Strongman rule is a fantasy.  Essential to it is the idea that a strongman will be your strongman.  He won't.  In a democracy, elected representatives listen to constituents.  We take this for granted, and imagine that a dictator would owe us something. But the vote you cast for him affirms your irrelevance.  The whole point is that the strongman owes us nothing.  We get abused and we get used to it. 

Another pleasant illusion is that the strongman will unite the nation.  But an aspiring dictator will always claim that some belong and others don't.  He will define one group after another as the enemy.  This might feel good, so long as you feel that you are on the right side of the line.  But now fear is the essence of life.  The politics of us-and-them, once begun, never ends. 

We dream that a strongman will let us focus on America.  But dictatorship opens our country to the worst the world has to offer.  An American strongman will measure himself by the wealth and power of other dictators.  He will befriend them and compete with them.  From them he will learn new ways to oppress and to exploit his own people.

At least, the fantasy goes, the strongman will get things done.  But dictatorial power today is not about achieving anything positive.  It is about preventing anyone else from achieving anything.  The strongman is really the weak man: his secret is that he makes everyone else weaker. 

Unaccountable to the law and to voters, the dictator has no reason to consider anything beyond his own personal interests.  In the twenty-first century, those are simple: dying in bed as a billionaire.  To enrich himself and to stay out of prison, the strongman dismantles the justice system and replaces civil servants with loyalists.

Please, spill some tea on Al’s relationships. 😭 Someone on quora has said Diane is painting herself as the victim while we don’t know his perspective, that she is the one who never had a long term and stable relationship while her exes went on to have their own families. And I’m like… dude… Al Pacino has kids but he sure hasn’t had a stable relationship with anyone, lol.

AH HELL NO, NO BULLSHIT ABOUT DIANE LIKE THAT >:( Also incredibly mean and more than likely untrue lmao like we need to automatically take Al's side on what happened in their relationship? 👀 I mean really, it was a private relationship between two adults that started like ~50 years ago, so based on what's publicly out there, I know that...

Diane said on the Ellen show she had quite a few relationships that lasted "about 5 years". She also said no man she ever dated proposed to her, which is why she didn't end up married. I actually ended up finding out that Warren Beatty did in fact propose to Diane but she said no. I found on this article a reason why, which is Diane wanting to focus on her career, but I can't find the original source I read it on which didn't state a reason--just simply that Diane didn't want to marry him. I read that this happened during the filming of a movie they had together and as a result, Warren made Diane rehearse a scene (or something) again and again on purpose to take his frustration out on her. Again, don't know if this is true or not, just what I read!

Also, to assume that someone hasn't had stable relationships because they never married or have children is such utter bullshit.

Y'all wanna talk about unstable relationships? Let's talk about Al Pacino real quick. 😂

Al's first mentioned gf was Jill Clayburgh, an actress and I believe they got together around 1967. The broke up a short while after TFG released. Al talked about wanting to marry her and have kids in the future but what did he do? He told her he was in love with another woman and left her just like that.

We know how on and off Al was with Diane and how that one ended. What I still can't find any info on or make sense of is them breaking up in 1990, but no mentions of breakups in 1988 or 1989, but Al having a child in 1989 with someone else? Sheesh.

There was an interview Al and Marthe Keller did together around the Bobby Deerfield days. Marthe was almost describing what kind of wedding/wedding gown she would want to wear. She was saying no pressure on marriage/kids, and the interview described Al as being quiet, awkward and not saying anything. Marthe was head over heels, swooning a whole paragraph about how amazing Al was and he said nothing. All he did was smile awkwardly. They broke up later down the line of course, and Marthe I believe kept one of his mugs he drank out of.

I'd recommend reading "A Life on the Wire" for all the Al relationship tea, let me tell you that. Personally from what I've read in it, "unstable" doesn't even begin to cover it lmfao. Cut Diane some slack, y'all. 😭

kinda pissed there has been absolutely no mention of Blake and TFG theme song? wtf?

I heard two things on this. Both were just reading comments on articles so nothing concrete.

