If you read anything today about the #TumblerRidge shooting, please let it be this. From the mother of a child fighting for her life in BC Children's Hospital:
“Edmonds says she was friends with Strang and used to babysit the shooter — 18-year-old Jesse Van Rootselaar — as a child.
Edmonds told CBC News she weeps for all the people affected by the tragedy that unfolded in Tumbler Ridge, including Strang.
Edmonds says she watched the single mother, who she said worked long shifts at a nearby mine, fight to help her child.
Edmonds says at one point, Van Rootselaar tried to light a mattress on fire "and burn the house down." She said the teen had been hospitalized several times with mental health issues.
"People are trying to politicize what this is about," Edmonds said "It's not about guns. It's not about [being trans] ... It's about mental health. It's about a lack of resources."
"[Strang] really — I truly believe that in her heart — did everything she could to try to help … I know that she struggled."

The result of a consistent and total substitution of lies for factual truth is not that the lie will now be accepted as truth and truth be defamed as a lie, but that the sense by which we take our bearings in the real world—and the category of truth versus falsehood is among the mental means to this end—is being destroyed.Truth and Politics, Hannah Arendt
I'm at a celebration of #MLK at the University of Houston.
One of the panelists (sorry, I had to sit in the back, so I don't know who) talked about #risk.
This is in relation to the #redemption that comes from #suffering.
There is #truth in this. I'm old. But the three times I felt something almost #holy was when I risked.
The first time. . .
After my sister changed her major to Women's Studies, she volunteered to be #security at the local #Pride #Parade. I did the training with her. Basically, we were part of a wall of bodies between the parade and the crowd. At one point, there was.a woman yelling and screaming about the Bible, and as I stood in front of her, I didn't even hear her. I felt this deep abiding #calm. I'm not a #believer, but if I were, I would describe it as some kind of divine Presence.
The second time. . .
A coworker was going to the drugstore down the street to get baseball cards, and while I walked down with him, I mentioned that I was treated better at work than at home. He asked me, "What are you going to do about it?" The same calm came to me as I realized I could leave. It was so powerful I went back to work and told my boss that I was feeling weird and I thought I needed to go home. Which I did. I moved in with my sister until I found an apartment.
The third time. . .
I had been working for about thre months when the staffing agency that all of the staff was contracted through wac bought by a bigger agency that mostly staffed the #defense #industry. Instead of #HR, they sent #attorneys. They pulled some shenanigans, but my coworkers in California didn't have to sign #nonCompete #agreements. So they allowed the rest of us to opt out. They even allowed us to jump to a different staffing agency that had profit-sharing. Except the #BigTech we worked for was slow-walkimg the paperwork for the four who were trying to do it. I very carefully set up my remaining PTO and was in another state when my final dey rolled around. Unlike the other four, my role was support. They could survive without me until the paperwork was ready. And, when my boss called and asked if I was not going to work, I felt that calm when I said that I wasn't going to work if I wasn't going to be paid.
In two weeks, all of our paperwork went through, so we all had the same hire date.
Liz Dye reports on what she experienced at Trump's rally yesterday in Clive, Iowa:
"When everything is always a lie, the truth eventually escapes. What does it do out there in the open?
When I gently bring up Minneapolis and what’s happening there to the people around me, the grandmother two chairs down frowns and says she doesn’t believe most of what the media reports."

"It’s hard to know the truth when everyone is so biased [the grandmother says]. The college student near me, who spends most of his time in the events center — and, based on the evidence, a lot of his other time as well, chewing the skin off his fingers — tells me, 'People need to comply with the police.'
That’s it. The subject is changed."

"The Department of Homeland Security is now walking back a Saturday statement that described Pretti as having 'violently resisted' Customs and Border Protection agents and suggested he intended to 'massacre law enforcement.' A DHS spokesperson told NBC News that the initial account was based on chaotic and incomplete reports from CBP personnel on the scene."

"Videos are the start. They show what happened but not why. We still need context, analysis, and investigation to understand the whole story. And that is the last thing Trump and his enforcers want. They know people will recognize: a) that they lied about what happened, b) what happened was illegal, and c) those responsible will likely not be held accountable."
"The internet and social media are often maligned for spreading disinformation, negatively impacting mental health, and perpetuating screen addiction and cyberbullying. Amid all the issues with pervasive distraction, in the time of Trump, the technology that lives in our pockets has become one of the most useful tools to combat the administration’s stranglehold on the 'truth.'”
~ Dan Rather
"Illinois Governor JB Pritzker instructed everyone to 'video everything.' Fellow governor Tim Walz of Minnesota echoed this advice.
'Carry your phone with you at all times. And if you see ICE in your neighborhood, take out that phone and hit record. Help us create a database of the atrocities against Minnesotans — not just to establish a record for posterity, but to bank evidence for future prosecution,' he said last week."
There's really only ONE thing we can rely on in this world anymore.
#Cops Lie.
Every lawyer in the U.S. right now should be arguing "Giglio" evidence against #DHS #BorderPatrol and #ICE.
In Giglio vs. United states (1972), the prosecution failed to disclose that it promised a key witness immunity from prosecution in exchange for testimony against Giglio.
#SCOTUS ruled evidence of the agreement was relevant to the witness’ credibility. In a nutshell, if the witnesses can't be believed, their testimony is worthless.
NOBODY in ICE DHS or Border Patrol can be trusted to tell the #truth and every juror knows it today!

