My french friend told me that the dairy farmers once protested by dumping a massive amount of milk on the streets of Paris one time. Apparently the smell was… Well you can imagine.

The French know how to protest.

We’re at the point that I’m not sure if this is an onion.

*nibble nibble*

Edit several hours later: oh shit this is not an onion. FML.

This is the absolute pits. I know a Palestinian lad who was stateless until he got an Irish passport a few years back. I was so, so happy for him when he did.

Dumping a stateless person out into the unknown is one of the cruelest things you could do. But no…We can go lower…

An officer eventually told her that she would be sent to the Israel border

JFC :/

Sakeik’s family is from Gaza, but she was born in Saudi Arabia, which does not grant birthright citizenship to the children of foreigners

This is a similar story to my friend. Stateless Gazan parents but he was born in UAE and has never set foot on Palestinian soil. Horror story for that poor woman.

Yeah that’s the lad. The history of Rome is incredible. I only fell into Revolutions because I needed something to fill the gap after history of Rome and his style is very easy listening.

I’m being a bit more picky with the sections I listen to in revolutions but really enjoying it so far.

It’s on Spotify etc if you have that.

Well I learned a lot so thanks. Particularly surprised at the levels that anarchism reached there. I’m listening to the 'revolutions" podcast at the moment (highly recommended) and just coming into the Russian revolutions so I can see the seeds of it.

Have you read the book you linked? Any good?

Cheers. I’ll give them a read this evening.

And yeah great bunch of lads the Spanish. Absolutely sound in general.

If Zionists had any real leverage they could use to control states Spain and Ireland (and to a lesser extent France under Macron) wouldn’t be outspoken advocates for Palestinian rights

I’m not sure what has given Spain their perspective but at least in Ireland there is no amount of propaganda you could throw at us to change public perception here, largely on a moral ground, but we also have that sweet, sweet history of oppression. We were all horrified on October 6th but there’s no justification for the current genocide.

Really fucking tired of antisemitism bring bandied about as the reason for our support too. Children are being shot in the street, losing limbs and being starved as a weapon of war FFS. Antisemitism is a real and nasty thing and the word is being cheapened by the hour.

Very happy to have a larger country along for the ride with us. History is on our side. 🇪🇸🤝🇮🇪

Yeah this is purely a hardcore isolationist ranting.

Evolution in action. Still sad.

Black males the highest yes percentage. I wonder what causes that? Not sure why but my gut would have put them at a lower desire for war with Iran than white males.

Is Judaism popular in black communities?

It’s also done on no kings day so we all know what the headline will be. Doesn’t seem like a coincidence on reflection.

Is he a cop then? The cop car part is confusing otherwise. Uniform etc. not so much.

Edit: I see elsewhere that the car was disguised too

If signalgate didn’t bring down Hegseth, there is no chance of ice Barbie going from this.

Oh you’re in for a treat. Quality movie.

I mean…If you either need or should have it then… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯…sure? (genuinely hope you’re OK though. If not and you need to talk then hit me up.)

The touching grass part is up to you though. It’s just outside.

Story time - When I was a kid you had to get condoms through a family planning clinic or by crossing a border and many chose the latter. It was gone by the time I became old enough for it to be an issue for me.

Thankfully I live in the same country where there would immediately be government ending riots if there was any attempt to ban any form of birth control. Hell, the cops wouldn’t even stop the riots, they’d probably join in.

I hadn’t considered that though in fairness. It’s just such a crazy notion.

Willful childlessness is such a hilarious concept. I’m rollin’ around here.

What are they gonna do? Check if you’re having unprotected sex sufficiently? Check how many miscarriages you’ve had? HAHAHAHAh. Fuckin’ donkeys.

edit: Small gubment.

a week after the latter unveiled a brand new statue of another Soviet figurehead, Josef Stalin, in Moscow.

Yikes. They’re still celebrating Stalin with new statues. Bizarre.

That was far, far too eloquently written to not have been a staffer.

Yeah there is entirely too little detail in this article.

Smith sold her daughter to a traditional healer, who was interested in her eyes and fair complexion.

This could be interpreted in an entirely horrific way. It’s the middle of the night here. I was hoping to get back to sleep like :(
