A program for thriving at Duke
What if your classes not only shaped the way you thought but also the way you lived? What Now? The Duke Guide to Happiness, Purpose & Well-Being offers seminars designed to help you develop the tools and capacities to thrive at Duke and beyond.
Research across multiple disciplines suggests that students—and working adults—perform best when they are authentically connected to their work and to the people around them. What Now? classes are an opportunity for every student to consider what drives them, to learn habits that may help them succeed, and to have fun along the way.
Each seminar is a discipline-specific window into how to be happy, purposeful, or well. Explore the philosophy or social science of happiness; think about the meaning of belonging through Spanish literature; or consider how we communicate while learning about global health. These offerings give insights into different academic disciplines, but they also provide lenses through which to consider some of the fundamental questions that face each of us: What makes you happy? Why are you (or any of us) here? How do you choose the right path for you? What Now? offers a space not only to begin to answer those questions, but to live better in the process.
Faculty Committee: Martin Smith, Dean of Academic Affairs, Trinity College (ex officio); Denise Comer (Writing); David Malone (Education); Michael Kliën (Dance)

89S Courses for Fall 2021
LIT 89S / ETHICS 89S / GSF 89S / SOCIOL 89S (CZ, SS, EI, STS)
What does it mean to behave badly? On what bases do we distinguish proper behavior from misconduct? This course will introduce students to the interrelated themes of deviance and propriety. We will consider this dichotomy not only from the standpoint of moral philosophy but also through the lenses of social theory, history of medicine, and political thought. Of particular importance for the course will be to understand how often misconduct involves the disruption of unspoken social norms rather than the explicit violation of laws or moral codes.
Professor: Nima Bassiri
GERMAN 89S / ETHICS 89S / LIT 89S (ALP, EI, CCI)
We hear a great deal, especially in educational contexts, about the need to become or to act like our “best selves.” But what does this turn of phrase actually imply? Are there really multiple versions of ourselves, from which we can be trained to choose? Are we always irreducibly multiple even when we are at our best and most true? And what might we learn, instead, by examining our other, worse selves? From the dictum “know thyself”—inscribed at the entrance to the oracle of Delphi, and hence also, at the origins of western thought—to the dictum “go on with your bad self”—appropriated into colloquial English from its roots in 20th century Black culture—the conundrum of selfhood has remained at the forefront of all attempts to imagine a better world. It is still alive and well today, in philosophy as in biology, in psychology as in AI. This course will investigate a broad swath of historical and contemporary forays into the realm of malfunctioning, multiple, mad, ecstatic, discontinuous, hybrid, or otherwise unself-like selves, from literature and film to philosophy and computer science, in an effort to probe the limits of what we can know, and learn, about ourselves.
Professor: Sarah Pourciau
ICS 89S / ARTSVIS 89S / EDUC 89S / ETHICS 89S / VMS 89S (ALP, EI, CCI)
How can drawing help us see, engage with, and even create community? This seminar requires no drawing experience; rather, it offers drawing as a way of thinking, something many of us lose after deciding “can’t draw.” We explore how graphic novelists, nature artists, mapmakers, and researchers use drawing to understand the lives of others, make sense of place and history, explore identities, and envision a better world: new relations between us and what we draw. Responding to works from around the globe, we draw in the classroom and beyond. The final project asks you to engage with Durham and show what “drawing community” means to you.
Professor: Adam Rosenblatt
EDUC 89S / ETHICS 89S (CZ, EI, STS)
How do communities, schools, and neighborhoods organize for social change? How do individuals organize their own commitments and energies to change themselves and the world around them? This course examines education as a component of collective liberation in the contemporary United States through themes of ethics, community organizing, and educational equity. It will introduce central philosophical and practical approaches to political organizing, help students develop skills in understanding and critiquing school segregation and resegregation in the US, and enable students to locate their own commitments, callings, and aptitudes within a variety of liberative accounts of social change.
Professor: Adam Hollowell
MATH 89S / ETHICS 89S (QS, STS)
What is democracy? Using preferential ballots in elections is a natural idea since it allows voters to express a 1st choice, a 2nd choice, a 3rd choice, etc. on each ballot, thereby collecting more information from each voter and creating the potential for an outcome which better represents the voters. However, there are many ways to determine the winner of a preferential ballot election, and each “preferential ballot vote counting method” has its own game theory, both for the candidates and the voters, some better and some worse, and often very different from the game theory of the single vote ballot. In this course, we’ll use game theory and mathematics to study these questions.
Professor: Hubert Bray
GSF 89S / ETHICS 89S (CZ, SS, EI)
Some scientists contend that the Earth has entered a new geological age in which human actions and effects are the dominant force shaping the planet, a so-called “anthropocene.” Such a planet offers diminishing possibilities for other creatures to live beyond the influence of Homo sapiens. How do animals fit into human societies when human society is now so inescapable? Do animals still exert agency and shape how we live? And how can humans maintain ethical relationships to nonhuman critters? Can we share landscapes and ecosystems, much less an entire planet? This course explores these questions, surveying different approaches to the critical study of animals from the humanities as well as the natural, environmental, and social sciences. We will pursue these questions through scientific papers, philosophical essays, literature, films, and experiential learning activities.
Professor: Gabriel Rosenberg
ETHICS 89S / HISTORY / MUSIC 89S (CZ, EI)
“We’re like licorice. Not everybody likes licorice, but the people who like licorice really like licorice.” —Jerry Garcia
Few musical acts have ever reached the level of cultural awareness and impact as the Grateful Dead, and perhaps none has enjoyed such ardent devotion for so long. The story of the Grateful Dead offers a lens through which to view not only the tumult of the 1960s counterculture movement but also to understand broader political and historical forces in the United States. In other words, the Grateful Dead and their history and music will form the backbone for the class, but this will be used to shed light on social upheaval, identity and shared experience, how ideas endure, and the sometimes-murky search for collective meaning. Using a mix of scholarly and biographical accounts, this course will offer students a multidimensional and interdisciplinary examination of how ideas form, inspire, intimidate, and ultimately stand the test of time. We will also explore the significance of how ideas can go from the margins to the mainstream through notions of authenticity and cooptation.
Professor: Eric Mlyn
BIO 89S / ETHICS 89S (EI, NS)
Natural History of Civilization follows the example of “Guns Germs and Steel” in applying a natural science perspective to the study of human history. To understand human nature it may be important to recognize those elements of our cultures that are imposed on us by the principles of ecology and our interactions with the natural world. Mark Bertness has famously added cooperation and self-assembly to join the processes of competition and predation in shaping our civilization. Examples include the domestication of olives in regions where humans are lactose intolerant, and cooperation enforced by the once universal practice of public executions.
Professor: Cliff Cunningham
ENGLISH 89S / ETHICS 89S (ALP, CCI, EI)
How should a person be? Why, how, and for whom should we live? What do we owe our parents, and should such a sense of debt influence whether to become a parent oneself? How does one make the decision to have children, and are there situations when such an idea might not be morally defensible? In this seminar, we will read and discuss novels, memoirs, poems and art that “come out of one’s own burning” – as Friedrich Nietzsche might say – that is, from one’s own life experiences and the precious little wisdom they yield. These are books about parents, children, and the bonds that connect them; about the difficulties of responsible love and the intimate tug-of-war between what we owe ourselves and what we might owe others; about the fraught choice of staying true to oneself, about the awkwardness of certain familial conversations, about fears and doubts acknowledged candidly or passed over in silence. Why is becoming a parent so intimately tied to vulnerability and the awareness of finitude? Can time, or perhaps art, redeem loss?
Professor: Corina Stan
ETHICS 89S / PUBPOL 89S (CZ, EI, STS)
Privacy matters in our everyday lives – whether we are online, using social media, at home or out in public; when we are communicating, protesting, working, learning, dealing with a pandemic, and interacting with others in a spectrum of social and political contexts. In this class, we will explore various dimensions of privacy – control over personal information, confidentiality, dignity and respect, autonomy, practical obscurity, anonymity, secrecy, solitude, trust, the right to be let alone, intimacy, intellectual privacy, and freedom from surveillance. We will study privacy as an individual interest and as a social value. Privacy matters – even if you think you have nothing to hide.
Professor: Jolynn Dellinger
PHIL 89S / ETHICS 89S (CZ, EI)
The core disciplines in universities have historically devoted themselves to the study of ‘serious’ things: the origins and nature of the physical universe, the structure of the human mind and the explanation of behavior, the history of civilizations and the foundations of law, the regulation of the economy, the question of the existence of deities, and myriad questions about, literally, life and death. Even when scholars enquired about leisure activities, they tended to focus on the serious ones: drama not humor, ballet not sports, classical music not folk or improvised music, harmony not rhythm, games for childhood development not for fun. In short, until very recently, serious enquiry has almost always looked down on anything involving play or playfulness. This course, in contrast, will be a serious enquiry into the nature and value of play, playfulness, games, sports, humor, magic, and the things that make popular culture pop. As a serious enquiry, the course will also serve as an introduction to philosophical analysis, logical argumentation, critical reasoning, and scientific method. Readings will range from the works of Greek and Chinese philosophers in the 4th and 5th centuries BCE, to Netflix stand-up comedy specials, and the latest theories of neuroscientists, cognitive psychologists, and video-game designers.
Professor: Wayne Norman
GLHLTH 89S / ETHICS 89S (CZ, CCI, EI)
“When I go to see my diabetes doctor, I feel that he and I are singing the same song.” This comment from a South African man battling chronic illness underlines the wonderful potential of the patient-provider relationship. We will be using the doctor-patient relationship and experience as a lens to understand place of illness and empathy in the human. We will explore concepts of culture and global health. How does culture affect all of us? What is global health, and how do our beliefs affect this entire discipline? Along the way, we will all be learning about ourselves, how it feels to express and receive empathy, and how the simple act of being curious make us better people.

Writing 101 Courses for Fall 2021
Offered at 2 different times:
TTH 10:15AM – 11:30PM (WRITING 101.04)
WF 12:00PM – 1:15PM (WRITING 101.05)
In the 1980s, biologist E.O. Wilson popularized the concept of “biophilia,” that humans have an innate desire to connect with the living world. Yet, 60% of the global population now lives in urban areas, and a recent Pew survey found that 31% of U.S. adults report being online “almost constantly.” It’s clear that humans are increasingly disconnected from our biophilic nature, and that shift is impacting our health and wellbeing. Rates of anxiety and depression are on the rise, particularly among urbanites. Doctors are now prescribing a daily dose of nature to treat high blood pressure, and people are turning to the Japanese practice of shinrin-yoku, or “forest bathing,” to de-stress and recharge. The concept of biophilia has also extended to urban planning as initiatives like rooftop gardens, bird-friendly building design, and green beltways seek to reconnect humans with nature and increase biodiversity.
In this course, we will use seminar-based discussions, research, and writing projects to examine the evidence for purported health and wellness benefits of nature and explore the challenges of designing and living in biophilic cities. Our course materials will come from environmental science, urban planning, psychology, and conservation journals, popular magazines and books, and documentaries. In your final project, you will work collaboratively to propose a greening initiative that seeks to integrate nature into an urban space of your choosing. Throughout the semester, you will also take part in a fundamental element of academic writing, reading each other’s work and providing feedback for revisions. And of course, we will get our nature fix by holding class outside as much as possible and taking field trips to local natural spaces like the Duke Gardens.

TTH 3:30PM – 4:45PM WRITING 101.10)
College is one of the many turning points in your coming of age. It is a time when you separate from your family of origin, and thus are in a unique position to be able to reflect on your identity. The questions—“Who am I?”, “Who do I want to be?”, & “What do I want?”—are often daily challenges as you navigate being more independent and living a good life. Together, we will use the field of educational psychology to explore your personal and academic identity development, especially in relation to your happiness. In particular, we will reflect on emerging adulthood & student development theories, as well as scientific research on happiness, to help us understand how various factors—such as gender, socioeconomics, race, ethnicity, religion, and culture – shape the development of your authentic self.
By using a variety of texts, videos, observations and interviews about coming of age and happiness, we will engage with the work of others, learn to articulate a position, and situate our writing within specific contexts. To begin, we will read, discuss, and write about our classroom treaty and student learning and other identity profiles using both our personal experiences and existing theories on coming of age and happiness (2-3 pages). Informed by these theories, we will engage in case study research, which involves in-depth descriptive and analytical writing.
The final project will be an exploration in the form of an in-depth personal narrative & analysis of some issue(s) significant to your coming of age and happiness (10-15 pages). The topic, and the related additional readings, will be carefully chosen by you so that each personal narrative will be relevant & meaningful as you continue your coming of age journey at Duke. Throughout the course, we will write self and peer evaluations (2 pages) of our academic writing, and thus collaboratively strengthen our ability to improve our works in progress.
If you are interested and willing to learn about yourself & others through personal writing, discussions, and readings, then this W101 class might be a great fit for you.

WF 3:30PM – 4:45PM (WRITING 101.24)
By examining intersections among criminology, feminism, and activism, we will explore the following questions: How is feminism understood in the U.S. and beyond? How do women across cultures remain subversive under oppression and despite criminalized acts of dissent? How is feminism constructed within criminology and vice versa? How do various feminist movements function rhetorically within these constructs? To respond to these questions, we will read, watch, listen to, and analyze a variety of texts (e.g. book chapters, journal articles, editorials, documentaries, websites/social media posts, and podcasts), and produce texts such as personal and academic essays, research-based business documents, and multimedia. The nature of the course, then, demands fluidity between cognitive and emotional experiences of social justice issues. To mediate this fluidity, the course incorporates mindfulness-based practices such as guided meditation, grounding, and reflective writing. Moreover, this course involves a partnership with InStepp, Inc. via service-learning, and a partnership with Kenan Institute for Ethics via the “What Now?” program.
In sum, students will learn to identify, articulate, and reflect on the rhetorical choices informing any text; analyze and develop their own arguments from multiple points of view; articulate and support their positions with research in a variety of forms; respond critically and ethically to others’ ideas; adjust their writing for multiple audiences, purposes, and contexts; and develop prose that is thoughtful, organized, exact in diction, and structured in a clear manner.
Students will practice the above skills in homework assignments, individual conferences, and collaborative workshops. In addition, students will take up this work in the following major assignments:
Personal Ideology Essay (4-5 pages)—Students will consider and write about their subject positions, theoretical questions about service learning and activism, and social structures as they may influence students’ work, thoughts, and feelings throughout the course.
Artifact Analysis (5-6 pages)—Students will choose and analyze an artifact related to activism and/or criminal justice (a gif or meme, poster, photograph, building, website, historical record, physical object, etc.)
Service-learning projects—Students will conduct research on the current role of the North Carolina Department of Safety and our local jail systems in ensuring the successful reentry of formerly incarcerated women into Durham, Wake, and Orange counties. Students will create a written report of their findings to be submitted to our community partner, InStepp, Inc. Students will also produce a marketing video for InStepp.
Self-Assessment (appox. 3 pages)—Students will produce a brief narrative detailing their experiences with the course and how they will or might transfer what they learned in WRT 101 to other contexts.

In the first trailer for season 4 of Netflix’s hit-series The Crown, the narrator ominously intones, “Here is the stuff of which fairy tales are made: a prince and princess on their wedding day. But fairy-tales usually end at this point, with the simple phrase, ‘they lived happily ever after.’” Accompanied by a series of glimpses of the show’s Prince Charles and Princess Diana, the irony of the voice-over lands hard: we know how this fairy tale ends, and it is not happily.
And yet it is only the benefit of hindsight that afford us this knowledge: in July of 1981, the media spun the Royal Wedding between the Prince of Wales and the People’s Princess as a fitting end to a whirlwind, fairy-tale romance. But the key phrase here is “the media spun”: that is, the wedding (and the relationship) was marketed and sold as the stuff dreams were made of. After all, aren’t we conditioned, from years of watching idealized relationships play out in romantic comedies, to want exactly this? A handsome prince to ride in on his white horse and sweep the beautiful maiden off her feet? To ride off into the sunset and live happily ever after?
This course, then, proposes to investigate Disney’s role in the construction and perpetuation of the Happily Ever After. What does the media, and specifically Disney, tell us a Happily Ever After looks like? Who gets to be happy? Who doesn’t? How can we differentiate between what we truly desire and what the media conditions us to want?
We’ll explore the answers to these questions through in-class discussion and weekly writing assignments. These will (tentatively) occur through: (1) annotating selected scholarly readings using Hypothes.is; (2) discussing those readings and Disney films in seminars; (3) creating and maintaining a course blog to explore your thoughts in a low-stakes, online environment (~500 words); and (4) the development of a capstone project on a Disney film of your choice (~2500 words), which will take us through the stages of writing, from proposal to revision. We will start by discussing ideas of happiness in general, using Pixar’s Inside Out (2015) and Soul (2020) as touchstones. We will then turn to Disney’s predecessors: the literary fairy tales of Charles Perrault, the Brothers Grimm, and Hans Christian Andersen, exploring how “fairy tale endings” were initially constructed. We will then shift to an examination of several key Disney animated films, which may include: Snow White and the Seven Dwarves (1937), Peter Pan (1950), The Little Mermaid (1989), The Princess and the Frog (2009) and Frozen (2013). To return to the trailer for The Crown, we will attempt to see that “happily ever after” is not “the place of arrival, but the place where the adventure really begins.”
This course is best suited for those who are interested in the intersection of media studies with critical analysis of race, gender, sexuality and identity. Do not be fooled by appearances: this course is not just watching Disney movies. You will be expected to critically engage with the texts, both visual and written. Prior knowledge of the Disney canon is not required, but is strongly encouraged.
Professor: Lisa Andres
WF 12:00PM – 1:15PM (WRITING 101.06)
Insects are largely responsible for making the world work. World-renowned entomologist and writer E.O. Wilson once surmised that “the world would go on with little change” were humans to disappear form the planet. However, the disappearance of invertebrates, especially insects, would change the world drastically. In this course we will learn about the many ways in which insects contribute to our well-being, our ecosystems, and our economies. In addition to reading broad works about insects, we will read several scientific journal articles about world-wide insect biomass decline, an area of concern for many conservationists, who worry a loss of insects means a loss of the ecosystem services that insects provide. You will learn how to critically read and evaluate research articles, digest rebuttals of research articles, form well-reasoned opinions about articles, and write reflections in the form of a short essay (750-1000 words) and an op-ed (750-1000 words). For the op-ed assignment, you will evaluate, critique, and give feedback on the op-eds of your peers, and we will vote as a class on one op-ed to submit to a local news outlet of the student’s choosing. Submission of the chosen op-ed to a news outlet is optional, not mandatory. These readings and assignments will highlight how scientific discourse advances science, give you the skills to be a part of the discourse in a future scientific career, and help you communicate science to a broad audience. As a part of a larger project in the course you will research an insect-related issue of your choice, construct a short proposal outlining your chosen topic (750-1000 words), compile a short literature review (1500-2000 words), and write a well-informed policy memo (2000+ words) to a local elected official or leader in your community outlining potential solutions. You will have the option, if you choose, to share your policy memo with your local elected official. You will also do a short presentation connected to your policy memo at the end of the semester. From this course you will learn valuable skills in how to dissect and evaluate research articles in scientific disciplines, specifically in entomology, conservation biology, and ecology, articulate a position in response to primary literature, and communicate and write about science to different kinds of audiences, including the general public, scientific peers, and policy makers. The skills you learn in this course can be applied broadly across disciplines, and will enable you to communicate research in science and beyond to readers who are not experts in a specific research field. Throughout the semester you will receive feedback from either the instructor or peers on all assignments before you submit final drafts.

Investing in the cryptocurrency
market can take many shapes and forms. Popular cryptocurrencies include Bitcoin
, and Cardano
, while other investments include mining crypto and buying shares of companies working on blockchain technology
. But the crypto world is frequently changing with new ways to invest popping up often. Cryptocurrencies are, after all, a new asset class. So it’s bound to have a lot of development and change going on.
In this article, you’ll learn all the different ways you can invest in crypto so you can pick the types of crypto that work best for your investment portfolio.
Directly buying coins on an exchange is the most common way to invest in crypto. It is also one of the simplest ones. You pick an exchange you like, create an account there, transfer some money, and buy your favorite coins.
That’s how it works on centralized exchanges. But that’s not the only type of exchange, there are also decentralized and peer-to-peer exchanges. So, let’s go into each of them.
A centralized exchange (CEX) works like traditional investment brokers and stock markets. Users transfer money to the exchange, and it is credited to their account so they can trade. The exchange is in control of all the transactions and the private keys for the hardware wallets
where the cryptocurrencies are stored.
The daily volume of transactions on CEXes reaches tens of billions of dollars, and because of the ease of use, it is one of the preferred methods to buy crypto.
A few of the exchanges operating in the United States:
A decentralized exchange (DEX) is one of the big innovations made possible because of blockchain technology. It creates a trustless environment, where users trade directly with each other. These trades happen on the blockchain, with the help of a protocol and smart contracts. This way, a decentralized exchange does not hold a user’s funds, and the user does not have to trust an intermediary. Besides security, privacy is another advantage, since there’s no need to provide personal information to create an account.
The traded volume on DEXes is generally lower than on CEXes since a user has to already own cryptocurrency bought somewhere else and DEXes require higher technological affinity to understand and use them.
A peer-to-peer (P2P) exchange is similar to a DEX because a user trades directly with another user. The difference is that there’s no coded protocol or smart contract
on the blockchain. A user gets in contact with another user over a platform or website, and they decide on the terms of the trade. Some of these P2P exchange trades also take place in person, especially if they don’t want to leave traces on the traditional banking system.
P2P exchanges are more common in countries where there is less trust in the government, or where crypto is banned. It’s also a method people found to keep their savings safe from high inflation.
Over-the-counter (OTC) trading takes place off of exchanges. In an OTC trade, the parties involved trade directly with each other. No one else knows about the price and volume traded besides the parties involved. It is mainly used for big orders which would be too disruptive if placed on normal exchanges.
Investment brokers, besides offering their traditional financial products like enabling their clients to purchase stock, bonds, and other securities, have recently picked cryptocurrencies as an additional offering.
So, if you already have an account with an investment broker, it is an easy way to purchase crypto directly or invest in crypto futures. Just be aware that most of them don’t allow you to withdraw your coins. You’d have to sell your crypto or your futures and withdraw in dollars. Also, they usually only offer mainstream cryptocurrencies. You won’t find smaller altcoins here.
A few of the investment brokers who offer crypto:
Cryptocurrency ATMs are a very convenient way to buy crypto using bank cards or cash. There are over 15,000 ATMs just in the United States alone, according to Coin ATM Radar. They often differ from each other, as they belong to many different operators. You might need a government-issued ID to buy crypto on some ATMs. And while some only allow you to buy crypto, on others you can buy and sell.
Payment providers like Paypal, Square, and BitPay are also jumping on the crypto bandwagon. Customers can buy and sell cryptocurrencies on their platforms. Most payment providers don’t let you withdraw them though, so you’ll have to convert your coins to cash before withdrawing or transferring. Still, it’s one of the simplest and easiest ways to get exposure to crypto if you already have an account with them.
In traditional finance, companies can raise capital through an initial public offering (IPO). Company shares are sold to institutional and retail investors and then listed on an exchange like the New York Stock Exchange or Nasdaq.
Projects can similarly raise funds in the crypto space. They raise money, often in the form of Bitcoin
(BTC) or ether
(ETH), from investors and then later distribute the coins and tokens. Over the last couple of years, three main methods to do an initial offering have emerged.
Initial Coin Offering
Initial coin offerings (ICOs) were all the craze in 2017, especially on the Ethereum blockchain. Billions of dollars were raised through them. Projects would launch a website where people could register for the ICO with their personal information and wallet address. Then they’d send ETH or BTC to the project’s digital wallet, and the smart contract
would, in turn, send them their new tokens. Once they got their tokens, they could deposit the tokens on a CEX or a DEX and trade it there.
Today, the ICO market has cooled off considerably. Nevertheless, some projects still prefer to launch using an ICO, and it is a valid method to invest in crypto.
Initial Exchange Offering
An initial exchange offering (IEO) is very similar to an ICO. The difference lies in who manages the offering. Instead of the project team doing it on their own, they partner with an exchange. Then, the exchange does the offering on their website. It adds trust and ease to the process since buyers often already have an account with funds on the exchange.
Initial DEX Offering
Initial DEX offerings (IDOs) have recently picked up in popularity and it is becoming the preferred method to raise capital in decentralized finance (DeFi). Instead of paying a fee for a CEX to create the offering and launch the token, it is launched directly on a DEX. And because it is a DEX, there are no restrictions on who, when and from where can buy the tokens.
One way to get exposure to Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies without straight out buying and holding it is to invest in companies that provide services to the crypto space or hold coins themselves. Investing in company stock is much easier and likely safer than investing in a digital currency.
and MicroStrategy made headlines and bought billions of dollars worth of Bitcoin. Nvidia and AMD manufacture GPUs used for mining crypto. Visa has recently started settling payments in USDC, a Stablecoin on the Ethereum blockchain. Riot blockchain is a Bitcoin mining company. Salesforce has created its own blockchain. Companies like Google, IBM, Amazon
, and SAP have all invested in blockchain technology. These companies and many others are involved in blockchain and cryptocurrencies. But they’re involved to varying degrees, so the best pick depends on what you’re looking for.
The stock of a company like Microsoft, which has dozens of revenue streams and has a market capitalization of over a trillion dollars, will be much more stable than that of a small company where 100% of its revenue comes from mining Bitcoin.
Investors looking to invest in Bitcoin through the capital markets can do so through investing in funds. Holding a fund with exposure to cryptocurrencies can reduce volatility. You also don’t have to worry about exchanging from fiat currencies into a cryptocurrency or maintaining a digital wallet.
Right now, there are a few players that are creating Bitcoin trusts, the best known being Grayscale’s Bitcoin Trust (GBTC). GBTC is a fund that does hold Bitcoin. However, GBTC’s 2% management fee is much higher than you'll pay for the typical index fund or even an actively managed mutual fund.
And, people could also invest in funds that have exposure to cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology. These funds invest in companies involved in developing and using blockchain technology.
The three largest blockchain ETFs are:
- Amplify Transformation Data Sharing ETF
- Reality Shares Nasdaq NexGen Economy ETF
- First Trust Index Innovative Transaction & Process ETF
While there is no Bitcoin ETF, it is becoming more likely that the Securities and Exchange Commission will approve one soon. Canada and other countries have already approved Bitcoin ETFs.
are all the rage right now. Big chains like Taco Bell have launched their own. Celebrities are partnering with platforms to create NFTs. Tweets and JPEGs are being sold for millions.
If you’re an artist or have other ideas you can sell as NFTs, it could be a way to invest in crypto since you’ll most likely get paid in cryptocurrency. Most NFT platforms and marketplaces are based on top of the Ethereum blockchain, and the sales are settled in ether. You can turn your drawing, song, or meme into crypto.
Mining is how it all started with Bitcoin back in 2009. Bitcoin is a proof-of-work blockchain, meaning it takes computational power to secure the network. And as a reward for spending computational resources, miners get Bitcoin. By mining, you can earn cryptocurrency without having to put down money for it. Well, besides the cost of the hardware and electricity.
So, if you want to mine cryptocurrencies like BTC, ETH, Monero, and others, you’d first have to buy the necessary hardware, which can be different depending on what you’ll mine. For Bitcoin, you’re looking at specialized processing units called ASICS, and for Ethereum you’ll need GPUs. Unfortunately, both are often sold out worldwide because of the recent rise in Bitcoin prices we’ve seen, along with other cryptos. Then, the next important factor to determine your profitability is going to be how much you pay for electricity. Free electricity is ideal. A couple of cents per KWh is acceptable. And over 10 cents per KWh, like in European countries, makes it unprofitable to mine cryptocurrencies.
Cryptocurrency lending works by connecting borrowers to lenders via an online platform. You can lend your digital assets through crypto exchanges or different lending sites with an interest rate. The interest rate is frequently between 2% and 14% APY, much higher than in traditional banking. The downsides are the volatility and the risk of the platform you’ve put your digital assets having problems like getting hacked.
Trading on a centralized exchange is done through order books. On a decentralized exchange, there are no order books. Trading is done through liquidity pools. A liquidity pool is a collection of funds locked in a smart contract and used to facilitate decentralized trading. When you place an order, you’re effectively trading with the liquidity pool. And for stocking this liquidity pool with coins on both sides of the trade, users are rewarded with a small percentage of the trading volume as a fee. This is called liquidity mining.
Not clear? Imagine you have ETH, and you want to trade it for some UNI, the token from the decentralized exchange Uniswap. There’s a smart contract on the Ethereum blockchain, which provides this trading pair. And inside this smart contract, there’s a liquidity pool filled with thousands of ETH and UNI. This ETH and UNI were put there by other users. And as a reward for them doing this, they get to keep a small percentage of the transaction volume. So, essentially, he is passively earning crypto.
There are more implications to this, especially if the value of the coins in the pool, ETH and UNI, fluctuate. This can lead to something called impermanent loss, but this is a complex topic for another day.
We’ve talked about how through mining proof-of-work blockchains are kept secure using computational power. An alternative to proof-of-work is called proof-of-stake
, where instead of using computational resources, those keeping the network secure do so by staking crypto they own to validate the transactions in the blockchain. They lock their crypto with the blockchain to keep it secure by being validators, deciding which transactions are valid and should go through. As a reward, they receive a small amount of crypto.
The bottom line
There are many ways to invest in digital assets. You can buy them directly, invest in funds, or even create and sell your own NFTs. The path you choose depends on your preferences, your goals, and your risk tolerance.
Like any other investments, do your homework before investing. Beware of scams and opportunities that look too good to be true. Understand what you are investing in as well as the risks and returns. This is an asset class with high volatility. And the golden rule is to only invest what you can afford to lose.

This week’s entries: |
Turning down Costco was one of the toughest decisions Gail Becker had to make in the course of building her company. But as a savvy entrepreneur, she knew it had to be done.
Becker is the CEO of Los Angeles-based Caulipower, which has booked a reported $100 million in annual revenue selling buzzy better-for-you products like cauliflower-breaded chicken tenders, sweet potato sliced toasts, and cauliflower-based tortillas. Like many founders, Becker started the company out of frustration: specifically, with how long it took to make a homemade cauliflower pizza crust for her two sons, both of whom were diagnosed at a young age with celiac disease, where eating gluten causes inflammation in the body. Spurred by the death of her father, which she says made her realize she wanted to have a larger impact on the world, she quit a prestigious job in public relations to bring her frozen cauliflower-crust pizza to market.
Caulipower began selling pizzas in February 2017. By January 2020, it had sold 36 million. But that success may never have happened had Becker agreed to a deal with Costco to stock her pizzas back in the company’s early days, Where most entrepreneurs would have leapt at the opportunity, she knew her small company wasn’t ready to meet the demand. A misstep like that would have burned its bridge with the retailer. “One of the keys to being an entrepreneur is knowing what rules you’re going to follow and then knowing which rules you’re going to break, because you’ve got do a little bit of both,” she said in an Inc. Your Next Move interview on December 11.
Here’s Becker’s advice on how to break the right rules, ace the dance with venture capitalists, and manage your company during an unprecedented crisis.
Follow your customers’ rules
The company’s “big break” was getting into 30 Whole Foods in Southern California in February 2017, but Walmart was the first retailer to take the pizza nationwide later that year. Everyone said it was a gamble to make a deal with the retailer, but in this instance Becker knew her mission was too important to pass it up. “I knew I really couldn’t have an impact, unless I was going to be in Walmart,” she says. “My whole reason for starting the business in the first place [was] I wanted nutrition to be accessible for all in every sense of the word.”
The same sense of sticking to mission and roots was relevant when it came time to expand the company’s product offerings. The conventional wisdom would have been to stick solely with pizza and make a hundred different versions. But the company decided to wait for consumers and retailers to say they wanted more. “We took our cues from the people who matter to us most,” she says.
Dealing with investors
Money is cheap these days, Becker says, but it takes a bit of finesse to raise “smart money”–meaning, capital from investors who can steer you away from common mistakes. To that end, she only pitched Caulipower to VCs who focused on food companies. Her one regret? Not starting earlier. Becker only began the process when the company ran out of money, one month before its launch in Walmart. “I would counsel anyone to not wait as long as I did,” she says.
While it’s vital to convince potential investors of your passion and give them as much data as you can, Becker says, she had more of the former than the latter when the company was new. What clicked was finding VCs who shared her vision–and who were willing to make a bet on her.
She learned an important lesson from the experience: Stick with the people who believe in you early. When it came time to raise money for her second round of venture capital, she relied on those same investors, even though many of the ones who rejected her the first time were “throwing money” at the company. “When you’re an entrepreneur, early belief and early trust means everything,” she says.
During the pandemic, Becker says, Caulipower raced to keep up with increased demand at grocery stores and adapt its supply chain. Her advice to other business owners experiencing similar issues is to tell your story to more people than you think you need to–buyers, brokers, and retailers alike. “Make them part of your journey,” she says. Back when Caulipower was smaller, Becker says, those bonds were a huge help.
It’s obviously an important time to consider how you relate to your team, too. Since the first day of lockdown, Becker says, she has sent her entire staff an evening email with something inspirational like an employee innovation, a funny meme, or a note about the product from customers. “It makes people remember they’re still part of the team,” she says. “Even if they’re alone at home, they really are part of a team with a much larger mission.” |
Amongst all the discuss of the 2020 election, it’s straightforward to neglect every thing that led as much as Donald Trump profitable the presidency in 2016. But should you preserve your eyes shut and focus you would possibly bear in mind a number of issues: heated debates between Trump and Hillary Clinton, a chaotic Twitter panorama, and an in any other case cute frog that turned the mascot of internet-savvy 4chan customers who had been making an attempt to meme Trump into the presidency.
Back in 2016, Pepe the Frog was added to the Anti-Defamation League’s database of hate symbols. But earlier than that, he was simply part of a layabout group of mates in Matt Furie’s comedian collection Boy’s Club. He was by no means meant for something however an excellent time. But when the web obtained ahold of him, he turned a face of the NEET 4chan lots and in the end a logo of the so-called alt-right.
The documentary Feels Good Man, which is at the moment out there on PBS and a number of other streaming companies, traces that journey. It additionally chronicles how Furie, a mild-mannered San Francisco artist, tried to reclaim Pepe and switch him again into a logo of affection. It’s a formidable job, however maybe not inconceivable. As filmmakers Arthur Jones and Giorgio Angelini present of their doc, Pepe really turned a image of resistance to authoritarian rule throughout the protests in Hong Kong simply final 12 months.
In this week’s episode of the Get WIRED podcast, senior editor Angela Watercutter talks to Jones and Angelini about the journey they went on with the creator of Pepe—and what the little inexperienced frog means now.

Kaori - Amsterdam25€
Trusted teacher: It would be a great pleasure to share my language and culture with you! The classes are semi-structured and can be scheduled flexibly, depending how you would like to study. The aim of the class is to be able to speak and understand the language in an intuitive manner. In the lessons we therefore mainly focus on conversational training. I also provide some (home) excises and practice it together. We can focus on different aspects of Japanese - both language and culture -depending on your preference. Culture is important because in Japanese, the way how you speak is just as important as what you actually say. During the lesson we will handle a variety of subjects, practice vocabulary and pronunciation as well as deal with both intermediate and advanced issues with grammar and expressions in an interactive and engaging way. Along the way I hope you will come to like Japan even more than before! 一緒に頑張りましょう！

Akos - Rotterdam, Netherlands35€
Trusted teacher: Whatever your Japanese level, whatever your goals with learning, I am more than sure we can achieve them together. For example: - Are you planning to take a JLPT exam anywhere from N5 to N1? - Need a quick brush-up for your job or scholarship interview? - Upcoming trip to Japan and you wish you could break the ice with locals in their language? - Do you want to understand what they are talking about in your favourite TV show without subtitles? - Or… you simply fell in love with this incredible language and want to start learning it from scratch in a structured way? If you answered yes to any of the above questions, then you can already rest assured that you have found the right tutor. On top of these, the range of possible directions our classes can take is even broader: I can introduce you to Japanese interpretation prepping, help you to improve your understanding of written Japanese in a more structured way, or if you’re a kanji nerd like I am, talk about their history for hours. I have been a Japanologist *slash* lover-of-all-things-Japanese for more than 14 years and as such I am familiar with a very broad range of linguistic and cultural layers of the country (oh, and if there is one that I am not, then I will most definitely be more than happy to look into it). So do not hesitate to leave a message if you want to learn with me.
Amandine - Dijon, France27€
Trusted teacher: My name is Amandine and I am a beginner Japanese teacher, specializing in the linguistic preparation of travel for 16-30 year olds. It has been 12 years since I returned from my stay in Japan. Over the years and feedback from my students, I have established a methodology and practical tools according to the objective of each: - To deepen the knowledge of the Japanese culture. - Acquire language bases in preparation for a trip (business / sabbatical year). - Prepare for exams (BAC, JLPT). - Analyze your mistakes to improve your results. - Improve your oral expression. - Advise on the steps to be taken / followed in relation to your project. Basically, I was not a student particularly gifted for foreign languages! I would have to wait until high school to trigger a keen need to get my dream: go to Japan! After high school, I did not study at all to be a teacher, translator or performer! * So why do I continue to devote my time to private lessons? * It all started with Marine looking for a host family to host Yuka for 3 months! A year later, I leave in exchange student in Japan living in immersion exclusively in host families, this is how: - I was admitted to the famous Kokugakuin High School. - I visited Tokyo, Kyoto and Niigata. - I became "ambassador" of France. - I won the 3rd place in the "speech contest" in Japanese, just behind the Thai and Taiwanese, facing 8 foreign students of all nationalities in long stay, just like me. On my return, I spent the JLPT N3 to certify my level by the Japanese institution! I really want to share this passion for those who have a crush on the land of the Rising Sun! * Who is my course for? * To those who have a concrete project related to the Japanese language. Whether you're starting from scratch or having notions, I'm here to guide you and support you so that you gain autonomy and ease in the Japanese. * How is the first class going? * I take 30 minutes to 1 hour to learn to discover, together we see your goals, the time to reach them, the pace of learning that suits you and I test your level. It's a good time to ask all your questions! For those who take several courses with me, know that I make a review every 10 courses to validate and remain consistent with your goals. * And what about my methodology? * I have created and tested my method for 6 years. It is simple, tailor-made, accessible and fun! It is important to me that this corresponds to your personality, your needs, and your abilities. I had more than ten students of any profile that I followed between 2 months to 2 years in individual classes or in groups (up to 4 people). I am thinking in particular of: - Jérôme, 17 years old, who obtained an excellent grade (17/20) in LV3 in oral Japanese to be able to enter the University of Lille 3. - Jean-Claude, 50, who wanted to start a business in Japan and who won his JLPT N4 after continuous efforts. - Pierre, 25, who came to find me to get an internship in architecture company in Osaka and managed to get it. - Romain (27 years old) and Maëva (26 years old) who go off as a couple in PVT in 2018! They came to find me, challenged me and gave me their trust and I am grateful! * What does my rate include? * I do not apply a fee based on the student's level or because I have a degree. Foreign languages cost with a native between 30-40 € per hour. My course is really complete and unique, sincerely you will not find courses like mine and I say it with a lot of humility! In a class you can see grammar, vocabulary, exercises, speaking, listening, etc. In addition I create the media, it takes me time because it's tailor-made! Finally my class does not stop at class! That is to say that I stay in touch with you, I have already helped one of my students at a distance when he was in Japan and I do it heartily without asking you to take out your CB ;) I do not charge travel expenses. Either I give lessons at home or I give classes at the student if it is served by means of transport and I do not put more than 30 minutes in! So far none of my students have failed me, an unforeseen happens, just prevent! Same for delays! In short, I base my relationships on communication, respect and trust and so far it has been successful;) And you ? Do you want to reach your dreams? In this case, book a class! In the meantime, I'm curious to know more about my future sparks: - Do you have a project that is important to you and that the Japanese need? - What is causing you the most difficulty? Memorization? Writing ? Speaking out ? I answer all the questions! I am convinced that one can learn and obtain results through constant effort, pedagogy, benevolence and pleasure! Amandine 愛 満 多 よ り

We have ourselves another Tic Tac Toe fail at an NBA game
Tic Tac Toe, like long division and using your turn signal, is a dying in art in this great nation. Now we have Fortnite and Candy Crush, third-string Chiefs running backs to grab on the waiver wire and pizza orders to scream at Alexa. There's no time in this hectic modern life for Xs and Os, a fact made painfully clear at halftime of Wednesday night's Pacers game, when two humble rocket scientists played perhaps the single most inept game in Tic Tac Toe human history. SURGEON GENERAL'S WARNING: You IQ will drop 50 points just watching this.
Truly, utterly miraculous. Each player snatches defeat from the jaws of victory at least twice over the course this minute-long plunge to the depths of human intellect, demonstrating zero understanding of the game Tic Tac Toe and, for that matter, basic arithmetic. You know that "hold my beer" meme? Yeah, this is that made sentient:
Adding to the mind-numbing absurdity of this whole thing, is that IT'S NOT EVEN THE FIRST TIME IT'S HAPPENED. In February, two Trailblazers fans also mentally imploded in the middle of a giant Tic Tac Toe game, leaving an entire arena wondering what on this great, green earth they had just witnessed. Less than a year later, here we are, doing it all again.
If you think these idiots we're embarrassed, however, just imagine what it must have felt like to be their wives, watching at home through laced fingers thinking "THAT LOOKS LIKE...OH GOD, IT'S JIM." But rest easy, better halves of America. At least you know that you'll never lose a game of Connect Four again. |

