No. My belief is that a ceasefire is a better condition than no ceasefire.

It is by no means an end to the conflict nor is there a solution. However it is, in fact, a ceasefire that has lasted longer than any other since October 7th.

I am indeed making the delusionally brave stance of spinning a seemingly lasting ceasefire as a positive.

The fall of the American federal government to fascism is not as foregone a conclusion as it is being made out to be.

The same factions that didn't want to change the incumbent policy are the same that are accepting the fascist movement without resistance.

The ceasefire has been in effect since January 19. Gazans have been returning to their rubble. There have been prisoner swaps and hostage releases.

So, for context, this is an improvement. Selling arms that aren't actively being used is a whole lot better than when they are.

Again: not directly funding an ongoing genocide was not a major hurdle nor the big ask it was made out to be.

A ongoing and lasting ceasefire is an extreme gamechanger on Israel policy.

the US will turn into an autocratic state and Palestine will be erased.

Ah the iron convictions of those who participate in a democratic society.

Is this done by teenagers?

Quite possibly. There'd be no real way of knowing. But it does sound like young people trying to find an outlet and seeking change--as ineffectual as it may seem to jaded old timers.

I used to regulate a local sanitary code that explicitly defined "'should' means 'shall'; 'shall' means 'must'" because lawyers do litigate over these terms.

Saved a lot of time and resources (and public health) where a juxtaposed word in an administrative order didn't blow up a civil case.

In most cases 'shall' and 'should' is synonymous with 'must' for legal purposes.

Nope. Six panels and the babies live.

I moved to emulation way before furniture became a thing since I moved so much.

That said: Mickey's Magical Quest was actually a good game. I remember some of those levels quite fondly.

Lightning Bolt would've been nice.

This whole topic has been the crusade of like two or three people.

The result is mostly just a fourth person being able to post shit like breibart without harassment.

Lemmy is still rather small.

If everything is going to shit, getting a slightly less shit deal even if it means everyone else gets a whole lot more shit is a deal people will take just about 10/10 times across an electorate.

I find it interesting four of the top 10 sellers are Free To Play.

Trump knows his audience and the media too well.

He claimed his actions would help wildfires. That's a win to his audience.

Experts said no and the Army Corps responded to pushback. That fuels his audience's prejudices into believing Trump's initial claim even more.

This is British people you're talking about.

just be the full, lead-huffing boomer racist fantasy caricature.

They love their racist caricatures though. You know: to point to and reinforce prejudices. Hell, that strategy is more likely to land a position with the GOP than detained.

They've got that one job down.

My sister in law is a few months out from leaving that state.

Crippling poverty and isolation without education or services. She'd done aid work in africa and in afghanistan for years during the war. She says Tennessee is more hopeless.
