INVENTED FEARS ARE A NECESSARY PART OF THE TRUMPIAN LANDSCAPE, DEMONS WHO THREATEN THE RACIST UTOPIA

*"It is there!" "It is chasing us!"

All the inner fears of losing the nirvanic womb-illusion become rampant. Mysterious ghosts and vultures chase people out of nirvana and paradise.

In these fantasies, the patriarch, the dictator, the idol, becomes both the universal danger and the omnipotent savoir at the same time. Not even the citizens of Totalitaria really love this cruel giant.*

The MAGA mob sublimates hatred for authority into hatred of scapegoats:

*The deep hate the sick individual feels toward the parental figure cannot be expressed directly, so it is displaced onto scapegoats -- Kulaks, Negroes, Jews, Communists, capitalists, profiteers & warmongers [but] the greatest danger is the use of intellect and awareness and the "egg-head's" demand for free, verifying thinking. Aberration & perversion are chosen by the citizens of Totalitaria*

This is such sad news. #AppleVis was more than a forum, it was a community. They provided some of the best summaries of Apple events such as WWDC and others, and the app directory was so useful to check whether apps were accessible or not before wasting time and money on them. Not to mention the impact the site has had on accessibility at Apple. Not many sites would have such active communication with the accessibility team at Apple of all companies. A huge thanks and congratulations to David and the team for building such a valuable resource and sticking with it through the years https://www.applevis.com/blog/end-era-message-founder-we-announce-closure-applevis

Free people read freely. This means that other people are sometimes going to read things you don’t approve of. Things that bother you. That disgust you. That you find morally reprehensible.

A little life advice, if you're in an army that is invading a NATO supplied country and your commander orders you to get on a golf cart or even a camouflage painted ATV in order to go probe the front lines than you are the meat in a meat wave assault.

So, my advice would be to ditch whatever weapons you have, get a big white piece of cloth and wave it madly while trying to reach the other army to surrender, #JustSayin

..."Yesterday, U.S. officials arrested Ismael Zambada García, or “El Mayo,” cofounder of the violent and powerful drug trafficking organization the Sinaloa Cartel, and Joaquín Guzmán López, a son of its other cofounder. That other cofounder, Joaquín Guzmán Loera, or “El Chapo,” is already incarcerated in the U.S., as are another of El Chapo’s sons, alleged cartel leader Ovidio Guzmán López, and the cartel’s alleged lead hitman, Néstor Isidro Pérez Salas, or “El Nini.”

In a statement, Attorney General Merrick Garland said: “Fentanyl is the deadliest drug threat our country has ever faced, and the Justice Department will not rest until every single cartel leader, member, and associate responsible for poisoning our communities is held accountable.” El Mayo has been charged with drug trafficking and money laundering.

U.S. officials exploited rifts in the cartel to get Guzmán López to bring El Mayo in. The successful and peaceful capture of the two Sinaloa Cartel leaders contrasts with Trump’s insistence that the U.S. must bomb or invade Mexico to damage the cartels, a position echoed by Republican vice presidential candidate J.D. Vance and increasingly popular in the Republican Party. Mexico, which is America’s biggest trade partner, staunchly opposes such an intervention. Opponents note that such military action would do nothing to decrease demand for illegal drugs in the U.S. and would increase the numbers of asylum-seekers at the border as their land became a battleground.

Trump seems to think that governance is about dominance,
...
Trump praised autocratic Hungarian prime minister Viktor Orbán in his speech at the Republican National Convention last week and then publicly praised China’s president Xi Jinping for being “brilliant” because he “controls 1.4 billion people with an iron fist.”
...
“America can do better than the bitter, bizarre, and backward looking delusions of criminal Donald Trump. Vice President Kamala Harris offers a vision for America's future focused on freedom, opportunity, and security.”

Harris continually refers to Trump as a criminal in her speeches, but her campaign has taken the approach of referring to him and J.D. Vance as weirdos. On Tuesday, Minnesota governor Tim Walz said, “These guys are just weird.” Senators Chris Murphy of Connecticut and Brian Schatz of Hawaii recorded a video together about Vance’s “super weird,” “bananas,”
...
Today, Vice President Kamala Harris filled out the paperwork officially declaring her candidacy for president of the United States. "...

I experienced delays leaving the gym.

This, I learned, is Bilbo. Bilbo got loose from his owner, who searched the area panicked for about 15 minutes before discovering that Bilbo had simply run ahead to the gym. The owner figured he'd get a workout in, but Bilbo wasn't tied up for an excessively long time. And he normally wouldn't be tied up at all.

He also spent almost no time waiting alone. Half the people who passed by stopped to pet him, and I got my RDA of dog slobber.
