"Right now, billions of neurons in your brain are working together to generate a conscious experience -- and not just any conscious experience, your experience of the world around you and of yourself within it. How does this happen?"

Your brain hallucinates your conscious reality (Anil Seth | TED2017 โ€ข April 2017)

"Question. Has any reporter asked Trump about his claim that heads of other countries are โ€œgetting rid of non-productive peopleโ€ โ€” a plan he called โ€œbrilliant for themโ€ โ€” and what he meant when he said โ€œso would Iโ€ โ€ฆ to Americans?

Cause, uh, that seems kinda concerning.๐Ÿคท๐Ÿปโ€โ™€๏ธ"

Russia needs to lose, and lose badly. That's what every dictator on the planet needs to see. Our ability or failure to stop and punish Russia's crimes in will deter or encourage the aggression of dictatorships worldwide, and thereby determine the course of this century.

Thread/1 On this 4th of July as our enemies - foreign and domestic - eagerly slash at the fabric of America, I believe that there are still threads that bind us together. Iโ€™ve had the good fortune to have traveled to 45 of the 50 states in my personal and professional life. From interstates to dirt roads, deserts to swamplands, mountains to beaches, farmlands to factories. Iโ€™ve walked on volcano-fresh lava in Hawaii, eaten ocean-fresh lobster in Maine, swum with dolphins in the Florida keysโ€ฆ

"CARTOON OF THE DAY (from the 1920โ€™s)

The super-rich and corporations wanting โ€œsocialismโ€ for themselves while attacking programs that help regular folks is a tale as old as capitalism. (h/t @demcat00)"

โ€œ The mediaโ€™s restraint has been notable. As Will Sommer and Elahe Izadi reported in the Post on August 13, โ€œSo far, newsrooms have been reluctant to run with the material.โ€ Instead of publishing the leaked documents, news organizations have focused on the hack itself and the potential implications of foreign interference.โ€

BUT rather than publish the leaks, like they did with Clinton, the MSM has decided to give Trump the gift of remaining silent.
