3 interesting findings:
1. 88% of college students say they pretended to be more progressive than they are to succeed academically or socially. 80% of students say they submitted class work misrepresenting their real views to conform to the progressive views of the professor.

2. Intelligence is inversely correlated with pathological attitudes toward celebrities. In other words, people with lower IQ scores believe that if they meet their favorite celebrities, these celebrities would enjoy speaking with them, and that they'd have deep hidden connections
3. Women who self-identify as “feminists” exhibit much stronger preferences for premium beauty products as compared with non-feminist women. The practical purpose and effect of these investments is to help elite women stand out relative to female rivals.
@agustinavcid @stephenehorn If what you claim is correct, immigration authorities will take note of it.
Sadly, such stories of individual situations never mention all relevant facts, so public hearts have hardened.
Media bear substantial responsibility for this phenomenon.
Sadly, I am not sympathetic.

@agustinavcid @stephenehorn Immigration is a civil violation - not criminal, as media constantly remind us - so our great nation’s high-powered, life-tenured, independent federal judiciary never issues a warrant.
You appear to insist on something that literally does not exist in immigration cases.

1/ A Russian army officer who briefed Vladimir Putin yesterday on the evils of Telegram has been exposed as being a premium Telegram user who doesn't even have an account on the state-approved messenger MAX. Russian warbloggers have erupted in outrage. ⬇️
2/ During the briefing, Lt Col Irina Godunova, a Russian army communications specialist, told Putin that Telegram was "considered a hostile means of communication" and that work was ongoing to "refine MAX" so that "everything will work well on the front line".
3/ Telegram plays a crucial part in frontline Russian military communications, as the thread below highlights. Russian warbloggers, many of them soldiers serving in Ukraine, have vociferously protested the Russian government's apparent plan to block it.
I've read a lot of batshit crazy court transcripts in my day but I just received the transcript of the March 3 contempt hearing before Biden appointee Judge Jeffrey Bryan in Minneapolis. Bryan is desperate to hold Trump officials in contempt for...wait for it...not "immediately" returning personal items to illegal immigrants detained by ICE but then (of course) ordered released by Minneapolis judges.
Before I get to the details and parts of the transcript--important to note that Judge Bryan is married to Liz Kramer. She is the solicitor general of the state of Minnesota, appointed to that role by MN AG Keith Ellison. She is a party in numerous lawsuits against the Trump administration including related to immigration/ICE, which should automatically disqualify her husband from handling lawsuits of a similar nature.
But alas...
Not only does Liz Kramer work for Ellison, MN Gov Tim Walz just appointed Kramer to a plum position.
NOTHING TO SEE HERE.

Judges are demanding that immigration/DOJ officials IMMEDIATELY return personal items such as "cash, cellphones, jewelry, driver’s licenses, work permits, passports, clothing, and other identification and immigration documents," according to Judge Bryan.
Now keep in mind--many J6ers (and I assume they will post here to back me up) are still awaiting rthe eturn of items stolen out of their homes, cars, garages, offices during FBI raids. In fact, a J6er texted me yesterday asking if I could help get his passport back.
But some judges, including Bryan, are not only unlawfully releasing illegals under claims they are entitled to bond hearings (this was overturned by 5th circuit recently, not binding on MN, but very likely the last word by SCOTUS) but setting unreasonable deadlines for their return to MN, release, status reports, and other demands including return of property.
Bryan kicked off the fireworks by noting the unusual nature of such a hearing. (Rosen and Fuller are prosecutors out of US Atty office in MN).

