"Russia’s ongoing war in Ukraine disrupted oil & fertilizer supplies. With a fresh conflict in the Middle East accelerating food price inflation again this year, the cost of [buying food] has become a frustration for Americans & made affordability a central issue in the fall midterm elections." 2/2

Maybe I'm just grundling and it taint nothin, but I can't find it. Really tickles my gooch, though!

...at addressing the wider attention crisis, also known as human fracking, that undermines our ability to respond mindfully to the myriad crises of our time, let alone enjoy the simple pleasures, including decent mental health and a general sense of wellbeing. Retrieving the latter is doable! 📚

Mission Accomplished: The Epstein Files are out of the news. Or off page one at least. Am I wrong?

Donald Trump and Jeffrey Epstein standing shoulder to shoulder--Donald doing the white man's overbite, Jeffrey arms crossed across his chest--while they watch some young girl they want to rape.

When the most optimistic AI researchers believe there's a significant chance AGI leads to very bad things for humanity, it's time to step back. Note: these guys are not the optimists. We're rushing toward a threshold and we don't know where it is, which step will be too far. ifanyonebuildsit.com

Whatipū

Weathered hollow log sits in shallow water reflecting luminous sky with rugged coastline in shadow and aglow in the background, past the sea and the black sand beach.

Wider shot showing less log, more pool, background and foreground. Lighter sand close, more black sand beach and whitewater surging in the turbulent sea as a bank of gray cloud drifts through the blue above and is reflected in the pool.

A shining ruffled-surface stream carves an arc through a black sand beach, with the sea behind in front of Paratūtai Island and the south heads of the Manukau Harbour entrance aglow on Awhitu Peninsula. Also a hole in the rock of the island.

Rock overhang of base of Paratūtai Island nearly touches rocky ridge rising at left, both framing the view along the north coast looking into Manukau Harbour.

I'd be honoured to receive this for Father's Day! Never got to the reviews, but before my Amazon account was locked for unusual activity, I captured these gems. Are you ready to follow this "path to self-understanding", to use a "key for the those willing to explore the less conventional aspects"?

Failure upon failure

The use of such weapons to attack civilians lays bare how Russia has expanded its war on Ukraine by relying on weapons supplied by countries hostile to the West. Ukraine’s partners, meanwhile, have not yet made guarantees to continue providing urgently needed air defenses that could help defend against such attacks, including U.S.-made Patriot systems.
Despite receiving some systems from Western partners, Ukraine has never had nearly enough supplies to defend the entire country, forcing it to regularly move its limited systems between cities in an attempt to predict the next attacks. As a result, each night, most of the population is left vulnerable to Russian attacks.

In a later post on his Truth Social account, Trump said of Putin: “He has gone absolutely CRAZY!”
“Missiles and drones are being shot into Cities in Ukraine, for no reason whatsoever. I’ve always said that he wants ALL of Ukraine, not just a piece of it, and maybe that’s proving to be right, but if he does, it will lead to the downfall of Russia!” Trump added.

Trump’s envoy to Ukraine, retired Lt. Gen. Keith Kellogg, said the attacks were “shameful” and a breach of the Geneva Conventions in a post on X. He included an image of Kyiv engulfed in flames, but in keeping with Trump administration policy, Kellogg stopped short of directly naming or blaming Russia for the blitz.

The Trump administration appears loath to make big announcements on weapons deliveries to Kyiv, believing that could derail negotiations, he added.
“They seem to think now if we have a huge announcement of giving Patriot missiles to Ukraine, that’s not something they want because it will make Putin very angry,” the official said. “They would be very concerned about this kind of jeopardizing any potential peace talks.

Ukrainian officials in Kyiv, however, believe that the Trump administration would be willing to sell the country more Patriots rather than send them as aid, as the previous administration did. A senior Ukrainian official said he does not expect Washington to block the sale of future air defense systems to Ukraine, but understands the White House “will not give it away for free.”
“They think like business people. If I give you something, you have to give me something in return,” he said. “We have to adapt to this.”

Does everyone pause on this post count and momentarily consider never posting again, before posting about it? 👺👹🙄

😆The last sentence shown😂🤣 Made me think of Robin Hood, so I got reacquainted with his antagonists. Where Robin Hood steals from the rich to give to the poor, the Sheriff of Nottingham takes from the poor to enrich the wealthy and powerful. 1/🧵 Source: www.washingtonpost.com/politics/202...
