I would think yes as any animal that scavenges would have a higher rabies infection chance. Wasn’t absolutely sure so I found some sources.

I get the reason gOS only supports the pixel, its the most secure hardware. Would never want them to water down their security for anything. I would very much like fairPhone to meet or exceed gOS security demands. That way they could be paired together to achieve a true completely degoogled secure phone.

That’s cool. At least its degoogled. GOS’s security is a must for me though, after using it I don’t ever want to go without. But I’m glad fairPhone is offering alternatives.

So long and thanks for all the fish.

I really wanted one but it’s hardware isn’t supported by grapheneOS. I wish these two companies would partner up, that would be the best of both worlds.

Okay. Look. We both said a lot of things that you’re going to regret. But I think we can put our differences behind us. For science. You monster.

More healthcare doesn’t make billions of $/year for 4 corporations that own our government and who dictate our foreign and domestic policies.

Odd Fellows lodges were first documented in 1730 in England from which many organizations emerged.

While several unofficial Odd Fellows lodges had existed in New York City sometime in the period 1806 to 1818, the American Odd Fellows is regarded as being founded with Washington Lodge No 1 in Baltimore at the Seven Stars Tavern on April 26, 1819, by Thomas Wildey along with some associates who assembled in response to a newspaper advertisement. The following year, the lodge affiliated with the Independent Order of Oddfellows Manchester Unity was granted the authority to institute new lodges. Wildey had joined the Grand United Order of Oddfellows in 1804, then joined its splinter order, Independent Order of Oddfellows Manchester Unity, before immigrating to the United States in 1817.

Foundation

edit

In 1842, after an elementary dispute on whether the American lodges were to be involved in decision-making procedures, in a split along racial lines, some American Lodges formed with exclusively whites-only membership and a separate governing system from the English Order. In 1843, they changed the name of their organization to the Independent Order of Odd Fellows.[8]

19th century

edit

In the following years, lodges were instituted all over the country, first in the east and later in the west. After rejection from the Independent Order of Odd Fellows due to race, an African American sailor, Peter Ogden, petitioned the Grand United Order of Oddfellows for a charter which was granted.[11] Grand United Order of Odd Fellows in America are still headquartered in Philadelphia.[8]

On September 20, 1851, IOOF became the first national fraternity to accept both men and women when it formed the Daughters of Rebekah as an auxiliary organization. Schuyler Colfax (Vice President of the United States (1869–1873) under President Ulysses S. Grant) was the force behind the movement.[12][8] Both the Odd Fellows and Rebekahs have appendant branches known as Encampments and Patriarchs Militant.[13][14]

The American Civil War (1861–1865) shattered the IOOF in America; membership decreased and many lodges were unable to continue their work, especially in the southern states.[15] After the Civil War, with the beginning of industrialization, the deteriorating social circumstances brought large numbers of people to the IOOF and the lodges rallied.

Over the next half-century, also known as the “Golden age of fraternalism” in America,[8][16] the Odd Fellows became the largest among all fraternal organizations (at the time, even larger than Freemasonry).[8] By 1889, the IOOF had lodges in every American state.[17][18] Compared to Masonic lodges, membership in the Odd Fellows lodges tended to be more common among the lower middle class and skilled workers and less common among the wealthy white collar workers and professionals.[19]

In 1896, the World Almanac showed the Odd Fellows as the largest among all fraternal organizations.[16]

By the late nineteenth century, the Order had spread to most of the rest of the world, establishing lodges in the Americas, Australasia, and Europe. According to the Journal of the Annual Communication of the Sovereign Grand Lodge 1922, page 426, there were a reported 2,676,582 members.[20] While this data from 1921 may not be the exact zenith of its membership, the organization experienced a loss in membership of 23.5% between 1920 and 1930, explained in large part by the development of the commercial insurance industry,[21] and has continually declined.

