Abstract SubjectivismAbstract Subjectivism!<br> <br> 2025 年 2 月 22 日、午後 4:06<br> <br> In the philosophy of art, subjectivism is the belief that art should capture and reflect the subjective experience of both the artist and the viewer, turning the work of art into a mirror. "Abstract Subjectivism" is a photographic art form that begins with traditional photography, using an image as its foundation. Through intensive editing, the photo is transformed into abstract, geometrically asymmetric forms that reflect the artist's emotional and psychological state. Intended as a healing mechanism, the artist expresses perceived flaws and inner conflicts through seemingly chaotic subjects called "errors," turning these imperfections into meaningful experiences. This process mirrors artistic subjectivism, creating catharsis by transferring the value of imperfection into the qualities that produce a work of art.<br> <br> <br> 曼農可<br> <br> I am not a monster. I support the freedom to live and enjoy the possibilities of existence.<br> <br> I belong to a diverse community of free individuals who tolerate each other through mutual influence inspiring one another on a humane level through mutual identification without ever losing our own independence.<br> <br> No nationalism, no violence, no war. <br> <br> <br> <a

Oscar LarssonOn Monday, I got these ten bowls back from an exhibition. They are called "Reparation inom slöjden" (In English: Repair in Slojd (or Crafts🤔)). It's a piece all about repair and the right to repair. Most of these bowls have been repaired using a method that has been used historically here in Sweden and around the world by ordinary people. This demonstrates that repair is a skill everyone can learn and apply, even today.<br> <br> This connection between historical repair practices and modern repair hobbies is evident in my own interest in repairing electronics. Just as people in the past used simple methods to fix everyday items, today we often only need a basic understanding and a search engine to repair many issues. The main challenge now is accessing spare parts. Previously, a lot of things were more mechanical and easier to repair in a personalized and fun way. By embracing the principles of repair from the past and driving companies to provide spare parts, we can make a big difference in this world. And that's really what this piece is all about.<br> <br> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/righttorepair?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#righttorepair</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/art?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#art</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/crafts?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#crafts</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/repair?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#repair</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/design?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#design</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/slöjd?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#slöjd</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/slojd?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#slojd</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/woodturning?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#woodturning</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/sörmlänskthantverk?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#sörmlänskthantverk</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/bowl?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#bowl</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/turning?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#turning</a> <a href="https://pixelfed.social/discover/tags/svarvning?src=hash" class="u-url hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#svarvning</a>
Marcus Jaschen<p>January 26th.<br><br>Yesterday, I gained access to some branches and trunks of a black <a href="https://social.marcusjaschen.com/tags/alder" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>alder</span></a> tree. I cut these into manageable pieces and sealed the ends with <a href="https://social.marcusjaschen.com/tags/anchorseal" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Anchorseal</span></a> (a wax solution). These pieces are now meant to dry slowly without cracking. Eventually, I plan to turn them into items like bowls or vases on a lathe.<br><br><a href="https://social.marcusjaschen.com/tags/woodworking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Woodworking</span></a> <a href="https://social.marcusjaschen.com/tags/woodturning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Woodturning</span></a> <a href="https://social.marcusjaschen.com/tags/turning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Turning</span></a> <a href="https://social.marcusjaschen.com/tags/lathe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Lathe</span></a></p>
