1. A text made of headlines:

Trump suggests delaying presidential election as dire economic data released
Donald Trump suggests delay to 2020 US presidential election
Trump Floats Whether to ‘Delay the Election,’ Something He Cannot Legally Do
No, Trump can’t delay the election
2. (this has been going on for over a month, let's face it)

Trump suggests delaying presidential election as dire economic data released

3. "Floating the idea" (and isn't that how he keeps us entertained while real stuff is going on?)

Trump Floats Delaying The Election. It Would Require A Change In Law

4. So now it's for real: not floating anymore...

Donald Trump suggests delay to 2020 US presidential election

bbc.com/news/world-us-…
5. O-oh... it's illegal. But does the guy who claims he can rape and murder people with impunity care? I mean: do the puppet masters care?

2020 Election Live Updates: Trump Floats Whether to ‘Delay the Election,’ Something He Cannot Legally Do

6. Too many "nopes". Some of them represent forces as powerful as or even more powerful than the puppet masters (BTW, it's time we called the legal and illegal Cartels by name)

No, Trump can’t delay the election

7. the donald is the charismatic figure with visual and verbal identification with the American fascist base: he's embarrassingly tacky, uneducated and pretty stupid, like them. They love him. The puppet masters have to do something.

trump decides nothing. He is just a thing.

1. It's baffling how the RW whines about being victimized by the left. Last week we had the bitter tears of @bariweiss ' self-expulsion (?). No matter how you look at it, none of them have any reason to complain.
2. Before that we had the "perfomatics" like @jordanbpeterson and @CHSommers : they would accept invitations to speak at places where the local students promised to meet their reactionary speech with protest.
3. Instead of acting like professors (and I am one so I know), reaching out to the students and trying to negotiate a productive conversation, they decided to confront the students. Meanwhile, they whined on the Internet about how oppressed they were by the left.

1. The American necropolitical system and the death of a thousand cuts.

I am halfway through writing a book on #suicide and training focused on understanding suicide.

2. The medicalized version of #suicide, according to which suicide is a manifestation of mental illness and, therefore, tautologically, suicides are predominantly caused by mental illness is logically and empirically false and I am providing evidence for my argument.
3. The current increase in self-destructive deaths which include deaths that don't end up as suicides in public statistics is a result of the intensification of American #necropolitics.

1. Your daily reminder that the @AARP became just another predatory organization whose chief purpose is to hard-sell their own services and products. By the way, they are inferior to the ones you have (insurance, financial products, etc).

2. They are displayed at the @OESCnews as a "partner office". If there is any payment or tax benefit they get from the government for that, wake up and take it away from @AARP .

3. I wrote to them today and got replies from a Donna and a Maribel, from the ironically named "Consumer Care" department. There are only two options: either they don't read and just copy and past some reply or they are psychopaths.
