"Any time we experience a work of art for the first time, the only reason we notice it at all is because it completes a circuit within us and engages our attention." #QotD

Peter Cresswell at Not PC - 9 hours ago
*"Any time we experience a work of art for the first time, the only reason we notice it at all is because it completes a circuit within us and engages our attention. "It’s important to try and refrain from criticising the work; simply respond to it naturally. "In order for a work of art to survive the moment of surprise, the work must contain mystery...

Bolton: We're Taking Venezuela's Oil

Daniel McAdams at 9 hours ago
President Trump's National Security Advisor John Bolton made US policy toward Venezuela very clear in an interview on FoxNews yesterday: We're going to overthrow the government and take the country's oil. He gets points for bluntness, at least. But who are the "democratic forces" the US seeks to install to "restore Venezuela's constitution"? They were all trained by the same US government funded "regime change factories" behind the color revolutions of the Bush and Obama Administrations. In other words, they are the creations of the US government, not of the Venezuelan people. Tune ... more »

The Making of Juan Guaido: How the US Regime Change Laboratory Created Venezuela's Coup Leader

9 hours ago
[image: undefined] Before the fateful day of January 22, fewer than one in five Venezuelans had heard of Juan Guaidó. Only a few months ago, the 35-year-old was an obscure character in a politically marginal far-right group closely associated with gruesome acts of street violence. Even in his own party, Guaidó had been a mid-level figure in the opposition-dominated National Assembly, which is now held under contempt according to Venezuela’s constitution. But after a single phone call from from US Vice President Mike Pence, Guaidó proclaimed himself as president of Venezuela. Anoint... more »

Why can’t Paddy be black?

Norma at Collecting My Thoughts - 9 hours ago
Why not? If Irish Paddy wants to be black or Indian, why can't he be a transracial man--or women if he gets the hormones at the same time as the tanning lotion? There's a scholarship s/he has his eye on. Janice Fiamengo finds this delicious irony of a feminist publication that intends to publish those on the minority fringe, being castigated for actually publishing something those further out on the edge didn’t like.

Remembering Eisenhower’s Formosa AUMF

MWaxman at Lawfare - 15 hours ago
Credit: National Archives On this date in 1955, President Dwight Eisenhower signed a congressional joint resolution authorizing military force to protect Formosa, as Taiwan was then called by the U.S. government, and surrounding islands.

It’s especially worth remembering this episode now, as President Trump calls into quest... more »

No, they are not all placebos, but products sold as supplements that do something are either actual drugs, like kratom, and thus should be regulated as drugs, they are useless placebos adulterated with actual drugs, like many Internet erectile dysfunction and diet pills, or they are useless in normal doses but toxic at high levels.
