As someone that loves going into an office, I wish they let people who didn’t stay at home.
I miss the aspect of the pandemic where people were freer to stay home if they chose, and the roads were so much emptier. It’s better for people to work how they’d like to, it’s better for me trying not to spend an hour commuting, and it’s better for the Earth to have fewer people burning carbon twice a day.

“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”
Sadly, it seems like people are remembering the past and eagerly trying to resuscitate it. I’m worried about the next decade in Europe
Netanyahu specifically had a very clear policy of keeping Hamas in power and also of trying to contain Hamas, because Hamas is a very good excuse for Israel to continue on its path of settlement, expansion, occupation, and rejection of a Palestinian state.
As long as Hamas is there, Israel doesn’t have to get into any kind of peace process, any kind of serious political negotiation. It doesn’t have to take the Palestinian demands for a state, for liberation, for rights as seriously. Even if we assume that Netanyahu is committed to getting rid of Hamas, he has an interest in staying in power now, and the best way to stay in power is to keep the war going on and on.
BB and his whole batch of right wing cabinet members has got to go.
Oh boy, more ‘20s vibes from Europe
People clamoring for a second civil war before the first reconstruction is even complete
It’s also a war crime, for those counting at home:
Intentionally directing attacks against personnel, installations, material, units or vehicles involved in a humanitarian assistance
UN, these are clearly materials involved in humanitarian assistance.
“My right, my wife’s, my children’s, to roam the roads of Judea and Samaria are more important than the right of movement of the Arabs," said Mr Ben Gvir, using a biblical term for the West Bank.
He then addressed Mohammad Magadli, an Arab Israeli journalist in the studio, saying: “Sorry Mohammad, but this is the reality, that’s the truth. My right for life comes before their right to movement.”
BBC. He has a number of repugnant views. There won’t be peace until BB’s cabinet is out of power.

While the Demographia report found Gaza City isn’t as packed as the world’s most dense cities, including Dhaka, Bangladesh, which has over 80,000 people per square mile, it’s more crowded than global cities, such as London, and three times more dense than Los Angeles, the most population-dense area in the US, according to the report.
They’re telling 1.1 Million people to move in 24hours in an area more dense than LA or London. In an area without power, fuel, or food.
What the world didn’t need right now was another war. I hope this ends as swiftly and peacefully as possible.
Pakistan’s Interior Ministry announced that migrants residing illegally in the country had 28 days to leave voluntarily, and it offered a “reward” for information leading to their arrests once that deadline passed.
These “report your neighbor” laws are only going to turn your society into a mistrustful and lifeless shell of itself. They had to build a wall to keep the East Germans in.
Vanguard assesses retirement readiness assuming your post-employment income should match around 68% of your annual salary.
Millennials in the 70th percentile of earners are the only demographic on track to come anywhere close to that coveted ratio. Early millennials are expected to hit 66% of their annual salary at retirement, while Gen X lags at 53% and late baby boomers at 51%.
Yay, wealthier Millennials? Way to grind that 401K
Instead, Kaufman said, the tourist was suffering from a mental disorder that psychiatrists have labeled the Jerusalem syndrome. The condition — a form of disorientation believed to be induced by the religious magnetism of the city, which is sacred to Christians, Jews and Muslims — is said to cause foreign pilgrims to believe they are figures from the Bible.
Well that’s a new one
With global temperatures rising and increases in human migration, common diseases only in Africa and equatorial climates (Dengue, Malaria, Cholera, Yellow Fever…etc) are likely to migrate up to the global north as well.
You’re the president, the buck stops with you. It’s so incredibly lazy to assume NGOs will pick up the slack from your poor leadership.
