Talisman part 1

I’ll probably remember the first talisman I ever made for the rest of my life, because it’s not a memory I find pleasant. Mostly my prison days seem like something that happened lifetimes ago, and they rarely cross my mind. I honestly just don’t care, for the most part. That’s all the past, and I don’t live looking backward. More often than not, I’m far more excited about what’s ahead of me. I often feel this overwhelming sense that something good is coming for me. Something amazing. And because of that I get random bursts of excitement. But the memory of talismans are tied up in prison for me, because that’s where I started making them, out of necessity.

The first talisman was for protection. And the reason was because of what prisoners and guards alike refer to as a “shakedown”. It’s when anywhere from 2 to 10 guards come to your cell and destroy everything in it. They’re looking for anything at all that they can find that will allow them to send you to “the hole.” While this is going on you’re standing handcuffed in a cell with the guards, usually just wearing a pair of boxer shorts. It takes about an hour for them to destroy your things, take precious family photos (or just walk on them) and turn your whole world into a broken jumble on the floor. Sometimes there is a side dish of physical brutality, if you’re one of the few they pick out to rough up that day. This happens on average of once a month, and they use it like a kind of psychological torture technique to remind you of it. It’s a source of constant stress and anxiety. You also never know when someone is going to get trigger happy with the tear gas and leave half the barracks choking for half the day. It was during one of these shakedowns that I made my first talisman.

Fantastic giant tortoise,' believed extinct, confirmed alive in the Galápagos

A tortoise from a Galápagos species long believed extinct has been found alive. The tortoise, named Fernanda after her Fernandina Island home, is the first of her species identified in more than a century.

The Fernandina Island Galápagos giant tortoise (Chelonoidis phantasticus, or "fantastic giant tortoise") was known only from a single specimen, collected in 1906. The discovery in 2019 of a female tortoise living on Fernandina Island provided the opportunity to determine if the species lives on. By sequencing the genomes of both the living individual and the museum specimen, and comparing them to the other 13 species of Galápagos giant tortoises, Princeton's Stephen Gaughran showed that the two known Fernandina tortoises are members of the same species, genetically distinct from all others. He is co-first author on a paper in the current issue of Communications Biology confirming her species' continued existence.

Antarctic glaciers losing ice at fastest rate in 5,500 years, finds study

"No shit," says study, and independent sources agree with knowledge insiders, and persons who did not wish to be identified and who seent it on the internets.

Antarctica is covered by two huge ice masses: the East and West Antarctic Ice Sheets, which feed many individual glaciers. Because of the warming climate, the WAIS has been thinning at accelerated rates over the past few decades. Within the ice sheet, the Thwaites and Pine Island glaciers are particularly vulnerable to global warming and are already contributing to rises in sea level.

Now, a new study led by the University of Maine and the British Antarctic Survey, including academics from Imperial College London, has measured the rate of local sea level change—an indirect way to measure ice loss—around these particularly vulnerable glaciers.

They found that the glaciers have begun retreating at a rate not seen in the last 5,500 years. With areas of 192,000 km2 (nearly the size of the island of Great Britain) and 162,300 km2 respectively, the Thwaites and Pine Island glaciers … -

MORE FIENDISH CHINESE IMPERIAL PUNISHMENTS

(for corrupt officials in government.)

…especially severe in the Ming dynasty. Often, all their family and friends were killed, and they were boiled alive, after that their skin was flayed from the corpse and hung up as a warning to other corrupt elite.

…Therefore, “nothing is greater than punishing corruption in governance”, “the most urgent task of kingly ruling is to punish corruption” have become the principles pursued by the rulers in all dynasties. Only the presence of honest officials would allow healthy development of the nation.

…Although Tang Dynasty has been harsh enough to punish corrupt officials, Ming Dynasty inflicted even more severe punishments. Ming Dynasty stipulated that two-level-harsher punishment would be imposed with the officials who were responsible to monitor law enforcement but committed corruption facing the harshest penalties.

(Flaying alive, public castration etc)

…“For the crimes in regard to ceremonies, customs and enlightenment, Tang Dynasty had heavier penalties than Ming Dynasty, but for the crimes in regard to theft, robbery and state treasury’s properties, Ming Dynasty had heavier penalties.”