One said the studio heads thought those 80s lyrics rating women’s looks with numbers were problematic (kind of dumb imo because it’s only one line and in the context it’s just supposed to be a guy being cocky). The other said that the song does play at the credits and that it is so good that it is worth staying seated to hear.

Had a jumpscare that did psychic damage to me. As I was scrolling through comic news I skimmed too quickly and thought an article said Tom King was going to write a new L.E.G.I.O.N. book.

It was neither tfg but I didn’t need that terror.

#the dude doesn't even know what a fascism is and is a bootlicker why would he ever write this series #no nvm

[jerseydeanne]

Do you know where I can find the pages of Pfizer “adverse reactions” that Court mandated that they release. I cannot find them.

Hey tfg!

Not really, but here is an article with a PDF with tiny writing that you can look at.

It's not good, and I don't trust MSM or MS Internet for the information.

Thanks man

Love, JD 😜💋

[the-orangeauthor]

hey sunshine! how are you doing?

I hope you're good <3

since you have already graduated uni, I was wondering if you could help me with a little (big) problem I have that's making me stressed

(it's okay if you can't/don't have time/don't feel comfortable with sharing!!!!)

So, next year im in fourth year (if everything hopefully goes right🤞🏻) and that means I have to write a thesis, here called End of Grade Project or TFG. And although is entirely a thing for fourth year, my profs have already advised us that we should start thinking about topics and themes to write our thesis about

if you've done a thesis, how did you choose the topic you wanted to write about?

also if you have tips to spare, i'd love to know them, cause it's making me pretty anxious and rationally I know it's not a problem for Present Me, but I get nervous nonetheless

a million thank you's<33333333333333

(and, in case you can't help me, which is again totally valid, use this ask to tell me about your day, your writing or whatever interest you have atm, I'd love to read about those as well, haha)

Good evening my sweet cup of coffee, it has been a very long week but I am back to answer this for you ❤️

I have a link here to a post I made recently briefly covering how I did my thesis but I can go into more depth for you!!

You do a degree in psychology right? I don’t know how that would differ from mine but I asked around and here’s how it works:

Because I did a biomed degree we also had lab based thesis options which is what I went for as the practical experience was great for my masters application. I had quiet a few friends go for essay only projects and here what they did to prepare:

Read - every time, always, look at new research in your field, new studies, explore areas that you covered in lectures that caught your eye and see if there’s still more to discover - there always is

Personal experience - as with most science degrees / healthcare related degrees there’s always some kind of personal element you can link there, my friend wanted to research MS since someone in her family had it etc

Are you planning on further study in a specific field? I knew I wanted to do research in immunology so I went for the project most closely related to it so I could use that as an opportunity to research it more

Brainstorm - if you have several or few ideas make a brainstorm and just write what you know / don’t about each one, you may find that one of these topics leaves you with interesting questions you might want to pursue

Speak to your professors!!! Your professors are experts in their fields, talk to them about ideas that you’ve come up with, if they think there’s enough research out there for you to get good info for your project etc

Speak to your friends - you’ve all studied the same thing for years now, bounce ideas off of each other

Your notes - go back and look at what you’ve learnt. Where are the question marks in the research? Which of these experiments should have had more variables? How would a new demographic change the results you have?

Read read read read read read read read - you don’t have to read the whole article, the opening abstract will be enough to start sparking some ideas

Remember, your thesis isn’t about the results and data you gain, it’s about showing the professors that you are capable of evaluating large sums of information, selecting what is relevant, and drawing logical conclusions from what you’ve read.

Have fun with it, it’s a big project and you’re going to spend a lot of time on it. Make sure your final topic is interesting to you (absolutely does not matter if everyone else thinks it’s boring, this is for you) and make sure you understand at least a few foundational concepts for it. You’re already thinking about it pretty early on so you have plenty of time to bounce around ideas, and never be afraid to run it past your professors for advice, it’s what they get paid for!!

I hope you’ve had a lovely week ❤️❤️❤️

Saturday Morning Coffee

Good morning!

