Promoters of polar bear catastrophe in Hudson Bay gloss over recent good ice conditions
Originally posted on polarbearscience: Hudson Bay has been oddly slow to freeze this year, which has led to a predictable bit of hand-wringing from certain biologists reiterating prophesies of polar bear population collapse. However, since 2009, the last time that freeze-up was anywhere near this late was 2016. In other words, far from this years’… read more

Dead Cats and Politics
It's the most overused phrase in British politics, and is becoming even more annoying than managerial staples like *going forward* and the perennially awful *across the piece* (don't get me started on those who say "piste"). I am talking about dead cats. Not the trail of unfortunates left in the wake of the lately debunked Croydon cat killer, but of the political variety. Apparently originating with right wing dark artist Lynton Crosby, it's a stratagem used to attract the media spotlight away from something politicians would rather not talk about. I.e. Whatever the dinner party is ... read more

White House Says Joe Biden Will Veto Bill Blocking Vaccine Mandate if It Passes The House
Two Democrats joined with Republicans yesterday in passing a bill that would eliminate any federal vaccine mandate.

Registered Nurse Suffers Pericarditis from Pfizer Shot – Put in Hospital Section for Vaccine Injured as She was 7th Patient Admitted That Day for Heart Issues Following COVID Shots

People Centered Human Rights And The Black Radical Tradition
International Human Rights Day is December 10. On that day in 1948 the Universal Declaration of Human Rights (UDHR) was promulgated as the first in a series of covenants, treaties, and legal interpretations that would make up the post-war human rights framework. However, the history of struggle that produced the UDHR, beginning with the 1945 convention in San Francisco that created the United Nations, is one that can only be characterized as contentious. It is not possible to cover all of that history here. However, it is important that the historiography of Black activism that sa... read more
US Shouldn’t Be Invited To Summit For Democracy, Let Alone Be Its Host
This week, the United States is convening a virtual “Summit for Democracy,” the first of its kind in what the State Department hopes to make an annual event. It’s no surprise that Washington has declined to invite its two biggest geopolitical foes, Russia and China. The two countries banded together to publish an opinion article in The National Interest, correctly characterizing the circus of a summit as a “product of [Washington’s] Cold-War mentality” aimed at stoking “ideological confrontation and a rift in the world.” The post US Shouldn’t Be Invited To Summit For Democracy, Le... read more

A New Campaign Fights To Stop The Criminalization Of Poverty
Anew campaign, Housing Not Handcuffs, is attempting to stop the criminalization of homelessness and poverty in the United States. Led by the National Homelessness Law Center, the effort builds on research the Law Center has been conducting since 2006. The Law Center’s latest report, issued in late November, tracks laws in all fifty states—plus Washington, D.C.—that make it a criminal offense to sleep, lie down, ask for money, loiter, erect a tent, put down a bedroll, “loaf,” or feed unhoused people in public.

How Oregon Is Turning The Page On America’s Disastrous Drug War
In a groundbreaking move, in 2020, Oregon voters approved the decriminalization of personal use amounts of all illicit drugs, with Measure 110 passing with a healthy 59 percent of the vote. That made Oregon the first state in the U.S. to make this dramatic break after decades of the war on drugs. Now, as other states are pondering a similar move and are looking for evidence to bolster their case for drug decriminalization, some of the initial results in Oregon are looking pretty impressive and promising.

Veterans Target US Military’s Outsized Impact On The Climate Crisis

A TERF-Far Right Alliance Has Launched A New Transphobic Onslaught
Modern-day transphobia, embodied by the Trans-Exclusionary Radical Feminist (TERF) movement, emerged across the English Channel. Until now, it has been mostly anecdotal in France, but the rhetorical apparatus they have constructed is beginning to pick up in France by relying on the reactionary situation that France is experiencing. This is a short guide to survival in a transphobic environment. The post A TERF-Far Right Alliance Has Launched A New Transphobic Onslaught appeared first on PopularResistance.Org. read more

"Hint of Truth"
*"Hint of Truth"* by Bill Bonner YOUGHAL, IRELAND – "In the news yesterday came a report from FantasyLand that a nonexistent social media company had chosen a non-tech, non-media executive to head up its nonexistent operations.

Our premise here at the Diary is that it is real money that keeps our shoulders to the wheel and our feet on the ground. We want it. And we get it by providing goods and services to othe... read more

Global Posture Review Makes Only Minor Changes to American Hegemony
*Ivan Eland* *Global Posture Review, * The Global Posture Review is another reminder that Congress must reclaim its war powers. The Global Posture Review, the Pentagon’s analysis of worldwide deployments of U.S. forces, has made only incremental changes from the global positioning of troops by the Trump administration. In certain regions of the world—Europe and East and West Africa—the Biden administration is likely to reverse Trump’s troop reductions. In addition, Biden will advance his well-publicized resumption of the Obama administration’s “pivot to [East] Asia” by ending U... read more
Have Serious Health Problems? File Early for Social Security.
*Ethen Kim Lieser* *Social Security, Americas* If a person can wait until age seventy to file, then he or she would be eligible for large monthly checks or about $4,100. For the past several decades, most Americans have been advised by financial experts to wait as long as possible before filing for their Social Security benefits. The reason to do so is rather obvious—bigger checks will be waiting for those who already have the financial resources to hold off. What exactly is the difference? The Social Security Administration has noted that if a person can wait until age sevent... read more

Want to Sink an American Aircraft Carrier? Here's What it Takes
*David Axe* *Aircraft Carriers, United States* The USS America withstood four weeks of explosions before being scuttled in tests in 2005. *Here's What You Need to Remember*: Sinking just one carrier could kill 5,000 Americans, Lou pointed out. Sink two, and you double the toll. "We’ll see how frightened America is" after losing 10,000 sailors, the Chinese admiral crowed. A Chinese admiral and pundit once told a trade-show audience that Beijing could resolve China's territorial disputes by sinking two U.S. Navy aircraft carriers and killing thousands of American sailors.

Smith and Wesson Shows How to do .22 Pistols the Right Way
*Richard Douglas* *Guns, * I can say confidently that I think the M&P 22 is one of the better .22 pistols you can snatch up right now. My dad always said the best things in life are shooting guns, cold beer, and the feeling of finishing a hard day's work, not necessarily in that order. I agree with him, but the guns are where it’s at. Especially .22LR, and even more specifically the Smith and Wesson M&P 22. If you want to know why you should buy an M&P 22, keep on reading because this pistol is no slouch. By now we’re all familiar with the S&W M&P line for the most part. They’re... read more

Fawlty analogy
It is widely believed that Julie Birchill coined a phrase that goes something like “A stupid person’s idea of a smart person.” Other versions of the same thing can occasionally appear, such as “a stupid person’s idea of an intellectual” or sometimes it’s “dumb person” who has the idea, and it sometimes appertains to Stephen Fry. Anyway, I think it applies perfectly to this MCB report by The Centre for Media Monitoring. “The Centre for Media Monitoring (CfMM) is a project of the Muslim Council of Britain” This report looks (to me) rather like an example of *a semi-literate p... read more