20th century

edit

The Great Depression and the introduction of Franklin D. Roosevelt’s New Deal brought a decline in membership. During the depression, people could not afford Odd Fellows membership fees, and when the New Deal’s social reforms started to take effect, the need for the social work of the Odd Fellows declined.[15]

In 1971 the IOOF changed its constitution, removing its whites only clause. In 1979 the Order had 243,000 members.[22]

Some branches of the order (i.e., some countries) have allowed women to join the Odd Fellows itself, leading to the Rebekahs’ decline in importance. Also, the appendant branches and their degrees are, in some countries, becoming regarded as less important or too time-consuming, and are gradually being abandoned.[citation needed]

21st century

edit

Although there was a decline in membership in fraternal organizations in general during the 20th century, membership in the 21st century started to increase.[23]

The Odd Fellows scholarship has extended financial assistance to the youth for their education from time to time.[24]

The guy with the hat.

Right wingers love to redefine words to suit their feelings. Non good faith actors use tactics like this. Words have definitions. Doesn’t matter your feelings that you ascribe to them. Their definitions are not malleable. If someone starts their conversation with an already misleading premise they don’t deserve anything but the harshest truth. If your going to waste my time asking for me to define what a whole well defined political ideology “means to me” I’m going to oblige, you might not like my answer.

This one thinks there were three cycles of moon giving from our mother Fadomai. Ahnurr gave Fadomai her cubs. First was Alkosh, followed by Khenarthi, Magrus, Mara lastly there was S’rendarr.

During the second moon gift there was now Merrunz, Mafala, followed by Sangiin.

Although Ahnurr’s house was full, Alkosh and others wanted more cubs to bask in lights warmth.

So Fadomai gave her first cubs their wishes. Azurah, Nirni, Y’ffer, Masser, Secunda all joined with the light children.

Fadomai still had longing for small cubs so she fled to the void and one cub, Lorkhaj was given.

Exhausted, Fadomai knew her time of ending was near. So a gift was given to Nirni, for she desired to give cubs the light.

So it was that Nirni came to her brother Lorkhaj for she needed a new dwelling for her cubs. Lorkhaj did just so, forming the mortal realm. Some of Fadomai’s first cubs were imprisoned in the new realm. The second set of Fadomai’s cubs saw what had happened and did not follow.

Mayhaps was not just Nirni who was given the gift of cubs. So is said Azurah came down to one of Nirni’s cubs and shape his form most desirably, so log as they would be given their mother Fadomai’s Beauty, Ahnurr intelligence and Alkosh’s streingth.

Azurah found some of Nirni’s cubs in the forest and from them Khajiit were born under Masser and Secunda’s light.

Angered by Azurah’s decision to take so many cubs Nirni came to Y’ffer and ask for punishment. He did so turning the grasses to warm sands and forest to marsh.

Azurah loved her cubs and taught them the ways of the moons and the gift of shapes.

However not all her children were given the gifts of Azurah and favored Nirni. By her hand the fur was taken and the forest given. For Nirni also loved here cubs and their grandcubs.

Although maybe not M’aiq is very practical. He has no need for mysticism.

Words have definitions. There are these things called dictionaries that people can find these definitions in. In super short context its a far right ideology brought to mainstream politics by notable figures like Pinochet, Ronald Reagan and Margret Thatcher. Later embraced by Bill Clinton during the neoliberal takeover of the democratic party at the time when they turned their backs on the unions and people in favor of corporations and bankers. Neoliberalism differs from classical and social liberalism in that it is about freeing capital and not people. The article below explains all this in greater detail than I’m going to get into.

It is important to remember that just because a word shares the root liber latin for free these ideoligies differ greatly in their application and meaning and history.

Neoliberalism is just a fascist gateway drug. Fascism Lite, all the corporate rule half the stigma. This is just the eventuality of the last forty years.

$$$

He is selling off the country bit by bit. Pardoning conmen and criminals. Running crypto scams. Pissing off all our allies and burning those bridges. Intentionally crashing the economy. Undermining his own political authority and power on the world stage. Meeting with kremlen officials on the regular. Sending his thugs to Greenland to gin up support for his takeover/invasion. Saying he’s going to invade Canada. Ignoring the courts.

The list could go on for hours. The only thing that makes sense is he is a russian asset and his directive is to dismantle russia’s largest adversary. Turn old allies against the US and align with kim jong-un and putin.

putin likely promised to make him king. Krasnov has to dismantle everything from the inside first to rebuild the US in russias image.

All part of the plan. Krasnov doing putin proud.
