Was under the mistaken impression that Enterprise was not a good Trek show. I keep thinking about the 9/11 episode and how Starfleet partners with special forces to launch a costly and doomed incursion into hostile space for something that was ultimately based on a lie and solved through diplomacy.

In Idiocracy, the degradation of all aspects of society being caused by too many poor people fucking, rather than a handful of rich and greedy failsons, really undercuts any prescient points the movie was trying to make for me. Also, there are lots of f-slurs.

Israel just hit the largest Palestinian refugee camp in Lebanon, Ain al Hilweh, with missiles. It’s a dense camp with the presence of many Palestinian factions but also many civilians.

Change as Ridgedale Library Removes Anti-Israel Display
A Facebook post expressing concern over an
"International Solidarity with the Palestinian People" book display at the Hennepin County Library's Ridgedale branch sparked swift community response this week, resulting in the display's removal just a few days later.
The original post, shared by a local Jewish community member, read in part: "I think most of us would consider the library a safe space and that's why I feel compelled to share the current display at the Ridgedale library.The original post, shared by a local Jewish community member, read in part: "I think most of us would consider the library a safe space and that's why I feel compelled to share the current display at the Ridgedale library. It's the first thing you see when you walk in celebrating
'international solidarity with Palestinian people.
The post quickly circulated through local social media groups, prompting a wave of reactions and concerns from Jewish community members about the content, placement and titles in the books on the display.
Comments in those groups included:
• "It's not that they made this display, it's which books they chose."
• "This display could make most Jews who walk in, right back out."
• "The thing that bugs me is they don't do this on the anniversary of the Holocaust, or on October 7th. I feel like we as a community wouldn't be as upset if they did."
• "I am so disgusted by our neighborhood library. It is sad, hurtful and disappointing.
When confronting the staff last week the librarians were clueless and didn't know what half the books meant and how they put our Jewish lives in danger. That was very concerning to me."
• "It's that exact utter lack of knowledge

The Team at A Better DFL is releasing the following statement on the disastrous listening session from Thursday. ABetterDFL.org. We need to hold the DFL to a higher standard than "at least we're not republicans."
On Thursday, November 13th, State DFL Chair Richard Carlbom attended a listening session with people from Minneapolis who have worked with the DFL, volunteered their time and effort, and worked hard to elect Democrats up and down the ballot.

The vast majority of the people who spoke were upset with the DFL. They cited concerns with being labeled "divisive" for asking for basic accommodations from DFL members, concerns with ongoing bullying, antisemitism, transphobia, and racism from DFL state committee members, and concerns about what the State DFL is doing to restore trust in party systems after breaking our trust.

Richard's responses were inadequate. He repeatedly deflected, went on tangents about employing "content creators" and did not apologize or acknowledge harm done. When pressed about a member who is currently on trial for vehicular manslaughter, he appealed to "due process," as though he has no power to ask a person to take a leave of absence while they are literally standing trial.

The person in question, by the way, is still serving actively on both the Constitution, Bylaws, and Rules Committee and the Code of Conduct Committee, actively reviewing complaints about other DFL members.

That's why we here at A Better DFL are organizing. We're fed up, and we're tired of being told to simmer down and set aside problems while corruption runs rampant at the highest level. The DFL is accountable to us, its members, and we are holding them to a higher standard than just "not being Republicans."

A tweet from Kamala Harris:

I am saddened to learn of the passing of former
Vice President Dick Cheney.

Vice President Cheney was a devoted public servant, from the halls of Congress to many positions of leadership in multiple presidential administrations. His passing marks the loss of a figure who, with a strong sense of dedication, gave so much of his life to the country he loved.

Doug and I are keeping Lynne, their daughters Liz and Mary, and the entire Cheney family in our thoughts during this difficult time.