So much to cover here. US Atty Dan Rosen off the bat confronted Judge Bryan about "smearing" his in an opening comment and noted that Judge Bryan issued 52 ORDERS IN ONE DAY on February 20 related to (mostly I believe) the return of personal belongings.
Bryan quickly jumped the shark and accused Trump officials of "stealing" the items lol

☢️🚨 According to 2002 US military doctrine, the moment it is surprised by battlefield development that lead into an open-ended conflict, it will use a nuclear weapon.
The NNSA's Nuclear Posture Review (NPR) published back in January 2002 and leaked out to the media, discussed using low-yield and "clean" nuclear weapons in case of these development to take out hardened facilities, exactly the type used by Iran.
The media discussed this vigorously at the time but the discussion was immediately silenced in the lead up to the Iraq war, which was in fact won using these weapons in a single instance (the Baghdad airport battle).
This is information that is publicly available. The US recently declassified conversations between Bush, Rumsfeld and Putin which actually outlined exactly this discussion.
The shills on Twitter will ridicule this discussion because without this being kept secret, US actions will be seen as cowardly (which demoralises lower level troops), NPT dies further and the risk of a strategic nuclear exchange becomes more likely.
This is actually the main reason I bothered to discuss politics online at all. There is no avenue for this discussion anywhere else.
I'll provide links to available information in the reply. [not exhaustive though, you'll have to wait for PHYS004C and PHYS005/PHYS006].

Last year I focused on my Brazilian YouTube channel. There, I focus on game design and marketing for indies. The channel grew nice and healthy.
From the get go I knew I would need at least 100 videos

The growth was slow, it wasn't until the 67th video when I got 500 views on a week with a video.
By the 94th I was getting consistent 1k views. Three videos got viral (viral form me means at least 2x normal audience, these viral videos got 7k views and growing).

I'll launch a membership product with exclusive courses there.

I've mentioned the Iranian “Qaem-118” (Ghaem-118) / “Misagh-358” jet engine powered loitering surface to air loitering munition more than once.
They can be launched from pick-up trucks and are roughly in the same class as US Coyote II drone interceptors.

It uses a man-in-the-loop visual seeker.
These links can be jammed, given time and intelligence on the frequency used.
The “Misagh-358” air breathing, loitering, drone doesn't use a radar seeker to engage aircraft and being smaller, is harder to run down than a Shaheed.

In 2015, Twitter was "the free speech wing of the free speech party" according to CEO Jack Dorsey, even avoiding collaboration with the NSA (unlike Google, Facebook). By 2019 it was one of the most censored, monitored, and controlled social media networks in the world.
YouTube was the biggest and most monetizable platform, Reddit the most important discussion forum, Amazon needed for authors and websites, and Google Search the only way to surface niche info sources. Twitter mattered as the social network of the intelligentsia.
In 2015, Twitter under Twitter general counsel Vijaya Gadde began reinterpreting their existing rules much more broadly and banned hate speech, to "keep Twitter safe." Chuck Johnson was banned for tweeting that would "take out" (attack digitally, not murder) a BLM activist.
Here's the follow-up to @mtaibbi reporting on Prohibited Access by @LovelaceRyanD. I will definitely be digging into that userguide as I had tried to get details on how Sentinel worked for some time. 1/

I’ve seen adults freeze in moments that mattered.
Not because they were weak.
But because nobody ever gave them language for:
boundaries.
mistakes.
self-worth.
asking for help.
standing firm without guilt.
Here are 7 sentences worth repeating from now on 👇🏼

If you don’t teach this early, kids internalize cruelty as truth.

The matter of genocides is evident in Gaza, Eritrea, the Sahel, and with Uyghurs in China etc. and it is rooted to issues of resources extraction. The nations under the funding are using antiquated racist belief systems to justify it linked to British Empire laws of Oliver Cromwell.
@cnalive The deportation of the Acadians was a genocide that Canada still hasn’t fully acknowledged as one. cbc.ca/news/canada/ne…
The beneficiaries of the Acadia. Deportation destroyed Acadian graves to raise their own. The oldest tombstones around Halifax NS and Wolfsville has their names on it. They became the oligarchs of Canada and many of them match the names still tax evading in Luxembourg. globalnews.ca/news/10067000/…
