, especially the dragons!

AI is theft
"AI is based on what we call ‘the privatisation of collective intelligence’. The value of generative AI tools is based on original human creative work that has been ripped off and monetised. All of the books, paintings, articles and recordings used to train generative AI models are largely unacknowledged and unremunerated. No consideration has been given to the human creatives whose work is used to create knock-offs and competitors in the creative market."
Today in Labor History October 9, 1874: Mary Heaton Vorse was born. Vorse was a labor journalist who participated in and wrote eyewitness accounts of many of the significant labor battles of her day. In the 1910s, she was the founding editor of the “Masses,” as well as an activist in the suffrage and women’s peace movements. In 1912, she participated in and wrote about the Lawrence textile strike. She helped organize the Wobblies’ unemployment protest in New York, 1914, and was good friends with Elizabeth Gurley Flynn. In 1916, she reported on the IWW Mesabi Range strike. And in 1919, she worked as a publicist for the Great Steel Strike. She also wrote the novel, "Strike!" about the 1929 textile mill strike, in Gastonia, North Carolina, which was made into a film in 2007.

Flu season is coming, it's time to think about getting those seasonal immunizations. We are going for to get our seasonal vaccinations this morning, both flu and covid 19. You know, you have to protect yourself.
Stay safe!

I had been about to get my next vac but then...
A painful experience, still laboring with it.
That would be great, especially in crowds. I stay home a lot but have to venture out now and then.
Hopefully, conditions will improve for you.
Just needless. I supose it just needs time
GROOMED TRAITOR TRUMP
Donald Trump was cultivated as a Russian asset over 40 years and proved so willing to parrot anti-western propaganda that there were celebrations in Moscow, a former KGB spy has told the Guardian.

I mean, money, state power, & network effects are obvious answers to that question.
But it sure SEEMS like we on the side of a living planet ought to be able to engineer SOMETHING.

It still shocks me just how abrupt and sharp a change he has (at least outwardly) made.
