Trump has ordered “a total and complete” blockade of all ‘sanctioned’ oil tankers entering and leaving Venezuela ports,
-- which is technically an act of war.
How seriously should we take this?
Trump has certainly threatened war with Venezuela in the past.
Former US National Security advisor John Bolton reports that Trump said during his first presidential term (2017-2020) that invading Venezuela would be “cool”
because it is “really part of the United States.”<…

PSA about food labeling in the US
We have a gluten detection service dog because many things that should be gluten free/say they’re gluten free are not actually gluten free.
Stuff gets contaminated when growing (e.g. next to wheat field), by shared equipment, in factories, from packaging, during transport and in-store.
Every US consumer should know:
1. The list of ingredients on food isn't exhaustive
2. Allergen labeling:
a) limited to just some allergens
b) manufacturers don't actually have to test
c) "certified" foods are tested—but not continuously
d) testing only works with enough contamination
Some certifications may require batch-testing, but usually they don't.
A "certified gluten free" product may e.g. contain oats which sometimes are contaminated with gluten—but as not every batch is tested it's impossible to know unless you test yourself (hence the service dog).
Even if the product is properly batch-tested, you might get a part of the product that has the allergen in it, whereas the tested part didn't.
Or the threshold was too low (our dog can detect gluten better than any available lab testing equipment; yes, dogs are amazing).
Food products also contain ingredients that do not have to be included on the label when they're "incidental" (included in an another ingredient) or if they're considered part of the manufacturing process but not of the final product (e.g. various coatings on factory equipment).
Don't need to list flavors or specific spices either. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
As for allergens, only those responsible for ~90% of food allergies* have to be specifically declared, and they're not tested for as it's simply based on the ingredients list.
Good luck if you have other allergies.

Reagan's "Welfare Queen" rhetoric was a dog whistle. The whole "southern strategy" was full of dog whistles. Every time Republicans talked about gay marriage as a "states rights" issue, those were dog whistles. Naming a government agency "the Department of Homeland Security" was a dog whistle. Trump's speeches leading up to his first term were full of dog whistles.
Nazis have total control of all branches of government. They've cut off funding to all but the most oppressive elements of the government. There are concentration camps, both in client states (CECOT, among others) and in the US (Alligator Auschwitz, among others). They're actively carrying out ethnic cleansing.
When DHS puts out some Nazi shit, it's not a dog whistle. It's a vuvuzela. They're not trying to signal their intent without any of the "normies" noticing. They actively doing what they wanted to do. It's not a signal because there's nothing to signal. It's a celebration.

ACT and their Atlas Network operative leader, David Seymour, are the tail wagging the National ACT NZF coalition. Luxon conceded pretty much everything ACT required from National. Perhaps he is more right wing than National is, but also wanted the reins of power, so he was happy for ACT to lead it... but I wonder how National supporters feel about our domestic policy being set by an overseas oligarch-funded 'tail' wagging the National dog?

So in another dream I just woke up from, I was talking to someone about "the idea problem" (that it's becoming harder to monitize ideas, from a vox article written by an AI cooked reporter).
iheart.com/podcast/105-it-coul
Basically, I was arguing that the majority of inventions target men because patriarchy puts economic control in men's hands. As men have started to help more with childcare, there have been more inventions related to childcare. (I don't have any idea if this is true. Seems legit, but I'm just relating my dream. I think I was also oversimplifying a bit to "men" and "women" because of my audience, but anyway it was a dream.) There's actually more low-hanging fruit, I pointed out, related to making care work easier.
So I argued that the real problem was a failure to invest in research into solving that problem. Today there are all these boondoggles built around killing people. What if, instead of all this government research into killing people, we dumped a ton of money into making it easier to support a household? That would be great for the economy. (Being asleep, I seem to have forgotten that working people need money.)
In the blur of being just awake I started thinking about how you could kickstart the US economy by taking the money from the AI boondoggle and other autonomous murder bots and create something like a program to build robots for housekeepers. You'd still be funding tech with government money, so the same horrible people get paid, but you're now actually solving real problems. It wouldn't even matter if it was a boondoggle, honestly. Just dumping money into something other than murdering people is good enough.
I imagined first if there was a program to fund a robot housecleaner, like robot dog with AI some laundry pickup, that would be provided, free of charge, to help people with children. It would work the same as the military boondoggle where a private company makes the government buy a piece of hardware from them and then also pay them to service it for some number of years. But instead of that hardware sitting around waiting to kill someone, it would be getting brought to people's houses to help them.
Then I thought, hey, you could even boost the economy more if you just had government funding for doulas and housecleaners and paid them a living wage. Hey, you could really kickstart the economy by nationalizing healthcare and including doula support as part of all births. Oh, and you could also just include the optional household help for families with children until the kids turn 18.
None of this is perfect (I don't actually think most of this is possible from any state), but the point is that it's actually wildly easy to figure out all kinds of ways to invest in the economy and monitize ideas as long as you aren't entirely focused on the same old "make money from spying on people and killing them." Funny that. Like they said in the podcast, maybe "finding ideas" isn't the problem.
Hope you enjoyed the weird semi-awake brain dump/rant.

