Exactly. Almost everytime the chaos is when police beat and arrest peaceful protest. A lot of protest never even got off the ground, so to speak. I saw thousands gather in a park and as soon as they took their first steps to march waves of police moved in and just destroyed them.

Who should Gimli replace in A new hope? I say Leia. The line "short for a storm trooper " would be extra funny. He could be tossed over the gap when fleeing the death star. I like imagining him reacting to his home planet being blown up. And later in the series it would be quite the reveal when he turns out to be Luke’s sister.

“I cannot allow you to enter the council so armed Harambe”

Harambee, pretending to peel a yellow painted gun: “You wouldn’t separate a gorilla from his bananas would you?”

Problem is there is still months and months of spinning the story. With all he has done it probably won’t be hard to win them back.

Ah too bad. 14/14 is Super Heaven

give it to me RAWWWW and WIGGLING

The white pieces are kept in perpetual check slavery by the black rooks, who are forcing them to create endless white knights. What in the anarchy!?

Sometimes anarchy is boring!

doesn’t seem like any clear cut victory for me using stockfish

Early in the article: “Poll numbers have dropped due to his handling of Israel and Hamas”

Hmm, how could he handle this one? Stop sending weapons and $$$ to Israel?

Later in the article: “Some advisers have told him he should walk faster out of concern that his gait feeds impressions that he’s too old”

Electric Light Orchestra?

those intercontinental ballistic missiles are a bitch.

I’m thinking of switching to Tidal. I’ve had YouTube music for awhile and I like it, but I just learned they fired a huge chunk of their staff after they unionized and that pissed me off. Anybody know how their rock and jazz selection is, especially with smaller lesser known artists?

why? it’s pretty irrelevant to what I’m talking about. Not Trump if that’s what you are wondering

No I don’t think Trump will do better. His party has openly stated they want Palesti e wiped from the earth.

the world needs more from you than just voting and stanning for the lesser evil

yes it has been every presidents policy, and it’s always been unacceptable. the current crisis is particularly Bad because it has been sped up by a factor of about 100. 10000 children dead in 4 months. Biden is a monster.

Is Biden perfect? No, he just continues to over and over again over months and months to commit genocide! He also does good things! He’s getting the trains to run on time!

Yes and it also, obviously, wouldnt satisfy those who want Israel to control the whole area. And there would still be conflict that would have to be resolved from decades of violence on both sides. But it is an easy first step that the international community could enforce and it would start dialing down tensions. But because of my country (US), the world is never allowed to take that step.

To all the people saying there isn’t an easy solution: you are wrong, the solution is actually very easy, easier than most international problems. It’s the solution the entire political world has been willing to get behind for 50 years or so. If I remember correctly it’s that Israel return to its 1967 borders and get rid of its nuclear weapons. Every couple years the UN votes on this, the results are always like 230 to 2. The whole world agrees, except for Israel and the US, and the US vetoes it every time.

Imagine getting 99% of the world to agree to something, and thinking the problem is too complicated to solve.
