#ADD and #ADHD aren't disorders, they're differences in cognition. They are fierce strengths that society has decided aren't convenient for authoritarian rule. Nice TedX talk from @StephenTonti

Late last month Oklahoma City Police slammed a 70-year-old Mr. Vu, who is 5 feet 3 inches tall and weighs just 115 pounds to the pavement head first, leaving him with a fractured skull.
Let me guess, the cop feared for his life?

It is sometimes unbelievable how frequently people explicitly misrepresent the theory of Marx in order to discredit what he said. I know the original texts are dense and hard to read, but like, don't just make stuff up.
I'm not describing price. The thing that is price is what Marx called exchange value. That's not it.
The subjective value is whatever it is worth to any individual consumer at any moment in time. The closest thing to that is what Marx called use value, but it still isn't the same since economics realized things like diminishing marginal utility etc.
If you'd like to argue that he is wrong, don't try to do so by changing the meaning of terms he assigned to concepts. The fact that you believe value has a different meaning does not mean that what Marx asserts about the thing he is defining value as is wrong.
I just rewatched all of Andor and Rogue One over the past couple of days. I knew I loved these works when I first saw them, but after a couple years worth of theory and history study, omg they just get better. I really, really hope season 2 of Andor does not completely collapse.
ngl, I saw the name of the person @tmorello was quote tweeting and thought it was that ACP loser and got real upset for a sec. Then after rereading it, questioning my eyes I realized its another person with a deceptively similar name, and the take that they gave is super correct.

From a comrade that asked me to share:
“My home was raided by Fairfax SWAT on Wednesday morning. Since then I've watched a comrade drug out into the street naked and then beaten in front of me. I have been arrested twice, and spent 19hrs cumulatively in two different jails.
The warrant they were serving was for a vandalism charge in Loudoun but now I have charges in three counties. They charged me with things that weren't on the warrant and now I have 3 felonies in fairfax. When I was arrested again in Alexandria, they called in the bomb squad and shut down king st and evacuated everyone while they x-rayed my car. I was charged with possessing a smoke grenade (the official charge is having a firework in Alexandria, which violates the fire code).
The raid on my home involved them driving a tank onto my lawn, 30+ call of duty cosplayers, and an attack dog. they gave my comrade a contusion on her chest wall and tortured her with triple cuffs so tight they cut off circulation to her hands they left scratches and the officer had to cut her skin to get them off.
The violence, including sexual violence, was supposedly justified because the graffiti case had pro-palestine messaging. The cops commented on my political tattoos when I was being held in my yard as well. They made sure to turn the pride flag upside down when they searched also. I believe this is political persecution and I'd like as many people as possible to know what happened.”
OMG this song hits so hard if you look at the lyrics: open.spotify.com/track/6Nev1…
After you listen, go read Howard Zinn's "People's History of the United States" and Gerald Horne's "Counter Revolution of 1776"

This has all the energy of a deranged person choking back rage "Say it one more time..." with a look of murder on their face and you just smile, look them in the eye, and whisper..."WordPress" 😂 #WordPress
If you want to get off #WordPress and are looking for a good alternative, I'd love to help introduce you to @drupal, there is a very, very solid migration pipeline to Drupal 10, and the flexibility of what you can do with Drupal is unparalleled.
