Senator Mitch McConnell receiving medical care after being admitted to hospital
He was a pioneer of evil. This guy dumped his political feaces all over America; Trump just smeared it all over the walls. Sooner he’s forgotten about, the better.

He is fundamentally incapable of understanding any breed of redneck culture, with maybe the sole exception of the ones who go yuppie and develop a complete lack of taste. But who am I kidding few if any of my kin have even the mildest respect for themselves.

I see no goal post here. That argument was true when it came to game playing. Tic-tac-toe, then checkers, then chess, then go, then Jeopardy… The bar kept getting raised because we kept saying yes there’s an intelligent game called x and once we beat it that is a sign of intelligence. No one ever claimed that these word salad generating, suda racist, plagiarism machines that are frequently wrong were actual AGI. If a goal post is to be established, it’s got to be much more robust than the bullshiy that we’re seeing now. When you said “Is AI or isn’t AI”… people are welcome to say these things but ML is firmly in the actual field of AI, so those arguments don’t actually matter.

Not remotely. I had an indoor vented heated dryer and needed a huge dehumidifier running all the time. It actually just evaporated the water inside too, and made it even more humid. It DID catch the lint though, and I feel like the water helped with that. I would recommend against one that was permanently mounted to the wall, like the one that was linked. Wall mounting is fine, but you’re gonna need to give it a good clean every few loads. It’s gonna get nasty.
I think you are thinking of belt loaders, which have a long flat bed on them. Except, BAM - it’s not a flat bed, it’s a moving conveyor belt that is raised to carry the bags and cargo from those carts into the plane. Unless you’re thinking of something else. But I think you’re thinking of something like this:
Four migrant workers – Ullah Ismat Qiemi, Safi Iayjad, Amin Fazal Khogjani, and Waseem Khan – were burned alive in a car for demanding the regularization of their work at the beginning of June in Amendolara, Italy. “They were farmhands working in our fruit and vegetable harvests, exploited like slaves,” the Calabria chapter of left party Potere al Popolo stated. “When they found the courage to rebel and demand a proper contract, they were punished in a horrific manner: the gangmasters trapped them inside a car at a rest stop near Cosenza and set it on fire.” The event was caught on camera and expanded upon by Mohammad Taj Alamyar, a fifth worker who survived the attack. In his testimony, he described the coercive conditions in which he and his comrades were forced to live, including unstable housing, delayed payments, and the absence of working contracts. According to the trade union confederation CGIL, up to 12,000 farm workers in the region of Calabria alone might be exposed to similar treatment – which allows large companies to save on labor costs and increase profits.

