I'm reading Why Civil Resistance Works, The Strategic Logic of Nonviolent Conflict by Erica Chenoweth and Maria J. Stephan because Kim Stanley Robinson has been mentioning this work, most memorably in the following quote: "If it works like Chenoweth's law says it does, then you only need about fifteen percent of a population to engage in civil disobedience, and the rest see it and support it, and the oligarchy falls. You get a new legal regime." I am plotting the downfall of this regime I'm living in and knowledge is power.
Here's a short TEDx Talk to give you a taste.

Shades of Freshman Year?
This is the kind of win you’re not supposed to get.
Facing a great team on their home ice in a 2-0 hole and desperate to stay in the series; facing the best power play in the league and itching to break an 0-10 drought and avenge a PK that’s surrendered 4 goals; facing a goalie change; coming off 50+ shots faced in Game 2; up against a 40-25 shot disadvantage, a 39% face off win rate, a 31-17 deficit in hits--nothing about Game 3 boded a Rangers win.
The script unfolded as expected in the first. Guentzel, the deadline acquisition who’s scored maybe more playoff goals against the Rangers than any other player, buries another. Carolina allows no let up but holds the lead into mid second period when, at 7:39, Fox gets called for tripping.
Carolina goes on their third power play of the game, hoping lucky 13 will break the drought.
They. have. all. the. momentum.
Guentzel wins the faceoff. For thirty seconds its a firing squad: Burns, Jarvis, Aho, Guentzel and Svechnikov all shoot the puck. One block, one miss and three saves by Igor.
Just past the eight minute mark the whole series undergoes a seismic shift.
Zibanejad jumps a bad cross-ice pass at the blue line. He and Kreider are off--two white streaks breaking down ice with one hapless stick swinging, back checking defender between them.
Kreids buries the shorty. 1-1 score.
For the rest of the second it feels like the Canes (team, coaches and fans collectively) have been punched in the throat. The momentum shift feels like round 2 in Rocky IV after that hook tears Drago’s eye open.
The Canes were so rattled the Rangers damn near scored again on the same kill. Twice.
After that, nothing surprised me. Not the go ahead third period goal. I thought the Rangers might take it 2-1 but Carolina does their thing with the goalie pulled. Svechnikov at 18:24. Ho-hum. No panic. Three minutes and nineteen seconds later (not including intermission)-- By the time Panarin rips the game winner (his fourth), it feels like it's meant to be.
Wins like this are about the surest sign you can ask for that it's your team's year.
The series isn't over (technically), Boston ain't bad and Florida is scary, and the west has got scoring talent galore. Not to mention the Avs: as a Jersey transplant in Colorado, the thought of a another Avalanche cup win, this time at the Rangers's expense, makes me throw up in my mouth.
All of the above notwithstanding--the Rangers have the '94 Mojo. Another President's Trophy, another 7-0 start to the playoffs. They're also rested and, with Chytil back, actually healthier than ever! Unlike the Knicks, who are a Brunson ankle-tweak away from forfeiting--the Rangers are spreading the love and could absorb almost any loss. Just when you think a Ranger's name hasn't been mentioned in a while, he scores.
Hell, with Quick on the bench, we could even survive losing Shesterkin!
The 5-5 issue has turned into a nothing burger with a healthy six to date in these series and a slew in round 1. Not that anemic even-strength scoring matters much when you're dominating on the power play and your PK has more goals on opposing penalties than your opponents do!
In the face of this freight train Carolina be like Michael Spinks after a hard right from Tyson--a fine boxer whose grand strategy is now trickling down his leg and will be lucky to make the first bell.
Lest I be accused of jinxing my beloved Blueshirts: I'm not having Stanley Cup visions yet. But I can't deny that tonight's vibes have a premonitory quality to them.
Not exactly Stephane Matteau, Jim Leyritz or David Tyree tremors.
More like Kovalev's goal in Game 6, Jeffrey Maier's catch, or Brandon Jacobs vs. the shot clock at Texas Stadium.
Rest assured, though, Lord Stanley's mug remains as impossibly silver and elusive to me as the Holy Grail.
After tonight, though, I will permit myself a fond remembrance of the day Ken Conrad brought a cardboard and tinfoil replica to school one fine spring day in the waning weeks of freshman year (June 15th, 1994, to be exact). It was glorious. Every Ranger fan was decked out like an American flag while the eye of every Devil's fan (about 70% of my high school) burned red with bitterness or green with envy at the sight of that faux trophy.