RE: https://mastodon.social/@WarnerCrocker/115940829672022950
YES. Read Warner's post. This is something I've also been writing about for a very long time. Until we fully reckon with the historical foundations of the United States we will not be free. Our nation is still bound to #genocide, land theft, #settlercolonialism, slavery and violent international interventions. We cannot pretend otherwise. We cannot ignore the fundamental truths of this nation.
If we want #freedom and #justice, we must start with the #truth.

Once #Trump won election again in 2024, despite his role in encouraging the “riot” & his many distortions about it, it emboldened him to govern in defiance of the #Constitution, without regard for the #truth & with #malice toward those who stand up to his abuses.
Tragically, America is still living in a political era that began on #Jan6, 2021. Recognizing as much is necessary to bring this era to an end before it has many more anniversaries.
It is going to be a significant change in society as we move from assuming that what we see in photos and video to be authentic and truthful to assuming photos and video are AI fabrications.

'How reporting facts can now land you in jail for 14 years as a terrorist
Starmer's government has set the most dangerous of precedents: it can now outlaw any political group it chooses as a terrorist organisation – and thereby make it impossible to defend it'

1. SirDice gave a reason – "… it was likely trashed because people kept making it political."
2. vermaden acknowledged the reason
3. vermaden's later statement – "without warning or reason" – has been seen by at least twenty thousand people.
@distrowatch used the phrase "false information".
This is not rocket science.
@vermaden @XLibreDev This is not sad, it is a reasonable response to the spam. And there is a reason, you are just ignoring it. This post does nothing but push false information. Shame on you.
All are called to be #spiritualwarriors on behalf of #justice, #compassion, and #truth-seeking at critical historical periods like our own. All spiritual traditions invoke that #archetype. It is a time for #deepecumenism like no other. https://bit.ly/4kxtIcG

I don’t read the news, but today I did, and it really got me thinking.
Internet culture has reshaped how we relate to knowledge. Alignment now seems to matter more than accuracy, and online, there is always some place, or some person, willing to offer alignment.

A black and white photograph of a small island of tall trees standing in the middle of a calm loch, partially veiled by mist. The water is smooth and reflective, mirroring the dark silhouettes of the trees. Pale hills fade into the fog in the background, and a few birds skim low over the water to the right, adding a sense of quiet movement to the still scene.
"Authoritarians believe there is no difference between truth and power, because if the former is allowed to operate separate from the latter, then it might be the case that ordinary people may develop some capacity for moral discernment."

I hope #PatentTrolls like #Rothschild get their asses handed to court.
Espechally when the #PatentTroll's #lawyers farted out "#AIslop" (don't call it a #hallucination, #Mansplainers don't hallucinate either, they know it's wrong and unlike any "#AI" they do have sentience!) in their filings.
The fact that #Valve settled in the past is only due to the #SueHappy nature of #US #courts, where filing nefariously isn't punished and where #settlements are cheaper than fighting for the #truth, with #ShellCompanies being weaponized as disposable shields from harm!
I'm just glad such bs patents are null and void in #Germany because they are neither "new" nor "an actual invention that solves a technical problem"...

A THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
Tell all the Truth but tell it slant-- / ... The Truth must dazzle gradually / Or every man be blind. -Emily Dickinson, poet (10 Dec 1830-1886)
Facing continual news of the collapse of planetary systems & #democracy, w/ billionaires controlling the #media, we need #innerstrength & #commitment to put the #commongood, #community, #conscience, #truth & #justice, & the #health of #MotherEarth & future generations 1st. https://bit.ly/3Tz8mQW
Margaret Sullivan retains an old-fashioned belief in the possibility that traditional media can right themselves and return to their mission of speaking truth even when it''s inconvenient and defending equality and justice for all.
I no longer have that faith, but applaud her for holding onto it. The infuriating example she gives of how the New York Times continues betraying that mission right up to yesterday —
https://margaretsullivan.substack.com/p/trust-in-mainstream-media-is-at-rock
the Times printed a front-page above-the-fold headline and article trolling Biden on the immigration issue. Biden. Not Trump. When Trump is in the White House and Biden is long gone.
The New York Times is not about to redeem itself anytime soon, and many of us will keep congratulating ourselves for turning our back on that shameful media outlet and seeking good information and reporting elsewhere.

I really enjoy this channel. This particular episode accurately outlines how narcissism has become the defining artistic MO of our time (in literature, writing, reading, fan culture, etc...)
