“We are the underdogs in this race. Level set, ok. We are the underdogs in this race, but this is a people powered campign." - VP Kamala Harris at a political fundraiser this afternoon in the Berkshires

Before responding to someone online:

• ask yourself what emotions you feel and examine if they are valid

• ask yourself what outcome you desire and examine if your response is likely to achieve that outcome

• ask yourself if you would consider the response truthful, kind, necessary, and helpful if roles were reversed and you received what you wrote

• ask yourself if you would be ok with your response being the last thing you ever posted online

Trump Invites Reporters to Start Demanding His Medical Records

BBC lying through their teeth about what Olympics they're showing. I switched over to terrestrial TV from the FireTV stick because Radio Times said there would be men's gymnastics tonight, on 'red button'. So far it's been swimming on BBC1, and tennis and now boxing on 601 (aka 'red button'). Nope, not interested.

TOTALITARIANISM: A ONE-WAY TRAIN ON A NARROW TRACK

*The citizen of Totalitaria has no chance for such learning through unlearning, for growth through individual experience.

Official oversimplifications induce the captive audience into acceptance and indoctrination.

Mass ecstasy and mass fanaticism are substituted for quiet individual thought and consideration.

Hitler taught his people to march and to do battle, and at the end they did not know wherefore they marched and battled.*

In most red states Project 2025 is already being implemented. That's why it's so important to vote blue #UpAndDownTheBallot . Whenever you vote for a sheriff or judge your vote is important. For years these elections have been underestimated by many. And see what came from that.

In Republican-controlled states like Iowa, many components of Project 2025 are already a reality. Starting Line Social Media Manager Avery has more."

A few years ago, researchers at the University of Washington published an interesting study about altruism.

They paired a group of nineteen-month-old infants with adult researchers. The adult would carry in some fruit, pretend to clumsily drop the fruit onto a tray just out of reach, and then imploringly reach for the fruit.

About 60% of the infants picked up the fruit and handed it to the researcher.

But maybe the infants were being helpful because they didn’t care about the fruit, and so giving it away didn’t matter to them?

So the researchers asked parents to bring in their infants immediately before a normal meal and before their parents fed them, so the infants were hungry during the experiment.

Nearly 40% of the hungry infants still handed the fruit to the researchers.
