Kasparov: Putin is not just at war against Ukraine. He is at war against Europe, European institutions and the free world.

Dictators lie about what they have done, but very often they tell you exactly what they are going to do. Putin has for decades. 1/
Kasparov: Putin’s goal was, is and will be to restore the Russian Empire and push NATO back to 1997 borders.

Ukraine is the main target now, but not the ultimate goal. Europe still treats this as hypothetical. It is not a threat — it is a menace. 2/
Kasparov: Putin needs a success story: proving NATO is dead because Article 5 does not work.

Narva, Daugavpils, maybe Vilnius are ideal targets. It is not about occupying Europe; it is about showing NATO will debate, hesitate and fail to respond. 3/

Aberrant sexual orientation/gender identity groups have far higher rates of mental illness. This gap is present across all categories, to varying degrees, and is uniform in direction. Non-heterosexual women and transexuals have especially elevated rates: Image
Interestingly, the mental illness gaps between non-heterosexual and heterosexual women tend to be larger than those between non-heterosexual and heterosexual men. Within-sex rate differences: Image
Why this is the case is unclear, as both behavioural patterns seem equally unadaptive. Nonetheless, the trend is present on the genetic level as well; perhaps this is due to the psychopathology factor threshold for women to deviate from normalcy being higher? Image

En 1898 un granjero arrancaba las raíces de un árbol en Minnesota cuando descubrió una pesada losa de 90 kilos. Al limpiarla, descubrió un mensaje grabado que reescribía por completo la historia del descubrimiento de América. La Piedra Rúnica de Kensington. Tira del hilo 🧵👇🏽👇🏽👇🏽 Image
Olof Öhman era un inmigrante sueco que intentaba ganarse la vida limpiando un terreno para cultivar cerca del pequeño pueblo de Kensington. Mientras peleaba contra el tocón de un álamo rebelde, su hacha chocó contra un bloque de arenisca gris incrustado entre las raíces. Image
Al retirar la tierra de la superficie plana de la piedra, Öhman notó que estaba completamente cubierta de extraños símbolos geométricos. Sin saberlo, acababa de encontrar la polémica Piedra Rúnica de Kensington, un objeto que volvería loca a la comunidad científica. Image

I find that gen pop and policymakers find it very intuitive that superintelligence would be dangerous and hard to control.

The two main classes of people that disagree are 1) tech people and 2) a certain stripe of philosophy person.
To be fair, many of the tech people don't have the intuition that superintelligence control is easy because they use Claude Code a bunch, and so their extrapolation is "like Claude Code, but way way way smarter."
I think that's a pretty reasonable first extrapolation, and it's on us doomsayers to clearly explain why that visualization doesn't hold up, if it doesn't.

Trump’s slush fund is corrupt.  Let me count the ways: 🧵1/7
•Trump sued his own exec branch agency for leaking tax returns. If you buy the unitary executive theory, he is suing himself. 2/7
•Court jurisdiction requires genuine case or controversy with adversity between parties.
•When judge pointed out this flaw, Trump dismissed case, evading judicial review. 3/7

@riaan6974 @YVaw123 The Nation of Israel is zip to do with the state of Israel. 1948 was a Gog invasion imo. EU settler converts who invaded God's Jerusalem? 70 years later the apocalypse started with wildfires in 2018. 2019 the Pharmakeia of Covid-19? Followed by Bird Flu, Monkey pox, Hanta, Ebola? Image

l'idée selon laquelle l'impérialisme serait la "contradiction principale" empêche de concevoir l'impérialisme comme déversoir international des contradictions du capitalisme à l'échelle nationale, alors que c'est précisément cette articulation qui doit être ciblée politiquement
subordonner le national à l'international de manière absolue ne permet pas de comprendre leur articulation, puisque ce sont deux pas deux échelles sans rapports mais deux niveaux d'une même totalité capitaliste dont il faut comprendre de manière fine l'articulation
partant d'une telle analyse complète de l'impérialisme, plusieurs stratégies internationalistes peuvent être envisagées (en gros l'internationalisme ML vs. l'internationalisme trotskiste "par en-bas") et débattues, mais il faut être au clair sur ce qu'est l'impérialisme

🚨 BREAKING: Hasan Piker addressed the reported Treasury investigation on his livestream, and even he admits the news is “not great.”

“I’m not gonna lie to you guys. It’s not great. The news is not great, OK? I mean, it’s bullshit, but still not great that they’re after your boy. They’re up my ass.”

He then joked with viewers chanting “free me,” responding:

“Free me, free me. I can’t believe I’m saying that.”

For all the bravado, Hasan clearly understands this is serious.
Hasan Piker says he found out about the reported federal subpoena from a Fox News producer, not from the government.

According to Hasan, he got a voicemail saying he had been subpoenaed and asking for comment. Before he could respond, the article was already on the timeline.

“I got a text message, or rather a voicemail, from a Fox News producer saying that I had been subpoenaed by the federal government.”

“Before I could even respond to the journalist, an article materialized on the timeline.”“Let’s just say that kind of fucked my whole night up.”