These gangmasters can deduct rent and transportation costs from the workers’ already low daily wage, keeping them in a constant state of need, CGIL warned. Potere al Popolo’s Giuliano Granato emphasizes the model is present not only in agriculture, where it is perhaps most notorious, but also in sectors like construction and textile production, spanning across the whole country. While the workforce used to comprise Italian workers, it now consists largely of migrants from countries including India, Bangladesh, and Afghanistan. While technically workers arrive in Italy legally, Granato told BreakThrough News, they are exploited from their very first moments there. “To reach Italy in the first place, workers and their families are forced to take on debts. When they arrive here, they have to pay off these debts – only to often discover that the companies they were told about may not even exist or do not want to employ them, and they end up in a slavery-like situation.” The caporalato system is illegal in Italy, but trade unions warn that the implementation of legislation remains lacking. And when cases of extreme violence turn public attention to specific workers exploited under this model, rarely does the discussion address responsibility beyond the gangmaster level. Potere al Popolo insists it is crucial to move beyond this as the investigation of Qiemi, Iayjad, Khogjani, and Khan’s murder unfolds. “The two men who murdered the four farmhands were gangmasters who profited at the expense of these workers, but they were the second-to-last link in the chain,” Granato says. “Who is above them? Which companies did they work for? Which farms did they harvest strawberries on? We need to go all the way up the chain.” Read more: Thousands protest against war and cost of living crisis in Italy The response to the murder has also unmasked institutional duplicity, Granato points out. “I’m comparing the institutional reaction to the one we observed in Modena, when a 31-year-old man, an Italian citizen born to a Moroccan family, drove his car into a crowd, sending several people to the hospital. Both Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and President Sergio Mattarella rushed to the city.” “In the case of Amendolara, no one went. These four murdered farmworkers clearly do not deserve institutional outrage.” The popular response differed from the institutional one, although anti-migrant narratives and the short time allocated to organizing a local demonstration on June 6 likely impacted participation. However, in the general population “there was a great deal of outrage over this murder, over this barbarity – because not only were four people killed, but they were killed in a barbaric manner, burned alive and locked up,” Granato says. In the aftermath of the workers’ murder, Potere al Popolo and other progressive organizations are demanding a comprehensive response to the system enabling this type of crime. “Calabria cannot continue to be plagued by these atrocities as if they were natural, inevitable occurrences unrelated to politics,” Potere al Popolo Calabria wrote ahead of the protest. “They are not. They have a name: caporalato, institutional racism, class exploitation.” Ana Vračar , June 12, 2026 From BT News via This RSS Feed.
Duration - 22:20 [a video about Cuba from the news collective Belly Of The Beast] U.S. politicians have been waging a war against Cuba’s medical missions for years. During the second Trump administration, with Marco Rubio as Secretary of State, this war has escalated. Since 2025, at least eight countries have announced they will no longer facilitate Cuba’s medical missions due to U.S. pressure. The U.S. calls Cuba’s medical missions “forced labor,” without providing evidence to back the claim. The Cuban government calls the doctors heroes. Cuban doctors volunteer to go on international missions, where they are paid many times more than what they make in Cuba. Cuban medical workers have served on international cooperation missions in more than 150 countries since the 1960s, usually working with populations that would otherwise not have access to care. A Belly of the Beast team traveled to Calabria, Italy, to talk to the Cuban doctors themselves.