The afterglow lasted precisely one week--ending the night John Starks went 0-11 from three point land doomed the Knicks in Game 7 against the Rockets. After finally getting past the (Jordanless) Bulls, I was sure the script called for a Knicks coronation and felt a bit cheated to be denied the double title.
I was 15. A year later I watched NY getting swept by the Legion of Doom, Claude Lemieux snag the Conn Smythe and the Devils raise their first cup (with two more slated for my college years).
At age 45, I have learned not to take championship glory for granted. 30 years on, following the Rangers negotiate the two month gauntlet that is the NHL playoffs is about a nerve wracking as witnessing my son's birth in the middle of the Boulder Floods of 2013--7-0 record be damned.
Tonight at least I'm making a point to enjoy the ride so far.

Calling all Southern courts off hook to settle with Alex Spiro And America First Legal! @elonmuskparody Presiding Judges Smythe and Jacqueline Jackson no longer have working numbers in Sandiego and Riverside. @britneyspears & Cher Stanley Mosk Courtroom 3 is full on voicemail. Judge Cindy Davis in dept 1203 didn't answer calls through holidays, and clerk just called to say she's been disposed of but not sure how, where, or why. Judge Mathew Brower's clerk says he's been promoted to organised crime in El Cajon now, so I leave messages for Judge RONALD M. SAWBRAW at Jams today and yesterday in Bay Area since he controls whole region and is married to MY DA Summer Stephan- who also failed to perform. Now I can't tweet my political allies in Shadowban on X- we need to rise higher and support our beloveds with voice however we can. Please keep pioneering for #4BillionMothersStrong and stop @neuralink-api-official retardation on our leading Geniuses with hookers parasite in brain. Did they kidnap @taylorswift so football team all gets her babies and @rihanna-infinity robots with their pants down for Superbowl? This is disgusting @rickrubinlyingdown rockstars are being trafficked by Football team. Real @taylorswifts13 was crying on @youtube all week because football player raped and cheated on her in James Bond Stirling Men's group con for politicians. He's gross! He stalked her! I'm sure she doesn't want to marry a man 20 years older! I could only just stomach it in my 20's but my parents were relieved I escaped David Farley Kaplan then. It's just he has so many millions of Jewish attys like Dr. Alan Silverman molesting his family like @sarahsilverman-blog has testified for decades! Rape isn't funny. It's just only way a gal can testify without getting murdered. Cybermoms would love a Whistle and a #Cybertruck - pick up our kids. Snipped dicks will always want war but theres a lot of great men that don't deserve guilt of it. It's not serving us. Let's all get married and move on. It's more fun. @elonmuskparody is so much smarter than us. He wants to get married. He's right. It's the highest path. That's what @teslacoils-and-hubris would reccomend. The security of the heart is more essential than robotic hardware. If you balance a man his junk works. Everyone sees my glow from self oil cleansing massage and wants my services. It's a DIY thing. Humanity is really bugged up. Elon is taking long showers as am I. It's more wholesome than letting airforce transvestites molest him. I know y'all watch trans porn- because women won't use their talent that way anymore- and not only have developed unhealthy trauma bonding with transvestites unknowingly through porn- they've also bonded with technology through porn creating robots rather than Goddess- creating babies. Reality check- invitro babies will never be intelligent enough to go to Mars. So why are Prime Ministers raping our Physicists with lab mommies? Why are there all these tags about @benshapirospinktentacled1ldo @benshapiroslefttesticle testicles and nuts? Did he lose a piece of the pie to Israeli War games too? @keanureevesdaily @keanureeveskudos-blog @rickrubinlyingdown @rickrubin412 @davidlynchfoundation

STEM Kids Shenanigans (Chapter 13)
Chapter 13: Surveillance
Dante liked being alone. It meant that he could do what he wanted, wear what he wanted. Being alone meant nobody else's opnions were voiced, which was a kind of freedom in and of itself.
But then he made friends that were just like him.
They loved science just as much as he did, albeit different areas of science. They would take turns infodumping to each other about it, happily explaining their own plane of expertise to the other. It had gotten even better after 'the slime incident' had happened. Once the situation and the slime had been cleared up, Melanie had started avoiding them. People seemed to be nicer to them, too, which was an interesting side effect. But all Dante wanted was to be a nerd with his friends in peace.
But they weren't going to have peace and quiet just yet.