Very interesting concept ! If you want fast games, just play noz and if opponent agrees ( plays noz themselves ) . And you cant be forced into blitz mode if you dont want it like with the old noz. I will definitely try this one out when it releases,
What does that say about people who do rope? players like Trump would be laughing at this card. I doubt it's gonna see much if any play. Where would this card fit in anyways? Control wouldn't even play this because they too need (x) amount of time in their turns. Most cases it's just a 7 mana 8/8 which in today's HS isn't good enough.
I love the design of this card, the people who want 15 seconds turns will finally be able to notice they are an extreme minority of this community and stop whining about it every year, while still be able to enjoy occasional encounters with other Nozdormu players.
I agree that 7 mana might be too slow but the point is to NOT make this card viable as a standalone, otherwise everyone will start playing it and negate the entire point of the card. So 6 mana maybe, not 5.
They should have made him more unfair / powerful rather than the Meme shite he is now, how about 9 Mana Battlecry: Set Opponent's Mana down by 2 Crystals, and make their Turns 15 Seconds until Nozdormu is killed.
If there was some good dragon synergy, it it had taunt or... something, I might actually consider it and enjoy the mirror matches. But that's all going to rotate anyway, and I won't add a 7 mana 8/8 just for stats to my deck (which it would otherwise be 99% of the time). |
WHAT IS ADDICTION
WHAT KIND OF ADDICTIONS
DO WE KNOW?
Paper presented at the AEGEE- congress "Addiction and its place in society", Eindhoven University of Technology, 20-10-1994.
To answer the question "what is addiction?" we have first to look at the apparition of the notion of addiction in the past. This will show that addiction is a fairly recent connotation, although the use of especially alcohol and opium have a long history in the world. After studying the past notions regarding the use of alcohol and opium, we will consider the present notion from the viewpoints of pharmacologists and sociologists. From the sociologist's realm we will enter the lawyer's empire. Finally I will present my own views, based on the data presented.
In addition I have to explain my use of the word "drugs". While in english the word "drug" is used to denote substances that are being used as medicines, we use this word in dutch virtually only in the sense of illegal luxuries, varying from heroin to Cannabis, although the insight is increasing that alcohol and nicotine as well as coffee are drugs as well, if only legal. as they are used as luxuries instead of medicines. This results in remarkable semantics: morphine prescribed by a doctor is 'medicijn', (dutch for medicine), while the same substance obtained from a dealer is a drug. The moment I see a drugstore in an anglo-saxon country, I experience a subtle kind of cognitive dissociation, which can only be compared with the ones anglo-saxons will experience when seeing a dutch "coffee-shop". You will observe that in the following I use the word drug as often in the anglo-saxon sense as in the dutch sense.
Fermented beverages are as old as humankind and the discovery of them is probably older than the discovery of agriculture. Probably fermented honey, mead, has been the first source of drinkable ethanol, and later on fermentation of grapes and dates was developed. The Bible tells us how Noah, after becoming a farmer cultivating a vineyard, ostensibly unfamiliar with the intoxicating properties of wine, drank to much and fell asleep naked in his tent1. It is remarkable that not his drunkenness but his nakedness was scandalous. In historic times the Pillar of Hammurabi dating from 1700 BC holds rules regarding the sale of wine2. Wine is an ever returning symbol of fortune and peace in the Bible, although mention is made of excessive use of alcohol3.
The Ancient Greeks drank mead, but learned to make wine from Dionysus, the god of the wine, son of Zeus and a Theban princes. He himself had learned the procedure in Egypt, where he fled to escape the wrath of a jealous Hera. This knowledge laid the basis for the Dionysian fertility rituals, according to tradition orgies characterized by excessive use of wine. However, the more appolinically inclined Plato describes in 'Symposion' excessive use of alcohol without any critical note.
The Romans too consumed alcohol in a fair measure. Cato the Elder recommended wine, be it in moderate amounts, moreover considered it of medicinal value against snakebite, both constipation and diarrhea, gout and a number of other, minor, complaints. Later on Petronius describes in his Cena Trimalchionis an orgy, not to be surpassed by the Bacchantic orgies.
Manifold as the references to alcohol may be, the number of references to the consequences of alcohol use are remarkably few. Galenus and Cassius Felix describe delirium tremens under the name "frenesis" as the result of wine-intoxication4. It was only in the eleventh century that for the first time a relation was observed between excessive use of alcohol and "inflammation of the liver". The notion "addiction" is completely absent!
The Germanic peoples drank mead and beer. Drinking bouts were proof of virility. The use of wine spread to the northern part of Europe with Christianity. Early Christians considered beer drinking as pagan, contrarily drinking wine was a sign of conversion. Is there any relation with the use of wine during Mass? Anyhow we observe wine having now the same meaning as with the ancient Greeks: a symbol of happiness, fortune, warmth and virility, being notions clearly older than christianity, based on humankind's need to escape from the daily treadmill of life5.
We have however to realise that in the Middle Ages and before the drinking of alcohol was a matter of course, an obvious part of nutricion. The notion of alcoholism and the resulting behaviour we have did not exist. Only when food is plentiful and varied, a new situation is created. Than, people go to the tavern, to drink for pleasure, while before alcohol was only used at home with the wife and children, as food. Now wife and children are not anymore to be included: "Tom Tipsay is joyful in remembrance of the bountie of his god Bacchus, but sorrowfull alas at his returne when first hee came within the viewe of his wife" writes Philip Foulface in 15936. In this way the notion of recreative use develops, opposing the use as nutricion. Recreative use is "use aiming to promote pleasure, happiness or euphoria in the user"7. It is only in this perspective of recreative use of alcohol that notions as "alcohol-abuse" can develop. As I already told you, alcoholism is a very recent notion.
We can as well make another distinction. We observed already Cato the Elder ascribing a medicinal value to alcohol. Apart form use as nutricion or luxury, we may distinguish "medical use". This can better be elucidated by considering the use of another centuries old drug: opium.
Excavation of the remnants of the neolithic Cortaillod-cultuur (3200-2600 BC), in Switserland have shown that at that time Papaver was already cultured, probably because of the nutricious value of the poppy-seeds that contain 45% oil. Without any doubt the light narcotic properties of this plant had been discovered8. The strong narcotic action of the milky juice that can be obtained by incising the ovary, that results in opium when dried, will have been discovered not much later. The writings of Theophrastus (3e century BC) are the first written account of the use of opium in the West. Arab physicians were well acquainted with the usefulness of the effects of opium and arab merchants introduced its use in the East. In Europe it was reintroduced by Paracelsus (1493-1541) and thus the english doctor Sydenham could write in 1680:
"Among the remedies which it has pleased Almighty God to give to man to relieve his sufferings, none is so universal and so efficacious as opium."
Clearly opium was used as medicine, however in an era where a regulated medical and/or pharmaceutical order did not exist at all. Opium could be produced, traded and consumed by everybody. Oral use of opium, either as tablets, but mostly as drink laudanum (tincture of opium) or paregoric (camphorated tinctura opii) was widespread, without being considered remarkable. In a time that effective medicines hardly existed opium was one of the very few medicines that worked, if not curative than at least palliative. It is not surprising that this "medical" use often was continued even if the direct cause for the use had disappeared. Opiuym relieved the worries of the daily life, not only of the lower class but of all classes. However it was the use among the lower classes that started to draw attention halfway the last century. Upper class people even started to talk about the stimulant use of opium, suggesting use for other aims than as a painkiller.
It was especially the arising medical order that in the framework of its professionalisation advocated the restriction of the availability of opium. "Medical use" had to implicate the physicians monopoly to prescibe and deliver opium. To reach the necessary change of attitude of the upper and middle classes in favour of their own position physicians introduced the notion of addiction, both with regard to alcohol and opium and its derivatives morphine and heroin. Addiction was defined as a disease and as such a condition under the unique competence of the medical order9,10,11. The fact that normally the incapability of doctors to cure a disease is considered a failure of the medical science, but in the case of the disease "addiction" this failure is ascribed to the failure of the morality and/or willpower of the patient, shows how illogical this view is.
The opposition of the opium sellers, basically all grocers, to such a monopoly was broken by the rising order of pharmacists, when they started to realise that the restriction of opiumsales to them was an excellent issue to serve their professionalisation. They threw in their lot with the doctors and that decided the issue: opium and its derivatives became substances that could only be used in a strictly medical framework to be decided by doctors, although the that time medical indications differed significantly from the present ones. I have only to remind you the use of heroin and cocain to "cure" morphine-addiction to show this. For an extensive documentation of this process of medicalisation for the cause of the medical and pharmaceutical orders, I refer you to the monumental study of Virginia Berridge en Griffith Edwards: Opium and the people12.
Thus we have observed how within the framework of our Western culture the notions of recreative versus medical use have developed. It is important to stress that this way the right to selfdetermination of the individual was violated: the physician would decide what was good for us. Later on I will return to this issue.
I must emphasize that this development has followed a "scientific" path. The doctors voicing these views were respectable, and moreover sincere practitioners of their profession. Isn't science an instrument by eminence to exert influence in power-struggles? I do not have to refer to extreme examples as the "science" of eugenics as the basis of the N�rnberger racist laws to make this clear. Stephen Jay Gould, the Harvard paleontologist, offers us in his many essays13 a wealth of simple examples of how, in this case especially biological, conceptions, at their time considered "scientific", were used, unconsciously, by their students, to influence decisions regarding power issues in their society. Let us thus now consider the notion of addiction in the light of the sciences. The word 'addiction' as it is commonly used leads there to confusion. The word is obviously too poorly defined to offer clarity. There are two approaches that seem to be able to bridge these differences in interpretation. The relevant keywords are: dependence and deviance belonging to the realms of psychopharmacology and sociology respectively.
Addiction in the light of psychopharmacology.
When we speak of addiction to drugs, we mean addiction to substances which have an effect on the human brain. When these substances are administered, they reach the brain by way of the blood, and influence there the stimulus transfer between nerve cells. Some psychopharmaca, e.g. the opiates, directly stimulate the nerve cell receptors as artificial neurotransmitters. Nerve cells are directly stimulated by the drug.
Much larger amounts of artificial neurotransmitters are used for artificial stimulation of the receptors than when a true neurotransmitter is released under influence of an action potential. With artificial stimulation the receptors are flooded. If this occurs only a few times or very occasionally, it is not a problem. However, if it happens often, the cells react by making more receptors, in order to be able to process this regularly returning flood. This, in turn, lowers the effect of the dose administered. This phenomenon is called tolerance: the user needs more and more of the substance to achieve the same effect.
In addition, when administration of the substance is stopped, the number of natural neurotransmitters is too small for the sharp rise in the number of receptors. The nerve cells have become used to the administration of large amounts of artificial neurotransmitters, the body has become used to the presence of the substance and can no longer function without it. It needs the substance. This is called physical dependence. Discontinuing administration, then, also brings on symptoms of illness, withdrawal symptoms, together called the abstinence syndrome. The abstinence syndrome has three characteristics:
- commencement within a definite time span of which the length is dependent on the duration of action of the relevant substance;
- the development of new symptoms during the abstinence syndrome; and
- the symptoms must disappear again after peaking.
The same outline can be applied to all other psychoactive substances whether they are legal such as alcohol and tobacco, semi-legal such as the tranquilizers and sleep-inducing drugs or illegal such as the substances we Dutch then suddenly classify as drugs. All these substances cause effects by interfering in one way or the other with the stimulus transfer mechanism between nerve cells. The different effects are due to the differences between the activity of the neurotransmitters involved and their different properties.
Both physical dependence and tolerance are characteristics that depend not so much on the individual in question, but lie in the nature of the substance.
Genetic factors can, however, influence the effect of the substance. A well known example of this is that women are less able to break down alcohol because the alcohol-inactivating enzyme alcohol dehydrogenase is less active in women. But even if we take these kinds of genetically determined differences into account, we can still say that physical dependence and tolerance occur in anyone who over a period of time and more or less regularly takes artificial neurotransmitters, as happens when opiates are used as pain-killers after serious operations or in cases of illnesses with severe pain as one of the symptoms. Nevertheless, our hospitals are certainly not junkie factories. It is true that doctors never break off the administration of opiates suddenly: the dosage is reduced over a period of days to zero (called weaning off), but, in contrast to junkies after a similar procedure (a reduction course in addiction terminology), these patients do not run straight to a dealer. In short, physical dependence is not determinant for the addiction, something else must be present. This other aspect is psychological dependence. Psychological dependence, in contrast to physical dependence, depends less on the substance than on the user. Psychological dependence has to do with 'pleasurable`. Something can be so pleasurable that you can almost not do without it. But whether or not you find something pleasurable depends on you, not on it. One person likes sweets, another savories. So, although you cannot say that a substance causes psychological dependence, you can observe the fact that many more people like sweets than like savories. The chance then that someone who has never tried anything sweet will like it after tasting it is great. To be able to examine the basis of this phenomenon we will take a closer look at the effects of that psychopharmaca classified as addictive on the brain.
We then immediately have to pay attention to the nucleus accumbens, a group of cells functions as a kind of punishment/reward center in the brain. Experiments in animals give us an indication of the extent to which a substance is "addictive". The animals are provided with a permanently implanted infusion, administration of which they can control by pressing a button. If the substance has 'addictive' qualities, the animals administer it to an increasing degree. This is called self-injection behavior.
The behavior of animals (generally rats or monkeys) here may not be regarded as identical to that of humans, although this is often the case in 'addiction'-studies. Firstly because these experimental animals are always in isolation: there is no social interaction, thus no other rewarding stimuli can be received. There is little other than administering a 'chemical' reward. Think here also about the use of drugs by people in prison. When the environment also offers other rewarding stimuli, the chemical reward becomes less important and the self-administration may extinguish altogether, as has been shown in the so-called rat-park studies14,15,16,17.
The second difference is that humans have a much more complicated repertoire of behavior patterns, in other words the human cortex allows many more possibilities of modifying behavior. Psychologically dependent behavior in humans is present only when neither the internal environment (e.g. in psychiatric disorders), nor the external environment (social and family situations) offer sufficient rewarding stimuli. Only then do we see the occurrence of psychological dependence. Psychological dependence in humans does not necessarily come only from substances that stimulate the reward system. Humans can also become psychologically dependent on other rewarding activities. The best example of this is gambling. The excitement that gambling evokes is for some just as rewarding, and brings on 'gambling fever'. In a similar way, people talk of bulemia, or its antithesis, anorexia. But running marathons is rewarding as well, on the pharmacological level based on increased production of endorphins.
This, of course does not disregard the fact that some substances stimulate the human reward center more than others, thereby evoking dependent behavior quicker.
Although this falls somewhat outside pharmacology, the question can also be asked whether 'addiction' uses and understands language symbols. According to Lindesmith18 it does, and chimpanzees e.g. cannot become addicted. He regards chimpanzees that demonstrate cravings no different from patients who, not knowing they are getting morphine, demonstrate cravings, but then directed towards pain-killing or even more directly towards getting an injection. He says they are 'not addictions', in contrast to Spraggs19 who considers both to be examples of addiction. Many psychopharmaco-logists20,21,22 consider the drive to intoxication a biological property of both animals and humans, to be compared with the drive for sex and food.
By using the word 'addiction', thusfar get a highly variable cocktail of the concepts of physical dependence and psychological dependence. So variable that we can safely reject the notion of addiction as a sound medical diagnosis. Especially as we realise that invariably a large measure of the perception of 'trouble', the degree in which the ultimate resulting behavior deviates from our standard, is stirred in that coctail. With this we leave the concept dependence and go over to the earlier mentioned other concept 'deviance'.
Addiction in the light of sociology.
No human society exists where no psychoactive drug or drugs are taken. Whether Fijians drinking kava, mongolian shamans using the fly agaric, khat chewing Yemenis or westerners drinking alcohol, members of all human cultures have found ways to alter their minds by the use of psycho-active substances. No culture exists that denies the right on intoxication altogether.
Let us look at alcohol addiction. It should be evident that a Frenchman's concept of 'an alcoholic' is different of of a Swede's concept of it. It is only when drug addiction is meant that there seems to be wide consensus as to the interpretation of the concept addiction, at least within our culture. But even here we cannot deny that a Dutch person thinks differently about the use of hashish than does a German, let alone a Pakistani farmer. For a Norwegian judge, possession of khat means something quite different than it does for his Yemenite colleague. As you see, the word addiction also has different interpretations when talking about addiction to drugs. By the way, attention lately is focusing more and more on the 'new' addictions such as bulimia, anorexia, gambling (not to mention sex and work addictions). It is the patterns of behavior which are becoming more and more a part of the 'addiction problem' as perceived by society and which are often being treated according to the AA model. These 'addictions' lead to two mutually exclusive questions: we must ask ourselves whether these behavior patterns really are addictions, or we must ask ourselves whether it is worthwhile to extend the concept of addiction so far beyond addiction to alcohol, tobacco or drugs. We should however first research whether the concept of addiction serves at all.
The virtually universally acknowledged right on intoxication does however not mean that this right can be exercised under all circumstances: the use of local psycho-active substance or substances is always surrounded by a number of written and unwritten rules that regulate it's use. The kind of drug being locally used is dependent on what Nature, albeit occasionally with a little help, has to offer and has scarcely to do with it's pharmacological properties, psychoactivity provided. The inhabitants of some regions of the world like South America are provided by nature with large numbers of plants containing psycho-active drugs, while others like Europeans have pitifully few and so have had to resort to the fermentation of grapes or barley (the Mongolians even to the fermenting of mare's milk) to obtain alcohol or the use of poppy's until it was prohibited. So every culture has developed its own ways to handle their drugs, ways that are products of a co-evolution of the society and the naturally available drugs, as much as orchids and their pollinators are products of co-evolution. Thus, drug use being normal human behaviour and approved within the culture it belongs to, is surrounded by rules regulating its use. Some authors, and I agree with them, describe these rules as "ritual"23,24. To cite Harding en Zinberg25:
"Taken as a whole the rituals and social sanctions towards controlled (..) drug use have several major features:
- 1. They define and approve controlled use and condemn compulsive use.
- 2. They limit use to physical and social settings conducive to a positive drug experience.
- 3. They incorporate the principle that use should be kept infrequent enough to avoid dependence/addiction and to maximize the desired drug effect.
- 4. They identify potential untoward drug effects and prescribe relevant precautions to be taken before and during use.
- 5. They assist the user in interpreting and controlling his drug high."
This regards the approved use of drugs. The notion of how to use these substances properly tend to differ within a culture: different subcultures have different notions. As we already mentioned: the notions regarding the use of alcohol differ significantly between the French and the Swedish for example. And they differ even more between cultures, dependent of the properties of the actual substance among other factors. Members of one culture tend to regard the use of other drugs in other cultures as a sign of primitivity. The muslim rejection of alcohol does not differ from our rejection of their former Cannabis use. The chewing of khat within the Yemeni culture can be compared with our alcohol use, however we try to impose prohibition on their use of khat!
So the next notion is unapproved use of drugs: defined as abuse. The above examples already show that what is considered abuse occurs in two varieties: improper use of approved drugs as well as use of unapproved drugs. Both have to do with deviance.
This aspect, the aspect of standards and surpassing these standards is clear: the more behavior deviates from the local norm, the sooner we tend to reject it. In human behavior we see quite often a distribution according to Gauss' bel-curve. In the middle we have the prevailing standard. It does not matter which that is. On each side we have deviations. The first deviation from the standard has no meaning. The second is already 'oh, that's just the way he/she is'. Deviant, but not seriously so. It is only after we pass the second deviation of the standard that it becomes difficult. We have different methods of dealing with such deviant behaviours. However, all of these methods must satisfy one requirement: they must be stripped of their threatening character. After all, society is not just a lot of separate individuals, no, society is defined as a collection of people who more or less agree with each other on a number of things. And what we more or less agree about are our values and the rules of behavior, our standards which are based on those values. Extreme deviation from these standards is fundamentally threatening for the society. So, we must avert the threat. Both medicalisation and criminalisation are instruments by excellence for this. The use of medicalisation has been discussed above and has led to the defining of perceived deviant substance use as "addiction". We pathologized this behavior: we created the addiction-disease.
The other approach, criminalising, has been introduced as well although later than the medicalisation. Here we enter the empire of the lawyers, although the word "addiction" does not appear in any lawbook, as far as I know.
Addiction in the light of the law.
When the United States at the end of the nineteenth century began to campaign for control of the trade in opium, partly based on it's strong abolitionist tendency, partly for economic reasons26, the international drug treaties that were concluded as a result did initially not limit the rights of citizens to use these drugs, as they were in principle legally available either by the state monopolies as in the Dutch East Indies for opium, or as we have seen as over the counter "medicines". The treaties served to limit trafficking, not by themselves limiting legal availability for users, as governments like the Dutch and the English held trade monopolies. This kind of regulation had nothing to do with the general public in Europe and the U.S.A., as it only regarded colonies. As far as drug use occurred in the western countries, it was not a public, but a medical concern. The increasing regulation of the medical and pharmaceutical profession did not regard drugs in another sense than as medicines. To execute the 1914 International Opium Treaty national laws were enacted to prohibit the production and trade of raw opium and processed opium except with government approval, for medical reasons and they left the distribution to the pharmacists and physicians competence. These national laws did not prohibit possession for personal use: the user was not criminalised.
This was logical in the nineteenth century many europese and american patent medicines contained not only opium, but there were as well cocaine or cannabis, mostly as an alcoholic extract: I mentioned already the opium-derived potions as laudanum and paregoric, but as well the cocain containing Vin Mariani and the original Coca Cola and a number of different cannabis-tinctures. Although their use was labelled as medical, these potions were freely available: no legal controls existed. Pharmacists in the western world produced many potions containing psycho-active drugs as painkillers, stimulants, spasmolytics, etc. The "medical" use of Vin Mariani and Pemberton's Coca Cola as "tonics" are relevant examples. Even at the end of the nineteen-twenties only 20% of all medically prescribed cocain, would presently be considered medically proper, under consideration that cocaine at that time was the only available local anaesthetic.
But the use of this kind of potions diminished slowly as stricter controls were imposed on medicines, not primarily to reduce their use, but as protection for the medical and pharmaceutical professions, as we have seen. This made the use of these types of drugs not as much as disappear, but brought their use more and more under medical control, without becoming a matter of public concern.
After the first World War, nobody in war-torn and -tired Europe objected against the United States pressure to extend the prohibition of the use of opium, coca and cannabis, so nobody objected against article 295 of the Versailles Treaty that ended W.W.I., obliging all Parties to the Treaty to obey to the the Hague Convention and to enact the necessary legislation within twelve month. Again, this did not criminalise the use of drugs. It is important to note that the Narcotic Laws which in this way were introduced in Europe are not the result of an european perception of an european domestic problem, but the result of clear pressure of the U.S.A., "the barbarians of the West" with their "extraordinary savage idea of stamping out all people who happen to disagree .... with their social theories" against narcotics, alcohol27.
In the twenties the pressure from the U.S.A. increased to extend the existing international treaties that until that moment only regarded the drug crops: opium-poppies and coca-leaves, to their chemical derivatives: morfine, heroin and cocain and to limit their production. At first both the Germans and the Dutch objected, refined opiates and pure cocaine being important income generating drugs for their respective pharmaceutical industries. In the twenties the Netherlands were the world's biggest producer of pure cocaine, as we succeeded to grow a Erythroxylon variety in the Dutch East Indies. However both dutch and germans complied in the end, which resulted in the ratification of the 1925 Geneva Treaty. This Treaty started the criminalisation of drug use, bringing all then known "drugs", now including hemp, and their derivatives under the penal code, exept when used in the realm of the medical/scientific profession and disregarded what decades later became known as recreational druguse. The stated standard of behaviour with regard to all psychopharmacological luxuries except ethanol, nicotine and caffein in the Western world became: no use. In modern war on drugs phraseology: "just say no", or even worse: "zero tolerance", and the especially american cultural imperialism tries to impose this standard, not unsucsesfully, on the whole of the world. You might have noticed that even the use of nicotine as a drug is being made deviant in the U.S.A. and even caffeine has recently been denoted as an addictive "drug".
We already observed how within the framework of our Western culture the notion medical use has developed, and how this way the right to selfdetermination of the individual was violated. By the installation of the medical order insidiously an infraction was made in our basic human right of self-determination. So, the crux of this matter is whether limiting the legal availability to use to firm medical and pharmaceutical control and criminalising recreational use outside the medical situation, is a serious infraction on the civil rights as defined in the french constitution, the basis of modern western world law, with exeption of the remnants of the British empire that still use common law? Let us consider the root principles of this law.
In 1762 Jean-Jacques Rousseau28 confronted his contemporaries with the question:
"Trouver une forme d'association qui defende et protege de toute la force commune la personne et les biens de chaque associe, et par laquelle chacun s'unissant a tous n'obeisse pourtant qu'a lui-meme et reste aussi libre qu'auparavant.1"
He answered this question by describing the "social contract" between citizens and sovereign, a contract based on the right of freedom for the individual:
"aucun homme n'a une autorite naturelle sur son sembable"29.
His ideas were put into practice when on july 4, 1776 Thomas Jefferson read the Declaration of Independence in which the United States justified their rejection of the British rule based on the perception of some self evident truths:
"that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable rights; that among these are life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness."
This perception was again formulated, when on 26 augustus 1789 in Paris the Constituante met to decide upon the "D‚claration des droits de l'homme et du citoyen", which was written under the redaction of the Marquis de Lafayette (known from the U.S. liberation war). In the preamble "les droits naturels, inali‚nables et sacr‚s" were defined: in its article IV was stated:
"La libert‚ consiste … pouvoir tout ce qui nuit pas … autrui. Ainsi l'exercise des droits naturels de chaque homme n'a de bornes que celles qui assurent aux autres membres de la societ‚ la jouissance de ces mˆmes droits; ces bornes ne peuvent ˆtre d‚termin‚es que par la loi."2
This still is one of the most basic principles of the civil (and as such human) rights in our society. A corollary of this basic right is that the state does not have the right to limit the exercise of the liberty of the citizen, unless the exercise of this liberty harms other people.
Although the introduction of said principle marked the end of absolute monarchy and replaced the monarch's government by the people's government, the course of events during the French Revolution and its aftermath showed that the people's sovereignty could involve a tyranny by the people's so-called "majority" that eventually might pale the tyranny of an absolute monarch.
"Like other tyrannies, the tyranny of the majority was at first, and is still vulgarly, held in dread, chiefly as operating through the acts of the public authorities. But reflecting persons perceived that when society is itself the tyrant - society collectively over the separate individuals who compose it - its means of tyrannizing are not restricted to the acts which it may do by the hands of its political functionaries. Society can and does execute its own mandates; and if it issues wrong mandates instead of right, or any mandates at all in things with which it ought not to meddle, it practises a social tyranny more formidable than many kinds of political oppression, since, though not usually upheld by such extreme penalties, it leaves fewer means of escape, penetrating much more deeply into the details of life, and enslaving the soul itself. Protection therefore, against the tyranny of the magistrate is not enough; there needs protection also against the tyranny of the prevailing opinion and feeling, against the tendency of society to impose, by other means than civil penalties, its own ideas and practices as rules of conduct on those who dissent from them; to fetter the development and, if possible, prevent the formation of any individuality not in harmony with its ways, and compel all characters to fashion themselves upon the model of its own. There is a limit to the legitimate interference of collective opinion with individual independence; and to find that limit, and maintain it against encroachment, is as indispensable to a good condition of human affairs as protection against political despotism.30" wrote John Stuart Mill less than a century later.
This is not to say that society has to morally justify all individual behaviour of its members, it means only that the state does not have the right to prohibit those behaviours unless they directly harm other citizens.
"The acts of an individual may be hurtful to others or wanting in due consideration for their welfare, without going to the length of violating any of their constituted rights. The offender may then be justly punished by opinion, though not by law."31
These principles found their final application in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights of 1948: Article 3 states:
"Everyone has the right to life, liberty and the security of person"
and art. 29.2 states:
"In the exercise of is rights and freedoms, everyone shall be subject only to such limitations as are determined by law solely for the purpose of securing due recognition and respect for the rights and freedoms of others and of meeting the just requirements of morality, public order and the general welfare in a democratic society."
How do these principles relate to the present "War on Drugs"? As "everyone has the right to life, liberty and the security of person" the prohibition is without question an infraction on the freedom of the individual. Whether this is however an illegal infraction remains to be seen. The State has the right to limit the exercise of an individuals rights and freedoms. But the individual shall be subject only to such limitations as are determined by law solely for the purpose of securing due recognition and respect for the rights and freedoms of others and of meeting the just requirements of morality, public order and the general welfare in a democratic society.
Does drug use threaten recognition and respect for rights and freedoms of others? No! Or would you request me to recognise moral opinions as "Just say no" that are imposed on me without recognising my opinions. Does "Thou shalt not use drugs" by the way respect my rights and freedoms?
Sure, some drug users do infringe on the rights and freedoms of others!. Some drug users do threaten morality, public order and general welfare!
The question is whether this is the necessary consequence of their drug use? And, moreover, whether prohibition is a necessary condition to limit their freedom, which can be legally done to protect other citizens?
It will be clear that the answer to these questions is no. Alcohol has not to be prohibited to prosecute the drunken driver! Tobacco use has not to be outlawed to protect non-smokers against smokers' toxic fumes!
Sure, "there is a degree of folly, and a degree of what may be called (though the phrase is not unobjectionable) lowness or depravation of taste, which, though it cannot justify doing harm to the person who manifests it, renders him necessarily and properly subject of distaste, or, in extreme cases even of contempt.32" Again: "The acts of an individual may (even) be hurtful to others or wanting in due cosideration of their welfare, without going to the length of violating any of their constituted rights"32.
Let us apply all the foregoing to the present situation. We have seen that we apply the notion of 'addiction' in two situations: the behaviour of so-called abusers of legal drugs and users of illegal drugs, whatever their behaviour.
Regarding the first category, alcoholics are not criminalised by their use but by the way their behaviour infracts on other people's liberties. We do not need the conception op addiction to deal with them, exept in a pseudo-medical sense. If they want to be "treated" they can get medical treatment, although all these treatments, with the exception of administering refusal, is not medical but moral in nature, all being derived of the Alcoholics Anonymous' Twelve seps program. This should however not be confused with the real medical treatment of the ailments that are somatic consequences of a continuous high alcohol intake, due to alcohol's innate toxic properties. We may conclude that the notion "addiction" serves here only to indicate a level of alcohol intake with behavioural consequences that we consider deviant.
We have however to note that when societies are suddenly confronted with a new drug, they have no previously developed sociocultural rules, rituals, to regulate it's use. The result is often unchecked use, which can have a highly destructive effect on at least a large number of the members of that society. Examples may not be in particular the introduction of alcohol among Indian tribes in the U.S.A. or among Esquimaux in Canada and Greenland, as the role of alcohol-pushing arms peddlers may obscure the right picture, but the sudden availability of large amounts of alcohol in concentrated form due to the industrial application of the distillation process in western Europe and the availability of heroin in South East Asia are. Although heroin only appeared in these countries after opium became repressed33, we observe that societal regulations that governed the use of opium in these societies did not function with regard to heroin, like the rules applying for beer and wine, did (at least for a time) not function for spirits.
Sometimes these effects can be mitigated: when the new drug in question is introduced as part of a complete new (and dominant) culture, the rules of this new culture can be taken over as well. When, on the other hand, it is just the drug which is introduced no existing rules apply and the drug can have very negative effects on society, independent of it's pharmacological properties.
This perception is highly applicable with regard to the use of the presently illegal drugs. Here hardly any distinction is being made between use, abuse and addiction. Here without any doubt the French bear the palm. Their term "toxicomanie" is being applied with equal ease for those that smoke an occasional joint of Cannabis as for those that we denote as hard core junkies. The fact that over 95 % of users of Cannabis as well as cocaine34,35,36,37 are decent citizens, employed, paying taxes and not infringing the law more than by misdemeanors as parking their car wrongly, with exception of the narcotic law eludes them, as much as this eludes most governments.
They, as much as most of the population, base their opinions on the 5 % that are troublesome, the junkies. This is not surprising as these people are visible and physicians go on taking these people as representative for all users of illegal drugs38.
Thus we can again safely state that the notion of addiction is not applicable on use of illegal drugs. Illegal drug use does not equal the notion of addiction in the pseudo-medical sense as in alcoholism, although it is presently deviant behaviour, the more as the use is being prohibited by the authorities. But, again this deviance has nothing to do with the medical notion of addiction.
So what is left is abuse of illegal drugs. Can we apply the notion of addiction here fruitfully? The behaviour of junkies is, rightly, condemned. But does this have to do with 'drugs' or with a special situation of dependence, in a situation in which the object of the dependence is 'scarce'?
As we saw above, the behavior we call addictive is the behavior that results if a substance causes physical dependence, thus is necessary; lowers stress, thus is pleasurable and is also forbidden, thus scarce, this behavior takes on the pattern of junkie behavior, characterized by stealing, manipulating, considering other people as no more than utensils to be thrown away when unnecessary, etc.
When we observe that many inmates of the Nazi extermination camps have shown the same quote "irresponsible" unquote behaviour, by torturing their fellow inmates, stealing food of others as hungry as themselves, it dawns to us that this behaviour is dictated by the necessity to survive. So junkies with all their rejectable behaviour are just trying to survive. This behaviour is not to be considered pathological, but as a behavioural subroutine present in all of us, but only activated in rather rare circumstances, those were something is perceived as an necessary condition to survive, a condition without its fulfillment survival is perceived impossible. Under such conditions one either resigns and dies or has only one objective: to obtain its fulfillment at any price.
When people are exposed to a reality that is unbearable and are unable to change these circumstances they have two options. Suicide is one of them. The other is surviving by changing their perception of reality. The use of mind-altering drugs is one of them. This situation is not exceptional, the stress relieving effect of the use of legal drugs as coffee, alcohol and tobacco are used in this way, but only limited in time and place. The daily stress of waking up to work is relieved by the use of a cup of coffee, the stress of talking is relieved by many (and count me among them) by a cigarette, the stress of work is relieved by an alcoholic drink after work.
It is only those that are under the permanent stress of an unbearable reality, caused by either often incurable psychic problems, or family situations or unchangable societal factors as poverty and unemployment that need to change their perceptions on a continuous basis to survive. In my opinion it is criminal to condemn this people and to prohibit their drugs of choice and to deliver them to the mafia. To my opinion it is criminal to medicalize them by applying the label addiction-disease. Addiction is a construct that only serves the powerful and serves neither a medical, nor a social aim. I hope you will understand that there are no addictions, because the concept of addiction is nonsense!

Continued from Last Week’s Post ‘the history of mermaids part 1‘
With modern technology and the ability to instantly share stories, pictures, and thoughts, a lot of mer-memes have become more homogenized. In fact, due to Disney’s rendition of Hans Christian Andersen’s story “The Little Mermaid”, most people instantly visualize the red headed Ariel when they hear the word “mermaid”. But let us dive deeper.
In Andersen’s tale, The Little Mermaid, six sea princesses await their fifteenth birthday in order to journey to the surface of the ocean and experience what is on dry land. The littlest princess must listen to the stories of her sisters once they come back from the surface, and she gets more and more jealous and excited for her turn.
When she turns 15, she is adorned with pearl-flowers by her grandmother, and rises “as light as a bubble” to the surface of the ocean, where she chances upon a ship, with a handsome prince on board. She watches the celebrations that take place on the boat late into the night, when suddenly the ship is overtaken by a violent storm.
The ship sinks and the prince is cast into the ocean, where he struggles to stay afloat but eventually turns unconscious and begins to drown. The young mermaid cannot help herself, as she has never seen anyone so beautiful, and saves the prince, swimming him to land and laying him in the surf, watching until a young girl finds the prince, and he awakens. She returns to the palace.
The mermaid is sad and misses the prince, and is vaguely annoyed that he didn’t know she was the one to save him. She learns from her grandmother that humans die much younger than mermaids, and that they have souls that go to heaven (mermaids have no souls), and that humans would think her fish tail quite ugly. She obviously begins to resent being a mermaid, cursed with an ugly tail and a 300 year long life that ends with (instead of eternal bliss in heaven) turning into sea foam in the ocean. She cuts a deal with the sorceress to get some legs and take back the prince that she so desires.
But of course, nothing is free, and this deal comes with strings attached. The first string is that each step she walks will feel like walking on hot swords. The second string, and much worse if you ask me, is that the mermaid will only gain an immortal soul if she can convince the prince to marry her. If he marries another, her heart will break and she will turn into sea foam. Oh yeah, also she can’t woo him with talking, since she has to give up her voice. GOOD LUCK.
So the princess, with her legs and her beautiful face and her empty cup of a body waiting to be filled with a soul heads to the surface to win the heart of the prince. And what happens? He treats her as a pet, giving her the love of a child, but never the love of a wife. It turns out, he has a vague memory of the mermaid who saved him, but realizes he’ll never see her again and has settled for second best! The maiden who found him on the beach after the mermaid had ACTUALLY saved him. Pretty crushing.
The mermaids five sisters return to the youngest the night before the prince’s wedding; they have also cut a deal with the sea witch, to save her life. They traded their long beautiful hair for a knife. If the little mermaid stabs the prince in the heart, then she will once again become a mermaid and be able to spend her life with her family, in the ocean that misses her.
But she is unable to kill him, she loves him too much and for some reason she’s even really cool to the chick who won the prince in her place. By daybreak, the spirits of the air take pity on her, and instead of turning into sea foam, she is transformed into a spirit of the air, to wait 300 years when she may travel to the kingdom of heaven and gain an immortal soul. The Prince and Princess rush around looking for her, I imagine in the same way I went running around looking for my cat when she was hiding under the bed once. Then they moved on.
AND EVERYONE LIVED HAPPILY EVER AFTER. (jk)
You may have caught some of the Disney differences and similarities, as well as similarities with previous mer-tales. The little mermaid is vain, the little mermaid is preoccupied with looks, the little mermaid took someone from the sea and spared their life by returning him to the shore. The mermaid has many sisters, and she gives up her ENTIRE life and family and voice and identity for a man that she hasn’t ever (and will never be able to) talk to.
The main difference between Andersen’s version and Disney’s version is the ending: the mermaid is pretty toothless and wussy in both tales. She voluntarily gives up her entire life, but in the Disney version it’s justified when she is able to marry her man, maintain her class position (royalty, obvs), and live happily ever after with everything. In Andersen’s version, she gives up everything, but it’s a bad bet. She loses her family, she loses the prince, and she even loses the privilege of having a corporeal presence, now she is just an air spirit.
But because the mermaid meme has been around since long before Disney, and long before Andersen, I think it’s time for us modern mermaid gals to re-appropriate the meme. Instead of being about a fish willing to sacrifice her family, her voice, her identity, her home and her ocean, we should be strong merbabes who refuse to sacrifice ourselves and our ocean. Maybe the modern mermaid walks on land, but also loves to swim in the sea. The modern mermaid meme can take from the old tales, but learn from the new ones as well.
Many of these stories are about women turning into mermaids out of grief, but maybe we should turn into mermaids out of our love of the ocean. I think the modern mermaid meme is about conservation, preservation, education, and love; love of the ocean and it’s inhabitants, love of the feeling that the sea brings us, love of the connection the ocean offers the world. Also a sense of protection and duty we must offer back to the ocean, for our lives are inexplicably connected to it.
What do you think the modern day mermaid meme is?

“It’s that ability to reconnect with people that in any other era you would probably never have seen again,” he explains.
“There are some people that I have such rose coloured memories of that I’m not even sure if I want to affect those in any way. The girl in third grade I had a huge crush on and was the most perfect thing I’d ever seen. I find I kind of want to keep her that way.
“I think Facebook has an ability to bring a lot of people down to earth that you may have put on a pedestal.”
Colin’s film about time travel, Safety Not Guaranteed, is an engaging indie movie about a subject normally only tackled by filmmakers with huge special effects budgets. Its origins were grounded in something a little more offbeat than normal – a classified ad that appeared in the Backwoods Home Magazine in 1997.
Put in by John Silveira, one of the magazine’s employees, who needed to fill a space. It read Wanted: Someone to go back in time with. Must bring your own weapons. I have only done this once before. Safety Not Guaranteed.
He also placed an ad looking for a girlfriend. While he got a handful of responses to his plea for romance, more than a thousand people applied to become time travellers. The ad became an internet meme and was even featured on the Jay Leno show.
“He got letters from prisoners and people who had made mistakes they wanted to correct, who took it seriously,” says Colin.
“All that did was really support our instincts that this should be a movie about regret.”
The ad inspired Derek Connolly to write a script for Colin to direct about a group of cynical journalists who follow up the ad in the hope of exposing the person who put it in as a fantasist. But as they stake out the PO Box, it becomes apparent they all have things about their lives they want to change or people they want to reconnect with.
“We are not the first people to make a time travel movie, we were very aware of that,” says Colin. “We felt if we were going to step into that arena we wanted to find our own reasons for why we had a right to do it in the first place. It was an opportunity to make a movie about time travel – why we all might need a time machine sometimes, to fix our mistakes. Much more human issues.”
Thirty-six-year old Colin, from California, has been making films since he was 12. He met scriptwriter Derek Connolly while they were both interns on Saturday Night Live. Safety Not Guaranteed is their first feature. It so impressed Disney Studios that they signed them up for two films, an original movie and a remake of the 80s hit Flight of the Navigator.
* Safety Not Guaranteed was released on Boxing Day. |
Not everyone loves the new version of Star Wars: Battlefront. Some people (and I'm just vaguely referencing the general concept of people, not saying that this is something that I PERSONALLY FEEL STRONGLY ABOUT) some of these people, well, they like the old SWBFs. When the cancelled Free Radical shooter developed Star Wars: Battlefront 3 had footage leaked to the internet, a group of fans saw the potential of these ideas and set out to make their own finished project in the same vein. Things did not go well.
This was a few years back, and the development of this project wasn't the problem. It was the 2016 cease-and-desist from LucasArts. Which came as a surprise to no one. So the team at Frontwire Studios did what any enterprising group of developers would do: they rebranded. Now, their SW:BF3 spiritual sequel is entirely spiritual, with all the Star Wars elements swapped out for a whole new galaxy... far, far away from legally dicey IP law. And the Battlefront game has become Battlefrontish, which is actually more interesting to me.
Welcome to Galaxy in Turmoil.
In Fall of '07, Frontwire had promised a demo that we're still waiting on in 2018. But today, Reddit got a glimpse at some gameplay that was so well received, it yielded a quick YouTube video that we can share with you now. They'd really like you to know THIS IS NOT A TRAILER.
There's a lot here that looks like what I miss about the original, and I'm tickled to see what got re-imagined but what still looks like, say, pod-racing. Also, this prompt says "Press F to Pick The Egg" and while I don't know what the Egg is, or why it need be pick'd, I hope this becomes a meme.
This shot just feels very Dead Space to me. Maybe I just like seeing bureaucracy in maps and know that, no matter where in space and time I go, there will always be boring work waiting for me.
Frontwire is updating the game's community about testing and the like via the Steam page, which still promises and impending demo release. I cannot wait. |

Can’t-Wait Wednesday is hosted by Tressa at Wishful Endings. This is a weekly meme to spotlight and discuss the books we’re excited about that we have yet to read. The books I choose aren’t released yet and usually won’t be published for at least two or three months. So I have a while to wait!
I love finding out about books which will publish in future months and I like to share my excitement about the books. I also like to find out about new books on other people’s blogs and hope they’ll sometimes find something to look forward to on my blog.
I’m excited to read . . .
Dead Blow by Lisa Preston
Series: Horseshoer Mystery #2
Published by Skyhorse
Publishing date: November 5
Synopsis: A dead blow hammer leaves little to no mark on the surface it strikes. It’s not a shoer’s tool, but horseshoer Rainy Dale knows them and knows there are more questions than answers about how her new client became a widow. The old woman says there was hardly a bruise on her dead husband. Why was he driving his tractor so dangerously near the killer bull? How long did it take him to die after the machine rolled and pinned him? The whole town seems aware of the dead man’s wandering eye. Did the widow know? It all happened just before Rainy came to town, about the time that her fiancé, Guy, volunteered with his buddy to help search for a young woman who went missing from Cowdry, Oregon. Rainy is supposed to be making wedding plans and friends, but she can’t help being drawn into the town’s old intrigues.
Once again, Rainy will have to dig deep and use all the tools in her box to both defend herself and the people she’s just learning to love.
I read the first book in this series last year and liked it a lot. I haven’t read a book with a horseshoer as the main character. I’m looking forward to learning more about Rainy as well as reading a good mystery. |

The New Year’s Resolution Reading Challenge is off to a good start but there’s plenty of time to join. What are your goals for the New Year? Are there books that would help you focus on them? Those are the books to read for the New Year’s Resolution Reading Challenge.
We had a good turn out for the first Twitter chat of challenge participants and others interested in books at the New Year. I posted instructions for those new to Twitter chats: New Year’s Resolution Reading Challenge — The Twitter Chat. Those instructions will be just as applicable this Wednesday, January 2. Join us with the hashtag #NewYearBooks at 9 Eastern / 8 Central / 2am GMT.
There has also been quite a bit of interest in the first of two New Year read-alongs: The Power of Habit — A New Year Group Read. I have discussion questions ready to e-mail anyone who asks. We’ll do our discussion posts for Part 1 this Wednesday, but this book is pretty quick to read so there’s plenty of time to join.
The second read-along came about because of the Twitter chat. It turned out a number of us wanted to read Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World that Can’t Stop Talking by Susan Cain. I’m working up the details for that one.
The Weekend Cooking crowd gave a terrific response to my request for books to support food resolutions. Don’t miss these great books suggested by food and book bloggers for resolutions like eat healthier and cook more: Weekend Cooking: Books to Support New Year’s Resolutions.
I finished Winter Garden by Kristin Hannah. A beautiful, but devastating book. The scenes around Leningrad during World War II haunt me, especially when I think about the women and children living in the horror of Syria right now. It breaks my heart that humans won’t do better than this.
After the too real tragedy of Winter Garden, I decided I needed a break from the real world and went for an urban fantasy — Pale Demon by Kim Harrison. So far, this has me traveling from Cincinnati to St. Louis in a car with a witch, an elf, and a pixy. We expect to meet up with a vampire soon.
I’m reading The Power of Habit by Charles Duhigg for our group read: The Power of Habit — A New Year Group Read. This is a re-read for me and it wasn’t that long ago that I read it the first time, but I’m surprised how much I’m getting out of a second reading.
I’ve started two books on my New Year list: Reading and my New Year’s Resolutions:
- Smart Chefs Stay Slim by Allison Adato
- 2013 Create Your Incredible Year by Leonie Dawson
I’ve got so much going on, I’m not sure what’s next. It will be late in the week before I’m ready to pick up something else.
What are you reading?
It’s Monday! What Are Your Reading? is a weekly meme hosted by Sheila of Book Journey. Be sure to check out her post today to see her selections and the list of links to all the other participating bloggers. |
How Much MCM Can One Town Have: A Tour of Enid’s Architectural Marvels, Part 1
text and photos by Lynne Rostochil
Some of our state’s best architecture lies far beyond big city limits in the small hamlets dotting Oklahoma’s countryside. Of course, Bartlesville and Norman come to mind when talking about small-town mod, but after touring some of Enid’s incredibly distinctive modern buildings last weekend, I’d have to rank the Wheat Capital of Oklahoma right up there with her better-known cousins. It’s all thanks to a group of architects who called Enid home during the post-WWII years and used their town as a canvas to explore innovative design ideas … and to building owners who were happy to go along for the ride.
Enter John and Kingkini Arend. Originally from Ohio and India respectively, the recent architecture school graduates moved to Enid four years ago for work. Kingkini tells me that for the first year they lived there, they spent every weekend driving around and discovering their new hometown’s vast array of mid-century architecture by such local architects as Dura Smith, Frank Davies, Elbert Wheeler, Tom Rogers, and Dow Gumerson. These weekly architecture safaris led them to conclude that Enid was a significant architectural player during modernism’s Golden Age, and they were eager to share their discoveries with everyone. So, John and Kingkini put together an architecture tour last weekend that, I have to say, rivaled any FLW or Goff tour I’ve been on. After checking out building after incredible building last Saturday, it’s really hard to believe that Enid isn’t as well known for its mid-century architecture as Norman and Bartlesville, but if John and Kingkini keep doing such a great job of spreading the word, maybe this metropolis of almost 50,000 soon will be.
We began our tour in the posh Indian Hills neighborhood, which is a delightful hodge podge of homes built from the 1930s through the 1980s. You can find such diverse examples as colonial, traditional, streamline, and happily for us, mid-century homes in this tree-lined, rambling neighborhood just a mile from downtown. It’s such a lovely area that more than once on the tour, I found myself pondering the feasibility of commuting to and from OKC every day just so I could call this lovely enclave home. Have a look at some of these beauties and maybe you’ll decide to join in my fantasy and sign up for the daily carpool to the big city.
Our first stop was this charming ranch designed by Frank Davies:
Davies grew up in Enid and studied under Bruce Goff at OU, graduating in 1952. The following year, he designed this home for his new in-laws, the Frantz’s. All I can say is that, if he was trying to score some brownie points with them, Davies succeeded mightily with his creation. I mean look at this entry, just look at it!
It’s all original and all FAN-TAS-TIC! And that’s just the beginning. The formal living/dining room is surrounded by windows on three sides, bringing the outdoors in while also creating a cozy and very livable space:
Look at this incredible and quite ample kitchen with original metal cabinets and super shiny red floor. I can’t express enough how much I love this unusual color combination:
Off of the kitchen is the den and informal dining area:
The owner got this to-die-for dining table and chairs when Frank Davies closed his office several years ago. It’s very fitting that it has found a home in a house he designed. Speaking of design, the owners also have all of the original blueprints for the house — lucky them!
Their luck has continued with their incredible art collection. Homeowner Molly is Elbert Wheeler’s niece, and she has inherited some very colorful modern glass lamps that once hung in his architectural office. Wheeler’s lovely wife, Meme (who joined us on the tour), is also a very accomplished abstract painter and has passed down a few of her energetic works that now hang in the home:
Sigh…. I love this house and would have been completely content if that’s all we toured, but this was just the beginning of a day filled with great design.
Speaking of great design, on the way to our next stop, we spotted this delight:
Are you freakin’ kidding me? Oh my, that is something quite extraordinary, indeed. Maybe it will be on the next Enid tour … hint, hint.
Okay, back to this tour. Our next stop was one of my very favorite office complexes ever, the Ward Offices, which was constructed in 1967. I’m so in love with this design I can’t stand it. Local architect Dura Smith (of Smith-Day and later Smith, Day and Davies — yes, our buddy, Frank Davies) lived in this modest neighborhood of attractive clapboard homes surrounding a pasture and creek. He envisioned great things for the hilly grove bordering Owen K. Garriott Road and began talking to his neighbors about building a unique office complex on the site. One by one, they agreed, construction began, and this incredibly sexy complex was the result:
My heart goes a’flutter every time I set eyes on this group of four office buildings half resting on terra firma and half supported by thick concrete stilts embedded just above the creek bed. It’s just too darned cool to be an office complex, with generous balconies overlooking the creek, plenty of windows to let in light, and contrasting red brick and green siding (there’s that fantastic color combination again) that lend an air of restrained drama to the whole place. Smith’s ingenious design made the most of a lot that I’m sure many less innovative architects deemed impossible to work with, and his vision was rewarded with an architectural merit award from the Oklahoma AIA in 1970.
Sadly, Smith didn’t live to enjoy this meaningful accolade from his peers. He was killed in a car/train accident in Enid in 1968, cutting short a career that I’m sure would have left Enid with many more architectural marvels.
After leaving the Ward Offices, we headed to the other side of downtown to check out a building that is straight out of a Jetson’s episode, the local VFW:
Designed by another local architect, Tom Rogers, and built in 1956, the building has seen better days, but it still looks like it could blast off toward the heavens at any moment. Rogers was another Goff student and graduated from OU in 1948. He returned to Enid, where he spent his career designing Enid’s best examples of Googie architecture, including this butterflied gem:
From the VFW, we headed to the heart of downtown and another Smith, Day & Davies project, the Enid Public Library:
Originally, a sweet Carnegie Library occupied the site on the town square:
Over the years, a lack of proper care forced the city to condemn and demolish the building in the late ’50s. When its modern concrete and glass replacement was constructed in 1964, it seemed that all of Enid showed up to have a look:
Here are some of those balcony-level circles today:
Originally, the lobby featured a rounded front desk with a slatted wood wall that rose up two stories:
The wood walls were removed during a remodel some years ago, but a small example remains in an upstairs conference room, complete with original podium — love those sexy legs!
While much of the library remains original, alas, most of these great furnishings are long gone:
Much like the Ward Offices we toured earlier, the library’s massive weight is supported by huge concrete pillars. A floating glass wall breaks up the monotony of the concrete and gives what would normally be a heavy-handed, almost Brutalist structure a much-needed light and airy feel:
Known for its immense grain elevators that surround the city, Enid has one of the largest grain storage capacities in the world. So, perhaps it’s no coincidence that the library’s vertical lines mimic those of the grain elevators that contribute so greatly to Enid’s skyline. Compare these vintage and current-day shots of the library…
With these beautiful images of Enid’s grain elevators taken by Blake Gumprecht:
What do you think?
Well, that’s it for today. We’ll wrap up our fun tour of Enid’s mid-century wonders in the next couple of days with a look at some jaw-dropping homes that might make that idea of moving up north quite a bit more tempting. |

Hard work comes with recovery. Sufficient sleep is proven to have positive effects on your brain, physiological health and mental/emotional well-being. In order to balance your fitness journey, we also believe in getting sufficient rest to make sure your body is ready to operate at its highest potential.
We value mental and emotional wellness just as highly as your physical fitness. By maintaining and improving your mental health and taking care of your emotional well-being, we believe that it will contribute to a happier lifestyle.
The mastermind: Damian wants to make the world better, healthier and happier.
Read Damian's Story
Being an introvert, he doesn’t like going into a crowded gym filled with sweaty, grunting men.
Besides, most gyms are not within walking distance of his home or workplace, so he would have skipped most of his workouts and waste the gym membership away.
One day he had an idea: “What if I have a private space near my home or workplace with just enough equipments to workout? I can also follow workout programs from YouTube easily.”
So he came up with The Gym Pod, a 24hr container gym with no frills that is fully un-manned, private, and small enough to be located within office and housing estates.
He’s still a skinny guy, but he has now started working out regularly. You can do it too.

Lucius spends 10 hours a day staring at the computer.
By the end of the day, he’s mentally drained and lazy to travel all the way to the gym. If only there was a place to lift weights that’s just a few minutes walk away.
Now that we have the Gym Pod, Lucius can workout with Damian and Gerald after their long working hours – at any time of the day!
Like Lucius, Singaporeans are extremely hardworking people. But he can still clock an hour or two of exercise each week. With the Gym Pod, you can too!

[From "Maybe If Andrew Kaczynski Repented, God Would Heal His Child’s Cancer?"]
Writing about the program of brutal censorship this morning after a German scientist had his door kicked in by cops and was arrested at gunpoint for questioning the coronavirus narrative, I mentioned the incident where CNN hunted down and blackmailed a person that made a meme making fun of CNN, which was retweeted by Donald Trump.
We soon found out Han Asshole Solo’s real identity was somehow figured out by “KFile” writer Andrew Kaczynski, who went on to publicly document that he contacted the man and threatened to publicly expose his identity if he continued to make memes. The apology was posted after Solo was contacted by Kaczynski.
Of course, despite the fact that it is obviously illegal to blackmail someone like this – it’s extortion whenever you threaten to cause someone harm in exchange for them doing something for you – law enforcement did not investigate.
But God investigated.
He found Kaczynski to be wanting.
And He gave his child cancer.
I know that if I were Andrew Kaczynski, and I was holding my cancer-riddled infant child, I would be begging God for forgiveness for the evil I had done, and I would be promising Him that I would make amends for it. I would publicly apologize for serving the murderers of Jesus Christ and I would publicly apologize to all of the people I’d harmed.
God has made it clear that children will be punished for the sins of their fathers. [Exodus 20;5-6] |
Leonard G. Horowitz, DMD, MA, MPH
(April 2, 2016)
Who is Larry Cook? “Larry” worked as the Executive Director of the California Naturopathic Doctors Association for months before California voters established a precedent in being the first state to mandate vaccinations for school children.
In this position, “Larry” was compelled to work for his bosses and paymasters in the national organization. Larry lobbied in this “day job” for passage of SB 277, but at night, purportedly, he was an “anti-vaxxer activist.” During Larry’s “free time” Larry said he hosted stopmandatoryvaccines.com, dedicated to telling Internet traffic how terrible vaccines are–to a point.
Larry’s political position required him to promote SB 277. That legislation set a national precedent for laws that would give naturopathic doctors (NDs) a piece of the “vaccine pie.” According to Larry’s agenda, NDs would vote in favor of SB-277 so long as they were authorized to get paid for services that included administering medical exemptions to vaccinations for needy patients. This story was largely covered in a related popular article.
Larry’s actions in his “day job” appear to conflict with his “night job.” Is this “hypocrisy”? “Selective reasoning”? Or what I call “psychoscotoma”?
Larry reflects the vast number of “anti-vaxxers” who neglect their hearts, souls, and core beliefs in favor of paymasters spreading a social disease aiding and abetting genocide–the mass killing, sickening and enslaving of humanity in favor of drug industry “crisis capitalism.”
But not according to Australian anti-vaccination Bev Pattenden, who I’ll refer to as Bev.
“As many of you know I have been fighting against vaccination for 19 years,” Bev wrote in a group email, “and I am aware of the great work of Leonard Horowitz.
“I am also a follower of Larry Cook on Facebook.
“For this [related article] to suggest that Larry Cook is a “double agent” appears to be just over the top. “In my opinion it was just a matter of a clash of personalities and egos on a cruise ship.
“Why on earth would Larry Cook pose as anti-vax campaigner [and sell out to lobby in support of SB277 favoring mandatory vaccinations], when every single post (including prayers) on his Facebook blog is critical of vaccination.
“He [Larry] says he has an injured son, caused by vaccines. Is this true?
“There is no back-up for this accusation against Larry Cook in the article and I am most disappointed that this clash of personalities may cause a rift in the anti-vaccine movement worldwide.
“Please keep these accusations against Larry Cook out of your reports, until you can show proof that they are true.
“In the meantime, let us hope that this evil vaccine beast is now brought to its knees, after 200 years of mayhem and lies.”
PSYCHOSCOTOMA, Ignorance, Dissonance, Injustice, and More Deaths
To explain Bev’s attitude and position on Larry Cook, I needed to coin this new word–“PSYCHOSCOTOMA.” Only with this new word can a reasonable person consider the facts and establish a diagnosis.
In medicine, a “scotoma” is a blind spot in vision. Accordingly, psychoscotoma is a blind spot in perception caused by media disinformation. This is different from “willful blindness.” Psychoscotoma is a mental disorder responsible for much of the world’s needless suffering, and the stagnation of progress in every field of social activism and human rights.
A good example of widespread psychoscotoma exists with the film VAXXED, and the controlled media response to it. VAXXED presented a great opportunity to study this psycho-social illness affecting nearly everyone—people who believe vaccines are good, and the “anti-vaxxers” too who are not true blue to their positions. That is, although they believe vaccines are risky, they are too afraid and programmed to dismiss the poisonous industry entirely.
I see both groups, pro-vaxxers and anti-vaxxers suffering from this same underlying psycho-social affliction. But people suffer in different ways and to different extents.
Let me detail psychoscotoma a bit more in both medical as well as lay terms.
A psychoscotoma is a “blind spot in normal perception caused mainly by media programming generating fear and psychological denial. This mental illness, or psychological “complex,” produces what is called a ‘belief-behavioral inconsistency’ within sufferers. The afflicted are not “stupid,” but generally called “dumb” by others who see the “big picture,” and can’t reconcile the harm done by the “dumb” “stupid” sufferers’ cognitive behavioral dissonance.
In other words, sufferers of psychoscotomas don’t say or do what they know in their hearts to be true. They are dishonest with themselves and become part of the deeper larger problem–the “herd mentality” disabling and damaging the “body politic.”
This widespread mental disorder, or ‘coping mechanism,’ is justifiably adjudged stupidity or ‘hypocrisy’ by people who are more aware, and honest with themselves. People who are not afflicted with psychoscotomas.
Bev, an anti-vaccination activist, clearly-and-convincingly demonstrated her psychoscotoma in at least three published statements: (1) “there is no back-up for this accusation against Larry Cook;” (2) “to suggest that Larry is a ‘double agent’ appears to be just over the top;” and (3) “it was just a matter of a clash of personalities and egos on the cruise ship.”
Diagnosing the Dissonance
Investigative journalist Sherri Kane, this author’s partner, responded to Bev by simply asking if she had actually read the referenced article.
Kane and I wondered if Bev had actually read the article. She replied that she did. So we were dumbfound considering why Bev could not SEE what we published, that was right before her eyes, including the photographic evidence and video footage too, proving what we had written about Larry Cook’s “double agency” was true.
Had Bev’s psychoscotoma prevented her from considering irrefutable evidence of Cook having concealed his hypocrisy, to this extreme point of denial?
To clarify, under these conflicting conditions, Larry had acted as a naturopathic organization’s lobbyist and anti-vaccination informant, targeting and capturing the consumer “market” in California. By so doing, Cook had captured in his data base (and e-mail list) the identities and contact information for the State’s leading anti-vaccination activists.
As activists, or citizens being damaged, should we simply turn a blind eye to Cook’s double agency, and the friendships Larry Cook established with others who had infiltrated our conference in “bad faith,” including lead Big Pharma propagandist Colin McRoberts associated with intelligence agencies including the McChrystal Group?
Larry befriended McRoberts who was clearly and convincingly assigned to further disparage Dr. Wakefield’s reputation along with the film VAXXED.
Had Bev’s psychoscotoma exercised its blindness, denial, and aversion in favor of genocide?
Reality Anti-Vaxxers Don’t Want to See
Most anti-vaxxers admit that the drug cartel is sustained mainly by the PharmaMedia. What most anti-vaxxers don’t want to see, or admit, is that commissioned infiltrators we call PharmaWhores and PharmaTrolls have infiltrated their ranks, consistent with standard social engineering policies and practices. This reality exists beyond the mainstream media and social media infiltrations. What Bev did not wish to see was that agents had allied with one of her role models, albeit double agent Larry Cook, to disparage this author, Ms. Kane, Dr. Wakefield, and other high profile whistleblowers during the now infamous Conspira-Sea cruise wherein Dr. Wakefield first premiered VAXXED.
Here, in the photo above for example, you can see Larry Cook (center) is seen moments after assaulting and battering this author (left) to prevent me from merely delivering a set of papers to a paparazzi agent commissioned by Hearst Corp.’s Popular Mechanics magazine to libel Wakefield. The man in the orange shirt to the right onlooking is Big PharmaTroll Colin McRoberts.
Notice McRoberts similarly stands in his orange shirt behind Hearst-paparazzi Dina Litovsky. Here again McRoberts is eavesdropping–gathering intelligence–for his daily reports that he published on his blog “Violent Metaphors;” and later reported on in the popular pro-vaccine magazine Wired. McRoberts actually is a subordinate intelligence agent of Stan McChrystal, who directs the McChrystal Group, a quasi-military private company protecting Big Pharma’s racketeering enterprise.
This “matter of clash between two personalities” is not what Bev surmised. So the question is why? What would make a reasonable, intelligent, anti-vaccination activist neglect the obvious?
Bev’s psychoscotoma compelled her to manufacture a reason to justify her disappointment that not everyone in the anti-vaccination movement can be trusted, or work together. Such ignorance about how the real world “game” operates from the top down–from Pharma Moguls down to activists brains–and associated activist denial, causes as much harm to people as the vaccines are causing. Because by denying reality, and being opposed to see the truth for what it is, the status quo is left killing people.
Frankly, “a clash of personalities and egos” fails to explain the evidence, nor the manner in which Larry Cook physically assaulted me, and later extorted me in threatening correspondence. Then, with supporters like Bev, Larry continues to divert from his concealment of his “double agency” and complicity in generating a physical confrontation with this author before the camera-clicking paparazzi and Colin McRoberts.
“I won’t address the gist of your lame considerations,” I wrote Bev, outraged by her psychoscotoma. “Only reply to your concern that truth may cause a ‘rift’ between the anti-vaxxers.
That rift was there when Jacobson v. Massachusetts was decided. “The idiotic side of the rift believes ‘not all vaccines are bad.’
“Who says that?
“Even Dr. Wakefield holds that position.”
Others, such as myself and Dr. Vera Scheibner call it what it is–genocide [administered by injection–‘Vaccinecide.’ Shall we say that the genocide damaging native Americans is more or less offensive than the Holocaust or Nigerian Civil War?
“Not one person,” I continued to write Bev, “can name one study that actually proved the safety of vaccines, even though there have been hundreds of studies that have contributed to the media’s foisted meme–virtual trance state–under which this lie is claimed to be true: “VACCINES ARE SAFE AND EFFECTIVE.”
The reason for this gross and outrageous lack of science and data analysis is, as you can read for example on the DTP vaccine package insert, that general physicians and the general public voluntarily report vaccine injuries. Thus, the data is restricted by special interests. The injury data is significantly compromised, and therefore, so is the integrity of the statement “vaccines are safe and effective.”
This form of institutionalized scientific fraud and evidence concealment accommodates the vaccinecide we are witnessing with skyrocketing rates of autism. To maintain and conceal the genocide, counter-intelligence agents, including PharmaWhores and PharmaTrolls are required and hired to debate ad neuseum whether whistleblowers are frauds; while deniers, like Bev remain clueless, in their psychoscotomas.
“So long as there are hypocrites among us in the ‘anti-vaccination movement,” I wrote Bev, “–people who fear for their jobs, money, and social status quo–the ‘rift’ you project onto me and Cook will remain caused by people like you.”
The hypocrites, like Larry Cook, who know in their hearts ALL VACCINES ARE RISKY, and ALL VACCINES ARE NOT EFFECTIVE, but in their heads suffer from psychoscotoma and related denial, are as much a problem for the health of civilization as the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation.
The author thanks veteran Australian anti-vaccination activist, Bev Pattenden, for her correspondence that raised this issue of divisiveness and psychoscotoma. This matter must be part of the “dialogue” Robert De Niro sought to prompt by booking VAXXED at the Tribeca. |
I've not really mentioned the rocketboom split, I only found out when I noticed nothing was not being downloaded since the start of July. So I checked out the site and read the announcement
Amanda Congdon has decided to move to L.A. to pursue opportunities that have arisen for her in Hollywood.
We wanted to meet her demands to move production out to L.A., however, we are a small company and have not been able to figure out a way to make it work, financially and in many other ways at this time. While we continue to remain with open arms, Amanda has in fact quit and left Rocketboom. So sadly, we bid Amanda adieu and wish her all the best.
Rocketboom goes on.
Andrew Baron, the founder and creator of Rocketboom, will stay with the company in New York and will continue to produce and direct the show. We are in the daunting process of recruiting a replacement for Amanda.
While Amanda will be sorely missed, we have big plans for Rocketboom and are determined to make the show better than ever.
After Field Week and a week on hiatus, we know that you are hungry for the news! Rocketboom will be back with a news episode and an interim host this MONDAY, JULY 10.
But of course I followed a selection of links from the blogosphere and hit across a selection of, well lets say views and insights. Bear in mind that at the time Technorati's number one search was Rocketboom and sixth Amanda Congdon. First up this great thought from Tom
Amanda Congdon teams up with Cory Doctorow and friends and produces BoingBoingBoom? Quick, someone with a fashionable blog, write about it and tell Nick Douglas – it's a meme-in-waiting!
According to the huffingtonpost Joanna Colan is going to replace Amanda.
And of course before long, a link to Amanda's unboomed site and the now famous upside down map videocan also be found here). Its also worth reading in full Amanda's for the record post and the 180+ comments. |
It took Michelle Anderson a month to create her E3 2019 outfit. It took her another hour to put it on. She wore a wig with red Afro puffs, an army-green tactical vest and fake bloodstained bandage. She completed the look with medical gloves and a mask looped around her neck, then took one last look in the mirror before she headed out the door. She was dressed as Lifeline, a playable combat medic from the video game “Apex Legends.”
Anderson is a cosplayer, a person who dresses up as a fictional character from a video game, book, or film. A portmanteau of “costume” and “play,” cosplay has been steadily growing in popularity as a hobby, and sometimes even a profession. Wherever fans congregate, be that on social media or at in-person conventions, cosplayers can be found dressed up, and sometimes even performing as, their favorite characters.
Anderson’s screen-accurate outfit, complete with a high-tech healing drone accessory, made a big impact on E3 2019 attendees.
“I even had a girl who was crying when she saw me, saying ‘I main you, can I take a picture with you?’” Anderson said. “That feeling is amazing. The warmth of the community is amazing.”
She had no idea it would be among the last times she would cosplay in public.
The following year, most of the United States went into lockdown to mitigate the covid-19 pandemic. As an essential front-line worker, Anderson didn’t have the privilege of staying home. Working in the San Francisco Bay area for a cable and Internet company, Michelle’s job was deemed critical to the new work-from-home paradigm. Each day she went to work wearing the same type of medical gloves from her Lifeline cosplay, but for a very different reason.
“I’m happy I was able to help other people work from home and stay safe,” she said. “But, and I’m getting emotional thinking about this, it was really stressful. I had to worry if I was going to get covid or not because I was seeing hundreds of people a day.”

