That’s really nice. I wish I could write a letter to thank Japan. Thank you for thinking of us Japan. ❤️

Doch Dicker Chungus! Dicker Chungus! Dicker Chungus!

I thought we already proved multiple times that work from home clearly increased productivity across the board and reduced costs for the employ and employer.

The push to go back to an office is more about control. Not in a “I need to get my money out of you and make sure you’re ‘working’” but in a “I would rather spend more money to remind my workers that if they work for me—they are owned.”

It feels more like an issue with worker flexibility than worker productivity. Workers having a life and workers being happy means that they will eventually want other things. And usually those “other things” eventually lead to the owners losing a grip on societal and economic power.

Better to have workers not be people. People are unpredictable and profits need to predictably rise forever.

I’ve done deep dive on making cosmetics and soap. Dove is not “soap.” Dove Beauty Bar is made with a synthetic detergent (“SYNDET”). True soap needs saponification. So, your theory was correct. :)

You should read the motion. The motion to suppress isn’t based mistaken identity or identity. The Motion is based around how officers detained/seized the Defendant and items unlawfully. Officers did not give the Defendant the ability to leave (seizure) which means their actions rise to an “investigative detention.” This is a violation of the 4th Amendment and the 14th amendment.

The Officers detained the Defendant to Interrogate him and because he was not free to leave, the should have Mirandized him at that point. The Officers failed to Mirandize the Defendant during a custodial interrogation which is a violation of the 5th Amendment.

While I don’t think it was in the PA Defense filing: at one of the hearings there was questions about the chain of custody of the backpack. This could also lead to suppression of evidence (as I believe the gun wasn’t found until after the police took the bag to the station—but I can’t find the source that mentioned this fact now so I’m not sure if this specific facts is accurate anymore).

Supply for high quality white sand used for almost all glass making will be exhausted in 2037, according to British Geologist Michael Welland.

There will be a point in the near future where recycling glass will be less expensive than sourcing high quality sand.

Hmmm then we are deeper into this than the world has realized. I think the gilded sheen is still there—but the rot underneath is deeper than the outside thinks.

Meaning, the mass protests that broke out in the millions across the country from 2017 to 2020–that era was the “protest era.”

What are we in now? Sure as hell not a protest era. We are way beyond.

As someone who has closely studied the evolution of spycraft from Ancient Intelligence to the development of the modern Intelligence Community—I know that because of my knowledge—I feel exactly as you say here. If I am taken out now for being too open or too loud, the side of humanity loses me in the fight. And it is so god damn easy to misstep.

We are and have been under massive constant surveillance. The facial scanning at airports has expanded to the physical border if you’re crossing by land. They say they delete your photo—but I assume they’re instead storing the biometrics. This is and will be used against us.

The tech companies in control know most of us better than we know ourselves. We are tracked every second of every day. They don’t need warrants when they already have access to profiles of data on almost every human in America. Even if we were in a normal world—the constitution generally doesn’t apply to private corporations. This is and will be used against us.

There is no safety “protesting” or organizing unless it’s done in a tight, cell operations that have some communication in between but function so that if one goes down the network stays intact. Intelligence and resistance groups survive when they’re federated.

Master’s tools cannot dismantle the master’s house. Organizing on a mass scale across the country without using any tech that touches our adversaries right now is not possible. So, first we must figure out how to share information quickly and easily in a way that excludes big tech capture and government capture.

Figuring this independent communication hurdle out is more important right now than getting out on the street with a geotagged phone and smiling for a drone who is sure to snag your biometric data. And I’m saying this as someone who believes in the people protesting (and who has been in full scale car tipping rubber bullets everything on fire riots).

Great point. I’d argue that an extension of individualism is consumption.

What was the majority positive response to Luigi? Consumption.

People asked where to buy stickers and T-shirts. T-shirts.

I’ve got a friend in Quebec that told me that they’d “wish Trump would hurry up already and make Canada the 51st state.” I also know a Canadian trucker that joined the line during that trucker protest over…whatever it was they thought they were protesting.

I was in Düsseldorf recently and met a UK resident (fluent in German) who was nuts for Musk.

It’s a problem that has spread to many other countries. In fact, I’d argue that right wing populism is all part of the same swing and it’s only the most cartoonishly evil in America.

Like, look, take my rights but Leave me my liquor (leave us our liquor!)

I know about mixing the yellow dots by adding mode. But Erased? Do you have any resources I could learn from?

Do you know anything about printer steganography? That’s what nailed Reality Winner ultimately.

I have been wondering the same thing. It would be useful to have an active docket of the DOJ for all cases against large corporations and how many now lose steam or have the lead attorneys replaced.

I also worry about the whistleblower program. If you are a corporate whistleblower, if the government wins on your tip you get around 15%-ish of the takings. So, whistleblowing on something big enough can net you a few million USD or more. Something else to watch. I assume this will break quickly too under this administration.

Yo check this new theory out. Might want to change your IP.

Interesting. Hey thanks for the information. It seems if someone gets a DM they get more than one sent.

So, you might be right in that you were specifically sent a spam—maybe because you angered the Nicolegod

We’ll see! I hope the rest of your week is Nicole free! 👍

Interesting. Links to a go fund me are theorized to be interlopers or maybe people just using this to try to get money—as it deviates from the original iteration.

Do you happen to know the username? The naming scheme also changed in the past few days when the new asking for money showed up.

If not that’s ok. 👌

Might be because of your instance. I still haven’t gotten one.

There’s been no evidence of this leading to a scam — romance or otherwise. So, now it’s a theory that this poor woman is most likely not aware and possibly being blackmailed.

I was just memeing but the “rare” part more seriously would be a new photo drop that we haven’t had before. The newest photo is her looking down. All of the photos increasingly look like a hacked feed of a real person who is unaware they’re having their photo taken.

The drive behind collecting information is more from a benevolent stance of trying to warn this real person irl that her likeness is being exploited.

If it’s a rare Nicole you have to post it that’s the rules now. You have to. Promise if it’s a rare Nicole you’ll post. PROMISE

You only attended one? You must be less smart by your standard.