I hope everyone is having a splendid morning. I began composing this post while my coffee was brewing. My cup is now in hand. That means the old noggin will wake up so I can finish. ☕️

Waxy

This morning, I was shaken to learn Heather B. Hamilton (formerly Heather Armstrong) aka Dooce is no longer with us. I learned the news from a post to her Instagram, confirmed by several friends after and then the Associated Press, announcing the tragic news that she died yesterday at the age of 47.

I think this caught most of us off guard. Dooce was one of the folks I followed in my early blogging days and was very influential to blogs in general. She wasn’t just a Mommy blogger.

RIP Heather. 🧡

Vox

Donald Trump has just been found liable for sexual battery against journalist E. Jean Carroll.

Good for E. Jean Carroll. I’m glad she made a large withdrawal from the bank of Trump. The man clearly doesn’t respect women, he doesn’t respect anything, except maybe Putin.

I hope more women come forward for their day in court now. This man deserves to be shamed at every turn so normal people see what a disgusting human being he is.

Cars are so darned expensive. I have no idea how anyone can afford a new one. Kim and I have purchased one new car in our 35 year marriage and she took it back a week later because she didn’t like it. The car was $15,000.00 out the door.

Good thing she took it back. It was a Saturn. 😆

WPE WebKit Blog

In the previous post in this series, we explained that WPE is a WebKit port optimized for embedded devices. In this post, we’ll dive into a more technical overview of the different components of WPE, WebKit, and how they all fit together.

I’m a sucker for articles about porting software and making it run on many platforms. This piece is a 30,000 foot view of WPE and a short read if you like this kind of stuff. Plus it has a nice little diagram. Always a plus in my book. 🖼️

Jezebel

A Texas man, 22, was arrested on Wednesday evening for fatally shooting his 26-year-old girlfriend for traveling to Colorado to get an abortion, the Dallas Morning News reported on Friday.

Texas is full of absolutely insane people packing guns on their hip.

Look, a woman’s body is hers and hers alone. Sure you could ask, even beg, her not to get an abortion if you’re the father of the child but ultimately it’s her body, her choice.

Your choice is to stay and support her decision or walk away.

This man chose to take her life and destroy his. Poor choice dude.

Republican politicians love to say we have a mental health crisis that causes these senseless crimes. Why is Texas so full of mentally unstable people with guns? Texas needs better leadership or we should boot it out of our Union. 🤬

Ned Batchelder

At work, we work in GitHub pull requests that get merged to the main branch. We also have twice-yearly community release branches, and a small fraction of the main-branch changes need to be copied onto the current release branch.

It’s surprising how powerful git is. Ned has put together a great little guide for how one might cherry pick their commits.

There are so many ways to manage code changes and branches. This is one of many and worth your time to read if you’re a developer of software.

Oh, and it has beautiful diagrams to illustrate what he’s talking about. 👨‍🍳💋

Rolling Stone

CNN Is Hosting a Town Hall for a Guy Who Tried to Get Me Killed

This piece is by Officer Michael Fanone. Mr. Fanone was one of the Capitol Police Officers tasked with protecting the Capitol on January 6th and had a front row view of the violence of that day.

He’s right, CNN shouldn’t provide a stage for a domestic terrorist. TFG should be tossed in prison and disqualified from holding public office, but no, we’re gonna let him run for President again know full well he’ll destroy our democracy if he wins.

Officer Fanone is lucky to be alive. 🍀

Pixelfed is the Fediverse version of Instagram. Like Mastodon it doesn’t have a corporate master and anyone can host their own server.

I’m not sure why Instagram would see it as a threat, but here we are. 😂

The Next Web

The UK bank analysed its internal customer fraud data between 2021 and 2022. It found that the Meta-owned sites and apps account for a whopping 80% of all scam cases within its three biggest fraud categories: purchase, impersonation, and investment fraud.

I have a feeling Mark Zuckerberg was thrilled when Space Karen took over Twitter because it’s been such a mess nobody is talking about how terrible Facebook is.

crnković

How I accidentally breached a nonexistent database and found every private key in a ‘state-of-the-art’ encrypted messenger.

Buyer beware. Companies can make claims about how awesome their technology is and it could be janky. This is a prime example. It looks like the company is lying to hide their flaws or maybe they don’t know what they’re doing?

