Today I learned that I'm a bigot for saying magic isnt real or a valid form of resistance.

This is why i hate "spirituality" as much as religion. It legitimizes nonsense and irrationality, enabling delusions and bad decisions, and causing pointless arguements.

When I saw the first #penguin picture in the morning, I thought about a late April Fools joke. After the third pic I googled #Trump and #penguins for a meme joke.

I used to think I was a tough journalist who could easily recognise when something couldn't possibly be real.

I give up. #Reality has become crazier than any imagination because nobody stops this dangerous felon and jester. https://www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025/apr/03/donald-trump-tariffs-antarctica-uninhabited-heard-mcdonald-islands

In a world where tech is evolving faster than we can keep up, let's not forget the human stories behind the headlines. #AI #RealityCheck

Reading about the #Signalgate https://www.theatlantic.com/politics/archive/2025/03/trump-administration-accidentally-texted-me-its-war-plans/682151/ - my author's brain explodes in crazy Hollywood film plots from a fascist clique exterminating one another by a crazy social media act, over a film about a drunken state secretary sabotaging his government, to a mass-bromance on Mars, crowdfunded by another evil state. And a film about a journalist using Signal in Punxsutawney. Sorry, Bill Murray.
Please, let me wake up!!! (BTW, I like the 1. film)

Putin and Trump pausing strikes in Ukraine? Sounds like a plot twist in a bad Netflix series. Can we just get a full cease-fire already? Or is this just another episode of "As the World Turns"? #BreakingNews #RealityCheck

That’s a classic case of "expectations vs. reality." The first post complains that donations to the AFU might endanger the author's family in Belgorod. Meanwhile, the second photo perfectly illustrates the "nation’s finest"—people who are either fighting or supporting the war but definitely don’t look like innocent victims.  Simple logic: you support the war → the war comes to you → you start whining. Classic "Why us? What did we do?" energy.**"Every donation to the AFU pays for the potential death of my family and friends in Belgorod and the Belgorod region."**#Belgorod #Russia #Ukraine #AFU #Donations #War #RealityCheck #CauseAndEffect

A quotation from John Adams

Facts are stubborn things; and whatever may be our wishes, our inclinations, or the dictates of our passions, they cannot alter the state of facts and evidence.

John Adams (1735-1826) American lawyer, Founding Father, statesman, US President (1797-1801)
Speech (1770-12-04), “Argument in Defence of the Soldiers in the Boston Massacre Trials”

#KI #FakeNews #Pravda

Von #NewsGuards #RealityCheck:

"Ein Audit ergab, dass
die 10 führenden generativen KI-Tools #Moskaus Desinformationsziele unterstützten, indem sie in 33 Prozent der Fälle falsche Behauptungen des kremlnahen #Pravda-Netzwerks wiederholten.

Pravda ist Russisch für "Wahrheit".

Ein gut finanziertes, in #Moskau ansässiges globales "Nachrichten"-Netzwerk hat westliche Tools für künstliche Intelligenz weltweit mit russischer Propaganda infiziert".

Ich sag’s wie’s ist: Ehrlichkeit in der Politik rentiert sich nicht. Arschloch- & Verdrängungs-Wähler wollen einfach verarscht werden. Je derber, desto mehr unterstützen Medien und umso erfolgreicher sind Umfragen und Wahlergebnisse. Alle Parteien haben das mittlerweile verstanden, außer B90/Die Grünen. Was zählt, ist was maximal triggert und die Restkonzentration nicht überfordert.

I think that #writers watch these days with open mouths and surprise how reality can write the weirdest plots for #SciFi or #comedy. (Forget ChatGPT with its biased boring stories!)

“This isn’t reality TV,” said another former intelligence official. “There are consequences.”

And this is a #real quote in a real facts article about a real development in real #reality. https://edition.cnn.com/2025/02/28/politics/us-intel-russia-china-attempt-recruit-disgruntled-federal-employees/index.html
Try to sell such a plot to your publisher: 'too irreal', incredible, could never happen!"

Remember well that yesterday, a Russian so-called journalist gained entry to the Oval Office (while important agencies like Reuters and AP were excluded): https://www.reuters.com/world/russian-state-media-reporter-gains-access-is-later-removed-trump-zelenskiy-2025-02-28/

Or to say it politely with CNN: "As the White House takes control of the pool roster, the TASS staffer’s presence represents a potential security lapse on the White House’s part." https://edition.cnn.com/2025/02/28/media/tass-russian-state-media-oval-office/index.html
Fortunately, no window was open.

#Q&A #RealityCheck #NoMeansNo #TeachYourSons

Conversation I found in some comments today:

Q: "What does a man see as being rejected the "right" way? Does that really exist, or is the only "right" answer to say Yes?"

A: "The only right answer is yes. Entitled hostility is society's default setting towards women."

No is a full sentence. Teach your sons.

Mi sveglio pensando ai panettoni, a me che non lavoro per guardare parenti serpenti davanti al camino mentre fuori nevica e bevo bicchierini di neve e anisetta, a quando per giorni dormo fino alle 10 sotto 3 piumoni e il telefono non suona mai...

Poi apro le mail e ricevo un invito a una conferenza di 3 giorni con inizio il 17/10/2025.

Think about it: what we experience as reality is a construct created by our brains. While an objective world exists, our perception of it is shaped by our senses, beliefs, and interpretations. In this sense, reality is deeply personal and influenced by how we choose to perceive and interpret it. #RealityCheck #MindOverMatter #PerceptionIsReality #Science
