There's of course tons of fear mongering around trump in this entire video, but some fun quotes for y'all:

AIPAC raised over $5.2mil for Biden, um, they've only raised about $182,000 for Kamela directly.

She has expressed um empathy and support for the students on campuses um more so uh than Biden over the last 4 years

(insert weird tangent about kamela harris being a likable cat lady)

We all have uh a very clear and sober understanding of um the genocide and we are all against it right? And um and so um you know like first there's there's that and there's also um of course uh you know um uh, well we're we're trying to get everybody to vote for Kamela.

---In response to Sonya Massey murder:--- (which they incorrectly state happened in chicago)

Donald Trump has called for complete immunity of the police...Do you think that will be an issue that will mobilize voters on November?

Trump is clearly different than his opponents on this issue...

(Note that this post might be updated over time, do not cross-post it by copying the contents as it might become outdated)

There are already well-known platforms like marxists.org that have a comprehensive collection of the works of various Marxists, but they have yet to include prominent figures like Xi Jinping. As this is a community on China, this post will focus primarily on the works of Chinese Communists from official Chinese websites. The available Chinese resources are more comprehensive than English resources.

Imperial Olympic grandeur, but as vacant nostalgia. Israeli economy crashing. Trump backed in a corner. Sahel states uniting. Commercial real estate crisis reaching terminus. Ukraine about to cede. Polish EU infighting. Chinese Thorium reactor beginning construction. Record breaking global heat averages. Argentinian economy in free fall. Covid surging. Personal credit debt at record high. General strikes planned in various countries. Idk, a number of things. Just feels like there are a lot of fast moving trains at different angles that are crashing into one another, and those bundles are about to collectively crash into each other. Are we on the station, in the train, or at the cliff?

Als je een verdacht plekje op je huid hebt, wil je natuurlijk het liefst meteen weten of er iets aan de hand is. Dat kan vanaf volgend jaar in Maastricht: ze hebben daar een speciale scanner die de meest voorkomende vorm van huidkanker binnen 30 seconden herkent. Een vervelend biopt is dan niet meer nodig.

I was reading about Dungeon Meshi and Kuro, the "kobold".

Kobolds are usually depicted as canine humanoids in Japanese media compared to the more reptilian humanoids that kobolds are depicted as in western media[4] such as Dungeons and Dragons. The reason for this is credited as either a mistranslation of the first Dungeons and Dragons Monster Manual[5] or because of the lack of reference art in said Monster Manual, but a picture of a jackalwere being present on the opposite page[6], which was then used as reference art for the anime, The Record of the Lodoss War. That anime is credited for solidifying the trope of canine kobolds in Japanese media.

From https://delicious-in-dungeon.fandom.com/wiki/Kobolds#cite_note-5

And the supporting youtube video https://m.youtube.com/shorts/rUntTZ6spOc

Bonus fact: piglike orcs.

My self-discipline has been crap lately. My therapist thinks I have ADHD. I spend all my time in front of a screen. I don't exercise as much as I used to, I bounce in and out of the gym, and I haven't been out dancing in years because - while I'm not the most covid conscious - that many people in a confined space together gives me the heebie jeebies nowadays.

I need something to right the ship. I did Korean martial arts when I was a kid but I never practiced on my own and was too much of a goofball to take it seriously.

I need do something that requires enough concentration to get me out of my head and ideally involves some speed. Any thoughts on what's good? Things that worked for you?