Phil Brandvold<p>Okay <a href="https://techtoots.com/tags/woodworking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>woodworking</span></a> and <a href="https://techtoots.com/tags/turning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>turning</span></a> peeps. I have a lathe but haven’t set it up yet. However I just had to have a crabapple tree removed as it was dying and close to the house. I had the tree service guys leave me the bigger branches and I’d like to use some of it for lathe projects before splitting the rest for firewood. What are some good beginner projects on a <a href="https://techtoots.com/tags/lathe" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>lathe</span></a> and what size blanks should I be making?</p>
Chuck Darwin<p>Stephen Wolfe grew up in Napa, California, <br>and his father was an admirer of the right-wing pundit and erstwhile GOP presidential candidate Pat Buchanan. </p><p>After attending West Point and serving in the Army, Wolfe earned advanced degrees before leaving academia to <br>“do the Wendell Berry thing” <br>in North Carolina with his wife and four kids.</p><p>Over the summer, Wolfe, 41, agreed to speak with me on the condition that I refer to him as “Dr. Wolfe” <br>and call him an “expert on Christian nationalism.” </p><p>The Dr. Wolfe I spoke with was a more muted version of the firebrand I’d watched online. </p><p>He said his ideal version of America would be led by a Caesar figure. </p><p>Gay marriage would be strictly prohibited. </p><p>Women would not be allowed to vote<br>—instead, men would vote for their households.</p><p>When I brought up the bit from his book about heretics being killed, he grew annoyed.</p><p> “I do think it’s permissible, in principle, for a state to suppress theological heresy, <br>but that doesn’t mean that it’s prudent or proper, <br>suitable in every circumstance or every tradition or way of life.” </p><p>The Founding Fathers, he added, had encouraged religious liberty, <br>so killing heretics would not be appropriate in the United States that we inhabit.</p><p>We turned to remarks he had made at a recent conference convened by Brian Sauvé:<br> “I think we need to reflect on this idea of Judeo-Christianity, <br>or Judeo-Christian worldview, <br>or Judeo-Christian whatever, <br>and really eradicate that from our thinking. </p><p>Because if we say that America is a <br>Judeo-Christian country, <br>then it can’t be a Christian country, okay?” </p><p>What role, I asked him, would Jews play? </p><p>After a deep sigh, he told me that they would be allowed to “exercise their religion freely.”</p><p>We spoke a week before Vance’s RNC speech, <br>and Wolfe’s remarks helped me understand what the TheoBros heard in Vance’s phrase about <br>"America as a people". </p><p>The founders, Wolfe noted, intended for their country to be “Anglo-Protestant with an American inflection.” </p><p>America, he continued, is “a place of settlement and rootedness, <br>but it’s an open ethnicity in which people can become one of us.” </p><p>Which is to say that, like some others, Wolfe is not necessarily opposed to the idea of nonwhite people in America<br>—as long as they agree to assimilate to the Anglo-Protestant dominant culture.</p><p>In this telling, America is not a pluralistic society at all, <br>but rather one in which there exists an uneasy truce between Christians and those they reluctantly tolerate. </p><p>Toward the end of our conversation, I asked Wolfe what motivated him. </p><p>“I want Christians to be more assertive and to recognize the Christian heritage of the American way of life, <br>and to seek to restore that,” he said. </p><p>“This is a Christian country, and we’ve got to work to restore it to what it once was"</p><p>In his keynote address at Sauvé’s conference, titled “Why Multicultural Pluralism Fails and What to Build Instead,” <br>Wolfe called the concept of America as a melting pot <br>“an early 20th-century idea cooked up by a Jew in New York who despised the confident Anglo-Protestant establishment.” </p><p>WASPs were the “distinct ethnicity” of America, he insisted, </p><p>and America should only welcome those who aspired to assimilate. </p><p>As he put it, “This is our homeland, and we welcome you on the condition of conformity.” </p><p>Or, in the words of JD Vance, America “is a group of people.”</p><p><a href="https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2024/09/theobros-jd-vance-christian-nationalism/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no"