WBOI

Students at Carroll High School announced last week they would be putting on an independent production of the play canceled by administration earlier this year.

These kids had their school play shut down because it included a non-binary character and a gay couple.

This is the world we live in and we can choose to love people for who they are, not shame them.

This will, of course, go down in history as a head scratcher in future generations. They’ll wonder why we were so stupid to be so afraid.

Apple Press Release

CUPERTINO, CALIFORNIA Apple today unveiled Final Cut Pro and Logic Pro for iPad.

I’ll be interested to know how many Audio and Video Professionals make use of these new apps. Hopefully we will see some great reviews from folks who actually do this kind of work.

I love their pricing. Yearly for $49.00 US or $4.99 per month US. It’s great because you can subscribe for a month and try it out. If it works for you great! You can subscribe for a year. If not you’ve lost $4.99. Not bad.

I’ve decided if I ever get around to writing my next app I will be using this pricing model. It should allow for constant updates throughout the year and no need to worry about batching up a bunch of big features for that big one time new version sale.

NNPP protest in Abuja brazen affront on democracy – Taraba Group

More groups have continued to condemn recent protests by members of the New Nigerian Peoples Party, NNPP, Taraba State chapter, at the national headquarters of the Independent National Electoral Commission (INEC) in Abuja. One such recent condemnations is coming from a pro-democracy group, Taraba First Group, TFG, which described the protest as a “brazen affront on democracy” On Monday, Chieftains of the NNPP from Taraba, stormed the premises of INEC in Abuja, demanding a review of the results of the just concluded governorship election in the state. The group is also seeking the cancellation of the governorship election in Taraba. But the Taraba First Group, TFG, insists the electorates are prepared to defend their votes. TFG in a statement made available to newsmen in Jalingo by its Coordinator, Inusa Aliyu, said INEC must not allow any anti-people development with devastating outcomes. The group said the protest in Abuja is fake and a desperate attempt to upturn the people’s will. ”Why didn’t they carry out the protest in Jalingo, instead they went to Abuja.?’ “Any attempt to touch the people’s wish shall not only be roundly condemned but it shall be vehemently resisted. “Taraba State had a very transparent election with a clear winner emerging with a large margin if anything, everyone has been expecting congratulatory messages from Professor Sani Yahaya of the NNPP”. Claiming that the protesters are not from Taraba State, the group said, ”We are amused by this desperation on the part of national NNPP, as a matter of fact, we even doubt if this was sponsored by NNPP Taraba because they know the truth.” While calling on INEC to remain steadfast, the TFG also asked the NNPP to follow the laid down procedures by approaching an election petition tribunal.

Nice review of Andrew Kirtzman's new book:

 " In 2002 alone, Giuliani took in an estimated eight million dollars in speaking fees. A spinoff outfit, Giuliani Capital Advisors, made $84.7 million in 2004. By 2007, Giuliani’s worth was estimated to be thirty million dollars. At one point, he owned six homes, including a nine-room co-op on the Upper East Side and a house in the Hamptons, and had eleven country-club memberships. 

But his work for Donald Trump has reportedly brought him to the brink of bankruptcy. When he tried to get paid for his services, Trump stiffed him. (Giuliani apparently failed to notice the one-way sign on the Trump loyalty street.) He now hawks collectible coins, health products, and cigars on his podcast, “Rudy Giuliani’s Common Sense,” and sells video messages on Cameo for four hundred dollars apiece. In April, he appeared on “The Masked Singer,” where he offered his rendition of “Bad to the Bone” in a rooster costume. 

This is someone whom Oprah Winfrey called “America’s mayor,” who was named “Person of the Year” by Time, who had an honorary knighthood bestowed on him by the Queen of England. What happened? The rough answer suggested in Kirtzman’s book is that a posture of moral rectitude, instilled in Giuliani by his Catholic education and made into a powerful political weapon by a personality that, as a friend said, lacks the fear gene, succumbed to Mammon. 

