Fascism

Starting in 2020, DHS began meeting with Twitter, Facebook, Wikipedia and more monthly to coordinate 'content moderation' efforts.

Matt Masterson, who was formerly an official with DHS, told a DHS director in February 2022 that "Platforms have got to get comfortable with gov't. It's really interesting how hesitant they remain."

Areas that came under this purview included the withdrawal from Afghanistan, undertaken disastrously by President Joe Biden in August 2021 as well as the origins of the Covid-19 virus, which became controversial enough that users were kicked off social media platforms for expressing the hypothesis that the virus originated in a Wuhan, China lab. A Senate report found last week that this was the most likely scenario. Information that could undermine trust in financial institutions was also targeted.

Guard Dogs And Fitness Trackers

As Halo gets older, Dinah is taking over guard duty. He'll still go out and bark for something serious (like a horse), but Dinah does most of the guarding. She's getting more reliable about what she alerts on, and I encourage her by going out and looking when she goes off. This is Dinah's job, and she loves doing it. Some neighbors have complemented my dogs, telling me they paid big money for guard dogs that didn't work.

I ordered an Amazon fitness tracker, with amazing diagnostics. Not just steps and heart rate, but things like sleep analysis and a function that analyzes your voice when you interact with people.
