The Farmer’s Word: Winona LaDuke, a False Etymology, and the True Root of “Colonization”
A reader sent me a video clip. In it, Winona LaDuke opens a talk on colonization by reaching for the dictionary, and the first thing she says is wrong. LaDuke is Anishinaabe, from White Earth in northern Minnesota. She trained as an economist, ran twice for vice president on the Green Party ticket, wrote All Our Relations, and has spent four decades on wild rice, pipelines, and land recovery. Rooms fill when she speaks. So when she tells an audience that colonization "has the same root as the word colon" and that the root "means to digest," that line travels. It is vivid, it is anatomical, it is easy to repeat, and it is the sentence people carry home. It is also folklore. This is a claim about the history of a word; no lexicon supports it, and it collapses the moment anyone opens a Greek dictionary. The rest of her argument is largely sound and in places understated. That is exactly why the false root matters. An argument this strong should not be walking around with a demolition charge strapped to its opening line. […] -

Играем летом при перебоях с интернетом
Продолжается сезон отпусков – всего месяц остался, но все же. Во время полетов, на пляже, на борту корабля или катера не всегда доступны мессенджеры, рабочая почта и соцсети. Самое время для автономных развлечений вроде журнала, книги или мобильной игры, не требующей стабильного подключения. Во что играть? Я собрал проекты российских разработчиков – от небольших инди-студий до крупных компаний мирового уровня. В списке шутер от первого лица, ностальгический квест с умным юмором, головоломки и настоящая легенда (вполне ожидаемая). Все эти игры работают в офлайн-режиме. Прямо как во времена, когда диски вставляли в компьютер ( уходит эпоха ), а «Змейка» на телефоне не знала об интернете. Обязательно дополняйте список своими любимыми играми.

"... the appalling people running #sport's greatest institutions represent a clear and present threat to an ecosystem the world needs more than ever."

Trump has ousted members of a bipartisan federal election commission that resisted his efforts to require would-be voters to document their U.S. citizenship before registering.
The White House on Friday confirmed the executive action against members of the Election Assistance Commission,
which distributes federal grants to states, oversees the testing of voting systems and maintains the national voter registration form.
It’s the latest instance of the Republican president trying to exert White House influence over how U.S. elections are conducted,
and it’s the first test of his newly expanded presidential power after the Supreme Court ruled recently that the president can fire members of independent agency boards without cause.
“The President, and head of the Executive Branch, reserves the right to remove individuals that may not be totally aligned with the important task of securing America’s elections and ensuring every legal vote is counted.
The #Slaughter decision gives the President precedence to do so,” said a White House statement to AP.
The president removed the four-seat commission’s two Democratic members, Thomas Hicks and Benjamin Hovland.
The panel’s Republican member, Christy McCormick resigned.
Former Republican commissioner Donald Palmer already had left his post voluntarily earlier this year.
Trump has repeatedly tried to reshape voting regulations,
even though the U.S. Constitution grants control of elections to the states and not the president.
Citing that separation of powers, courts have blocked most of Trump’s two executive orders that sought to reshape voting.
Trump has also launched an investigation of his 2020 loss,
which he continues to falsely insist was due to fraud,
and this week his administration threatened states if they did not try to purge what federal officials claim are noncitizens from their voter rolls.

🇺🇸🧑⚖️ "Der Fall #Trump vs. #Slaughter enthält viel wirtschaftspolitische Sprengkraft. Es hat das Potenzial dazu, den Datenaustausch zwischen #EU und #USA auf den Kopf zustellen. Zudem könnte die Cloud-Nutzung US-amerikanischer Anbieter – egal, ob in Europa gehostet – illegal sein."

A few early thoughts on #slaughter. I saw it as a kind of "line item veto" by the #SCOTUS majority, which I thought might be a useful comparison for others too. #law https://blogs.gwu.edu/zwolfe/2026/06/29/unitary-executive-and-judicial-line-item-veto/

To conservative legal theorists, Constitutional originalism is a tool for restraining democratic checks on Presidential power, but rarely for restraining Presidential power itself.

“In short, our authoritarian president was just handed the keys to be even more authoritarian, and the long-term consequences will no doubt be disastrous,” said Rachel Rossi, president of Alliance for Justice, a progressive judicial advocacy group, in a statement on the ruling.

https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2026/jun/12/palestine-action-activists-sentenced-terrorists-damage-elbit-systems-uk-israel. This is completely & absolutely unacceptable, but par-for-the-course in the #UK now, as our supine #courts & our equally supine #Labour #Government do the bidding of #Israel, & never mind its #genocide in #Gaza & wholesale #slaughter of the #Palestinians, or in #Lebanon & #Iran. These #prison #sentences, at a time of absurd prison #overcrowding, are all wholly disproportionate, & should NOT have been linked to #terrorism. These #defendants are NOT #terrorists.

To be an Arab in the Middle East means accepting a fate worse than death, and surrendering what remains of your powerless will to a sky that now represents nothing but the antithesis of freedom and salvation, all whilst a complicit world looks on in silent assent.
