I’ve no idea to be honest.

Yes, and the workers risk nothing, or something like that, I’m told. 😂

Start company.

Run it into the ground.

Go bankrupt.

Buy it back.

I don’t know if anyone has any real information but I’d think Iran would be shooting air bases and such. Targets that hurt Israel’s ability to hurt Iran. Israel’s command probably cares less about a residential building (full of people or empty) than a hangar with F35s.

Horrifying. Is there any obvious solution being discussed in your circles?

“People who go on vacation to one place or another are not our enemies, nor are they the target of our actions,” he said. “Let me be clear: our enemies are those who speculate on housing, who exploit workers and those who are profiting handsomely from the touristification of our cities.”

It’s always about a class struggle, isn’t it.

He maybe on his way to being flushed down the toilet.

Unionize. Seek work in union workplaces. Vote for and lobby politicians to strengthen labour rights by passing laws that make it very easy to unionize and very hard to bust unions. Unions increase the share of wealth labour produces that ends up in the workers’ pockets. Unions decrease the political power of the elite by decreasing the money available for them to spend on politicians while increasing the money labour can spend on politicians. Which further limits how much wealth can accumulate at the top.

If they hadn’t destroyed some portion of Iran’s ballistic missiles, it could have been much worse and really deter future FA. Now I’m not sure if the FO would be enough to do that. When I say enough, I mean destroy enough of Israel’s air force infrastructure so that their bombing capabilities are severely diminished. Not flattening residential buildings.

I am offended by this picture. 😂

Which on the whole I think is a good thing since we’ve seen that significant instability often affects most of us.

a near 50% increase in three months.

This makes sense. I recall thinking after Israel’s previous attack and dismantling Hezbollah that if I were the Ayatollah, I’d now be going full speed towards a nuclear weapon test, as that’s the only thing that can secure my regime’s survival and by extension the stability of the country (in whatever state it exists). After the last attack, that pressure is that much higher.

Bibi told the Iranian people to rise up against their government, and I…agreed with him?

Well, consider how similar regime changes have gone in recent history. Instability, failed states, mass terrorist organization. It’s not impossible to get a better outcome if Iran’s regime is overthrown, but odds aren’t on their side. And then you have the actions of Bibi when this sort of thing happened in Syria - taking territory, bombing them, despite their pleadings for peace. None of this is good for getting a stable democratic governance as societies under threat go authoritarian to be able to act more quickly and efficiently in order to protect themselves. So while on the surface you might agree with Bibi, if you think about what that actually means, Bibi might want something else than that. Another failed state they can bomb if they feel any threat without repercussions because “terrorism” could be a lesser threat than a democratic economic and inevitably military power with much larger population that can wipe Israel if attacked.

Are they going to find a dead whistleblower? 😄

Hm. What about people born in regions with pre-existing heat stress?

The law reform also allows police to fine a person operating any form of transport, including a bicycle, if they are found to be intoxicated and likely to present a danger to others.

Shit 😄

Influential commentator Tucker Carlson urges Trump to ‘drop’ Israel

Carlson has been a leading voice within right-wing circles calling for Trump to avoid being dragged to war with Iran by Israel.

After Israel attacked Iran, the talk-show host, who spoke at the Republican National Convention last year, said the US should not support Netanyahu’s “war-hungry government” in the conflict.

“If Israel wants to wage this war, it has every right to do so. It is a sovereign country, and it can do as it pleases. But not with America’s backing,” the Tucker Carlson Network morning newsletter read.

It added that a war with Iran could “fuel the next generation of terrorism” or lead to the killing of thousands of Americans in the name of a foreign agenda.

“It goes without saying that neither of those possibilities would be beneficial for the United States,” the newsletter said. “But there is another option: drop Israel. Let them fight their own wars.”

Interesting 🤔

Everyone’s rushing in rebranding / customizing these pumps. There’s some pretty good models for what they actually cost on AliExpress. I recently set out to find the exact model SILCA rebadged and I found it, but then I found another that looked better and ordered that. It’s been pretty good so far. Looks very well made.

Well, if people in the government really don’t understand the data collection is warrantless, then there’s a chance they’d change that, given appropriate pushback of course.