To unwind from a job that was alternately exhausting and scary, she turned to her favorite hobby: cosplay. Anderson, like most cosplayers, was accustomed to planning her outfits around events. When they disappeared, she found herself adrift. But in that uncertain period, Anderson and other cosplayers around the country applied the same creativity they showed in making their costumes toward new ways to share them.
Ejen Chuang, a cosplay photographer and the author of Cosplay In America, said that based on his informal polls in the fandom, it wasn’t unusual for cosplayers to have pared down their participation during the pandemic. However, there have been a few opportunities over the past year: Even as some events took on a virtual format, a handful brought cosplay along with them. Hashtags like Anime Expo’s #MaskYourMasquerade and #DragonConGoesVirtual encouraged cosplayers to show off their looks and win prizes, even while they were staying safe at home.
Some cosplayers also found ways to meet safely in person during the pandemic. Chuang organized multiple socially-distanced photoshoots in his local Austin, Texas. By shooting with a long lens, he could photograph from six feet away or more while simulating proximity.
“You usually show the back of the camera to the cosplayer as you go,” he said, referring to the LCD screen found on the photographer’s side of a modern digital camera. “What I had to do was put my camera on a bench, walk six feet away, and then the cosplayer would look at the camera, give me feedback, walk away, and then I would pick it up again.”
For career cosplayers, the event-focused nature of the work threatened their livelihood. Professional cosplayers pay their bills with event appearances; cancellations mean canceled paychecks. Yaya Han, a professional cosplayer, needed to come up with a Plan B.
Since beginning as a hobbyist in her teens, Han has spent the past few decades perfecting her craft. Through a combination of paid event appearances, selling signed merchandise, designing cosplay patterns, fabric and trims for mass retail, and operating a cosplay accessories and materials store with three full-time employees (her husband and two fellow cosplayers) it is now her full-time job. Or it was, before everything changed.
“I really thought that my career was set,” Han said. “I’d just written a book introspecting on my past 20 years of cosplay. The pandemic has really upended my mind-set and made me think about what my next steps are.”
What came next gave Han “multiple tiers of dread and worry.” With family members living in China, she worried about their health and survival. With all of her cosplay appearances canceled, she was also worried about keeping her three employees paid. The pandemic also sparked a tinderbox of Anti-Asian sentiment in her home of Atlanta, Georgia. Han still avoids going out alone.

But most of all, Han was overwhelmed by the sheer loss of life. While she thought about what to do next, she began sewing face masks for elderly neighbors, and then delivering hundreds of them to her local hospitals. Since Han runs a cosplay shop where she sells supplies and handmade accessories for cosplayers, she already had a ready supply of the cotton fabric and elastic ties that could be difficult to source in the early days of the pandemic. Eventually, Han taught her employees to craft masks and began offering them in her shop alongside cosplay props. This helped keep the small business afloat.
“I realized I could either cut everyone’s hours, or I could teach them how to make face masks and figure out the system of working from home, avoiding each other, while still making this new product,” she said.
The other component of Han’s new career was a burgeoning new pandemic-based field of remote sponsored cosplay. In one example, Han was approached by a marketing team working with Capcom’s “Resident Evil Village,” a horror-focused shooter starring the villainous vampire Lady Dimitrescu. Han was given two weeks to create the outfit, design a background set, take pictures and video and post it to all of her social media with specified hashtags and phrasing. The process culminated in an 11-hour shoot with her husband and photographer Brian Boling. The company compensated her with a four-figure payment.
“It’s difficult to gauge your worth,” Han said. “I have all these years of experience negotiating conventions. But this brought me back to a starting point. I’m a noob again. I’m still learning.”
These days, when Han partners with a company, she signs a nondisclosure agreement before she even knows which character she will be cosplaying. That same NDA keeps her from sharing progress shots or discussing costume construction with other members of the cosplay community. It’s not clear how sustainable this new income stream will be moving forward, Han said.
“During the pandemic, a lot of these companies shifted to online promotions because they didn’t have events either,” she said. “Once events come back, will they even want me to do these types of collaborations?”
Despite all the changes and turmoil, Han remains hopeful. “I have survived more than 20 years,” she said. “I’m sure I will find a way to move forward.”
For hobbyists as well, social media replaced events as the ultimate destination to show off a costume. In the middle of 2020, Anderson joined the video-sharing social network TikTok and found a new way to network with other cosplayers. A video of Anderson modeling several of her cosplays to a Nicki Minaj song netted tens of thousands of views.
“Stuff like that kept me sane because it showed me that I was still able to have fun with my community, even in a pandemic,” said Anderson. “It kept my confidence up.”
Marie Chante Ramos, an ICU nurse and cosplayer, also turned to social media during the pandemic, though she didn’t have much time to post her costumes at first. Working night shifts at Raritan Bay Medical Center in Old Bridge, New Jersey, she saw so many covid-19 patients that the small hospital’s ICU was overflowing for months.
“When we got our first covid patient in the ICU, it was almost like war was coming,” Ramos said. “Even nurses who had 30-plus years of experience were shaken.”
Ramos found solace among fellow cosplayers in the health industry. In a group chat, she and others shared their experiences, encouragement and the occasional cosplay meme. One of the most popular memes in the early days of the pandemic was the #passthebrush challenge, in which participants simulate passing a makeup brush, briefly blotting out the screen with its bristles before revealing a dramatic cosplay transformation. That gave Ramos an idea. What if she and her friends did the same thing, but with a stethoscope?

“We are health care professionals, but we transform ourselves into whoever we want to be through cosplay. So I told the chat, ‘Hey, wouldn’t it be cool if we did a video in our PPE garb?’” Ramos said.
With their bodies concealed by head-to-toe PPE, Ramos knew that it was easy for patients and the public to see them as a faceless bloc instead of real people who were just as, if not more so, emotionally impacted by the daily loss of life. The resulting video, “Heroes behind the PPE,” shows Ramos and 22 other cosplayers sharing their dual roles as first responders and costumed heroes. At the time of this publication, the video has nearly half a million views.
“I liked being able to shine some light on these health care professionals who also have a creative side,” said Ramos. “The hospital isn’t the only thing going on in our lives.”

Of all the roles that David Tennant has played, Detective Inspector Alec Hardy in “Broadchurch” is perhaps the least likely to be associated with a catchphrase — and yet he has one. Or, at the very least, he acknowledges that when you think of Hardy, you think of him shouting “MILLAH!” in a strong Scottish accent.
It has significance to this reporter, given my byline, which was something I mentioned to Tennant when we spoke about the third and final season of the ultra-serious drama series. “I’m delighted,” he said when I told him how much I enjoyed the “MILLAH!” meme. “People shout it at me in the streets sometimes, actually,” Tennant said. “Which is a bit odd because it’s not actually my name. But it obviously pleases people for some reason.”
Tennant acknowledged that when you think about shows which might inspire catchphrases, “Broadchurch” is “not that type of show at all.” The dark and emotional series, created by Chris Chibnall, technically revolves around the horrific crimes investigated by Hardy and his semi-regular colleague Detective Sergeant Ellie Miller (the wonderful Olivia Colman, at whom Tennant is often shouting). Unlike your ordinary crime procedural, “Broadchurch” will focus on only one or two separate investigations over the course of many episodes. Over three seasons, that structure has put the focus on not just the question of whodunit, but how those affected are trying to survive the trauma that comes after.
Tennant and Colman are the focal points of “Broadchurch,” but over the course of three seasons they’ve been joined by an impressive array of notable actors, including Arthur Darvill, Phoebe Waller-Bridge, Charlotte Rampling, Lenny Henry, Eve Myles, Sarah Parish, Marianne Jean-Baptiste, and James D’Arcy. Below, Tennant reveals what it’s like to work with a cast on this level, why everyone involved isn’t fighting the decision to end the series with its third season, and how he dealt with bouncing between playing Hardy on “Broadchurch” and Scrooge McDuck on “DuckTales.”
What has the experience of “Broadchurch” been like? Because it’s been a part of your life for several years now.
Yeah, it’s sort of gone on and on. When we first got involved, it was a one-season deal. There was no notion that we were going to make any more. And then the first one just took off in a way that no one really saw coming, and Chris rather shyly says, “I could probably make this a trilogy, I’ve sort of got the stories in my head,” and we all said, “Well, oh OK, great.” Very happy to come back to this world and these characters and this particular way of telling stories, actually.
Because it’s not really like much else. It has a sort of peace to it and a way of examining characters that you don’t often get in TV drama. I don’t know in the U.S. — and this is just, of course, self-centered egotism — but I do often see things coming on the TV in the U.K. and thinking, “That’s a show that wouldn’t exist before ‘Broadchurch.'” It feels like it’s had an influence and I think that’s just because Chris created something very new and at the same time recognizably truthful and honest and something that just caught the public’s imagination. I’m hugely grateful to have been part of that story.
What’s so striking about it as a show is how everything is so grounded in humanity.
That’s a lovely opinion. I think that’s true. It’s not just about crime, it’s always been about the aftermath of crime and how that affects the lives of the people that are left behind. I think that’s always been an equally important element to the show, as the mechanics of the whodunit, which is undeniably a huge part of it, too. But it matters more because you’re invested in the cost of the crime that has taken place and the way that has wreaked havoc on people’s lives and the community’s life. And I think that’s been the great brilliance of the script, of all the scripts. I think it’s also what makes it live. The psychological veracity of it is really important. I think it’s what made us all so excited to sign up for the show in the first place. Not only was it a cracking thriller, but it was full of these characters that you could absolutely recognize and invest in. I think that’s when drama really comes to life.
Also, looking back at everyone who’s been a part of the cast, the fact that they’re all amazing talent in their own right is really impressive.
Oh yeah, it’s always managed to attract the most fantastic actors — all people you would expect to lead a TV show in their own right, and it’s been a real privilege to be amongst that. From Olivia and I’s point of view, we’ve always felt kind of smug because we got to act with everyone. We got to see everyone do their bit. And that was always such a pleasure actually, and we just really enjoy the “Oh, we’ve got so and so coming in to be interviewed today.” To get to play those scenes with some of the fabulous actors that we’ve had, some really well known faces, and then some brand new talent as well, you think these are people we’re gonna be seeing a lot of in the future. It all comes down to Chris Chibnall’s writing because that’s what attracts actors. Good writing is what makes people want to come to work. That’s how you get people who might more normally be leading series in their own right coming and playing juicy supporting roles because they can’t resist it.
Those interrogation scenes in particular must be part of the fun. When you know that you have one of those on the call sheet in the morning is that a fun day to show up at work?
Well of course, they can be quite grueling as well because they’re also very long scenes. They’re often very wordy scenes, and they’re often quite emotionally charged, so they’re not easy days at work. But they’re days that are very exciting because they’re often the dramatic turning points of the story and everyone is on their mettle to do their best work, and that’s very exciting to be around.
While you were working on “Broadchurch,” were you also popping in on other projects? Because you have a lot going on right now…
It’s quite intense, for Olivia and I. We’re in pretty much, not every single hour of every day, but we’re in it quite a lot. There’s not a lot of opportunity for any other big projects. I mean, I’d be doing the odd session of “DuckTales” or something, but it was a pretty intense few months.
What is it like bouncing between “Broadchurch” and “DuckTales?”
[laughs] Well you know, you just sort of do it, don’t you? You just kind of do the job that’s in front of you I suppose. You just find the tone. It’s all about finding the tone, I think.
Are people talking to you about a Hardy and Miller spinoff?
Ehm, I think that if something has the great fortune to be a success, I think there’s always inevitably talk of taking it further and doing more with it, but that was never the intention. Initially, we only thought we were doing one series, and when that expanded, it was, “We’ll do another two seasons and then that’s it.” There was always the expectation that we wouldn’t overdo it simply because there’s a plausibility issue. It’s a small town in the west of England, there just wouldn’t be that many appalling events going on there. After a certain point you’ve got to accept that that would stretch credibility.
For the sake of the truthfulness of the situation, we had to kind of walk away from it. I think the danger is it would impinge on the veracity of those characters, and I think that would be a real shame. So I don’t think anyone seriously talks about there being any kind of spinoff because I think we all know that that’s not what should happen. Certainly not anytime soon.
Is it nice to have the idea of an ending?
Yeah, of course. It’s nice to know that you’re choosing to walk away from something rather than the enthusiasm for it evaporating and having to shuffle off because nobody wants you anymore. And I think it’s quite good to stick to your guns on that, to not go “Oh, OK. One more season then.” For something that’s been such an important part of all of our lives, personally and professionally, I think it’s nice to know that you’ve served it well and you can walk away with your head held high. So I think right now, everyone feels like “Job well done, let’s not meddle.”
Beyond “Broadchurch,” it seems like you’ve gotten to do so much in recent years. Is there anything you haven’t done yet that you really want to do, something you’re looking forward to doing?
Well, you’re sort of always looking for the next thing, and you never quite know what that thing is until it presents itself. I don’t really think particularly tactically in terms of career choices, I sort of bumble from one to the next and I’ve been so far quite lucky that they’ve added up. I seem to be sort of managing to have a variety of different things, which seems to keep me happy.
“Broadchurch” Season 3 premieres Wednesday, June 28 at 10 p.m. |
We all have been going through pandemic shenanigans hoping for 2020 to give us at least something good to keep this year in good memories for the rest of our lives. But what has it given us? If your answer is ‘nothing’, then you obviously are missing out on a lot since the launch of Klothe Shop, an online clothing store saving lives of shopping freaks who couldn’t get out of their homes for the entire year.
If you didn’t know about Klothe Shop:
Klothe Shop is as the name is, an online clothing shop which offers customized clothes. Customers can either buy the products already made available on their website, or they can customize any available product with their own design. According to the testimonials and reviews received from the surveys, products from Klothe Shop are highly recommended specially for people who cannot find a design that they can wear, anywhere online. The delivery is worldwide, very fast and accurate. All you have to do is send your design to Klothe Shop and get your desired product at your doorstep.
Haziq Siddiqui, founder of Klothe Shop was spotted in one of the interviews online where he mentions ‘Petfection’ as a new calling late this year. We are not quite sure if this points to the launch being on New Year or before that but this is what gave us a clue,
“I really wanted to use #2021 in a meaningful way on the internet so I thought why not open a company to accomplish that”, his words in the interview.
Petfection is a child company of Klothe Shop which apparently will be selling apparel and accessories for pets. Yes! Now you don’t have to feel bad anymore ordering from Klothe for yourself and nothing for your pets.
He says, “Crying cat meme was just a meme until it wasn’t funny anymore. Cats, and all other pets shouldn’t be left with a poker face when you order for yourself and your pet just looks at you like, ‘where is my klothe?’”
This definitely is a moment to celebrate for all those proud customers who have been ordering from Klothe Shop leaving nothing but 5-star reviews. Now that Klothe has proven itself to be one of the most satisfying online stores in terms of quality, process and design, we are expecting a lot from Petfection as Klothe’s loyal customers.
We currently have no information regarding links, social media or online presence of Petfection, but we could get a little flash of the logo as you can see in the featured image attached to this article.
When asked to brief about the company services, he said, “Like parent like child”.
This doesn’t tell us a lot about the company process but gives us something to base our expectations on.
Petfection is going to be an online store that offers Free Worldwide Shipping just like Klothe Shop. It sells apparel and accessories for pets keeping in mind that there might be an addition to that when we talk about their catalogue. The quality will be 5-star as we keep their history in mind, with fast and accurate shipping and just-as-we-like return and refund policies.
There can be loads one can extend their expectations to. But we know for sure, is that it’s a company coming from a company which won hearts during the pandemic. Let’s hope this New Year will bring good not only for humans, but also our pets. |
Book Journey hosts this meme that gives you the opportunity to share the books that you have been losing yourself in lately and also the ones that you are looking forward to picking up next.
Here is what I finished:
The Sandcastle Girls by Chris Bohjalian! It is the first book I finished this year and it was amazing! What a great way to start a year of reading!
What I'm reading now:
Home Front by Kristin Hannah is our current book club selection, so that's what I'm reading now. Hannah has a way of tugging at the heart strings, and I don't expect this book to be any different.
The Secret of the Nightingale Palace by Dana Sachs, so this will be the next one on my list. I can't wait to see what this book has to offer!
So how about you? Have you been reading or listening to any great books lately? |
The thaw that never came
Damir Gainutdinov on the new repressive technologies shackling the Russian internet
On 3 September, Vladislav Sinitsa, a resident of Moscow, was sentenced to five years in prison for a tweet. It contained a comment on the campaign to deanonymise members of the security forces who had been beating protesters while hiding their faces behind masks and tinted helmets. Government experts found that the tweet incited violence against the children of the National Guard.
This prison sentence became one of the most severe sentences in the history of anti-extremist legislation in Russia: just a year less than the lower limit of punishment for premeditated murder. Sinitsa joins Boris Stomakhin, formerly a well-known columnist, who was sentenced for his support of Chechen separatists. Omsk activist Vadim Tyumentsev was sentenced to five years in prison for two videos on the war in Ukraine, and Tatar nationalist Rafis Kashapov received three years in prison for his publications on violations of the rights of Crimean Tatars and criticism of the annexation of Crimea.
After the relative thaw of 2018, it seems like frost has set in again.
The Russian authorities have been trying to control the Internet since 2012. During that time, they adopted dozens of laws imposing censorship, introducing liability for statements made on social networks, and limiting privacy and anonymity.
Almost 500,000 websites, including popular media, social networks and online services, have been blacklisted by Roskomnadzor (the Russian telecom regulator). The authorities are seriously discussing the possibility of blocking YouTube, and retweeting the news about a protest is punishable by up to 30 days of arrest or a fine of EUR 4,000.
Government officials have been obliged to inform their superiors of all social media accounts and have been banned from contacting journalists. When the evidence of Russian military involvement in eastern Ukraine was released via the news media, including involvement in the missile attack on flight MH17, servicemen were banned from carrying smartphones.
All this is being presented to citizens as a necessary measure to protect children, combat terrorism, and forestall the interference of foreign intelligence agencies in Russia’s internal affairs. In practice, this boils down to pressures on global online platforms; censorship of independent media; and repressions targeted at critics of the Kremlin. There are several underlying reasons.
First of all, it can be attributed to the rapid growth of Internet users, which multiplied 30 times in the first decade of the 21st century. (It has gone from three to almost 90 million people.) So total control over traditional media, something Vladimir Putin devoted his first term in office to, no longer guaranteed a monopoly on information. That allowed many online news outlets and blogs to exchange opinions and ideas; the dissemination of news appeared in the shadow of federal TV channels, without the government really noticing. However, this could not last for too long.
Soon it became clear that primitive content filtering at the level of Internet service providers did not work: users soon learned how to bypass blockages, and some companies even began to build tools to circumvent censorship directly into their products.
Therefore, starting around 2015, the government started to seriously tighten anti-extremist legislation and enforcement practices. Desperate to block unwanted news flow, the authorities attempted to intimidate those who distributed it. Increasingly, people began to receive real prison sentences for online extremism.
The Criminal Code provisions on extremism (primarily on the Internet) were moved into the category of medium seriousness or even grave crimes. As a result, it became possible to detain the accused before trial. It was possible to expand the statute of limitations for criminal liability and raise the time limit for the expungement of criminal convictions. Since that time, more than 150 people have been sent to jail for critical statements made on Facebook or Vkontakte. Most were sentenced under article 282 of the Russian Criminal Code (incitement to hatred or enmity, or humiliation of human dignity). Since 2011, a total of 2,850 people have been convicted under this article.
In addition to the real prospect of being put behind bars, an accusation of criminal extremism automatically means that the individual concerned is entered into the Federal Service list for financial monitoring and blocking all bank accounts; they will be allowed to spend no more than EUR 150 per month for subsistence, and will have to submit a request to the authorities to be allowed that. After their release from jail, ‘extremists’ are usually given administrative supervision for a period of up to eight years (with a ban on changing their place of residence without the consent of the authorities, and with the obligation to report to the police and other similar restrictions), and they are banned for life from working with minors, conducting business, and establishing political parties, the media and NGOs.
However, in mid-2018, significant changes took place in this area. Some news appeared in the media in a row about users from Barnaul being held criminally liable for pictures stored in their VKontakte albums. The city was called “the extremist capital of Russia”, and the case of Maria Motuzna was the final straw. At his annual press conference, Vladimir Putin said that the fight against extremism should not be taken “to the point of lunacy and absurdity” and the discussion on the limits of freedom of speech was joined not only by human rights activists and other activists, but also the authorities. The Supreme Court explained that in cases involving extremism it is necessary to take all circumstances into account: the context, the presence of comments, the user’s attitude, as well as the scale of dissemination of dangerous information. In October 2018, Vladimir Putin unexpectedly introduced amendments to the State Duma, adding administrative prejudgment in cases of incitement of hatred: at present, criminal liability occurs only if the citizen concerned was already brought to administrative liability for a similar act during the preceding year.
Despite the amendments coming into force in January 2019, criminal proceedings under Article 282 were virtually stopped in the autumn of 2018. Moreover, numerous proceedings that were already in progress, not only under this article, were actively discontinued. It seemed that a real thaw had begun.
Unfortunately, the thaw was, firstly, relative (at the same time, the Federal Security Service began to actively explore cases of people justifying terrorism and calling for extremism), and, secondly, short-lived. Already in the spring of 2019, the so-called “new administrative cases” began to spread actively: they involved cases of contempt for the authorities.
A few months earlier, the State Duma promptly and without any discussion adopted a set of laws. These included amendments to the article of the Code of Administrative Offences on petty hooliganism. A fine of up to EUR 2,500 or arrest for up to 15 days is imposed on people who express clear disrespect for the state and its symbols, authorities, as well as the Constitution of Russia in an insulting form and do it online.
Starting from April 2019, there have been at least 44 known cases under the new provision, and we can already talk about a certain tendency. First of all, Vladimir Putin is most commonly the object of disrespect: he has been criticised by citizens for his failures in domestic and foreign policy. News of the fines for insulting the President has triggered a flash mob, and the expression “fairytale leader” has become a meme and is unlikely to be forgotten soon.
Secondly, as a rule, Internet hooligans are found in Russia’s provincial territories: small towns or even villages, often located in the most remote regions, far from Moscow. There, even the minimum penalty in the form of a fine of EUR 500, which is most often imposed by district courts, is extremely significant and severe.
Thirdly, cases are initiated by various police units: district commissioners, transport departments and even those dealing with economic affairs. This is a clear indication that rank-and-file officers have discovered a promising area where they can easily improve their performance statistics.
And finally, the cases are considered quickly, without the participation of prosecutors or counsels for the defence, the hearing of witnesses or other formalities. This is due to the radically simplified procedure for administrative offences under the current Code. Cases of administrative extremism are not yet as widespread, but their number has been constantly growing. At the same time, the punishment for reoffenders in such cases is much harsher (for contempt: a fine from EUR 1,500 to 3,000 or arrest, and criminal liability for extremism).
Perhaps this is exactly the plan of the Russian authorities: on the one hand, to alleviate the public indignation because of absurd criminal cases about memes on VKontakte and, on the other hand, to create a more effective pressure mechanism. Citizens held liable under “political” legal provisions have their activities being put on preventive record, whether formally or informally, and their posts in social media are being constantly monitored by operating officers from the Centres for Countering Extremism so it is very easy to find an excuse to instigate a new case.
Undoubtedly, the authorities expect that activists who have been fined under the administrative procedure will be much quieter, facing the risk of criminal prosecution. And staying quiet is all that is expected of them. |

The first printed semicolon was the work of the Italian printer in Venice named Aldus Manutius the Elder in 1494. Manutius established the practice of using the semicolon to separate words of opposed meaning and to allow a rapid change in direction in connecting interdependent statements.
A famous quote by Lynne Truss, (Eats, Shoots, and Leaves) states, “Just as there are writers who worship the semicolon, there are other high stylists who dismiss it – who label it, if you please, middle-class.” – https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Semicolon
Who knew a semicolon had such a life!
Wouldn’t it be wonderful if your work in life was limited to things like arguing about the value of semicolons? Oh, I knew there was an easier employment path than the one I chose! Well, my negligent and reckless career decision is now a speck in my life’s rearview mirror.
Now, the modern use of semicolons is to join two independent clauses without using a conjunction like and. As an example from Grammarly.com: We can go to the museum to do some research; Mondays are pretty quiet there.
So how does a semicolon provide value to us in our walk with Jesus? “This is also why you pay taxes, for the authorities are God’s servants, who give their full time to governing. Give to everyone what you owe them: If you owe taxes, pay taxes; if revenue, then revenue; if respect, then respect; if honor, then honor.” – Romans 13:6-7 NIV
Christianity requires our full attention.
There’s no doubt that our walk as Christians requires our full attention. I find myself quickly sucked into Facebook memes that people send me. Some are pure entertainment, while others are funny but run contrary to the will of God.
Paying taxes and revenue are generally not too challenging for us, it’s those last two semicolon commands that trip us up.
Show respect. Show honor. These two are not limited to when we are in the presence of a person. No, we need to do these two even when no one is around – that’s part of our character. It can be difficult when we read a meme or watch a video or see a caricature that is truly funny but is disrespectful or dishonors a person or people or a country or whatever.
We will be giving an account.
Romans 14:10-12 (ESV):
Why do you pass judgment on your brother? Or you, why do you despise your brother? For we will all stand before the judgment seat of God; for it is written,
“As I live, says the Lord, every knee shall bow to me,
and every tongue shall confess to God.”
So then each of us will give an account of himself to God.
Enjoy your reading and online activities but don’t let your guard down. Jesus is watching (really).

Over the past few decades, the modern American definition of family has expanded to include single parents, same-sex couples, live-in extended relatives, and other members beyond the nuclear family. But the animal kingdom has long boasted a diverse assortment of family units.
Birds are a prime example, with species that use a variety of strategies to care for their young. For instance, 9% of bird species, called cooperative breeders, include birds that don’t reproduce but instead live with and protect their extended families.1 On the other side of the spectrum, species called brood parasites opt not to care even for their own biological offspring and instead drop their eggs in other birds’ nests.2
A recent study published in Science sheds light on these unique reproductive strategies by analyzing the global distribution of superb fairy wrens, which are cooperative breeders, and cuckoos, brood parasites that target the wrens.1 Ecologists from Australia National University and the University of Melbourne found that fairy wren families with more extended relatives in their nests more effectively warded off the cuckoos who tried to freeload off them. The wrens appeared to be living in large units to create a stronger defense against brood parasites, so that their own families’ children got the attention they needed to thrive.
Upon a broader look, the scientists found that cooperative breeders like fairy wrens and brood parasites like cuckoos tend to cluster in the same geographic areas. A likely reason for this distribution is that cooperative breeding has co-evolved with brood parasitism as a defense mechanism.(a) Evidence for this conclusion is provided by observed differences between bird families in the same location that correlate with the level of threat posed by brood parasites. For example, in southern Africa, 28% of bird species targeted by cuckoos live in extended families, compared to only 8% of the species that do not have to deal with freeloaders. The proximity of the two types of breeders also appears to benefit the parasites by providing a stronger nurturing environment for eggs that make it through cooperative breeders’ lines of defense.
Hawaii’s albatrosses present another example of a bird species in which caretaking is not always provided by biological parents.4 Scientists recently discovered that about a third of albatross pairs on Oahu are of the same sex, a pattern particular to this island.(b) They were puzzled that most of these same-sex pairs were female, even though females with male partners produced more surviving offspring.
The reasons for this reproductive strategy became clearer when the researchers considered the sex imbalance of Oahu’s albatross population.4 Albatrosses recently migrated to the island from other colonies, and for whatever reason, many more females than males settled on Oahu. Since there were not enough fathers to go around for every egg on the island, the females developed a strategy in which they took turns co-parenting each other’s young. This way each bird, despite having fewer children, has help raising these children.
The albatross’ motive is clear: the arrangement is reciprocal, and each parent gets her turn to produce and rear biological offspring. But what about the wrens? Scientists have spent years asking why many animals show investment in the survival of individuals other than themselves and their own offspring. The concept of the selfish gene, coined by Richard Dawkins, offers a compelling explanation.(c)
According to Dawkins’ theory, a gene’s primary function is to propagate itself, not necessarily its owner.5 Natural selection favors genes that copy themselves and ensure that these copies survive to replicate again. These genes are not just in the host organism, but also in members of the organism’s family. For example, your siblings, parents, and children each have half your genes; your aunts, uncles, nieces, nephews, grandparents, and grandchildren each have one quarter; and your cousins have one eighth.(d)
This perspective on genes explains the development of kin selection, whereby an organism acts to contribute to the survival and reproductive success of family members, even at its own expense. The selfish gene may also explain animals that make huge sacrifices for entire colonies.(e) For example, when a predator approaches a prairie dog colony, one prairie dog will make a loud noise to warn the rest, putting itself at risk but saving its community – a community that likely contains many of its genes.7
When we discuss evolution, we often personify genes as having the goal and desire to replicate themselves. But genes don’t have intentions; they are simply subject to natural selection. In the case of kin selection, a behavioral trait that drives an organism to protect its relatives stays in the gene pool because, by encouraging the survival of organisms that are related to the carrier of the gene and therefore likely share that gene, it selects for itself. In other words, if a gene contributes to cooperative breeding behaviors, and family members who benefit from these behaviors share the gene, then this gene is more likely to propagate.
Putting the gene at the center has spawned new ways of thinking about evolution.(f) When Darwin first identified evolutionary principles like natural selection, the organism was the unit portrayed as striving to survive and reproduce. But cooperative breeding and other forms of kin selection suggest that evolution is more about survival of the fittest gene than survival of the fittest organism. From the gene’s perspective, the organism is merely a vehicle for its own survival and propagation.

- (a) In this type of co-evolution, known as an evolutionary arms race, each species evolves mechanisms to outsmart the other. For example, another defense mechanism in hosts targeted by brood parasites is the ability to distinguish between the invaders’ eggs and their own offspring. In turn, the parasites evolve to produce eggs that look like their hosts’. Some cuckoos have even developed the instinct to destroy the nests of birds that discard cuckoo eggs.3

In all the uproar over how tech companies have handled an unsubstantiated article about Hunter Biden from the New York Post, one major company has stood apart: YouTube.
It has said nothing. And what it has done, if anything, remains a mystery.
On Wednesday, the New York Post uploaded a one-minute, 17-second video highlighting the key points of the article to its YouTube channel, which has more than 430,000 subscribers. For most of that day, users who searched for “Hunter Biden” on YouTube saw the video at the top of the site’s “Top News” shelf. As of midday Thursday, the video had 100,000 views — a respectable figure but certainly not the stuff of viral videos.
In recent years, YouTube has made changes to its “recommendation algorithm” for what it calls borderline content — the types of videos that toe the line between what is acceptable on the platform and what it considers to violate its policies. As a result of those changes, YouTube limits such content from being recommended and keeps the videos from appearing prominently in search results or on its home page.
It is not clear whether YouTube deemed the New York Post video borderline. On Thursday the company said no more than that it evaluates content against its policies, and that it was monitoring videos about the article closely.
The response from YouTube stood in sharp contrast to the immediate and public reaction from Facebook and Twitter. Facebook said it would limit the distribution of the article on its platform so that third-party fact checkers could verify the claims. Twitter said it was blocking the article because it included people’s personal information, violating its privacy rules, and because the article violated its policy on hacked materials.
The Senate Judiciary Committee plans to subpoena Jack Dorsey, Twitter’s chief executive, to testify on Oct. 23 regarding the company’s decision to block the article. Mr. Dorsey, along with Mark Zuckerberg of Facebook and Sundar Pichai of Google, are also scheduled to testify on Oct. 28 about Section 230, the law that shields technology companies from being held liable for some of the content published by its users.
While the number of views on the New York Post video remain subdued, videos related to the article have done extremely well. A Fox Business interview with Stephen K. Bannon, a former White House adviser who played a role in the article, got more than 275,000 views. An interview on Fox News with Kayleigh McEnany, the White House press secretary, about getting locked out of her Twitter account after sharing the Post story garnered 795,000 views.
This week, President Trump exaggerated a position taken by the World Health Organization, saying that the agency had vindicated his derision of lockdowns during the coronavirus pandemic.
“The World Health Organization just admitted that I was right,” the president tweeted. “Lockdowns are killing countries all over the world. The cure cannot be worse than the problem itself.”
The World Health Organization just admitted that I was right. Lockdowns are killing countries all over the world. The cure cannot be worse than the problem itself. Open up your states, Democrat governors. Open up New York. A long battle, but they finally did the right thing!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 12, 2020
Mr. Trump’s message was rapidly shared by thousands online, including the commentator Lou Dobbs and Representative Andy Biggs, Republican of Arizona, who echoed the president’s rallying cry to “open up” and described the closings as “pseudoscientific” and “tyrannical.”
Since the early days of the pandemic, the president has dismissed lockdowns as unnecessary and harmful, even while the virus continued to blaze across the nation.
Mr. Trump did not say which W.H.O. statement he was referring to. But one of the few published recent comments from a W.H.O. official about lockdowns came from David Nabarro, one of several envoys to the organization on Covid-19.
“We in the World Health Organization do not advocate lockdowns as the primary means of control of this virus,” Dr. Nabarro said earlier this month to the British magazine The Spectator. “The only time we believe a lockdown is justified is to buy you time to reorganize, regroup, rebalance your resources, protect your health workers who are exhausted. But by and large, we’d rather not do it.”
“We really do appeal to all world leaders, stop using lockdown as your primary method of control,” Dr. Nabarro said.
Dr. Nabarro described several potential tolls of widespread lockdowns, which have set off economic declines and higher unemployment rates, and have widened disparities in many parts of the world, including the United States.
Dr. Nabarro has also noted that lockdowns may be necessary under some circumstances. In addition, he has advocated for a multifaceted approach to curbing the spread of the coronavirus — a strategy he recently outlined in a written reflection that highlighted the importance of physical distancing, mask-wearing, accessible testing and contact tracing, among other measures, to pinpoint and suppress outbreaks.
In a statement, Hedinn Halldorsson, a spokesman for the W.H.O., reaffirmed that the pandemic needed to be addressed with such a “package” of protective tactics.
“W.H.O. has never advocated for national lockdowns as a primary means for controlling the virus,” he said. “Dr. Nabarro was repeating our advice to governments to ‘do it all.’”
Some countries, like New Zealand, used lockdowns to great success to tame their outbreaks. Others, like South Korea, were able to circumvent them by pushing hard on testing. All success stories, however, have one thing in common: swift action to acknowledge and beat back the virus.
Lockdowns are extreme, and inevitably come with costs, said Syra Madad, a public health expert and epidemiologist based in New York. But they can afford communities much-needed time to ready other methods of containment.
“Had the U.S. been better prepared and responded faster,” Dr. Madad said, perhaps “lockdowns could have been avoided.”

Falsehoods about election interference are swirling online, stoking calls for violence on Election Day. The rumors touch on everything from ballot boxes to how the “deep state” — a so-called secret cabal of elites — is involved.
The misinformation is worrying researchers who track such content, and who said the volume of lies online had soared. Some of the individual lies are shared only dozens or hundreds of times each, but added together they have attracted millions of likes and shares across social media and are inflaming an already tense electorate, the researchers said.
Election-related misinformation has “been building up virality, using Facebook pages and groups as fertile ground,” said Fadi Quran, a campaign director at Avaaz, a progressive human rights nonprofit that studied some of the rumors.
Here is a sampling of some of the falsehoods making the rounds online ahead of Election Day.
A Democrat-led Coup
The baseless idea of a Democrat-led coup against President Trump has gained the most traction among election-related rumors about violence, according to Avaaz. A New York Times analysis found at least 938 Facebook groups, 279 Facebook pages, 33 YouTube videos and hundreds of tweets spreading the falsehood, mostly in right-wing circles.
On Sept. 14, Dan Bongino, a popular right-wing commentator and radio host, posted a Facebook video pushing the rumor. It was viewed 2.9 million times.
In a text message, Mr. Bongino said the idea of a Democratic coup was “not a rumor” and that he was busy “exposing LIBERAL violence.”
Some election-related lies are also circulating among left-wing groups. For instance, a left-wing Facebook page called The Other 98% posted in August that mailboxes were being blocked by unknown actors to effectively discourage people from voting. The post with the false claim collected 39,000 likes and comments on the social network and reached 18 million people, according to CrowdTangle, a Facebook-owned tool for analyzing social media.
In total, voting-by-mail rumors have topped election misinformation this year, according to a September analysis by the media insights company Zignal Labs. Nearly a fourth of all the mentions last month about voting by mail on television, in print and in online news — or 3.1 million mentions — amounted to misinformation, Zignal Labs found.
The Covid ‘Scamdemic’
Another election falsehood spreading on Facebook is the notion that an elite cabal, or “deep state,” was interfering with the vote by inventing the coronavirus pandemic.
One post from August that got 795 likes and comments on Facebook was a meme with the caption, “The Covid scamdemic was devised by the Deep State to promote the use of ballots by mail. This is the way the Democrats can create massive election fraud.”
This lie is representative of how the “deep state” is portrayed online as responsible for all sorts of ills against President Trump. In another rumor, the deep state is bent on destroying ballots voting for Mr. Trump. And the deep state is also represented online as being intent on falsifying votes in favor of Mr. Trump’s Democratic opponent, Joseph R. Biden Jr.
A ‘Civil War’ on Election Day
Another widespread rumor is that a “civil war” is being planned and will erupt on Election Day. The baseless idea is showing up on sites like that of Glenn Beck, the former Fox News host and conspiracy theorist, according to a Times analysis. Mr. Beck’s Facebook page, which has three million followers, has also pushed the rumor.
Mr. Beck did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
“If Trump wins the election BLM and antifa are going to burn this country down,” said another post on a pro-gun Facebook page, referring to the Black Lives Matter racial justice protesters and antifa, a loose collective of far-left activists. “If Biden wins they come for your freedom and your guns. Either way a War is coming. Are you ready?”
The posts about a looming civil war aim to create an atmosphere of fear so that voters are deterred from voting on Election Day, misinformation experts said.

Facebook on Tuesday said it would no longer allow anti-vaccination ads on its platform, in another reversal of its longtime stance of avoiding being the referee on thorny issues.
Facebook had previously shied away from stepping into debates over public health, even as anti-vaccination content on its site proliferated. But this year, it took a stand against false information related to the coronavirus to prevent public harm. It also has removed vaccine-related hoaxes that were identified by global health organizations.
In its updated policy on Tuesday, Facebook went further. The company said it would no longer permit people or entities to purchase ads that actively discourage people from getting vaccinated, or that portray vaccines as unsafe, useless or use other harmful descriptions.
“Our goal is to help messages about the safety and efficacy of vaccines reach a broad group of people, while prohibiting ads with misinformation that could harm public health efforts,” said Kang-Xing Jin, Facebook’s head of health initiatives, in a company blog post. “We don’t want these ads on our platform.”
Facebook, which has been under pressure for allowing toxic and harmful misinformation to flow across its site, has lately banned an increasing amount of content. On Monday, the company said that it would no longer accept posts that denied the existence of the Holocaust. Last week, the company expanded a crackdown on the pro-Trump conspiracy movement QAnon and also said that it would suspend political advertising after the Nov. 3 election for an unspecified period of time.
The number of content and ad bans stands out because Mark Zuckerberg, Facebook’s chief executive, has long said that he is a proponent of free speech and of allowing all types of content to be posted on the social network. Facebook did not address its position on free speech on Tuesday.
Facebook has faced scrutiny for the amount of conspiracy theories and propaganda against vaccinations. Those who are against vaccines have been highly active on Facebook, operating in private Facebook groups and Instagram accounts. Tuesday’s move will not remove user-generated content.
The company also will still allow ads that argue against creating government policies for vaccination, but the entities running those ads will need to be “authorized,” Facebook said. Those ads will include a “paid for” label along with the name of the organization.
Mr. Jin also said Facebook will elevate posts from partners at the World Health Organization and UNICEF to increase immunization rates through public health messaging campaigns.
The social network positioned its policy change as part of the regular re-evaluations of content across the site.
“We regularly refine our approach around ads that are about social issues to capture debates and discussions around sensitive topics happening on Facebook,” Mr. Jin said in the blog post. “Vaccines are no different. While we may narrow enforcement in some areas, we may expand it in others.”

An overwhelming body of evidence continues to affirm that the coronavirus almost certainly made its hop into humans from an animal source — as many, many other deadly viruses are known to do.
But since the early days of the pandemic, experts have had to fight to combat misinformed rumors that the coronavirus emerged from a lab as part of a sinister scientific project.
Last week, yet another piece of unfounded and misleading prose entered the fray: a study, posted online but not published in a peer-reviewed scientific journal, contending that the virus is artificial and an “unrestricted bio-weapon” released by Chinese researchers.
The manuscript also baselessly denounced several parties, including policymakers, scientific journals and even individual researchers, for censoring and criticizing the lab-made hypothesis, accusing them of deliberate obfuscation of fact and “colluding” with the Chinese Communist Party.
Though scientists immediately condemned the study as disreputable and dangerous, it rapidly commanded a storm of social media attention, garnering more than 14,000 likes on Twitter and more than 12,000 retweets and quote-tweets within days of its posting. Shared on Facebook, Twitter and Reddit, it reached millions of users, and was covered in at least a dozen articles written in several languages.
The paper’s findings, however, have no basis in science.
“It’s ridiculous and unfounded,” said Angela Rasmussen, a virologist at Columbia University who criticized the study on Twitter the day it was released. “It’s masquerading as scientific evidence, but really it’s just a dumpster fire.”
The publication is the second in a series from a team led by Li-Meng Yan, a Chinese scientist who released an initial paper on Sept. 14, also not peer-reviewed, asserting that the coronavirus was synthetic. Dr. Yan’s background is a little murky. She left her position as a postdoctoral research fellow at Hong Kong University for undisclosed reasons some time ago, according to a July statement from the institution, and fled to the United States. Both papers list Dr. Yan and her co-authors as affiliated with the Rule of Law Society, a nonprofit whose founders include Steve Bannon, a former White House chief strategist, who has since been charged in an unrelated case of fraud.
“That alone should give people pause,” Dr. Rasmussen said of the team’s connection to Mr. Bannon’s nonprofit.
Dr. Yan and her colleagues did not respond to a request for comment.
Their original paper — known as “the Yan report” — was also seized upon by thousands online and reported on in The New York Post, even though experts rapidly debunked its findings. Researchers called it unscientific and said it ignored the wealth of data pointing to the virus’s natural origins.
Close relatives of the new coronavirus exist in bats. The virus may have moved directly into people from bats, or first jumped into another animal, such as a pangolin, before transitioning into humans. Both scenarios have played out before with other pathogens.
“We have a very good picture of how a virus of this kind could circulate and spill over into human beings,” said Brandon Ogbunu, a disease ecologist at Yale University.
It may take quite some time to pinpoint exactly which animals harbored the virus along this chain of transmission, if scientists ever do at all — inevitably leaving some parts of the virus’s origin story ambiguous. Like many other conspiracy theories, the lab-made hypothesis “exploits the open questions in an ongoing investigation,” Dr. Ogbunu said.
But there is no evidence so far to support a synthetic source for the virus.
Dr. Yan’s Twitter account was suspended in September 2020 for pushing coronavirus disinformation. She shared the “second Yan report” from a second Twitter account, which has gained more than 34,000 followers.
Together, the papers written by Dr. Yan and her colleagues lay out what they identified as abnormalities in the genome sequence of the coronavirus. They suggested that those unusual features indicated that the virus’s genome had been purposefully spliced together and modified, using the genetic material from other viruses — a sort of Frankenstein’s monster pathogen, Dr. Yan told Fox News in September. The cousins of the coronavirus that had been identified in bats, they said, were also fake, human-made constructions, thus supposedly quashing the natural origin hypothesis.
The authors also contended that the coronavirus’s genome had been manipulated by scientists to enhance the virus’s ability to infect human cells and cause disease.
But outside experts have found no validity in either Yan report. The first was “full of contradictory statements and unsound interpretations” of genetic data from viruses, said Kishana Taylor, a virologist at Carnegie Mellon University.
And the second Yan report “was even more unhinged than the first,” said Gigi Kwik Gronvall, a senior scholar at the Johns Hopkins Center for Health Security and an author of a response debunking the original Yan report.
The supposedly strange features found in the genomes of the coronavirus and its natural relatives aren’t actually red flags at all, Dr. Ogbunu said. Viruses frequently move between animal hosts, changing their genetic material along the way — sometimes even swapping hunks of their genomes with other viruses. And many of the purported abnormalities in the coronavirus are found in other virus genomes.
The notion that the coronavirus was “designed” to be dangerous is also “just nonsense,” Dr. Ogbunu said. Scientists don’t know enough about viruses to predict which mutations would increase their lethality, let alone engineer these changes into new pathogens in the lab.
Building the coronavirus from such a mishmash of genetic templates, as described by Dr. Yan and her colleagues, would also raise herculean logistical hurdles for even the most dogged scientists. Part of this process would require researchers to laboriously tinker with thousands of individual letters in the alphabet soup that is a virus’s genome — an absurdly inefficient scientific strategy, Dr. Rasmussen said.
“Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence,” Dr. Rasmussen said. “And this is not that.”

President Trump owes a lot of money: hundreds of millions of dollars of it.
Whom he owes it to has been the subject of countless conspiracy theories. Lately, liberals and other social media accounts have been spreading rumors, presented as fact, that he owes it to the Kremlin or Russian oligarchs.
After The New York Times reported that Mr. Trump’s federal tax returns showed that he had personally guaranteed $421 million of debt, questions about who lent him all this money have reached the upper echelons of the Democratic Party. “It’d be really good to know who the president of the United States, the commander-in-chief, owes money to, because the American people have a right to know what is influencing the president’s decisions,” Senator Kamala Harris said at last week’s vice-presidential debate.
The answers are not hard to come by.
According to Mr. Trump’s latest financial disclosure report, filed with the U.S. Office of Government Ethics, he owes at least $135 million to a smattering of small financial institutions such as Ladder Capital. His biggest creditor — to whom Mr. Trump owes well over $300 million — is Deutsche Bank. From 2012 through 2015, the scandal-plagued German bank lent Mr. Trump money for his Doral golf resort in Florida ($125 million), his hotel in Washington ($170 million) and his skyscraper in Chicago (at least $45 million).
Why on earth would Deutsche Bank have lent hundreds of millions to Mr. Trump given his track record of stiffing his lenders, including Deutsche Bank itself?
One conspiracy theory is that Deutsche Bank agreed to make the loans because they were backstopped by Russians — the Kremlin or a state-owned bank or an oligarch. If Mr. Trump were to default, it would be the Russians, not Deutsche Bank, on the hook for the losses.
Another, related claim is that after Deutsche Bank made the loans, it sold chunks of them to Russians. It is common for large loans to be syndicated or securitized — in other words, chopped up and sold to investors. In the late 1990s through the mid-2000s, Deutsche Bank did this with some of its large loans to Mr. Trump.
Under this theory, the president would owe the money to Russians, not the German bank.
There is a certain logic to this. Russians interfered on Mr. Trump’s behalf in the 2016 election. Deutsche Bank is the only mainstream financial institution that’s been consistently willing to do business with Mr. Trump. And Deutsche Bank for decades has had close ties to Russia and has facilitated money laundering for wealthy Russians.
But the theories don’t hold up.
Deutsche Bank didn’t chop up and sell the latest batch of debt — the only portion that is still outstanding, according to bank officials with direct knowledge of the transactions. The loans remain on Deutsche Bank’s books.
It is true that Deutsche Bank was willing to lend to Mr. Trump when few others would. But there is an explanation. To overcome the bank’s wariness, Mr. Trump agreed to personally guarantee most of the debt on all of the loans. That meant that if he defaulted, Deutsche Bank could seize his personal assets, as The Times has previously reported.
The result was that the loans would generate fees and interest payments for Deutsche Bank but would entail little financial risk.
Deutsche Bank remains a vast repository for Mr. Trump’s financial secrets, and the president’s lawyers have spent more than a year fighting against congressional subpoenas for the bank’s records related to Mr. Trump. It is not impossible that evidence will emerge that muddies this picture.
For now, though, it isn’t very complicated.

In 2018, Facebook’s chief executive, Mark Zuckerberg, famously cited Holocaust deniers in a fumbled attempt to make a point about free speech.
At the time, he said the deniers — those who reject or distort the Holocaust, a genocide in which millions of Jews and others were killed by Nazis and their collaborators during World War II — were a key example of people whom he personally disagreed with. But, he said, he did not think Facebook should censor or remove what they posted “because I think there are things that different people get wrong.”
On Monday, Mr. Zuckerberg announced he was reversing his decision. Facebook, he said, would now ban content that “denies or distorts the Holocaust.”
In announcing the change, Facebook cited a recent survey that found that nearly a quarter of American adults ages 18 to 39 said they believed the Holocaust either was a myth or was exaggerated, or they weren’t sure whether it happened.
“I’ve struggled with the tension between standing for free expression and the harm caused by minimizing or denying the horror of the Holocaust,” Mr. Zuckerberg wrote in his blog post. “Drawing the right lines between what is and isn’t acceptable speech isn’t straightforward, but with the current state of the world, I believe this is the right balance.”
Mr. Zuckerberg has repeatedly said that he does not want Facebook to be an arbiter of free speech. The Silicon Valley company has faced plenty of criticism for that stance, including from civil rights groups who have said Facebook has allowed toxic speech and misinformation to flow unchecked on its site. Many have called for Mr. Zuckerberg to rethink his position.
More recently, the social network has become more proactive about removing some content, including banning the QAnon conspiracy movement and taking a stronger line against hate and vigilante groups. Facebook has said it has made some of the changes because QAnon has been linked to real-world harm and vigilante groups have been arrested for violent acts.
Facebook did not immediately respond to a request for comment on whether it was re-evaluating its stance on free speech.

During the 2016 presidential election, Russian operatives used Facebook, Instagram, Twitter and other social media platforms to spread disinformation to divide the American electorate. Since then, the social media companies have spent billions of dollars and hired tens of thousands of people to help clean up their act.
But have the platforms really become more sophisticated at handling misinformation?
People are engaging more on Facebook today with news outlets that routinely publish misinformation than they did before the 2016 election, according to new research from the German Marshall Fund Digital, the digital arm of the public policy think tank. The organization, which has a data partnership with the start-up NewsGuard and the social media analytics firm NewsWhip, published its findings on Monday.
In total, Facebook likes, comments and shares of articles from news outlets that regularly publish falsehoods and misleading content roughly tripled from the third quarter of 2016 to the third quarter of 2020, the group found.
About two thirds of those likes and comments were of articles published by 10 outlets, which the researchers categorized as “false content producers” or “manipulators.” Those news outlets included Palmer Report and The Federalist, according to the research.
The group used ratings from NewsGuard, which ranks news sites based on how they uphold nine journalistic principles, to sort them into “false content producers,” which repeatedly publish provably false content; and “manipulators,” which regularly present unsubstantiated claims or that distort information to make an argument.
“We have these sites that masquerade as news outlets online. They’re allowed to,” said Karen Kornbluh, director of GMF Digital. “It’s infecting our discourse and it’s affecting the long-term health of the democracy.”
Andy Stone, a Facebook spokesman, said that analyzing likes, shares and comments to draw conclusions was “misleading” because the data does not capture what most people see on Facebook. The social network does not make other data, such as the reach of posts, publicly available; engagement data is the only information it provides.
Ms. Kornbluh said Facebook users engaged more with articles from all news outlets this year because the coronavirus pandemic forced people to quarantine indoors. But the growth rate of likes, shares and comments of content from manipulators and false content producers exceeded the interactions that people had with what the researchers called “legitimate journalistic outlets,” such as Reuters, Associated Press and Bloomberg.
Ms. Kornbluh said social media firms face a conundrum because their businesses rely on viral content to bring in users, who they can then show ads to. Tamping down on misinformation “just runs against their economic incentives,” she said.

