#Canada's #mining legacy is nothing but abusive and irresponsible to communities and the #environment the world over. Somehow this latest assault in the #NWT is just more of the same old carelessness and disregard. https://cabinradio.ca/291932/news/arts/ai-generated-activity-book-for-nwt-mining-week-draws-concerns/

CW: Trump administration's antisemitism policy - New Yorker article
@fullyabstract That’s a #misrepresentation. #Jews aren’t given “unique” #protections. Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 bars #discrimination by federally funded institutions based on race, color, or national origin — and courts have applied this to Jews. The same protections apply to Christians, Muslims, Sikhs, Black people, LGBTQ+, etc. There is no carve-out just for Jews.

I'm still processing the breakup from Siren.
Our relationship was dead before it had begun, because it was all based on misrepresentation.
Polyamory and BDSM are both based on being honest with one another.
I had left the door open a crack with my last message to them, but I think any further relationship is impossible.
In their ultimate proposal to me, they managed to grab a shovel and dig themselves into a hole so deep that I think it is impossible to crawl out of it.
They ended up in a situation where my reply would be "were you misrepresenting yourself then, or are you misrepresenting yourself now?" Either way, that's misrepresentation, and it is caustic to polyamory and BDSM.
I'm glad we had our time together. After my previous intimate encounter that turned out to be a disaster, I needed a boost. I got it. Our sex was amazing. I did tell them that I've felt this level of sexual compatibility with only three people, and they were number three. They actually agreed with me that we were "startlingly compatible." (Their words.)
Their last message to me was replete with excuses about their mental health, and telling me that their therapist and Dom (in Seattle) said. At the end of the day, it matters little, what they consider the ultimate cause to be. If you are structurally liable to misrepresent yourself, you're not compatible with me.
End of story.

If the report is true, and I have every reason to beleive it is, then I strongly condem Labor (I am a party member) for it's manipulation of first people's views on gas extraction and the use of fossil fuel-based energy production in their community. Labor is guilty of misrepresentation of the grossest kind in order to shore up it's inane gas strategy. The quote is misleading enough to raise questions despite govt fustigations.
'.. the corporation’s quotes [used in the Govt report] are selected from its much longer submission on the strategy, which says: “The answer for the problems of energy security in our communities is not gas but solar energy which is free, plentiful and does not cause further damage to the climate. This is where we want governments to concentrate.”
Shame on Labour, shame, shame, shame.

Biden launches police state crackdown at US universities
https://www.wsws.org/en/articles/2024/04/24/vcgw-a24.html
The Biden administration, in alliance with the fascist-led Republican Party, is criminalizing political opposition to the Gaza genocide, the greatest war crime of the 21st century.

Bad form to Sevenoaks and Swanley Liberal Democrats for putting out something purporting to be a local newspaper called 'Sevenoaks and Swanley Gazette' containing their messaging. This is very misleading and could confuse elderly people. This makes me LESS likely to vote for them, not more. Is this happening elsewhere in the country?

Please consider:
1. Prison abolition means killing the cop in your head, and not policing the people around you.2. Growth mindset means giving people opportunities to grow. It means seeking rehabilitation rather than punitive/retributive justice.
3. Drawing boundaries means defining limits for yourself — not for other people. Boundaries are for *your* actions, not for demanding what others will and won't do.
4. Compassion means giving people space to grow or not. Protecting yourself doesn't mean attacking. Let the facts speak for themselves.
5. If you highlight only some facts and not others, you're either unaware of a gap in your understanding — or actively creating bias. Misrepresentation and bias can come from omission as well as from saying things that aren't true.

For some reason, Bellingcat hasn't linked to this article of theirs yet here on Mastodon. Here's their intro:
