"My current thought is that the majority of rhetorical skill during discussion (not debate, because that’s antagonistic by design), should be focused on 'managing the receptiveness of the receiver'."

Este Dios es demasiado TONTO. Habrá que esperar, pero el mundo no puede quedarse donde está
I wonder why his face looks different here. Maybe leopards have been chewing on it.
They just repeat the same question, hoping to wear you down until you either leave or give them the answer they want.
So instead of playing by his rules, I hit him with the one line that ended everything.

my first thought was ooh, that'd be good for mixing paint.
Next are "show them to traditional craftspeople and ask what they'd use them for or how they'd make them" and "period tracker or promise of days until next meeting".

ohhhhh with the snapping, it's like a promissory note or early parentage ID for example.
Count down to wedding, if prehistoric peoples even did marriage?
Good point about "probably not just one purpose" tbh.

Lovecraft era un racista, reconocido, sobre todo en su juventud...
Creo que no podemos obviar el arte de personas machistas/misóginas/racistas,etc... porque nos quedaríamos sin más de la mitad de la historia cultural. Yo si es gente muerta no tengo problema, lo asimilo, lo acepto a pesar de la decepción. Es nuestro pasado. Con las vivas ya es diferente.
Es un tema delicado. Tú cómo lo llevas, eres capaz de separar a la persona de su arte?
With typical bone-headed arrogance, the EU’s seeking to exploit the Ukraine crisis to position itself as a military superpower, and alternative to Nato. That’s as stupid as it is dangerous – and, of course, Starmer’s lapping it up, writes NILE GARDINER https://www.byteseu.com/848619/ #dailymail #debate #Europe #Moscow #NATO #Russia #Ukraine #VladimirPutin

"They Can't Beat All of Us"
A Report Back from the #FloridaAbolitionistGathering
#CrimethInc, March 15, 2025
"From February 28 to March 2, hundreds of #abolitionists and #anarchists from across the country converged in Gainesville for the first Florida Abolitionist Gathering (#FAG). Across a passionate weekend of #workshops, films, food, #debate, #ritual, and #protest, the contours of a robust regional #resistance movement came into focus.
"The #intergenerational, heavily #queer and #trans, and strongly multi-issue and anarchist group of abolitionists that converged in Florida articulated an expansive vision of #liberation anchored in the urgent need to dismantle the #PrisonIndustrial complex in all its manifestations. The gathering showed that even as liberals wring their hands about the death of democracy, scrappy groups of organizers continue to fight back—and sometimes win—deep within the belly of the beast."

Derrocar el capitalismo para frenar el colapso climático
Local XR Madrid, domingo, 30 de marzo, 12:00 CEST
DERROCAR EL CAPITALISMO PARA FRENAR EL COLAPSO CLIMÁTICO 
Les activistes somos conscientes de que el capitalismo es el causante directo de la crisis climática y que necesitamos derribarlo en el corto plazo para no sufrir sus peores consecuencias. Pero, ¿están nuestras teorías de cambio y nuestras estrategias alineadas con esta certeza?
¿Cómo podemos derrocar el capitalismo para frenar el colapso climático? El libro "All In" hace un análisis y un recorrido histórico por distintos movimientos revolucionarios y traza nuevas propuestas que nos inciten a organizarnos y a tomar acción para poder desmantelar el sistema.
Os invitamos a la presentación del libro "All In: A revolutionary theory to stop climate collapse" junto a su co-autora Mariana Rodrigues, activista climática portuguesa, para charlar y debatir juntes sobre nuevas teorías de cambio y propuestas para dar nuevos enfoques a la lucha por la justicia climática.
Domingo 30 de marzo a las 12:00 en el local de Rebelión o Extinción
C/Iglesia, 12 <M> Marqués de Vadillo
Os esperamos 
luego tendremos un vermú para compartir las ideas que queden pendientes de forma más informal
