  1. Sounds we leaked Israeli plans. Not cool. Translation The ministers of the political-security cabinet officially approved during the meeting the next phase of the operation in Lebanon. One of the ministers asked Defense Minister Galant why a report referred to the start of the maneuver even before the discussion and official approval. Galant explained that "they had to refer to publications in foreign media".
  2. Sorry for your loss.
  3. Thanks for helping prove my point. Is the climate change responsible for the extra foot the river rose 108 years later?
  4. 🙄 Wow, you make a really great point except literally this exact same thing happened in 1916. https://wgme.com/news/nation-world/national-weather-service-helene-event-being-compared-to-historic-flood-of-1916-asheville-hurricane-catastrophic-heavy-rain-evacuate Back to back hurricanes. 26 inches of rain. Massive flooding. 50 died. I know, right? If they didn’t learn the lesson of climate change the first time in 1916, what makes anyone think it will sink in this time?
  5. Looks like good amount of people will be without water for a while
  6. Supposedly only helicopters can get in or out of lots of places. Private citizens doing rescue operations and bringing in supplies. Hopefully some government assets coming in very soon to help.
  7. First of all Biden gets more blame because he was actually President when inflation took hold Also, government spending is a both sides issue, but there are some differences between the monetary stimulus passed during each administration. The Covid Cares Act was $2.2T in stimulus passed in March 2020 with nearly unanimous support in both houses of Congress. Essentially emergency legislation. The American Rescue Plan Act was $1.9T in stimulus passed in March 2021 along a strict party line vote. Discretionary stimulus. Make of that what you will.

  8. I think I’m an episode behind but Aggy played herself getting the two white ladies evicted. Neither Kam or Chelsie are taking you to the end for obvious reasons.
  9. agreed
  10. I work at a huge refinery for a major company. We are union representation. They only fight for 3 to 5% raise. No, I meant can make a good living with no college degree. Like the people in Deer Park, Pasadena.
  11. So it’s kind of like refinery work.
  12. The tweet thread I linked goes through possible consequences. Basically, if it goes more than a few days we’ll have a big problem. Prices will go up, but without Covid stimmy demand backing it up. I know hardly anything about the law around this, but seems like a special situation/national security issue a la air traffic controllers. I’m surprised it’s being allowed to go this far.
  13. Coming October 1st if nothing big changes. https://www.cbsnews.com/news/port-officials-ready-for-first-strike-by-dockworkers-in-decades/ Twitter thread on potential outcomes here.
  14. This is silly. Would Iran then take its "finger off the scale"? Or stop arming and funding differentially one side? Wasted your breath typing that. This is the crux of the issue and has been why Hezbollah was always going to be targeted next. Israel can't have tens of thousands of people displaced from the north long term.
  15. China trying a little brrrrt.
  16. Removal of the settlers doesn't strike me as moderate.
  17. A lot of these rappers go both ways. Young Tupac was zesty
