To be fair, he’s also breaking Pennsylvanian lottery laws which he could be prosecuted for on a state level.

I agree with this take completely. The parent comment just seemed to encourage senseless retribution without nuance, which is what I tried to voice my opposition to.

Is it? I’m not saying it’s likely, but for the sake of argument let’s say Netanyahu is voted out and a new Israeli government takes power that says, “We are tired of endless violence. We will remove all settlements, checkpoints, etc, and respect a two state solution with Palestinian sovereignty over the agreed upon Palestinian land.” Would that not be the goal, the ideal? Or would you throw that away by trying to get back at Netanyahu and all the horrible people who have committed these crimes. Maybe I’m naïve, but you can’t say that at least the aspiration should be peace. Whether that’s possible without something happening to the perpetrators of violence is another question, but the retribution shouldn’t be the end goal and aspiration, peace should be.

There can be no sustainable peace with constant retribution, I think that’s the core thing going through this conflict this last century. For example, Israel wanted “justice” for the October 7th attacks. Did that lead to a better outcome for humanity and people living in the area? No, only more war and suffering. More war, bloodshed, and retribution is not the answer, we need to break the cycle of violence.

Anon discovers Oedipus.

No, let us hope peace comes to the region and the endless cycle of bloodshed ends. That may include justice for the people responsible, but our main aspiration should be peace and prosperity, not retribution.

Is it okay to bomb economic infrastructure of a sovereign nation because it doesn’t treat its women with respect? Because that’s a little ironic coming from an American.

Ok, there are two apartheid genocidal regimes, but what else have the Romans ever done for us?

It’s actually the exact opposite to what he says. In the US you can do almost anything you want with human remains, while in Europe it’s much more restricted. In Denmark for example, you have to have the body/ashes buried in a licensed cemetery. You can’t keep the ashes yourself, you can’t bury them in your backyard, you can’t spread them at some random special place (except for the sea in rare circumstances).

I’m more interested in wtf is a “Devin Nunes”?? Almost gives me cow vibes, but idk.

Is this actually real? If so the brain worm thing is not even a joke anymore, they must have done some serious neurological damage because that’s messed up.

Good on her for turning out to be what seems like a very reasonable human being, must be hard coming from someone like him, but I presume he had no part in raising her so maybe it makes sense.

Website for pirating books. A godsend for me during university, where I saved 100s of dollars per semester, while getting the books in a digital format which I prefer.

Thanks, I’ll give it a try

How did you get an invite key? I would love to get one to try it out.

If she couldn’t win the primary, how can she win the general? Not like AIPAC will just stop influencing the election.

The SpaceX rocket unfortunately isn’t powerful enough to launch anything into the sun, but yes.

Because there are 9 justices, so there would be a new appointment every 2 years, giving every presidential term two appointments. So it will exactly avoid all that shit this way.

Just pay people to be your shoppers and buy as much as they can for you. And give them a good salary for it. Hiring people is not giving it away, and they are buying the stuff for you. Or hire like a private concert with someone. So many things to spend money on.

Interesting how you could change the label on this map to be literal anything good/bad and it would be accurate in almost all cases. Maybe both parties are not the same after all.
