"Europe just canceled $25B in US military deals. NATO allies are planning to replace American l'ship. Japan, France & the UK are prepping deployments w/o us. And now Trump says allies only get ‘toned-down’ jets bc ‘someday they’re not our ally.'
News flash: They’re already walking away."

#nonce is two separate nouns:
Nonce (1) means: The one or single occasion; the present reason or purpose.
(Etymology 1 is inherited from Middle English nonse, nones.)
Nonce (2, in Britain and Ireland) means: A sex offender, especially one who perpetrates against children.
(Etymology 2 is dated 1975, in British criminal slang.) French equivalent: #pointeur

Обожаю, блин, людей, которые кого-то репортят без пруфов и пишут в комменте что-нибудь вроде "расизм", "фашизм", "сексизм".
А ты потом идёшь, листаешь последние несколько дней активности пользователя и там нихера нет. Ну то есть там есть какие-нибудь срачи где кто-то с кем-то не согласен, но не более.
Иногда кажется, что в феди не хватает системы репутации как в каком-нибудь Counter-Strike, где если ты репортишь регулярно нормальных игроков, то твоим репортам просто придётся пониженный вес.
С другой стороны, конечно, тут бы это не сильно помогло - только от "добропорядочных дураков".
А жаль.
One of my #punk #SocialMedia #bucketlist goals for the #Fediverse is to have the #reputation, consisting of #promise and delivery, that results in a banner on a Sunday morning talk show which labels me “generalist who goes down rabbit-warrens and coined #RevolutionWillBeMemeticized”

Over last few weeks Europeans have gone from shock 2 bewilderment to revulsion. This period was 4 them what 9/11 was for us the stripping away of illusions, the exposure of an existential threat. Europeans have realized that America, the nation they thought was their friend is actually a rogue superpower.

"Capitalism and extreme poverty: A global analysis of real wages, human height, and mortality since the long 16th century
[…]
• Data on real wages suggests that, historically, extreme poverty was uncommon and arose primarily during periods of severe social and economic dislocation, particularly under colonialism.
• The rise of capitalism from the long 16th century onward is associated with a decline in wages to below subsistence, a deterioration in human stature, and an upturn in premature mortality.
• In parts of South Asia, sub-Saharan Africa and Latin America, wages and/or height have still not recovered."

The only political party brand worse than Republican Party is the Democratic Party.
A brand is a reputation.
A reputation consists of “promise” and “delivery”.
One brand promises and delivers, even if the promise is awful, and the delivery is cruel.
The other does…neither.
The two most precious things on this side the grave are our reputation and our life. But it is to be lamented that the most contemptible whisper may deprive us of the one, and the weakest weapon of the other. A wise man, therefore, will be more anxious to deserve a fair name than to possess it, and this will teach him so to live as not to be afraid to die.

The commitment to collaborate
https://aeon.co/essays/commitment-and-cooperation-a-coevolutionary-relationship
#Cooperation isn't just about immediate benefits, but about creating future opportunities through:
#Signaling intent to collaborate
Building #reputation
Creating social consequences for not following through
How did we get here? A step-by-step evolution:
Early group hunting required coordination
Successful hunts depended on mutual #trust
#Reputation became crucial for future interactions
Language emerged and made more complex commitments possible.
We learned to make credible promises that go beyond immediate context - promises across time, space, and with strangers.

