She also wrote "The Last Man", one of the first "end-of-the-world" scifi novels. It was written after the death of her husband and her children. Only one son became an adult.

Vance is aggressive. Too aggressive. I think he won't build the fearful loyalties like Trump does. And that will make him fail when Trump is not in power. Seconds in command often do not have the spin like the leaders in fascist systems.

An AI is a huge mapping device of human literature. If the AI is trained by proper literature, the kids get advice from endless books and studies. I know that sounds weird but I studied how AI actually works. We mistake it for a persona, but we should see it as a library of knowledge.

This is very valuable information to me. Three years ago I followed a discussion. The people who spelled "anti-semitic" said that all people who spell "antisemitic" are antisemitic and vice versa. They also had a large number of explanations on both sides. I got very confused.

Unfortunately he was smart enough to become elected president of a huge nation with a lot of military force. What kind of indicator for humanity is that? I guess we need much smarter people to get this okay again.

Of course he meant it. He also wanted to become Pope when they buried Francis. He surely has a lot of fantasies and he is working at at least one of them with total devotion to the goal. I am just surprised that he is that fast! I thought it took a year longer to come to that point.

Leider bekomme ich diese Kommentare in meinem Discover-Feed. Es ist zwar links, rechtsextreme Accounts zu blocken. Aber sich dauernd damit zu beschäftigen, blockiert die eigentliche linke Arbeit. Es gibt viel zu tun. Mehr als das. (Und rechtsextreme Bots wirds immer geben. Bewusst endlos.)

Also, blood tests on the horses would be the true word to the situation. The toxin affects the liver first and the liver can take a lot. In the end, a short lifespan may result as ragwort metal poisoning is a slow one.

As a responsible owner it is up to the human to take care of the animal. Especially on restricted pasture land where the animals have no choice to change their fodder by moving away.

Experienced animals know how to avoid ragwort. But dried in the hay, it's difficult to detect. Also, individuals of lesser experience may feed accidently on them. The same goes for sheep. Some die because too eager to feed on it, some don't, because they noticed that the plant is not good for them.

Please do not support Trump. Not even indirectly. The US friend is long gone. Yes, the regime of Iran is dangerous, too. So, Europe needs to go its own way by offering peaceful options to solve this. But please don't side with anybody of these maniacs.

ANTIQUES 📷 #photography

Part of the wall of an old brown-brick building with terracotta roof tiles. There is a small dark brown wooden door a metre and a half above the ground, with a sign reading 'ANTIQUES' below it; above it a wooden box juts out of the side of the building, painted cream, with a small window on the front and a small pitched roof top. It is throwing a shadow down onto the wall. On the left there is a blue parking sign.
