Throughout the story of the ICE invasion of Minneapolis, it’s been the helpers who’ve most captured international attention: the people keeping watch, the people delivering groceries, the people marching and raising their voices. There’s a lot of us.
Mr. Rogers said “look for the helpers,” and yes, that’s good advice. But in this case, it needs a second thought: don’t look so hard for the helpers that you forget the people we’re helping.

I think the thing the video fails to stress enough is the importance of the revolutionary program to the insurgency. Che failed because he failed to pay attention to his own lessons (and perhaps didn't fully understand them) about the primacy of the revolutionary program.
The true power of the insurgency comes from the things the state *cannot* compromise on.

Right, that's the record player in place and running! Anyone suggestions on the right (non-poncy) way to clean records and keep it happy? Some, like this one have been in jackets for a long time but are relatively clean; but I also have a big box of singles that probably more careful attention.

Zocalo: Ramadan Invites Us to Imagine a Better Future
I have a new piece on Zócalo about Ramadan as a futurist practice. Ramadan is a futurist practice. Ritual fasting and increased spiritual contemplation are ruptures in Muslims’ daily habits, not just in eating, but in our movement through the world. They force you to pay attention, with eyes misty with spirituality—to feel viscerally what is wrong with the world. Ramadan invites Muslims to imagine how we can remake…

How America's War on Iran Backfired
Seventeen years ago, while serving as an Iran desk officer in the U.S. State Department, I asked a more veteran colleague about the latest inflammatory statement by Mahmood Ahmadinejad, then the Iranian president. My colleague responded: “Stop paying attention to Ahmadinejad. Only focus on Iranian Supreme Leader Ali Khamenei. He makes the important decisions.” He added: “But don’t worry. Change is coming. Khamenei”—who was then 69 and widely believed to have cancer—“could die at…

Hi, I'm Thomas. Back in 2005 or so I've practically invented in-browser animations with HTML elements.
PLEASE DO NOT ANIMATE USER INTERFACE ELEMENTS FOR NO REASON.
Do not animate icons, change positions of buttons, do "fun liquid glass animations"; definitely under no circumstances move in or fade in whole blocks of text (unless your design goal is that you want people looking at your website to become nauseous).
Only use animation when it's helpful to the user—for example, when they need to pay extra attention to something because there's a risk of data loss or to pass the time while showing that something is going on when there's a process which takes a bit longer.

Jackery is making solar power actually beautiful. At CES, they unveiled solar roof tiles, a home battery system, and even a Solar Gazebo with 2 kW of panels that generates 10 kWh daily.
The gazebo runs $12-15K and pairs with battery storage for backup power. It's not utility-scale, but it's the kind of creative design that could make clean energy irresistible to everyday consumers.

Jackery Brings Creativity & Design To Solar & Energy Storage - CleanTechnica
While walking the floor at CES, Jackery attracted my attention. Jackery started as a portable battery power company 14 years ago. There are many competitors in that space now offering high-quality products. Increasingly, they blur the line between portable battery storage and home storage, with solar-integrated scalable home batteries that can be taken with you when you need them. Jackery’s new HomePower 3600 Plus is a great example.

So the collective trauma reaction against the Church, so deep for those of us coming from the tradition of the European Left, alienates us from those indigenous comrades of ours who refused to let their identities be erased. It alienates us from Black and Latin American comrades who, in some cases, have subverted that same religion from a tool of oppression to a tool of resistance.
It also alienates us from our pagan, Jewish, and even Christian ancestors. Rather than a rejection of the genocides, crusades, and pogroms carried out to solidify the hegemony of the Church, a chauvinistic atheism affirms it under another name. Likewise it affirms the patriarchs who burned witches and destroyed midwifery to shift power over to male doctors.
The "Enlightenment" paradigm of "Reason," that led through secularism to the anti-religious antagonism of Bill Maher and the New Atheists, is laced with an Islamophobia and anti-Semitism rooted in the same church they claim to reject. And anyone who has been paying attention can see that it opens the door to the far right anti-Semitism and Islamophobia that also grows from that same root...
