For what it's worth, I don't really trust these ratings or put much value in them I just didn't see where they said it was leftist. The UN in general seems more centre left than anything else, but I'm sure one could make a reasonable argument for any centre-ish leanings, I'm not actually taking a position here because I don't care about the UN, beyond the fact that it sure isn't leftist.
This literally happened in reverse in Australia. Our current prime minister had previously attended rallies in support of Palestine and is on the record as having said "The Palestinians must be given their homeland"
now that he's in government he's throwing around anti-Semitism claims at protestors and refuses to take action, even kicking a member of his party out for saying we need to recognise the state of Palestine
Of course, before any of this they first sprayed one of the speakers for the asylum seeker rally...
Pretty damn typical of cops to not arrest the nazis or do anything useful for the community, they need to get to other rallies so they can pepper spray children and trample trans youth with their horses.
That's a pretty reasonable misunderstanding, I don't speak for anyone but myself but generally as long as there's no malice involved I'm not upset by an accidental misgendering.
I'm on jerboa too and didn't even know there were specific pronouns on accounts, I just chucked mine in my bio.
Devices less sophisticated than smart phones were once pretty common in sci-fi novels, but they still achieved the same sort of thing, all the world's knowledge in the palm of your hand.
You can get smartphones for absurdly cheap these days, and while crappy by modern standards they're still technological marvels.
Hell yeah, I can get behind this. I can't comment on the O-Cedar as I can't get them here and information online is sparse, but the equivalent I get in Australia is made from cellulose and is biodegradable, apparently sadly not including the scourer (after some digging it's coated in polyurethane).
Protip: Don't get the scrub daddy, the O-Cedar Scrunge is the highest rated sponge by virtually every chef and test kitchen for a reason, it's non-scratching but has one of the best scourers ever and will clean stuff up like magic compared to some inferior brands.
If you're an Australian like me, you can get the Vileda Pur Active which is seemingly identical (I wouldn't be surprised if it's the same company).
I feel like the difference is what you're preparing for, when I think of a prepper I'm thinking of people who are planning for an enormous society ending disaster.
I've also got a bug out bag, but it's just for general emergencies if I need to leave my place in a hurry very unexpectedly.
I don't think his personal accomplishments really matter in the face of his support for the far right, crushing hatred of trans people, calling people pedophiles and the absurd amount of misinformation and bigotry that he promotes on xitter.
If SpaceX needs an absolute piece of shit like him in order to succeed, then there shouldn't be a SpaceX.
Didn't seem to doesn't necessarily mean it didn't happen, it can be difficult to quantify. Most people don't notice a lot of the constant large scale ecological devastation that does happen.
The real concern is that even if it was fine in one location, that can't reliably be assumed to be the case for other ecosystems. This issue is really complicated, we've acted hastily in the past and done some insane lasting damage so I'd say it's best to be careful.
All that said, even if I'm vegan and this whole thing makes me extremely uncomfortable, working to eradicate malaria is objectively good.

Is this the new version of the "I hate my wife" joke?
