2001-2002: “We will not negotiate with terrorists”

2023: “Let’s have a reasonable discussion with Nazis.”

🤦🏾‍♂️

I’ve said it before in a previous instance I was on. I’ll say it again here. And I’ll say it until folks get it: I would be absolutely livid if I fought and helped defeat Nazis in the 1940s only to live long enough to watch Nazism be openly embraced, accepted, and normalized by this country 80 years later. I wouldn’t be able to help but question my entire time in the service and the sacrifices of those who fought beside me and lost their lives.

I came up in the 90s and 2000s, watching everyone on TV and in movies idolize the “Greatest Generation”. With this recent rise in (and encouragement of) Nazism, this country has negated and invalidated ALL of that. I don’t wanna hear ANY of the America First/Freedom Caucus loonies talk glowingly about WW2 vets when they freely support the very same culture the “Greatest Generation” fought against. 😡

Sure the Dilbert guy went full racist and destroyed his career, but he’s instantly launched a promising career as a GOP politician

Tennessee gives trans youth 1 year to detransition. The state also banned drag performances

These cry bullies love to talk about the constitution. KK

The 14th Amendment

Moving aboard next week, I'll have to re-acquaint myself with the four-times-daily ritual of the BBC's shipping forecast — transcribing the abbreviated descriptions of local wind direction and force, sea state, and visibility in the log.

She argues in Italian
She sings to you in French
She yells at you in German
In tones that make you clench
The girl is complicated
And very hard to please
When you disappoint her

Snow covered mountains near my place.

I have lived in this area for 14 years and I have never seen snow on the mountains. ❄️🏔️

A post shared by the admin of a favorite FB page.

“Dawn points, and another day prepares for heat and silence.
Out at sea the dawn wind
Wrinkles and slides.
I am here or there or elsewhere. In my beginning.” - From the ‘Four Quartets’, East Coker 1940 by T. S.Eliot. Photo of the sunrise at the Great Ridge, Mam Tor, Peak District, Derbyshire, England, by Daniel Kay.

The phrase "government approved book" or "government approved curriculum" should alarm everyone. #Indoctrination is the process of teaching people to accept ideas uncritically. Only presenting one idea and banning & demonizing any idea that counters it meets the definition.

In short, #Florida is seeking to indoctrinate students.

Hello. I paint pictures, mostly of Ireland, but for 11 yrs now I've been a full-time unpaid carer, so time to paint is rare.
I've cycled across America and across Europe, and among other cycling adventures did a painting twitter tour around Ireland.
Once upon a time I was a programmer, and an analyst.
I like dogs and birds and walls and shapes, and I drink an awful lot of tea.
Sketching outdoors and writing indoors are things I love to do, but see above. #introduction #IrishTwitter #MastoDaoine.

"Oughterard Field" Today's early #painting is from the east of #Ireland, from a hill in Kildare in fact - if that isn't almost a contradiction. I spent years on this, including more than one visit to the location. Behind you as you enjoy this view, is a church ruin, a cemetery, and a round tower stump. It's also where a certain Arthur Guinness rests. #Art

@molly0xfff Great article. I agree that upgradable proxy contracts really seem to undo a lot of what crypto supposedly promises.

One question I had after reading the coverage of this (yours and Blockworks'): it seems to jump from "it's a 4 of 12 multisig" to "the Sender wallet executed these transactions". What happened to needing 4 signatures? Is that the "vulnerability" Oasis alluded to?

I run into this a lot in crypto. People decide to use a blockchain and incur huge speed/$/scalability costs, then themselves undermine all the things the blockchain is supposed to do, ending up with a version of existing products that's just slow, expensive, and doesn't scale.

Grab your machete because we're getting into the weeds.

The "counter-hack" by Jump Crypto and Oasis just provided a remarkable demonstration of the centralization of defi. Read more: https://newsletter.mollywhite.net/p/oasis-defi-centralization
