OZZY OSBOURNE Admitted He Was “Scared” To Move Back To The UK – “I’m So Used To Being Over Here Now But I’ve Got To Go Back”; Video
I just met on a one way street in #Chicago with an #activist who gave me these #posters and #stickers out of the back of his car.
He's spending $10s of thousands on making prints for protests. But he needs #artists and #graphicdesign folks. His high-end professional contacts are #scared to provide designs because of their ties to big tech, etc. 80% ghosted him. Please boost and reply with #poster designs he can use.

The Most #Remarkable Part of the #Video of a #Bishop #Confronting the #Trump #Family.
Noting how he had told the #nation during his #swearingin that he had “felt the providential hand of a loving #God,” by virtue of his #surviving two #assassination #attempts, Budde invoked the #compassion and #mercy of God as she called on Trump “to have mercy upon the people in our country who are #scared now.”

Actually contemporary late #capitalism / #neofeudalism being just totally obsessed with deleting every reference to alternatives to it, kinda gives me hope.

Another #arthurRackham picture; i have a few books that he illustrated, and his illustrations are now out of copyright.
Alas, they are all (if in colour) printed with the four-colour process, which actively resists scanning. I’ve wondered about training an “AI”, although others have reported poor results.
Anyway, here is Adrtift, from The Snow Queen.

I am #scared, I #worry about the #future. What, if....?
Do you know these thoughts?
There is consent among Psychologists and Psychotherapists that #stoicism is a major tool in #selfcare
You can practice stoicism if you find out, what is really in your radius of influence. Can you change your neighbour? Can you change the weather?
You can: Change your perspective, your attitude and get active.

That was an enjoyable 2-minute takedown of the Golden Spoon Bully by Dave Bautista.
Who votes for the scared weak guy with a tummy full of 'buttermilk'?
I don't understand what I'm feeling. Depression? Exhaustion? Heartbreak? Maybe even fear? Dissatisfaction? Something just isn't quite right. I'm not sure what to do about it because I don't know what it is. It's so subtle I can hardly hear it but it's constantly there. Been going on for days, I think even weeks.

As Donald #Trump returned to Michigan to speak about crime, he deliberately #ignored #the #truth:
Crime is down.
Standing under a banner that read “Make America Safe Again” on Tuesday,
Trump spoke about law and order and a so-called “Kamala crime wave”
occurring at levels “nobody has ever seen before.”
But when journalists tried to ask him about that claim, #he #got #scared.
According to The Detroit News, the Trump team had originally agreed to sit down for an interview with their newspaper Tuesday.
However, after reporters pushed the former president about spreading lies about Michigan’s crime data, “a campaign aide said the presidential candidate no longer had time for an interview after the speech.”
Data from the Federal Bureau of Investigation doesn’t show any crime wave phenomenon.
In the two years since the former president left office, violent crime has continued to drop and return to pre-pandemic levels.
Michigan specific data also fails to show any spike in violent crime under a Democratic administration.
Homicides in Detroit are down to their lowest total since 1966, according to police data reviewed by The Detroit News.
️But Trump doesn’t want to talk about that. So much so that he’s dodging interviews with local journalists about crime.
“Facts don’t matter when it comes to him,” Democratic state Representative Tyrone Carter, a former sheriff, told TheDetroit News. “It’s about telling a story that benefits you"

"Why the “weird” attack is working"
by Mother Jones

Quote by MJ:
"Aug 3, 2024
In this week’s video for Mother Jones, Kat Abughazaleh@katmabu breaks down the Democrats' latest attack line: calling out Republicans as "weird." The recent embrace of the word “weird” started with potential VP candidate Gov. Tim Walz of Minnesota, who used it on MSNBC's "Morning Joe" to describe JD Vance, President Trump, and the out-of-touch policies of MAGA types: “These guys are just weird!"
It's getting under the skin of Trump and his allies. While they argue this insult is on par with Hillary Clinton’s infamous “basket of deplorables,” let’s be real: This isn’t about name-calling for its own sake. Who in their right mind wants to eliminate the Department of Education or inspect kids before they play sports? That's just weird. Defunding libraries and banning no-fault divorce? Also weird.
"Constantly talking about genitals, having an opinion about skull size, and burning books in the 21st century?" Kat says. "All of that is indisputably weird."
Ultimately, "weird" is about framing the debate in a way that cuts through the noise and speaks directly to what most people already feel: That Trump's agenda for the Republican party and the country is all a bit… weird.
