I didn’t see it reported elsewhere, but Middle East Eye has a good reputation for factual reporting.

Queen Máxima (rightfully) mocked Trump’s butthole mouth.

This sounds a lot like, “build your own servers and topple another US industry.”

According to the experts in the article, it’s determining the intent through observation of action that causes identification to be a spectrum, rather than pass/fail.

The sails were up. It was running on engines that some reports say began to fail. There are countless videos from multiple angles. Some are a hard watch.

There were many sailors atop the masts. The two tallest masts hit the bottom of the bridge and folded in half. The sailors were hanging from the sails and rigging as the ship approached the port.

The article explains that genocide vs. genocidal violence is difficult to determine by even the most educated scholars in the field. In this case, all seven renowned researchers agree, including one from Israel, that Israel is committing genocide.

>Genocide studies as a discipline does not treat the issue as a binary, the NRC report said. Rather than asking whether genocide has happened or not, scholars see it as a gradual process.

>Ungor compares it to a “dimmer switch” rather than an on-off light.

>“Contrary to public opinion, leading genocide researchers are surprisingly unanimous: the Netanyahu government, they say, is in that process - according to the majority, even in its final stages,” the investigation concluded. “That is why most researchers no longer speak only of 'genocidal violence', but of 'genocide'.”

They’re implying that peaceful resistance isn’t enough. The alternative is a violent crime on your record, which severely limits your employment options in the US.

How many times have you attacked a US congressman? Are you a waiter, day laborer, or a janitor now that you have that violent crime charge on your record?

For sure. She went ragdoll minute they started to lift her. This was not her first rodeo.

It’s not my post, but I think it’s important to see people in swing districts pushing Republicans to the point of getting ejected. It’s good for morale, especially with all of the political pessimism.

It’s too early for a challenger. Midterms aren’t for another 18 months. NY D-17 is a coveted swing district in the Hudson Valley, about an hour north of NYC. Mondaire Jones lost to Mike Lawler last November.

I’m aware, but they’re also unfortunately rare in the US, and we need batteries if we don’t maintain a good trade relationship with China.

Nah, Trump got what he wanted, the minerals deal. Now he can keep sanctions on China for longer while we strip mine Ukraine for rare earth minerals.

I think it’s true. It’s a really fucked up story. She moved to Australia and advocated for women that had been through sex trafficking. Got married, had kids, then got divorced. She was emotionally unstable, so her husband put a restraining order on her.

Then she got into an accident with a school bus. They said she just had minor injuries and was sent home. A few days later she went to the hospital with a backache, turns out she was in renal failure and had only days to live. Tried to see her kids one last time, but her husband said no, so she took her own life so she didn’t have to suffer any more.

Poor, poor woman.