Here at Daily Distortions, we try to debunk false and misleading information that has gone viral. We also want to give you a sense of how popular that misinformation is, in the overall context of what is being discussed on social media. Each Friday, we will feature a list of the 10 most-engaged stories of the week in the United States, as ranked by NewsWhip, a firm that compiles social media performance data. (NewsWhip tracks the number of reactions, shares and comments each story receives on Facebook, along with shares on Pinterest and by a group of influential users on Twitter.)
The mainstream news cycle this week was dominated by the fallout from President Trump’s Covid-19 hospitalization, the collapse of coronavirus-relief stimulus talks and the debate between Senator Kamala Harris and Vice President Mike Pence.
But on social media, the death of the rocker Eddie Van Halen made more of a splash. So did articles about Mr. Pence’s opposition to abortion and a trolling campaign waged against the Proud Boys, the extremist right-wing group mentioned during last week’s presidential debate, by gay men who flooded the #ProudBoys hashtag with pro-gay posts.
Here is an annotated list of the 10 most-engaged news stories of the past seven days.
1. TMZ: Eddie Van Halen Dead at 65 (3,504,366 interactions)
TMZ broke the news of Mr. Van Halen’s death, after what it described as a battle with lung cancer that went “massively downhill.”
2. NBC News: Trump kills stimulus talks, tweets no deal until ‘after I win’ election (3,069,835 interactions)
Mr. Trump’s decision to end stimulus talks was the second-most-engaged story of the week. He has since backtracked from the position.
3. New York Post: Eddie Van Halen, rock guitar god, dead of throat cancer at 65 (2,150,021 interactions)
4. The Los Angeles Times: Eddie Van Halen, grinning guitar god for a rock generation, dies at 65 (1,791,539 interactions)
5. The Washington Times: Netflix indicted on child porn charges over ‘Cuties’ (1,190,841 interactions)
The controversy surrounding “Cuties,” a documentary that some critics — including believers in the QAnon conspiracy theory — accused of sexualizing underage girls, escalated this week after a grand jury in Tyler County, Texas, charged Netflix with promoting lewdness.
6. CNBC: Mike Pence on Supreme Court nomination and Roe v. Wade: ‘I’m pro-life. I don’t apologize for it’ (1,112,253 interactions)
Mr. Pence’s comments about Roe v. Wade during the vice-presidential debate went viral after Franklin Graham, a conservative evangelical with an enormous Facebook following, shared them.
7. Variety: Eddie Van Halen Dies at 65 (1,104,550 interactions)
8. Forbes: The Proud Boys Are Furious That Gay Men Have Taken Over #ProudBoys On Twitter (1,097,261 interactions)
A social media movement to troll the Proud Boys with positive depictions of gay men got tons of attention this week, after it was shared by left-wing Facebook accounts including The Other 98% and the Democratic Coalition Against Trump.
9. Rolling Stone: Eddie Van Halen, Hall of Fame Guitarist Who Revolutionized Instrument, Dead at 65 (1,067,982 interactions)
10. The New York Times: ‘We Need to Take Away Children,’ No Matter How Young, Justice Dept. Officials Said (1,042,578 interactions)
The Times’s investigation of top Justice Department officials who pushed for a child separation immigration policy got more than a million interactions after it was shared by popular left-wing accounts including Hillary Clinton, Robert Reich and Bill Maher.

Contracting Covid-19 may have put President Trump in the hospital, jeopardized his re-election campaign, and drawn attention to his administration’s failures to contain the deadly pathogen. But it’s been great for his Facebook page.
For the week that ended Saturday, the president received 27 million reactions, shares and comments on his Facebook posts, according to data from CrowdTangle, a Facebook-owned analytics platform.
That number broke the president’s previous weekly record of 25 million interactions, which came in November 2016, the week he was elected. (Mr. Trump’s highest single-day total was on Election Day that year, when he received 12.3 million interactions.)
The president’s most-engaged post came on Saturday, the day after he was flown to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center. It was Mr. Trump’s first appearance on social media after his hospitalization, and he claimed his treatment was “going well, I think!” The post received more than three million interactions.
A post by Mr. Trump two days later, in which he told his followers, “don’t be afraid of Covid,” got more than 1.5 million interactions. The post was widely criticized by medical experts for downplaying the risks of the virus, and critics called for it to be taken down from Facebook and Twitter. But neither company took it down, saying it did not pose an immediate threat of physical harm.
Facebook did take down another of the president’s posts, in which he falsely claimed that Covid-19 was less lethal than the flu. Twitter left the same post up, but covered it with a warning that it violated the company’s rules on Covid-19 misinformation.
Mr. Trump responded to that takedown by calling for the repeal of Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act, a law that shields internet platforms from some lawsuits. The president has repeatedly claimed that Facebook and other social networks are biased against conservatives, despite evidence that right-wing content is some of the highest-performing material on the platforms.
Engagement data doesn’t capture how widely posts are seen in users’ feeds, or whether the reactions to them are positive or negative. But most of the responses to Mr. Trump’s posts appeared to be from well-wishers and people hoping for a speedy recovery. Of the 2.5 million interactions on his Saturday post saying his treatment was “going well,” nearly all were accompanied by the “like,” “heart” or “hug” emoji. (Only 1,200 people reacted with the frowny-face emoji.)
Mr. Trump has been one of Facebook’s most popular accounts for years. But in the months leading up to the election, the engagement on his page has been growing, allowing him to circumvent the mainstream media and turning him into a major broadcaster in his own right. Last month, the president received 87 million Facebook interactions — more than CNN, ABC News, NBC News, The New York Times, The Washington Post and BuzzFeed combined.
Joe Biden, Mr. Trump’s Democratic challenger, also had one of his best-ever weeks of Facebook engagement, with 4.7 million interactions — less than one-fifth of Mr. Trump’s total.
On Wednesday, President Trump portrayed as a miracle “cure” the experimental antibody cocktail he took for his case of Covid-19, which had landed him in Walter Reed National Medical Military Center just days before. Mr. Trump returned to the White House three days after taking the drug.
But the antibody treatment, made by the drug company Regeneron, has not yet been proven effective against the coronavirus by rigorous clinical trials in people.
Dr. Taison Bell, a critical care physician at the University of Virginia, noted that it was not yet possible to tell whether the treatment actually “cured,” or even significantly benefited, the president. Doctors administered it to Mr. Trump alongside other therapies, including an antiviral called remdesivir and a steroid called dexamethasone. The latter is known to provoke a temporary surge in well-being.
“From a scientific standpoint, it makes it extremely hard to figure out what benefit came from which of the three medications,” Dr. Bell said.
Medical experts were also quick to point out that Mr. Trump’s touting of the treatment was at least the third time this year that the president has exaggerated the benefits of an unapproved Covid-19 therapy. He had previously promoted hydroxychloroquine and convalescent plasma, and on Wednesday advocated making the antibody treatment “free” for anyone who needed it.
Hydroxychloroquine, a malaria drug that researchers attempted to repurpose for use in people with the coronavirus, was repeatedly championed — and taken — by Mr. Trump, despite a lack of evidence that it worked. After granting emergency authorization for use of hydroxychloroquine, the Food and Drug Administration revoked it, citing studies showing that the drug did not help Covid-19 patients and could cause serious side effects in some.
Convalescent plasma is the antibody-rich portion of blood donated by people who have recovered from Covid-19. Mr. Trump pressured the F.D.A. to give the treatment emergency approval in August, even though there was no strong evidence that it benefited sick patients.
Dr. Megan Ranney, an emergency medicine physician at Brown University, said that the endless cycle of talking up new treatments — many of which might not pan out — could erode public trust in science and medicine.
“It’s like the boy who cried wolf,” she said. “It’s going to make it more difficult to get the real changers.”
Experts think monoclonal antibodies, like the cocktail taken by Mr. Trump, could fare better than hydroxychloroquine and convalescent plasma.
The treatment is “super promising, and all of us are excited from a theoretical perspective,” Dr. Ranney said. “But it’s just too early,” she added, to tell if theory will translate into practice.
Monoclonal antibodies are synthetic, mass-produced mimics of the molecules the human body produces in response to an infection. Some antibodies are powerful enough to block the coronavirus from infiltrating cells. Administered to people battling the coronavirus, the monoclonal antibodies could help naturally produced immune molecules fend off the virus.
Just days before Mr. Trump tested positive for the coronavirus and was admitted to the hospital, Regeneron announced a batch of preliminary results, collected from ongoing trials, via news release. They suggested Regeneron’s monoclonal antibody cocktail could tamp down the amount of virus found in the nasal cavity, and hasten recovery in people who had contracted the virus but hadn’t been hospitalized.
On Wednesday evening, Regeneron announced it was seeking an emergency approval from the F.D.A. for its antibody cocktail.
The data so far for monoclonal antibodies looks “very promising,” said Dr. Phyllis Tien, an infectious disease physician at the University of California, San Francisco. But it’s crucial, she added, to let the trials run to completion to fully assess safety and efficacy. Unanticipated side effects could crop up, or the treatment might not perform as well in certain people as it does in others.
Mr. Trump’s allusions to making monoclonal antibodies “free” for widespread use are also probably off base. Monoclonal antibodies are expensive and difficult to produce in large quantities. Regeneron estimated that it would initially have enough doses for only 50,000 people, though the company plans to scale up production in coming months.
What’s cheaper, Dr. Ranney said, are the many preventive strategies available to keep the virus from infecting people in the first place, such as masks and physical distancing: “How about we focus on that?”
QAnon followers were speculating on Tuesday night that Facebook’s new ban on all QAnon groups and pages was part of a complex plan by the Trump administration to root out the “deep state” and arrest their enemies. Or the social media company was trying to squelch the impending news that President Trump was about to crack down on his foes.
QAnon believers were making both arguments. Neither was true.
Earlier on Tuesday, Facebook announced it would remove any group, page or Instagram account associated with the QAnon conspiracy. Within 24 hours, hundreds of groups had disappeared, many of them with hundreds of thousands of followers.
After the ban, QAnon believers began to speculate on Twitter and other social media platforms that Facebook’s move was a sign that the moment they had predicted — Mr. Trump reveals his long fight with satanic pedophiles — had finally arrived.
One tweet, which was liked nearly 1,000 times, linked to an announcement by the Justice Department of a news conference Wednesday morning on a matter of “national security.” The tweet claimed the Justice Department was preparing charges against a number of senior Democrats, including Hillary Clinton.
Similar tweets by QAnon believers said the news conference would have even bigger news, including an appearance by Mr. Trump to announce that he had arrested hundreds of members of a shadowy group that QAnon believers falsely claim are secretly running a satanic cabal. Many of those tweets were also shared and liked hundreds of times.
The Justice Department’s news conference on Wednesday detailed the investigation and arrest of several members of the Islamic State terrorist organization. There was no mention of the satanic cabal that QAnon followers claim Mr. Trump is battling.
But after the conference ended, QAnon adherents still maintained the Justice Department would deliver on the sprawling conspiracy theory that their members have spun over years.
Researchers who study QAnon said it was typical of the group to incorporate new conspiracies into their narrative to account for inaccurate predictions. Travis View, a host of “QAnon Anonymous,” a podcast that seeks to explain the movement, said the group was already rallying around the idea that a surprise was coming in October or November.
Conspiracy theories, Mr. View said, have a way of continuing to live on, even after being repeatedly proven false.
Mere hours after defiantly advising Americans not to fear the coronavirus or let it “dominate your life,” President Trump took to Twitter on Tuesday morning with misleading comparisons of Covid-19 to the flu.
“Many people every year, sometimes over 100,000, and despite the Vaccine, die from the Flu,” Mr. Trump tweeted on Tuesday morning. “Are we going to let it close down our Country? No, we have learned to live with it, just like we are learning to live with Covid, in most populations far less lethal!!!”
Flu season is coming up! Many people every year, sometimes over 100,000, and despite the Vaccine, die from the Flu. Are we going to close down our Country? No, we have learned to live with it, just like we are learning to live with Covid, in most populations far less lethal!!!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 6, 2020
But his comparisons of Covid-19 and the flu stand in sharp contrast to months of data gathered by experts, who have repeatedly said that the coronavirus poses a far more serious threat than influenza viruses. Based on data gathered thus far, most flu viruses are less deadly and less contagious than the coronavirus. And while flu vaccines and federally approved treatments for the flu exist, no such products have been fully cleared by governing bodies for use against the coronavirus.
Twitter appended a note to Mr. Trump’s tweet, saying that it violated the company’s rules about spreading false and misleading information about the virus. But it kept the post up, saying that it was in the public interest to keep it accessible. Facebook removed a similar post from Mr. Trump, saying that the company removes incorrect information about the coronavirus.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, between 24,000 and 62,000 flu-related deaths occur in the United States each year — substantially fewer than Mr. Trump claimed. In February, Mr. Trump stuck closer to the facts at a White House news conference. “The flu, in our country, kills from 25,000 people to 69,000 people a year. That was shocking to me,” he said at the time. Earlier that month, according to the recent book by Bob Woodward, Mr. Trump described the coronavirus as “more deadly than even your strenuous flus.” On average, seasonal flu strains kill about 0.1 percent of the people they infect.
The coronavirus, on the other hand, has killed more than 210,000 people in the United States, and more than one million worldwide, since the start of 2020. The virus’s true mortality rate remains unclear, as it is difficult to gather such data while the pandemic rages on. Inadequate testing has also made it hard to pinpoint how many people have been stricken by the virus, which can spread silently from people who never show symptoms.
Still, estimates from experts tend to put the coronavirus’s death rate higher than the flu’s. The virus’s death toll was especially high in late winter and spring, when hospitals were overwhelmed, clinically tested treatments were scarce and masking and distancing were even more scarce than they are now.
“This is basically nonsensical ranting and raving,” Angela Rasmussen, a virologist at Columbia University, said about Mr. Trump’s statements. “This just demonstrates that, for a businessman, President Trump doesn’t seem to have much of a grasp of mathematics.”
Frequent encounters with past flu strains, in combination with effective vaccines, can also bolster the body’s defenses against new flu viruses. The coronavirus, however, has swept through a defenseless population of unprepared hosts at a dizzying rate.
Deaths also don’t reveal the entire picture. Researchers still don’t fully understand the long-term consequences of coronavirus infections, which have saddled a growing number of people, called long-haulers, with serious and debilitating symptoms that can linger for weeks or months.
Medical experts have also warned that as the northern hemisphere cools for winter, the flu and Covid-19 could collide, fueling a new spate of deaths.
Mr. Trump, who tested positive for the coronavirus last week, has downplayed the severity of the pathogen several times in recent days, even though he was sent to Walter Reed National Military Medical Center to receive treatment for Covid-19. While at the hospital, he received several therapies typically designated only for those who are very seriously ill.

Facebook and Twitter have pledged to keep their networks safe from misinformation about the coronavirus to protect the public’s health. But on Monday, the sites were tested when President Trump posted that people should not be afraid of the disease.
“Feeling really good! Don’t be afraid of Covid. Don’t let it dominate your life,” Mr. Trump wrote on his Facebook and Twitter pages, saying he would be discharged from the Walter Reed military hospital after being treated there for Covid-19 the last few days. “I feel better than I did 20 years ago!”
I will be leaving the great Walter Reed Medical Center today at 6:30 P.M. Feeling really good! Don’t be afraid of Covid. Don’t let it dominate your life. We have developed, under the Trump Administration, some really great drugs & knowledge. I feel better than I did 20 years ago!
— Donald J. Trump (@realDonaldTrump) October 5, 2020
Medical experts immediately took issue with the post. More than 200,000 Americans have died from the virus, and more than 35 million cases have been reported around the world. Dr. Bob Wachter, the chair of the department of medicine at the University of California, San Francisco, said Mr. Trump’s tweet was “breathtakingly callous, inhumane & counterproductive.” Dr. Bernard P. Chang of Columbia University’s department of emergency medicine warned that people should remain afraid of the virus.
“Don’t be afraid of Covid.” Are you kidding me? After 210,000 deaths in the U.S. & 1 million deaths worldwide? This either shows a breathtakingly callous, inhumane & counterproductive attitude, or he has altered mental status – in which case the 25th Amendment should be invoked. pic.twitter.com/KjmQRdQkU1

As a frontline clinician: it’s encouraging to see individual patients begin to get better. I wish him a speedy/safe recovery.
But as a clinician-scientist: Don’t practice medicine by one-off anecdotes. Practice by data. And with over 210,000 souls lost, I’d remain VERY afraid. https://t.co/t55d0cWQc9
— Bernard P. Chang MD PhD (@bernardchangMD) October 5, 2020
But Facebook and Twitter did nothing about Mr. Trump’s post, even though the companies have publicized their coronavirus misinformation policies.
Facebook has said it does not allow coronavirus posts that can lead to direct physical harm, and will redirect people to a Covid-19 information center. Twitter also removes only posts that contain demonstrably false information with the “highest likelihood of leading to physical harm.”
For Facebook and Twitter, these details matter. They are paying close attention to whether or not Mr. Trump is giving a specific direction or command to engage in an activity that could immediately put people in danger. When he suggested in April that experts look into whether people could inject disinfectant to fight off the coronavirus, Facebook and Twitter used the same yardstick and took no action to remove clips and posts about the unproven treatment.
Mr. Trump and his director of social media, Dan Scavino, have hewed closely to the line of what is allowed on various social media accounts over the past four years, seemingly pushing the envelope as far as possible without inciting the tech companies to take punitive action.
Facebook did not respond to a request for comment. A Twitter spokesman said the tweet did not violate the company’s rules since it did not include a clear call to action that could potentially cause real-world harm.
By Monday evening, Mr. Trump’s tweet and Facebook post on Covid-19 had been viewed by more than one million people across both networks. Mr. Trump later posted a video reiterating that people should not let the virus dominate their lives. “Get out there,” he said. “The vaccines are coming momentarily.”

President Trump’s decision to drive by well-wishers outside Walter Reed National Military Medical Center on Sunday was widely criticized by medical experts as irresponsible for unnecessarily exposing Secret Service agents inside the vehicle to the virus.
“By taking a joy ride outside Walter Reed the president is placing his Secret Service detail at grave risk,” tweeted Dr. Jonathan Reiner, professor of medicine and surgery at George Washington University. “This is the height of irresponsibility.”
Yet many far-right commenters called it something else: a miracle. They said it was evidence that the president was overcoming his illness from the coronavirus.
The Gateway Pundit, a website notorious for regularly spreading misinformation and falsehoods, published an article calling Mr. Trump’s drive-by to greet fans a “miracle in Maryland.”
“I believe in miracles,” said another tweet on Sunday afternoon, after Mr. Trump’s doctor said he could return to the White House as early as Monday. “We are going to see another one in November!”
Others reposted and repeated Mr. Trump’s own words in a video he released on Saturday that his hospitalization and process of recovery constituted a “miracle from God coming down.”
Alex Plitsas, the vice chairman of the Fairfield Republican Town Committee in Connecticut and a onetime contributor to the conservative news and opinion site The Daily Caller, said the people criticizing Mr. Trump’s trip past supporters on Sunday were hypocritical. He said that they advocated wearing masks to stop the spread of the virus, but that when Mr. Trump wore one they said that was not enough to please them.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization say face coverings are a safeguard but not an absolute guarantee of stopping transmission — especially in a small, sealed space like a vehicle occupied by a person known to be infected, as was the case on Sunday.
Mr. Plitsas did not immediately respond to a request for comment.
Greg Price, another contributor to The Daily Caller, said the Secret Service agents accompanying Mr. Trump during the drive-by had always been at risk because they have been around the president during his bout of illness.
Secret Service agents have been within spitting distance of President Trump the whole weekend, but apparently they were never in danger until he decided to wave at his supporters.
— Greg Price (@greg_price11) October 4, 2020
“The point of my tweet was that the safety of the agents didn’t become a big story until President Trump did the drive by,” Mr. Price said in a direct message on Monday.
Dr. James Phillips, an attending physician at Walter Reed, said the specific situation of being in a sealed vehicle increased the agents’ risk. “Presidential SUV is not only bulletproof, but hermetically sealed against chemical attack,” he tweeted. He added that the risk of Covid-19 transmission was “as high as it gets outside of medical procedures.”
Every single person in the vehicle during that completely unnecessary Presidential “drive-by” just now has to be quarantined for 14 days. They might get sick. They may die. For political theater. Commanded by Trump to put their lives at risk for theater. This is insanity.
— James P. Phillips, MD (@DrPhillipsMD) October 4, 2020
The C.D.C. says cloth face coverings help prevent the person wearing the mask from spreading Covid-19 to others, but it doesn’t say wearing a mask fully prevents the spread of the virus. The drive angered some members of the Secret Service, The Washington Post reported.
“Many of the statements that are being pushed by Trump’s supporters have been debunked by medical experts, but at this time, no one is being rational,” said Claire Wardle, executive director of First Draft, an organization that fights online disinformation. “These tweets and the online conversation is not about science or expertise, it’s about emotions and partisanship.”
President Trump’s announcement on Friday that he tested positive for the coronavirus has reignited an online fervor over hydroxychloroquine, a drug repeatedly promoted and taken by Mr. Trump despite a lack of evidence that it effectively treats or prevents Covid-19.
Advocates of the drug have taken to Twitter and Facebook over the past few days to recommend hydroxychloroquine as a course of treatment for Mr. Trump. Among them was Representative Andy Biggs, a Republican of Arizona. On Friday, Mr. Biggs passed on his well wishes to the president on Twitter before encouraging him and the first lady, Melania Trump, who also contracted the coronavirus, “to take hydroxychloroquine to assist with their recoveries.”
I encourage them to take hydroxychloroquine to assist with their recoveries, & I am confident that they will be resuming their normal routines in the very near future. pic.twitter.com/LFxIWwvjo5
— Rep Andy Biggs (@RepAndyBiggsAZ) October 2, 2020
Over the weekend, other Twitter users also posted that Mr. Trump should use hydroxychloroquine, with some calling it a “miracle drug.” The hashtag #hydroxychloroquine popped up frequently on Twitter, with others posting under the hashtag #HCQWORKS.
All of the online activity means it’s a good time to sort through what we know about hydroxychloroquine.
The drug has long been used to treat malaria, lupus and rheumatoid arthritis. At the start of the pandemic, a handful of small, poorly designed studies suggested that it could block the coronavirus from replicating in cells.
Since then, the data on hydroxychloroquine’s effectiveness against the virus has been mixed. The early, seemingly promising results, bolstered by political pressure, prompted the Food and Drug Administration to grant the drug an emergency authorization for use in very sick Covid-19 patients. Follow-up studies, however, found the drug neither sped recovery nor prevented healthy people from contracting the coronavirus or progressing to serious disease.
The F.D.A. ultimately revoked its emergency approval. The agency now warns that hydroxychloroquine can cause dangerous abnormalities in heart rhythm in coronavirus patients. Researchers have also conducted large reviews concluding that hydroxychloroquine does not benefit Covid-19 patients, and have reaffirmed the risks of side effects in these individuals.
Still, the drug has been championed by some — including President Trump, who praised it through the summer.
So what treatment is Mr. Trump, who has been hospitalized at Walter Reed military hospital, actually receiving?
His doctor, Sean P. Conley, has said Mr. Trump had received an infusion of an experimental antibody treatment developed by drug maker Regeneron, and was also taking zinc, vitamin D, melatonin, aspirin and a generic version of the heartburn treatment Pepcid. Dr. Conley has also said the president has begun a five-day course of remdesivir, an antiviral drug given emergency use authorization from the F.D.A. to treat hospitalized Covid-19 patients. And on Sunday, Dr. Conley said Mr. Trump had been given the steroid dexamethasone, which has been shown to help patients who are severely ill with Covid-19 but can be harmful for patients with mild or moderate cases of the disease.
Hydroxychloroquine was not mentioned by Mr. Trump’s medical team. That prompted some on Twitter to speak out on what they saw as an omission in his treatment.

In the past week, two major political stories — about President Trump’s taxes, and the first presidential debate on Tuesday — dominated social media feeds. But there was plenty of other news making the rounds online, including stories about Amy Coney Barrett, the Supreme Court nominee, and the economic toll of the coronavirus.
Here is an annotated list of the 10 most-engaged news stories of the past seven days. (Note: this week’s list captures data from Friday, Sept. 25 at 9 a.m. Eastern time until Friday, Oct. 2 at 9 a.m. Eastern time. It captures only the first several hours of data on articles about President Trump testing positive for Covid-19, which was revealed early Friday morning.)
1. The New York Times: Trump’s Taxes Show Chronic Losses and Years of Income Tax Avoidance (5,730,782 interactions)
The Times’s big scoop about Mr. Trump’s taxes led the pack this week, with more than five million interactions, making it the paper’s most-engaged article of the year.
2. Fox News: Trump announces Amy Coney Barrett as nominee for Supreme Court seat (1,315,885 interactions)
3. The Daily Wire: Chris Wallace Faces Intense Backlash, Including From Colleagues, Over Bias During Debate (1,176,793 interactions)
Right-wing websites like The Daily Wire took aim at Mr. Wallace after Tuesday’s debate. This article, which aggregated tweets from right-wing commentators, struck a nerve among Trump supporters who felt that the president had been unfairly treated by the Fox News anchor.
4. Fox News: Trump $500B Black America plan designates KKK, Antifa as ‘terrorist organizations’ (1,169,050 interactions)
Another Fox News story, this one about President Trump’s recent announcement that he would propose designating the Ku Klux Klan and antifa “terrorist organizations.” (Legal experts have said that the proposal is largely symbolic, and that there was no legal authority for labeling a domestic group this way.)
5. NBC News: Proud Boys say they are ‘standing down and standing by’ after Trump’s debate callout (1,156,849 interactions)
After Mr. Trump told the Proud Boys, a far-right extremist group, to “stand back and stand by” during Tuesday’s debate, the group’s supporters adopted the president’s remarks as a rallying cry. (Note: NBC’s original headline misstated Mr. Trump’s comment.)
6. The Washington Post: The pandemic pushes hundreds of millions of people toward starvation and poverty (1,054,643 interactions)
UNICEF was the top sharer of this Washington Post analysis, which concluded that when it comes to the economic toll of the coronavirus pandemic, “the gloom is only deepening.” (Note: UNICEF’s Facebook posts receive an additional boost from the platform’s Covid-19 info panels.)
7. The Blaze: President Trump tweets that he and the first lady have tested positive for coronavirus (891,140 interactions)
8. CNN: New York Times: Trump paid no income taxes in 10 of past 15 years (825,737 interactions)
9. The Daily Wire: John Legend: I Might Leave America If Trump Remains President. Uh-Huh. Legend Just Bought $17.5M Beverly Hills Mansion. (804,617 interactions)
Days before Mr. Legend and his wife, Chrissy Teigen, announced that they had lost their child after pregnancy complications, The Daily Wire got more than 800,000 interactions on an article calling attention to Mr. Legend’s saying that he would consider leaving America if Mr. Trump were re-elected.
10. Variety: BTS: See Every Variety Cover (795,837 interactions)
The 10th most-engaged story of the week was a roundup of magazine covers featuring BTS, the K-pop supergroup. Never underestimate a K-pop supergroup.

President Trump’s announcement on Friday that he had tested positive for the coronavirus set off a wave of tweets and Facebook posts with a common refrain, especially on the left: Why should we believe him?
There was no evidence that Mr. Trump was lying. But overnight, hundreds of tweets were posted casting doubt on whether the president contracted the coronavirus.
The White House has given multiple statements confirming Mr. Trump’s condition. His physician confirmed the positive test result, and Mark Meadows, the president’s chief of staff, said that Mr. Trump had mild symptoms of Covid-19.
The tweets questioning Mr. Trump’s announcement peaked at five per minute on Friday morning according to Dataminr, a social media monitoring service. The doubters included Jelani Cobb, a staff writer at The New Yorker, and Anand Giridharadas, editor at large of Time and an occasional contributor to The New York Times.
Some suggested that the announcement from the president could be an excuse to delay the election, since he is trailing in the polls, and cancel future presidential debates.

Some of the people doubting Mr. Trump said they couldn’t believe him because of how much false and misleading information he has spread about the virus in the past.
I’m not saying I think Trump is lying. I’m not saying I think he’s not lying. I’m just saying he lies all the time about everything, especially coronavirus, and it probably makes sense to say “Trump SAYS HE tested positive” instead of taking this liar at his word like this pic.twitter.com/W1DBq2MIhs
— Matt Negrin, HOST OF HARDBALL AT 7PM ON MSNBC (@MattNegrin) October 2, 2020
Researchers at Cornell University published a study this week showing that Mr. Trump was the single largest driver of false and misleading information about the coronavirus. Mentions of Mr. Trump made up nearly 38 percent of the overall “misinformation conversation,” the researchers said.
Mr. Trump has also stated on at least 34 separate occasions since February that the coronavirus would go away.
“We’re in an environment where conspiracies are thriving, in part because the president encourages them,” said Melissa Ryan, chief executive of Card Strategies, a consulting firm that researches disinformation. “And we have a White House comms operation that gives the press and public disinformation constantly.”
The situation has created “the perfect storm for people to assume that the White House isn’t being truthful,” Ms. Ryan said.
Many of the deniers also latched on to a tweet from Sept. 18 that had originally been shared in conspiracy circles, but was reshared widely on Facebook and Twitter after Mr. Trump’s announcement on Friday. “Trump’s October surprise will be the announcement of ‘his infection,’” it said. “Fake, but quite dramatic.” The post collected nearly 15,000 interactions across Facebook and Twitter, mostly from people who falsely asserted that Mr. Trump catching the virus was a known plan.
And some saw people’s reactions to the announcement as a reflection of the sheer magnitude of misinformation that has emanated from the president.
Trump has made conspiracy theorists of us all. 🕵🏼♀️

After Tuesday’s chaotic presidential debate, in which President Trump repeatedly ignored the ground rules, his supporters turned their anger on Chris Wallace, the Fox News anchor who served as the debate’s moderator, accusing him of being biased against the president.
Posts attacking Mr. Wallace dominated conservative social media on Wednesday and Thursday. One meme, which got more than a million interactions on Facebook after the president shared it, depicted Mr. Trump taking on both Mr. Wallace and Joseph R. Biden Jr., the Democratic nominee, in a Street Fighter-style two-on-one brawl.
Another meme, shared by the conservative influencers the Hodgetwins, depicted Mr. Wallace as Mr. Biden’s knight in shining armor.
Other conservatives tried to paint Mr. Wallace as a Trump hater in disguise, pointing out that he is a registered Democrat. This is true. Mr. Wallace has described himself as “independent,” and has said he registered as a Democrat because “where I live, in Washington, D.C., the only elections that count are the Democratic primaries.”
But other claims about Mr. Wallace were not true, such as a rumor that circulated on WeChat, the Chinese messaging app, that claimed he was “fired” from moderating any future debates. Some users also shared an image that was falsely labeled as showing Mr. Wallace with Jeffrey Epstein, the financier and accused sex trafficker. (The photo actually showed Mr. Wallace with the actor George Clooney, a vocal liberal with whom he is friendly.)
The right-wing attacks have not stopped at Mr. Wallace. Conservatives have also begun casting doubts about the fairness of the second presidential debate, which is scheduled for Oct. 15 and is slated to be moderated by Steve Scully, a longtime C-SPAN political editor and host.
One right-wing meme accused Mr. Scully of being connected to the “deep state.” Other conservatives referred to him as a former Biden intern, or said he and Mr. Biden had gone to college together. (They did not go to college together, although Mr. Scully did intern with Mr. Biden’s Senate office while an undergraduate at American University. He also was an intern for Senator Edward M. Kennedy.)
Senator Ted Cruz, Republican of Texas, called the choice of moderator “NUTS,” and proposed having future debates moderated by teams of one Republican and one Democrat.
1/x Everyone agrees Tuesday’s debate was a train wreck. A major contributing fact was the moderator Chris Wallace, a registered Democrat, repeatedly interrupting to try to help Joe Biden. The next debate is set to be moderated by a former intern to…Joe Biden. (And Ted Kennedy.)
— Ted Cruz (@tedcruz) October 1, 2020
Pro-Trump partisans also began digging for evidence that the Commission on Presidential Debates, the bipartisan organization that sponsors the debates, was biased against Mr. Trump. Mr. Trump has complained about the commission in the past, calling it “very biased” and saying it is “stacked with Trump Haters & Never Trumpers.” (The group’s leadership consists of both Democrats and Republicans.)
Those claims have been renewed after Tuesday’s debate. On Thursday, supporters of QAnon, the pro-Trump conspiracy theory, began posting unfounded rumors about members of the debate commission, and pointing out that President Barack Obama is an honorary co-chair. (He is, as are former presidents from both parties, including George W. Bush.) Q, the pseudonymous message board poster whose posts fuel the theory, also weighed in, calling the commission’s choice of Mr. Scully as a debate moderator evidence of a “rigged system.”

It’s no surprise that people pushing anti-mask arguments popped up online around the time the coronavirus pandemic hit the United States in March and April.
But here is what might surprise you: The audience for misleading anti-mask posts on Facebook has grown sharply in the last eight weeks, despite the growing evidence that masks can help prevent the spread of the virus.
The number of people who have joined anti-mask Facebook groups has grown 1,800 percent, to more than 43,000 users, since the beginning of August, according to an analysis of data provided by Crowdtangle, a media tool that Facebook owns. Almost half of the 29 antimask groups discovered by The New York Times were created in the last three months, with names like “Mask off Michigan” and “Mask Free America Coalition.”

Uncle Orson Reviews Everything
September 10, 2015
First appeared in print in The Rhino Times
, Greensboro, NC.
Ricki, Crippled Carts, Barbarian TV
Longtime readers of this column are aware of how little I have liked Meryl
Streep's performances ever since I first saw her in The Deer Hunter back in
In recent years, she has given a couple of performances that I enjoyed and even
admired. And I think that in Ricki and the Flash she does splendidly.
Ricki is the stage name of an aging rock singer named Linda, who walked away
from her husband and three young children in order to move to California to
pursue her career in rock-and-roll. Now all her children are of marriageable
age and she barely knows them; her husband's second wife, Maureen (Audra
McDonald), raised them as if they were her own.
Needless to say, Ricki's rock "career" never arrived. She cut one album, back
in the days of vinyl; now she plays in a very good bar band, covering other
people's hits, and earns a living by being a checker at Total Foods. All for the
She really had no choice, did she? She had to follow her dream, didn't she?
Certainly that's the dogma that gets tossed around in movie after movie and
meme after meme: Never give up! Follow your dream!
Here's a clue, folks. By the time you're near (or in) your sixties, and you gave
up everything -- marriage, family -- in pursuit of your dream, maybe it's time
to pack it in and admit that it isn't going to happen for you.
Only in the case of Ricki, even if she wanted to, she has nothing to go back to.
Her husband, Pete (Kevin Kline) may still yearn for the woman he once loved,
but he's happily married now to a loyal wife who stayed with him. One son,
Josh (Sebastian Stan) is still willing to make a place for his mom in his life;
another, Adam (Nick Westrate), is self-absorbed in his own inescapable destiny;
and the daughter, Julie (Mamie Gummer), has just been jilted by her
husband, who left her for another woman.
They're not exactly begging Mommy to come home. Those days are over.
And yet this sensitively written script (by Juno scriptwriter Diablo Cody -- a
woman, despite the masculine Spanish name that means "devil"), admits that
even a mother who abandoned her family, making it clear that she valued her
music more than her children, has a role to play in their lives.
When Ricki, having spent her last dime on the plane ticket, shows up at her
ex-husband's mansionesque house, Julie greets her with so much hostility that
I could see the edges of the screen beginning to give off smoke. Yet over the
next few days, with Ricki staying in the house because she doesn't have money
for a motel, she and Julie are able to find a way to do each other some
In other words, this is a story about family love and family damage. Ricki's
selfishness is excused, in her own mind, by the fact that she was "born to be
Ricki," as if she didn't have any choice in the matter. And what makes it more
poignant is that her band, The Flash, really is way better than your ordinary
In fact, Meryl Streep does a pretty good job of selling an Ann Wilson-like
singing style. No, she doesn't actually have good enough pitch control to be a
first-rate rock singer, but she has some pretty good chops. And it helps that
Ricki's lover and the lead guitarist in The Flash, Greg, is played by Rick
Unlike Streep, as a musician Springfield is the real thing (his latest album is
the excellent Songs for the End of the World). And, despite his lack of Oscar
nominations, Springfield is better at acting than Streep is at singing. His years
on General Hospital were not wasted, and his scenes with Streep are the
emotional heart of this movie.
This is not to denigrate the power of Ricki's scenes with her daughter Julie.
Since Julie is played by Streep's real-life daughter, Mamie Gummer, you
certainly have no problem believing the physical resemblance between them.
But this is more than stunt casting. Gummer is a wonderful actor. But
because her character is broken and self-absorbed, she can't give us the
warmth that makes the Springfield-Streep scenes so poignant and warm.
It's Julie who represents all the damage that Ricki's selfish choices caused to
the people who loved and needed her. And it's Greg (Springfield) who
represents her only remaining hope of love and happiness.
When Streep played The Wife Who Walked Away in Kramer vs. Kramer back in
1979, the script never gave her a chance to redeem herself. She was Generic
Woman Who Must Free Herself From Male Domination, a character that seems
even shallower now, after another 36 years of political correctness.
With this film, Streep has a better role and a chance to show the human being
behind the selfish, short-sighted choices.
Not for a moment does the film insist that the audience agree that she made
the right choice -- or the wrong one. But that's how life is. Right or wrong,
all we can ever do is start where we are now and try to make better choices
And that's what Ricki and the Flash is about: The chance to make better
choices. Every member of the family faces choices in this movie, and they all
choose healing and reconciliation, even if in most cases it's a symbolic choice
and may not last.
The decision by both sons to dance while their mother's band performs at
Josh's wedding, for instance, and the stepmother's decision to invite Ricki to
the wedding -- these don't signify permanent forgiveness, but they're all steps
in the right direction.
This movie isn't suspenseful, so I'm not worried about spoilers. What makes it
worth watching is the love that the writer and the actors create together. And
the pretty good music.
The best song is the one that Streep plays alone, on acoustic guitar, in the
living room of her ex-husband's house, with Pete and Julie listening. It's the
new song, the only original in this movie of covers: "Cold One." I'm
disappointed that the soundtrack only has the later electric version; I really
want that acoustic performance. (You can catch it on video here; scroll down to the picture with Streep
holding an acoustic guitar.)
Despite that shortcoming, and the occasional flaws in Streep's singing, this is
an unusually good soundtrack album. Who knew that at age 66 Meryl Streep
would cut a hit album? But this one deserves to be a hit. (There's also an
"inspired by" album called American Ballads: Country Rock Music Inspired by
the Film With The Flash and Ricki which isn't as good, but isn't bad, either.)
As an added bonus, the senile grandmother, Oma, is played by Charlotte
Rae, the mother-figure in The Facts of Life (1979-86).
If I can overcome my anti-Streep feelings and love this film, I think there's a
good chance that many will like it even more than I did. After a summer of
mostly mediocre comic-book movies, it's nice that somebody made a first-rate film for grownups.
And even though Rick Springfield kind of steals the movie's heart, I think
Streep would not be too offended if I pointed out that her daughter, Mamie
Gummer, is a superb actor -- more real, less calculating than Streep was at
the same age. I look forward to seeing her in stronger roles than she's had a
chance to play up to now.
We have been regular customers of Harris Teeter since they first bought out
Bestway and established themselves as the upscale grocery store in
For years I used to forage for shopping carts that people had dragged far from
the Harris Teeter at Elm and Pisgah Church, and push them, sometimes in
trains as large as six or seven, up the hill to return them to the store. So I
knew very well that cart theft was common, and could be a severe problem.
Every lost or destroyed cart has to be paid for out of store revenues. That
means the cart thieves cost all the customers money, in the form of higher
So I understand completely why Harris Teeter replaced their old grey carts with
new green ones that have computer-controlled locking wheels.
If you push a shopping cart beyond the perimeter of the Harris Teeter parking
lot, the rear wheels lock up and you can't push it. Or, rather, you can push it
about as easily as you could push a sledge.
All of this would be fine, except that the management of Harris Teeter has no
concern whatever for the needs and convenience of their customers.
These locking carts work by marking an electronic perimeter, rather like those
invisible "dog fences" that give a shock to the dog that strays outside its yard.
Instead of drawing that perimeter at the edges of the shopping center parking
lot, however, they arbitrarily decided that the only customers they care about
are those who are parked directly in front of the store.
If you park down by the UPS Store or Ace Hardware, or up by the Bruegger's
Bagels, you can't push your full shopping cart back to your car. Because those
are outside the perimeter. They look like they're part of the parking lot for
the shopping center, but as far as Harris Teeter is concerned, those places
On Tuesday afternoon, the parking lot in front of Harris Teeter was so full that
I would have had to park about two-thirds of the lot away from the store. But
there were plenty of spaces over by the Santa Fe Mexican Grill that were much
closer to Harris Teeter.
As is my habit, I scanned for an abandoned cart so I could push it to the store
and use it for my shopping. I found one and retrieved it. That's when I
discovered that even though I was parked closer to Harris Teeter than most of
the cars in the front lot, I was still in the hated no-man's-land where the
shopping cart's wheels won't turn.
The only way to push it back to the store was to lift up the back of the cart and
push it on its front wheels, like a really awkward wheelbarrow.
I knew then that once my cart was full -- and it was going to be full -- I
wouldn't be able to push it back to my car in the normal way.
I'm a 64-year-old man, not in the best of shape. I chose the closest available
parking place in the Harris Teeter parking lot, expecting to have the help of a
cart in carrying my purchases back to the car. Now I knew that this would not
So after I paid for my purchases, I stopped at the customer service desk to
register my complaint. The young lady there, who was not a manager, was
very sympathetic, and pointed out what I had already guessed -- that the
decision to skimp on the marking of the cart perimeter was made, not at the
local store, but by "corporate."
You know what that means, right? Because "corporate" doesn't know or care
about actual customers. They only look at numbers. It would have cost more
to establish a perimeter the full size of the shopping center parking lot -- and,
because carts would now be left farther out from the store, it would cost more
employee time to gather up abandoned carts.
That makes sense to accountants. But it makes no sense to the customers
who now have to figure out how to get their purchases home.
The young lady at the counter finally told me that the guy tending the self-checkout desk had a key that would unlock my cart. Alas, while he was quite
willing to help, the key had been taken by another employee who was going to
bring back carts that had somehow been sledged to an area behind the store.
He offered to stand outside with my purchases while I fetched my car, but I
know how slowly I walk these days, and I didn't want a lot of meltable
things to stay outside in the heat. Also, he was the only person tending the
self-checkout, and I knew from experience how annoying it can be if the
attendant isn't there.
So I declined his help and pushed the cart the ten feet from the door to the
yellow stripe that marks the perimeter. At that point, I lifted up the heavily-laden cart and wheelbarrowed it awkwardly to the median, where I perched it
while I loaded my car.
At that point, another employee came to take my cart back (which I always do,
but it was nice of him to spare me that). I pointed out to him that when
somebody is driving up and choosing a parking place, there is no signage of
any kind informing us that if we park in this area, close to the store, we won't
be able to bring our carts to the car.
His answer was to point to a sign that you cannot hope to see until you've
already parked. What do you do then, go all the way back out to your car and
Yeah, right. Slow-moving old coots like me really love having a chance to walk
to and from our car twice, especially since I'd have to move from a close-in
parking place to one much farther from the store in order to be within the
boundaries of Harris Teeter's acceptance.
There is really only one conclusion to reach. Harris Teeter does not want
customers to be able to park in the most convenient spot. Harris Teeter
wants to make us walk much farther -- or carry our groceries out without the
help of a cart.
They don't care enough to warn us before we choose an outlawed parking spot.
They're too cheap to move the perimeter so we can park near other stores and
then also shop at Harris Teeter.
In other words, they want us to shop at Food Lion.
Visiting with friends, I caught an hour of Bachelor in Paradise (on ABC), a
"reality" show that I would never have watched on my own. My friends
were amused by the antics of the characters, as a supposed "beauty" (whom I
found to be the least attractive of the women on the show in that episode, but
... go figure) jilted a man she had apparently been stringing along for weeks.
All the group scenes and solo commentaries by the participants made me sad:
It's all junior high school with sex. Instead of text messages, they needed to
have little penciled notes saying: "Do you like me? ____ Yes _____ No _____
What made it sad was that all these "beautiful people" were trying hard to fake
sincerity, as if this whole show had something to do with real life and real
I don't think I'll be watching more, mostly because I know a much better class
of people in the real world. I'd rather hang out with them. (And my friends are
all better looking, too.)
I also happened to flip past Naked and Afraid XL (Discovery Channel), in
which twelve former Naked and Afraid survivalists were plunked down in the
Colombian jungle for 40 days (unless they tapped out).
I happened to catch the moment when a woman was angrily leaving two men
who had somehow offended her -- and she had thrown their tools (two knives
and a firestarter) into a body of water where, presumably, they were
Since the survivalists have to make do with those few tools in order to catch
and kill, then skin, cook, and eat whatever protein sources they find, if this
were a real survival situation (i.e., if there weren't cameramen nearby), her
actions would be tantamount to attempted murder.
Instead, she was free to be petulant because despite the rigors of the
experience, it's still fake: They are being observed; they will not be allowed to
Later, though, from a summary by a friend who watched the whole show, and
from an open letter published by one of the contestants on Facebook, I learned
that these twelve people divided themselves into two groups. The larger group
-- which my friend called "the welfare group" -- decided that since they
wouldn't starve to death in forty days, all they needed to do was lie around
near a water source and use up as little energy as possible.
Of course, humans can't just "lie around" -- so they squabbled and quarreled
and the normal junior high stuff. Just what chimps would do, if they could
talk. In best junior-high fashion, they picked "losers" and pushed and goaded
them until they tapped out.
Again: If this had been real and there weren't producers at hand waiting to
rescue the rejects, they would certainly have died in the wilderness. When you
know it isn't quite real, attempted murder is taken rather lightly.
The two castoffs -- a man who wanted to make shelter and look for food, a
woman who got lost for a week so the other two women in her group bonded
without her -- were also introverts. Apparently that is a capital crime in this
troop of baboons.
Two of the men, though -- branded the "Alpha Males" by the show's producers
-- weren't content with sitting around sniping. They spent all day hunting for
food, and several times scored significant amounts of protein, mostly in the
form of eels.
They shared their protein finds with the welfare group, and in my friend's
opinion behaved like menschen through the entire show.
My friend -- a woman -- was disgusted by the behavior of the women on the
show. They all had a chip on their shoulder, taking umbrage at any help
offered by the men -- even when they obviously needed the help.
Feminist rage is a luxury that could not survive in a real survival situation --
you know, without cameras you can play to. Because the women knew that
the men could not possibly show rage on camera (it would instantly make them
the Bad Guys), they could behave like a tush flambee and feel righteous about
But they didn't look righteous. They looked stupid, selfish, and short-sighted. And the guys who worked hard and provided for all were treated
scornfully by the others -- though they certainly ate the food that the Alpha
Males shared with them.
Each in its own way, both Bachelor in Paradise and Naked and Afraid XL show
why civilization is so fragile, requiring constant effort and real sacrifice to
maintain. Modern Americans take civilization so much for granted that they
feel perfectly free to revert to barbarism at a moment's notice -- because they
know that the grownups around them will keep things going.
It's like a lovely quote I read the other day (and promptly forgot the source): If
everybody thinks outside the box, who's going to take care of the box?
We glorify rule-breakers, selfish people who "follow their dream," and prickly
self-righteous Offended Ones who allow themselves to become annoyed by
And the number of people who tend to the box, who take responsibility for the
well-being of others, who absorb many a word and many a harm without
lashing out -- those are the people who keep civilization alive.
Two out of twelve, if Naked and Afraid XL is any guide; about the same
proportion in Bachelor in Paradise. Is that enough to keep civilization alive?
Most of us live our lives without those reality-show cameras. With nobody
watching -- and nobody to bail us out -- how many of us are on the grownup
By the way, in case anybody's thinking of watching -- or avoiding -- Naked and
Afraid for the titillation factor, forget it. The blurring of naughty bits is so
assiduously done that they might as well be wearing thick woollen robes. You
watch for the danger, the resourcefulness, or ... the sniping, the bullying, the
Like a sad, unfunny version of Tosh.0.
Years after joining Facebook, I actually went to my home page to see what my
profile said about me.
It was an incoherent, inaccurate mess -- because I had entered what info there
was before I had learned anything about how Facebook works.
The fact is, it doesn't. There are so many counterintuitive, hidden, or
misleading ways of doing anything.
For instance, on the Family and Relationships page, my wife was not
listed, and two of my children were listed by their full names instead of by
their Facebook identities.
First, I tried to "Add a family member" in order to get my wife in there. But
when I entered her Facebook identity, the menu "Choose Relationship" listed
all kinds of options, but "wife" and "spouse" were not among them.
Nowhere was there the slightest indication that for a spouse, you have to
enter the name under "Relationship," where there is no visible tool until you
click under the word Relationship. Then you get some help. In other words,
it's like trying to find an address on Cape Cod: If you don't already know, you
can't find it.
By the way, before I found out how to put my wife's name in my "Relationship"
slot, I gave up and added her as a Family Member under the heading "Pet."
What else was I going to choose? Mother? Niece?
I'm beginning to think "badly designed" is the only kind of software
anybody makes anymore.
I'm also trying to figure out just how many pets have their own Facebook
identity ... and how they remember their passwords. |