A knock sounded, and all four of them sighed in unison. "I'll get it," Layla said, getting up to shoo Melanie away. But the person at the door was a very short boy with thick glasses and a shaved head with stubble rapidly clawing its way to the surface. He was holding a camera and a notepad, his arms wrapped around a messenger bag bulging with . . . something.
"Hi," he said.
"Um, hello," Layla greeted. "Are you lost? Because this is STEM club."
"No, no, I'm in exactly the right place!" the boy said, his tone excited, like a bundle of puppies in a play pen tripping over each other. "I'm Stephan Marriot from the Marbleton Messenger. It's the school newspaper, in case you didn't know that. I'm just here to ask you guys a few questions about the STEM club and what you do here." He flipped open the notepad and poised himself to write down their answers. "So how did this feel at first? Knowing that you had been accepted after such a rigorous test?"
"Relieved. That test was so hard," Dante groaned. "Some of it hadn't even been covered in class. I'm not sure why they did that."
"I felt that, too," Angelo said. "But now that I think about it, it's actually ridiculous."
"Pray tell," Stephan said, grinning widely with anticipation.
"I think the exam was unnecessary," Angelo said, his voice becoming more passionate. "There shouldn't be an exam to get into a STEM club. Science should be for everyone, and tests should be in classrooms on things that you've actually learned."
"Interesting," Stephan said, scribbling something down. "Have you ever been involved in any science-related things before?"
"I was in a few science fairs as a kid," Angelo said.
"Me too," Yujin said.
"No," Layla and Dante chorused.
"What do you do on a daily basis?" Stephan asked. "I bet you spend all day making awesome inventions!"
"No, we don't," the four chorused.
"That was quick," Stephan said, his voice teasing. "Almost too quick, like you rehearsed it."
"That's because it's such a common misconception," Angelo said. "According to a very niche group of people, we sit here in this very room, thinking about how we can invent our way to chaos, anarchy, and world domination. I just hate the way we get stereotyped as being mad scientists. We're just scientists."
"Oh. Thank you." Stephan rooted around in his bag and pulled out a plush toy. It was a teddy bear in a lab coat that made Yujin gasp with joy. "To finish the interview, I got you a gift. It's a mascot for your science club. I already started calling him Stanley the Science Bear, but you can rename him to anything you want."
"It's adorable!" Layla cooed.
"Fits the vibe so well," Angelo said. Dante eyed it with curiosity and suspicion. Something about it seemed . . . off, but he couldn't place it.
"Where do we put him?" Dante asked.
"That high shelf, so he doesn't get damaged by experiments," Angelo said.
"Great!" Yujin got a chair and placed Stanley the Science Bear onto a high shelf, so he would be able to watch them from above. "He looks so cute!"
"Yeah," Dante said, looking at the bear with nausea forcing itself upwards. "Cute."
(PAUSE)
Dante took the bear when the others weren't looking, shoving it into his bag and burying it underneath his school books. He peeked at it on the bus, and shut it immediately afterwards. That bear creeped him out.
"Mum, can I show you something?" he asked, when he had made sure his mother wasn't doing anything.
"Sure. What is it?" she asked.
"Something seems off about this bear mascot for our science club at school," Dante said. His mother took the bear out of his hands, turning it over. His brothers came into the room at that moment and froze.
"What are you doing?" George asked.
"There's something off about this teddy bear mascot," Dante said. "So I took it to Mum so I could get a second opinion."
"Dante's right. It's pretty weird. It looks out of place and like it doesn't belong anywhere," George said.
"And the bear looks weird, too," Logan said.
"George, Logan, go do homework," their mother ordered. "Dante, get me a screwdriver."
Dante went searching for the toolbox, his stomach sinking. It used to be his dad's but since his absence, nobody had touched it. He was going to break that strange purity that it held. But he did it anyway.
His mother sighed when he came back with what she had asked for. "Good job, Dante. I am so proud of you," she said, when the screwdriver was in her hand.
Dante froze. "I just . . . got a screwdriver."
"Not that." She paused. "Well, a little bit that, but also this." She removed the tiny lab coat and unscrewed the back. Clashing against the chocolate brown fur of the bear were two green batteries. There were also settings, such as rewind, pause and fast forward. "Dante, this bear is a hidden camera."
"Stephan was trying to spy on us with the gift!" Dante exclaimed, shock shifting into anger. "That - that - that lying, slimy snake!"
"Who's Stephan?"
"He's this reporter kid in our school for the school newspaper," Dante said.
