Joel Embiid: "It also helps when I saw number 11 on their team, before I came back, he said they didn't care if I was playing or not, and they hadn't even adjusted or had some sort of game plan for me. So I think it also helps when the other team doesn't worry about you."

Payton Pritchard on Joel Embiid being upgraded to available just before Game 4, via @zm_cox: "We just changed maybe a small adjustment before the game, but we didn’t talk about it at all."

Yes the parents have to foot the bill of the ambulance. Yes the hospital has a landing pad. Only extremely critical children can be landed there. Per Laurelhurst community guidelines. Most children have to endure the helicopter to ambulance route. You know, for the peace of the rich people. It was decided that their rich ears are more important than saving children. Nothing really shocks me anymore but this is just nasty. These people have so much money they could get new windows or MOVE!

So there’s this super rich neighborhood in Seattle. Laurelhurst. They are situated next to a children’s hospital. They decided that the helicopter sound is too loud for them. The helicopters that life flight critically injured children to the hospital. So if a child needs to be taken by helicopter, the pilot has to land a mile away from the hospital. An ambulance will be there to take the child the remaining distance. This is to ensure that the super rich people don’t have to hear helicopters.

Basically every Israel-Palestine debate goes like this:
"Israel did X."
"Yeah, because the Palestinians did Y."
"Yeah, because Israel did Z."
"Yeah but only because the Arabs did A."
But if you bring the debate back far enough in time, eventually you get to the part where the western world forcibly dropped a brand new ethnostate on top of a pre-existing civilization without the permission of — and to the extreme detriment of — the people who were already living there.
Sure you can go further back and say "Oh yeah well the Jews lived there thousands of years ago," but that's just silly. There's no valid reason to believe some Jewish guy in New York City even has any meaningful lineage connecting him to that land more strongly than any random Muslim in Turkey or wherever, and even if there was, it would still be absurd to cite ancient history as the basis for a territorial claim. I'm only a few generations removed from my ancestry in Ireland and Scotland, but it would be ridiculous for me to show up demanding the home of someone who lives there.
So the original source for the grievance is clearly the artificial creation of an ethnonationalist state in the mid-20th century, and the push by Zionists and western imperialists to make it happen.
And how has that decision worked out? You see the results before you. Generations of nonstop violence and abuse, culminating in the slaughter and chaos throughout the middle east today.
This means that creating Israel was a mistake. A mistake that needs to be corrected.
Zionists will collapse into a shrieking pile of vitriol and hyperbole when you say this, claiming you're calling for the extermination of Jews, but this is false. Certainly ending a national order premised on putting the interests of Jews before Palestinians and righting the wrongs of the past would inconvenience a lot of the Jewish people who've been living there, but there's no basis for the claim that it would entail their deaths. Apartheid South Africa was dismantled without the extermination of millions of white people, and there's no reason to believe the dismantling of apartheid Israel would entail the extermination of Jews.
The Israel experiment has been tried, and it has failed. It is time to try something else.

Jaylen Brown CALLED OUT Joel Embiid: "He was flopping around. He got some extra calls and stuff like that and they rewarded him for that. But that's the league that we're in.”