Chuck Darwin<p>William Wolfe served in the Trump administration <br>both as the deputy assistant secretary of defense <br>and as director of House affairs at the Department of State. </p><p>He is also an alumnus of <a href="https://c.im/tags/Heritage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Heritage</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Action" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Action</span></a>, <br>a sister organization of the Heritage Foundation, <br>the arch-conservative think tank behind Project 2025, <br>whose chief architect, Russell Vought, posted on X that he was “proud to work with @William_E_Wolfe on scoping out a sound Christian Nationalism.” </p><p>A few months later, the Bucks County Beacon uncovered a lengthy online manifesto on the goals of Christian nationalists. </p><p>The document, which listed Wolfe and Joel Webbon as contributing editors <br>and Oklahoma Sen. <a href="https://c.im/tags/Dusty" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Dusty</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Deevers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Deevers</span></a> as a co-author, <br>called for “civil magistrates” to usher in 💥“the establishment of the Ten Commandments as the foundational law of the nation.”</p><p>The manifesto doesn’t specify exactly how Christian nationalists should achieve these goals. </p><p>As Tabachnick, the extremism researcher, interprets it, the TheoBros are imagining a utopia where “they are going to be free to be entrepreneurs in all different senses, <br>including the tech world that they’re mixing with so freely.” </p><p>The key, she said, is that authoritarianism “is required to have the utopian vision.”</p><p>Last year, the extremism watchdog group Right Wing Watch posted a video of Wolfe quoting a scripture passage. <br>There are times when “even the God of peace proclaims by his providence, ‘to arms!’” he says. </p><p>“If we have ever lived in a point of time in American history since then that we could argue that now is a time ‘to arms’ again, I think we are getting close.”</p><p>William Wolfe’s Christian nationalism manifesto made the rounds on social media, <br>but in mainstream conservative outlets, <br>it was <a

rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Wolfe</span></a> <br>(no relation to William)<br>who brought TheoBro ideas to the wider world. </p><p>In his book, which was praised by editors at the Federalist and the American Conservative, <br>Wolfe paints America as a “<a href="https://c.im/tags/gynocracy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>gynocracy</span></a>” whose government and culture have been feminized by unhappy women leaders. <br>(Sound familiar?) </p><p>He has stated on X that women should not have the right to vote, and that “interethnic” marriage can be “sinful.”</p><p> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Andrew" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"

Ted Cruz (R-Texas) and Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton.</p><p>Like many TheoBros, <br>Isker sees much to like in Vance. </p><p>In early July, before Trump announced his running mate, Isker referred to him as <br>“Senator JD Vance (R-Heritage America).” </p><p>In late July, he posted a video of Vance and told his 29,000 followers, <br>“You need to double down on childless cat lady discourse. <br>Kamala sees happy, large families and hates them. <br>She wants them destroyed. <br>She wants you to never be able to have this. <br>She is a nasty, bitter harridan who hates all that is true, good, and beautiful.”</p><p>One problem is that there simply are not enough TheoBros to populate Christian communities like the one Isker plans to move to. </p><p>Enter <a

Convention that it, <br>the largest of all Protestant denominations in the United States, <br>has fallen prey to the corrupting forces of liberalism. </p><p>Baptists are only the beginning. </p><p>Wolfe wants to win over the entire evangelical mainstream, <br>which he and other TheoBros refer to as “<a href="https://c.im/tags/Big" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener

he posted on X, <br>“Once you realize that Big Eva thinks it’s a bigger sin to desire to preserve the customs, heritage, values, and cultural homogeneity of your own nation <br>than to kill the unborn

Chuck Darwin<p>In August, Joel Webon remarked on his show that “a lot of people are gonna be surprised” when <br>“you’re spending eternity worshipping Christ next to Stonewall Jackson and Robert E. Lee and Jonathan Edwards, <br>and, you know, George Whitefield and Martin Luther King Jr.’s in hell.”</p><p>Webbon is so impressed by his own audacity that he maintains an online list of all the controversies in which he’s become embroiled. </p><p>There, he explains why he called Christian men living in California “stupid” </p><p>(they could just move to a red state); </p><p>why he once ordered his wife to stop reading a book on theology </p><p>(he didn’t want her exposed to beliefs that were different from his own); </p><p>and why he believes in a patriarchal household structure </p><p>(the Bible says so). </p><p>Webbon, who is planning to host a conference in Texas next spring called <br>“Christ Is King: How to Defeat Trashworld!” <br>maintains that a <br>“return to the Constitution is impossible” <br>and that the only viable alternative is the Ten Commandments.</p><p>Some of Wilson’s other acolytes are attempting to create their own versions of Moscow, Idaho. </p><p>Take <a href="https://c.im/tags/Brian" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Brian</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Sauv%C3%A9" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Sauvé</span></a>, a 33-year-old Christian recording artist, podcaster, and pastor of "Refuge Church" in Ogden, Utah. </p><p>Like Webbon, Sauvé wasn’t always reformed<br>—Refuge began as a charismatic Christian church. </p><p>After the lead pastor resigned in a scandal, the then-24-year-old Sauvé ascended to take his place, <br>immersed himself in reformed theology, <br>and moved the church in a new direction. </p><p>Today, he presides over a Moscow-esque ecosystem: <br>a publishing house called "New Christendom Press", <br>as well as "St. Brendan’s Classical Christian Academy", <br>modeled after those in Wilson’s network. </p><p>“Can you feel it in the sails?” reads St. Brendan’s website. </p><p>“The stiff breeze out of Moscow, Idaho? -- We can.”</p><p>On his three podcasts and to his more than 53,000 followers on X, Sauvé regularly states that women’s primary function is to bear children. </p><p>In July, after Vance’s comments about “childless cat ladies who are miserable” began widely circulating, <br>he posted: <br>“It is desperately sad to think of all the intentionally barren women who will find themselves totally alone in their 50s, <br>realizing their irreversible mistake. </p><p>They will wish they could trade it all<br>—money, vacations, independence, all of it<br>—for children they can now never have.”</p><p>But unlike more mainstream conservatives, <br>Sauvé does not even pretend to champion the idea of a <br>Judeo-Christian nation. </p><p>He posted in July, “[O]ur political system is heavily influenced by Jews who reject Christ and embrace all manner of evils.”</p><p> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Mefferd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"

