@eigenrobot @XplodingCabbage When you degrade daily life w/o making people afraid the public put tremendous pressure on the gov to end the war/op and they often give in to outsized demands to accomplish this. This only works if people AREN’T afraid tho.

@eigenrobot @XplodingCabbage Pretty much every conflict we’ve had since 67’ only makes sense when viewed thru the lens of Arabs trying to maximize annoyance and lowering Israeli QoL. The reason they do it is cause it often works. 1/2

why is iran still lobbing missiles at israel. morale i guess? feels basically pointless yet costly, as it exposes launchers and wastes missiles while accomplishing nothing tactically nor strategically

@9chabard I’ll tell you anything you wanna know. I don’t think unbiased written sources exist but as an aggressively anti political Israeli I come fairly close.

what are the best things to read about the history of israel/palestine that are not like, hideously biased towards one side or the other

@hallsongmedia Come back to this thread

Quotes from STARTING POINT (1979~1996), by Hayao Miyazaki a slow thread

@OldHollowTree Idk, I usually drink about one beer a week on fridays and it’s greatly improved my life

Drinking is just going into happiness debt, often with terrible interest.

@oscredwin You’re right about the ratios but you’re overlooking selection effects, I think most women who think the right is peak aren’t ones you’d want/could easily establish a stable relationship with

For most women, the pic on the left is more attractive. But the ratio of (men who look like that):(women who find that body peak) is probably better for the right. Also he's literally a professional bodybuilder excelling at his sport.

@9chabard You like tatran?

>the album i think of as “the new one” by a band i like just got a 10 year anniversary reissue >tfw

@DrAllyLouks Free Rothko alert!

Sometimes I feel like somebody’s watching me

@hormeze The Jerusalem one is so accurate, every time I’m there I’m amazed by it again

Thread on city syndromes- Jerusalem syndrome: ppl go manic because of spiritual intensity Florence syndrome: same as above but mania is due to beauty Paris syndrome: suicidal manic depression b/c reality isn't as good as fantasy

Barry had to save his mom

@JimDavisMTG @dominharvia @ReidDuke Fantastic video!

Have you ever wondered what it's like to test for and play in a Pro Tour with the best Magic players in the world? @ReidDuke and I show you! Behind The Pro Tour covers seven days of the testing house and #PTAetherdrift itself giving an unprecedented behind the scenes look! 🔗👇

I feel like men don’t pine and yearn in songs enough nowadays

@nosilverv I go to sleep at 9pm most days, the rest seems accurate tho

Thinking about how you wake/sleep schedule socially says a lot about you like. If you go to bed at: 6–8 PM → Grandpa 9 PM → (no one does this) 10 PM → Responsible 11 PM → Weird 12–1 AM → Young OR Lost 2-8 AM → Partying 9 AM–12 PM → Degenerate OR Night job If you wake up at: 4–5 AM → Overcompensating 6–7 AM → Grindset OR Farmer 8 AM → Reasonable Adult 9 AM → School Kid 10–11 AM → Teen OR Lazy 12 PM → Party Animal 1–2 PM → Rock Star OR Jetlagged 3–4 PM → Depressed 5PM-Evening → ??????

@OldHollowTree The 2nd

Which of these mugs is the best? I did a test run of 24 each but need to commit to more. What do you think?

@nosilverv The words ruin it, make kinda ironically cool to some people. I’d bet many less people would buy this if it was just the art or some more milquetoast phrase.

@St_Rev I think you’re living the popular medical drama “house” just fwiw

Realizing suddenly and profoundly that I just plain hate everybody. Then realizing even more profoundly that it's just because my legs hurt.

@eigenrobot I think it’s mostly people wanting to feel belonging in online spheres but also like, not wanting to uproot their entire life and country and stuff

@eigenrobot Yes but 99% of them go like “we are on stolen land, buuuuuuuuuuuuut let’s stay here obvvvvvvvv and also it’s kinda not stolen so who’s to say really”

do israeli leftists do canaanite land acknowledgements

@kenthecowboy_ Goddamn bruh you just blasted me straight to the stone age