Exactly one year ago, I've decided to follow my husband's advice and start my own book blog. I guess that means I should have had at least 300 or so posts on my blog. Right? Uhhhhmmmm, nope. My blog is like my marriage - absence makes the heart grow fonder. If I see my husband for 7 consecutive days, it's normally a holiday. You also don't very often see me posting for 7 consecutive days. It's not quite the same? Oh, okay. Will really try my best to do better in the next year. But it truly is a good recipe for my marriage.... After a year of sailing around the Blogosphere, I've learned a number of things. Mostly I've learned that you really, really need to be ridiculously bad at blogging to fail Book Blogging 101. So instead of a anniversary post, I've decided to share all the knowledge I've gathered during the past year on How to dismally fail at Book Blogging.
How many Fridays do we have left? Before Christmas? After Christmas? I am seriously suffering from a bit of Scrooge syndrome the past couple of weeks. In more ways than one. Some good, some bad. But I do believe it is Friday and that means we can talk books. I can still do that. Meet me on Friday @ Friday 56 for a bit of Book Blogger Hop to kick-start the weekend with Book Beginnings . |
Since at least The Great Dictator (Charles Chaplin, USA, 1941), Hollywood cinema has regularly staged the fantasy that politics would be better off with politicians who just came across like normal human beings – rather than the performances of confidence and authority that people with aphasia find funny because they can tell that politicians are lying.
The Great Dictator shows us a simple barber (Chaplin himself) taking on the role of Adenoid Hynkel, the dictator (also played by Chaplin), and bringing to a halt the end of the Second World War through his final message of love and peace. Indeed, Chaplin’s speech is a veritable YouTube meme, so powerful and articulate does the otherwise word shy barber becomes once put in front of a microphone.
Perhaps the medium – here, radio – brings out of the barber this performance. And in bringing out a performance from him, does the barber not become more similar to Hynkel than we might otherwise think – regardless of his message of peace and love?
Indeed, what is perhaps of particular interest about The Great Dictator is the (almost certainly apocryphal) suggestions that Adolf Hitler modelled himself upon Chaplin – the tramp with a heart of gold. For even if apocryphal, this would suggest that when Chaplin impersonates Hitler, he is in certain respects impersonating himself.
In other words, as The Great Dictator promises to show us how politics might be better if it were populated by regular, straight-talking people… it does not realise that Hitler was precisely a regular, straight-talking person, who managed to whip up bloodlust and hatred in a people thanks to the banality of his speeches as much as through any grandiloquence.
Indeed, as Erika Mann (daughter of Thomas) described it in 1938:
he is no scholar… Hitler’s use of language is the worst immaginable, and it will remain at that level… Those who care for the German language may be anxious for its future when they see its deterioration during the five years of Hiter’s rule; newspapers, magazines, schoolbooks – the entire official literature – have fallen into the florid yet brutal, military and vulgar forms of expression that are typical of the Führer himself. (Erika Mann, School for Barbarians: Education Under the Nazis, New York: Dover, 1938, p. 68.)
Long Shot implicitly makes a link with The Great Dictator by opening with journalist Fred Flarsky (Seth Rogen) infiltrating a group of Neo Nazis in his native New York. He is exposed as a Jewish journalist and manages to escape by jumping out of a window – crashing into a car… a moment to which I shall return below.
In other words, Long Shot wants to situate itself within a world of political extremism – and one that is specifically threatening to Jews, even if one could hardly call it a revelation to demonstrate that there are Nazis in the contemporary USA (and thus not exactly a telling exposé in the way that the film wants us to believe).
More important, perhaps, is what is driving Flarsky to infiltrate an antisemitic group in the first place. For it seems clear that the film wants also to demonstrate, for better or for worse, that Flarsky has an attraction for certain types of power – even as he disavows such an attraction.
This attraction is made most clear when he meets up with his former babysitter, Charlotte Field (Charlize Theron), who is now Secretary of State. Because she is hot, and because she also gave him an embarrassing boner when he was a kid, we get a sense of how Flarsky’s attraction to power is about as subtle as a porn film (and we’ll get some of that later in the film, too).
So, Flarsky has a boner for power… even as he feels oppositional to it. His writing is considered to be powerful thanks to headlines along the lines of ‘fuck you, climate change deniers’ and so on.
You know, really powerful and sophisticated stuff. Because unsophisticated times call for unsophisticated language. Now is not the time to think and/or contemplate; now is the time to swear and judge.
And thanks to his powers of language, Flarsky becomes Field’s speechwriter (basically writing down what she says so that she can read it back to an audience), which in turn means that he gets to make good on that boner and start a relationship with Field.
Furthermore, because of the ‘humanity’ of Flarsky’s speechwriting, Field’s popularity increases immensely meaning that she is likely set to become the next President thanks to the decision of the current one (Bob Odenkirk) to stand down in a bid to pursue a career in movies (more on this shortly, too).
In effect, the film tells us that people like their politicians ‘human’ – and if only Hillary Clinton had not had that pole stuck up her ass then she might well have had a shot at winning the presidency that Donald J Trump instead won two years and 119 days ago.
But what is this fantasy of ‘honest’ politicians? For is not Trump precisely the ‘honest’ and straight-talking politician that Long Shot wants to uphold as a forward-thinking approach to contemporary American politics?
In other words, as the film attempts to critique the political right by making Field a democrat and Flarsky staunchly anti-republican, its fantasy version of politics is in fact an endorsement of precisely the status quo that we have now.
At one point, Field asks Flarsky in a bedroom scene to take her from behind, spank her and perhaps also gently to choke her (or something along these lines). Finally! Some candour about female desire in the bedroom and how it might well involve aspects that some might consider to be masochistic.
And yet, a fear that runs through my head given the context of this film is that such ‘progressiveness’ could be taken as implying that Trump is justified in his self-professed technique of ‘grabbing women by the pussy.’ After all, such twisted logic would go, this is what they really want…
No wonder it is, then, that Flarsky has eventually to face up to the fact that his best friend, Lance (O’Shea Jackson Jr), is a Republican. Not only is Lance a quasi-Magical Negro…
… but he also speaks of how his Republican values have enabled him to achieve success in the business realm (such that he can take a day off to get drunk with Flarsky and give his whole team the day off, too).
Lance explains that he tones down his Republicanism around Flarsky because he knows that Fred will just moan on at him if he does so… a bit like those people that moan on against Trump when he is just getting on with leading the nation in his own particular style.
Surely it is good for a film to offer us a vision of the African-American right, especially when it involves the son of a rapper who once proclaimed that it was right to ‘fuck the police’ (however eloquent or otherwise we find this particular use of language).
For not only does this give us a sense of the diversity of political viewpoints in America (Trump has his African-American supporters), but it also allows the film to simplify its Republican credentials while at the same using diversity as a shield to protect it from criticism (‘affirmative action’ is, if you will, turned against itself as you run the risk of being racist if you criticise this quasi-Magical Negro’s Republican views).
The film sees Flarsky fall heavily twice. The first is when he jumps out of the Nazi gathering at a New York warehouse, as mentioned above. And the second is when he falls down some stairs upon re-acquainting Field, prompting one of the singers from Boyz II Men, who are performing at whatever fundraiser they are attending, to offer one of the film’s funniest lines (‘cracker down’).
Both falls are basically impossible to survive – and so the film is no doubt suggesting that this is not realistic and that we should not take the film seriously – just as Chaplin gets bashed in the head by a frying pan in The Great Dictator.
Nonetheless, these two falls might suggest that the film is Flarsky’s fantasy; that is, Flarsky gets to be reactionary while at the same time purporting to be progressive; he gets to be neoliberal while purporting simply to be liberal.
The same idea is carried by the tattoo that is half-completed on Flarsky at the opening Nazi meeting. To prove that he is part of the gang, Fred agrees to have a Swastika tattooed on his arm – and he is going through with it when some timely internet research by one of the Nazis reveals who he really is.
Later we see the same tattoo as having been converted into a sort of funny stick man, while it makes a final appearance at the end of the film after Fred and Charlotte have moved into the White House.
So while the Swastika gets regenerated to become a stick man gag, it nonetheless also serves as a reminder of Fred’s attraction towards power.
The President wants to quit politics to become a movie star – hoping that the Presidency will project him into film stardom after a career prior to his Presidency in television (where, of course, he was most famous for playing the American President).
A sort of Democrat Trump, in that the latter was also a (reality) TV star before becoming President, the suggestion is that the Presidency will not make him a movie star – since, as Fred at one point says, starring in movies does not make you a movie star.
Not only does the film try to create a hierarchy of media here, then, but it also suggests in some senses that movies are more powerful than politics.
In some senses, this may well be true. But if it is the case, then as Donald J Trump’s suitability as president needs to be critiqued at every turn (a self-confessed abuser of women; a denier of climate change; a colluder with foreign powers), so must cinema such as this be critiqued at every turn, even if that is to spoil the ‘fun’ of a knockabout movie that just wants not to be taken too seriously.
And perhaps it is worth saying that it is quite easy to recognise the fun of the film: as a viewer, I found myself not only at times enjoying the film and laughing at its charming leads, but I also found myself indulging in fantasies of empowerment either in politics and/or in movies, perhaps especially the latter.
In other words, if there is to be critique, then it is a critique that must also be levelled at myself, or oneself more generally. We must be questioning our own propensity to be suck(er)ed in by movies like Long Shot.
For, indeed, when a seeming long shot comes about, as per Trump’s victory in the last US elections, then we do need to question how well we know our social and political realities, and how well we know ourselves if we assumed that the realisation of that long shot was previously unthinkable.
In this way, Long Shot‘s depiction of Fred as being attracted to power (even as it wants to tell us that power is attracted to him) is indeed honest – and a level of critical reflection might help us collectively to address the seduction that power offers.
The problem is that Long Shot is dishonest about its honesty, since it involves little to no critical self-reflection, even as it claims to with its PoMo television star President and its gags about TV stars not making it in the movies.
Instead, like Fred, the film just offers us a masturbatory fantasy about being ‘chosen’ by the powerful, offering up to us as progressive the idea that a guy with jizz on his face would make for a loveable First Man.
As webcam blackmailing, or ‘sextortion‘, grows rapidly, it is indeed perhaps a fantasy that such online behaviour might be empowering. But the truth is that it empowers only a global criminal network.
Perhaps being involved in a global criminal network is precisely how we should begin to consider the current American president. |
This week’s themes: New York, drinking and drinking in New York.
That has something to do with smart governance but more to do with the gritty culture of the city, its work ethic, its inspiring sense of its own grandeur, its shared knowledge of the personal struggle that goes into a day. A Fuld (Lehman Brothers former chief executive), who never took the subway, never sat in Bryant Park with a sandwich, knew nothing of what makes the city tick.
-Roger Cohen, “A Nation Hard to Short,” NYT 7/26
The hipsters that will be the “dead end of Western Civilization” are the ones who add nothing new or original and simply recycle and reduce old trends into a meaningless meme. It’s for that reason that when Williamsburg’s hipster playland is in crisis, there aren’t many who are concerned.
-Dan Fletcher, “A Brief History of Hipsters,” Time, which apparently is now in the business of publishing stories that sound like they were written in 1998. This story is dumb, inane, trite blog-bait. The sentence is only great in the sense of spectacular tragedy, much like flames that explode from a car wreck.
In their scope, both the Internet and New York are profoundly humbling: young people accustomed to feeling special about their gifts are inevitably jarred, upon arrival, to discover just how many others are trying to do precisely the same, with equal or greater success. (For a vivid demonstration of this online, try to invent a play on words, and then Google it. You’ll be convinced that there is, in fact, “nothing new in the cloud” — a joke that a British I.B.M. employee beat me to last November.)
-Bill Wasik, “Bright Lights, Big Internet,” NYT 7/29, about the parity between moving to New York and trying to make a name for yourself online
“OBAMA: I could pick up the phone right now, get the plane, we could go to Italy for pizza.”
-John Kenney, “Shouts and Murmurs: A Beer With Obama,” The New Yorker, 7/27
Fox Headline: U.S. Brewers Upset over White House Beer Selection. I guess there’s no end to the controversy over this brewhaha.
-Howie Kurtz, Twitter, 10 a.m. 7/30 |

i watched masters of horror years ago. some of the episodes (or mini movies if you will) were great, some okay and some were terrible. incident on and off a mountain road was one that fell between okay and terrible.
don c. (i don't want to keep spelling that very hard last name) of phantasm fame directed this one. going into it this time i around i realized i never thought much of the first phantasm and i never saw the sequels. was don c. really a master?
and then this started with a really crappy mid 200's pop/rock song, like really really crappy. i was groaning already and the film hadn't even begun. then the character we are following groans herself and changes the radio station to end the horrendous song. that worked for me. then she gets in an accident and we cut to a flashback.
from there the film proceeds to be a stalk and kill slasher flick. only it isn't really, it plays on the conventions and is actually pretty cool. the lead actress who is playing the damsel in distress is actually no damsel and is not in distress. she handles herself well and is actually rather ingenious in her abilities to defend herself. sure some of her defence building tactics are unbelievable but boy does she sell it. it's actually rather refreshing to watch the bad guy get frustrated as he realizes he messed with the wrong girl.
about half way in, after a couple badly acted scenes (more so due to the production values than the solid performance from the lead) i was starting to have a really good time with this mini film that was subverting the genre left right and centre. it was at this point that i realized that don c. also directed the great bubbu ho-tep and that movie, along with the phantasm series (if like this film are better than i give them credit for) could make him a master.
it was also at this time that this mini movie got great. don c. did a great job directing certain sequences. there is the drilling scene in the middle. so well done. there is very little gore and you don't really see anything but boy does he make you feel like you did. so well done.
and then when you think the film is pretty much done, it throws in a final twist that connects the flashbacks and makes you question bad guys, good guys and such. and when it all ends it is very satisfying. it's never gory, it's sometimes disturbing and it's very entertaining.
the way our heroine one ups the killer is almost funny at times. the film though is done well enough to not let you laugh.
this was much better than i remember and i actually rather liked it. it has put a renewed vigor in me for the rest of the series and it has made me want to rewatch bubbu ho-tep and to watch the phantasm films (mostly for the first time).
is don c. a master of horror? for me a master of horror is someone who consistently makes good horror films. not every film has to be good but a good portion should be. not all his/her films need to be horror films either but if the few that are horror films are good to great to legendary then yeah, they would be a horror master too. i don't know if don c. is or not but if this and bubbu ho-tep are any indication then he might just well be...

Bill Keane is the founder and chief executive officer of Keen Wealth Advisor And Keen on Retirement’s best-selling author.
If you’ve been watching the news lately, you’ve probably heard about GameStop’s stock price. One of the so-called “meme stocks” (popularity is driven by online enthusiasm in places like Reddit), GameStop stocks show a sharp rise and fall, then rise and fall again. I repeated it. Netflix is making a movie about the whole ordeal.
If you haven’t heard of GameStop’s blunder, you’ve probably heard of Bitcoin. Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency whose value has skyrocketed in recent years. As of September 10, 1 Bitcoin is worth about $ 45,000. Some companies are now accepting it as a payment method.
At first glance, GameStop and Bitcoin share one similarity in my mind. That is the attraction of “gambling scams”. Last year I received more than a few calls from people interested in investing in Bitcoin and meme stocks. Several clients have asked me about Dogecoin (thanks to Elon Musk).
Remind the client of the same differences pointed out here. There is a difference between investment and speculation. When it comes to GameStop, Bitcoin, or Dogecoin, you’re guessing, and do you know what another word to guess? gambling.
Guessing is dangerous
Let’s address some points right away. First of all, I’m not against Bitcoin. I recognize that cryptocurrencies and blockchains will have an impact on the future of finances. But for investment, at some point I might consider Bitcoin as a relatively small percentage of someone’s portfolio.
Second, you may be asking, “Wait, are you investing like gambling?” On the other hand, I would say: Yes, it may be. For example, if you put all your money in one security instead of a diverse portfolio, it’s like gambling. If something happens with that security (it’s beyond your control), you can be crushed. That’s what happened at Enron, and many were devastated when Enron fell, much like “bet everything black” at a roulette table.
Part of what puts the guess at risk is the unpredictability of the results. Yes, certainly nothing is guaranteed in a diverse equity portfolio. The Covid-19 pandemic (and other Earth-destroying events) has shown investors that the bottom can fall at any time.
However, as investors have seen this year, diversified portfolios can rebound just as quickly and tend to generate positive returns over the long term. For example, according to Goldman Sachs data quoted in June 2021, from 2010 to 2020, the S & P 500 provided an average annual return of 13.6%. Business insider paper. Let’s go back further. The same article states that Berkshire Hathaway data showed that the combined annual profit of the S & P 500 from 1965 to 2020 was 10.2%. To quote a phrase commonly used in my industry, “past performance does not guarantee future results.” But history is useful.
When it comes to Bitcoin and meme stocks, investors simply cannot take advantage of their history.
Successful investor habits
My clients, who have successfully invested and saved money for the future, have some common behaviors. First, they carry out their plans. Don’t panic when the market goes down, and don’t get too excited when the market goes up. They are stable. Do they adjust their plans as they go? Absolutely — but they always stick to the plan.
They do not chase the latest “gambling scams” opportunities. They know where they are, where they want to go, and the paths that are most likely to lead them there. All detours along the way are just distractions that can keep them away from the goal of financial independence.
But that doesn’t mean I don’t get those calls from time to time. After all, we are all human beings, so we are wired to enjoy and avoid pain. Saving money and having financial discipline for decades can be painful for some people. Therefore, they are at least a little intrigued when they find an opportunity to skip ahead and avoid some of that pain.
A financial adviser like me is here to act as a guardrail when one of these “glossy objects” pops up and instantly catches your attention. Here’s a reminder that the most likely path to financial independence isn’t chasing meme stocks or “all-in” to Bitcoin.
Even if one of these gambling rewards, let’s hear this. What do you do next? If you lack the right kind of financial discipline, you can blow everything away anyway. After all, this is gambling, so remember the phrase “house always wins.”
I’m not telling you to avoid Bitcoin or GameStop inventory.What I am advocating schedule.. Without it, there is no strategy. You are stepping into the casino with money, and you could go out empty-handed (probably very expensive).
Just as you would when gambling, be careful when guessing. If you rely on those “prize money” to retire you, it’s a dangerous path to take. It’s like quitting your job and hoping your blackjack winnings are enough to pay your bills. Who wants such stress?
Is it possible that the value of Dogecoin goes to the moon? It’s possible, but unlikely — and an investor who turned from Redditors to an investor may make millions of dollars from GameStop’s stock. Bitcoin may become the currency of the future.
But consider other possibilities: what if those big gambling fails?

In this Placer Bytes, we dive into the recovery of top Restaurant Brands International chains, Chick-fil-A and GameStop.
The Chicken Sandwich Effect in Full Effect
Looking at two of the top Restaurant Brands International chains shows the continued strength of QSR. Burger King saw the further shrinking of the year-over-two-year visit gap with visits down just -4.5% the week beginning July 12th. It was the strongest mark of 2021 for Burger King and continues the strong trend the brand has seen in in-store visits.
In the latest example of its newfound strength, Popeyes is again showing tremendous visits growth compared to 2019. Looking at the weeks beginning June 28th, July 5th and July 12th showed visits up 9.5%, 11.6% and 22.6% compared to the equivalent weeks in 2019.
The jump for Popeyes shows again the huge boost the brand received from its Chicken Sandwich launch in August 2019. While weekly visits were up an average of 16.0% from the week of April 19th through the week of July 12th when compared to their 2019 equivalents, the same average was -2.5% down when compared year over year. While the recovery is clearly showing visits moving in the right direction with year over year visits up 8.3% the week beginning July 12th, the results are a further testament to the ‘level’ the brand jumped on the back of the Chicken Wars.
Chick-fil-A, like other QSR leaders, was already showing signs of a recovery in 2020, but while takeaway, delivery and drive-thru strengthened the brand over the last year, in-location visits are now returning as well. Looking at weekly visits compared to 2019 shows that the weeks beginning June 28th and July 12th saw visits down just 2.6% and 1.8% respectively. These are the best marks that Chick-fil-A has seen since the onset of the pandemic’s restaurant impact and indicate a full return could come by later this summer.
Should Chick-fil-A manage to maintain their current strength across channels, the result could be even more impressive than the incredible standard already set by one of the leading QSR chains.
GameStop’s Brighter Future
There may not be a more notable meme stock than GameStop. And the brand not only saw an initial push as a result, but is currently in the midst of an impressive turnaround in terms of visits. Average weekly visits from January through April were down over -17% per week when compared to the 2019 equivalent. Yet, for the five week period beginning the week of June 14th, average weekly visits were down just -6.6%. And this was led by the week beginning July 12th, when visits were down just -2.3%.
Should the brand prove capable of maintaining this trajectory through the Back to School season, the return to ‘normal’ visit rates could hit sooner than expected.
Will QSR leaders like Popeyes, Burger King and Chick-fil-A continue to recover in terms of visits? Can GameStop turn meme stock status into a long term positive trend?

Hashtag URL Adwords Forwarding Offline Internet Marketing System allows offline advertisers to seamlessly bring offline advertisement to the net with natural language keywords!
Patent pending natural language URL keyword ads for websites in any offline media and mobiles!
Advertise Offline, in instant messages and mobile texts with Natural Language URL Substitutes
Ever tried to type a long URL on cell phone browser? Typing URLs into an IM or SMS message is an even bigger pain. Advertisers wanting to bring traffic to their website have tried short-URL sites with their difficult codes, using QR codes, and the latest is using Twitter hashtags and twitter account handles to bring users to a third party site (Twitter) which is never a good idea—but nothing has worked well. Now our URL Adword invention will change everything by allow hashtag natural language URLs to replace long or hard to remember URLs and domains, effectively virtually converting offline advertisement into a digital ad.
We have a patent pending invention that allows anyone to advertise offline, in instant messages and mobile texts, in searches both in search engines, and even in PCs and other devices, among others; and reach complex long analytics laden URLs and paths with easy to remember keywords, slogans, company names, memes, or any desired text of any allowable length in any language. The keywords will usually have a hashtag associated with them, but this is not required. The reason for the hashtag is to differentiate them from regular search terms and because people are used to seeing hashtag advertisements.
The system works by having the browser identify that there is a keyword ad being inputted into the URL address bar or at a search engine search box and offering the appropriate keyword URL ads returns along with the rest of the suggestions. When the entire ad is entered in the URL bar and the user presses enter or they select from one of the suggestions, the surfer is taken to the exact URL associated with the keyword ad. When the advertiser purchased the keyword or keyword combination they equated it to a specific URL, which they can change on the fly as many times as they like, and when the browser gets the command it sends the surfer that specific URL. The advertiser pays for each click-through to their site just as they would a regular PPC keyword ad.
The user or surfer gets to reach long complex URLs with simple easy to remember natural language keywords which they can see or hear anywhere or follow from IMs and SMSs and they never have to remember the URL or even domain.
These PPC keyword ads will eventually become a meme for many companies and many people will reach them easier by remember these keywords. Also using them in cell phones they make it perfectly easy to type the words into SMSs and other IMs and they are breeze for navigating in mobile browsers as they can even be dictated! For the advertiser, which now get a 1% follow through with any URL posted in offline ads, they get a huge uptake in response for each offline advertisement. No more having to send people to hashtags in third party website such as Twitter or posting QR codes that most do not even know how to read as most phone do not come with an app ready to read them. Advertisers get their message through and get clear trackable responses to their offline advertisement and their websites are easier to reach from mobile devices!
Huge $117 Billion Digital Marketing Market Potential
The PPC Keyword ad market is huge! A total of $117 Billion was spent last year! Google made $38.6 Billion all by itself, that is a bit more than $3 Billions per month! And yet in drastic contract offline ads are woefully ineffective representing only 1% vs. 54% effectiveness for digital ads. This invention will make offline ads as effective as or more effective than digital ads. Yet it will not rob the current digital marketing potential since it does not compete with it, the URL Adwords will only explode digital marketing revenues!
Here is How URL Adwords will Revolutionize Offline Advertisement and Converts it to Digital Advertisement
For this example, assume that a bar owner for a bar called Cheers is trying to advertise his bar with a URL Adword.
He visits the Adword URL Registry by typing# url Ad Registry or any number of other variations. After registering just as he would for any other online advertising account he searches for available URL ads and he can choose from many types of hashtags for his keyword URL as show in the image. He chooses the start (*) hashtag because it fits his needs best, but he can purchase multiple hashtags or no hashtag URL ads as well.
After purchasing the URL Adword the merchant sets the URL forwarding so that when a user types and hits returns or clicks on a link they can be taken to this URL. The URL can be any legal URL as long as allowed and with as many tracking variables as desired.
The merchant can also change the URL as many time as he desires for example to send respondents to a different landing page.
When someone searches or types in the URL address bar of a browser, the browser will talk to the registry to receive the URL forwarding URL and when the ad is clicked on or activated it will forward the customer to that URL taking the user to the specified page as it would if they clicked on a normal link or typed a URL in the URL bar.
The merchant places offline ads in any media, TV, radio, print, billboards, newspapers, magazines, etc. and uses the URL Adword hashtag on the offline ad to help the viewer or listener to create an association with them and remember the URL well since it is in natural language and is catchy enough to remember and perhaps even create a meme in the mind of the consumer.
When the consumer hears or views the ad they key-in or dictate the URL Adword into the browser to get to the webpage. They can also send the URL Adword as a link using SMS and other participating messengers to send their friends to the URL simply by clicking on them just as they would normally click on an SMS link.
Merchants can use URL ads as they currently use PPC Adwords even if they do not advertise by buying keywords related to their business and securing that whenever someone is searching for these keywords they can reach them faster even before their search is over.
As they type on the address bar or even in the search box in Google and other search engines, they will receive the same suggestions as they currently receive but among them in a different color will be the URL Adwords so they can tell they are ads. They can click on any of them to be taken to them. They can also discover different related URL Adwords they may be interested in exploring as part of their suggestions.
If they received the URL Adword in a text message they can simply click on it as they would any regular URL and be taken to the page.
They can also use navigation tools written into the operating system that allows them to find common paths to files by giving these long cumbersome paths a simple natural language URL Adword or in this case Path Macro.
Whether a URL Adword or Path Macro, this invention allows for people to navigate both in the net and also inside their devices or make search engine and other kinds of searches more useful and easier.
Microsoft, Apple, and Google for example can now do URL Adwords out of their OS Search and Path Address bars in their OSs and make money without anti-trust concerns!
After using the URL ad the consumer reaches the website just as if he would have typed the URL manually or clicked-through from a link. The URL Adword is transparent and works like any other link. It is not a domain replacement it is simply an easy way to advertise offline and a new way to navigate through difficult paths by building a natural word macro.
Since it is an ad and there are many interested parties involved they all get paid upon the click taking place.
The browsers, OSes, IM software, and others get paid for incorporating the URL ads into their systems. If a consumer purchases a set of keywords as an investment and leases the keywords to others, then they also get paid. Any affiliates involved will also receive their payment, and of course the registry will receive its payment. Everyone wins, if merchants and intermediaries participate in allowing the URL ads or macros to work, they receive a portion of the fees; and the users get an easy way to navigate and remember important websites, paths, and other locations and also find it easier to text URLs to their friends and share URLs. The internet itself gets refreshed to a more modern way of navigation from its original old ways of navigating and therefore it progresses forward! The internet progresses from DOS to Windows 95!
The consumer wants to share the website with his friend Tina so they can both take advantage of the ad in it. So he SMSs Tina with a message that includes the URL Adword in it. The text software participates and automatically highlights the URL Ad as it normally highlights URLs.
Text messaging URLs and paths becomes super easy and navigating with natural language URLs makes surfing, especially in mobile devices a friction free experience!
Tina received his text and knows because it is highlighted that the URL Adword is a link and just as she would click on any link in her text messages she taps on it and it takes her straight to the website as if it was a regular URL.
If he had decided to email the URL Ad, it would work the same as with SMS or if he sent it via other Instant messengers that participated, it would work just as easily!
When Tina clicks on her SMS she gets taken to the website with a coupon for both of them to use and also to receive the address of the bar. It works exactly as if she had clicked on a normal URL.
As with the first click-through all merchant participants get paid but this time the SMS software also gets their cut of the money pie and once again everyone wins, the participants get paid and Tina visited the website with ease! She will also easily remember the natural language URL Ad and use it in the future when trying to reach the bar again which gives the bar greater traffic from repeat customers.
Consumers win because they do not even have to remember difficult to spell domains or URLs, they simply have to remember the keywords for the sites they like to visit and they can easily get to them without changing anything in the way they reach them now as they use the same mechanisms to reach the websites currently. But with natural language URL ads it is soooh much easier to type or dictate and to remember the “URLs”!
For the merchant there is not much different either on the way they purchase ads online. Except that now they have an easy way to get consumers to their websites using easy to remember natural language ads. They also get an added benefit that the ads can also be used for their slogans, product names, company name, etc. so they can further brand themselves better. One of the greatest benefits is that if the URL Adwords are catchy they can become a great meme in the consumer’s mind and they can easily keep them in mind and visit more often because of this.
The days of struggling to monetize offline ads better is over and now with this new invention merchants have an easy way to essentially transform their offline ads into digital ads!
We are actively seeking investors for this gazillion dollar invention!
We do not need much money to make this work. We only need an angel investor or someone who can get us talking to Google, Facebook, Microsoft, or Apple because I am sure they would fund it immediately if they realized its potential! We would give a small piece of the company for an introduction and facilitation that leads to a deal with any of these entities or a smaller amount for an introduction that leads to a deal with Yahoo!
There are also two additional inventions that actually came before this one, but we needed to create this one first before the other two worked! Once this invention is implemented it opens the way for two other transformative inventions,

This week I’m musing about a nonfiction book I recently finished–and can’t stop thinking about!
Empty Mansions: The Mysterious Life of Huguette Clark and the Spending of a Great American Fortune by Bill Dedman and Paul Clark Newell Jr.
WOW—this was a fascinating read!
Huguette Clark was a New York heiress who was so reclusive and secretive that, at the time of her death just a few years ago at age 104, no new photographs of her had been seen in decades. Born in 1906, she was the daughter of self-made copper industrialist W. A. Clark, who was nearly as rich as Rockefeller and Carnegie, and who was also a controversial senator, railroad builder, and one of the founders of the city of Las Vegas. She grew up in the largest house in New York City–121 rooms for a family of four–and she owned paintings by Degas and Renoir, a Stradivarius violin, and a vast collection of antique dolls and dollhouses. After an extremely brief marriage (she returned home alone just days into her honeymoon) she eventually owned enormously expensive homes in California, New York, and Connecticut, yet they stood vacant as she lived her last twenty years in a simple New York City hospital room, despite being in excellent health. She gave away millions of dollars in money and gifts to charities, foundations promoting the arts, and her employees–some of whom never saw her or spoke to her except via phone or through closed doors.
At her death in 2011, her estate was valued in excess of $300 million dollars. However, it was discovered that she’d left two signed wills—one leaving her wealth to her remaining family members (distant relatives from her father’s first marriage, most of whom hadn’t spoken to her in decades–she had no children of her own), the other leaving everything to her lawyers, long-time private nurse, and other employees. The question was, had she been in control of her fortune, or was she being controlled by the people she hired to care for her and manage her money? And why did she spend the last 20 years of her life living in a hospital, when even her doctors agreed that there was no medical reason for doing so?
If you love to escape by reading about the lives of the impossibly rich, or if you like a good investigative treatment of a modern day mystery, give this book a try. When I finished it, I immediately went online to do some research about what has happened with Huguette’s estate since the book was published—but I won’t share what I found, as I don’t want to create any spoilers for those of you who may choose to read it.
How about you? What are you reading these days? Please share! |
ICYMI (In Case You Missed It) Sunday is a new meme that I am planning to feature on the blog every week. It is based on the Sunday Post which is a weekly meme hosted by Kimba the Caffeinated Book Reviewer, which was in turn inspired in part by the In My Mailbox meme. Basically, it allows me to let you know what went on the blog this week and anything interesting that is going on. It will also allow me to showcase any books I receive like the Showcase Sunday which is hosted by Vicky at Books, Biscuits, and Tea.
The first week of March has been a good week. The book I pre-ordered has arrived, but more of that later, and I seem to be slowly hauling myself out of my reading slump. Yay! Whoops! Apparently I was more tired than I thought when I wrote this last night. You can definitely tell that spring is arriving in the UK, there’s been plenty of sun and blue sky this week – although the mornings haven’t always been as nice as the afternoons, with mist and such. I seem to have got back into the reading groove, which I’m pleased about. Hopefully I’ll keep it up this week.
There were two posts on the blog this week:
- 5 star review of THE COLDEST GIRL IN COLDTOWN by Holly Black
- GIVEAWAY – 1 copy of THE COLDEST GIRL IN COLDTOWN by Holly Black //signed// and 1 copy of DOLL BONES by Holly Black. Open Internationally. Follow the link to enter and for the rules.
What else is going on? Not a lot of news this week compared with last, but I think there’s still some interesting stuff.
- The Guardian observes a survey by Booktrust, which shows a significant link between class divisions and how much time people devote to reading. You can find more here (http://www.theguardian.com/books/2014/mar/11/survey-class-divide-reading-habits?CMP=twt_fd) And just in case you’re like me and don’t know, ABCDE refer to socio-economic categories…
- SUVUDU have a new release interview with Kim Harrison about THE UNDEAD POOL – the penultimate book in her HOLLOWS series – here (http://paranormal.suvudu.com/2014/03/new-release-interview-the-undead- pool-by-kim-harrison.html)
- Code Name: Comic Maker! On 15th and 16th March Discover Children’s Story Centre in London are having an illustrator event where some great illustrators are on hand all day to guide you through making your own comic. For more info follow the link (http://www.discover.org.uk/whatson/event/code-name-comic-maker-the-big-write-stories-remixed) I know it’s short notice, but if you’re down in London Town anyway you might want to check it out.
- Anne Rice has announced that she is writing another book in THE VAMPIRE CHRONICLES focusing on Lestat de Lioncourt called PRINCE LESTAT find out more here (http://www.themarysue.com/anne-rice-writing-more-lestat/).
- Goodreads has an interview with Melissa de la Cruz where members of the site have submitted questions and she has answered some of them. (https://www.goodreads.com/interviews/show/937.Melissa_de_la_Cruz)
Not as much news this week, but there are some interesting things going on. I’m in two minds about THE VAMPIRE CHRONICLES news, but I guess I’ll have to wait until October to know for sure. And I really enjoyed Melissa de la Cruz’s interview. No new books from me this week – I’m still playing catch-up with my tbr, but the pile is getting smaller so hopefully I’ll be able to get new books soon-ish.
I would love to hear what you’ve been up to this week and what books, if any, you’ve got so please leave me a link in the comments below.
Thanks for stopping by |
What happens after your business tweets, posts on Facebook, or shares a whitepaper on LinkedIn? Quantifying the impact of social media strategy has long been a serious challenge faced by marketing agencies and SEO strategists. While numerous social media tools and agencies purport to measure social media impact, more metrics do not translate into better information. After all, the number of fans, likes or re-tweets does not always lead to a stronger brand or increased market share.
Understanding Social Media Metrics
Unlike television and other traditional mass media advertisements, social media is not a one-way marketing tool. When businesses treat social media as another platform for shouting at potential customers, they fall short. Good social media marketing welcomes participation, builds community, and enhances an individual’s relationship with your business’s brand. In short, effective social media marketing is all about making real connections with real people.
For now, let’s stop obsessing over the number of Twitter followers or retweets your brand receives. Instead, let’s follow the advice of digital marketing analyst Avinash Kaushik and focus on key interactivity metrics that measure conversation, amplification, and applause rates. These metrics provide true insight into effective social media strategy.
The conversation rate is the number of audience replies or comments per post. From Instagram to Facebook, this rate can easily be obtained for virtually every post shared via social media. A high conversation rate requires a deep understanding of your audience and what motivates your audience to communicate with your brand. Meaningful conversations are not created overnight. They start by sharing thought-provoking, original and relevant information.
Social media is like attending a giant cocktail party: in order to get the conversation started, you need to share something interesting. Sure, provocative or even shocking topics will get your audience involved – but not always in a manner that adds value to your business! Finding the right topics for involvement may take a little time, but the pay-off for brand engagement is much greater than merely sharing your latest company blog post.
What a low conversation rate means for your business:
Are your tweets merely an RSS feed for your company’s blog or sales announcements? A low conversation rate means that followers are not motivated to comment or respond to your posts. Be sure the information you are posting is relevant and original. Encourage dialogue by ending each post with a question.
Traditional advertising is limited by the number of ads that can be purchased. Even if you bought all the airtime for every primetime television show, there are still a finite number of ads that your company could run. Social media is different. Not only does your business have its own network, but every member of your network has its own separate network. Information can easily travel beyond your network and reach a massive audience. For example, let’s say your business is new to Twitter and has only 500 followers. Depending on the strength of these follower’s networks, however, your secondary network reach could be over one million people.
Amplification rate is the number of retweets or shares per post. This rate is an important measurement because it quantifies the reach of your network. Amplification rate also provides insight into popular content. The content that is shared and retweeted most frequently adds the greatest value to your business.
What a low amplification rate means for your business:
People share information that solves a problem, is a major news story or cultural event, challenges assumptions, or simply adds a humor to their day. If your amplification rates are low, consider the quality, value and uniqueness of each post. Timing also matters. Since new spreads instantly on social media; resist the urge to rehash old news. Be sure every post has a fresh, relevant angle that adds value to your audience’s day.
Applause rate measures your audience’s perception of post quality. Sure, you may think that the information you are sharing is interesting and original, but if no one likes or favorites a post, that’s a clear sign you do not fully understand your audience. While the number of “likes” your post receives may not translate into new customers, the applause rate is still an important tool for taking your audience’s pulse.
What a low applause rate means for your business:
A low applause rate indicates your posts are falling flat. Your brand is failing to resonate with your target audience. Sure, sharing the latest meme or a funny video may temporarily spike your applause rate. To truly improve applause rate, however, your business needs to focus on improving post quality.
Next Steps: How Interactivity Metrics Improve Social Media Strategy
Conversation rate, amplification rate and applause rate are three key metrics for better understanding your audience and your brand’s relationship with this audience. Remember, you do not participate in social media only to drive your business’s bottom line.
While economic metrics are important – and can easily be measured by establishing conversion goals in Google Analytics for your social media visitors – successful social media strategy is about more than increasing sales. Social media is a powerful platform for building a mutually rewarding relationship with customers. By tracking key interactivity metrics, your business will gain insight into your customer base and ultimately strengthen client relationships. |
Robinhood stocks rose again on Wednesday, continuing a wild rally in the newly public stock trading app. Trading was suspended several times due to the volatility.
The stock closed 50.4% at $ 70.39 per share, which increased its weekly earnings to more than 100%. Robinhood stock hit $ 85 intermittently, up 81% from Tuesday's close.
Robinhood stock makes up for its lackluster debut on Nasdaq last week. The stock opened at $ 38 per share on Thursday, the lower end of its offering range, but then fell 8% on day one and traded largely below that price until Tuesday, when it rose more than 24%.
The volatile stock surpassed its debut IPO volume of 102.5 million shares and traded over 104.6 million shares on Wednesday.
Zoom In Icon Arrows pointing outwards
It's unclear what exactly is driving the stock up on Wednesday, but on Tuesday ARK Invest's Cathie Wood bought 89,622 HOOD shares in the ARK Fintech Innovation ETF, a position valued at approximately $ 4.2 million based on the closing price by Robinhood of $ 46.80. The position is in addition to the approximately 3.15 million shares Wood has bought from Robinhood since the company's debut last week. The popular investor's attention usually goes to growth stocks.
"It looks like ARK Investments has taken a large stake, and it seems like retailers are getting involved, too," said John Heagerty of Atlantic Equities. Heagerty has an overweight rating on Robinhood and a price target of $ 65 per share.
“It's not normal for a stock this size to move that fast. I think that would put institutional investors off, ”added Heagerty, who still believes the platform Robinhood created has a lot of value.
CNBC Pro's Stock Picks and Investment Trends:
Robinhood has also attracted the attention of the individual investors it serves. Speculative activity exploded this year when day traders in online chat rooms managed to create massive short squeezes on names like GameStop and AMC Entertainment, causing great pain for short sellers and rocking the volatility of the overall market. Robinhood is considered a major gateway to what is known as meme stocks.
HOOD is the number one ticker on the WallStreetBets tracker Swaggy Stocks, which shows 700+ mentions on the Reddit chat room. Robinhood was also the most heavily traded stock on Fidelity on Wednesday morning.
"Unpopular opinion: Robinhood still has the best mobile interface," it says in a post with 4,600 interactions.
Robinhood CEO and co-founder Vlad Tenev defended individual investors investing in Reddit names, saying the phenomenon is giving competitive companies access to capital they would otherwise not have.
"I think it's a real thing. There are customers who love these companies, they want them to thrive," Tenev told CNBC's Andrew Ross Sorkin on Thursday ahead of the stock trading app's Nasdaq debut. "You can see that [meme stocks] are also given resources that allow them to hire really good management teams in some cases and then build them for the future."
"It's a payment for the order flow story with crypto as a kind of kicker," said Stephanie Link, chief investment strategist at Hightower, on Wednesday to CNBC's "Squawk Box". “In the second quarter, total sales increased by 5 to 10% compared to the first quarter. If you look at the payment for order flow data, that number is even down 23% in the second quarter competitive, but the crypto kicker is probably helping Robinhood and they are likely to gain stake. "
“However, it's super expensive. It's hard to get your hands on the 11x price-to-sales valuation, ”added Link. The online broker Charles Schwab trades 7x.

Journey Based Advertising: Chapter Six
Having a social presence is a must
Having one on every network? Not always.
Different social networks attract different audiences, so unless your target audience is the entire world population, in which case we suggest you get a new marketing manager, you probably don’t need a to be on every social platform, or at least you don’t need to have a full-fledged marketing plan that includes each platform.
Here’s a breakdown of each social media platform, and what they are best for in terms of advertising and reaching the right audience.
Jump to the Social Platform
More than 30% of the world’s population use it
Ideal for most brands, although typically we see more B2C companies. Audience targeting is the best way to target, and Facebook Ad’s Manager gives us plenty of options.
- Core/Saved audiences: based on criteria like age, interests, and geography
- Custom: Get in touch with people who are already familiar with your product
- Lookalike: Reach new people whose interests are similar to those of your best customers
- Ad types: Photo, video, lead forms, story, and more.
Facebook Messenger – Good for retargeting
1 billion monthly users aged 18-34
Ideal for a brand who rely on imagery to sell, again we see mostly B2C business here. There are three ways to advertise on Instagram:
- Promoted Posts/Stories in the app
- Create boosted ad’s in Facebook
- Create Instagram specific ad campaigns in Facebooks Ad Manager – we recommend doing this as you have more control and can optimise for Instagram specifically
660 million monthly active members
Great for B2B as it is the largest platform for working professionals. LinkedIn offers unique targeting options:
- Job title
- Job function
- Job industry
330 million monthly users
Twitter is ideal for B2B and e-commerce as it leans more towards a professional network, as it’s main uses are for news and customer service updates/replies. Twitter adverting platform allows you to target by objectives:
Awareness – If you want the max reach
Tweet Engagement – If you want more retweets, likes, etc
Follows – If you want to grow your twitter following
Website Clicks – To drive traffic to your site
App Downloads – To get more app downloads
300 million monthly users
This is great for businesses who have a female audience and those who rely on visuals for a sale. Advertising on Pinterest is pretty straight forward:
- Pick a pin
- Decide who sees it
- Pay for results
- Track what’s working
2 billion users, second largest search engine behind Google
YouTube is a great option for both B2B and B2C, especially if you have video advertising resources. YouTube lets you choose to show ads before, during, or after a video.
218 million users ages 18-24
Ideal for B2C due to the younger age range. There are many ways to advertise on Snapchat: Story ads, sponsored tiles, and augmented reality lens (sponsored by a business)
500 million monthly users
A fairly new social network, Tic Tok has a younger audience so is ideal for B2C although we have seen B2B make an appearance. Ad’s are still limited on the platform, but they are available and should be:
- Geared for awareness, not for leads or traffic
- Appropriate for a younger audience
- Aimed at laughs; meme’s dance challenges, etc
Still unsure what platform your business should focus on for your paid social strategy? Get in touch with the ExtraDigital team today and we will be happy to give you some advice!
Next Chapter: 07 - Advantages of Search (Pay-Per-Click) Ads |
The present is filled with catastrophe and apocalypticism. A certain phrase has been deployed and redeployed in summarising the condition we find ourselves in: it is easier to imagine the end of the world than the end of capitalism. While this phrase is typically used to crystallise capitalist realism, the idea that there is no alternative to capitalism, it also distils another truth: the end of the world has become the very air that we breathe.
As compelling as the discourse on apocalypticism might be it makes one fundamental mistake: it colludes with the very sense of impending catastrophe that it is usually trying to critique or to use as a means to mobilise a political movement. In what follows, I want to discussthe relation between catastrophe and apocalypse, and to look at what it would mean to shift the emphasis on the terms. I don’t mean to restate that catastrophe and apocalypse mean different things for its own sake but rather to emphasise that from the perspective of a postnihilist praxis we are neither catastrophic nor apocalyptic but living within the time of catastrophe as post-apocalyptic survivors.
Whether we turn our attention to the hyperobject of the climate and mounting predictions of ecocide or toward the ongoing catastrophe of Fukushima it is clear that we are living in apocalyptic times. We look to our economic structures- to capitalism itself- and we see the old vampire in the familiar poses of death throes; an oft-rehearsed death that has never come. The global economy, despite recent bubbles and upswings in manufacturing, is still in a state of terminal decline. The death of capitalism is everywhere predicated on its logic of growth, a logic that American anarchists Murray Bookchin once compared to another version of the undead: the infinite proliferation of cancer cells.
Another popular slogan: “we can’t sustain infinite growth on a planet of finite resources”. We have hit peak oil production, desertified the lungs of the earth, we are chasing new and dangerous sources of gas. Intimately, we are chained to cycles of accumulating debt that morally and materially shackle so many of us to meaningless “bullshit” jobs, with only compulsive hedonism as our empty reward. When we turn on the news we are met with images of drones bombing civilians in other lands or news of rising food prices and falling wages, we are shown images of disaster and death- a 24 hour news stream of collapse. Our nervous systems are constantly wired into networks of information, data and advertising that move faster than our brains can cope with, and permanently activate our threat response systems.
The ecological and financial collapse are thus conjoined to a psychophysiological one. All of this, more than any other time in history, happening as the result of an integral accident: capitalism itself. This is part of what it means to say that “the present” is an accomplished nihilism, other elements being the fallout of Darwinism and astrophysics. This is what it means to say that the present is filled with apocalypticism: we feel that the catastrophe is about to befall us, and we feel our vulnerability and impotence in the face of it.
If the world is this accomplished nihilism this means that nihilism is no longer a position or a disposition, no longer an anti-theoretical get out jail free card. There is no such thing as “a nihilist” or a “nihilist philosophy”. We know that there are no Gods who can save us, and there are no transcendental signifiers that can stand in God’s empty place. The history of postmodernism as the history of the death of metanarratives and grand discourses mirrors the various truths that have brought us to realisation that nihilism is not a meme or a cultural mood but a condition of materiality itself. Matter is meaningless, the universe is without purpose, and everything is fragile, precarious, heading towards destruction, and there are no philosophical tools that we can draw on to make this all better. In the most extreme expressions of these truths, we know that the sun will explode and the cosmos will cool, become inactive and “die”. So we have the most proximal and the most distal evidences of the unshakeable conviction that the it is materiality that is the nihilist. There are those that argue that apocalypticism is a natural and automatic response to this discovery- to obsessively approach the “end of the world” through fiction, film, cultural products of all kinds, so as to engage in the grandest of anxieties whilst neutralising it. Hence, a proliferation of disaster movies, of zombie movies, of films about dirty bombs and infections and outbreaks.
This year this trend has taken a new turn. Three films have come out that describe themselves as apocalypse comedies: It’s a disaster!; The world’s end; This is the end. These new films join Ghostbusters, Dr. Strangelove, Shaun of the dead, and Zombieland as films that imagine the end of the world in order to laugh at it. We could see in these films the attempt to take terrifying prospects of collapse and destruction and render them safe by having characters do and say stupid things or, in the case of Strangelove, as dark satires that reveal how the apocalypse could be brought on through the ineptitude of our leaders. Grim visions populate the imaginary of these films alongside slapstick humour and darker shades of humour that almost revel in the coming of the end. This might have been a legitimate way to read these films once but today, and especially in regard to the new crop, we have to read these films from within nihilism. If we no longer have a theoretical obsession with “the end” such that postmodernism was unable to break itself free from (the end of history, the end of politics, the end of the end) it is because “the end” has become as inevitable as the sunrise. Edgar Wright, director of Shaun… and World’s end has said that these films represent a ‘laughter in the face of death’, but what good is that laughter when the prospect of human extinction looms on the horizon and masses of people are struggling to eat, keep a roof over their head, or resist the seduction of suicide? No, I think it makes more sense to view these films via the golden rule of comedy: tragedy+time=comedy. It is possible to laugh at horror only once that horror has passed; it is possible to make light of tragedy only when the tragedy has been left behind. Following that rule, it is possible to laugh at the catastrophe because it has already occurred.
A statement like that (“the catastrophe has already happened”) seems strange. I am sitting in my flat, drinking coffee and smoking, a stomach full of food, waiting for a start date for my new job, writing on a laptop powered by electricity, electricity that is supplied by a fully functional national grid, powered by industrial processes that are keeping the lights of the world bright. The idea that I am a post-apocalyptic survivor, that I am someone living in the midst of a catastrophic collapse, might seem ridiculous or insulting. Yet this would be to reduce the register of the real merely to the actual and thereby obliterate the potencies that are at work in materiality without yet fully being expressed. In this regard, Fukushima becomes a perfect case-study.
In 2011 Japan was hit by a tsunami that disabled the cooling systems of the Fukushima nuclear power plant’s reactors, causing three of them to melt down. The meltdown was triggered by the decay-heat that the reactors typically give off and that the coolant system is designed to regulate. When the coolant systems failed the resultant overheating led to hydrogen explosions. The meltdown, dramatic though it was, caused no deaths. The earthquake-tsunami had killed thousands but a nuclear power station going into meltdown had caused none and all the workers were reportedly safe and unharmed. It has since been revealed that Fukushima has a history of falsified safety records with similar flooding incidents in the past and warnings from plant workers going unheeded for some time. In 2012 The Fukushima Nuclear Accident Independent Investigation Commission found that the plant itself was unknown to be unable to withstand earthquakes and tsunami impacts and that no risk assessment or planning had been carried out by any of the agencies involved in the plant’s development and regulation. In short, although there was clearly a huge ensemble of ontological bodies at work in the meltdown (water, wind, the earth, the materials of construction, hydrogen molecules, coolant systems, capital, government regulatory bodies, individuals, workers etc), all reports could conclude that this was a man-made disaster. Still, no one died and radiation poisoning and carcinogenic mutation was predicted to be low to none.
That is, until July 22 2013 when Fukushima was declared to be leaking massive amounts of highly radioactive materials into the Pacific Ocean. The BBC quote Masayuki Ono, a manager at the Tokyo Electrical Power Company (owner of the Fukushima plant), as admitting that
One hundred millisieverts per hour is equivalent to the limit for accumulated exposure over five years for nuclear workers; so it can be said that we found a radiation level strong enough to give someone a five-year dose of radiation within one hour.
To date, about 300 million tonnes of the incredibly potent radioactive material has flooded into the Pacific Ocean and has been absorbed by now contaminated soil. While TEPCO have so far said that this presents no environmental risk, and the government has backed these claims up. Yet in 2011 it was shown that long-lived cesium contaminated (30,000 sq km) of the surface-area of Japan, and that large areas of that had very high radiation levels (inc. in Tokyo’s drinking water). This cesium has now claimed most of the now depopulated 800 sq km exclusion zone from which inhabitants were evacuated for safety reasons. The cesium-137 that has contaminated these areas has a half-life of approximately 30 years, with some predicting that nucleotide disappearance won’t occur for hundred of years. As such, there is a distinct possibility that the radioactive contamination is going to outlast everyone living in Japan today. Cesium-137 contamination isn’t just massively distributed as time but also as space. As cesium is incredibly soluble it can quite easily and rapidly contaminate not just water and soil but the animal and plant life that make these their habitats, spreading like a virus through a body whose immune system has been crippled. Such contamination has been found in tea leaves, beef, spinach, milk and fish some 200 miles offshore. As cesium-137 becomes distributed across various ecologies the danger it poses increases, with reports of a 40% increase in thyroid problems in children being one immediate result. Japan exports fish (halibut, landlocked kokanee, cod, carp, sole trout, and eel) caught in its coastal waters and further out into the Pacific to countries like Canada, distributing radioactive pollutants still further. In June 2012 the Japanese Fisheries Agency reported that fish were found with 65 becquerels of cesium per kilo, a higher reading than immediately after the disaster and far higher than is safe for consumption. The United States may also be at risk given Salmon migratory patterns. More broadly, questions could be asked about the safety of Japanese exports (such as contaminated baby formula).
There is a vast onto-cartography at work here that connects species of fish to coolant systems to hydrogen molecules to legislation on nuclear safety; legislators, parliaments, regulatory bodies, anti-nuclear activists; ideas like environmentalism; the food supply networks and geographic distribution of production centres; work practices; capital investments and the wider financial markets as Tepco’s shares fall; and those networks that specifically effect human beings in the exclusion area. After all, this exclusion zone has seen thousands of families leave their homes, their jobs, their friends, and the possessions that had been rewarded to them as recompense for their alienated labour. Consider that some of these people are still paying mortgages on homes they will probably never be able to return to safely. And there remains one more reactor in the water that has not melted down but possibly will- if not by human efforts to recover the fuel rods, then by the possibility of another unpredicted earthquake and/or tsunami. I don’t have the space or the desire to trace the onto-cartography of this disaster but it is clear that it includes both geological, ecological and capitalist bodies; indeed, it is clear that the capitalist bodies might be the ones that are ultimately responsible. According to Christina Consolo,
all this collateral damage will continue for decades, if not centuries, even if things stay exactly the way they are now. But that is unlikely, as bad things happen like natural disasters and deterioration with time…earthquakes, subsidence, and corrosion, to name a few. Every day that goes by, the statistical risk increases for this apocalyptic scenario. No one can say or know how this will play out, except that millions of people will probably die even if things stay exactly as they are, and billions could die if things get any (here).
I raise the spectre of Fukushima as catastrophe and as apocalyptic because it accords to what Timothy Morton has described as a hyperobject. In ‘Zero Landscapes in the time of hyperobjects’ Morton defines the states that
Objects are beginning to compel us, from outside the wall. The objects we ignored for centuries, the objects we created in the process of ignoring other ones: plutonium, global warming. I call them hyperobjects. Hyperobjects are real objects that are massively distributed in time and space. Good examples would be global warming and nuclear radiation. Hyperobjects are so vast, so long lasting, that they defy human time and spatial scales. They wouldn’t fit in a landscape painting. They could never put you in the right mood.
The ontocartography or “map of entities” that we could trace in relation to Fukushima doesn’t just include all those bodies we have listed already but also, and most importantly, it includes the radiation itself. Born of the unstable hybridisation of techno-materiality and geo-materiality in pursuit of energy to satisfy the logic of the infinite growth of capital, the hyperobject of Fukushima’s radiation was unleashed and now exists independently of those techno-geo-capitalist assemblages. That this radiation exists on a huge spatio-temporal scale means that it exists beyond our evolved capacity to think. We evolved to cope with and to handle a world of mid-sized objects, the very tools and raw materials that helped to build Fukushima. In the language of transcorporealist thought: the weaving or interpenetration of various autonomous ontological bodies has led to this body composed of bodies. Just as numerous minerals, cells, exogenous microorganisms, mitochondria, oxygen, lactic acid, sugars, contact lenses, and so on go up to constitute my body in their choreographic co-actualisation so to does this process give rise to a similar shift in scale. In my body the shift is that from the molecular to the “molar” scale but in this case, the shift is from the “molar” to the hyper-scale. The radiation unleashed by the Fukushima meltdown exists on a geological spatial and temporal scale that the human animal is not equipped to readily perceive.
Such hyperobjects proliferate around us and are equally hard to detect in our proximal engagement with the various worlds we inhabit. They range from incidents like Fukushima to the more encompassing threats of the collapse of capital, ecocide and cosmic death that I mentioned above. The reason I have focussed on Fukushima is to illustrate the point that the catastrophe has already taken place. In relation to the example of Fukushima the catastrophe occurred two years ago but will be ongoing for centuries. That I can sit here in all my relative comfort and enjoy the benefits of being a white male in Britain does not mean that I am any the less existing after the catastrophe. Catastrophes are discreet events that explode into being, even if such an explosion can seem very slow as they happen on the scale of vast temporalities. In the last analysis that can’t be carried out, the cosmos itself exists as one huge catastrophe; the moment of the big bang being the cosmic event, everything else since being the unfolding of that catastrophic actualisation working itself out.
In his book Combined and uneven apocalypse Evan Calder Williams noted that when we watch apocalyptic movies we often find ourselves watching scenes of devastation and horror, scenes that often resemble those found in Japan throughout this radiological crisis. Calder Williams points out that the destruction and the struggle for survival that we see in these films is in fact the very same destruction and struggle for survival we sometimes see on the news, but which is more commonly hidden from view. For Calder Williams it is what is hidden from view that is important in the apocalyptic moment. Apocalypse is about
‘all that we know very well yet regard as exceptional nightmares or accidents to be corrected with better, greener, more ethical management: hellish zones of the world, whole populations destroyed in famine and sickness, “humanitarian” military interventions, the basic and unincorporable fact of class antagonism’ (p.8).
According to Jacques Ranciere, the world of capitalism is predicated, in part, on a ‘distribution of the sensible’. This concept refers to the capacity of capital and states to determine a legitimate perceptual order that invalidates any other way of corporeally engaging with society. The ‘sensible’ here is the sensible of the sensibility of the flesh, its perceptual-affective ability to generate a world for itself from its embodied and cognitive engagements with materiality. In effect, the improvised nature of our creaturely production of a common umwelt becomes a site of control from choreographic interventions that recompose spatial and bodily comportment by erecting various partitions. For instance, the partitions between what is audible and inaudible, what is touchable and untouchable, what is thinkable and unthinkable and, most importantly here, between what is visible and invisible. This distribution of the sensible operates to include some aspects of the sensible world and to exclude other elements that might otherwise upset a community in which roles and class positions have been assigned. With this in mind it makes sense to understand that even if the catastrophe has already happened it has not happened everywhere at the same time because of that. In other words, alongside the distribution of the sensible, which regulated how, where, and what bodies may perceive, there is a concomitant distribution of the catastrophic that is open to the apocalyptic.
This opening onto the apocalyptic is clear insofar as it is through representations of the unevenly distributed catastrophe that we can glean an insight into the fact of the catastrophe having already occurred. In the industrialised world the catastrophe can only appear in pockets scattered here and there, as the police order that underpins the distribution of the sensible can’t allow our bodies into conscious perceptual contact with the catastrophe. Should we gain phenomenological exposure and conscious awareness of the catastrophe of the world this might coalesce into apocalyptic vision. For Willaims, capitalism itself is already the post-apocalyptic world of the zombie movie. At this point it should be obvious that Evan Calder Williams is already engaged in thinking about post-nihilist praxis. Yet part of the problem with this version of such a praxis is that it too heavily stresses the spatial aspect of apocalypse, and that this already accomplished apocalypticism is one in which the apocalypse is waiting to happen. Yet this is precisely the point of declaring that the catastrophe has already occured: regardless of the empirical-material actualisation of the catastrophe, which has already begun, is already underway, imperceptibly, and all too silently, the corporeality of the catastrophe is already with us. It is not simply that the problem is unevenly distributed in space, just as Trotsky and David Harvey write of capitalist development, but that it is unevenly distributed in time.
Williams points out that apocalypse has to do with seeing the visible that is hidden- the hell zones of the world ruined by capitalism. Yet this is too limited. The hell zones aren’t just places already without water, already at war, already exclusion zones: it is not just places that have been plunged back into material scarcity, it is also with us in our lives. While we might be waiting to join these people in material terms we should not look to their situations as prophecies of our own and thereby continue the Eurocentrism of the past. While the material conditions are unevenly distributed, while the catastrophe has already happened, it is clear that we have not everywhere become post-catastrophic. This doesn’t prevent us from being post-apocalyptic in a strong sense of the term of the Greek ἀποκάλυψις. The word means un-covering and is typically received in theological circles as referring to revelation, especially in relation to the Biblical endtimes. If our condition is that of being survivors of a catastrophe that has already happened then it is also the case that we are post-apocalyptic survivors. This is because we have seen the nihilism of the world, despite the best attempts of capitalism and the state to suture the traumatic wounds in the time of our being. We are no longer waiting for the end.
This point, the point of living after the catastrophe and as post-apocalyptic, is often missed by people who are engaged in thinking about it. For instance, in First as tragedy, then as farce Zizek positively quotes Jean-Pierre Dupay
The catastrophic event is inscribed into the future as destiny, for sure, but also as a contingent accident: it could not have taken place, even if, in futur anterieur, it appears as necessary . . . . if an outstanding event takes place, a catastrophe, for example, it could not not have taken place; nonetheless, insofar as it did not take place, it is not inevitable. It is thus the event’s actualization-the fact that it takes place which retroactively creates its necessity (p.150).
For Zizek this accedes to a Hegelian logic that he also associates with Badiou’s thinking of fidelity to the event. To me this thinking is much closer to the stoic concept of fate than the Hegelian picture that Zizek produces. Nonetheless, this is how we are supposed to approach the problem of impending ecological collapse: we must inscribe it as a contingency that becomes necessary by its happening so that we can treat it as if it were necessary (ie. “destiny”) so as to undo it. This partakes of the same logic as the Sarah Connors character in Terminator 2 as she endlessly repeats that there is “no future but the one we make” (perhaps a good slogan for postnihilist praxis). Yet even Zizek’s move here of rendering ecocide necessary so as to denaturalise that necessity. From an imagined standpoint after the catastrophe we should look back and point out what we did wrong, how we could have avoided all this awful madness. This misses the point because that is precisely the position we are in. This is not an imaginary operation. We really do have to appropriate the position of the survivor (as opposed to the survivalist). Yet as survivors, we shouldn’t be looking for ways to prevent the catastrophe but to mitigate it; we shouldn’t be looking for means of preventing the destruction but of building already from the ruins about us. The positing of the catastrophe into any kind of futurity is already a disavowal of the catastrophic real. Indeed, this might well be part of the development of a distinctly postnihilist ethics: like the survivors we are, shifting the terms of our thought from survival to rebuilding. Yet this rebuilding is not a question of a return to the pre-catastrophic world, and this is precisely where the importance of the post-apocalyptic comes into play.
As survivors of the apocalypse we can begin to think in a way analogous to that which Paul Virilio has dubbed ‘revelatory’.
Ancient and modern societies were revolutionary and brought into being revolutionaries. But I am a revelatory. For what is revealed is forces itself above what is past and forces itself upon our situation as a revelation, as in the case of the integral accident and finitude. Revelatory thought is a new kind of thought (Virilio Now, p.39).
In this distinction, the revolutionaries would belong to those who await a future that has been cancelled but who don’t realise that the death of the future is also its liberation. The radical openness that this implies is lost on the “revolutionaries” who we might better think of as simply those who have seen but refuse to bear witness. They are those who remain in the 20th century, arguing over a world that has died. For this reason only the revelatory can be the authentic revolutionary because it is the revelatory mode of thinking that is capable of beginning from the ruined world. Fukushima, a specific catastrophic moment, has already happened: those who refuse to bear witness to it (or those for whom the distribution of the tele-sensible forecloses the ability to bear witness to it) are those stuck waiting for the apocalypse.
Being post-apocalyptic means holding fidelity to the nihilism of the world in an attempt to move beyond it: it is precisely the world that is at an end and which must be assembled again, from scratch, as we survive. Fukushima has already happened; our job is not to wait for the apocalypse but to realise that the apocalyptic is a dimension that belongs to the unfolding of the catastrophe. To be post-apocalyptic, to survive the catastrophic, means, perversely, to hold fidelity to what has already happened.
Much is made of the prevalence of catastrophe and apocalypse in contemporary culture. “It is easier to imagine the end of the world…” except that it is precisely not. A world has ended and we can’t imagine it. This is is the point of Virilio’s references to the revelatory. A revelation is unbidden and necessary, it does not require an imaginative effort or a labour of thought, except after the fact. What daunts us is not that we can’t imagine the end of capitalism and what comes next but that of being held tightly to the problem of imagination, of being unwilling to step beyond it. The end of the world has become comedy but instead of laughing the left remains entranced with the catastrophe, refusing to occupy the post-apocalyptic space that it opens up. Doubtless this is because such a space is expansive and would require going beyond merely discussing representations of the end but actively working from the premise of such an end: the revelation that capitalism is over.
To me, this resonates with the anarchist commitment to ‘building a new world in the shell of the old’ where we recognise that the old world is a dead world, and the new world can only be built from its ruins. This implies the radical recomposition of everything existing- just as the broken hull of a boat may become a life raft and may in term become part of a new infrastructure. Without thinking that capitalism, the state and other apparatuses of power will disappear, it is crucial now to have done with the work of tearing down and to start build.

