There is no benefit to a child speaking to the media about this. It puts them in harms way (you've been given evidence already), even if we haven't seen physical violence towards them (yet). It is exploitative to have children interviewed like this.

Appreciate any virtual links if there are any! Now to see what all these abbreviations are...

Spaces for people to be people, to interact, exist, participate in the society we live in without pressure to perform, pay or live up to standards we set ourselves - or have set for us - are incredibly important. Informal interactions really help to congeal the social glue in my everyday life.

I don't see anything further down, but since you're needlessly antagonistic I'll just leave you to it.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
I didn't say you did. You seem to have talked yourself into a weird self-argument.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
You're apportioning blame for something out of their control.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
To what? It's your post.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
I'm trying to work out what it means.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
And now? Oh wait, there was just a shooting in NYC, so... is it not okay or because there was a publicised mass shooting there is it not okay?
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
So why are you here? No one is forcing anyone to be dependent on one platform for their news, least of all one which doesn't provide news itself. If public media is "biased", it only reflects reality, not that another 'side' is worth listening to.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
You are surely a comedy account, right?
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
You haven't provided any reasoning.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
I would be checking internet history, see if you know how to access his accounts. You may need to get access to his phone number (report a lost SIM, for example) to get into recovering them. Look at Googe location data if possible (through maps). Check his accounts (Steam, Discord, social media)

What about now, Pablo?
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
"probably", how wouldn't you know?
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
So you follow it? There is no algorithm here.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
Then how/why are you here?
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
What about now? It's been nine days since your last comment, can we now talk about it or has everyone moved on and it's too late now? Please, tell us.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
So... don't follow the account?
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
The president continues: "We basically have two countries that have been fighting so long and so hard that they don't know what the fuck they're doing."
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
No, it isn't. You keep calling people names; look at yourself. It's also now been a few days, is it okay now? Do we have your permission to ask for things to be done about it or has something else taken over the news cycle and it's now too late? Please, give us your instructions.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
You went full out and called me an "asshole", so yeah, look at yourself.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
It's never the fucking time, eh.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
Sorry, but you are that country and will be until you do something about it. It's a uniquely American problem and American line of ignorance that you refuse to acknowledge this very real issue.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
Read 'their' other posts, and no, don't deflect.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
"cheer" how? Not sure if you're being deliberately obtuse, but the point of their post is to highlight how ridiculous Israel's comments are about attacks on Gaza.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
Israel has democracy (as they're wont to say), so they too should be ousting Bibi.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
That's the point.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
Is there any trustworthy reporting on this?
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social)
This march to Gaza is taking place now in Egypt; passports have been taken, some returned (to the wrong people); phones and laptops seized, some returned, some not. Egypt is not on the right side of this. They have employed local thugs to beat and terrorise peaceful marchers.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
Isn't Bluesky unregulated? There have been authoritarian responses to Telegram, the latest being Vietnam to block it (not at all because they have their own messaging program that they want everyone on...).
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
What a catch, definitely excited to listen to this one, especially as there has been some good breathing room since she stepped down to reflect.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
It says "may", not that it does. Regardless, investment in local areas is undoubtedly a good thing.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
For academic accountability/credibility: "Our results suggest public libraries may reduce criminal offenses within their nearby proximity." A case study of one is fine, but it's not definitive.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
How are you surprised about something which has been this way forever?

I've used this for my master's, it's really a great help for us with ADHD.

Cheers, that works.

Where is Thiel?

Issawhatnow? The books are not famous because of the films; they may have expanded the popularity, but the books were very very popular before they were released. The reason they got a film franchise is because the books were popular.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
Giving this more airtime is draining. Better not to give her the press.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
Not really, it's because of the books, which existed before the actors did.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social)
Sleep, exercise, eating well, all good things, but this is one of the more concerning issues for myself on the spectrum. ASD peeps have lower life expectancies and have to take more care about these things.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
Looks like your standard grilla.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
Quite, spelling mistakes, assumptions, "sworn enemy"? Umm.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
Just ignoring her makes more sense; no one is really paying any attention to her outside nonsense like this.

