Adriana Smith, a registered nurse at Atlanta’s Emory University Hospital, was about 9 weeks pregnant when she started having bad headaches in February. The 30-year-old went to Northside Hospital for help but was released after being given medication, according to her mother, April Newkirk.

From the headline I thought it was a situation where she was brain dead and it was 6 months in and the foetus only needed a little while longer to become viable and, so long as she wanted the child, they could maybe have kept it going until they could prepare for all the necessary care a severely premature baby would need. 9 weeks though?! That's absurd. That's just pigheaded stupidity!

Someone should sneak in and pull the plug, or the family should withdraw consent to treatment or something (I don't know the laws).

I want Coke to do a mango flavor. Pepsi do a mango flavor Pepsi Max and it's delicious. The problem is that over the past year or so, Pepsi changed something in the recipe and now whenever I drink it, I get migraines and dizzy spells. Coke doesn't, but they only have the lemon flavor near me and that's not as nice as the mango Pepsi.

If the talk about Cybertrucks actually rusting in the rain is true, they will be worth less and less and less...

Oooh fancy lads! Kebab shops near me have exactly one stick and I couldn't for the life of me tell you what meat it was. The only thing I know it definitely isn't, is pork.

If you know what meat your kebab is made from, it's not a real kebab shop.

I am hostile to those that relish in cruelty to others. To those that engage in cringe culture, or bully others for just wanting to live their lives without harming anyone.

I'll accept people getting heated and passionate, but I will never accept cruelty, or worse: self-righteous cruelty. Believing someone needs to be 'punished' for some slight and so anything is justified against them.

Basically KiwiFarms and the whole lolcow industrial complex can go fuck themselves.

Presumably either Egypt or the West Bank. Well... Until Israel decides they want that too and start bombing the shit out of that.

Who says it's undoable? All you need is the balls to go "Nah actually we're taking this back, get fucked"

Are you sure not including duties and what you actually did is recommended?

Like, "Software Engineer" could mean bloody anything if you don't specify what you actually did. You could have been mindlessly doing minor Jira tickets and running import tools, or you could be architecting entire pieces of enterprise software.

Trees take ages to grow, and their root systems damage buildings and pavements.

So why not just take all of it? The world isn't gonna do shit about it, so why bother with the splitting of Gaza up into unmanageable little chunks?

I'm curious to know why they chose to stop where they did. Is it a matter of "This is what we reckon we can hold"? Or is it "These areas are the most valuable so we want those"? Or "This is how much we reckon we can take before someone declares war"?

Gaza isn't even contiguous anymore. Where there was one territory, there are effectively now four. One big one, one small, one very small, one tiny. I can't imagine the Israelis are going to allow people to move from one territory to the other so why did they split it up like that?

I'm referring more to the behaviour of the Israelis mirroring the behaviour of the colonists. Deliberately pushing out the natives, leading to the natives fighting back, leading to the colonists using overwhelming force in 'self defence', leading to more colonists pushing out the natives.

Take the settlements in the West Bank for example. The settlers show up, build their houses, kick out the local Palestinians and treat them like shit. The Palestinians retaliate, so the settlers call in the IDF to kill the Palestinians. The US colonists did the exact same thing, and even went to war with Britain (at least partially) because Britain demanded that they not push west of the Appalachians because it was (to the British), native territory. Granted Spain had also stolen a load of land to the west, effectively sandwiching the natives between two colonial powers, but Britain had just got out of the Seven Years War (instigated by the colonists) and wasn't keen to get back into one.

The closest thing to flowers I ever received was a cactus. It died.

Sounds familiar. No wonder the Americans love Israel, they're basically carbon copies of eachother. What America did to the Native Americans, the Israelis are doing to the Palestinians. Push 'em out, keep pushing until they get violent, use the violence as an excuse to keep pushing, rinse and repeat until they're all dead.

So if they're using a ChatGPT wrapper to teach me languages, why do I need Duolingo? Copilot is free.

They had those massive tubes of sweets like Notch had in his mansion. They tend to melt into eachother over time, especially if exposed to the sun.

Sweet shop right next to my old college. Never once saw anyone go in, it was never open, yet always fully stocked.

Makes sense when you consider that Yandex is owned by a Russian oligarch, and Google has been fined more money than exists in Russia.

I had to avoid looking at this topic elsewhere because it made me so fucking angry. My best friend in the entire world is trans, and she's coming for Christmas this year. I'm not sure what I'd do if someone harassed her for using the toilet, but I get the feeling my mugshot would be in the paper afterwards.
