When my best friend first moved in with me I had to teach her how to cook lol. When I was a teen my mom forced my brothers and me to cook dinner a few times a week which I’m really thankful for

Even when I was still drinking the Jesus juice a decade ago I could see this in my church. It’s the main reason I left. Sermons would preach one thing, which the congregation would agree with, but then immediately after I would hear people gossiping about how Marsha has a gay son so she’s going to hell, or Tom’s daughter got pregnant out of wedlock so they were shunning them. I grew up with several of these peoples kids and knew for a fact they were nowhere close to saints. Rampant. Hypocrisy. It’s wild that they’re so willfully ignorant. It’s all just projection of their own guilt.

Why is not being alone in the universe a bad thing though?

There are possible concerns relating to the Fermi paradox. Perhaps there aren’t many space faring civilizations because the most advance civilization exterminates others that they see as a potential threat.

But yeah, I also find it comforting to know our existence really isn’t that big a deal lol. It just makes me feel like we should do what we can to get the most joy out of our lives while we’re here

Yeah at first I thought about how I had a toy army knife growing up, then realized that’s a very American toy to have lmao. I do think though that making this a big deal is just adding to its popularity. Kids only think it’s cooler since their parents are freaking out.

Spot on lmao

According to 8NewsNow, about a dozen women have since filed a lawsuit against the firm, claiming they did not do enough to protect their private and personal information. None of the documents posted online were encrypted

I love how that is your takeaway lmao. Not that Israel is killing children - both directly and indirectly.

We’re saying the same thing I think lol. ≠ means not equal to.

That’s up to them to figure out how to do it with the least amount of civilian casualty then. Moot point anyway considering nothing has come out with overwhelming proof of Hamas using the hospital as cover.

The point I’m making is both of those situations happened (good banks got bombed immediately after the convoy left and they have been using white phosphorus on people) and people are just looking the other way.

What about bombing humanitarian aide locations or using white phosphorus as a weapon?

From a tactical perspective it’s a goddamn war crime. When should they stop, then? When no native Palestinian remains, so they can swoop in and take all of Gaza like they’ve been trying to do for the last 70 years? Hamas is a response to decades of ethnic cleansing and Israel is using it as an excuse to further their conquest

Edit: this isn’t necessarily directed at OP. It’s more of an open ended question for those in support of the bombings

Being critical of the Israeli govt ≠ antisemitism. This is a propaganda push by pro Israel people, please do not be fooled.

So bombing hospitals is the right answer? Really Israel needs to just fucking ceasefire.

Honestly the GOP is so disjointed right now that a third party actually has a chance if enough D’s that are fed up with Biden organize

Very mature response.

Honestly this seems like a win-win. The rich have to pay their dues and we’re not funding an openly terrorist govt!

You’re pretty ignorant to be spouting this shit at this point. Israel has been trying to fuck over Palestine for almost a goddamn century now. Hamas is a response to decades of oppression from the Israeli govt. Does that excuse Hamas? Fuck no it doesn’t, but Israel is still much more in the wrong than Palestine ever was or could be at this point.

You’ve got it backwards. Israel has never been the victim in this conflict. There’s almost a century now of Israel oppressing Palestine to take their land. Hamas is just responding to Israel. If Israel backed the fuck off this would all go away. Or at least it would have; not so sure if anyone in Palestine will let Israel be after what they’ve been doing in October…

Yup. Biggest difference between the two parties is R’s will staunchly defend their shitheads while D’s want to purge them

I think they’re important to make it obvious the kind of people we have in power - for both parties