"I'll turn it off and take the batteries out, honey," his mother said, removing the batteries from the bear like a vet removing fleas from a dog's behind. "It should be safe now."
"Thank you," Dante said. The bear, along with the batteries that came out of it and the lab coat, were stuffed into a plastic bag, which in turn was shoved into the every bottom of his school bag.
His friends weren't going to believe this.
(PAUSE)
Dante gathered his friends into an abandoned art room to show them what he (and his mother) had discovered about their 'adorable' mascot. "What the hell?" Layla asked.
"A discovery like this makes an adorable thing feel so sinister," Yujin whimpered.
"We need to take this to the head," Angelo said. "This is underhanded."
"He is such a snake," Dante sighed.
"Come on. Maybe she's at her office or something," Layla said, a grim look on her face as they went searching for Dr Violet.
They saw her eating a ham and cheese sandwich in the cafeteria and sat down with her. She looked . . . mildly surprised. "Is everything OK with you four?" she asked.
"No," Dante said. "We received something disturbing from someone who says they were from the school newspaper. The . . . Marbleton Messenger."
The headmistress put down her sandwich and stared at them. "You have my full attention."
Dante rattled off everything he remembered. "Recently, a very short boy named Stephan Marriot came into the room where we were meeting up and said he was here to ask us questions about the STEM club. When he left, he gave us this bear, as a mascot."
"I fail to see what the problem is here." Dr Violet's cold eyes, framed by half-moon glasses, stared through Dante.
"It's easier if I just show you." Dante produced the bear, positioning it so its back was to the headteacher. "This bear is a nanny cam."
"Oh, I see." A hand went to Dr Violet's mouth with shock. "Wait for me outside my office with the bear."
"Yes, Dr Violet," the four chimed, taking the many stairs up to Dr Violet's top floor office.
"The principal's office twice in one week," Angelo sighed. "This sucks."
"At least we're not being chased through the school by a slime monster," Layla said. They giggled at the memory of Melanie chasing them as other students screamed.
"And the pink thing is still going strong," Yujin said, thinking about all the people wearing pink to spite the prefects.
"I'm not a very superstitious person, but maybe the STEM club in this school is cursed," Dante said.
"That would imply that there were multiple STEM clubs that all met their ends," Angelo said. "This is the first STEM club the school has ever had, so this is much more like bad luck."
"And the bad luck has been given a prefect's badge," Yujin said. All four of them laughed hysterically, sitting down on the sofas outside Dr Violet's office and laughing some more.
"Mr Riva, Miss Ismail, Mr Rhodes, Miss Moon, come in, please," Dr Violet said, with a very sullen Stephan trudging behind her. The bright smile and demeanour was gone, replaced by a void of annoyance and sadness. The four got up and went into her office with Stephan. "Dante, would you mind going through everything again for me, now that Stephan is present?"
Dante went through everything, including getting out the bear and showing Stephan the batteries he'd taken out of it, and the settings that the bear had. The sullen expression became intrigued, then surprised, then terrified. "Anything to say to that, Marriot?" the head teacher asked.
"I was doing it for the sake of a presentation, showing all the best parts of every club," Stephan meekly justified.
"So you gave them a false gift that would actually spy on them, completely violating their right to privacy."
"Finding out that it was a camera was chilling," Dante said.
"How did you find that out, by the way?" Yujin asked.
Dante looked at his hands before staring Stephan down. "I had my suspicions, so I took it home and looked at it properly. My mother removed the lab coat and unscrewed the back. That was how I saw the batteries."
Stephan hung his head. "I'm sorry. I should have known better than to spy on you. I just wanted to know what you really do in there."
"But we already told you that," Layla said. "What was the point of asking us all those questions if you were going to spy on us to get the answers you wanted?"
"Quite right, Miss Ismail," Dr Violet said. "You four can go. Stephan and I will have our own conversation." When they heard this, Stephan whimpered with terror, his eyes pleading with Dante to stick up for him.
Dante ignored him.
(PAUSE)
Stephan's benefactor berated him for his failures over the phone. "What do you mean, they found out?" she snapped, as the intrepid reporter winced and held the phone away from his ear.
"This boy with braids had some feeling and took it home! There's nothing useful on that tape! And even if there was, I got reported for it!" Stephan told her. She swore and the line went silent.
"You didn't mention me at all, did you?"
"Of course not."
"Well, there's one silver lining in this. The next time I ask you for something, you'd better do it right, or I will ruin you."