Gotta do this page because, BTS...
During this recent Mischief journey, BTS has captured my respect and awe.
They are so fun, good, crazy, creative, and wickedly talented.
Each and altogether. Their body of work and the time they've been around alone would demand respect...
Considered 3rd gen KPop, with well over 200...tunes First in lots of areas. First in avid fans...
BTS, intent on global awareness, and succeeding.
I am over the moon here, spring 2021.
(After BTS on MTV Unplugged.)
And BTS put me there...
Fix You by Coldplay. A fav song.
BTS in a slow and harmony filled cover.
BTS offers up so many things to be thankful for...
Since they're sitting on stools in the vid, from left
Jimin, Jungkook, Suga, Taehyung (V), J-Hope, Jin, RM
(They are usually moving around. A lot.)
The original is good. And it has some good covers. Now BTS...
It took me a while to sink into the Bangtan Boys...
I had seen them on a talk show or two, watched a few of their who-are-we videos on Youtube, around the time I was beginning KDramas and pursuing KPop music videos of Big Bang, Exo and others (see pg 2 if you want)
I call those vids Compilations. They are snippets of action, music - can be history, top dancer, funniest moments, group dynamics...
And a few of BTS songs made it onto my Youtube random mixes that I listened to a lot on my errands and while busy with projects. Nice.
But I was pursuing edgy wild stuff, like Exo's Lotto and Big Bang's Monster, GDragon's Crooked. Drawn by the pace, the moves, the crazy styles, the great music. Mesmerized.
Focused, committed, all out energy. In charge.
I was looking for enough headbanging energy to crowd out some inner pain. And BTS seemed to have a light touch, too sunny for my mood.
One day I heard, and stopped to watch BTS's Fire. Crazy! Crazy enough...
Reminded me of that stage of life where lighting things on fire is an obsession. Excited!
Like boys, thrilled with being cause, fire their effect...
Fierce enough. Watch it again. Put it on a playlist.
BTS moving in. Not always sunny.
The action I seem to be after, as a fangirl, is brilliant, touching, efficient, creative.
And gives me a good driving beat, good visuals. And crescendos.
In my eyes. From my perspective.
Music action that is perfect for a situation. My situation.
One night, hunting for gems, I discovered Taehyung.
I had watched a comparison vid, with Taehyung of BTS and Taeyong of NCT. Hmmm both good.
And then a vid came up in my Search, about Taehyung's deep voice, I clicked on it. I like deep voices...
It wasn't a music video tho, just Taehyung talking in different situations. And his voice and demeanor were a slow vibe.
His responses were low-key-delivered but bright as fxxk.
Intrigued, I pursued. I wanted to hear him sing. And found two solo MV's...
Everything in me slooooowed right down. Down....
For months my cells had been firing all over.
All day, every day. And the music I was choosing, playlisting, was crazed and stimulating enough to divert, and cut off at the pass, the hissing responses I was feeling toward my everyday interactions.
My fxxk off vibe wired, the music expressing it.
And then one night...Sweet Night (see Mischief pg 1, 1st vid)
and Winter Bear, my Bose speaker beside my head.
On hour long loops.
An evening of uninterrupted, unending time. Exhale....
I lay across my bed, my Bose speaker beside my head.. Unwinding, unraveling.
The words Im in love drifted on my brain waves.
Thanks Tae. Love you.
Now, no matter what BTS I'm listening to, watching, I scan to find Taehyung. Listen for his breath voice.
Ground myself. North star.
And now that I've watched so many of their vids, all these BTS guys have a grounding vibe. Good intentions under every hot move. That's impressive. Brilliant. I'm a fan.
Taehyung, known as V, introduces himself, "I'm a good boy." Yep.
You guys heard of FMV's? All sides of Tae. Later...not ready to share.
His voice duality is not his only quality.
(Okay, Tae page started! Taehyung too good not to share. There is a buzz around Tae. Fascinating!)
Let's find some good BTS MV's... So many!
Okay, which to choose.
Here are two BTS songs that were on MTV Unplugged.
Both are so nice, melodic, full of harmonies and fun, and would have been on my not-right-now-I'm- breaking-things list.
However, they've made it onto a top 20 playlist and I'll stop to watch.
(My Top 20 playlist has close to 100 MV's so far.)
One of BTS's strong directions, from what I can see, is their choice to show all sides of themselves.
And there are lots of vids-MV's and compilations-showing their vulnerabilities and everyday lives.
They really want to reach out and connect...
And connect they do. Their fans are called "Army", and they have impact.
I'm a fan
Life Goes On is another tune I have on a loop.
It's a smooth out vibe and good for working on projects...
This one was performed at the Grammy's. It's their first completely English lyric song and has taken over world wide. Dynamite. Fun. They were excited! Army too!
And for more action and intensity...
These guys can dance.
This, Danger, about those crazy relationship feelings...
And BTS being all hip hop fiery...
In my mood I never would have stopped on this, One Day. But BTS puts work and talent into every song/performance... I stop to watch. Love it.
See the white sweaters? lol
Gotta talk about Rap Monster, soon. RM is the BTS leader. Started in rap, speaks English, represents BTS, was the first. He writes a lot of the songs, the parts, the choreography. Creative, a word guy. Cool.
He looks after all the guys. And has vision.
A steady genius. IMHO
The guy you see first here. And rapping at 2:15...
If you don't know...
That'll do for now.... Got that army fangirling out of my system to switch back to more sequence.
Held back some of favs for another day, another page of Mischief.
Watching the Grammy's this Sunday.
Hey! Grammy's done now. Boy, was Army pissed that their boys lost and performed last, holding Army "hostage"...
(Interesting) Mostly tho, the fans are nothing but loving, supportive. And BTS grateful...
Okayyyy. Ready for more. These two MV's attracted a little attention for content, in this time of Me Too.
And with BTS's general good guy vibe. (They promised they would behave...better.)
In my mood, these would barely be boundary breaking. We like to know these guys have...feelings.
Speaking for myself.
War of Hormone! Loved it when I ran across this one. I'm including the lyrics on purpose (although the translation may be a little questionable), just to get the drift. Go guys...
My Where's Waldo game. Can we spot Taehyung? I love how each guy has his own wild following. Fans who stay up at night immersed in their bias. Twitter is full of pages devoted to just one...
Each worthy. Together, synergy.
And lots of gg. I'm happy. Distracted.
Hey, to get Boy in Luv, maybe you'd have to watch a couple of KDramas in a high school setting (like the Inheritors).
Two moves here common in KDramas, the push against a wall, or lockers here. And the wrist grab.
In the mood to enjoy the story, not judge it. (Ok, I'm judging it as mood elevating.) And RM at 2:40, dragging chairs. Why do I like that few seconds so much.
Energy of young love, eh?
Intense! And guys give flowers... Sweet.
Let's cap this page for now with a couple of photos of Taehyung, lullaby guy...
(I've added more now...keep going.)
Hey, the songwriter of the lull ya to sleep solos...shhhh
Watched Hwarang, a period piece drama with this talent in it. Just slow vibes his way thru the story. Sweet.
Whuu? with breath.
Fangirl smitten, the more I see and hear,
Still, fell in luv the first night.
I now respond, instant deep cell relaxation thruout my body, when I hear the click of that camera, as Winter Bear comes on, like a hypnosis trigger.
Here's Tae, triggering.
I must. It gets me up... Any time of the day. Airplane Pt 2 And 2 versions.
The official vid. Lots of flavour....
This one is a live performance. Mischievous
They do many good versions of this! So many versions of so many of their songs.
Official vids, vids of dance practices, of the different concerts (different choreography, outfits, perfomance settings), of their day to day lives, of quiz shows, interviews, TV appearances, awards shows, photoshoots, Twitter posts, Weverse, fan signings. When do these guys sleep. (They do tho. There's vids of them sleeping.)
They are involved in their own song writing, choreography, production. They engage in solo projects, Some of them are in KDrama movies and TV series. They attend online universities. They contribute to charities, begin initiatives like Love Yourself, record holiday messages. Probably saving kitties right now, between dance practices...
They need the support of the fans, keep them full so they don't deflate from energy output.
Send some breath their way.
I'm turning in. Just feel like I've been super busy, imagining everything they do.
Maybe a little Sweet Night to unwind.
Gotta add the two 2021 summer songs, happening now.
Butter still wild on Twitter. Fan sites go crazy on Twitter when anything new comes out. And these tunes and their stellar promotion provided endless opportunities for photos, gifs, fan edits. Some brilliant.
Just out. Permission to Dance. Just fun. Looks like a celebration, with everything freeing up in some parts of the globe. Covid 19 relief, possible concerts on the horizon. Happy BTS. Toss the masks. Move...
Bring joy, BTS human style...
They are all wicked talents...
Da guys. The more I watch and listen, to these guys and about these guys, the more impressed I am by their talent, the creativity of their work, the heart they bring to their music and interactions. With each other, with their fans, with us all. Each and together. Truly.
Do I have a fav? Who's my bias?
How could I choose among this bunch? They are all good looking, good movers, warm... Biases each.
Reasons why each would be a fav.
That's love x7. Big love.
Okay, I'm going to start my page on Taehyung. :) He is irresistable.
He brought me home to the Bangtan Boys.
Most pages here on Meme Dreams are compiled from several different sites I've created over the years. All pulled together here, in various stages.
The most recent page is "Mischief", a journal of mood and music as I make my way through a grief journey. Missing loved ones. Especially G.
I love ya.
I wanna get down...
If the wrong video plays, refresh your page.
In psychology, there are two popular conceptions of happiness: hedonic and eudaimonic.
Hedonic happiness is achieved through experiences of pleasure and enjoyment,
while eudaimonic happiness is achieved through experiences of meaning and purpose.
That's a little simplified :), but a useful distinction.
Not pursuing happiness as in waiting, creating it as in now. |
Victim, Manager, Rebel, Destroyer
Postmodern, Modern, Medieval, and Ancient Typologies of Villainy
In the introduction to his magisterial opus After Virtue, Alasdair Macintyre describes postmodern society as having fallen into a dark age, a post-apocalyptic state. But this is not the apocalypse of Mad Max. The apocalypse has destroyed, not our technology, but our morality: “We possess simulacra of morality, we continue to use many of the key expressions. But we have… lost our comprehension of morality,” he explains. Postmodern society does not know what good is.
Being unable to understand good leaves society unable to understand evil; and so instead society pathologizes it. Evil becomes a psychological state that results from personal trauma, from some crucial moment when the world failed to show someone compassion, empathy, or trust, or left them exposed to the world’s cruelty. Every postmodern villain is a victim. Behind every figure of terror we find a terrorized figure.
Darth Vader appears as a towering tyrant in Star Wars IV. But the prequels reveal that Anakin Skywalker was a victim: enslaved as a child, separated from his mother, forbidden to marry the woman he loved, rejected in his aspirations by the Jedi council, dismembered by his former mentor, and then involuntarily made into a cyborg by his new one.
Hannibal Lechter appears in Silence of the Lambs as the quintessence of villainy, brilliant, cold, manipulative, remorseless. In the sequel Hannibal, we learn that he’s a victim: During World War II, the kind and gentle young Hannibal was forced to eat his sister by cannibal soldiers.
Lord Voldemort appears in Harry Potter & the Sorcerer’s Stone as the most powerful and evil sorcerer in the Wizarding World. But later we learn Tom Riddle was a victim, the product of abandonment by his mother. J.K. Rowling even says “everything would have changed if Merope [his mother] had survived and raised him herself and loved him.”
Kylo Ren enters Star Wars VII as a dark Jedi so powerful that he can halt a blaster bolt in mid-air. But Star Wars VIII reveals Ben Solo was a victim who felt abandoned by his father and betrayed by the paranoia of his mentor, Jake Skywalker.
The Joker, most infamous and vile of all of Batman’s foes, is revealed in his eponymous 2019 movie to have been a victim, too. Arthur Fleck is a mentally ill bastard rejected by his birth-father and humiliated by his coworkers.
Postmodern culture stops at nothing in its relentless transformation of villain into victim. Cruella de Vil is the most recent example. She appears in One Hundred and One Dalmations as a wealthy socialite whose life goal is to murder puppies so she can wear their skins. But the 2021 movie Cruella reveals that she, too, is a victim: Her birth-mother abandoned her and her adopted mother was killed by a pack of vicious dalmations. (I’m not making this up.)
The postmodern villain, then, is just a moral cripple. Psychological trauma has ruined the villain’s ethical system just as spinal trauma might ruin a person’s nervous system. We are meant to feel bad that they do bad. It’s not their fault.
That every postmodern villain is a victim should not surprise us; it is characteristic of postmodern morality as a whole to make the victim the center of its moral universe. Postmodernism’s heroes are victims too, victims of white supremacy, colonialism, oppression, patriarchy, or other systems of malevolence. The victimized are to be the beneficiaries of social justice in the new progressive world to come.
What distinguishes the virtuous victim from the villainous victim is mostly the cause of their victimization. A virtuous victim is deliberately victimized by a malevolent actor or system of oppression. A villainous victim is accidentally or negligently victimized by a benign or neutral system.
Anakin Skywalker is a villain because the Jedi Council aren’t actually malevolent and don’t mean to harm him. Tom Riddle is a villain in the Wizarding World because wizarding society is largely benevolent. Hannibal Lechter is a villain in the Thomas Harris novels because the people he feasts upon cannot be blamed for what happened to him and his sister. But this distinction is often the only difference between postmodern hero and villain. Both are victims and both can freely employ violence to their own ends - “there are no bad tactics, just bad targets.” Hence postmodern entertainment can easily protagonize the postmodern villain.
The same cannot be said of the modern villain. If the postmodern villain is the accidental victim of a benign system; and the postmodern hero is the oppressed victim of a malign system; then the modern villain is the bureaucratic agent of that malign system.
Bureaucracy is central to modern villainy. Modernism is characterized by the banality of evil. Like Adolf Eichmann as viewed by Hannah Arendt, the modern villian is managerial in his wickedness. It’s nothing personal. “One death is a tragedy, a million deaths is a statistic,” he might say. “I’m sorry you have to die.”
When a modern villain appears in postmodern fiction, he will be an old straight white man, and symbolize the old oppressive order which the hero-victim must overthrow. Often he supervises a younger postmodern villain-as-victim. In Star Wars IV, Darth Vader is supervised by Grand Moff Tarkin. Tarkin is not a victim. He wasn’t dumped in high school by a girl who looks like Carrie Fischer. He didn’t suffer a childhood allergy to Alderaanian shellfish. He just destroys Alderaan because it’s the most efficient way to demonstrate the Death Star’s power against the rebels.
Likewise, Kylo Ren is supervised by Supreme Leader Snoke, and Cruella de Vil learns her wicked ways from Baroness von Hellman. The modern villain may want power, or fame, or money, but whatever he wants, he already has more than enough of it.
Standing in opposition to the modern villain is the medieval villain, who is a rebel against rightful order. The greatest of the medieval villains is, of course, Lucifer, who lead an army of fallen angels in rebellion against God’s righteous rule: “Now war arose in heaven, Michael and his angels fighting against the dragon. And the dragon and his angels fought back.” (Revelations 12:7) The antagonist of The Silmarillion, Morgoth, is another medieval villain, and directly inspired by Lucifer. So is Mordred, the prince who seeks to overthrow his father Arthur in the Arthurian Mythos.
As a rebel fighting against the system, the medieval villain shares some similarity with both the postmodern villain and the postmodern hero. What differentiates the medieval villain from the postmodern villain is that the medieval villain is never a victim. He is, in fact, exceptionally privileged and talented. It is his greatness, not his weakness, that causes him to rebel.
Lucifer was an archangel of the Lord, some claim the most powerful of the Lord’s angels. He waged war because he sought to overturn the natural order in favor of one of his own design, with him at the top.
Morgoth, likewise, was the most powerful of the Valar, and might have wrought beautiful things in Middle-Earth had he done what he ought. But he sought to work against, rather than for, Illuvatar.
Mordred, like Voldemort, was a bastard produced through a magical union. But unlike the victim Voldemort, who was abandoned by his mother and discriminated against by the Wizarding World, Mordred had no excuse. He was raised by his mother and welcomed by his father as a prince. He just wanted to rule Camelot in Arthur’s stead.
Thus the medieval villain’s evil is consciously chosen. No one else is to blame. His evil is prideful. He will not serve. Isaiah 14’s condemnation could apply to every classical villain: “You said in your heart, ‘I will ascend to heaven; above the stars of God I will set my throne on high; I will sit on the mount of assembly in the far reaches of the north; I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will make myself like the Most High.” The medieval villain does not see himself as a victim of his betters; he sees himself as better than his victims.
If the medieval typology of evil is rebellion against the moral order, the most ancient typology of evil is destruction of the natural order. The ancient villain is the monster of the mythological chaoskampf. In the chaoskampf, we see the eternal battle fought between order and chaos, creation and destruction. Creation and order are represented by a hero-god such as Zeus, Marduk, or Ra. Destruction and chaos are represented by a monster such as Typhon, Tiamat, or Apophis. The battle is not for control of the cosmos, but for its existence. The ancient villain seeks to destroy, not to rule.
The contemporary mind, captured by the notion of progress, believes in the possibility of “creative destruction,” of annihilation as a creative act, clearing away dead wood to make room for new growth. This was not the worldview of the ancients. The coupling of creation with order, and chaos with destruction, is embedded deep in their pattern of thought.
It lives on in the words we have inherited from them. The English word “cosmos,” nowadays a synonym for “the universe” or “all of creation” derives from the Ancient Greek κόσμος or (kosmos), meaning “order” or “government.” Likewise, the English word “chaos,” nowadays a synonym for “anarchy” or “disorder,” derives from the Ancient Greek χάος (kháos), meaning “void” or “nothingness.”
To the ancient mind, the statement “there was nothing until God created the universe” is the same statement as “there was chaos until God created order.” To annihilate order is to annihilate creation; chaos is destruction.
We find this doctrine across many ancient societies: The Hellenic kosmos, the Vedic rta, the Buddhist dharma, the Sumerian mes, and the Egyptian maat. Each subject of the Pharaoh was expected to follow his or her maat in order to hold back chaos; to not follow them ran the risk of chaos breaking forth and destroying the cosmos.
In the ancient villain we thus see evil as chaos itself, or its representatives - desiring not to govern in place of the rightful ruler, but for the absence of order altogether. The best contemporary example of an ancient villain is the Joker in the 2008 film The Dark Knight, played by Heath Ledger with terrifying glee. Unlike Joaquin Phoenix’s version of the character, Ledger’s Joker is nobody’s victim. Every time he’s asked for an originary motive, for some trauma that could explain his villainy, the Joker offers a different reason, and we gradually realize there’s no reason at all. Our brief moment of sympathy for the villain-as-victim gives way to horror. Some men really just want to see the world burn.
But Ledger’s Joker is notable because he is so rare. For a medieval villain to be villainous, he must rebel against a rightful order. For an ancient villain to be villainous, he must destroy a rightful order. Both types require that society believe in the existence of rightful order. But that postmodern society does not.
We return to Alasdair Macintyre warning us that we have “lost our comprehension of morality.” There’s no understanding of the good. Postmodern morality is entirely apophatic: It defines itself by what it is against, as anti-racist, anti-capitalist, anti-misogynist, anti-transphobic, and so on. Taken as a whole, it is antinomian. It stands against the entire moral order that preceded it. As such, it has no place for villains who threaten the moral order.
Rather, characters who threaten the current order are postmodernism’s protagonists. Saul Alinsky dedicates Rules for Radical to “the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom — Lucifer.” The hero is revealed as the incarnation of the medieval villain! Postmodern entertainment is defined by its literal sympathy for the devil.
Helen Killer is a postmodern villain-as-victim. Helen Song is a blind, deaf, and mute student at the California School for the Blind; her superpowers manifest when she defends herself from a would-be rapist intent on taking advantage of disability, accidentally killing her assailant. The internet turns her into a meme, “Helen Killer,” and even the US government treats her like a freak. We can empathize with Helen even though she’s on the wrong team.
Reynard the Fox is a modern villain. An internet mogul with the ability to telepathically manipulate machines, his villainy is purely bureaucratic. He might digitally erase your bank account, but his taste in wine is impeccable. The occasional murder is just the cost of doing business.
Maximum Leader is a medieval villain. Possessed of a brilliant intellect and inexorable will to power, he has ascended to become the mightiest being in the world. He aspires to overturn the international order and establish a nation of ascendants under his own rule. No one has victimized Maximum Leader. No one could victimize him. He is evil by his own choice. He would argue he is beyond good and evil.
Manticore is an ancient villain. His motivation is to destroy, and he takes pleasure in it. His transformation into a monster is neither a victimization or a tragedy; it is simply an actualization of his true nature. Befitting an ancient villain, the first part of Ascendant: Star-Spangled Squadron (which you can read here) pits Manticore in a classic chaoskampf against a culture hero defending civilization from destruction, a paragon of order against chaos. American Eagle is Zeus, father of heaven, symbolized by an eagle, and striking from on high against the Titan that threatens creation. |

Outlander by Diana Gabaldon (1991)
TBR Pile Challenge. I had my choice of books and picked Outlander because I'm so intrigued by the show but had an idea that I might like the book so I wanted to try it first before watching.
Although I've known about this series for years, I had no idea it involved time travel at all. If you don't know the premise, it begins in 1945 when Claire and her husband, newly married before the war, travel to Scotland for a very belated honeymoon. While there, Claire walks through a mysterious ring of stones and is transported to 1743, beginning a series of adventures that span 8 books so far.
She arrives in the midst of a battle, which she first mistakes for a reenactment of some sort. Next thing she knows, she's a "guest" (more like a prisoner) at a castle, with everyone wanting to know where she came from and not believing her. They think she's a spy, and eventually a witch, and although all she wants is to get back to her own time, it's impossible to get away with everyone watching her. I don't think it's too much of a spoiler to say that she's forced into a marriage for her own protection, and it turns into a genuine romance.
This was a very long book. My edition was around 630 pages, but it read really slowly. It wasn't boring or hard to get through, just slow-moving. And I'm not sure why because it was missing a lot of the introspection I was expecting. Claire spent very little time pining away after her old life with it's cars and flush toilets, and she barely struggled at all to figure out how to live life in 1743. She seemed to fit in easily once she got some appropriate clothing. I would think if I were in that position I'd be bumbling about trying to figure out how to do basic daily tasks, while constantly panicking about the loss of my old life and comparing the two. It seemed like most days she just went about her business with barely a thought about how much she missed her husband or anything else.
So that was a bit strange, but still I mostly liked reading it. Oh, Claire could be a bit stupid, refusing to listen to other people who knew more than she did about living in that time period, but I liked her well enough. Jamie, her sudden husband, took a bit of getting used to but seemed like a decent guy and I liked how their relationship unfolded. Claire also made acquaintance with an interesting woman named Geilie who had some secrets of her own, as it turned out.
There was a great conversation at one point in which Claire has confided in a clergyman and asks for advice regarding her potential to change the future. He responds to her with something I've been thinking about recently after - and I hate to admit this - I saw it in a meme. I don't remember the meme exactly, but it said that when we think about time travel we always worry about how the tiniest action could affect the future in major ways, but we don't think about how in regular life our small actions can also affect the future. The future is the future, whether we've been there already or not. So the clergyman tells Claire basically the same thing, that everybody's actions affect the future and she shouldn't overthink things.
I went into this with the intention of just reading the one book, and I don't know that I loved it enough to read more, but also I'm a bit intrigued. I read the descriptions on Goodreads of the next two books and they sound kind of interesting, but also I'm confused about how the timeline fits together (although there's time travel, so.) At any rate, it was a pretty engrossing and enjoyable book. |
If you run a business, have a website, or use social media at all – so, in other words, just about everyone – you probably have to work with images from time to time. And you don’t have to be trained in Photoshop to be able to make some basic touch-ups and corrections to your photos. Free photo-editing tools have come a long way in the past few years, and today we’d like to show you how to use Photoscape, one of the most popular of these programs.
Let me say right off the bat that if you have a lot of previous photo-editing experience, or if you are looking for a free version of Photoshop, this is not it. Photoscape does not support layers, meaning you can’t selectively edit just one part of your photo such as an object or the background. For a more robust program with features that will appeal to graphic designers, we’ve heard good things about GIMP – though I haven’t tried it personally.
Photoscape does, however, have plenty of useful features that you can use to take your images from mediocre to eye-catching, even if you are a beginner. Let’s take a look at some of the ways you can use this program.
How to Use Photoscape: Getting Started
One note of caution: Be sure to download Photoscape from the original publisher’s site (photoscape.org), rather than a third party site, which can sometimes install malware on your computer along with the program you’re trying to download. (I learned this the hard way.)
From your start screen, you’ll see a “feature wheel” showing all of the various tools available. We’ll start with the editor, since this is where you’ll be spending most of your time.
Basic Photo Editing
Once you open the Editor tool, simply navigate to the photo you wish to edit using the sidebar. The Home tab at the bottom hosts your basic editing functions. From here you can adjust color and brightness, apply filters, or change your photo to sepia or grayscale. You can also utilize simple one-click corrections like Auto Contrast and Auto Level.
Use the Object tab to add text, symbols, images or shapes to your photo. The Crop tab has handy features like a one-click option to “Save cropped area” as well as the ability to crop a round image.
Finally, the Tools tab has your basic photo-fixing functions such as red eye correction, the clone stamp (copy one part of the image and “stamp” it onto another part), and the color picker.
From the “feature wheel” on the start page, or along the top of the screen when you have the program open, you can click around to the other features offered in Photoscape. Here’s a quick rundown of what they do:
Viewer – Just a basic photo viewer. From here you can play a slide show, delete images, and view exif data for any of your photos.
Batch Editor – This tool is helpful for when you need to make the same adjustment to a large group of images. Click the “Add” button to add multiple photos to the editor, then you can resize, rotate, and add filters and frames. Click “Convert All,” choose the destination folder for your edited photos, and your edits will be applied to all the photos you selected.
Page – Choose one of the many templates and create a photo collage.
Combine – Put together two or more images in an up-and-down, side-to-side, or checkerboard format. This can be convenient for putting together multiple screenshots (for example, if you want to show a more complete picture of a webpage in a blog post or presentation).
Print – Manage your print setup from right within Photoscape, with options for the size and orientation of images, how many per page, and DPI.
Animated GIF – Create your own meme-worthy moving image by adding two or more photos, which the program will automatically turn into an quick mini slideshow.

Sho Madjozi (real name Maya Christinah Xichavo Wegerif) was born on 9th May 1992 in Shelly Village, Elim, Limpopo. South African by nationality, she is a well-renowned singer, songwriter, actress, and poet.
This talented personality was born to parents Rosemary Phaweni and Marc Wegerif. She was mainly brought up by her mother after her parents divorced while she was extremely young.
The first-ever South African female to win a BET Award, Madjozi, tends to incorporate the Tsonga culture through her music.
Sho Madjozi gained incredible fame following her song titled ‘John Cena’
Madjozi dropped her new track John Cena on 15th August 2018 which immediately went viral. The song based on the famous wrestler John Cena instantly hit the #1 trending spot on Youtube.
Impressively, the South African rapper received an appreciation from the famous music star Missy Elliott.
Sho revealed the reason she wrote the song about the WWE legend was his former career as a rapper and his persona as the “coolest wrestler.”
Madjozi’s most significant recognition, meanwhile, came after the wrestler turned actor, Cena, shared her picture on Instagram, which displayed the rapper on the cover of Successful Woman.

Later, Cena shared her picture on his Instagram once again. This time more as a meme as he attached Madjozi’s face with WWE superstar Stone Cold Steve Austin’s body. The former WWE champion titled the picture ‘Stone Cold Sho Madjozi.’

The song, meanwhile, was released on the music platform Colors Studios which helped her gain millions of worldwide fans in an instant.
Madjozi dragged her ex-boyfriend during an award acceptance speech
During the prestigious South African Music Awards back in June 2019, Sho Madjozi had the internet talking after she won the Female Artist of The Year.
During the acceptance speech, the rapper revealed she was unprepared for her speech and, in fact, shocked by her victory. Sho quickly moved on and talked about how she would sleep at PH’s studio while she was recording her album.
Sho Madjozi was surprised by her victory at SAMA 25.
The singer then expressed she was “going through a crazy heartbreak at the time.” She dragged her ex-boyfriend as she said, “From my now ex who’s probably regretting [it]…actually there’s a song on my album I would like to dedicate to him. It’s track two on Limpopo Champions League, it’s called Idhom. And to just top it off I think I’ll drop the music video for it at midnight today.”
Sho kept her promise and dropped the music video. Meanwhile, fans were curious about who her ex-boyfriend was who got roasted on national television.
Sho Madjozi is determined to end marginalization in Africa

The Wakanda Forever singer often encourages others to remain true to their culture. Born to Swedish father and South African mother, she traveled to several parts of the African continent with her dad.
Getting close to various cultures, she learned to embrace them all. The singer said, “There was this sense of South Africa being quite isolated from the rest of the continent, and I saw myself more as an African than just a South African.”
Meanwhile, this enthusiastic music personality carries a lot of love for African languages while she drives herself to become a global sensation. |
On JUN 13, 2019 Adam Bahret presented “Use Case 7”
below a link to the recorded video of the webinar.
“Use Case 7” is a new meme being introduced. Use Case 7 is the way a customer may use your product in a manner that is way beyond anything you expect. Foreseeable only under the influence of a mind altering additive. Yet these cases tend to show themselves and need to be in scope to ensure adequate margins of safety and performance. Tune in to be a part of this unique experiential perspective.

Knowing that things can blow out of proportion and go viral on the Internet, many personalities have remained cautious about what they say or do in public. However, others have made mistakes, and have since then experienced the wrath of online keyboard warriors.
Take Rick Hoffman, for instance. The Suits actor reportedly had a meltdown at a nightclub outside Toronto, Canada, where he just started yelling at people. Whether it’s true or not, he does make some good merchandise. Remember when Viral Telecast wrote about the Louis Litt Calendar?
The past few years have seen many controversies caused by Internet personalities. Here are some of the most notable ones:
1. PewDiePie (Felix Kjellberg)
Swedish YouTuber Felix Kjellberg, AKA PewDiePie, holds the unbeaten record for the most subscribed YouTube channel. But in January 2017, the content creator began receiving criticism for his choice of words in his videos.
A few days later, PewDiePie got more flak for uploading a video of himself using the website Fiverr, which allows people to sell all kinds of services for just $5.
As a joke, PewDiePie paid two people through the website to hold up an offensive sign. After that upload, he received tons of bad publicity, both from YouTube users and from various media outlets, including the Wall Street Journal.
2. Danielle Bregoli
Danielle Bregoli became a viral sensation after she appeared in Dr. Phil. On the show, she rudely responded to the audience’s laughter with “Cash me outside, How bout dat!” which instantly became a popular meme.
Ironically, her bad behavior seemed to pay off because she now has a music career under the rapper name, Bhad Barbie. Billboard noted that one of Bregoli’s singles reached the Billboard Top 100, and was ranked at No. 68. Despite the hate-fueled fame, it’s safe to say the teen does have talent.
3. Jake Paul
Social media star Jake Paul has done eyebrow-raising acts since he rose to online stardom. One example is when he released the music video for “It’s Everyday Bro”, which is supposedly dedicated to his haters.
You can also count the very public breakup he had with fellow star Alissa Violet when he uploaded a video (now deleted) confessing to kicking her out of his house for alleged cheating.
Paul drew more media attention when his neighbors complained about all his ruckus. He pulls off crazy stunts for his viewers’ entertainment, such as setting a ton of furniture on fire in his empty swimming pool.
When a KTLA 5 News reporter visited Paul’s home for an interview, the prankster brushed him off and made fun of his shoes on live TV.
4. Logan Paul
Jake Paul’s older brother also has his own issues. Logan Paul’s videos feature a similar theme, in that he brags, pranks, and pulls off stunts.
During a recent vacation to Japan, Logan Paul filmed himself and his crew venturing into the Aokigahara Forest, which is an infamous spot.
Without going into the matter in too much detail, it certainly didn’t do his career any good. After a huge wave of criticism, YouTube removed Logan Paul as a preferred ad partner.
5. Tony G (Antanas Guoga)
Tony G is probably one of the most hated players in the world of poker, due to his obnoxious habit of ridiculing his opponents.
One notable incident was when he eliminated Russian player Ralph Perry in the 2006 Intercontinental Poker Championship. While Perry was deciding how to play his hand, Tony G taunted him, prompting the announcer to comment, “Tony G could single-handily reignite the Cold War.”
Tony G’s actions have come back to bite him on some occasions, particularly when he faced off against Jennifer Tilly. PartyPoker reported that Tilly won a heads-up against Tony G, when the latter moved all-in with $66,000 and Tilly called him. Afterward, Tilly nonchalantly dismissed his taunting and then continued to school him. In response, the brash Tony G chuckled and drank his coffee.
6. US President Donald Trump
It’s hard to count how many absurd tweets the current POTUS has posted since he was elected. Whether he is doing it on purpose to distract people from other issues or just for the fun of it, nobody can say.
On a (slightly) brighter note, at least some of them became the butt of memes. Would you like some “covfefe”, perhaps? |
Just like last time.
But a couple of new rules:
Drink when Donald Trump says:
- Believe Me
- Excuse Me
- Bigly (or Big League)
Drink when Hillary Clinton says:
- Middle Class
- Fair Share
Drink when either say:
Nothing else really needs to be said, innit? It’s just this giant douche and the turd sandwich debating. Again. Nothing too exiting, right? But. A QUICK reminder. I don’t have a dog in this race anymore. At all. I’m NOT voting for either of these two. I’m just watching this debate for sport. Literally. So. Without further ado…
- Everyone’s making a big deal out of the no handshake, calling the moment awekward. Wy? It’s not THAT big of a deal, is it?
- The fuck? The first question? The last debate could have been rated TV-MA? Jesus Christ. If that were REMOTELY true? America has become WAY too piussified. Thanks, safespacers!
- “Boy and girl, as well as every adult.” WTF Hillary? Dont you know it’s 2016?! Gender is no longer binary and shiitt!
- There was like six togetheres there in about 2 sentences, thanks Hilldawg. (6)
- Did Truymp just admt he’s a politician? DUN DUN DUNNNNN?!
- My take on the whole, “Trump sexually assulted women” thing? I just don’t care. Everyone on the right knew that this stuff was out there. And they didn’t care and voted for him anways. It’s just… dumb. Generally speaking, his statement on it – “We’ve got ISIS and problems, just ignore it,” is lame. But basically true. I don’t know.
- Second time Hillary’s quote Tocqueville. I’m pretty sure she’s just listening to Glenn Beck’s radio show now. (14)
- So. Rabbatz is going to be one of those “moderators” huh? (15)
- Jesus Christ. Rabbatz litterally just chastized the audience for applauding for Trump and didn’t give two shits about the applause for Clinton 30 sexonds later.
- Hoily shit. Trump DAMN NEAR won my vote with his comeback. If he wasn’t a lying, conniving asshole. He probably would have won my vote. “If I’m president, I’m going to instruct my attorney general to lok into your situation,” “You oughta be ashamed of yourself.” All that. Great counter-punching. (16)
- I’m pretty sure neither of these people know how the internet works. At all. Clinton had that, “cloth” gaff a while ago. Trump keeps refering to it as “the cyber.” And now apparently, emails are acid washed? Emails aren’t jeans worn by college students in the 1960’s Don.
- “Because you’d be in jail.” Damn dude.
- Although, it would be awesome if they talked policy. You know.
- Now Trump’s just being a douche about the emails.
- MC Donald. It’s kinda awesome.
- Jesus. I feel like Randy Marsh.
- And. Once again. Government’s going to interfere with private health care industry. Thanks, Hillary. And Trump.
- The fuck? Women were charged more than men for health insurance? Is this real life? (17)
- Um. Don. You’ve been advocating for single payer this whole time.
- So far, even Anderson Cooper’s being a douche. And he’s usually pretty awesome.
- Is “Islamophobia” on the rise? Really?
- Don. Hillary Clinton hjas called it Radical Islamic terror. She actually will “say the name.”
- “If I were President Captain Kahn would be alive today.” Jesus Christ, Don. The ughs. Man. The ughs. Evben Hillary Clinton actually showed human emotion after that. Rather than her robot emoton. (19)
- The “Muslim ban” is totally stupid. All of it is dumb. Obviously. But HIllary’s just pulling shit out of her ass when she says, “What are we going to do? Give them religious tests?!” (22)
- “:At a recortd clip?” Huh?
- Rabbatz atually asks Hillary about being Two-Faced? Wow.
- Russia and Wikileaks are pretty obviously aligned. Congrats, Clinton. You said the obvious. (26)
- Something. (29)
- Trump just said Russia. I believe 10 times. In about 2-3 sentences. But the actual comment was, “She doesn’t know if Russia is doing the hacking.”
- Then he goes into a rant about taxes. Just. Sigh. Still. (43)
- OK. Don starts to go into a pretty awesome aregument about how she didn’t change the tax code when she was a senator because of her friends’ donorship. Firstly, Donald was one of her donors back then. Secondly. He confuses the argument by switching to, “you didn’t change the tax code because they gave you money to run ads against Donald Trump.” And. Like…
- And. Somehow. Trump brings China into the mix about American Taxes. Good job. (52)
- Once again. Hillary’s response is just…
- And. Even Anderson Cooper’s a douche. Attacking Trump about taxes and stuffs. (59)
- OK. OK. OK. Trump. At the beginning of this fucking debate. Said. About women, rape, things, Bill Clinton. “It’s all action, no talk.” basically. Now he’s chastizing Hillary for being all talk and no action about getting things done. Well. At least Republicans have learned the awesomeness of having it both ways the way Democrats have over the years. (61)
- “Well, here we go again.” Hillary Clinton is channeling Reagan? Huh? IS THIS REAL LIFE?!
- Trump is still an asshole interruptor person thing.
- Something else? (64)
- I was about to critiicize Hillary about the “reset button.” But she actually addressed it decently. BNot well. Not good. But decently. (77)
- RANDOM SIDENOTE: I am basically this person at this point.
- Trump. He just said a lot of words. Some were agreeable. Like. Iran deal nonsense. But he still dodges his own Russia connection. Because. Obviously. (85)
- Um. Don. There’s plenty of reasons to warn PEOPLE about upcoming bombing raids. Etc. This is not a practive of the Obama administration. This is the practice of America. Truman dropped hiundreds of thousands of leaflets before the A-boms were droppped on Japan. It’s not stupidity. It’s humanity. (91)
- Rabbatzis still being a cunt. And that’s not sexism. That’s factism.
- Then. Trump mentions Patton. And…
- Donald’s pacing is pretty noticable. Maybe he should have taken a seat? I mean. I get the whole, “I can stand for this 90 minute debate, and she can’t’ argument, thing. But. His pacing is pretty ridicullus. At this point. (92)
- Trump complains about time. Because. Reasons. (93)
- Hillary’s all about children. Obviously. And bullying. And safe spaces. Right?
- Hey. At least Anderson Cooper finally insterted his douchiness towards Clinton for once.
- Something more? I don’t know.
- Hillary Clinton rtespects the second ammendment? Then she just spouts off nonsense about “gun show” and “online” loppholes. Obviously.
- And then.
- This happened.
- RANDOMISH SIDENOTE: It’s pretty fucking sad. Ken Bone’s picture there was pretty much the easiest of all of the images I’ve found during this rambling. Just.
- Oh Jesus. This dude asks an energy question? OK. I suppose the meme makes sense then. Kinda. I mean. He’s kinda asking on behalf of like, “coal miners” and such. And that… KINDA makes sense. But like. I don’t know. Whatever. He also wants tem both to be environmentally friendly. That’s the part that makes sense. Whatever.
- “EEEEpa! EEEEEpa!” Something abiout Green Lantern? I think? The Simpsons Movie joke here.
- And. A joe about “Minors/miners.” (94)
- “It will pay off our tremendous budget defecits, which are tremendous.” -Donald J. Trump. (96)
- Hillary’s plugging HilklaryClinton.com like it’s the primary. I’m just sayin. (97)\
- Rabbatz: Mr. Trump would you like to answer that question?
Hillary:Well, I-I certainly will.
- “This is not an ordinary election.” -HRC. But like. Isn’t this THE MOST IMPORTANT ELECGTION OF OUR LIFETIME?~! AGAIN?!
- “She doesn’t give up. She’s a fighter.” Sayas Trump. But. Like. I tought uyou’ve been saying, “she doesn’t have the stamina/. She’s not healthy. (Esentially) She will give up!” on the campaign trail? Whatever.
And then. That’s pretty much how it ends.
If I’m a ranom, Joe Blow, person, thing watching tonight: Trump won this debate.
If I’m a sane, “Let’s not be a total asshole, right?” thinking person: Clinton won this debate.
If I’m me. And I’m semi-knowledgable about this election and I’m looking for the fireworks for sport: Trump won the debate.
So. That’s that. Innit? |

The US Coast Guard rescued a Navy pilot whose jet crashed in the Atlantic Ocean off the Florida Keys.
Lt. Russ Chilcoat said in a news release the pilot ejected and was rescued in early August with no apparent injuries. The crash happened some 20 miles (32 kilometers) southeast of Key West. The pilot, whose name wasn’t released, was the only person on board.

Chilcoat says parts of the F-5N were recovered but the rest is under about 3,000 feet (900 meters) of water. He says the Navy has no immediate plans to recover the aircraft.
The pilot is attached to Fighter Composite Squadron 111, the “Sun Downers,” based at Naval Air Station Key West. Officials say the jet was conducting training operations and the cause of the crash wasn’t immediately known.
The dapper young Hungarian revolutionary named József Tibor Fejes holding a captured AK-47 in what is believed to be the first widely distributed photo of the weapon. (Public domain photo.)
Sixty years ago the weapon that became a symbol of Cold War guerrillas and current day insurgents made its debut in a most unlikely way.
The AK-47, arguably the most widely used assault rifle in the world, first appeared in the hands of both Communist troops and Hungarian revolutionaries during the 1956 Hungarian Revolution. The revolution against the nation’s communist government began on October 23 but was ruthlessly crushed by Hungarian secret police and Soviet troops by Nov. 10.
In particular, one photo from the revolution gained worldwide attention – and it is arguably the first time the Kalashnikov entered the public consciousness.
C.J. Chivers, former Marine Corps infantry captain and Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist, wrote in his book The Gun that nobody knows which Hungarian revolutionary first picked up a captured AK-47.
But a LIFE Magazine photographer snapped a picture of József Tibor Fejes – “22-years-old, fresh-faced, sharp-eyed, purposeful, and seemingly unafraid” – whose costume as an insurgent always included a bowler hat. “The Man in the Bowler Hat” was also hefting an AK-47, making Fejes the first known revolutionary carrying what became widely known as a revolutionary’s weapon.
“The AK-47 was destined to become a symbol of resistance fighters almost everywhere, a weapon with innumerable spokesmen,” Chivers wrote. “Fejes had nonchalantly assumed the requisite pose and begun to flesh out this historical role. He did so before Fidel Castro, before Yasir Arafat, before Idi Amin. He was years ahead of the flag of Zimbabwe, which would expropriate the AK-47 as a symbol. He was ahead of Shamil Basayev and Osama bin Laden, who would convert the product of an atheist state into a sign of unsparing jihad. József Tibor Fejes was the first of the world’s Kalashnikov-toting characters, a member of a pantheon’s inaugural class.”
Although the Soviet Union had first publically acknowledged the rifle’s existence in 1949, firearms experts and military intelligence analysts in the West knew little about the weapon.
In fact, it was not until 1956 that the Army’s Technical Intelligence Office issued a classified report about the AK-47 – a report that mistakenly labeled the rifle a submachine gun and led to Pentagon brass dismissing the effectiveness of the weapon.
Eventually, the Soviet Union, the People’s Republic of China, and a host of Soviet satellites and licensees manufactured more than 100 million AK-47s. First encountered by U.S. fighting men during the Vietnam War, the robust construction of the weapon and its reliability soon made believers out of Americans who faced it in the hands of their enemies.
To this day, U.S. soldiers and Marines continue to face adversaries armed with some version of the Kalashnikov.
As for József Tibor Fejes, his fate was sealed. Charged with the execution of a State Security Forces officer by gunning him down in the streets of Budapest, a Hungarian court found Fejes guilty and sentenced him to death.
Despite an appeal, authorities hanged Fejes on April 9, 1959, his punishment for what the court said was an attempt to overthrow the Hungarian people’s republic, the murder of a police officer, and the theft of state property – namely an AK-47 assault rifle.
When Emil Kapaun entered seminary school to become a Catholic priest in 1936, he probably didn’t foresee himself being declared a Servant of Godby the Pope some 80 years later. He also probably didn’t foresee how he would end up there.
Kapaun was called to serve as a U.S. Army chaplain during World War II and he answered that call. As the war ended and the United States entered a conflict in Korea, he stayed in the Army to shepherd his soldiers through their most trying times.
He was with them until the end, but what exactly happened to him wasn’t really known until an entirely new century had turned.
As a new chaplain, Kapaun didn’t make it to World War II until 1945, when he arrived in the China-India-Burma theater of the war. But he didn’t turn around and go home. He crossed thousands of miles in little more than a year to go wherever there were GIs in the theater. He went home in 1946 and briefly left the Army to continue his education.
By 1948, however, he was back in a chaplain’s uniform, spending time at Fort Bliss before shipping off to occupied Japan in 1950. This was the year everything would change. North Korean tanks invaded South Korea that same year, and the war nearly pushed the South and its American allies into the Sea of Japan.
Emil Kapaun was in Korea a month after the Korean War started. Kapaun and his assistant did more than tend to the spiritual needs of the men in their care. They picked up stretchers and became litter bearers during combat as the Battle of the Pusan Perimeter raged around them.
When United Nations forces managed a breakout and Gen. Douglas MacArthur landed a significant western force at Inchon, Capt. Kapaun marched north with the rest of the United Nations. He was there when they crossed the 38th parallel into North Korea, when they captured Pyongyang. He helped rescue the wounded and retrieve the dead and dying.
When Kapaun and the 1st Cavalry came within 50 miles of North Korea’s border with China, the Chinese intervened in the war. His unit was surrounded by 20,000 Chinese soldiers and Kapaun stayed with 800 men who were cut off from the main force, despite pleas for his own escape. Braving the enemy’s unending heavy fire, he rescued 40 of his comrades in arms.
His daring rescues in the face of hostile fire earned Emil Kapaun the Medal of Honor. He would never live to receive the award, however. He and other members of the 3rd Battalion, 8th Cavalry Regiment were captured by the Chinese and marched more than 80 miles to a North Korean prisoner of war camp.
While a prisoner, Kapaun did everything he could to improve the lives of the men held there. As they fought hunger, disease and lice, their chaplain dug latrines for them, stole food and smuggled necessary drugs into the camp. But even he was feeling the harshness of prison camp life and eventually succumbed to malnutrition and pneumonia. His remains were left in a mass grave near the Yalu River, along North Korea’s border with China.
After the armistice that ended the fighting on the Korean Peninsula went into effect, Kapaun’s remains, along with the others interred at the mass grave site were repatriated to the United States. Since his were unidentifiable, they were buried in Hawaii’s National Memorial Cemetery of the Pacific.
In 2018, the Defense POW/MIA Accounting Agency launched the Korean War Disinterment Project, an all-out effort to identify the remains of Korean War remains in a seven-phase plan. On March 4, 2021, Capt. Emil. Kapaun, Medal of Honor recipient and future Catholic saint, was positively identified.