Righteousness, as it often does, morphed into self-righteousness. After launching his career as a federal prosecutor and winning convictions of Wall Street inside traders like Ivan Boesky, Giuliani seems to have decided that riches were his due. Back in private practice, he began taking on all sorts of sketchy clients, from Purdue Pharma to the Mujahideen-e-Khalq, an exiled Iranian militia group that, in collaboration with Saddam Hussein, had slaughtered Kurds...

Of course, bad guys need lawyers, too. The trouble was that Giuliani was cashing in on a reputation for honesty and probity with unseemly avidity. He evidently didn’t care about how it looked. “His descent was the result of a series of moral compromises made over the years as the temptations of power and money grew,” Kirtzman writes. “By the time he reached an advanced age all those compromises left him an empty vessel, filled with a desire for power and little more. Alcohol, and a toxic marriage, were exacerbating factors, though not the cause.”'

Tips For Choosing Travel Clothes || OhCanadaShop

It's difficult to pack for a trip, especially if you want to bring only a few things. In order to ensure that you bring the appropriate items on your trip and prevent overpacking, each piece of travel apparel you pack must be pertinent. Follow these guidelines to decide what clothes are appropriate for a vacation with a variety of destinations, activities, and climates, and pack lightly with TFG!

Does it function in various circumstances?

Exploring a city's attractions is one of the things that make traveling fun. Your clothes need to be functional in a range of venues, including restaurants and nightclubs as well as treks and temples. Choose vacation attire that is fashionable but not extremely revealing to be on the safe side. A low neckline cannot be worn almost everywhere, but a maxi dress can. Although a button-up blouse is adaptable, it may be overly revealing if it is too translucent. Even if they are lovely, short shorts can be too short. Always bring clothes that are appropriate for accessing places of worship or visiting less popular tourist destinations. Check out this article on Stylish Options for Respectful Dress on ohcanadashop.com

Can I utilize it more than once?

Everything you carry should be multipurpose. An item can fulfill multiple purposes without having to be a "convertible" piece. Think about these instances: In principle, convertible pants make perfect sense because they are a 2-in-1. However, they are frequently unflattering, which discourages many females from wearing them. It's preferable to discover something stylish and useful, like these excellent travel pants! If you don't like something, why pack it? A seductive cocktail dress would be fantastic just in case you are invited somewhere very fancy, but for maximum adaptability, bring a more adaptable alternative that can be worn up or down.

Is it enduring?

Think about the lifespan of a piece of clothing you wear at home. Even cheap clothing can last for years if only worn rarely. However, due to frequent use and different washing techniques when you travel, your clothes put in extra work and their lifespan may be shortened. While it's necessary to bring sturdy travel apparel, keep in mind that after a while everyone gets bored of wearing the same thing over and over again. Choose things with a price tag you are comfortable foregoing but that won't fall apart after a few washes.

Does this require a lot of room in my bag?

Consider how much space you need before you buy something or choose something from your own closet. If it's particularly large, you might want to bring something smaller. The secret is to layer your clothing, even in frigid locations. But that doesn't mean you shouldn't pack it if it can be worn regularly and goes well with many of your other options for travel attire. For instance, jeans can be bulky and hefty, but the advantages greatly exceed the drawbacks. Even bulkier goods like pants and coats can be compressed using packing organizers, but try to pick lighter items that you can layer if necessary.

Will drying time be excessive?

Quick-drying clothing fabrics are advantageous because they tend to pack lighter and are simple to wash when you're continuously moving. The mere presence of "quick dry" cloth on a label does not guarantee that it will function. The same is true for everyday apparel; just because it isn't designed for travel doesn't imply the fabric won't dry rapidly. You'd be shocked at how much of your current wardrobe dry quickly. Check it out! The majority of your clothing should be able to dry fast if you plan to bring less than 10 pieces because your options will be more constrained.

Does it complement the other vacation attire I've chosen?

It's crucial to make the most of your vacation wardrobe because there aren't many clothing options. Plan to wear interchangeable clothing and choose each item extremely carefully. Check to see if your items can be worn in a variety of ways and experiment with the numerous combinations that may be created with your selections. You can avoid overpacking in addition to being well-prepared by selecting complimentary items and making early plans for travel ensembles.
