  1. [Small] Is Not Nothing

    Your garden is not nothing.

    Your repaired jacket is not nothing.

    Your conversation with a neighbor about starting a seed library is not nothing.

    Small, consistent, local action is what change has always been made of.

    Every #sustainable choice helps.

  5. Donald Trump’s foul-mouthed migrant rant captured in private pitch to donors

    Donald Trump unleashed a foul-mouthed tirade about undocumented #immigrants and predicted that this “could be the #last #election we ever have”
    if Kamala Harris wins during a private fundraising dinner this summer.

    The Guardian obtained a 12-minute recording of a speech that the Republican presidential nominee gave at a dinner on 10 August in Aspen, Colorado,
    👉 where attendees were required to donate anywhere from $25,000 to $500,000 a couple.

    Trump devoted most of his address to #border security and #immigration, recycling xenophobic claims now familiar from his rallies.

    “Radical leftwing lunatics” want people to come in from #prisons, mental institutionsand insane #asylums, he asserted without evidence, adding that the US was harbouring “a record number of #terrorists”.

    The former president insisted that “smart, very streetwise” leaders of Venezuela and other South American countries were sending murderers and drug dealers to the US to reduce their own crime rates, relieve the burden on their prisons and save money.

    Trump cited a false example of 22 people he claimed had come to the US after being released from prison in the Democratic Republic of the Congo. -- “We said, ‘Where do you come from?’ They said, ‘Prison’.
    -- ‘What did you do?’ ‘None of your fucking business what we did.’ You know why? Because they’re murderers.”

    The candidate added, “I hate to use that foul language”, apparently recognising that his use of the F-word went further than his campaign rallies. -- The Congolese government has said there is no truth to Trump’s statements.

    The candidate went on: “These are the toughest people. These people are coming in from Africa, from the Middle East. They’re coming in from all parts of Asia, the bad parts, the parts where they’re rough, and the only thing good is they make our criminals look extremely nice. They make our Hell’s Angels look like the nicest people on earth.”

    Studies show that immigrants are less likely to commit crime than native-born Americans.

    Trump flew to Aspen on a Gulfstream G-550 jet once owned by #Jeffrey #Epstein, the late disgraced financier and convicted sex offender, after his own private plane – a Boeing 757 known colloquially as Trump Force One – encountered engine trouble.

    The dinner was held at the $38m home of the investors and art collectors ♦️John and Amy #Phelan.
    Guests included the casino mogul Steve #Wynn, billionaire businessman Thomas #Peterffy, Texas governor Greg #Abbott, Florida congressman Byron #Donalds, Colorado congresswoman Lauren #Boebert and former Colorado senator Cory #Gardner.

    Trump, who instigated an attempted coup on 6 January 2021 and has claimed that his Democratic rival Harris poses the true threat to democracy, used the exclusive event to warn of dire consequences if she becomes president.

    “Look, we gotta win and if we don’t win this country’s going to hell,” he said.
    “You know, there’s an expression, this could be the last election we ever have and it’s an expression that I really believe, and I believe that this could be the last election we ever have.”

  7. Blogkino: The Killers (1946)

    Heute zeigen wir im #Blogkino den #Thriller The Killers. Der erste Akt des Films, in dem der Ex-Boxer Ole „Der Schwede“ Anderson Opfer von zwei Auftragsmördern wird, basiert auf Ernest #Hemingway​s Kurzgeschichte Die Killer. Ab dem zweiten Akt untersucht der Versicherungsdetektiv Reardon anhand von in Rückblenden präsentierten #Zeugenaussagen die Gründe von Andersons Tod und erfährt, dass die Femme fatale Kitty Collins eine verhängnisvolle Rolle in dessen Schicksal spielte. The Killers gilt sowohl visuell als auch formal als ein Paradebeispiel für den Film noir. Für die Hauptdarsteller Burt #Lancaster und Ava #Gardner markierte der Film den Startpunkt ihrer Karrieren. The Killers wurde für vier #Oscars nominiert und etablierte Robert #Siodmak als einen der führenden #Hollywood-#Regisseur​e der 1940er Jahre.
