I don’t really know who was doubting it, they had already invaded a couple years prior, it’s not wonder they wanted to finish the job

Why is 45/50 the peak age to be eaten by an animal, a 50 year old, though old can still be a strong fighter. A baby or an old man, or pregnant female is a much easier target.

But that’s not really an issue, humans were “meant” to live to their 70s. Data suggests that before we settled down to one place, that’s when we died, the average is brought down by infant morality

Can someone explain this to me? It seems like I’m sending stuff to obscura, so they can then send it to mullvad, which can then send it to the website? Like a two layer TOR?

Bladesmithing

Who do you think is paying for the blockade?

In Egyptian arabic we have

The world is a cucumber one day it’s in your hand, the other it’s in your ass

(Kama todeen todaan) Literal translation: As you give debt, you will owe debt. Alternative is as you judge you will be judged. Basically what goes around comes around

Do you have a feather on your head? When some one asks for special treatment, this is usually a response to that. Feather on his head is a reference to the sultan.

We stayed quiet so he came in with his donkey. Or we let him be, so he came with his donkey The proverb means don’t let people walk all over you

Show me the width of your shoulders Something I heard a lot growing up, basically means go away. To show the width of your shoulders, you show your back, hence the expression

Tardigrades have a max lifespan of ~2 years, on average they live months

They are not in any serious danger, let’s wait a year and see if you are correct

If it helps you feel better, I know hundreds of people who have both legs and are still sheila-less

Damn bros first Lemmy comment is downvoted to the underworld

Fair enough, guess I was wrong about that, still stand by everything else I said.

In Egyptian, I live in the US. I meet Palestinians everyday, there are Palestinians in my family. Palestine for you is an issue that popped up about a 2 years ago, for me it’s been the struggle of generations. I have family members that have died in wars about this matter, thrown in prison and tortured. You don’t understand what it’s like to actually be in danger, so shut the fuck up. You are used to not having backlash whereas I’ve seen doors broken down and hoods thrown over people’s faces over Facebook posts.

If it gets out that you sent some emails, who gives a shit. There is no risk for you, for me there is, therefore it’s imperative that I don’t discuss what I do, or don’t do on the Internet. Emails aren’t really that important, voting is far more important yet when that right is exercised people like you and the other guy bitch about it.

The articles you have linked to are a mix of rubbish and fear mongering.

What is currently transpiring with transgender people in the U.S. is comparable to the Holocaust or any true genocide that has taken place

That is fucking horrendous to say. Those two things are not even in the same sport much less the league.

What’s happening to queers in the US is not genocide. It does not meet the legal definition of genocide (according to the wiki section you posted), going around saying stuff like that minimizes actual genocide

As for what I’m doing on Palestine, I will not respond to this question for the sake of my anonymity. Now you may just say that I’m using this a veil, but it’s pretty easy for me to lie and say I’ve done so and so when I have not.

Where trump support?

You need to go through the entire thread.

This guy is saying we should’ve left the gazans to their fate in exchange for his child’s gender identity.

Also trans people are not being genocided. They are not being chased in the streets and killed, nor are they being rounded up in camps, nor are there bombs getting dropped in their gathering places. What’s happening to gazans is genocide, what happened to the rhoyinga is genocide. When shit gets even close to that level, then it’s genocide.

The premise that parent puts forward is that I should be OK with genocide as long as his kid is ok. That’s unemphatic. By any metric of the situation, one issue is far more important and extreme than the other.

There is no bigotry or hate, just a lack of empathy from the person I’m replying to. It sucks what’s happening to their son, but what’s happening in gaza is 10x worse by any metric.

Yep, I think they should have worker protections like everybody else! They work hard, they suffered just to be here, overall they make the country a better place. There is no reason to send them back (except racism)

I agree with what you said, but I don’t care what non Americans think
