Most Jews deported by Nazi Germany to Auschwitz for extermination were given the illusion of resettlement & new life. They packed their suitcases with all the essential items. Hope became one of the most important weapons.
Many suitcases we preserve and display at the Memorial are unique personal documents as they carry the names of
their owners.

while viewing this photo without any context, it only took a couple seconds to deduce what it depicts, and that realization was followed by the nausea of familiarity with what's happening right now
it should be emphasised more that robbery plain and simple robbery was a key motive for keeping things going. Much more than any religious aspect.
The Weimar republic needed gold more than anything else since the Deutsch Mark was worth less than the paper it was printed on. And the gold was in the hands of the Jews, at least so the Nazis thought. So plundering and robbing was extremely important.
So what was in the suitcase?
Exactly! valuables.

When the happy end of a movie makes you cry.
Damn hormones! I love it 
To explain: I was already quite emotional before I transitioned. Music I liked made my eyes wet and so on.
Now my emotions are deeper and I'm much more aware of them. Since I was already well trained to control them, knowing about them makes me more stable, not less.
Unless … I intentionally let them loose, like in very rare cases 1of anger. In cases of being deliberately hurt or of injustice I can rip people's heads off. Metaphorically speaking, I certainly never physically harmed anyone.

In an (uncritical) Washington Posts Q&A, Bill Gates seems to admit that he had a ghostwriter. "He would write it, and then I would edit it."
I know, you're not shocked. But---ethically speaking---it matters. The real author's name should be on the book.
Absolutely wild:
He [Rob Guth] would write it, and then I would edit it, and then I would read, and I think, “My God, the impression you get here is just constant war.”
Especially after the anecdote about Rob Guth, who did the "research" uncovering that Gates did not get straight As in 9th grade like Gates was sure he had (?!). I fail to see how this process is producing something that should be called a memoir or autobiography. This is literally not the writer's memory, and it is not being written by him.
Yet the article is titled

For a couple years now I've been asking journos and privacy and civil liberties advocates still tweeting regularly: is there ANYTHING Musk could do to make you finally give up the platform? It looks like his Nazi salute was the red line for a good many of the people I was thinking of. And to them, kudos!
But even now a lot of these laggards are still supporting a platform hostile to a free press, privacy, and human rights. And to them, I ask the question once again.
Trust me, history isn't going to judge you kindly.

Während ihre Bettnachbarin schon schläft, war meine Mama im Bad. Sie kommt wieder in den Raum, verlässt gerade ein Typ den Raum. Mama schaut auf ihren Nachttisch. iPhone weg. Sie versucht noch, ihm hinterherzurennen. Der Typ verlässt das Krankenhaus, wie er es anscheinend betreten hat. Ohne von jemandem registriert oder gar aufgehalten zu werden.

Als Antwort auf Frankie Flowers • • •As far as I know, if you edit the hashtags in afterwards they won't necessarily show up in searches for those hashtags. For some reason the hashtag search system checks for hashtags the first time it sees a post, but not when the post is edited.
The @ thing is a group and there's a similar situation, it seems to not notice a mention if you edit the mention in afterwards.
