If only the situation were even that “good” for Palestine. It’s been an occupied territory by Isreal for years - long before last Oct. There already are “border fences” - Gaza has been under blockade by Isreal for at least 2 decades, restricting any movement of Palestinians. I recommend having a look at a map to see just how dire the situation is for Palestine when they have Isreal right in the middle and all around simultaneously.

Palestine isn’t even recognized as a country by several, including - conveniently - Isreal and the US.

So, neither of those proposed alternatives would really be a good argument to Israel I’m afraid.

Source for those numbers?

I picked up a love of curry sauce or garlic sauce on my fries during my time living in London.

Those folks do fast food right - cheap, easy to find, and greasy.

Might have misunderstood the wording - unless you do a lot of sleeping during working hours?

Of water, right?

Right?

We’ve been using famcal for this for years and it works pretty well. There’s probably better, more robust options out there, but it’s free and does everything we need it to so no complaints

Yeah, I hate this rhetoric in general of “this is how it has to be done, we never deviate from the way we’ve always done it”.

Cause the status quo has just been great, hasn’t it everyone? What “worked” in all previous instances of less than 50 presidencies over the span of almost 250 years will surely continue to work in every context of the modern and future eras. Surely.

Never take time for granted - expect you’ll have less of it than you want or need.

It can really help with getting priorities straight - whether that’s with work or with your personal life. Where is it exactly you want to spend the most valuable and limited resource you have? Your time?

Plenty of adult jokes and themes that toe the line, but subtle enough to go over the head of any kid that doesn’t already get it.

Watched recently with my 8 year old and while it’s certainly still a justifiable classic, there’s still some things that are pretty problematic in this movie that made it a challenging watch with a kid…

Also the dude that wrote the John Dies at the End book series. David Wong.

Yeah, malicious compliance is likely the quickest route to getting things resolved on your terms

Any company taking 2FA seriously will either compensate you for the requirements to fulfill that security, or provide you with the devices necessary. I used to work at Duo. I currently work for another company that does more or less the same thing. Your company’s security team will do whatever it takes to get you compliant because not doing that is on them and not you.

It’s honestly wild for a company to allow an employee to be on the verge of locked out of critical services and not be resolving that on their own. They have the metrics in duo to be able to see that you have no viable device to 2FA with.

These are pretty cool, but would have been cooler with the actual Bebop characters instead of just looking like them.

That’s correct.

Boast is interesting because it’s an activated ability (cost:effect) that can only be activated when a condition is met, like a triggered ability.

As long as the first activation happened while the condition was met (the creature attacked this turn) the effect from the ability can be copied before it finishes resolving.

Triggered and activated abilities can be divided into two parts: condition, and effect. For activated abilities, the condition is a specific cost being paid and is separated from the effect by a colon, while triggered abilities just happen whenever a specified criteria is met. When copying one of these abilities, you only ever copy the effect, not the condition.

So if you copy an ability that says “whenever x happens, do y” you get y effect twice without having to meet the x condition a second time. If you copy an ability that says “do x: get y effect” you get y effect without having to do x a second time.

Hope that makes sense!

There is a light af the end of the tunnel for Joe and the rest of Elan in this story. It’s not a perfect happy ending, but there’s plenty of positive by the end.

YSAK - Very, very, very few of the people complicit in this industry ever had any real consequences for perpetuating a system of child abuse that lead to the destruction of so many lives going back to at least the late 60’s. Most of these monsters simply moved on to other things after their institutions were finally shut down.

Some were even publicly lauded by their communities and powerful leaders for their “contributions” to society.

If there’s one thing I’ve learned having and caring for many cats over the last 30 years, they’ve all got their quirks. Some were over eaters that would throw up almost daily. Some would be grazers and do just fine with their bowls full all day and night. No answer is going to be just right for every cat.

If you have cats that eat at different paces, you might just have to feed them on a schedule in separate locations. That was the only way we could handle it when we had the same situation.
