I think you mean popular, not populist, but yes.

They've been occupying it of course, but they haven't started carpet bombing it yet like they're doing to Gaza.

You can't even bring yourself to admit that the announcement of extending the kind of carpet bombing we've seen in Gaza to the West Bank is a bad thing.

You had a big argument with someone not because of what they said but because of what you believed that also believed?! Now you think they believe something different it's all OK? Weird.

You know the West Bank isn't Gaza, right? And that it's much, much larger, no? You're seriously now arguing that more and faster genocide is better? You sick duck.

You’re seriously now arguing that more and faster genocide is better?

am i wrong?

Yes.

I'm not sure you're replying to the post I wrote, or I just don't understand who you're talking about.

There's genociding the West Bank as well as Gaza, as currently suggested now that Trump has won. You might not see a difference between 40% and 100%, but your joint winners Netanyahu and Trump do. You sure showed Harris there.

The West Bank. That's where they're going to start. As announced. Because of Trump winning.

Yes, sorry, you're right, every piece of bad news about Trump is actually about Harris. My mistake.

I take that as a compelling recommendation for Signal.

Yup. Programmes that have experimented with giving homeless people hundreds in no-rules cash find that within a couple of months most of them have secured accommodation and reconnected with family and friends. After a while the majority are in paid employment.

Who would have guessed that the most of the problems of extreme poverty could be solved with money?!

It's so dystopian that teachers lose their jobs for encouraging children to read and that "free speech" advocates in state government are literally censoring books, the very thing that the first amendment is designed to stop governments doing.

In what sense has he agreed something if no one else involved knows about it? I think the right verb here is 'suggests'.

Republicans think misgendering people is all fun and games until it happens to them.

Republicans think denying women healthcare if they miscarry it's a good plan until it happens to their loved ones.

Republicans think that having an abortion is a decision full of hate and evil until their daughter wants one.

Republicans think that having active shooters in schools is a mildly unfortunate consequence of important gun freedoms until it happens in their children's schools.

But also republicans are surprised and hurt that their good republican friends aren't supportive when they are the victim of republican behaviour and politics.

"It's not a problem unless it's happened to me" is why people are right wing. It's being self absorbed turned into a political movement for the advancement of shareholder profits.

Vote Kamala Harris and your sisters, wives and daughters might stop dying for lack of health care when pregnant. Allow Trump to regain power and it will get much, much worse for the women you care about.

"I never thought it would be MY kids traumatised in a mass shooting in school." - Conservatives.

Yes. But in more controversial news, you can solve hunger with.... money!

It's like giving people money empowers them to choose to fix their problems, most important ones first.

The surprising bit is that drug use rates drop substantially if people can cope with everyday life.

"and I have to say, this idea of caring for our neighbor and kindness and a hand up when somebody needs it, or just the sense that people go through things, and to be able to be there when they need it, that's who we are," said Walz.

Warms my heart, America, that you might just elect a president and vice president who I'd gladly spend time with. Walz actually a decent guy. Well picked, Kamala.

Rhowch, cwtch, mwyn have to be Welsh. Classicly Welsh sounding words, and mbrsrtowcs, strxfrm can't possibly be Welsh. Source: my welsh uncle taught me to pronounce Welsh place names.

Wcstold, wcsoll wmffre could be either but sound really weird as Welsh to me.

1. He HATES that he lost to Biden and so desperately wanted to beat him second time round and now he'll always have lost to Biden and never won, so he's really struggling to accept that reality and desperately wants to go back to beating Biden in the polls.
2. This is absolutely how he would behave if he were in Biden's position right now so he thinks this is plausible and people might believe it.
3. He wouldn't recognise altruism if it turned up in his house with free burgers every lunchtime singing "Altruism is doing something nice for someone else with nothing in return, nothing in return, nothing in return. Altruism is doing something nice for someone else with nothing in return, nothing in return, nothing in return." He would like it, and he would tweet about how the hamberder people were good people, great people who know how great trump is, but he wouldn't understand and wouldn't learn anything because it's so alien to his way of thinking. Of course he finds it incomprehensible that Biden might not be seething with rage right now.

He won't. Too honourable.

"We're never going to let that happen again" means they fully intend to prevent, by any means necessary, the peaceful transfer of power to another power following an election.

I remember when Trump separated Mexican children from their parents and kept them in actual cages while moving their parents several states away without keeping any records of which children go with which parents. Lovely guy.

Trump is too old to keep up with Kamala's schedule. And he hates the photos of the same venue really full for Kamala and half full for him, so he's avoiding the comparison like he's avoiding the debate. He hates being seen to lose. He's the world's sorest loser.

I'm no artist, but this was fun to make. You folks here at 196 make me happy and entertain me and make me laugh. Thank you. You folks are great. Seriously.

Even if you're just a lurker, or you just upvote things and never got the courage to follow the rule, you count as great, because you know what? You're a human being and that's enough to be worth more than all of the lifeless things that surround us.

