Fediverse moderator observation: disagreeing with or disliking someone’s bad takes does not (necessarily) make them a fascist or a nazi. Some people are just regular assholes our shitheads and being hyperbolic doesn’t really help. The terms nazi and fascist are so overused here as to have lost most of their meaning.

Also, please please please, strive to be kind. I know it’s hard and kindness can’t be unlimited. There are a lot of assholes and shitheads in this world, and treating someone badly has likely never changed their mind nor ever will.

Thank you for attending my talk.

30,000 Palestinians killed.

— World leaders: “Israel has a right to defend itself.”

7 international aid workers killed.

— World leaders: “ISRAEL HAS GONE TOO FAR!”

If your moral values change depending on the nationality of the victims, you do not have any moral values.

All you have is racism.

Oilsands companies omitted ‘important information’ about the industry’s carbon pollution in a massive marketing campaign, researchers say in a new paper published in a peer-reviewed journal https://thenarwhal.ca/pathways-alliance-greenwashing-allegations-study/

Trump gives a speech on how a female murder victim was killed by an illegal immigrant. He tells his audience, that he talked to the victim's family, and explains how the murder victim was really loved by them for being a positive individual.

The family then steps forward and explains they never talked to Trump. He just lied to use the woman's murder and their grief in his political campaign.

You know — like a man chosen by God himself would do. 🙄

Went shopping at my favorite store. They sell vegetables that are a bit raggedy in these small boxes for $3. I bought one that had 8 tomatoes a head of romaine and two straightneck squash visible. Turned out to have 6 bell peppers and 8 more squash underneath. Everything is very fresh. Probably just arrived from Florida. But blemishes.
So I will be eating lots of squash.

Materials & Methods:
"The experiment that brought sleep science to global attention was one that Kleitman performed on himself. In 1938 he and a graduate student, Bruce Richardson, descended into the depths of the Mammoth Cave in Kentucky, where they spent the next 32 days a quarter of a mile from the nearest chink of daylight, maintaining an artificial sleep-wake cycle of 28 hours. They kept time with alarm clocks, took their temperatures regularly, grew beards, stashed chamber pots in the cave recesses, ate fried chicken and smoked cigarettes, all on a rigid timetable of nineteen hours awake followed by nine asleep."