The funniest part is that even after learning he was reportedly in federal subpoena territory, Hasan says he still made time for “a little tub sesh.”
Hasan calls the scrutiny “pure evil,” then casually acknowledges his photo with Code Pink co-founder Jodie Evans, who is also reportedly under investigation.

“This is Jodie Evans, who I took a photo with. They love this photo for some reason. I don’t know why. She’s one of the co-founders of Code Pink. She’s wonderful.”

He also mocks the DSA connection.

“The DSA does not promote me as a headline member. But, you know, fuck it. We ball.”

Hasan has gone back and forth on DSA, at times distancing himself as more of a fan than a member, while also embracing the brand, wearing the merch, and promoting the broader ecosystem.

So I understand why Fox frames him as DSA-adjacent, and I also understand why Hasan wants to push back on being described as a “headline member.”

But the connection is not imaginary. DSA’s own NPC has credited Hasan with helping drive merchandise sales, which tells you they see his platform as valuable, whether or not he wants the formal label.

Per una volta cerchiamo di spezzare il guinzaglio deresponsabilizzante e infantile in cui mette il collo chi, con cipiglio, sussiego e strafottenza, accusa dei problemi creati dal PD coloro che provano a risolverli: piantiamola di accusarli di non fare abbastanza, di dire che...
...sono eguali ad altri, di minacciare di non votare più o di rifugiarci nel voto di protesta dato alle controfigure dure e pure dei beccai rossi, create da chi detiene l'insindacabile potere di creare mentalità e forgiare opinioni accettabili. Vogliamo farla realmente finita...
...con lo stato deplorevole in cui ci siamo ridotti? Tracciamo una croce sul simbolo della @LegaSalvini, ricordando che tutti i mali che ci sono stati rappresentati da coloro che ce lo sconsigliano si sono già verificati, in forme perfino peggiori di quelle partorite dalla...

Hoy cumple 60 años Eric Cantona. Genio, provocador, líder y símbolo absoluto de una época. Del caos en Francia a convertirse en “The King” de Old Trafford: la historia de un futbolista irrepetible que cambió para siempre al Manchester United y a la Premier League. 👑🧵 Image
Eric Daniel Pierre Cantona nació el 24 de mayo de 1966 en Marsella. Hijo de una familia de origen sardocatalán marcada por el exilio, el antifascismo y la guerra. La política y la resistencia formaron parte de su historia familiar mucho antes que el fútbol. Image
Su abuelo materno, Pere Raurich, peleó del lado republicano durante la Guerra Civil Española. Tras ser herido, cruzó los Pirineos junto a su esposa escapando del franquismo y terminó internado en un campo de concentración francés durante casi dos años. Image

If you're new to my work, START HERE:

These are ten first principles that the average person can implement to improve their health

THREAD // Image
1. Magnesium saturation

Magnesium should be dosed daily using well-absorbed forms until a surplus is achieved for your individual biology

Magnesium glycinate, magnesium taurate, and magnesium malate are my favorite oral forms, while magnesium chloride or epsom salt (mag sulfate) can be used topically

Doses should be spread out throughout the day to avoid a laxative effect, higher doses can be taken before bed (breakfast/lunch/dinner is a good schedule to start)

Start with a dose of 100-200mg elemental magnesium and work up from there

You can also make topical magnesium spray with 1/4-1/2 cup of magnesium chloride added to 1 cup of water in a glass spray bottle

1-5+lbs of magnesium can be added to a bath or foot soak tray as well
2. Electromagnetic nutrition

Light is a nutrient that your body requires for optimal metabolism

Infrared light should absorbed daily via sunlight and optionally infrared light therapy as well

Sunlight exposure for 30 minutes to several hours both in the morning and the evening is ideal

Bright light exposure shortly after waking entrains the circadian rhythm and supports melatonin production at night

UV light is required for synthesis of vitamin D and its analogs, fair skinned people need at least 15 minutes of midday UV-rich sunlight daily, while dark skinned people need 30+ minutes

Use an app like D-Minder for more precise estimates of UV requirements based on time and location

Cierto la Fiscalía no es autonoma se me barrio. Eso no quita el fondo de mi análisis. sobre todo la forma de como se elige al Fiscal General que en la práctica le da cierta autonomía va mini🧵

El Fiscal lo propone el titular del Ejecutivo y lo ratifica el Congreso local.
El Congreso del Estado debe aprobarlo con mayoría calificada (dos terceras partes de los diputados presentes).

¿Qué pasa si el Congreso rechaza la propuesta?

La gobernadora debe enviar una nueva terna o propuesta en un plazo de 15 días hábiles.
Si nuevamente no se alcanza la mayoría calificada (2/3), se repite el proceso.

No hay plazo fijo para que la gobernadora envíe la primera propuesta (puede haber interinatos prolongados).

Por ello, con la participación del Congreso, se puede hablar de cierta autonomía.

