Democratic Representative #TulsiGabbard from Hawaii announced she will launch a presidential campaign for 2020. Her campaign is likely to distinguish itself from other Democratic campaigns by making #wars and broader United States #ForeignPolicy a major issue.
...
There are powerful forces in American politics that will seize upon her past opposition to #LGBTQ rights and meeting with #Assad to neutralize her presidential campaign before she even has an opportunity to tour the country and meet with potential supporters. They fear the impact she could have if voters gravitate to her campaign, which will likely promote her anti-imperialism.

In part 9, "Pole Shift": Solar flares are already known to change the earth's rotation, now imagine one 100 to 1000 times larger than what is known. How does the crust unlock from the mantle? Would a tilt be included or rotation change only? A pole shift is already underway.

Paris men’s fashion week starts today. Virgil Abloh said “My next Louis Vuitton collection is going to be based on Michael Jackson, & when I have MJ singing in the background, it’s a different type of shirt, it’s a different kind of boot...Music is key” https://www.esquire.com/style/mens-fashion/a25462527/virgil-abloh-michael-jackson-louis-vuitton/

Growth.
Its like chasing that phantom ghost up the hill.

At some stage we as a human race are gonna have to swap the whole continual growth thing for something else, like sustainability, you can sit there and argue about how many people a city, a country a continent or even the planet can sustain, but at the end of the day at some stage, humans, as a collective have to accept there will be a end to continual growth and the evolution to something sustainable.

I personally don't hold much hope for that, whilst we are an incredibly advanced and intelligent species we are also also incredibly dumb.

Its interesting to look at which (developed nations) have zero or negative population growth, of course freakin iceland is up there, they are like the kiwis, just seem to do everything better ;) Japan is also pretty high on the list, one could probably argue that these two countries have achieved some sustainable level of existence..greenland is another, but really, who the hell would wanna live in greenland anyways. :) sorry Greenland, im sure its actually a really beautiful place :)

I'm putting my money on that the human race is gonna go the same way as the dinosaurs.. what's kinda scary is that the fact in my lifetime the growth and changes have been absolutely crazy, irrespective of whether you believe or agree with climate change the simple fact is that humans are having a substantial impact on the planet, on the very thing that keeps them (us) alive.. thats my nutter rant for a tuesday evening

Senate Democrats spent several hours probing Attorney General nominee William Barr’s views on Robert Mueller’s investigation as his confirmation hearings kicked off on Tuesday.

The Fall of Google

I am very sad to write this, but Google's failure of leadership on Google+ is a complete disaster. The utter disregard for end users is shocking.

I hope that business cases will be written about Google+ in the future to illustrate what happens when businesses lose sight of the fact that end users still needed to be treated with the same respect accorded to paying customers.

I hope, too, that people will take a lesson from this service and the tremendous loss of human capital that it represents, to reassess how willing we are to trust our creations and our relationships to large corporations.

The Trump administration continues to tell lies.
This time Kevin Hassett tries to equate government workers who are without an income to people on "vacation," even though many of those same government workers are forced to work without pay!

Trump's grifter collective sent out false requests for donations to an "Official Secure the Border Fund," both before and after his televised speech. The funds were in fact collected for and by Trump's "Make America Great Again Committee," which is trump's re-election committee..

Trump is lying to his own base to collect money for his election campaign, by falsely claiming the money is for his border wall monument..

All of this exposed in just the first 3 and a half minutes of the video.

Watch the video for more.