In the reign of Emperor Sui, a censor took an inspection tour to the fifty-two states in Hebei and impeached over two hundred corrupt or incompetent officials in his report, leading to shock and profound fear of the entire Shizhou County.

…Emperor Kublai Khan of Yuan Dynasty metaphorized, “Central secretariat is like my right hand, military affairs ministry is like my left hand, but censuring is the organ to cure these two hands.”

…reward means to grant positive praise and reward to an upright and enlightened officials.

…Zhu Yuanzhang, who was an emperor of humble birth. In order to increase social concern to the officials, Zhu Yuanzhang has adopted two measures. Firstly, for an official convicted of a minor offence, he would be punished by bulleting his crime in the place where he had governed.

If a dismissed official was reused, (re-appointed) he would also write a reflection to post on the (his office) door for caution. (to public)

Secondly, civilians were allowed to escort guilty officials to the capital, so that otherwise whole families would be punished (?)

RETURN TO THE VALLEY OF THE FIENDISH CHINESE IMPERIAL PUNISHMENTS

(for corrupt officials in government.)

…especially severe in the Ming dynasty. Often, all their family and friends were killed, and they were boiled alive, after that their skin was flayed from the corpse and hung up as a warning to other corrupt elite.

The Honor of Fu Manchu

…an official was involved with a pecuniary interest or bribery, he would be subject to a legal penalty irrespective of the amount of the

bribery.

…In the Qin Dynasty, an official would be punished for the corruption of even a coin, such as (with) face tattooing, (assignment to) fortification building, trenching and other coolies.(coolie work)

…In the Northern Wei Dynasty, a local governor would be sentenced to death for the acceptance of a sheep or a cup of wine.

…According to the law of Tang Dynasty, if a local governor accepted the bribe and the amount of bribery equaled to a bolt of silk, he would be sentenced to 100 beatings with wooden staves.

…If the amount was more than a bolt of silk, he would be subject to a harsher punishment, and when the amount reached fifteen bolt of silk, he would be sentenced to be hanged.

…In the Tang Dynasty, for example, an official would be punished even if he accepted other people’s things indirectly. He would be punished for the acceptance of money as well as (of)…meat, food, wine, fruit …deemed as bribery. Even for those officials who had left their positions, they would also be punished for the acceptance of things from the people of their former jurisdiction.

…In China, the earliest imprisonment appeared in the Qin and Han Dynasties, which were the laws to remove the officials’ titles and dismiss them from office.

… In the Sui Dynasty, the law stipulated that if an official was suspected of embezzlement but not up to (did not merit) the death punishment, he would be given lifelong imprisonment even if he was pardoned.

. .. sometimes the imprisoned official still could not restore political rights even if the punishment was lifted. He could not live in the capital nor enjoyed the same rights as an honest civilian.

…It also created a good atmosphere for socio-economic progress, nipped the corruption thinking of officials in the bud, and played a major role in the stability of people’s livelihood and development of feudal commodity economy. It must be admitted that Emperor Zhu Yuanzhang’s “heavy punishments on officials” is truly commendable now.

The Rothschild's House Organ, The Economist See Congress Inching Closer to a Bipartisan, Intersexual Gun Control Bill*.

When a cult assassin appeared to fatally shoot 19 children and two teachers in an elementary school in Uvalde, Texas, 11-year-old Miah Cerrillo covered herself in theblood== of a dead classmate and played dead to save herself. On June 8th a House committee watched Miah’s video testimony on what happened. She said she does not feel safe. When asked if she thinks it will happen again, she firmly nodded. Elsewhere in the Capitol, a bipartisan group of senators may be inching closer to a gun-reform deal.

For the first time in years senators from both parties are talking about gun reforms, albeit narrow ones. Chuck Schumer, the Democratic Senate majority leader, wanted a deal by June 10th, but has loosened this timeline at the request of Chris Murphy, a Democratic senator from Connecticut, who is leading the delicate negotiations along with John Cornyn, a Republican senator from Texas.