… I love those lyrics.
I trap you so much!
Yes, I want you to be happy
But don't threaten my happiness
Can't you see I'm walking this threadbare tightrope?
Made out of dental floss stitched
Together with strands of tobacco and dog hair
And it stretches between two precious fantasies, my fantasy of me
And my fantasy of you

Democratic senator Patty Murray of Washington state has condemned the Trump administration
after she alleged that an Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) “attack dog” mauled one of her constituents.
Senator Murray said Wilmer Toledo-Martinez suffered “horrific” injuries while ICE agents detained him in November.
“An ICE agent lured Wilmer out of his home under false pretenses,
posing as a construction worker who claimed to have hit Wilmer’s car and needed him to s…

This is Bryan. Once a week, he takes a shelter pup on a New York City adventure in his ‘Adopt Me’ backpack, hoping someone will fall in love. He films their big day out, and almost every dog he’s featured has found a forever home.

Please enjoy this random golden retriever dressed up as a chef that we saw tonight while trick-or-treating. #DogsOfMastodon

A dog sits on a street, tongue out, looking to the left. The dog (a golden retriever) is leashed, with its owner next to it. The dog has a white chef hat on, with a little red bone logo on the front. It also has a white chef shirt on, and little black pants on its front legs.

Baghed may be breaking up, but from that has spawned new Philly band Dasgüt, and this is their first single. Major Baghed vibes. Dig it.

In a dream last night I was trying to write a post. I kept being interrupted and when I returned I'd find what I wrote had changed. The keyboard kept changing as I was typing to be "helpful." I put down my phone and picked it up again to find the app had "helpfully" filled my screen with Nazi shit. Then I realized the app was an AI post assistant, so I uninstalled it and used the website.
The post I was trying to write was, "I want to be able to have the confidentiality of cheap hot dog meat in the 90's: no one should know who or what I actually am."
It feels like a relevant manifestation of the anxiety of existing on the internet today.

Slightly dramatic day. Husband has a scary fall in the bathroom. Help him up, provide ice pack for his wrist and a cuppa while he regains his equanimity. Wee one is here so try to keep him occupied while looking after husband. Hospital is at least 5 hour wait. Rush to walk-in clinic before x-ray closes. X-ray taken but no one in attendance who is officially qualified to read it. WrIst is splinted. We go home. Grand-dog arrives. 3 hours later - phone call from clinic - DO NOT REMOVE SPLINT. T…

Everyday, Frank the #Squirrel comes to my doorstep, asking for food. He scratches at the door, peering through the glass.
I open the door & give him a walnut & he takes it from my hand & then jumps on the fence & eats it. He comes back when he's done.
It's as much fun as walking my dog, Waldo.

The wee one arrives tomorrow for his pre- christmas stay. I think he's going back on xmas eve. On sunday, the grand-dog arrives for his 11 day sojourn.
Gonna be an interesting few days. A toddler and a blue heeler: it'll be a mischief-filled madhouse at our place. And I can't wait. 😂

Rule #1 of movies:
"Never kill the dog."
Corellary:
"...unless it underpins the main character's motivation. See '#JOHNWICK'."
Dunno how many times I've been in a theater & when the dog is in jeopardy, the people sitting next to me whisper, 'oh no no no... don't you dare f'ing do it..."