Chuck Darwin<p>In subsequent videos, Douglas Wilson tackled women’s culpability in rape, <br>the dark side of empathy, <br>and the virtues of “something called the patriarchy<br>—that which, according to our <br>soi-disant and lisping political theorists, must be smashed...<br>Only they say something like ‘thmasth.’”</p><p>Wilson has used his platforms to anoint the next generation of ultraconservative reformed Christian pastors, <br>all of whom happened to be men. </p><p><a href="https://c.im/tags/Mefferd" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Mefferd</span></a>, the conservative Christian journalist, told me that Wolfe’s "The Case for Christian Nationalism"<br>got traction in mainstream Christian circles in part <br>“because Doug Wilson endorsed.” </p><p>Another Wilson protégé is <a href="https://c.im/tags/Joel" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Joel</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Webbon" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Webbon</span></a>, a 38-year-old pastor who hosts a podcast and YouTube show, <br>which he films from a wingback leather chair in a book-lined room.</p><p>Webbon wasn’t always reformed<br>— he is an alumnus of a Bible school run by a New Apostolic Reformation affiliated outfit, <br>— which he now considers “straight-up heretical.” </p><p>In his 20s, he broke from the group, moved to Texas, and started his own church. </p><p>In a video from a few years ago, Webbon credited Wilson with emboldening him to say whatever he wanted<br>—like telling a guest that the Founding Fathers weren’t responsible for the slave trade because Africans had done the actual kidnapping and enslaving.</p><p>For Webbon, it was intensely liberating to watch Wilson speak in public without worrying about being canceled. </p><p>“You stay in your little corner, you stay on your little leash, because you’re like, I don’t know what will happen,” Webbon said. </p><p>“But when you see some other guy do it, and you’re like<br>—that’s the worst thing that can happen? </p><p>Vice writes an article about you?

