@purplepadma If you ever feel like brainstorming the best one for you, give me a shout.
@verdantsquare I wish them luck. The far right there is as bad as the far right here. @MarkRNay@ravenation.club @bmacDonald94
@purplepadma Exactly! Give yourself at least 3 months to determine that framework. Get to know it inside and out as it will inform your research. There are hundreds out there.

@kikebenlloch @unnameduser @andrewstroehlein I am appalled, I find the destruction horrible, I am heartbroken for the dead and injured.
I just place blame differently than you. For example: if Hamas would release all the hostages this would stop today.
But because people know they can’t reason with fanatics, they want Israel to, and blame Israel when it doesn’t.

Does anyone knows someone working for Child protective services in Texas by any chance ?
A friend of mine is seeking help with a horrific story involving a cop and kids in Tarrant county and it seems like nothing is moving forward, I would love to put them in contact with people that can help. They are not on Mastodon but I can forward contact infos.
Please boost for reach, this is apparently quite urgent !

Portugal just ran on 100% renewables for six days in a row
> For nearly a week, the country of 10 million met customer needs with wind, hydro and solar — a test run for operating the grid without fossil fuels.

"What if the problem isn’t that consumers of media fail to understand the actual stakes of losing democracy?...
“...Donald #Trump is telling us, loud and clear, that he wants to end American #democracy as we know it.”
There is going to come a moment—and for many of the #writers cited above, that moment has already arrived—in which the #media appropriately reports on the enormity of the stakes and nobody flinches."

@purplepadma Oh I remember those days! Choosing your conceptual or theoretical framework is the most important part of your research. But it will come to you.

The pièce de résistance of her piece is her pondering about #peace.
"Might WE be able to stop the ongoing killing?" -- emphasis mine.
NO.
WE #US can't stop it. Neither can any of the #G7, nor #Israel, for the simple reason that #Hamas wants a #permanentStateOfWar ➡️ https://mastodon.social/@rameshgupta/111379041814593155
I won't repeat that argument, but follow the above link, or better yet, follow the hashtag #permanentStateOfWar. Go up, down, and sideways, as the affordance arrows show where more content is located.

A first-rate editorial from the Washington Post, urging Congress to ban AR-15 style rifles, bump stocks, and large magazines, all tools of mass shooters. Gift access at https://wapo.st/3MNVSkO. It follows from the Post’s excellent ongoing reporting about AR-15s, how they work and how the gun industry promotes them. #GunViolence

I'm over my self-pitying rant.
I will stop reading comments before I stop posting.
I think, though, that helping people understand the First Amendment issues at stake in the gag orders is less important than helping people understand that the real danger to democracy is misinformation and disinformation, and these things cannot be fixed through the legal system.

@littlebunnyubu Good gods! Whatever made you do that in the first place? @RickiTarr