And the benefactor hung up.

Avrupa, Morgan Stanley endeksine dayalı birinci ETP’sine merhaba diyor. ETP, Nisan ayında Almanya’nın Deutsche Börse XETRA’sında piyasaya sürülecek olan önde gelen 20 dijital varlığı izleyen yeni bir MSCI endeksine dayanacak. Pekala, endekste hangi altcoinler yer alıyor? ETP’de birtakım altcoinler hariç tutulurken, önde gelen kriptolar yer alıyor Dijital varlığa dayalı bir menkul değerler sağlayıcısı olan ETC Group, bugün Morgan Stanley’den alınan bir endekse dayalı olarak Avrupa’nın birinci endeks tabanlı kripto ETP’sini listeleyeceğini duyurdu. ETP, MSCI Digital Asset Select 20 ETP’ye dayalı olacak ve Nisan ayında Almanya’nın Deutsche Börse XETRA’sında piyasaya sürülecek. MSCI, endeksi bu ayın başlarında ETC Group’un girdileriyle geliştirdi ve her bir bileşeni azamî %30 ile sınırladı. Endeks, stablecoin’ler, kapalılık tokenlerini ve göğüs coin’lerini hariç tutuyor. Bunlar haricinde başkan kripto Bitcoin (BTC), önder altcoin Ethereaum (ETH) ve Solana (SOL) dahil olmak üzere 20 ‘lider dijital varlığın’ bedelini izliyor. ETP, endeks kompozisyonuna ve tartısına nazaran soğuk depoda yatırılan destek varlıklarla fizikî olarak desteklenecek. Standart menkul değer hesaplarına sahip yatırımcılar, listelendikten sonra pay senetleri yahut ETF’ler üzere eseri alıp satabilecekler. ETC Group’un CEO’su ve kurucusu Tim Bevan, bunun kripto piyasasındaki birinci gerçek geniş pazar endeksi ETP olduğunu söyledi. Bevan, endeksin kapsamının yeni ETP’yi yatırımcılar için ülkü bir varlık tahsis aracı haline getireceğini kaydetti. AB ve ETP’ler Avrupa’da birinci ETP, 2015’te piyasaya sürüldü. Bu yüzden Avrupa, çeşitli kripto borsalarında süreç gören eserler için uzun müddettir verimli bir yer oldu. cointahmin.com’dan takip ettiğiniz üzere, BTC’nin fiyatını izleyen bir eser olan Bitcoin Tracker One’ın piyasaya sürülmesinden bu yana, İsviçre, Fransa, Hollanda ve Almanya’daki Avrupa borsalarının her biri çeşitli dijital varlık ETP’lerini listeledi. Bununla birlikte, bu ETP’lerin sadece bir kısmı endekslere dayalıydı ve hiçbiri bir MSCI endeksine dayalı değildi. Morgan Stanley Capital International, dünya çapında çok çeşitli varlıkları kıyaslamak için temel bir araç misyonu gören endekslerin önde gelen sağlayıcısı pozisyonunda bulunuyor. MSCI endeksine dayalı bir ETP, Avrupa kripto sanayisi için kayda bedel bir ilerleme. Zira klasik finanstan gelen yatırımcılar için kripto piyasasını legalleştiriyor. MSCI tematik endeksler lideri Stephane Mattatia’ya nazaran, kripto piyasası süratle gelişiyor ve yatırımcıların kripto para ünitelerine erişim talebini artırıyor.

Art21 proudly presents an artist segment, featuring Theaster Gates, from the "Chicago" episode in the ninth season of the "Art in the Twenty-First Century" series.
"Chicago " premiered in September 2016 on PBS. Watch now on PBS and the PBS Video app: https://www.pbs.org/video/art-21-chic...
Theaster Gates first encountered creativity in the music of Black churches on his journey to becoming an urban planner, potter, and artist. Gates creates sculptures out of clay, tar, and renovated buildings, transforming the raw material of the South Side into radically reimagined vessels of opportunity for the community.
Establishing a virtuous circle between fine art and social progress, Gates strips dilapidated buildings of their components, transforming those elements into sculptures that act as bonds or investments, the proceeds of which are used to finance the rehabilitation of entire city blocks. Many of the artist’s works evoke his African-American identity and the broader struggle for civil rights, from sculptures incorporating fire hoses, to events organized around soul food, and choral performances by the experimental musical ensemble Black Monks of Mississippi, led by Gates himself.