Chuck Darwin<p>Douglas Wilson's influence over Moscow Idaho has not been without controversy. </p><p>In a 2021 Vice exposé, former members of "Christ Church" alleged that ministers had encouraged them to stay in abusive relationships. </p><p>That tracks with Wilson’s 1999 book, "Fidelity: How to Be a One-Woman Man", <br>in which he wrote, </p><p>“The sexual act cannot be made into an egalitarian pleasuring party. <br>A man penetrates, conquers, colonizes, plants. <br>A woman receives, surrenders, accepts.” </p><p>For that reason, Wilson wrote, the dynamic of a <a href="https://c.im/tags/dominant" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dominant</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/man" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>man</span></a> and a <a href="https://c.im/tags/submissive" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>submissive</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/woman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>woman</span></a> is <br>“an erotic necessity.” </p><p>(Wilson called allegations of the church urging women to stay in abusive relationships “categorically false.”)</p><p>Wilson has also promoted another form of dominance. </p><p>In the 1996 book "Southern Slavery: As It Was", <br>Wilson and his co-author argued that the master-slave dynamic was “a relationship based upon mutual affection and confidence,” <br>-- and “there has never been a multi-racial society which has existed with such mutual intimacy and harmony in the history of the world” as that of the antebellum South. </p><p>(In a 2020 blog post, Wilson said he now allows that while “the benevolent master is not a myth, the idea of the horrific taskmaster is no abolitionist myth either.”) </p><p>When I asked Wilson about his controversial statements, he likened himself to a chef who strategically deploys jalapeno peppers: </p><p>“Then some of my enemies online have combed through my writings, have gathered up all the jalapenos and put them on one Ritz cracker.”</p><p>In July, at the "National Conservatism Conference"<br> in Washington, DC, Wilson shared the stage with Sens. Josh <a href="https://c.im/tags/Hawley" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Hawley</span></a> (R-Mo.), <br>Ron <a href="https://c.im/tags/Johnson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Johnson</span></a> (R-Wis.), <br>and Mike <a href="https://c.im/tags/Lee" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Lee</span></a> (R-Utah), <br>as well as <a href="https://c.im/tags/Vance" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Vance</span></a>, <br>who auditioned his “America is a people” bit a week before his star turn at the GOP convention. </p><p>Wilson agrees with Vance’s suggestion that children should be allotted votes<br> -- managed by their parents. </p><p>“I would like to see elections where households vote,” he told me. </p><p>Men, as the heads of households, would actually cast the votes. </p><p>Though he believes that women’s suffrage was “a mistake,” <br>he would allow a special exception for single mothers.</p><p>Wilson offered the crowd a few one-liners <br>(“I’m a Presbyterian, not a Lesbyterian”), </p><p>but mostly, he talked about the persecution of Christians:</p><p> “It used to be that the sexually troubled had to keep their kinks hidden away in the closet,” he mused. </p><p>“Now it is the conservative Christian who needs to keep his virtues hidden in the recesses of the closet.” </p><p>After the "National Conservatism Conference", Wilson appeared at the "Believers’ Summit", <br>which was headlined by <a href="https://c.im/tags/Trump" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Trump</span></a> and hosted by the conservative political group <a href="https://c.im/tags/Turning" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Turning</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Point" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Point</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/USA" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>USA</span></a>.</p><p>But it’s not just conferences and interviews with the likes of <a href="https://c.im/tags/Tucker" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Tucker</span></a> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Carlson" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Carlson</span></a> where Wilson promotes his ideas. </p><p>He has a blog, a podcast, and a YouTube channel, thanks mostly to the urging of his children and younger colleagues. </p><p>One example is that every year since 2018, Wilson has been celebrating what he calls <br>No Quarter November: </p><p>“The month where we say out loud what everyone is thinking.” </p><p>In a 2023 video, which was the brainchild of one of his sons, Wilson sits at a sumptuously appointed Thanksgiving table, <br>surrounded by his children and grandchildren, <br>and addresses the camera. </p><p>“If you think of my blog as a shotgun,” he says, <br>“this is the month when I saw off all my typical, careful qualifications and blast away with a double-barreled shorty.” </p><p>His wife, clad in an apron, brings out a turkey and places it in front of him, <br>and then the tranquil scene is interrupted by a blaring alarm and a glowing red “perimeter breach” sign. </p><p>Wilson excuses himself, heads to his garage, and straps on a <a href="https://c.im/tags/flamethrower" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>flamethrower</span></a>. </p><p>After using it to light a cigar, he aims the fire at cardboard cutouts of Disney princesses Elsa and Ariel, and the logos of Instagram, TikTok, Twitter, and Netflix.</p><p>Wilson’s willingness to make campy content sets him apart, says Rachel Tabachnick, <br>an extremism researcher who has been studying Christian nationalism for decades. </p><p>“Instead of a crotchety old guy talking about stoning people, he’s like, super cool,” she says. “He’s witty.”</p><p> <a href="https://c.im/tags/Douglas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer"