As Christmas approaches and we finish up our holiday shopping, it’s difficult to keep track of all the incredible stories that pop up. Fortunately, WATM is here to do all your heavy lifting, bringing you the big stories you may have missed during the week of December 22.
3. These Ukrainian schoolchildren don’t fear the sounds of war after living through it for more than three years.
The war in eastern Ukraine that has claimed more than 10,000 lives and wounded thousands of others will turn four years old this upcoming April. Small-arms fire and artillery shelling have, unfortunately, become white noise for inhabitants of the cities along the front lines, Avdiivka and Marinka.
The constant bombardment has caused many locals in the area to become desensitized to their own well-being.
“[The] children don’t care about their safety anymore,” a school principal states.
The school’s windows are boarded up with sandbags, and the frequent bombings have become a part of their everyday lives.
2. Putin says ex-Soviet countries threatened by militants.
Russian President Vladimir Putin said that former Soviet countries were being threatened by militants using the Middle East and Central Asia as a springboard for expansion.
Alex Minsky joined the Marine Corps with every intention of making a career out of it, but that plan was changed by an insurgent IED. Now he’s found a new life in the fast-paced world of male modeling.
Alex Minsky joined the Marine Corps right after high school, intending to stay in for the long haul. He’d spent most of his life as the troublemaker, but when that stopped at seventeen, he was left with little direction and no idea where to go from there.
When he entered, he had an inkling that he would be good at it. As infantry, he was deployed to Afghanistan with the intention of fighting the Taliban, but on his first deployment, his truck ran over an IED.
After time spent in a coma and losing his right leg, he woke up frustrated at the slowness of his recovery. He itched to get back into the fight, but doctors informed him that, due to severe brain trauma, that probably wasn’t an option. Without direction once again, he turned to alcohol.
After several DUIs, he was forced to get help. It was this period that showed him that when he was drinking, he was only running away—and he didn’t want to run away anymore.
He found that fitness was directly related to his sobriety, and his life only improved from there. He works as a fitness trainer and a male model, and since then he’s spent his career running toward things, instead of away.
The Air Force has taken a beating in recent years over its desire to retire the legendary A-10 Thunderbolt II from those who fly the airplane, troops on the ground, and Congressional lawmakers. The aircraft is very clearly a beloved, useful close-air support tool.
For much of this time, the Air Force kept the A-10 on a very low profile, going so far as to suppress a video about it, made by its own Combat Camera unit. Now, it looks like the Air Force is embracing the ugly duckling of its tactical jet family.
“If I have them, I’m going to use them,” Gen. Herbert “Hawk” Carlisle, the head of Air Combat Command, told Defense One. “They’re a fantastic airplane and I’m going to take advantage of them.”
The A-10 Warthog is the only aircraft built specifically for the CAS mission. The signature design feature is its 30mm gatling gun. The gun is more than 19 feet long and weighs more than 4,000 pounds. The distinctive sound made by the weapon (the BRRRRRT – created as rounds fire faster than the speed of sound), is music to the ears of the troops on the ground, so much so, the plane sometimes called “the grunt in the air.” A-10 pilots often find themselves providing support at “danger close” distances.
The Air Force wanted to retire the slow-moving but hardy plane to make room in the skies and in their budget for the F-35 Joint Strike Fighter, which Air Force Chief of Staff Gen. Mark Welsh III says is “designed for the whole battlespace.” The A-10 is considered to have a single role. As the worldwide campaign against ISIS (Daesh) in Iraq and Syria intensified further, the U.S. sent an A-10 fleet to Turkey to support ground operations in that theater. As worldwide conflicts place a greater demand on U.S. airpower, the Air Force is making room in its budget to maintain its A-10 fleets.
“Eventually… we will have to retire airplanes, but I think moving it to the right and starting it a bit later and maybe keeping the airplane around a little bit longer is something that’s being considered based on things as they are today and that we see them in the future,” said Carlisle.
Sen. Kelly Ayotte pointed out to Military.com how only last year the Air Force predicted the plane wouldn’t survive in the fight against ISIS. Gen. Michael Hostage, Carlisle’s predecessor, said he “can’t send an A-10 to Syria. It would never come back.” In the most recent National Defense Authorization, Congress literally forced the USAF to keep the plane, take retired A-10 out of storage, and appropriated funding for their maintenance.
“I look forward to reviewing the Air Force’s budget request early next year as it relates to the A-10,” Ayotte continued. “If the Air Force decides to end its campaign to prematurely divest the A-10, it would be a great day for our ground troops and a terrible day for America’s enemies.”
Aviadarts is an yearly Russian all-Army competition attended by units of the Aerospace Forces, four military districts and the Northern Fleet (and invited foreign air arms, such as China’s People’s Liberation Army Air Force – PLAAF, that took part in the previous editions). During the games, the best aircrews compete on different military specialties and conduct live firing exercises “to reinforce international military and technical military cooperation of the Contest participants; to raise the prestige of military service; to raise the level of training of the Contest participants; to demonstrate combat capabilities (military performance) of modern models of equipment, of weapons and military equipment.”
Physical training: with main and backup crews involved in physical exercises, pull-ups, freestyle swimming etc.
Visual aerial reconnaissance, that also includes formation flying
Combat employment against ground targets: during which combat planes and helicopter engage ground targets while military transport aircraft conduct cargo airdrops.
The All-Army Stage of the Aviadarts 2019 Competition is currently underway in Crimea. From May 24 to June 9, 2019, Aviation crews of the Aerospace Forces, 60 crews flying MiG-29SMT, Su-27SM3, Su-30SM, Su-35, Su-34, Su-24M, Su-25, Tu-22M3, Il-76MD and Mi-24, Mi-35 as well as Ka-52 and Mi-8 helicopters will take part in the drills.
A Russian Air Force MiG-29SMT.
Dealing with the helicopters, crews of Ka-52 Alligator, Mi-8 AMTSH Terminator, Mi-35 and Mi-28N Night Hunter helicopters perform ground attacks using 80-mm unguided missiles and firing 30-mm cannons at more than 70 targets (divided into 12 types for various types of weapons) at the Chaud range in Crimea.
The following video, released by the Russian MoD, shows some of the Russian gunships in action during Aviadarts 2019. The gunner seat view is particularly interesting.
Боевое применение авиации на всеармейском этапе конкурса «Авиадартс-2019»
The M203 grenade launcher entered service with the U.S. military in 1969 during Vietnam. It replaced the M79 “Blooper” stand-alone launcher, almost always being used as an under-barrel addition to an assault rifle.
Though it has served faithfully and effectively for over 40 years now and will continue to do so for years to come, the M203 is being phased out of Army service and is being replaced by the new M320 designed and built by Heckler Koch.
For now the Marines are sticking with the 203, though many top infantry advocates in the service want the Corps to replace its current ones with M320s.
The M320 won a competitive bidding process and entered production in 2008 with over 71,000 of the weapons planned for the U.S. Army. Soldiers of the 82nd Airborne Division were the first to field the weapon operationally.
While the M203 was capable of operating independently, in practice it is rarely used in standalone configuration. In fact, the old M79 resurfaced during Operation Iraqi Freedom as a superior option for grenade launcher duties without a rifle.
The break-action blooper (or ‘thumper,’ based on who you ask) was touted as a superior tool for the job when the whole rifle/launcher combo was too heavy or unwieldy, and standalone M203 units were not up to the task or simply unavailable.
The M79 has greater range and better accuracy than the M203. While it has performed admirably since Vietnam, no one has ever claimed that the M203 provided pinpoint accuracy.
The M79, introduced in 1961, is even older than the M203. Much more importantly, it’s not capable of being used as an under-barrel launcher on an M4 or M16 rifle. While stand-alone launchers definitely have their place, the need for a grenadier who is also a rifleman is a crucial one in most cases. A new, better, under-barrel 40mm grenade launcher was needed.
The M320 filled that need. Using the same high-low propulsion system of the M79 and M203 to keep recoil low while firing a heavy 40mm projectile, the M320 has the same range as the M203 while increasing accuracy and coming with a number of improvements over the older model.
One of the most noticeable upgrades over the M203 is the M320’s side-loading mechanism. The barrel swings out for loading, rather than the M203’s forward-sliding pump-like barrel. This allows the use of additional, longer, ammunition, particularly non-lethal rounds. With the weapon’s introduction, the Army is able to move forward with the development of new, high-tech rounds that wouldn’t fit in the M203.
Another obvious feature of the M320 is the folding foregrip. The grip is intended primarily for use when the weapon is used separate from a rifle, but it can also serve as a forward vertical grip when mounted under a barrel. When not needed, the foregrip can be easily folded back and out of the way.
The sights of the M320 are certainly more advanced than those of the M203, and they benefit from being integral to the launcher itself, being mounted on the side of the unit. The M203’s sights were attached separately and had to be re-zeroed every time.
The M320’s leaf sight simply flips up when needed, and the integrated electronic sighting system allows users to dial in the range as determined by laser and tell if they’re on target. This alone makes the M320 easier to field and more accurate in more conditions more of the time. While operating the M79 was an acquired ability and accuracy with the M203 was more art than skill, the M320’s sight helps to make every operator a capable grenadier.
The M320 has a double-action trigger compared to the M203’s single-action unit and has an ambidextrous safety. This allows the operator more control over his weapon, its firing, and better capability to handle a misfire or simple unloading.
Despite the M320’s technical advantages over its predecessors, its introduction did not come without some hiccups. All new weapons systems suffer from some teething pains, particularly when introduced during a time of war, and the new grenade launcher was no exception.
While intended to be lighter than the M203, the M320 is actually slightly heavier, weighing in at 3.3 pounds compared to the M203’s 3.0 pounds. While this difference is small, combat troops are already overloaded and every ounce counts.
While the new sight provides significant advantages over the M203’s sight, some troops have complained that it’s a little fragile for hard use in the combat zone. This may be due to the fact that the troops are used to not worrying about an M203 because there was so little to break.
Another complaint is that when used stand-alone with the stock assembly, the buttstock is a little short for many operators.
Finally, the single-point sling attachment of the stand-alone M320 meant that the weapon swung around and was often bouncing in the way, with troops calling for a holster of some sort to use while carrying the launcher unmounted. The Army responded by launching an M320GL Holster Soldier Enhancement Program.
The SEP was a “try-before-you-buy” program that used holsters from three different vendors and issued them to troops for testing and feedback. The holster solution will also address some of the concerns about the fragile sights, since the weapon won’t be bouncing around or getting dragged on the ground when the operator hits the dirt.
A comment found online from a soldier claiming to carry an M320 in Afghanistan says that the launcher is a pain in the ass and swings everywhere, he “wouldn’t trade it for anything else in a firefight.” It’s hard to come up with a better endorsement of the M320 than that.
The infantry squad leader is a billet that demands leadership and integrity. There is an unofficial rite of passage that every squad must endure. I’m not talking about the first order issued or the trials of combat. No–it’s when your squad leader sings his favorite, stereotypically “girly” songs. Maybe it’s boredom or his brain has turned to soup because of all the stupid he has to put up with.
In Afghanistan, our squad leader lost a bet to our Staff NCO and had to do a patrol debrief wearing spandex short shorts. What we saw was not meant for mortal eyes. The constant stretching and Ke$ha songs, however, were not mandatory. If he had to pay the price, so did all of us. If your squad leader doesn’t sing ridiculous songs at some point, is he even a real leader?
Ke$ha – Tik Tok
Vietnam Veterans had Jimi Hendrix and Creedence Clearwater Revival – meanwhile, we have this. Out of all the things that can give someone PTSD, I can’t listen to this song without remembering the horrors of that day. Was it worth it Staff Sergeant?
Pinkfong – Baby Shark
If you have had kids this song has given you PTSD. Naturally, drill instructors sunk their teeth into it immediately at the height of it’s popularity.
Katy Perry – Firework
For a long time, Katy Perry was the darling of the Marine Corps. She has done numerous shows for the troops on USO tours and even made a tribute music video. She has partnered with UNICEF and Generosity Water to help children around the world. Her humanitarian resume stretches decades into the past making it less inhibiting to be a fan in uniform. If your squad leader didn’t at least hum this during a tactical halt, sweating and losing his marbles – yet happy, then it wasn’t a real deployment.
Britney Spears – Baby one more time
A classic. A must have on the list. Generally the older SNCOs sing this because of their aversion to pop culture, although ironically, this is pop culture – but old.
Christina Aguilera – Genie in a Bottle
Same as above.
Lady Gaga – Bad Romance
When I was a devil pup embarking on my first deployment, this song hit the air waves. Unfortunately for us, since we were without internet, it was one of the only songs people would sing. Mother Monster is beautiful and a great singer. However, when her lyrics come out of the mouth of the leadership, you start reevaluating your life choices.
The Navy’s theme song
As is tradition.
Aqua – Barbie Girl
We’ve all sung this one. Laugh it up because then we’re going in a fun run when its over. Even the Russians are doing it!
The moment Otto Catalan had waited almost two decades for had finally arrived. Sitting in a small office, surrounded by his doctors and other medical staff, the blind U.S. Navy Veteran could only hope for one thing: to see the face of his teenage son for the first time.
“I see a lot of flashes, and they’re getting brighter,” he said. “Wow. It’s amazing.”
He turned his head to the right and saw bright flashes of light reflecting off the white coat of Miami VA Chief of Ophthalmology Dr. Ninel Gregori. When he turned to the left to talk with his son, he paused and began to cry. Gregori hugged him.
“Thank you very much, guys,” he said. “I’ll work hard, so I can see. It’s been 19 years, and I have been able to see my son. Thank you. Thank you so much.”
Catalan is keeping true to his word and continuing to work hard to learn how to use his new Argus® II prosthesis or “bionic eye.” Even though he struggled for years to come to terms with the loss of his sight, Catalan now feels optimistic about moving forward and beginning a new life.
“I’m learning something new everyday,” he said. “This prosthetic will help me be more successful in life. It’s already helping me be more mobile at home, and it’s going to make a big difference for me at work.”
Catalan’s struggles with vision loss began in 1989, when he was serving as a ship serviceman in the U.S. Navy. While he was on guard duty aboard a ship in the middle of the Persian Gulf, everything suddenly went dark.
“It felt like I was walking in the dark,” he said. “I told my superior officer, and he sent me to a doctor, but they couldn’t find out what it was. We went back to Virginia. They did extensive tests, and that’s when they found out I had retinitis pigmentosa.”
Catalan was scared when he heard the diagnosis. He never heard of retinitis pigmentosa and didn’t know what it would mean for his future. He was immediately removed from the ship and sent to rehab, and would eventually be medically separated from the military.
What is retinitis pigmentosa?
“Retinitis pigmentosa is one of the most common inherited diseases we see in ophthalmology,” Gregori said. “For people with this condition and certainly in Mr. Catalan’s case, the retina becomes very thin, and the photoreceptors, which convert light into electrical signals, gradually die off over time. Initially, peripheral vision, or the side vision, goes away, and then finally the central vision disappears.”
Catalan’s eyesight continued to deteriorate. Still needing to make money, he took a job as a cook. As his conditioned worsened, he struggled to tell if food was cooked and even burned himself multiple times. It was at this point that Catalan knew he needed help, so he went to the Northport VA Medical Center in New York.
“My doctors told me I needed to start preparing because I was going to be permanently blind soon,” he said. “After I heard that, I remember crying all the time. I couldn’t even hear someone say the word ‘see’ because I would burst into tears.”
The Northport VAMC referred Catalan to the VA Connecticut Healthcare System to participate in its Eastern Blind Rehabilitation Service’s three-month training program. While sitting through the training sessions and listening to the instructors and other Veterans, Catalan unexpectedly learned a valuable life lesson.
“Once I met other blind Vietnam Veterans at VA Connecticut and saw how well they were dealing with their situation, I never cried about my own condition again,” he said.
Throughout the program, he also learned to perform everyday tasks, such as shave his face, eat with utensils, identify clothing and walk with a cane. He stayed an additional two months to learn to use a computer and screen-reader technology.
Moving to Florida
In 2005, Catalan heard about ophthalmology research being conducted at the Miami VA Healthcare System and the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute, which serves as the ophthalmology department of the University of Miami Health System. He moved his family to Cutler Bay, Florida and transferred his care to the then Miami VA Medical Center—where he worked with Roberta Goldstein, now retired Miami VA visual impairment services team coordinator.
“Roberta was great,” he said. “She referred me to the prosthetics department at the West Palm Beach VAMC, so I could get equipment to help me go back to work. She’s the best.”
Shortly after receiving his prosthetics equipment, Catalan landed a job as a resource specialist with Marriott Hotels—where he still works today. He says Marriott has been accommodating to his condition, and he hopes to be considered for promotion one day.
In March 2015, he received a phone call that would help his chances of getting that long-awaited promotion and also change his life.
One of my hopes was to see my son’s face for the first time
When he heard about the “bionic eye,” Catalan requested an evaluation for the device at the Miami VA Eye Clinic. With the help of the low vision Miami VA team, Gregori selected him for the Argus II® screening evaluation and personally called his home to ask if he was still interested.
“He was a perfect candidate,” Gregori said. “His personality was extremely important. With artificial vision, the patient must have the patience to learn to interpret the lights and images he or she is seeing. Learning to use the Argus II is like learning a new language, so individuals with both an optimistic personality and a strong willingness to work hard are the best candidates for the technology.”
Dr. Gregori is the Miami VA chief of ophthalmology and an associate professor of clinical ophthalmology at the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute. In 2004, she was part of the surgical team that implanted the first Argus II® retinal prosthesis in a Florida patient, a non-Veteran from Tampa. She was eager to bring the new technology to the Miami VA, where she proudly serves South Florida Veterans and has lead the ophthalmology department for the past 10 years.
“Miami VA Medical Center Director Paul Russo and Chief of Surgery Dr. Seth Spector both enthusiastically welcomed the idea of making the bionic eye available to our Veterans. It would not have been possible without their support,” Gregori said.
It felt like I had just given somebody the best Christmas present
Catalan underwent surgery to implant the Argus® II, a new prosthesis approved in 2013 by the Food and Drug Administration to treat people with end-stages of retinitis pigmentosa, at the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute on Nov. 24, 2015. Catalan’s bionic eye was activated Dec. 11 by the Bascom Palmer Eye Institute’s biomedical engineers, under the supervision of Miami VA’s Dr. Ninel Gregori. Even though Gregori and her team had already been through the experience of turning on the prosthesis with a previous patient, Catalan’s moment was emotional nonetheless.
“When it was turned on, Mr. Catalan started crying, and it brought tears to my eyes,” Gregori said. “It felt like I just gave somebody the best Christmas present I had ever given to anybody in my life. That’s why I went into ophthalmology.”
“After 19 years, the first thing I saw was my son’s face,” Catalan said. “I could also see Dr. Gregori, and when we walked around the hall, I was able to tell where the door and window frames were for the first time. That might not mean a lot to other people, but it meant so much to me.”
Catalan continues to work with the Miami VA Blind Rehabilitation Team, lead by optometrist Dr. Kasey Zann, to learn how to use the Argus II® in his everyday life. Blind Rehabilitation Outpatient Specialist Linh Pham visits his home and trains him to use the device in his home environment and in public. He also works regularly with Gregori and her team at the Miami VA Eye Clinic.
“The Miami VA Healthcare System has amazing low vision and blind rehabilitation resources for Veterans. It is an ideal setting for rehabilitation after Argus II implantation,” Gregori said.
At home, Catalan now sees objects and walls, and can even see lights and motion on his television for the first time. His next goal is to learn to use his new computer at work. After his training, he will be able to see shapes, the different windows and letters on his computer screen.
During an outing with his family in early 2015, Catalan was surprised to see a sight he had not seen in years.
“On New Year’s Eve, I was able to see the fireworks outside for the first time in 19 years. My mouth stayed open for a while,” he said. “Now, when I’m walking on the grass, I can see the lines where the grass is versus where the sidewalk is. The fact that I’m walking outside and can see the lights makes it all worth it.”
About the Argus® II Retinal Prosthesis System
The Argus® II Retinal Prosthesis System—made by Second Sight Medical Products, Inc.—is an artificial retina, or bionic eye, that converts images into light and uses a miniature video camera that is mounted on a pair of glasses, said Gregori. Once the images are converted, they are wirelessly transmitted to a surgically implanted prosthesis located in the patient’s eye. The implant then stimulates the retina to produce an image that is sent to the brain for interpretation.
Well guys, the Army’s slogan of “Army Strong” has officially been put on the chopping block. It had a solid run between 2006 and now, but it’s time to close that chapter and move on to the next slogan.
“One of the major responses we get when we survey folks who don’t have experience with military service is strength, so we know the ‘Army Strong’ resonates… but I don’t think it tells the story, the full story of being a soldier,” Sgt. Maj. of the Army Dan Dailey told defense reporters.

The U.S. Army has had a mixed bag of slogans, from the out-freaking-standing, like “Be All You Can Be” and “I Want You,” to that awkward, blue falcon-inspired “Army of One.” Using those guidelines and past experiences, let’s focus in on what makes a good recruiting slogan. For all practical purposes, the slogan should be on par with a commercial product’s brand — after all, both try to entice the public and leave a lasting impression.
First thing to look for is how well it will stick in someone’s head. The idea of any slogan, for recruitment or otherwise, is to build brand recognition. The Navy ran an ill-fated “A Global Force for Good” slogan back in 2009. It sounds polite and it puts the Navy in a positive light, but it’s not turning any heads — it’s simply literal.
Just hearing that, even in context, doesn’t make any random person think, “Oh! I should join the Navy!” Their response to selling America’s Navy better in the eyes of younger potential sailors? Simply, “America’s Navy.” That lasted a whole two years before going to the objectively better “Forged by the Sea.” The Army needs a slogan that is uniquely Army.

Audiences have been quick to ask, “why not go back to ‘Be All You Can Be?'” The fact is, there’s no way of knowing whether young adults today will share the same connection with it as older Army vets once did. Put bluntly, the new slogan isn’t meant to reenlist retirees, but those who lived by the words should still be proud to say them. So, the goal is to make the slogan resonate with today’s young adults without making something embarrassing years down the line.
Brevity is also the key to a great slogan. The Army isn’t looking for some tired, furniture-salesman jingle. Something short, sweet, and to the point. “Army Strong” was good for this — keeping a two-to-four-word limit is a must. These slogans are easier for audiences to remember. After all, leaving a lasting, positive image of the Army is the goal. Many of the greatest ad campaigns in history have all been short and direct.
A great slogan subconsciously tells people of the benefits of their brand. In the Army’s case, it’s the benefit of being a soldier. At their cores, that’s why “Be All You Can Be” and “Army Strong” worked. They tell potential recruits that enlisting will improve their lives — and just as importantly, that they’re missing out on something if they don’t enlist.
Finally, the slogan should tell the truth of what it means to serve and should apply to all soldiers, from the beastly Special Forces operator to a regular training room clerk in the National Guard. Slogans like, “Be a Bad Mother F*cker” may grab eyeballs, but it isn’t exactly applicable.
Following all of these guidelines, the best slogan for convincing young adults who are thinking of enlisting is something along the lines of, “Become greater than yourself.” Simple, effective, true, and it’s a feeling that all soldiers feel when they serve — regardless of generation.
Only time will tell when the Army will adopt a new slogan. I wouldn’t be worried though. The bar is set at pretty low — just do better than “Army of One.” |
You know what a blog is great for? Shameless self promotion. I shall now direct you to two lovely things.
First, a piece of my writing (an edited version of this post) is now being included in the “Great Reads” section of Cane-iac’s website! I’m thrilled to be included here. I haven’t been asked to endorse them or anything, but I must say that the people who run the company and site are just lovely, that I’ve gotten the best customer service imaginable when ordering from them and that their implements are of the highest and most painful quality.
Additionally, I’m working on a few minor ways to improve this blog. Changes may be appearing as early as tonight, but I’m not making any promises. Thus far, the only visible differences appear to those who view my source code.
Those of you who follow me on fetlife know that I had a fairly rough day yesterday, and I’m still kind of recovering from that. I basically had insomnia the night before and didn’t sleep at all, and then had a few stressful things happen and then had stress induced insomnia until about 3 AM. I then got up and went to work, but I was able to come home early and get a refreshing nap in. It was seriously some of the best sleep I’ve ever had in my life.
|That’s my “I just woke up” face!|
I shall now be continuing on to Day Two of the Ten Day Journaling Meme!
9 Things About Myself:
1) My legal name is extremely long and includes two hyphens.
2) Before the onset of her Lupus, my mother was a professional ballerina. I was therefore forced into taking ballet for ten years. I was horrible at it and no one liked me there. I then took ballet in college to try to prove to myself that I could be good at it. I was horrible at it and no one liked me there. So I gave up.
3) I almost never wear a bra. The size and shape of my breasts don’t require it. I’m kind of enamored with my own boobs. Like, a lot.
4) I am pretty sure I will never stop wanting to buy more pervertables and underpants. Every store I go into, I look at them.
5)The longest time that I ever spent in a corner was two and a half hours.
6) That popular quote is wrong for me: my deepest fear IS that I am inadequate.
7) When I was sixteen, I could buy alcohol without being carded. Now, I frequently get mistaken for a minor. It makes me really uncomfortable to think that I’ve gotten younger looking in the last eight years.
8) There have been days that were more significant or “greater,” but the happiest day of my life was when Malignus took me to Bear Country USA. Looking at baby bears with a person who I’d recently realized I was in love with while I had a ridiculously sore bottom from having gotten a ton of spankings the week before is pretty hard to top. That was the day that I truly understood what it meant to allow myself to feel and focus on only good things for a little while. Also, the baby bears chewed each other’s ears and smelled like puppies.
9) I love being in school. I wish that being a professional student was practical/possible. |

The 14 Best Ghanaian Songs of the Month
Featuring Amaarae x Wande Coal, Juls, M.anifest, Efya, Kojey Radical and more.
Here are our favorite tracks to come out of the buzzing Ghanaian music scene in March.
Amaarae 'Spend Some Time' feat. Wande Coal
We previously explained 7 Reasons That Prove Wande Coal Has The Best Voice In Nigeria. In his new feature with Amaarae, his sweet and silky voice find the perfect partner in the Ghanaian artist, who made an entire EP of falsetto goodness with Passionfruit Summer. In the new single "Spend Some Time," Amaarae is plain speaking and needful while Coal mumbles & sings in falsetto, a casually impressive octave manipulation with which he teases and impresses time and again. —Sabo Kpade
M.anifest 'Rapper 101'
After much agitation from his fans for new music, elite emcee M.anifest breaks his six month hiatus by delivering a satirical masterclass on how to be a rapper, whetting appetites and buying time as he works out the kinks in his upcoming EP, The Gamble. —Nnamdi Okirike
Efya 'Kingston Child'
There's a case of a knotted lyric in the hook for "Kingston Child" when Efya sings—"Don't worry boy I gotcha / You will always be my protector"—which makes it unclear who the benefactor is on an otherwise fine song, her first release of 2019 since December's "Mamee" with Mr Eazi. "Kingston Child" is also rumoured to be the lead single of a forthcoming EP by the singer-songwriter. —S.K.
Singer and La Meme Gang member KwakuBs issues the video for his solo effort "Toi!," a catchy afropop number. The colorful and fun video details a day in the life of the singer, as he goofs around with friends while making his way to a blind date gone wrong. —N.O.
Kojey Radical 'Can't Go Back'
Harmonising female back-up vocals, a fest of horns, niggling guitar and lyrics about avoiding depression are carried by Kojey Radical's gravelly rap voice and pained singing voice, which is somewhere between a gasp and a chant. "I see pain in our people / I know we might see some more" insists Radical in what would seem like resignation but is in fact a clear-eyed realisation of a certainty and "true" weight of a thing rather than wrestle with the imagined totality of it all. —S.K.
Juls, Tiggs Da Author & Santi 'Maayaa'
Juls' new single is the perfect track to smooth over your weekend. "Maayaa," featuring Tiggs Da Author and Santi, is in keeping with Juls' running purpose of providing the vibes with substance. In this case, "Maayaa" is twofold: a dedication to the late and great Dr. Maya Angelou (as well as a nod to Thursday borns), and a declaration of honoring the strong, black woman.
Lord Paper 'Dzigbordi'
The dreadlocked Ghanaian act sings a message of love beyond the barriers of tribe on a mid-tempo, guitar laced trap ballad. He sings and dances in earnest while using the single and video to address an important African issue: tribalism and cross-cultural relationships. —N.O.
Shatta Wale 'Holy Man' & 'Hausa Koko'
Ever irrepressible, Shatta Wale builds blocks of staccato melody inside the hollow bounce of Paq's beat hitting damn near every consonant in his verses and chorus for "Hausa Koko" as well as delivering an attention grabbing line, "I no dey force woman like you / I no be rapist." It is the cumulative effect of his delivery on that single and "Holy Man" from which all musicality is gained. —S.K.
E.L "The HEARTS OF MEN"
E.L finally scores a national hit with his last release "Higher", and opts to consolidate his comeback with this self-produced afrobeats cut, as he delivers a sobering message wrapped in a danceable package. —N.O.
Eddie Khae 'Coupon'
A sturdy and unchanging bass drum is varied with cowbells and handclaps on this unabashed dance banger by Eddie Khae who is no short supply of charm and humour. —S.K.
Sam Opoku 'The One'
Ghanaian-American singer Sam Opoku makes his official debut with this afrobeats single "The One." Here, the bouncy backdrop provides him the setting to sing with conviction about the one he loves, making for a syrupy sweet afropop tune. —N.O.
Medikal 'Father' ft. Davido
Pop triumphalism drawing all it can from gospel for the selfish ends of pop success is either 1) a tired yet enjoyable old trope or 2) points to the elasticity of both genres. The video lacks imagination which is a shame as "Father" is well engineered for success in the sister markets of Nigeria and Ghana. —S.K.
Kwesi Arthur 'Fire In The Booth Freestyle'
In Kwesi Arthur's first appearance on Charlie Sloth's Apple Music Beats 1 show, he opens appropriately with a bar-fest about rap supremacy and self regard. The Ghanaian rapper's just as engaging over a trap beat and continues his mix of pidgin, twi, English before rounding up on an afroswing track in a drawl of a singing voice and some cheeky humour; "I hear you girl says she loves man and she can't even cook jollof". All along, an ever ebullient Sloth eggs and eggs him on. —S.K.
Patapaa 'My Destiny' ft. Guy Cemetery
Never a dull presence, Patapaa turns it up a notch on "My Destiny," a throbbing hip-life song that would be even closer to highlife itself if it did not include a rap verse. —S.K.

Literary agent Robert Gottlieb was kind enough to leave a comment in response to an interview Porter Anderson did with me for The Bookseller last week. While the comment wasn’t particularly responsive to what Porter and I discussed, it did raise some interesting related points that struck me as worthy of a detailed response.
I thought I’d address that response directly to Robert, in the hope that further engagement might prove useful and interesting to authors, agents, and others in the book business. Robert, your comments in quotes; my responses interpolated.
"Early on in the e-book environment some authors thought it was the only way to go.”
Could you name the authors who were advocating e-books as “the only way to go”? While many authors (I would include myself in their number) have over time devoted increasing marketing resources to digital rather than to paper because more and more of their sales are in digital, I don’t know of any author who has claimed paper should be outright avoided. Even Joe Konrath, as high-profile a proponent of the revolution in publishing as I know of, claims only that for many authors paper is becoming a subsidiary right, like foreign language or film rights (note that Konrath first blogged about this almost four years ago. He’s a prescient guy and I hope lots of agents read his blog).
But it doesn’t follow from this that anyone should abandon paper, any more than anyone should abandon digital, and in fact Joe (to stay with just this one example) makes tens of thousands of dollars a year from paper sales. Why would he or anyone else advocate giving up a potentially lucrative source of revenue?
I note all this because the very first sentence of your comment struck me as a straw man, and therefore not a productive way to introduce your thoughts. If I’m wrong, of course, and you can name some authors (citations and exact quotes would be helpful) who have declared digital "the only way to go,” I’d be grateful because I, too, would want to do what I could to push back against such wrong-headed advice.
"A problem with Thomas & Mercer is that they can't really do much on the print side of the equation. They are very good in the e-book publishing space.”
I don’t think anyone would much dispute that T&M’s strength is in online sales, and particularly in digital (I’ve published two novels and two short works with T&M myself, and have been extremely happy with the results). But it’s telling that you would describe T&M’s strength in online and digital as a “problem." Certainly for an author whose books sell in a ratio of, say, 99% brick-&-mortar/paper and 1% online/digital, T&M’s strengths and weaknesses would represent an unappealing mix.
But for an author whose books sold in the opposite ratio, T&M would be a very attractive publisher, indeed, while a legacy publisher would be a terrible fit. I’m sure you know that different authors sell in different ratios, with some more heavily represented in paper/brick & mortar and others more heavily represented in digital/online, so you should know that what you describe as a “problem” is for many authors exactly the opposite — a solution.
So the more relevant question — the question discussion of which is likely to prove most useful to authors trying to decide what form of publishing is best for them — is, “What are the various strengths and weaknesses of the various publishing avenues newly available to authors, and how do those strengths and weaknesses fit with your books, your goals, your needs?” That’s a discussion I would welcome, and I’ll bet other authors would find it beneficial, too.
"Authors need more than distribution in one channel of publishing.”
Well, authors don’t really “need” any particular channel. That said, it’s certainly desirable to have more channels, because each additional channel represents a potential benefit, both in terms of direct revenues and in less direct ways, such as overall brand awareness. But this raises a question you don’t discuss, which is: how much should authors pay for those benefits? An author whose sales ratio is heavily weighted toward paper might not mind much if she receives only 25% in digital royalties, because the low digital royalty would be an acceptable price to pay for the opportunity to leverage legacy publishing’s strength in paper channels.
But an author whose sales are primarily digital might legitimately wonder why she should give a legacy publisher such a large cut of digital revenues. After all, she doesn’t need a legacy publisher for digital distribution, a legacy publisher will publish her book much later than she would be able to publish it herself, and she’s not selling much in paper, anyway. Not to mention the various other reasons an author with a large digital-to-paper sales ratio might be leery of legacy publishing.
The thing to remember is this: there’s no one-size-fits-all solution for authors. Different authors have different needs, and, depending on those needs, different publishing services will be worth different premiums. Assuming otherwise is apt to be a disservice for the thousands of authors who don’t fit the single mix you assume is right for everyone.
"I advise authors that the more channels of publishing you are in the greater your reading audience will be now and in the future. That includes the international markets as well."
True enough, other things being equal. But things aren’t equal. Access to the various channels costs different amounts in different places, and again for whatever reason you act as though these channels are available for free (or at any rate that cost is irrelevant) and that they all represent the same value to all authors.
"That is how opportunity is created for growth in publishing.”
That, and nothing else? And again: why do you discuss only the opportunity, but never the opportunity cost? Discussing the potential benefits of a service isn’t particularly helpful if you don’t also discuss price.
This is just common sense, is it not? Telling someone how much she stands to benefit from a product or service without also discussing what that product or service is going to cost her is meaningless. If an insurance salesperson tried to sell you on a policy with such-and-such a payout, for example, would you immediately say, “Hell yes, sign me up!”? Or would you need to first consider how much you yourself needed that particular policy, and how much you would be charged for that policy, before being able to make an intelligent decision?
"Nothing remains the same and the end of traditional publishers as articulated by many was dead wrong.”
I don’t know why you would claim that “nothing remains the same.” Countless things remain the same. Legacy publishers still pay digital royalties at the same lockstep rate of 25%, still pay their authors only twice a year, still insist on life-of-copyright licenses, still issue royalty statements as impenetrable as the Dead Sea Scrolls, still insist on draconian rights lock-ups and anti-competition clauses. Books are still sold through traditional brick-and-mortar channels, still bought and enjoyed in paper. A martian revisiting the earth after a ten-year hiatus might reasonably conclude that more is the same in the book business than has changed.
As for the end of traditional publishers being dead wrong, don’t you feel it’s a bit early to be sanguine? I certainly hope publishers will read and implement the lessons of Clayton Christensen’s The Innovator’s Dilemma and I hope they’ll listen to Hugh Howey and Joe Konrath, too (as I’ve said many times, when someone is sick, you don’t want them to die, you want them to get well). But so far I don’t see much evidence of an onset of progressive and enlightened business practices in the legacy world.
Moreover: Borders is gone and B&N is in trouble. Legacy publishing’s current health is largely the result of the industry’s practice of paying authors so little in digital and keeping so much for themselves (a practice that for me always calls to mind the image of Wile E. Coyote racing off the cliff and thinking all is well because he’s running on air… until he looks down). See, for example, this excellent breakdown of Harper Collins’ own numbers:
"$27.99 hardcover generates $5.67 profit to publisher and $4.20 royalty to author
$14.99 agency priced e-book generates $7.87 profit to publisher and $2.62 royalty to author.
So, in other words, at these average price points, every time a hardcover sale is replaced by an e-book sale, the publisher makes $2.20 more per copy and the author makes $1.58 less. If the author made the same $4.20 royalty on the e-book sale as he/she would have on a hardcover, the publisher would STILL be making an improved profit of $6.28.
We have all heard the additional argument: that for a very large percentage of authors this is irrelevant since their advances don’t earn out– effectively raising their per unit royalty. That may be true, but it logically leads to what seems to me the most unfair aspect of all: That, therefore, the only authors that are financially punished by this system are the ones whose books perform very well. The ones whose books earn out. The big name authors and the celebrities whose books don’t perform to expectation are untouched; the author who gets a reasonable advance and whose book sells much better than expected are the ones who suffer the greatest loss.
How can anyone in this industry see that as defensible?"
If publishers lose more paper retail sales channels, and if digital continues to grow (more thoughts on this below), the 70% digital royalty available to authors though self-publishing is likely to entice increasing numbers of authors to go the indie route. Will this happen? If so, to what extent? And when? I’m not sure, but dismissing concerns about the long-term viability of legacy publishing’s current business practices as “dead wrong” strikes me as whistling past the graveyard rather than pausing to take a close look at what’s going on inside it.
"Some publishers have thrived and made the adjustments to the new environment and others have indeed struggled. It took a while for most major trade houses to get their footing as e-books substantially changed the publishing landscape. It is more like a layering process as each format finds space within the publishing layers. Traditional publishers still have a ways to go but they are pressing forward.”
I don’t have any material objections to any of this, most of which strikes me as so general as to be anodyne. I will note that if "it took a while for most major trade houses to get their footing” in digital, it might be because their primary response to the advent of e-books was price collusion and double deletion of pesky incriminating emails. If collusion is your primary response to changes in your industry, then yes, you might find yourself swaying around on the deck for a bit before gaining some digital sea legs. I don’t really understand what it means to publish in layers, but that could be because I’m not a legacy publisher.
I don’t doubt that publishers are "pressing forward," though I think I’m less confident than you that they’re pressing in the right direction. Publishing revolutionary Hugh Howie has some excellent thoughts on the directions publishers might usefully press forward in; I highly recommend it. Certainly legacy publishers might have gotten their digital footing a lot sooner if, rather than attempting to fix prices, they had heeded what Joe Konrath has been advising for years. Here he is in January 2010, March 2010, September 2010, and even all the way back in 2007 at a speech at Google, offering free, potentially life-saving advice to publishers that’s still incredibly relevant.
"Now the stats show e-book sales slowing. That's maybe because the initial growth which started at zero had a one way trajectory. A lot in the ebook space depends on innovation with the hardware as well as pricing. As prices rise that will also have an impact on ebook sales and history shows prices do move up more often than down.”
There is so much in this paragraph that’s misleading or outright wrong, I’m going to take it one sentence at a time. So:
"Now the stats show e-book sales slowing.”
This is at best a highly misleading way of describing what’s really happening, which is that the growth of e-book sales is slowing. Put more simply and accurately: ebook sales are not slowing, they are growing. Here, from Publishers Weekly: "Total e-book sales rose 44.2% in 2012, to $3.04 billion. The gain in e-book sales offset a flat performance by print sales which held virtually even at $12 billion between 2011 and 2012.” And here, from Futurebook: "If we look at these particular stats from Publishers Weekly, for this segment, sales of e-books rose to $2.07 billion from $869 million as units increased 210% to 388 million.”
There’s more: in December 2013, Amazon revealed that a quarter of US e-book sales were by indies. The numbers for B&N’s Nook are similar. Hachette and HarperCollins both report that e-book revenues are increasing — indeed, by 40% for Hachette.
Most astonishing of all is that missing from these figures demonstrating a still dramatically growing market are indie figures, because data is collected only from major publishers. That’s right: the e-book market is still growing, even when measured without including indie published books.
Calling this kind of continued explosive growth “slowing” is like saying a car that went from 50mph to 100 and then to 130 is “slowing” because since it hit 100mph its speed only increased by 30 percent. Would you honestly describe a car that just accelerated from 100 to 130mph as “slowing”? Because that’s what you just did with the e-book market.
(In fairness, there is a rich tradition among establishments of changing the meaning of words to suit the establishment’s purposes. See, for example, this excellent guide to the NSA’s Humpty-Dumpty definitions of everyday words like Collect, Relevant, Targeted, Incidental, Inadvertent, Minimize, and even No. In describing continued dramatic growth as “slowing,” you are in august company.)
In fact, by the standards of any industry at any time, the numbers above represent continued hyper growth. But because it’s slightly less hyper than it was in the previous year (as growth inevitably will be — it’s much easier to double your growth when you’re doing a million dollars in revenue than it is when you’re doing a billion — and again, even without including self-published books), establishment publishing is trying, whether out of ignorance or psychological denial or in an attempt at propaganda, to persuade authors (and perhaps themselves) that it’s all a “slowing.” For anyone who might be taken in by this false meme, here are two excellent articles with actual data, appropriate graphs, and sound analysis. There are many more — they’re not hard to find and it’s difficult to understand why you wouldn’t be aware of them.
"That's maybe because the initial growth which started at zero had a one way trajectory.”
I’m not sure what point you’re trying to make here — that sales can only improve when they start at zero? Doesn’t this truism apply to everything? And if you’re trying to say that the tremendous growth of ebooks is slowing in percentage terms because as a market gets bigger and bigger, continued growth represents a smaller percentage of the overall market, well, yes, that’s always true, and there’s nothing “maybe” about it. It’s a law of business, as well as of math. But it’s still growth — huge growth — and trying to frame such growth as “slowing” is unlikely to come across as honest and informed commentary.
"A lot in the e-book space depends on innovation with the hardware as well as pricing.”
On this we agree, but I think you might be misunderstanding the nature of innovation in the book world. Paper is a fully mature technology: there’s very little that can be done to improve it (although if Espresso book machines ever become widespread, they could decrease the cost of paper distribution, which would certainly be a positive development for paper books). In contrast, digital readers are continually, dramatically improving in functionality even as they fall in price. In other words, paper represents a static defence; digital, a dynamic offence. And between a static defence and a dynamic offence, over time the outcome is never in doubt. I wrote about this in more detail four years ago (Paper Earthworks and Digital Tides), and since then I’ve seen nothing but confirmation of my view.
"As prices rise that will also have an impact on e-book sales and history shows prices do move up more often than down.”
Can you cite even one technology or consumer product the price of which, adjusted for inflation and for increased features and other product improvements, has historically increased rather than decreased? What happens instead is that features and functionality improve and prices drop. Certainly this is exactly what’s been happening with digital readers and tablets, as anyone with even passing familiarity with the short history of the Kindle and the iPad knows. In the face of all this, it’s not easy to understand why you would argue that history suggests prices of digital readers are likely to increase.
Well, here’s one possible explanation: the one exception to the rule that consumer prices decrease over time is probably legacy-published books. But this is the exception that proves the rule, because legacy publishing functions as a cartel, exploiting its lock on paper distribution channels to artificially inflate prices. In the presence of actual competition, prices decrease, as they have for digital readers and tablets, and as they have for self-published books. It may be your intimacy with the legacy publishing world that’s caused you to confuse its practices of artificially keeping consumer prices high with the fact that in normal consumer markets, prices tend to fall.
If so, you’re missing the most fundamental impact of digital on the publishing industry, which is that digital has broken legacy publishing’s lock on distribution and therefore its lock on pricing. If legacy publishers are betting their business on the price of digital reader and digital book prices increasing, they’re badly in denial. And as the saying goes, denial has no survival value. Publishers need to approach the world realistically, and realism here means understanding that digital prices are not going to increase, and digital features are only going to improve.
"When an author is solely vested in one format it is like type casting.”
I suppose it could be, but really, isn’t this another straw man? Because what author is vested solely in one format? Can you name even one such person?
Publishing is not an either/or world anymore, and I don’t know any author who isn’t trying to leverage all available distribution channels. So again, the question for authors isn’t, “Should I sell my books only in paper?” or “Should I sell my books only in digital?” The question is, “How much should I spend and invest in the various channels available to me? How much are each of the available channels worth to me? What are my most effective routes into those channels?” These are relevant, helpful, and important questions, and setting up a straw man about how no one should be solely vested in a single format does nothing but obscure them.
"I've heard publishers worry that if an author does well at $1.99 will the public ever pay more?”
Yes, “can I sell a low-priced product for more" is a legitimate concern for all books and for all authors, as it is for everything else. Different brands will command different prices. A few years ago, I saw Ken Follett’s book Fall of Giants published in digital at something like $21.00 (no discount — that was the purchase price). Presumably Follett, an exceptionally strong brand, is maximizing his income at a $21.00 digital price point. For most authors, a price like that would be way too high. Every author needs to consider what per-unit price multiplied by volume will maximize his income. Different authors will experiment in different ways with different books and arrive at different answers. Reducing this complex and critical issue to something as narrow as publishers worrying about whether the public will pay more for an author whose previous success was achieved at $1.99 is not a particularly helpful approach.
"It is hard to move into other formats successfully.”
I’m not sure what you mean here. Hard how? Hard why? What might make it easier?
"Some have done it. At Trident we represent authors who started as e-book original authors and have found great success in other formats as well.”
Good news for Trident and for these other authors. I’m not sure what it signifies, though, other than that Trident has had some success in getting self-published authors legacy contracts. Not that this isn’t a potentially positive thing for all parties involved, of course, but what can other authors learn from it?
"The more formats the greater the reach. The greater the reach the more desirable an author is to a publisher. Simply math.”
Or to put it another way: “If you achieve great success on your own, more people will then be motivated to help you succeed.” AKA, “Nothing succeeds like success.” Okay, as far as truisms go. But why the assumption that the main metric and primary purpose of success in self-publishing is to become more desirable to a big publisher? This is an exceptionally parochial view, and a particularly odd one given that it starts from a straw-man premise — it’s better to have more sales channels than fewer — that is entirely axiomatic, that no one would dispute, and that is completely in keeping with what all authors are in fact doing in various individually customised ways.
In fact, as shocking as I know this will sound in some establishment circles, there are thousands of authors who actually prefer self-publishing because of its far higher royalties, faster time-to-market, and scope for controlling packaging, marketing, and other business decisions. Assuming all self-published authors secretly long for a legacy deal when they’re making so much money and are so happy without one is as antediluvian as the cliche “pyjama-clad bloggers.”
"Thomas and Mercer has already pushed back on the range of e-book royalties they once offered in order to get to a better profit position.”
You’re doing it again. You discuss potential benefits without discussing real costs. And now you’re discussing how T&M has lowered some of its royalties without bothering to compare T&M royalties with those of legacy publishers. And legacy publisher digital royalties are still much lower.
(Maybe this is like ebook sales “slowing”? Certain T&M royalties started at a higher number and are now lower, while legacy royalties started at an even lower number and have never changed, so the way to describe all this is as a “T&M pushback”?)
I don’t think these distortions are deliberate, by the way; rather, I think they’re likely a reflection of various biases of which you’re unaware. But that doesn’t make them any more helpful for authors who are trying to gather sound information on which they can build sensible business strategies. Wouldn’t it be more productive (and accurate) to say something like, “Amazon pays higher digital royalties than any other major publisher. Is that worth it to you? It depends on a lot of things — most fundamentally, how many of your sales are digital vs how many are paper. If most of your sales are digital, that higher digital royalty is going to matter a lot. If most of your sales are paper, then it might make sense to fork over a higher digital cut to a traditional publisher for access to the traditional publisher's strength in paper channels. There are other factors, as well.”
"The risk of paying advances and primarily selling e-books alone is a challenge at best.”
I’m sure it is a challenge. But what is the paper-based system, a cakewalk? How many legacy-published books lose money? How many legacy published authors are dropped after a book’s performance disappoints? Are these questions not at least equally worthy of discussion? Why would you describe only one publishing approach as a challenge, when obviously all approaches, in any business, for that matter, have their challenges? Do you think a description like that is accurate? Well calculated to offer authors information they can productively use as they go about planning their careers and implementing decisions? Why not instead offer some data about how many authors are making how much money with T&M vs how many are making how much with legacy publishers — and why? Wouldn’t that discussion be more interesting and relevant as authors try to decide which route makes sense for them?
Recently, David Gaughran blogged about astro-turfing by the publishing establishment. He quotes the chairman of the International Publishers Association as follows:
“We gathered all the communications people together to discuss the issues and create an action plan. We have a multi-faceted audience to address, and in the next 12 months you will see key messages delivered, compelling stories of our impact on society for culture and education. We’ll ask you to personalize that message. I’m very excited that there is a meeting of minds on this."
Robert, I don’t know if your comments were an example of this kind of key messaging — and I certainly hope not. But, respectfully, they feel that way. Don’t authors deserve better? Can we try?

After the CEO of AMC announced to reopen the theatres for the vaccinated public after significant changes to the theatre, the stock market created a buzz.
Lets begin with, what does AMC stands for? Well it mean American Multi-Cinema, Inc. Are you looking forward for precise information about AMC Entertainment Holdings, AMC Latest Stock Updates. In that case, make sure to stick throughout the article to know more about the famous entertainment company.
What AMC Entertainment Holdings, Inc. is all about?
AMC theatre is the prominent movie theatre company in the United States, the greatest in Europe and the Middle East, and the biggest throughout the world, with around 978 theatres and 10,833 screens across the globe. It has derived more innovation in the entertainment industry by lessening power-recliner seats.
Also, they have delivered improved food and beverages choice, producing the most considerable guest engagement through its loyalty and subscription ways, website, and mobile apps. They offer premium extensive format exposure and play a wide range of content, including new Hollywood movies and autonomous programming.
The company conducts services through two fragments: U.S. markets and global markets. It licenses first-run films from publishers owned by film production firms and independent sellers on a film-by-film and theatre-by-theatre foundation. It additionally proposes food and beverage products that include refreshments and snacks, popcorn, soft drinks, sweet and hot dogs, coffee, meals, beers, wine, and blended drinks, and another gourmet.
In the U.S. markets, it manages theatres in about 44 states and the District of Columbia. In global businesses, it conducts theatres in roughly 13 European countries and Saudi Arabia. It runs about 1,004 theatres and over 11,041 screens in nearly 15 countries, including over 636 theatres resulting from almost 8,094 screens in the United States and beyond 368 theatres and approximately 2,947 screens in European businesses and Saudi Arabia.
AMC Entertainment Holdings owns, operates, or holds interest in 348 movie theatres with a total of 4,960 screens, primarily in North America. The company was founded in 1920 and is based in Leawood, Kansas.
What is the major change to the theatre during the coronavirus pandemic?
AMC Entertainment CEO Adam Aron declared recently that his company’s movie theatres made some changes to keep people safe from the novel coronavirus — including adding new air filtration methods.
Aron said on “Squawk Box” that the theatres have increased cleanliness across the board. He mentioned that “Our theatre cleanliness scores are the best they’ve been in decades, an all-time high” and added, “I think you can eat off the floor.”
Aron said the theatre chain worked with Clorox and Harvard University’s School of Public Health to create a safer experience. Face mask conditions and social distancing standards were absolutely continued, although the theatre chain did even more than that. Aerosolised microdroplets could lead to the spread of the novel coronavirus, which has led people to worry about travelling to indoor spaces, NPR reports.
So movie theatres have had to accommodate. Aron stated, “But much more important than that, we’ve invested literally millions and millions in high-tech solutions. We’ve upgraded our air filters to MERV 13. It’s about four times the filtration that we had prior to the COVID-19 pandemic.
We’ve bought electrostatic sprayers for all of our theaters so that we’re spraying down our auditoriums with these electronically charged cleaning solutions, so we’re all over both tough and airborne transmission of the virus.”
Ready to head back to the AMC movie theatre?
Before going to the AMC theatre near me, Sulmonte emphasises the significance of monitoring local community extent (which will consider alternatives that grow more immediately), checking vaccination flows in the enclosing area, and estimating your risk determinants. As Sulmonte typically comes into touch with immunocompromised victims, for whom the vaccine might not be as potent, he is refraining from attending the movie shows to blunder on the side of care. “I’m very pleased right now with the streaming options at the time,” he states. “My account of a movie theater is having my full-grown dog sitting on top of me.”
What is the AMC Latest Stock Updates?
Recently the AMC theatre stock Entertainment rose , and the reason behind this heighten is the selling of a theatre chain that comprises 8 million shares to an investment firm. In a statement given by the AMC executive in a securities filing, the share was raised to $230.5 million by a stock sale to Mudrick Capital Management. The AMC theatre stock company declared that the funds would be likely used for benefits, improving the theatre, and paying off its balance sheet. Although, the rate of share was snoring up to 22.6% when the market closed.
On Tuesday afternoon, Bloomberg News proclaimed that Mudrick had sold each of its new shares in AMC. Hence, the stock declined from its highs of the day following the announcement.
If we talk about the business health of the AMC theatre, then it was effectively surpassed during the global pandemic as the movie theatre closed in most of the countries and the rest of the significant theatre was postponing the release date of the movie. Though, the stock grew a favourite of traders on Reddit and has witnessed excessive fluctuations in current months.
The shares doubled last week on astonishingly high volume as the risky movement by retail traders driven by message board chats ramped back up once over. The firm has taken the power of those price waves by selling additional shares to accumulate funds. The stock is up more than 1,000% year to date.
“Given that AMC is raising hundreds of millions of dollars, this is an extremely positive result for our shareholders,” the CEO moreover President Adam Aron stated in a filing. “It was accomplished through the issuance of only 8.5 million shares, representing less than 1.7% of our issued share capital and only a small portion of our typical daily trading volume.”
Another reason can also be there behind the dramatic price swing, and that is due to the short squeeze in the stock, which is affected by traders. These traders have bet against stock purchasing the share to restrict their losses. Approximately twenty percent of the company’s floated shares are traded short, according to S3 Partners.
AMC is in debt, which caused around $5 billion, and obliged to submit $450 million in lease repayments as its profits essentially wiped out throughout the global pandemic. To restrict the spread of the virus, theatres were closed for many months to contribute to the cause. Whereas, when the theatres open and back to their previous state, still few appear at the screening. Consequently, movie studios hold on to new movie releases.
Why AMC Stock Skyrocketed Today?
AMC theatre stock Entertainment soared on Thursday as merchants on Reddit, Twitter, and other social media sites advised people to purchase the famous meme stock. AMC’s share price was higher more than 35% at the end of trading after soaring as much as 52% earlier in the day.
The stock of AMC theatre is the most talked-about stock on the 10 million member-strong Reddit group, WallStreetBets. In up-to-date days, Reddit’s dealers have ramped up their advertising of AMC’s stock. The Hashtags, including #AMSTRONG, #AMCSqueeze, and even #AMC500k, are trending on Twitter. This social media murmur has accommodated to fire a quick assembly in AMC’s stock price.
As the price grew distinctly, more people accumulated in. Individual investors leaned over $22 million into AMC’s stock on Tuesday alone, as per The Wall Street Journal. Moreover, on Thursday, AMC was the common actively traded stock on the New York Stock Exchange.
Many AMC buyers are expecting to ignite a short squeeze. By adjusting their investments and pushing up the stock’s price, they’re hoping to drive short-sellers to exit their positions. And to do so, short-sellers need to purchase back the shares they traded short — a dynamic that can stimulate a decisive upward move in the price of a heavily shorted stock.
According to Bloomberg, short-sellers betting against AMC has already suffered hundreds of millions of dollars of losses this week. And with approximately 20% of AMC’s float still sold short, the figure may grow much more noticeable if the short squeeze continues any long-drawn.
Nevertheless, here is some information investors may want to reconsider. The #The AMC500k hashtag on Twitter is being used to promote the concept that AMC’s stock price could tower to $500,000 per share, higher from $26.52 today. If that were to happen, with its over 490 million shares outstanding, AMC’s business capitalization emphasizes to be approximately $245 trillion.
That might be a little bit costly for a struggling movie theatre chain, particularly since the total market cap of all U.S. public companies is roughly $50 trillion.
What is a meme stock?
A stock is called a meme stock that has noticed an expansion in an amount not because of the company’s achievement, however somewhat because of hype on social media and online discussion panels such as Reddit. This is the reason that these stocks usually become overrated, seeing extreme price increments in just a brief period of time.
Overall, a meme stock is any openly traded company that is profiting from the forces described above – a group of common investors who are utilizing social media to take an interest in the company’s shares. Hence, GameStop and AMC are the two most well-known examples. But there have been others that have also appreciated some moderate progress, such as Bed Bath & Beyond and BlackBerry.

