Sad, but true.

Not Just Bikes informed many about city planning.

I think it is the future of media and content sharing for those that can afford it or know how to use it.

It is just another tool being used to create the content you desire.

Improvements are needed, but I have seen really well-done ones where a general introductory topic is discussed.

Edit: added Syria, so as to be more detailed on topic being discussed

George Galloway is currently talking about [Syria], live.

Prof. Mohammad Marandi is about to join him.

TIL entertainment personality wrestler continues his persona that he is famous for and goes viral for controversial commentary again while advertising his new product.

Hogan, an ardent Donald Trump supporter, made the comments on Monday night at the Thirsty Cowboy bar in Medina, Ohio, while promoting his new beer, TMZ reports.

“Want me to body-slam somebody? You want me to body-slam Kamala Harris?” he asked the roaring crowd, as seen in a video obtained by TMZ. “I said, ‘Do you want me to body-slam Kamala Harris?’”

“You want me to drop a leg on Kamala?” he asked.

“Is Kamala a chameleon? Is she Indian?” he asked.

“I am going to get heat for that one, brother. That was not me. That was the beers talking,” he claimed to the crowd.

In 2015, Hogan was abruptly fired from World Wrestling Entertainment after tapes surfaced of him repeatedly using a racial slur in 2007. Hogan eventually apologized and was reinstated into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2018, BBC News reports.^[1]

IMO: tribal thinking.

It comes down to “they do not think like I want them to or they won’t agree with me, so I will downvote posts.”

Controversial topics are even more downvoting just to downvote.

The self-built echo chambers are already constructed; self-censorship and anything outside of their views and sources are dismissed, labeled, and smeared so as to not think about the information being shared.

It happens everywhere; the status quo is welcomed, while anything outside of it will seem controversial or extreme.

Edit3: improved wording a bit, and added info below; forgot to add this edit

Legalize and regulate.

I share this view with other issues our society faces as well.

Edit: forgot why.

Why:

Sex work as well as drugs will never be outlawed or enforced fully; looking at drugs, it is used as an excuse to jail the working class for slave labor as well as other things when you follow the money.^[1]

Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.^[2]

Oh, TIL.

Thanks for letting us know!

Great points and awesome of you to bring it up!

Don’t forget:

2. Voyager

Edit2: added a reply to question; fomat to seperate quotes

“A man chooses. A slave obeys.”

“We all make choices, but in the end… our choices make us.”

Quotes are by Andrew Ryan.

Andrew Ryan is a fictional character in the BioShock video game series developed by Irrational Games. He serves as the secondary antagonist in BioShock, and also appears in its follow-ups BioShock 2 and BioShock Infinite: Burial at Sea.

I noticed the same thing; I thought it was on my end, hahaha.

My YouTube link description shows up in Russian; it seems their server that gets the data for links has changed.

A guess: VPNs cause a similar thing to search engine results, where whatever language is the majority shows up in your search results.

YouTube - youtu.be - Смотрите любимые видео, слушайте любимые песни, загружайте собственные ролики и делитесь ими с друзьями, близкими и целым миром.

Translation:

Watch your favorite videos, listen to your favorite songs, upload your own videos, and share them with friends, family, and the world.

IMHO: Always help out the working-class people if you can; the homeless and’middle class’ are the working-class.

You don’t have to let them in your home or do too much, but I would offer them a box with food, plenty of water, and a basic care package.

We all need to make time to join in helping our local communities. 1 hour a year is much more helpful than 0 hours a year.

Mantra:

“We should focus our actions, time, and resources on Direct Action, Mutual Aid, and Community Outreach… No War but Class War!”

Government censorship will cause TikTok’s services in the US to shut down, which will result in most users moving to another social media platform.

I think most people already use multiple platforms, so the only difference will be the time they put into their new main social media.

Edit: some improvements on grammar and phrasing

The working class must come together; we must not let the owner class and their ilk keep dividing us.

No war, but class war!

Keep fighting the good fight, OP!

Do you have kids or pets that like to play with the toilet paper roll?

If yes, then Under.

If no, then Over.

1. [16:08] - Introduction and interview with Jaz Brisack and Casey Moore, organizers of Starbucks stores and of Inside Organizer School (IOS)

In this week’s Economic Update, Professor Richard Wolff comments on US megabanks once again taking new off-the-books risks, Elon Musk endorsing right-wing undemocratic census proposals and Fossil Fuel industry executives bribe Trump with campaign donations. In addition, we highlight the many US and global labor unions and workers who have joined the movement in supporting of ending the Israeli military actions in Gaza.

Finally, we Interview with Jaz Brisack and Casey Moore, organizers of Starbucks stores and of Inside Organizer School (IOS), a new organization that trains workers how to unionize their workplaces.

The Inside Organizer School (IOS) is a unique program aimed at making inside organizers as effective as possible in motivating and mobilizing their co- workers. The IOS branches off from traditional union organizer training which addresses staff development, focusing its curriculum instead on developing inside organizers who organize from within the workplace.

My attempt at a callback (reply):

Mom: Your CPU (brain) can’t handle the L1 cache parameters you are attempting to achieve, until you expand your regularization abilities (chair too small for the cloths you wish to access quickly and brain too disorganized to be useful).

Mom: So run a Disk Cleanup (organize your closet) or prepare to meet the blue screen of death (you are about to catch some hands from big mama; mom is good at fighting).

Chinese President Xi Jinping is on his first trip to Europe in five years, which is likely to be dominated by Russia’s war in Ukraine as well as economic strains between Beijing and Brussels.

The first stop will be France, with Xi due to hold talks in Paris on May 6 with French President Emmanuel Macron and European Commission President Ursula von der Leyen, before travelling south to the Pyrenees.

After that, he will travel to Serbia and Hungary, two countries that have maintained close ties with Russia despite its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022.

But the trip also comes amid a deteriorating global security climate, with the war in Ukraine now into its third year and at least 34,683 Palestinians killed in Israel’s ongoing bombardment of Gaza.

More gov’t censorship and control over social media…
