I hate talking about AI every day but I recognize the active danger it represents to nature and the human inspiration that has made my life worthwhile. I cannot overlook the end goal the obscenely wealthy have always had for this tech: to squeeze the rest of us even further out of a modest living.

It seems we need a reminder that the Luddites did not hate technology. The were, in fact, technology experts who objected to the dehumanization and abuse of workers by investors and factory owners through new technologies.

The milestone shows how quickly solar has moved from a small part of the grid to one of Europe’s most important energy sources. A powerful reminder: the future of energy is not far away. It is already rising with the sun.

👇🎯 The crisis was in 2000, when 5 Wizards In Robes decided not everyone's vote needed to be counted in a presidential election. It's continued in the last ten years, with unprecedented lawless authoritarianism. People now saying major institutional reforms will set off a crisis are in deep denial.

Warren: "It is still the case that the Trump admin cannot explain the reasons we entered this war, the goals we're trying to accomplish. The only part that seems clear is that while there is no money for 15m Americans who lost their healthcare, there's a billion a day to spent on bombing Iran."

The commitment to neutrality makes a lot of sense if your are in a system where the two parties are playing by a shared set of small L liberal rules, but we're simply not in that world at the moment. You cannot be neutral about the question of "should you be allowed to exist?"

He really is doing all of it.
He has made Judges dependent on his Will alone, for the tenure of their offices, and the amount and payment of their salaries.

He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance.

He has kept among us, in times of peace, Standing Armies without the Consent of our legislatures.

He has affected to render the Military independent of and superior to the Civil power.

He has combined with others to subject us to a jurisdiction foreign to our constitution, and unacknowledged by our laws; giving his Assent to their Acts of pretended Legislation:

For Quartering large bodies of armed troops among us:

For protecting them, by a mock Trial, from punishment for any Murders which they should commit on the Inhabitants of these States:

For cutting off our Trade with all parts of the world:

For imposing Taxes on us without our Consent:

For depriving us in many cases, of the benefits of Trial by Jury:

For transporting us beyond Seas to be tried for pretended offences:

For abolishing the free System of English Laws in a neighbouring Province, establishing therein an Arbitrary government, and enlarging its Boundaries so as to render it at once an example and fit instrument for introducing the same absolute rule into these Colonies:

For taking away our Charters, abolishing our most valuable Laws, and altering fundamentally the Forms of our Governments:

For suspending our own Legislatures, and declaring themselves invested with power to legislate for us in all cases whatsoever.

He has abdicated Government here, by declaring us out of his Protection and waging War against us.

He has plundered our seas, ravaged our Coasts, burnt our towns, and destroyed the lives of our people.

This should be the baseline energy from every Democrat. This should be the least angry they ever get to be. This should be the nicest language they ever use in reference to Republicans. If you can't do *at least* this, retire or get yourself retired.

Poem, "Where I Am (Not)"
(c) constance lee menefee 

And I thought,
it is such a perfect autumn
day
I should go somewhere
to enjoy it - more -
where the cloudless
blue sky
is bigger or
bluer -
I should go where
the trees tremble more
exactly in
the breeze
better - more quaking
and scintillating,
green-yellow blades twisting
each on a fibrous
cord
in the soft and silky gusts:
it is such a perfect autumn
day
to be where I am
unable to see
I can never be
where I am not.