I just need you to know that I know you're not perfect, but none of us are. None of us. Even those of us who are pretending we are. But you're unique and you're valuable and I don't care how little you think of yourself, you're a living, breathing person, and so you're a wonder. An absolute wonder.

Sometimes things are hard - hang in there. You matter. More than you can possibly realise. Keep going.

Sometimes things are good or there's a ray of sunshine between the clouds - love it, live it, remember it.

Be kind to each other. Y'all matter. You really do.

Nastiness. The clear connection, at its heart, it's nastiness. Lack of compassion. Zero empathy.

Sucking cock is a fantastic thing to do for your fellow human, and a true friend loves and appreciates you for it.

But sucking the cocks of dictators, that's something sensible people everywhere disapprove of. Pretty much every dictator has awful anti-LGBT+ rhetoric and inhumane anti-LGBT+ policies.

"I want micro USB back" already breaks all three original rules at once.

1. Being ordinary shouldn't protect you from legal consequences of starting nationwide riots.
2. Blaming Starmer for far right riots is super weird.
3. The rioters are the ones who want to turn it into a police state. This is just justice.
4. You have this strange notion that it can't be criminal to say a thing, but how many war criminals did the deeds themselves? How many evil leaders were more hands-on than their followers? The worst criminals use words and let their followers go to jail for carrying out their wishes.
5. Hooray! The more people that know YOU CAN GO TO JAIL in the UK for inciting a riot on Xitter, Faceschmuk or Telegrunt, the better. Actually hooray. Actual firestarters going to jail rather than just saying they were "asking important questions". Farage next please.

You'd think this would give republicans pause, or make them reconsider.

Young women dying in dramatically increasing numbers.

But it won't.

All these young women left to die on the altar of their misinterpretation of their religion and their uncaring principles.

But no, it was a policy born in hate and the tragic imposed deaths of women are not an unfortunate side effect, they're just misogyny in action. Working itself out.

If they cared about babies, there would be more support for women, for early years interventions, and maybe they might also care about children dying in schools on the altar of their misunderstanding of their 2nd amendment and their uncaring principles.

But no, they don't care about children dying in schools either, and do you know why? Because caring about children dying in schools doesn't involve telling women what they have to do and ruling their lives with oppressive freedom-denying laws.

Caring about children dying in schools would involve some infringement on their UNDENYABLE RIGHT TO FEEL IMPORTANT with a gun and caring about women dying in childbirth would interfere with their UNDENYABLE RIGHT TO FEEL IMPORTANT with a rule about what women can and can't do.

Despite the fixes, theft claims for the affected Hyundai and Kia models continue to exceed industry norms, including for vehicles equipped with the upgraded software, according to HLDI. One reason could be that the software-based immobilizer only activates if the driver remembers to lock the vehicle with a fob, while many people are in the habit of using the switch on the door handle.

If ever there were a problem that is ripe for fixing with the first version of the software upgrade, not a future one, this was it.

It was a gentle slap, but it was a slap. Most of us get through the day without slapping kids who we think are cheeky. Mr Erdogan clearly thinks he's way too important to keep his hands off other people's kids. He could have just told the kid what he was supposed to do, but he just lashed out. Guy needs to take his self importance down a peg or two. It was undignified and shows he doesn't have any self moderation. Surrounded by people who always say yes to him no matter what he says, I reckon. He loses respect if he can't deal with other people in a calm and sane manner. Which other world leaders slap children? None of them. This brings shame on Turkiye because their president can't moderate his behaviour. The little kid showed more emotional maturity and self control in public than Mr Erdogan.

That was a great and well written article. Amusing and informative. You should read it if you haven't.

And no, I would absolutely not want Trump at the dinner table, it would be exhausting, and I wouldn't want Vance at the dinner table, he's just too unhinged. If Kamala Harris came to dinner I think we'd all have a good time. I think she'd be good company.

I don't understand why this is a shitpost? I mean, other than it's shit, and here it is being posted. Shouldn't a shitpost have some sort of intelligence or self-awareness or humor or something? I don't get it.

Please don't call people dumb for having less than $1m.

Nice dick, bro.

Your gut is full of friendly bacteria that help you digest your food and keep everything running smoothly and efficiency. This vast community of bacteria is called a gut microbiome. People with gut problems like inflammatory bowel disease and irritable bowel syndrome tend to have a much less diverse gut micribiome. Taking a broad spectrum antibiotic can devastate your gut microbiome, letting the bad bacteria thrive while the good ones are offstage, sometimes leading to some of the same symptoms that people with IBD and IBS might encounter, and it can take months to recover.

Killing 50% of all living things might include 50% of gut microbia, resulting in the potential for bloating, gassiness, stomach cramps, and potentially diarrhoea.

What does the nobody: mean? I've always wondered.

Don't call it that.
