And in an increasingly complex society in collapse, we are going to need more expertise, not less. There's no way that we as individuals can know all that we will need to know to survive the coming years.

I just want to add that every single time I’m aware of where ICE has claimed that someone they shot was trying to ram ICE with their car, later investigation has shown that ICE lied. I wish PBS had included this background in their reporting.

People getting mad about this probably don’t remember AEDPA, the Anti-Terrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act, which passed the senate by 91-8, and the House 293-133, and was signed into law by Bill Clinton.

What Derek Chauvin did to George Floyd was a public extrajudicial execution. Keep that in mind when you say we haven't had a public execution since 1936. We have, actually. Many times. They're called police murders.

Ustinov seemed to at least ‘get’ Poriot even through he’s about as physically far away from the book’s description of him. The movies he did didn’t always follow the books, but they were thematically close if OTT & watching Diana Rigg & Maggie Smith in a diva duel in Evil Under the Sun is very fun.

Branagh lost me with the first poster for his Poriot adaptions. Then later he made Poriot into an atheist when his Catholic faith is a part of his character from the beginning. I’d rather watch Peter Ustinov as Poriot than Branagh.

My sleep schedule (which is an effect of my chronic illness) means that trying to be awake in time to call before 4pm means I have to wake up early & just the stress of that can trigger a fatigue flare. It’s very frustrating.

On the plus side, the scheduler I talked to today was very nice & efficient and my provider added the ability to schedule regular mammograms via the online portal, so that is one barrier to care that was removed.

Giving myself a gold star for adulting becauseI finally got my follow-up mammogram scheduled after weeks of trying. Having a weird sleep schedule makes trying to schedule anything by telephone incredibly difficult & frustrating. Before today I called at least 3 times & the line was always busy.

Three thousand years ago, a Greek potter looked at a bowl and thought: ‘You know what this needs? A leg!’ Clay bowl with leg-shaped handle!🦵😆 Early Geometric period 850 BC. Altes Museum, Berlin 📷 by me #Archaeology
My photo shows an ancient Greek pottery bowl with a rounded, deep body, wide open mouth and flared rim. It has a large handle shaped like a human leg, extending from the left side of the bowl in my photo, bending at a right angle and ending in a flat foot. The bowl has a camel-coloured surface decorated with dark brown geometric patterns, which include zigzags and meander motifs arranged in horizontal bands around the body of the bowl and along the leg. From Attica, Early Geometric period, circa 850 BC. It sits on a light stone coloured surface in a display case at the Altes Museum in Berlin.

Was looking for something and came across an old screenshot of an article from my college newspaper. I'm quoted & was on the cusp of turning 20 the next month. And I was soooo earnest, lol. I actually thought that knowing about others' histories might make it less likely to see them as inferior.
A digital scan of the McGill Daily newspaper from September 23, 1991, featuring a lead article titled “Time to study African-Americans, say BSN” and a smaller article about the magazine Communiqu’elles closing.

French broom, Genista monspessulana, is a Class A Noxious Weed in Washington State, which looks a lot like Scotch broom. French broom flowers only grow at branch tips, the stems are usually more ridged, and the leaves are lightly hairy all over (instead of just around the edges).