This is a fun weekly meme hosted by That Artsy Reader Girl. This week's topic is favorite book quotes, which is right up my alley!

The hardest part with this post was deciding which ones to post...and limiting myself to only ten. But I did my best, choosing quotes from 5 recent reads, and 5 classics. Here they are:
"If the books I have read have helped to form me, then probably nobody else who ever lived has read exactly the same books, all the same books and only the same books as me.

Here's hoping that mermaids become as big a meme as zombies; they're much more appealing.
Essential work on planned reservoirs in Zimbabwe has stopped because mermaids have been hounding workers away, according to the country's Water Resources Minister.
Samuel Sipepa Nkomo told a Zimbabwean parliamentary committee that terrified workers are refusing to return to the sites, near the towns of Gokwe and Mutare.
Minister Nkomo said the only way to solve the problem was to brew traditional beer and carry out any rites to appease the spirits.
Mermaids and beer! This gets even better.
John William Waterhouse - "The Mermaid" -1901
All the officers I have sent have vowed not to go back there', Minister Nkomo was reported as saying in Zimbabwe's state-approved Herald newspaper. The senior politician said that mermaids were also present in other reservoirs. 'We even hired whites thinking that our boys did not want to work but they also returned saying they would not return to work there again,' he added.
The two, long overdue reservoirs are considered essential if Zimbabwe is provide adequate water to its population and to boost its agricultural production. Having once been the 'bread basket' of Southern Africa, the country's farms have been laid low by lack of faith in government policy.
Rupert Bunny - "Mermaids Dancing" - 1896
From 2000, President Robert Mugabe expropriated some 4,000 white owned farms and gave them to politically connected blacks.
Ah, crony capitalism in action; prefiguring Solyndra.
Partly as a result, agricultural production is this year forecast to be at its second lowest level since Zimbabwe achieved independence from Britain in 1980.
Collier Smithers - "A Race with Mermaids and Tritons"
And working as well as usual.
The belief in mermaids and other mythical creatures is widespread in the country, where many people combine a Christian faith with traditional beliefs.
Local Government, Rural and Urban Development Minister Ignatius Chombo said the government wants to give the population the water it needs, but cannot do so until the rituals are performed and necessary repairs can be carried out.
Three quarters of Zimbabwe's population live on less than one US dollar a day.
So, are we angling for mermaid based tourism? As much as I'd like to see an actual mermaid (and not a Florida fake), I don't think I'd visit Zimbabwe to see her. |

I had set aside Wednesday for blogging about food. Then my lovely Sister in The Netherlands, Marion Driessen, AKA The DuTchess, asked me to meme-sit her Six-Word Wednesday Story Challenge during her vacation, and I moved Food to Tuesday. Now things are back in balance.
See, I have a semi-themed blog. Saturday is Caturday. Sunday is Sample Sunday. Monday is writerly things. Friday is recommendations. That left Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday. Well, as you can plainly see, another special day would have to be Wednesday. Otherwise … no … good….
So today I’m posting about food, as always on Tuesday, at Fatal Foodies, today on the subject of drinks that changed the world. No, not just for me. And tomorrow, I’ll be doing my regularly scheduled food post here, right in the middle of the week, right where it belongs.
~sigh~ What a relief.

1. Your Most Anticipated Release of the Year
Anxious People by Fredrik Backman
Viewing an apartment normally doesn’t turn into a life-or-death situation, but this particular open house becomes just that when a failed bank robber bursts in and takes everyone in the apartment hostage. As the pressure mounts, the eight strangers slowly begin opening up to one another and reveal long-hidden truths.
First is Zara, a wealthy bank director who has been too busy to care about anyone else until tragedy changed her life. Now, she’s obsessed with visiting open houses to see how ordinary people live—and, perhaps, to set an old wrong to right. Then there’s Roger and Anna-Lena, an Ikea-addicted retired couple who are on a never-ending hunt for fixer-uppers to hide the fact that they don’t know how to fix their own failing marriage. Julia and Ro are a young lesbian couple and soon-to-be parents who are nervous about their chances for a successful life together since they can’t agree on anything. And there’s Estelle, an eighty-year-old woman who has lived long enough to be unimpressed by a masked bank robber waving a gun in her face. And despite the story she tells them all, Estelle hasn’t really come to the apartment to view it for her daughter, and her husband really isn’t outside parking the car.
As police surround the premises and television channels broadcast the hostage situation live, the tension mounts and even deeper secrets are slowly revealed. Before long, the robber must decide which is the more terrifying prospect: going out to face the police, or staying in the apartment with this group of impossible people.
Rich with Fredrik Backman’s “pitch-perfect dialogue and an unparalleled understanding of human nature” (Shelf Awareness), Anxious People’s whimsical plot serves up unforgettable insights into the human condition and a gentle reminder to be compassionate to all the anxious people we encounter every day.
There are so many books that I am looking forward to, but there is no denying that Anxious People is the one that I am most excited about. I actually have a countdown on my phone for its release date! No one creates characters quite like Backman does, and Anxious People seems like a departure from what he typically writes. I am so curious to see what he does with a thriller! I am a huge fan of books told from multiple perspectives, with each one viewing the same event in a completely different way. Although I do not want to wish the summer away, September 8th cannot come soon enough!
2. A Book You’re Not Anticipating
The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.E. Schwab
A Life No One Will Remember. A Story You Will Never Forget.
France, 1714: in a moment of desperation, a young woman makes a Faustian bargain to live forever and is cursed to be forgotten by everyone she meets.
Thus begins the extraordinary life of Addie LaRue, and a dazzling adventure that will play out across centuries and continents, across history and art, as a young woman learns how far she will go to leave her mark on the world.
But everything changes when, after nearly 300 years, Addie stumbles across a young man in a hidden bookstore and he remembers her name.
I know that so many people are highly anticipating The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue, but I struggle with V.E. Schwab’s writing style. I have read a couple of her books, but I have not loved any of them. The synopsis of this book really intrigues me, but so have the synopses of all her other novels. I will have to wait and read a few more reviews before I decide if this is a book I truly want to read.
3. Most Underhyped Anticipated Release
Blood Moon by Lucy Cuthew
A timely feminist YA novel in verse about periods, sex, shame and going viral for all the wrong reasons.
BLOOD MOON is a YA novel about the viral shaming of a teenage girl. During her seminal sexual experience with the quiet and lovely Benjamin, physics-lover and astronomy fan Frankie gets her period – but the next day a gruesome meme goes viral, turning an innocent, intimate afternoon into something sordid, mortifying and damaging.
I saw a review for this book on Instagram recently, and I was instantly intrigued. I think it is important to normalize discussions around periods. I also know that is common for young girls to experience an embarrassing event or have been shamed as a result of their period. This sounds like a book many girls and women alike will relate to, and I hope that it receives more attention when it is released in September!
4. A Book You’ve Been Waiting on for Forever
The Heart Principle by Helen Hoang
To most people, Quan Diep is nothing but a surly-looking, underachieving playboy. The problem is he’s not any of those things. And now that he’s the CEO of an up-and-coming retail business, he’s suddenly a “catch,” and the rich girls who never used to pay any attention to him are looking at him in a new way—especially Camilla, the girl who brushed him off many years ago.
Anna Sun dislikes Quan Diep almost as much as germy bathroom door handles. Or so she tells herself. She will never admit that she has a secret crush on him, especially because he only has eyes for her charismatic and newly engaged younger sister Camilla. Over the years, Anna has worked hard to overcome her OCD, but she’ll still need to find a way to bury her anxieties and seduce Quan so he doesn’t ruin her sister’s engagement, and with it, a crucial real estate development deal.
Slowly, Anna breaks down Quan’s dangerous and careless exterior while peeling off her own tough, protective shell. But when Quan discovers Anna’s true intentions, he’s forced to confront his own hurtful past and learn to forgive, while Anna must face her greatest challenge: truly opening herself up to love.
The Kiss Quotient and The Bride Test are two of my favourite contemporary romance novels, and I was initially under the impression that we would be getting the third book, The Heart Principle, in 2020. I was so sad to discover that it won’t be released until May of 2021! This has been a painful wait- I just want to read Quan’s story already!
5. A Book You’re Anticipating That’s Out of Your Comfort Zone
Invisible Girl by Lisa Jewell
LONDON:On a fine avenue of grand houses, big cars and electronic gates, lies a neglected urban wasteland
It is nearly midnight, and very cold. Yet in this dark place of long grass and tall trees where cats hunt and foxes shriek, a girl is waiting…
When Saffyre Maddox was ten something terrible happened and she’s carried the pain of it around with her ever since. The man who she thought was going to heal her didn’t, and now she hides from him, invisible in the shadows, learning his secrets; secrets she could use to blow his safe, cosy world apart.
Owen Pick is invisible too. He’s thirty-three years old and he’s never had a girlfriend, he’s never even had a friend. Nobody sees him. Nobody cares about him.
But when Saffyre Maddox disappears from opposite his house on Valentine’s night, suddenly the whole world is looking at him. Accusing him. Holding him responsible.
Because he’s just the type, isn’t he? A bit creepy?
INVISIBLE GIRL: A story of secrets and injustices, and of how we look in the wrong places for the bad people while the real predators walk among us in plain sight.
I enjoy a good thriller/mystery every now and again, but I always read them on a whim and I never keep track of when they are being released or have a thriller author that I am loyal to- that was until I read The Family Upstairs by Lisa Jewell. Jewell has such an incredible way of creating atmosphere, which I am sure will also be the case in Invisible Girl. This sounds so creepy, and I am ready for it!
6. Your Top 3 “Can’t-Wait” Books Of The Year
Magic Lessons by Alice Hoffman
Where does the story of the Owens bloodline begin? With Maria Owens, in the 1600s, when she’s abandoned in a snowy field in rural England as a baby. Under the care of Hannah Owens, Maria learns about the “Unnamed Arts.” Hannah recognizes that Maria has a gift and she teaches the girl all she knows. It is here that she learns her first important lesson: Always love someone who will love you back.
When Maria is abandoned by the man who has declared his love for her, she follows him to Salem, Massachusetts. Here she invokes the curse that will haunt her family. And it’s here that she learns the rules of magic and the lesson that she will carry with her for the rest of her life. Love is the only thing that matters.
Magic Lessons is a celebration of life and love and a showcase of Alice Hoffman’s masterful storytelling.
This is another prequel to Practical Magic, which I didn’t know that I needed as I loved Rules of Magic so much, but I am ready for it!
Cemetery Boys by Aiden Thomas
Yadriel has summoned a ghost, and now he can’t get rid of him.
When his traditional Latinx family has problems accepting his gender, Yadriel becomes determined to prove himself a real brujo. With the help of his cousin and best friend Maritza, he performs the ritual himself, and then sets out to find the ghost of his murdered cousin and set it free.
However, the ghost he summons is actually Julian Diaz, the school’s resident bad boy, and Julian is not about to go quietly into death. He’s determined to find out what happened and tie up some loose ends before he leaves. Left with no choice, Yadriel agrees to help Julian, so that they can both get what they want. But the longer Yadriel spends with Julian, the less he wants to let him leave.
This may be cheating because I have already read an eARC of Cemetery Boys, but I cannot wait to have the physical copy, and I want everyone to read this book when it comes out!
The Pull of the Stars by Emma Donoghue
Dublin, 1918: three days in a maternity ward at the height of the Great Flu. A small world of work, risk, death and unlooked-for love, by the bestselling author of The Wonder and ROOM.
In an Ireland doubly ravaged by war and disease, Nurse Julia Power works at an understaffed hospital in the city center, where expectant mothers who have come down with the terrible new Flu are quarantined together. Into Julia’s regimented world step two outsiders—Doctor Kathleen Lynn, on the run from the police, and a young volunteer helper, Bridie Sweeney.
In the darkness and intensity of this tiny ward, over three days, these women change each other’s lives in unexpected ways. They lose patients to this baffling pandemic, but they also shepherd new life into a fearful world. With tireless tenderness and humanity, carers and mothers alike somehow do their impossible work.
In The Pull of the Stars, Emma Donoghue once again finds the light in the darkness in this new classic of hope and survival against all odds.
Emma Donoghue wrote one of my favourite novels, The Wonder, but I somehow had no idea that she had a new book coming out! I was so thrilled when Libro fm sent me an ALC, and I will be listening to it soon. Look out for my review!
7. Top 5 Most Anticipated Backlist Books On Your TBR
The Girl with the Louding Voice by Abi Daré
A powerful, emotional debut novel told in the unforgettable voice of a young Nigerian woman who is trapped in a life of servitude but determined to fight for her dreams and choose her own future.
Adunni is a fourteen-year-old Nigerian girl who knows what she wants: an education. This, her mother has told her, is the only way to get a “louding voice”—the ability to speak for herself and decide her own future. But instead, Adunni’s father sells her to be the third wife of a local man who is eager for her to bear him a son and heir.
When Adunni runs away to the city, hoping to make a better life, she finds that the only other option before her is servitude to a wealthy family. As a yielding daughter, a subservient wife, and a powerless slave, Adunni is told, by words and deeds, that she is nothing.
But while misfortunes might muffle her voice for a time, they cannot mute it. And when she realizes that she must stand up not only for herself, but for other girls, for the ones who came before her and were lost, and for the next girls, who will inevitably follow; she finds the resolve to speak, however she can—in a whisper, in song, in broken English—until she is heard.
So many bookish friends have told me that The Girl With the Louding Voice is there favourite book of the year, so I obvious have to read it!
Patsy by Nicole Y. Dennis-Benn
When Patsy gets her long-coveted visa to America, it comes after years of yearning to leave Pennyfield, the beautiful but impoverished Jamaican town where she was raised. More than anything, Patsy wishes to be reunited with her oldest friend, Cicely, whose letters arrive from New York steeped in the promise of a happier life and the possible rekindling of their young love. But Patsy’s plans don’t include her overzealous, evangelical mother―or even her five-year-old daughter, Tru.
Beating with the pulse of a long-witheld confession, Patsy gives voice to a woman who looks to America for the opportunity to choose herself first―not to give a better life to her family back home. Patsy leaves Tru behind in a defiant act of self-preservation, hoping for a new start where she can be, and love, whomever she wants. But when Patsy arrives in Brooklyn, America is not as Cicely’s treasured letters described; to survive as an undocumented immigrant, she is forced to work as a bathroom attendant and nanny. Meanwhile, Tru builds a faltering relationship with her father back in Jamaica, grappling with her own questions of identity and sexuality, and trying desperately to empathize with her mother’s decision.
Expertly evoking the jittery streets of New York and the languid rhythms of Jamaica, Patsy weaves between the lives of Patsy and Tru in vignettes spanning more than a decade as mother and daughter ultimately find a way back to one another.
Much like The Girl With the Louding Voice, I have heard only incredible things about Patsy.
How to Write an Autobiographical Novel by Alexander Chee
How to Write an Autobiographical Novel is the author’s manifesto on the entangling of life, literature, and politics, and how the lessons learned from a life spent reading and writing fiction have changed him. In these essays, he grows from student to teacher, reader to writer, and reckons with his identities as a son, a gay man, a Korean American, an artist, an activist, a lover, and a friend. He examines some of the most formative experiences of his life and the nation’s history, including his father’s death, the AIDS crisis, 9/11, the jobs that supported his writing—Tarot-reading, bookselling, cater-waiting for William F. Buckley—the writing of his first novel, Edinburgh, and the election of Donald Trump.
By turns commanding, heartbreaking, and wry, How to Write an Autobiographical Novel asks questions about how we create ourselves in life and in art, and how to fight when our dearest truths are under attack.
I have had the audiobook for How to Write an Autobiographical Novel for awhile now, and I need to read it! I have recently discovered a love for memoirs told through essays, so this is perfect for me.
The End of the Ocean by Maja Lunde
In 2019, seventy-year-old Signe sets out on a hazardous voyage to cross an entire ocean in only a sailboat. She is haunted by the loss of the love of her life, and is driven by a singular and all-consuming mission to make it back to him.
In 2041, David flees with his young daughter, Lou, from a war-torn Southern Europe plagued by drought. They have been separated from their rest of their family and are on a desperate search to reunite with them once again, when they find Signe’s abandoned sailboat in a parched French garden, miles away from the nearest shore.
As David and Lou discover personal effects from Signe’s travels, their journey of survival and hope weaves together with Signe’s, forming a heartbreaking, inspiring story about the power of nature and the human spirit in this second novel from the author of the “spectacular and deeply moving” (New York Times bestselling author Lisa See) The History of Bees.
The History of Bees is an incredible book, and I often say that it is so underrated. I am so excited to read another book from Maja Lunde!
Pachinko by Min Jin Lee
In the early 1900s, teenaged Sunja, the adored daughter of a crippled fisherman, falls for a wealthy stranger at the seashore near her home in Korea. He promises her the world, but when she discovers she is pregnant–and that her lover is married–she refuses to be bought. Instead, she accepts an offer of marriage from a gentle, sickly minister passing through on his way to Japan. But her decision to abandon her home, and to reject her son’s powerful father, sets off a dramatic saga that will echo down through the generations.
Richly told and profoundly moving, Pachinko is a story of love, sacrifice, ambition, and loyalty. From bustling street markets to the halls of Japan’s finest universities to the pachinko parlors of the criminal underworld, Lee’s complex and passionate characters–strong, stubborn women, devoted sisters and sons, fathers shaken by moral crisis–survive and thrive against the indifferent arc of history.
Pachinko is a book that I have had on my TBR shelf for far too long, especially since I just know that I am going to love it! This is the summer that I finally read it!

In a week that has been filled with imagery from Cairo, Noah Addis‘ installation of large format prints at 110 Church Gallery in Old City is even more relevant and emotive. Today in Philadelphia the weather is extraordinarily hot outside, but, Cairo, Egypt is a meme for hot places on Earth. The photograph above is a large scale print and was shot with a four by five camera capturing an information rich image of the architectural landscape of the Egyptian city.
The solemn windowless structure, a grid of cement and brick, is housing for people. They don’t live without windows, however, they punch out some of the bricks to create openings transforming the blank wall offering a glimpse into the life of the people who live there.
Noah Addis sets up his four by five camera and waits for that magic light moment to capture on the large negatives, he’ll wait for hours to catch the image that creates the narrative the best. There aren’t many people in the photographs but the signs of life are everywhere. Seeing how other cultures live and comparing it to life here is so compelling and informative. The photographs are beautiful and impeccably printed but the signification of the shapes and their relevance to global culture is unforgettable.
The landscape above with the soccer field and community park has to be seen to believed. The town with cliff side villas is a community where trash is recycled. The debris pours down the mountainside like a mudslide of human consumption and consumerism. The soccer field walls hold back mounds of trash that cannot somehow be recycled, up-cycled, reused or restored by the inhabitants.
Future Cities –
“According to United Nations estimates there are more than a billion squatters living today–one out of every six people on earth. This number is expected to double to two billion by 2030. And by the middle of the century there will be three billion squatters.” – Noah Addis artist statement
110 Church Gallery, through July 27, 2013
Saturday, July 27 @ 1:30 pm
Noon – 4 pm
In an ongoing partnership with The Center for Emerging Visual Artists (CFEVA) we are pleased to present Future Cities, Cairo, an Alumni Solo Exhibition featuring work by Noah Addis curated by Stella Gassaway. The exhibition is on view through July 27, 2013 at 110 CHURCH gallery located at 110 Church Street in Old City Philadelphia.

Following the controversy around Lizzo’s record-breaking single Truth Hurts, a Hocus Pocus parody group has covered the song in a witchy way for Halloween. Because, well, why not?
With Halloween just around the corner, we’re feeling pretty witchy. And, as we all know, the ultimate Halloween film to get us feeling spooky is Hocus Pocus. So this year’s celebrations will be particularly hell-raising, after news that the classic 90s film is reportedly getting a sequel. Yep, Disney has hired original writer Jen D’Angelo to pen a new script, and she’s keen to get Sarah Jessica Parker, Bette Midler and Kathy Najimy on board. But, before we too excited for what’s to come, let’s concentrate on this year…
Cue: a Hocus Pocus remix of Lizzo’s Truth Hurts.
The singer shared a video on social media, which has since gained over 60,000 likes. It showed a parody group of the Hocus Pocus witches singing a Halloween version of the hit Truth Hurts.
“Y’all hoes ain’t ready for Halloween until u sing truth hurts in the style of the Hocus Pocus witches and that’s on period, pooh,” Lizzo captioned the video.
After some serious investigating, we’ve found that the group of women behind the video are actors Gina Naomi Baez, Andrea Galeno and Mary Sharon – otherwise known as the Sanderson Sisters.
And if you fancy singing along, the updated witchy lyrics go as follows:
“Why satan great ‘til he gotta be great? Book!
“I just took a DNA test, turns out I’m 100% that witch
“Even when I’m crying crazy
“Yeah, I got devil problems, that’s the bruja in me
“Bling bling, then I solve ‘em, that’s the sorceress in me
“You coulda had a bad witch super evil
“Help you with the underworld just a little
“You ‘posed to keep me down, but a virgins bringing me back
“Cause he found the candle ‘n lit the flame that’s black.
“Why Satan great ‘til he gotta be great?
“Don’t hex me, cast it straight to my face
“Sisters, round the cauldron we gather
“Life potion gonna make us younger
“Fresh photos with the bomb lighting
“New warlock from my Salem Sightings
“Truth hurts, need something more spellbinding
“Amuck, amuck, amuck amuck
“I’m no basic hag witch, I’m Winniewin’
“I think I smell children!
“We don’t walk we fly!

Justin and Jeremiah Raisen claimed to have written the lyric “I just took a DNA test turns out I’m 100% that…” with Lizzo in a recording session.
The singer has since said that they “did not help me write any part of the song”.
She added: “There was no-one in the room when I wrote Truth Hurts, except me, Ricky Reed, and my tears. That song is my life, and its words are my truth.”
But now, she has credited the writer of the meme that actually did inspire those lyrics.
“In 2017, while working on a demo, I saw a meme that resonated with me… I later used the line in Truth Hurts… I later learned that a tweet inspired the meme”, Lizzo tweeted.
“The creator of the tweet is the person I am sharing my success with…”
British singer Mina Lioness, who Lizzo was referring to, replied saying: “I want to publicly thank @Lizzo and her entire managment team for embracing me and reaching out.
“I have received nothing but love from her through our communications, so I truly do thank her.” |
A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away…flew a Millennium Falcon.
Surrounded on all sides by a 6-inch Darth Vader, Stormtrooper (he was kind of small for a stormtrooper) and Boba Fett the Falcon rattled and swooped and occasionally made a laser sound as it evaded capture before heading to do the Kessel Run in 12 parsecs. It was a beautiful sight as the old (brand new) rust bucket took on the Empire and various other assembled baddies that included two knights, a dinosaur and the cat (who was feigning interest I later found out, laugh it up fuzzball).
OK, so it wasn’t quite the Star Wars universe we were in, it was a family house in Oldham, but the young me was thrilled by my Star Wars presents. The Millennium Falcon (circa 1985) was a stunning piece of plastic manufacturing. The original trilogy (as we now must refer to them) were are their height and they influenced a whole generation of children as they have done ever since.
It’s difficult to get away from the sheer spread of publicity and comment as the NEW Star Wars film looms into view – the premiere is later this week. Official and unofficial social channels have been abuzz with previews, teasers and reaction, and a whole new generation of fans and children have all kinds of new ranges of merchandise at their fingertips.
The new Star Wars film, The Force Awakens, now under the stewardship of the Disney corporation, is expected to generate in the region of $3 billion in merchandise sales this year alone. A phenomenal figure when you consider that is the official merchandise figure. As always a whole industry has sprung up around “unofficial” merchandise, and with such a global phenomenon as Star Wars policing this rebel force will be difficult. There is no chance of wiping them out.
The nostalgia button is always pressed for me when Star Wars is mentioned, so when I came across pictures from an original 1985 Argos catalogue that was it…
It reminded me of Christmas’ and birthday’s past, sitting down with the Argos catalogue to mark up the numbers of the latest toys, often merchandised from the latest cartoon.
Indeed, Star Wars was one of the very first films to spark the now accepted connection between a film/TV/cartoon and merchandise. Writer and director, George Lucas, passed up a larger fee to write and direct the original film and instead took a share of the merchandise deal, which proved to be an inspired move. The studio, Fox, were happy with the deal as their previous attempt at merchandising for the original Dr Doolittle film had proved a disaster. Their lack of faith was disturbing, it was the foresight that was to Lucas’ benefit.
Kids big and small in 2015 won’t have the problem of a lack of choice when it comes to Star Wars merchandise. One look at the shelves in my local supermarket is enough to show that there are going to be a huge number of stocking fillers with a splash of lightsabers on them.
I am unapologetically a Star Wars fan and the Happy office has its fair share of fans, who like me, cannot wait for the new film. The Force is strong with us.
As for that original 1985 Millennium Falcon, it’s still at my parents’ house. There is no way that was ever going to the jumble sale!
May the Force be with you…always
ps. Yes, this piece is stuffed with Star Wars lines, re-read and enjoy.

Two hard-throwing, buzz-generating Astros prospects, Francis Martes and David Paulino, encapsulate how the Astros have taken a different approach to the game in a way that has nothing to do with the usual meme of analytics.
The Astros did not draft these pitchers, and numbers didn’t matter much, radar-gun readings aside. It’s about the design of a scouting system that got the right people to the right place, people who then made the right evaluations. In this case, one young scout named Alex Jacobs on the backfields of Florida served as the Astros’ eyes, under the supervision of the director of pro scouting, Kevin Goldstein.
And it’s about a general manager who, during his highly publicized rebuild, had reason to want players far away from contributing — and subsequently listened to his people on whom to target.
“I never heard of either of them when I was asking for them,” Astros GM Jeff Luhnow said of Martes and Paulino. “But I know ‘em now.”
The Astros traded then-closer Jose Veras to the Tigers in a deadline deal in July 2013, when the team was in full-scale, cut-throat demolish and rebuild mode.
By midseason in each of the next two years, Veras became Astros property again on the cheap, his contributions decent in 2014 in the big leagues, but limited to the minors this season. He was released from Class AAA Fresno right around this year’s deadline, coincidentally.
The Astros may well be regarded as the winners in the ’13 Veras deal, but not because they were able to get Veras back in subsequent seasons.
There was this unknown kid from the Dominican Republic they picked up off the backfields in the deal named Paulino. A righty who is now 21, Paulino had undergone Tommy John surgery very shortly before he was included in the the July 29, 2013, that sent Veras to the Tigers. And the Astros wanted the injured pitcher anyway.
Healthy now, Paulino has struck out 72 and walked 19 with a 2.81 ERA between Low and High Class A this season after beginning the year in extended spring training.
In 2014, the Astros pulled off a higher profile deal most literally at the last minute of the deadline with the Marlins, acquiring outfielder Jake Marisnick, third-base prospect Colin Moran and a future draft pick in a deal for Jarred Cosart and Kiké Hernandez.
There was one other player in the trade — the “throw-in,” if you will — a teenager named Martes. Astros personnel were excited about him at the time, but teams are almost always excited about players they acquire.
This enthusiasm was well founded.
A righty who is now 19, Martes is also from Dominican, and he’s making even greater waves than Paulino. The teenager’s already in Class AA Corpus Christi, with 98 strikeouts and 28 walks in 101 2/3 innings between three levels — not including extended spring, where he also started out.
The Astros have made their share of mistakes, as all clubs do, some notable. They’ve had victories as well, and the acquisition of these two pitchers show a different side of how the Astros’ outside-the-box thinking benefited them.
It was Jacobs’ reports that encouraged the Astros to trade for the pitchers, and it was Goldstein’s design that had Jacobs, 28, patrolling backfields. The Astros have a similar strategy in Arizona, where Aaron Tassano takes in games at team complexes.
The Astros aren’t the only organization watching the youngest, raw players, but it’s not a universal practice.
“When I hired Kevin, one of the things I asked him to do was think about what the right strategy should be for us given the fact that we were on a slightly longer time frame than other clubs,” Luhnow said. “Normally when you’re dealing players, I found this now being on the acquiring side, when you’re dealing players, the team wants players that are close to the major leagues back in return. Which is why we trade (Domingo) Santana and (Brett) Phillips and those types of guys.
“We were, we knew we were in a position where we had a lot of already interesting prospects at the upper levels and we could afford to take some fliers on some guys that were further away. And so when Kevin set up the department, he set it up in a way that was pretty balanced where scouting was across all levels and not necessarily focused on the upper levels.”
Jacobs, who covers part of the Florida State League as well as team complexes, and Goldstein deferred comment on this story to their superiors.
Working in baseball media for a decade with an emphasis on scouting and prospects before joining the Astros front office, Goldstein thought long about how he might do things differently given the chance to run a scouting department: how many looks to get on players, and on which types of players.
That strategy coincided with the Astros’ overall approach.
“And as a result of (Goldstein’s system), we had good reports on players that maybe another organization might not have even seen, or might have had only one report on,” Luhnow said. “Whenever you’re asking for the third player in the trade, and he’s a rookie ball player or a Low A ball player, those guys are far away. They’re — it’s like rolling the dice. But in the case of both Paulino and Martes, Kevin and his scouts did a tremendous job of identifying those guys.”
Martes, at 6-1, 225 pounds, is big bodied but that belies a free-and-easy delivery. He sits in the mid-90s — a couple ticks higher than Paulino — with a power breaking ball at 82-84 mph. His quick rise is an example of how the Astros are more comfortable promoting pitching prospects with speed than hitting prospects.
“For his age, 19 years old, he’s very ahead, speaking about maturity-wise,” Lancaster manager Omar Lopez said. “His stuff is so good. He’s got a power fastball, he has a nice and smooth arm action.
“Breaking ball, his out pitch right now — when that pitch is good in an outing, oh my God, he’s unhittable.”
Paulino, 6-7, has tossed 67 1/3 innings this season, well more than he had in his first three years in pro ball combined, from 2011-13.
Lancaster has been a bit of a struggle after he posted a 1.57 ERA at Quad Cities: he has a 5.22 ERA in the hitter-friendly California League. Fastball command will be key for him, and he’s not as polished as Martes, made evident by Martes’ arrival at Class AA at a younger age. Like Paulino, he throws a curveball and changeup.
But both pitchers are potentially big arms, and big boons for the Astros on the side of the ball they’re not best known for, pro scouting. |
So it’s been a while since I’ve posted, life happens. Any who..here is Trust Fund Broke’s Top 5 things you MUST clean this spring.
1. Your Closet – Now this may be obvious, but you need to get rid of that sweater that you haven’t worn since senior year. Plus, it is THE best de-stresser. I’m a little weird, but I organize my closet by season. I’m all about getting rid of old and in with new more fabulous stuff!
2. Your Car – Really underestimated. The trunk, middle console and glove compartment are all places we seem to use to hide our extra things. I personally hate getting into dirty cars. (Obviously, a couple papers here and there are fine) but I’m talking lazy people with the fast food garbage everywhere, unless we consumed that in the time of me being present in the car, I automatically think you’re disgusting.
3. Your Phone & Social Media Contacts – Okay, de-friend those people that aren’t even creep worthy (unless you do actually want them to see how fab your life is) and delete those contacts that have one name or “Adam from the Bar” unless you text him on a frequent basis I highly doubt he remembers you at all. Sorry hun. And the games, just de-app them.
4. Your Computer – Ahhh, you know ALL those funny Meme’s you saved to post to Facebook? Yeah, you probably forgot about them and now you have 30 pictures saved with LoL1 LOLOLOL and HAHAHAHA. Do some clean up and make your baby shine!
5. Makeup – Most makeups have a 6 month expiry date. Thats not long at all. Then, the air gets them and bacteria and causes infections and thats just gross. Wash your brushes regularly and replace that Mascara! |
While Throwback Thursdays are a funny way to relive some of the memories you’d rather forget, it’s important to remember that everything you put online (be it yesterday, last week or 10 years ago) is on there for everyone to see. Yes, even if you do have hectic privacy settings.
In an age where celebrities are stepping down from gigs because careless tweets have resurfaced after a decade (Kevin Hart, we’re looking at you), it’s never been more important to realise the consequences of your own digital footprint when it comes to your career. In fact a 2018 survey showed around 70% of employers will scope out the social media presence of potential candidates before hiring and almost half of all bosses regularly check their current employees’ digital antics.
So, if your digital footprint isn’t giving the best first impression, or if a light Face-stalk could put you in a compromising position, here are three easy steps to clean up your act.
It’s Time For A Cleaning Spree
First of all, you might like to get familiar with what your digital footprint consists of. While you may think you’re covered with your privacy settings, the best way to hide things you don’t want others to see is it to delete them entirely.
If you don’t know where to start, there are a host of apps, plug-ins and web tools to ruthlessly dispose of your past like Marie Kondo to a wardrobe. Try Cardigan for Twitter posts, which enables you to delete tweets between certain timeframes, right down to specific hashtags. You can also use TweetDelete to delete your tweets on a rolling basis, keeping your feed to as many tweets as you set it to.
For Facebook, Social Book Post Manager is a free Chrome plug-in that is essentially a robot that manually deletes your Facebook posts, four times faster than you could do yourself. You can even target specific words or names if you want to keep any jilted lovers off your digital footprint.
If you’re in a job already, take some time to check out your employer’s social media policy. Lots of employers have rules around posting pictures in company uniforms, about company matters or even just within the workplace.
The Proof Is In The Posting
Think of your digital footprint as the key to your personal brand. It’s not about ditching your online presence entirely, but about using it responsibly and respectfully. We have millions of thoughts every day and plenty of time to assess our actions before those thoughts travel down to your fingers and onto your keyboard. While it’s fine to post a picture of you enjoying a drink with friends (you’re human and so are recruiters), keep it to one early in the night and think about how impressive (or not) boasting about your hangover the next day might look.
Most of the time, hiring managers are typically doing a quick Google of potential candidates to get a feel for their personalities to determine who might be a good fit beyond being able to fulfil a job description.Make sure what you post and how you engage with social media is representative of the person you’ve made yourself out to be in job applications. If you’ve said you’re a great communicator and writer, for example, you’ll want to make sure your posts are articulate with correct spelling and grammar.
Finally, with endless ‘likes’ comes endless responsibility. Choosing to like a post, comment, image or page is effectively saying you endorse it and what it represents. Be wise and maybe hold off before the ‘like’ reflex takes over the next time you see a funny, but potentially offensive, meme.
Learn To Love LinkedIn
Social media isn’t the devil its been made out to be and just because the old you thought it was funny to post pictures of your bare bottom or with your stoned mate doesn’t mean your social media can’t be turned around and used for good. If you’re serious about landing a job you love, start being more active on platforms that support that dream.
LinkedIn is a great example. When it first launched, you probably thought of it as Facebook for old people, but the platform has come a long way and is a fantastic way to be spotted by recruiters and rebuild your digital footprint. This is one social profile you want to make as publicly visible as you can. Share insightful information about the industry you’re trying to get into, or TED talks that resonate with you.
Being active on social media, especially LinkedIn, Twitter and Facebook, in all the right ways enables you to control your first impression. Think about what you’d want your dream employer to see and if you feel like posting anything outside of that….don’t.

Okay, I give up. I'm afraid Friday Femmes Fatales is going to have to become an "occasional" series rather than a weekly one. (I'm going to aim for but not promise fortnightly.) I just can't spend any more hours at the computer than I do now. (But – small bribe – if you send in lots of nominations it could be more regular!)
Now that my little whinge is over, on to the ten great female bloggers with ten killer posts…
Regular readers will know I aim to promote women bloggers even when I don't necessarily agree with them, so I'll start with Jo22 on I Can't Fly, and her take on Jack Straw and the Muslim veil issue.
But I entirely agree with the sentiments of the blogger on Politics'n'Poetry, who highlights the environmental misdeeds of the Saskatchewan Power Corporation (Canada).
Staying green, Anna on Bitchinspin, who's obviously a far more serious cyclist than I, reports on a university free bike scheme. Amazingly it seems, they aren't being stolen!
I'm equally in tune with Kari on Thought Interrupted, who picked up and reshaped the currently popular meme to make it five things feminism still has to do.
Ronni Bennett (no relation, that I know of) on Time Goes By, subtitled "what it's really like to get older", wonders how plastic surgery comes into the 'women's health category', concluding "they’ll force us to become grotesque simulacra of youth to not offend their delicate sensibilities of what is attractive".
On the superb group blog Our Bodies Ourselves, Christine C. contemplates that old question: can men be feminists?. One powerful obituary certainly supports that possibility.
On another question that keeps being asked – what is university (college) for? – the Blue Gal provides some great stats, and interesting thoughts on the changing American experience.
Turning more personal, although still eminently political, Liz Connor reflects on being a teenage bulimic. She reflects how this is merely the other side of overeating: "With any addiction self-loathing and self-comfort become bound within a mutually sustaining, closed system."
After that, some healthy, sensible eating – Jennifershmoo on Vegan Lunch Box offers (with pictures) vegan bento. (I have to admit that after eating almost entirely vegan at the recent Green Party conference I felt remarkably healthy considering the other ways I was abusing my body – e.g. alcohol and lack of sleep. But still not sure I could stick it full time.)
Finally, to finish, the one post you really, really must read here – leave on an inspirational note: The Sappho Manifesto tells the story of Elizabeth "Lizzie" Jennings, a 24-year-old schoolteacher, and apparently unlikely revolutionary.
If you missed the last edition, it is on my home blog.
Please: In the next week if you read, or write, a post by a woman blogger and think “that deserves a wider audience” (particularly someone who doesn’t yet get many hits), drop a comment. It really does make my life easier. Or don’t be shy – nominate yourself! (Thanks to Penny and Val who sent in nominations this week.) |

The rules seem to give an OK game and I look forward to reading more AAR's in the future. Thanks Steve, I think these rules are like NT rules, a bit of a robust blank canvas to hang your own preferences on to.
I am trying to keep posts below words, this one was around I think. I note with some regret, but understanding that Jon on his blog is closing shop for a while, with a likely outcome that if he returns, he will scale back his posts.
I do get that. I know where he's coming from and have been thinking whether I should go shorter as per this AAR, which is just as effective as a long one for most games.
It would save me time and the reader too. Less is more? Thanks Michal, I think the randomised movement and reinforcement schedule will help it play a little differently each time.
Thanks, I was lucky, everything about the fences just seemed to work as each phase was completed. Great little action, Norm! You must know the rules by now- the nicest painted units always perform the worst on the table.
It's a standard thing in my games : I've tried to get my hands on the Firepower rules but can never find them on Ebay or anywhere else on the net.
I dont game 28mm so I'll never actually but them. I'm on a real ACW kick of late so these guys were great to see.
Much enjoyed battle report, sir! Thanks Steve, I also have some Peter Pig 15mm ACW on painting sticks, but pushed the 28's because they have simply been too long in the painting queue and they do look splendid.
I have never understood why the Perry's don't sell the rules on their site, even for just a token couple of pounds. A great looking little game, wonderful units Thanks Phil, it was nice to reach the point of having enough units to be able to do an official Perry scenario from the rulebook.
It seems to provide a good basis for tweaking with more units and extra terrain and even for moving to other periods. Congratulations on completing the battle box, a most enjoyable report too.
I had always wondered how the included rules played, they seem a fine basic set to play about with. Thanks Phil, the rules sit at the sort of Neil Thomas level, which is something I know we both appreciate Now for some Wars of the Roses Five years?
Not bad going then Norm : They all look splendid, I have long thought that set is a very good deal and have come close to ordering one several times but managed to resist.
That's my kind of game there, surprised it was only a 4 x 3. Yes, I was pleased by the table size working, it could easily have taken more units.

Bhumika Movie Review: Unlike other films, Rathindran R Prasad wants this horror film to work logically. So the characters in the movie are what ordinary, scared men do: run for life and safety.
The title of the image will appear on the screen with a bad background score. Who is that girl? Who drove the car? Why was he killed? He seemed like an ordinary man with no evil plans. After all, he is a meme creator, what harm could he have done to such a horrible and untimely death?
The questioner is not the villain. But we later found out that he had a role in destroying the planet. At least, that’s the basic feeling of this film. His death and some other deaths before and after him are a way of saving the earth.
I liked the way Rathindra tried to flip the angle of who is bad and who is not. Mind you, he tries to do it but never pulls it off. Deletes an hour in the early suspense film he created. Child psychologist Samyukta (Aishwarya Rajesh), her husband Kamdam (Vidu), their son Sindhu, her brother-in-law Aditi (Madhuri), and friend Gayathri (Surya Ganapathi) go to an area in the forest. Plan to build 500 luxury villas. Everything seems normal until nightfall.
Gayatri seems to be exchanging messages with a friend. She is happy to be reunited with an old friend. After some creepy WhatsApp news, she found out that friend Krishna – who had come from the initial scene crash – had been dead for hours now. That’s when things start to stumble a little.
Unlike other films, Rathindran wants this horror film to work logically. So the characters in the movie are what ordinary, scared men do: run for life and safety. But, the problem is, you can see Rathindra’s hand in every scene. The flow of the story does not feel natural and uninterrupted. The story is narrated in such a way that the audience should appreciate the fact that Rathindra respects logic. The invisible subtext reads, “Look, the characters can’t escape the house for this reason. It’s not because they’re dumb like in other movies.” In this attempt to maintain logic, he loses plot fluid.

In the eyes of the left white supremacy is somehow worse than any other racial supremacy
Exactly, I am tired of hearing them cry "white supremacy" whites are fucking most tolerant skin coloured people
I must say I prefer rather to have Nationstate pride but ethnic pride in the same whatever the scale.
Kim Kardashian have two sisters and she and them all date blacks wtf (kanye west is cool tho)
Next time I see a burka I will pull it off the wearer, if her husband decides to attack me I will hit him so hard so he will think his non-existent god has betrayed him
Myth claims he thinks Michelle Obama looked better than Melania
unfortunately most pro weed movements are leftie fucks
but how can we tell someone is high if driving? they can test it with alcohol
being all like "DON'T GENERALIZE" is more of a liberal thing
who are like believing in complete individualism or whatever
the left usually goes against leftie values, they barely even know their own spectrum
few examples, american left is pro islam but anti christianity, better left is anti- ALL religion.
Being leftie to the degree of several European countries is considered radical in America lol
Liberals are Islamic not commies ffs
There is different movements of enemies for sure but I don't believe in "enemy of my enemy is my friend"
Islamists and commies fight each other but I hate both
I talked to several once before lol
this is the largest trump supporter discord server.
well it was until you repealed and replaced it lol
you repealed and replaced Trumpcare
we should swap colour code on the red pill thing, Republican should be blue and Dixiocrat red, red is communist colour
It's ironic the left is so eager to first see Religion and culture disappear but they surely demand gay marriage.. Why do they even give two shits about marriage in the first place ?
there is simply no reason to force churches to accept gay marriage.
otherwise I wouldn't give two fucks about gay marriage
they can have gay marriage in mosques lol
Imo this server needs a better name
The corporate jews are only like 30 people out of millions of jews but they still do damage like crazy
Mohammad wasn't a good muslim so it's true
I would never vote for Hillary clinton
Being a Muslim in Europe must be great, you can rape the hottest girls you see if you want and no jail...
Americans with croatian dna are trump supporters lol
Sweden is lost and Muslims have won it
Swedes will eventually loose authority, be invaded and bred out of existence
Sweden brings trouble on themselves if they dont vote for their democrats
I would bring a gun and gun down the invaders, if my people dies whoever vitneses will die with it
Muslims can be white lol but you missed the point @Mjold Böns
Californians should be raped by muslims
@Mjold Böns Btw mass rape can be used as a tactic for genocide
A fat man does the nazi salute in virginia: everyone freaks out, jihadist kills 100+ in paris: oh no that is just not dangerous, you will rather die by falling out of your bath!
European countries should be ethno-states imo
You need to work to loose weight, not just blame white hetrophile men
The great thing about guns is it's now impossible to occupy America and Switzerland
I am so happy atm, the welfare that my country gave to child refugees suddenly went bankrupt yesterday and some refugees are almost starving, I bet those fuckers now regret having so many kids.
from now on rapefugees either work and contribute or they keep starving, their choice
tbh I consider voting for far left because I know they would inevitably bankrupt the welfare state
take in ukranian refugees? Merkel: no they are whites, we need non-whites in Europe right?
liberals never really become happy with Trump no matter what he does, if he cures cancer they will find a way to hate him.
<@301964089750716416> Me a liberal? don't joke around please.
but you gotta make some logic, liberal men don't look for women because they are gay.
West Virginia and Mississippi are the best states in America
tbh I don't give a shit of other's religions as long as they let me keep mine
If someone wants to be atheist i don't care, sure all leftie are atheist but not all atheist means leftie
Exactly the pope needs to call out islam
Secretly the Green party really wants all humans extinct, starting with the white race
They want the earth to be controlled by animals
Would be nice, Antifa should occupy cells in jails and less votes for democrats
Antifa in Germany or France is the worst tho
Well I guess it has existed as long as fascism, it had opposition back in Italy
Well you know what, absolutely ALL left-wingers are stupid, ever George W. Bush is better than ALL lefties, no righties can do wrong
Russian americans voted for donald trump
Tennesse voted for bill clinton twice
The best states in america are west wirginia and Mississippi
Bernie Sanders great state of Vermont
I was in the Jacob K. Javits' convention center on election night, I was there to watch Clinton supporters cry
No they fucking turned off the coverage so I watched from phone and it ran out
Doesn't show all tho, I heard some people saying they saved up to move to canda
TYT's election coverage was fantistic tbh
You can't be an Islamic "scholar" because scholarship requires you to read more than just one fantasy book
Remember to punch and isis members, my definition of that is anyone leftie or Islamic
Stand up and be counted show the world that you're a man, stand up and be counted, go with the KKK!
Future of Saudi Arabia: women all become feminists, men become gay, birthrate goes down, they need immigrants to get labour, they elect a liberal government and a war breaks out in Ukraine, they decide to take in a billion refugees from Ukraine so they constantly rape saudi women and take jobs from arab men, they all live off of welfare state and eventually breeds out the arabs
Ukranians start a website named "bleached.com" of white men fucking women of colour
Riced sounds more like smacking someone's butt
Asian men have small dick sterotype tho so they not as lucky as blacks
Lesbian porn? Or someone trying to chase a cat
Okay it's enough one person telling me lol
@Maddy You can lead a protest, I'm leading a country
America should join the European union
That is honestly like me when I try to sleep
In fact feminists need hotdogs, they NEED but they can't get
But george bush won again in 2004 so that was good?
Liberals act like racism is only bad when whites do it or somehow worse than black supremacy
But looks amazing after trump's terms
Tbh trump should call himself a savior and take in like all refugees from ukraine
Because he gets more votes and it bleaches america more
I call myself a genius now, provoke russia to war in ukraine and take in millions of ukrainian immigrants, you get: a more bleaches america, more trump votes, hot girls and vodka
Do you people want america to leave nato?
Imo we should keep reforming it and turn it into right-wing favour
In europe you have the war start soon
Europe is not lost you yanks mark these words
Yeah but we will take them back, ifthey refuse to protect it then we will do it for them
We can't let Muslims gain a single foothold
@Gunslinger Jump off a cliff kind sir
Europeans could still just nuke arabia off the map but they dont
@Gunslinger So you want to rather see muslims take europe?
They have nationalist govenrment now
@Gunslinger I agree, there is no hope in western europe.. For muslims!
America getting involved was kinda good but not always
America was originally where europe threw their trash, mostly poor people sent there
Well it has some truth to it, we threw our trash and the trash became rcher than us
At least greeks hate it as much as us to have muslims
Meme an Obama? @Deleted User 904fdf23
My friend actually looks completely like a chimp with his hairstyle
This music sucks but I am forced to listen to it
Lauren Southern is leftie who gets blacked daily in secret, she gets thrown piss at by ugly feminists and she enjoyed it, stop watching reebel media guys!!!
Women need men they can't go without
You can't go without men! (Im a sexist you see)
Women who sleep with blacks should be hung
White boy are the stringest, smartest and most masculine
My cousin got raped by some morroccan trash
Africans make mud food so of course sub human
Obama is proof blacks shouldnt vote
Men can't be men if they arent ugly and women cant be women if they arent beautiful
Hmm.. Yeah most olds voted for trump
@Deleted User 904fdf23 Prove it, show your pussy
No take it as a compliments, I take higher expectations from someone to prove they are males
Okay I am pissed at myself, I made myself sound like a gay
Balls touch the ground and they freeze instead
I think it's masturbate to text or some shit
I did that on omegle and pretended to be a girl and a dude got his rocks off then I showed myself
It's easy if you go to lesbian chat or some shit
I got guns in case of gehovas vitneses
Annoying fucks, I shot a bird only tho so I could have it stop eating apples

This is a weekly meme for all you ‘page surfers’ out there!
THE AUDACITY OF SARA GRAYSON by JOANI ELLIOTT
KINDLE 50% – CHAPTER 24
From: Anna-Katherine Green
To: Sara Grayson
Date: Sunday, July 28, 11:43 AM
Subject: Times reporter
The Times reporter showed up at my house yesterday. I didn’t let him in, but I talked to him on my porch. I know it’s not protocol, but I was curious. He said he talked to a former secretary at Thornton Books in London, the publisher of Silence in Stepney, you know, Meredith Lamb’s book? The secretary claims she knows both Meredith Lamb and Dad’s sister, Mary Grayson. Apparently the three were close friends. The woman insists Mum’s first book was plagiarized. She says she can prove it. Meredith is bound by the nondisclosure clause when she settled with Mum, but I don’t think Mary is. We could try and find her. Maybe she would answer some questions.
Cartwright wants to go public with the new claims, but I think he’s looking for more solid evidence before he does that.
Don’t you find it strange that we hardly know Dad’s sister? Mum always said that Mary wanted nothing to do with the family and that she moved to Australia right after Dad died. I have vague memories – picking up fall leaves with her when we were little and her bringing us Pixy Stix.
So, you have taken a look, would you read the book?
Let me know what you think in the comments section below.
Just to give you an extra helping hand to make your mind up, let’s take a look at the book’s premise.
THE AUDACITY OF SARA GRAYSON
What happens when the world’s greatest literary icon dies before she finishes the final book in her best-selling series?
And what happens when she leaves that book in the hands of her unstable, neurotic daughter, who swears she’s not a real writer?
Sara Grayson is a thirty-two-year-old greeting card writer about to land the toughest assignment of her life. Three weeks after the death of her mother—a world-famous suspense novelist—Sara learns that her mother’s dying wish is for her to write the final book in her bestselling series.
Sara has lived alone with her dog, Gatsby, ever since her husband walked out with their Pro Double Waffle Maker and her last shred of confidence. She can’t fathom writing a book for thirty million fans—not when last week’s big win was resetting the microwave clock.
But in a bold move that surprises even herself, Sara takes it on. Against an impossible deadline and a publisher intent on sabotaging her every move, Sara discovers that stepping into her mother’s shoes means stumbling on family secrets she was never meant to find—secrets that threaten her mother’s legacy and the very book she’s trying to create.
