For The Girl Who Doesn’t Believe She Is Worthy Of Love
Natalie Porter, Enlightened Consciousness - 11 hours ago
Have you experienced the pain of not feeling good enough? Have you pushed people away who would do anything for you, for the person whose attention and love you crave, only to find out later that the one you want does not even care about you? Having loads of people in your life who will move mountains for you and would like to make you happy, yet that doesn’t matter because the one person whose heart you want doesn’t care about your feelings or that you even exist. The compliments you receive, you take with a pinch of salt as you don’t believe them, purely cause the one you would...

Terrace, PopularResistance.Org - 11 hours ago
Senior Trump administration officials were in on the planning of and offered assistance to the abortive May 3, 2020, invasion of Venezuela carried out by a mercenary band that included at least two former US special forces operatives, according to a lawsuit filed in Miami, Florida, last Friday. The conspiracy to carry out the illegal invasion was hatched, at least in part, at the Trump Hotel in Washington D.C. and at a Trump golf course in Florida, and was facilitated by individuals with close ties to the US president and Vice President Mike Pence.

The Contours Of Resistance Beyond The Election
Terrace, PopularResistance.Org - 12 hours ago
From occupied Philadelphia to occupied Palestine, the people in the colonized spaces of empire will find it hard to discern a difference between how Democratic and Republican oppressors treat them. In Philadelphia, Trump’s Department of Justice (DOJ) prosecutors borrowed a page from the Obama administration’s DOJ playbook. If folks recall, after the Baltimore uprisings in 2015, Obama’s DOJ slapped federal charges on the resisters Obama had referred to as “thugs and criminals.” Just last week, the Trump DOJ swept into Philly and nationalized a local law enforcement by...

Amazon Bans Book Exposing US COVID-19 Chaos
Terrace, PopularResistance.Org - 13 hours ago
A decision by the Amazon company to block a book focused on a scientific and cooperative approach to COVID-19 amounts to corporate information control operating at a new intensity. This censorship occurs while almost every form of U.S. media permits and promotes racist, unscientific and thoroughly confusing information. The censored book is “Capitalism on a Ventilator: The Impact of COVID-19 in China & the U.S.” This anthology of 55 articles by a broad range of social justice authors discuss the importance of free health care, social distancing, testing, protective equipment, educ...

Women in France in Uproar, Forced to Go Against Natural Instincts As Doctors Enforce Mask Wearing During Childbirth
Nick Meyer, AltHealthWorks.com - 13 hours ago
Is it natural, or healthy in the least bit, for a woman to wear a cloth mask during the intense and difficult process of childbirth? It’s common sense that breathing is one of the most important parts of the process, hence the widely known and utilized breathing classes that women take prior to going into labor in the hospital. But now, women in France are reportedly in an uproar over being forced to wear masks during childbirth, with doctors allegedly refusing to treat anyone who refuses to wear one. The mask mandate is stronger than those in other developed nations, many of whom h...

Why 8K HDTVs Aren't Selling

Its TVs are advertised as the highest-end products, and most of the major TV manufacturers offer them. However, 8K hasn’t quite broken through, mostly due to the high price point, and because there’s simply no 8K content available to watch on the TVs, and it’s not likely there will be for several more years. Yes, 4K content can be “upconverted” on 8K models, but that’s not quite worth the price point that can go into the five figures. Now, a...

November Oil Exports Up For Iraq As It Continues To Violate OPEC+ Agreement
Joel Wing, MUSINGS ON IRAQ - 14 hours ago
Iraq’s exports and revenues increased in October despite prices for its crude declining for the last two months. In October Iraq exported an average of 2.87 million barrels a day of oil. That was up from 2.613 million barrels in September, and the highest amount since 3.2 million in May. Iraq Oil Report noted that this was due to the Oil Ministry ordering a 250,000 barrel a day increase in production last month. This was likely due to the government being desperate for funds as it is facing a huge budget deficit with the collapse in the petroleum market this year due to the CO...

Luboš Motl, The Reference Frame - 2 hours ago
I went to bed for 6 hours and woke up at 3 am my time (9 pm Eastern Time). The U.S. presidential election began to converge towards a certainty of another Trump victory. Some five states were undecided and the required advantage for Biden would have to be huge, relatively to the counted ballots, for him to win. So all these states were almost certain to go Trump. But Biden needed at least 2 of them if Pennsylvania were counted, or at least 3 of them if not. However, around 7 am my time (1 am Eastern Time), all the counts got totally stuck. For hours. And after a few hours, some amaz...

They're very difficult to operate accurately, fast and effectively, due to their diminutive size. They're also very fatiguing to use for extended practice sessions. The same applies to slightly larger handguns, also falling into the sub-compact cate...
