I remember once many years ago sitting at a large organisational related fancy lunch or perhaps dinner in a yacht club ish sort of dinner place eating my surf & turf and thinking "I can't make conversation with any of these people". It's hard to even nod along the hierarchy as they talk about their large unspecified event sailing ship experiences last year and how they plan to do this year and oh wouldn't you know the troubles etc.

Much happier eating in a dive bar where my boots stick to the floor and the toilet walls have untouched graffiti from inception.

Anyway thanks for coming to my TED talk.

all famous people with the same last name are related, and a lot of those without the same last name too

I don't mean anything in particular by this but I can't help but notice a lot of the official or official related social media X posts on the IDF side (at least the ones posted to this thread) seem have roughly the same number of upvotes or likes and roughly 5k seems the norm. I don't know enough about social media to comment on the amounts or ratios but what happened to all the bot farms for managing media impressions? Did they go with the change of ownership?

quote:

Iowa will not participate this summer in a federal program that gives $40 per month to each child in a low-income family to help with food costs while school is out, state officials have announced.

“An EBT card does nothing to promote nutrition at a time when childhood obesity has become an epidemic,” Iowa Republican Gov. Kim Reynolds said

The dialectical struggle of history has always, essentially, been a question of how to apply justice to matter. Take away matter and what remains is justice.
To be fair to the potato-people $40 will be just barely enough to get a single bag of chips by next summer

It's obviously lovely of Iowa, but seriously, $40 a month? Like, a dollar a day? What an insultingly pathetic amount.

Not even enough for rice and pasta.

You might hit calorie requirements with raw flour.

I hate that this is their line of thinking. Challenges build character.

Trauma fucks you up.

They deliberately ignore the very important difference.

Also if you gently caress up your slaves enough when they're kids, they are way easier to control and abuse as adult slaves. It's a win win.