Officials in several cities joined advocacy groups in celebrating a federal court ruling Friday that blocked the Trump administration’s rule which, they argued in a lawsuit, illegally imposed new fees and created barriers “that would make it harder—and in some cases impossible—for people to get and keep affordable health insurance.” The cities of Columbus, Ohio; Baltimore; and Chicago were among the plaintiffs in a case filed last week in the US District Court of Maryland against Health and Human Services Secretary Robert F. Kennedy and other Trump officials, arguing that the so-called “Marketplace Integrity and Affordability” rule would destabilize the insurance market and penalize vulnerable families, “rather than promoting affordability.” The rule was introduced in May, months after Affordable Care Act subsidies that had made ACA insurance premiums more affordable for millions of people were allowed to expire by Republicans in Congress. More than 1 million fewer Americans signed up for coverage in ACA exchanges after the tax credits expired, and the Trump administration claimed that the new rule’s provision of more “catastrophic” insurance plans would give more “choice” to people who couldn’t afford plans that cover more healthcare needs. The rule also required additional verification for low-income households before they enroll in ACA plans, with Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services Administrator Mehmet Oz claiming the new requirement “strengthens eligibility checks, cracks down on abuse, and gives insurers more flexibility to offer affordable, consumer-focused coverage options.” “Cloaked in the pretense of government efficiency and fraud prevention, the 2026 rule creates numerous barriers to affordable insurance coverage." The verification requirements and new fees could cause as many as 2 million people to drop their coverage, said Democracy Forward, which represented the plaintiffs, as well as raising annual costs by about $700 for families. “Cloaked in the pretense of government efficiency and fraud prevention, the 2026 rule creates numerous barriers to affordable insurance coverage, negating the ACA’s goal of extending affordable health coverage to all Americans, and instead increasing the population of underinsured and uninsured Americans,” the plaintiffs said in the lawsuit. In the ruling on Friday, US District Judge Brendan Hurson vacated several provisions of the rule, including ones that revoked guaranteed insurance coverage for people with past-due premiums; required eligibility verification for the special ACA enrollment period; and imposed a $5 premium penalty on people who automatically reenrolled in their plans. Columbus City Attorney Zach Klein said the rule’s provisions were among “the Trump-Vance administration’s illegal attempts to undermine the Affordable Care Act.” “This ruling is a significant win for millions of Americans, including thousands in Ohio, who would have been denied coverage or seen their out-of-pocket costs skyrocket due to this president and his administration," said Klein. "We will continue to fight to protect healthcare coverage for all Americans whenever it’s threatened.” Richard Trent, executive director of Main Street Alliance, a small business advocacy group that also joined the lawsuit, said that “the Trump-Vance administration’s unlawful attempt to undermine the Affordable Care Act would have increased costs, created unnecessary barriers to coverage, and made it harder for entrepreneurs and workers to get the care they need.” “Small business owners cannot grow their businesses when healthcare becomes more expensive and less accessible,” said Trent. “We are grateful that the court has protected these critical safeguards and reaffirmed that affordable healthcare remains essential to a strong economy and thriving Main Streets across the country.” Baltimore Mayor Brandon Scott also applauded the ruling, but emphasized that healthcare advocates’ “work is not over.” As Common Dreams reported Friday, tied up in the Trump administration’s push for more Americans to use high-deductible catastrophic insurance—which is likely to present families with high out-of-pocket costs—is a plan to push households into more medical debt by allowing them to take out loans directly from their health insurance companies. “We will continue to fight back against any attempts by this administration to slash protections under the ACA," said Scott, "and will not stop fighting until every person in this nation has access to the affordable, quality healthcare they deserve.” From Common Dreams via This RSS Feed.
I feel like the contrast of these posts really exemplify it. I don’t fucking care about the white house ufc arena I just don’t fucking care. No one is going to make me care about such a frivilous fucking spectacle. I’m so tired
Football governing body Fifa has removed Somali referee Omar Abdulkadir Artan from the 2026 World Cup officiating roster after American authorities denied him entry into the country, ending what would have been the first World Cup finals appearance by a Somali match official. Artan, the Confederation of African Football’s men’s referee of the year in 2025, was barred from entering the US at Miami International Airport and is currently in Turkey. US immigration authorities have not publicly provided a reason for the decision. In a statement, Fifa said Artan would be unable to participate in the tournament after discussions with US authorities.

Here we have 20km/h on e-scooters (and non-pedal stuff like hoover boards etc) and e-bikes 25km/h. - I think that works really good. Sure, I would like more than 20kmh on my e-scooter, but when walking I am sure glad they don’t go faster when they pass me by.

Asking is probably not usual. Some scientists do their thesises through seeing the result first. It’s different to imagine something internally than to “go to”/“get” something else, the latter being something that someone else knows as well rather than self-born. Although I guess one could expand to the thought that everything internal ultimately is everything external yada yada

This is a good one. I praise the person who designed these ones by the way because the middle piece is so easy to access and see what you’re doing when you need to change a light bulb. I legitimately hate whoever designed the ones with the 3 screws around the cover instead.

Unless I’m actively taking a picture I have all the camera permissions disabled and the lenses covered with foil stickers. On my last phone I straight up deleted the camera app (still covered the lenses with stickers tho) and would download one whenever I had to take photos and delete it again after. I can’t remember why I stopped doing that actually, maybe the camera app I liked that had none of that tracking shit, got removed or something, idk.

If it makes you feel any better, they don’t check the contacts you make every week. They don’t have the resources to do it even if they wanted to. I’ve been applying to jobs now for more than three years, and I’ve gotten three interviews and have submitted hundreds of applications. It’s no longer efficient to apply to ones that want fan fiction about what it would be like to work for the company in the form of cover letters, so I just don’t apply to those ones.
