Oh. Well. Hell yeah! That totally flips me around on the issue. 😮💨
I didn't accuse you of celebrating this attack?
My concern is that you don't have the "emotional energy" to worry about how this is going to make everything worse.
Trump is literally doing what you wanted, so it looks like someone reasoned with him.
So this is what you wanted. You wanted Trump to escalate the war.
Is this what y'all wanted?
Do you think this attack will help end the genocide? Or help the flotilla? Or help Palestine Action? It won't, adventurism doesn't work.
Synagogue attacks directly benefit Israel. It makes Jews afraid to live outside of Israel and encourages them to become settlers, it's used by Zionist-aligned governments to crack down on all opposition to Israel, and it creates martyrs when people get killed.
Okay, but we aren't going to fix the social safety net. Nothing ever gets fixed. So, since that's never going to happen, this basically just means cyclists don't have the same property rights as motorists.
We already have fewer rights than anyone else on the road, now we have fewer rights off the road too.
If they decriminalized car theft then at least it would be fair. This is just a way to ensure cyclists stay second class commuters. We aren't even people to them, just annoying obstacles for motorists.
Point, but he's a celebrity first.
Elon Musk might be similar in that he also cultivates his own popularity, but most CEOs are either unknown or generally hated by everyone on all sides. No one knew who Brian Thompson was before he was killed and most people either didn't care or were happy he died, and there were Republicans that were happy he died.
There's a lesson to learn here.
It's relevant because people will take up arms for their celebrity crushes. They become martyrs.
No one cares when CEOs die.
The country went off-track when Reconstruction was defeated by white terrorism and the old slaveocracy retook their wealth and power. We've been struggling with the aftermath since then.
Everything is Russia's fault, got it.
Another reddit.world community got mad at me for saying "death to US" and now I'm banned. That's fine! But why can't I block them now? I am forced to see their posts every time I go to /all and can't comment or vote, so am effectively forced to view content without any ability to interact.
I don't want to see their posts and should be able to block them from my /all feed
Here look! When I'm not banned there's a clear option to block the community:
But after being banned I now can't block the community, I'm forced to keep seeing it in my feed!
SOLVED: From the user settings page there is a tab for Blocks next to the tab for Settings, and you can manually search for the community you wish to block in a search bar. That worked, even if the UI on the community page was messed up by the block message.
I'm experimenting a lot with fried rice at the moment and I think I'm getting pretty good at it?
Unfortunately didn't have any carrot, but still turned out really good!
Beans and rice cooked in diluted pineapple juice, with peppers, corn, and pineapple tidbits. Then your usual taco fixins (lettuce, onion, tomato, hot sauce) on a store-bought tortilla.
It's got onion and tomato and lettuce and cucumbers and jalapenos and bell peppers and smokey tvp and some spicy sauce 🤤
The potatoes are mixed with fried tvp, peas, and carrots. The cauliflower are breaded and airfried, coated with a spicy buffalo barbecue sauce.
Miiiight have cooked a little too much tho 😅
Also here's an action shot
Carmelized onions and garlic, cubed potatoes, bell peppers, and egg substitute; topped with hot-sauce, with a cup of white chai on the side.
Just a simple chili made with four tomatoes, one onion, half a bell pepper, a three chipotles in abado sauce, a clove of garlic, a couple tbsp of chili powder, a tbsp of oil, and then topped with nooch and air fried kidney beans.
I think I'll spring for mango or pineapple next time.
Did you know soy sauce Top Ramen is vegan? Maruchan isn't so don't get em confused!
The greens are raw sweet peas and green onion.
My understanding is that the shutdown doesn't necessarily stop the government from functioning, it just delays paychecks until after the shutdown and then they'll get backpay. ICE can still operate, though some people might quit because they aren't being paid for the next few weeks (or however long the shutdown is).
