⭕️ Palestinian UN ambassador drops vice presidency bid after U.S. pressure Palestinian U.N. Ambassador Riyad Mansour is withdrawing his bid for vice president of the U.N. General Assembly, NPR reported, after the U.S. threatened to revoke visas for the Palestinian delegation if he did not stand down. A State Department cable instructed U.S. diplomats in Jerusalem to warn Palestinian officials that Mansour’s candidacy “fuels tensions” and risks undermining Trump’s Gaza plan, adding: “We will hold the PA responsible if the Palestinian delegation does not withdraw its VPGA candidacy.”  The cable noted that visa sanctions previously waived for Palestinian U.N. officials could be reinstated. The Palestinian delegation relayed, through an Arab country, that Mansour would refrain from running for the next two years, in what observers described as a potential reference to the end of President Trump’s term. Lebanon’s ambassador will take his place, the U.N. said.  Mansour had previously withdrawn his candidacy for the full presidency of the General Assembly following U.S. pressure in February, according to Reuters, which obtained the State Department cable.

“It is understood that one version of the guidance said organisations would be able to question trans people over whether they should be using single-sex services based on how they look, their behaviour or concerns raised by others.” So glad that we can finally quiz women over whether they look sufficiently femme, but y’know, “feministly”. This definitely won’t backfire on anyone.

People wanted Homelander to scorch the Earth, Don't want to die, and Win in the end That’s exactly what’s wrong with people as a society, Makers don't want to leave that image, don't want bad people to win Homelander did horrible things. He ruined lives, killed innocent people, and treated himself like a god. A character like that doesn’t deserve a glorious ending. And that’s why his death worked. He didn’t die with aura or pride. He died like a human being scared, desperate, begging for survival in front of Butcher and live television. The man who saw himself as a god was reduced to fear and helplessness. That’s the most satisfying ending a villain like Homelander could get. Evil shouldn’t be rewarded just because it looks cool.
