It’s not about their case for being there. It’s about their desire to be distinct from them. Harder to “other” and genocide your own people.

I just have memories of the early days of genetic sequencing research breakthroughs and the Israeli government started to order it’s scientists to sequence the Israeli and Palestinian DNA to “prove” their difference… only to very quickly learn they were almost identical, stop the program, and try and stop people from talking about it.

Without looking at the sources, I’m going to assume it’s because, genetically speaking, Palestinians and Israelis are almost identical.

Edit - yep… That’s the kicker.

Calling her a world leader is a stretch though.

“good morning cold dead hands 😘”

I just NEED all the liberals and centrists to remember shit like this anytime the right tries to get righteous about protecting children or claiming minority groups are grooming kids etc.

They literally don’t give a shit about harm to kids, thir “team” are the worst perpetrators of it and they don’t hold them accountable in the slightest.

I reckon. Birds are fuckin psycho.

Yes, and yes people should push for them to be better… But there’s far too much “bOtH sIdEs” that happens and then we get literal fascists in power.

My work, and many others in my area, have well being days. As well as sick days and annual leave.

You can take a well being day at any time for any reason. The main intent is that it’s a mental health day essentially. So we can call in sad, but you don’t have to say “I’m not coming in cause I’m sad”.

I agree in general, but I guess if you’re talking specifically about how some people feel like they shouldn’t be able to be drafted, I’d argue it’s less an issue than the idea of drafting in general.

Me opening thread after reading comic but not headline… ‘woah Savage, I thought project hail Mary had a great protagonist’

Omg… I think I’m showing my age 😅 I thought that was “ask jeeves” (pre google Internet search thing) and it was a joke about developers looking things up so the time on the job

It feels so weird, and a little scary, to see people praising brave journalism when they’re basically just staying historical facts… It’s that not normal journalism? 😅

I remember playing a hotseat game with my friend and his brothers ( I think heroes of might and magic 2) and I accidentally big toed the power button, just like in this picture 😅

Everyone was pretty gutted, although we then found out that autosave happened every turn, what a releif.

I understand the logic of doing the streak system, keep you engaged by threatening to lose your streak if you don’t do it every day, but it’s a double edged sword.

If I’d lost my streak though… I should just go “oh well” and call it a day/quit.

I deleted the app when they said they were going to fire translators for AI. But I have adhd and forgot, several days, even with reminders, to do it some days… It never ended up mattering because they let me keep my streak anyway

In no way defending landlords, but a family friend who inherited another property decided to rent it out. They used a property manager (through an agency) because they had their own full time job.

At some point they found out the property manager increased rent a decent amount, while the economy was going in the shitter, without informing them. When they found out they were like “wtf, why’d you do that?” they replied “because the market rate went up and if we don’t then it will impact how much we can charge for other properties”.

He told them to fuck off, fired them and brought the rent back to what it was.

I often wonder how many landlords don’t even know what’s going on with their properties and would probably disagree with what the property managers are doing. Not that that excuses it though…

This is one of those things that I feel like someone made up as a joke and it got out of hand.

Now that it exists though, I have no doubt people will have read about it and tried it

Maybe this is why articles are always saying “So and so SLAMS Such and such”. Nostalgia

I’ve been in FFFM before, but it was basically MF+1/2f and F+1/2F

Also the bold all caps FIVE… Like, can you beleive an obese person can have multiple people interested in them?