¿Saben ustedes q en tiempos de la conquista de México, tres españoles escalaron un volcán de 5.500 M. de altura, una vez en la cumbre uno de ellos bajó al cráter atado por los pies y extrajo azufre para poder fabricar pólvora? Atendía por el nombre de Francisco de Montaño (Sigue) Image
Francisco Montaño y sus dos compañeros de escalada Larios y Mesa, subieron al cráter del volcán Popocatépetl por orden del gran Hernán Cortés en busca de azufre. Los españoles que andaban por aquellos lares luchando contra la tiranía azteca andaban escasos de pólvora. Image
Para llegar a la cumbre no pasaron por una tienda de material de escalada, su hazaña ocurrió en el siglo XVI. Utilizaron unos simples clavos y unas pequeñas cuerdas y vencieron al frío con cotas y mantas. Montaño bajó al cráter atado por los pies y logró un costal de azufre. Image

The maroon beret is a crown of thorns worn like royal silk. It arrives as a silent thunder, earned by walking through fire barefoot and alone, together. It is not red, not burgundy, but maroon — the specific, earned shade of thunder dressed in velvet.2/8 Image

Como un ex-masturbador, te diré la verdad brutal que la mayoría de los coaches no te contarán.

Dejar la masturbación sigue 7 etapas,

La mayoría de los hombres nunca pasan de la etapa 3,

Etapa 1: La etapa de la Decisión....... Image
Image
Finalmente tocas fondo y dices “basta ya”. La motivación está por las nubes. Borras cada app, bloqueas sitios web y te dices a ti mismo que esta vez es diferente. Te sientes poderoso y optimista.

Pero esta etapa es peligrosa porque todo es emoción. El primer impulso fuerte suele llegar en menos de 48 horas y te deja en shock. La mayoría de los hombres recaen aquí porque solo tienen motivación, no sistemas ni reglas. Aquí es donde debes configurar tu entorno de inmediato.
Etapa 2: La Línea Plana (Día 4–21)

Esta es la etapa que destruye al 90% de los hombres. Tu energía se desploma con fuerza. Cero motivación. Niebla mental, depresión y emociones planas te golpean. La erección matutina desaparece. Te sientes peor que cuando te masturbabas a diario.

Tu cerebro está montando una rabieta completa: perdió su fuente fácil de dopamina. Me sentí como un zombi durante casi dos semanas. Esto es completamente normal.

Tus receptores se están reiniciando. Supéralo. Duerme más, levanta pesas y confía en el proceso. La línea plana siempre termina.

Over a million acres of pristine wilderness lakes in Minnesota.

The most visited canoe country in America.

Generations of families have paddled it, fished it, camped it.

The Senate just sold it out outright.

They called it "America First."

Then handed it to a Chilean billionaire — so his company can ship the copper to China.

The Senate voted 50-49 to gut 20 years of Boundary Waters mining protections.

Here's the deal they made.

A Chilean billionaire's company digs the mine.

America can't smelt the copper — we don't have the capacity.

So the ore ships to China.

China processes it.

Sells it on the world market.

Chile keeps the profits.

Minnesotans don't even get the jobs.

Minnesota keeps the pollution.

And Americans get to buy it back from China at full market price.

This same company has a documented history at their Chilean mines: pipeline spills, regulatory fines, and locals fighting back for years.

They paid a former Trump Interior Secretary $380K.

The protection died by one vote.

Here's exactly how it happened — and who made it happen.

Who do YOU think this mine actually serves?

#DemsUnitedA canoe moves through the calm waters of Boundary Waters Lake in Minnesota, surrounded by dense evergreen forest beneath a bright blue sky reflected like a mirror across the pristine wilderness waterway.
A former Trump Interior Secretary forms a lobbying firm.

A Chilean mining giant pays it $380K.

Republican senators who were leaning against the mine suddenly flip.

The White House applies pressure behind closed doors.

And a 20-year wilderness protection dies by one vote.

Outdoor Life pulled back the curtain on every backroom deal, every vote, and every senator who caved.

This is the full breakdown.

outdoorlife.com/conservation/b…Sunset over the Boundary Waters in Minnesota, with calm mirror-like water reflecting pink and orange evening clouds beneath a dark pine forest horizon.
Earthjustice is calling this move "unprecedented and legally questionable."

The Congressional Review Act was weaponized in a way it has never been used before — to erase a 20-year mining ban protecting 225,000 acres of public watershed in one backdoor vote.

What does this mean legally?

And what's the fight that comes next?

🔍Este capítulo contiene información muy valiosa sobre la política fiscal de las CCAA, que se suelen olvidar o apenas se conocen.

En este hilo, volcaré algunas de ellas🧵👇
▶️En los últimos 35 años, las CCAA han conseguido superávit primario en 9. Las CCLL solo han presentado déficit primario en 6 años.

▶️La deuda pública autonómica, estabilizada en los últimos 10 años con los mecanismos "extraordinarios" tipo FLA. Image
▶️Las CCAA son líderes absolutas en gasto en educación y sanidad.

▶️Como son servicios públicos muy intensivos en trabajo, gran parte de su presupuesto se destina a salarios.

▶️Reducido % de gasto en capital (inversión pública) en dichas áreas. Image