"Many people bought a car. Not an ideology." - Futurist Jim Carroll
It's an "interesting" time to own a Tesla.
I've said before that it is becoming increasingly difficult to be someone who speaks and writes about the future when so much of the future has become massively volatile and wildly unpredictable. It becomes even more difficult when you find yourself caught up in a hot mess that you didn't anticipate or wish for.
Today's image is from the day I drove my Model 3 for the first time when I purchased it just under 4 years ago. I was thrilled to finally have the vehicle that I spoke about on the stage for years. A brand and vehicle that was indicative of bold thinking, radical design, massive connectivity, and eco-friendliness. It was a revolutionary project, redefining the future of one of the world's biggest industries. The founder was a true visionary, someone willing to shatter the norms in pursuit of a better future.
Today, to be honest, it's a bit difficult to drive around in it.
I feel like I'm being branded with something that I did not subscribe to.
All the stuff I just wrote above? It seems somewhat like a cruel joke.
A better future? I'm Canadian.
For years, I've observed that a brand today can go from hero to zero overnight.
Yup.
Have you seen how people are responding? Do a quick search and you'll find dozens if not hundreds of bumper stickers, license plate frames, and other accoutrements by which people share their disgust, weariness, frustration, and disappointment.
I might be compelled to get one, in that I've already had a few people give me the finger while I'm driving.
If you see someone with something like this, give them a wave - be nice to them! As I said, we bought a car, not an ideology. Many Tesla owners I have spoken to are considering selling the car and moving into something that doesn't make a statement but simply does what it is supposed to do.
I consider this course of action regularly. Do I stay or do I go now? It's a dilemma. I still love the car ; the brand and owner not so much.
Many are responding with their wallet.
The European market - traditionally a stronghold for Tesla - is showing us the power of consumer values in action as people associate the brand with a rapid hero-to-zero transition. We're seeing unprecedented declines: 63% in France, 59% in Germany, 38% in Norway, and similar dramatic drops across other key markets, culminating in a 10%+ European decline in 2024.
This isn't just a market correction - it's a fundamental realignment of consumer values with purchase decisions.
A brand today can go from hero to zero in a matter of months.
Futurist Jim Carroll predicted the Tesla business model in 2006.

Warum nur hält sich mein #Mitleid in #Grenzen ?
Irgendwann hat er wohl gemerkt, dass er sich total selbst in's Aus gestellt hat. Die #Reputation im Eimer und die #Selbstsicht passt nicht mehr mit der #Wahrnehmung der #Welt da draußen übereinander. Der #Brioni-Kanzler und #Bonzen-#Freund baut ab. Und das nach seiner #Fitness-#Diät, die ihm seine Frau verpasst hat.
War wohl alles zuviel.

Australia tried to influence other countries and Unesco to keep Great Barrier Reef off in-danger list
“Australia simply cannot be the guardian of this greatest natural wonder of the world and also the third biggest exporter of fossil fuels on the planet. It is a stark choice between coal or coral...The government’s focus on lobbying while the reef was undergoing its worst bleaching event on record in 2024 is troubling. Lobbying may delay an ‘in-danger’ listing, but it doesn’t address the root causes of the reef’s decline.”

"Gisèle est allée voir ses médecins pour obtenir de l'aide - et ils l'ont lachée. Ils ont eu l'occasion de comprendre ce qui lui arrivait - ou du moins d'impliquer les bonnes personnes qui auraient pu comprendre la situation. Imaginez si elle avait pu découvrir la trahison de son mari grâce à un·e travailleur·e de santé qu'elle connaissait et en qui elle avait confiance, plutôt qu'à la police qui s'était présentée à sa porte par hasard ?
"La façon dont vous recevez un diagnostic dévastateur ou des nouvelles traumatisantes est importante. Elle aurait dû l'apprendre plus tôt et de quelqu'un avec qui elle entretenait une relation de confiance.
"Pourquoi a-t-elle demandé des soins médicaux?
"Selon les rapports, Gisèle a consulté un médecin pour divers symptômes, dont la confusion, la perte de mémoire, des ecchymoses vaginales et anales et des douleurs. Elle ne savait pas CE QUI clochait, mais elle en savait suffisamment pour essayer d'obtenir de l'aide.
"Je crois que c'est quelque chose que nous négligeons souvent - notre corps est incroyablement intuitif. Il sait quand quelque chose ne va pas - même si notre cerveau n'en est pas conscient ou incapable de l'accepter. Cette petite voix dans votre tête se plaindra à vous disant que vous ratez quelque chose ; votre instinct vous enverra des signaux d'avertissement répétés vous demandant d'être attentif·ve.
"Gisèle est allée voir ses médecins et leur a expliqué ses symptômes - et son mari l'a accompagnée. Il les a informés qu'elle était oublieuse et qu'elle avait des signes de démence précoce.
"Au lieu de parler seule à Gisèle - les médecins ont laissé son mari de conduire la conversation - Gisèle a fini par se convaincre qu'elle souffrait de la maladie d'Alzheimer. Dans un article du Telegraph, Gisèle se souvient avoir demandé à son mari s'il la droguait :
"Je n'ai pas compris pourquoi j'ai vécu des moments comme celui-ci, j'ai une excellente mémoire", a déclaré Mme Pelicot, ajoutant que lorsqu'elle a demandé à son mari, en plaisantant, s'il la droguait, celui-ci" a fondu en larmes " et a dit: 'Tu penses vraiment que je pourrais faire ça?'."
