Human and animal sacrifice in history
As usual, my mind has been all over the map while I ponder the solemnities of eternity reflecting on how this relates to that and how that relates to this. Today I was Googling the hieroglyphics in the book of Abraham to see if anyone has translated the missing pieces. Then Google sounds off about all this fake nonsense about the facsimiles and I'm like OMG. Bill Gates is a lying freak. The book of Abraham purports to be a translation of an ancient papaya that claimed to be a copy of an original manuscript written by Abraham himself. People are going to debate its authenticity.

Is The Anti-War Movement Making A Difference In Russia?
*Washington Post: **Putin’s war grinds on, with dissent from Russian hawks and peace-seekers* Russian President Vladimir Putin has made it clear that he will not tolerate criticism of his assault on Ukraine. Russians who describe his “special military operation” as an invasion may be imprisoned for up to 15 years, and dissenters have been punished for speaking out. But as the war enters its fourth month, disapproval is increasingly bubbling to the surface — from war hawks who argue the Kremlin has been insufficiently aggressive to officials who don’t want to be part of the ... read more

Sanctions – wrecking ball in a global economy
By Sara Flounders U.S. government strategists are using sanctions as a wrecking ball to demolish the globalized economy. It is a desperate struggle to preserve their global hegemony and a unipolar world. The policy of consciously demolishing supply chains of essential products amounts to a reckless war on defenseless civilian populations. Sanctions disrupt trade worldwide and send shockwaves far beyond the countries directly targeted. This is well understood by financial planners. “Food shortages — it’s going to be real,” President Joe Biden said in Brussels March 25 at a NATO... read more

I've used the Titanic as an anology to explain the fragility of our financial system and the "glancing blow" of the pandemic. But there's a powerful analogy you haven't heard before.

"Promise Me..."
"For many great deeds are accomplished in times of squalid struggle. There is a kind of stubborn, unrecognized courage which in the lowest depths tenaciously resists the pressures of necessity and ill-doing; there are noble and obscure triumphs observed by no one, unacclaimed by any fanfare. Hardship, loneliness, and penury are a battlefield which has its own heroes, sometimes greater than those lauded in history. Strong and rare characters are thus created; poverty nearly always a foster-mother, may become a true mother, distress may be the nursemaid of pride, and misfortune the m... read more

Biden's 'transition' to not much
Politico: Soaring gasoline prices may help Democrats get the electric future they’re pining for — but not before it wipes them out at the polls. This year’s stream of record-breaking fuel prices is pushing growing numbers of consumers to consider swapping their gas guzzler for a battery-powered car or truck, the kind of mindset shift that could go a long way toward meeting President Joe Biden’s climate goals. But in the short term, the overheating U.S. economy offers little solace for either motorists or Biden’s party. Electric vehicles are still too expensive for many American ... read more

United Nations Warns Of ‘Total Societal Collapse’
When the United Nations published its 2022 ‘Global Assessment Report on Disaster Risk Reduction’ (GAR2022) in May, the world’s attention was on its grim verdict that the world was experiencing an accelerating trend of natural disasters and economic crises.

Capitalism And Baby Formula

The Rise Of NATO In Africa
Anxiety about the expansion of the North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) toward the Russian border is one of the causes of the current war in Ukraine. But this is not the only attempt at expansion by NATO, a treaty organization created in 1949 by the United States to project its military and political power over Europe. In 2001, NATO conducted an “out of area” military operation in Afghanistan, which lasted 20 years, and in 2011, NATO—at the urging of France—bombed Libya and overthrew its government. NATO military operations in Afghanistan and Libya were the prelude to discuss... read more

The Recipe For Misinformation In The 2022 Brazilian Elections
If in the electoral year of 2018, the fake-news which circulated the most on social media platforms were related to the candidates themselves, the current misinformation questions the electoral process itself, according to the specialists interviewed by Brasil de Fato.

Welcome To Selsey, A Community That Welcomed Back The Marsh

It was not the victim of a violent hurricane strike or storm surge. Rather, a low-pressure system coupled with a high tide drew ocean waves onto the shoreline, leaving heaps of sand on the prophetically named Ocean Drive. Then—in that viral video moment—the water gently pulled the house loose and set it to bob upon the sea. It was not the first house—this year! that day!—nor will it be the last.