He also has British and Irish citizenship (soon to revoke though I think).

After peaking at $480 this is just delicious. You just know people will be buying the fall thinking it's going to come back up any day now, or self-owning to own the libs?

Behind closed doors 'diplomacy' out in the open. Wow.

Look at your keyboard and have a little think about that.

Adam (@adammb.bsky.social)
In step with the US, Labour is taking from foreign aid and funding the war machine, reducing from 0.5% to 0.3%, making it eight times less than the funding will be for "defence". Thousands of children die each day in the Global South due to waterborne diseases. steps-centre.org/project/mani...

I'm leaning towards not going for the World Cup anymore. I just assumed Harris would get in and everything would be hunky-dory; fuck me, eh?
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
No need to try and touch... Come on.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
I didn't; it made me realise I don't need it as much as I thought I did, that it is simply a tool or something that shouldn't be seen as a measure of success.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
Gotcha. This is specifically talking about the targeting of white working class boys/men by those peddling extremist views; should these issues not be considered? I don't see the comments on being "gentle", just to address that class is also an issue (which the images you linked to don't mention).
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
The comment acknowledges this concept; it doesn't stop radicalisation though.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
Did anyone say it was? It's an explanation of why Tate et al are attractive to white working class boys in dead-end towns.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
Delightful. Thanks for the background.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social)
Well there we go.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
What's this about? I don't get it.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
"Between 2008 and the early 2010s, Hanania wrote for alt-right and white supremacist publications under the pseudonym Richard Hoste" How unsurprising.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social)
If only.

It's why they have the money (because it has come from the bottom 90%) rather than why they are spending more.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
I don't like that we have to give, but I do, regularly (this is important for orgs so they can plan better), in amounts I don't really notice. We should all be doing this.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
The Dispossessed (Le Guin): it made me realise that money and love are both things which I need in different ways; one being enough to enable the other to flourish, the latter of which being something that does not need to be limited by traditional relationship make-ups.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
Too late for that now.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
Absolutely, or enact policy which forces them to be sustainable (which is pretty much impossible) or they have to pay accordingly. There was a ninny I heard of who, as his 'legacy', thought building a golf course would be a fitting way for him to bow out. Yeah, what a silly idea.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
1. Talk/write about what you know, source it, be authoritative without arrogance 2. Include others, especially those impacted by the subject, give them workable methods 3. Start small, in your community; what problem do you see? What small thing can you do today to help fix it?
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social)
Taking influence from @cantlonlab.bsky.social's "Science Homecoming" post (re: sciencehomecoming.com). What can we do to promote science, knowledge and democracy without being shy (since that went out the window) about what we know?
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
Gotcha, thanks.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
Who have you blocked? I guess I really don't understand the layout of Bluesky as I'm not sure what's going on here.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
Thanks; I'd never heard of the place until we watched Dopesick.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
I haven't been in a place with a local paper for quite a long time but I guess now's the time to reach out, eh!

Real Tigers, Mick Herron. Prolific and consistent. I need some sort of fiction in these times.

"I knew he’d grown up in the holler." What is the holler?

Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
I don't need to look at someone born over two hundreds years ago in a country I have no connection to; I can look at Europe (where I'm from), our former PM and what had to happen during wartime. The "church" was a pawn of Russia, stop trying to bring that up like it's a point against freedom.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
No, I didn't, and your insistence makes you look ridiculous. Great reach, yet again.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
I didn't. So, stop putting words in people's mouths.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
Nope. Get fucked.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
This is my comment: "No, it isn't. Good attempt at a reach, though." I didn't mention Trump, I didn't mention breaking laws, or supporting illegal immigration, or exploitation. You did.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
Funny you don't understand wartime politics. A reminder, this is not unusual, it happens when countries are attacked and need stable leadership. You can look here for when it was done in the UK, for example: api.parliament.uk/historic-han... But please, keep going on your weird little tirade.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
Where did I say any of that? You sure do like to put words in people's mouths. Maybe learn to string logical ideas together.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
I'm not engaging on a point you reached at.
Adam (@adammb.bsky.social) reply parent
No, it isn't. Good attempt at a reach, though.
