@MLBgami “Out of how many” matters! What are you trying to hide?!?!

FINAL: Reds 6, Red Sox 5 No scorigami. This score has happened 7,093 times in MLB history, most recently earlier today.

@Blueeyedbull56 @GovMikeHuckabee That’s like saying lederhosen = Nazi, or yarmulke = murder based on settler aggression You bear false witness - one of the commandments!

@GovMikeHuckabee This Latin Patriarch you mean? The one paying homage to the Jihadi terrorists killing Jews in Israel by wearing their Keffiya over his cardinal robes?

My statement re Prohibiting the Latin Patriarch of entering Church of Holy Sepulcher on Palm Sunday: While all Holy sites in the Old City are closed due to safety concerns for mass gatherings including the Western Wall, Church of the Holy Sepulcher and Al Aqsa Mosque, the action today by the Israel Nat'l Police to deny Latin Patriarch Cardinal Pierbattista Pizzaballa and 3 other priests from entering the Church to offer a blessing on Palm Sunday is an unfortunate overreach already having major repercussions around the world.  Home Front Command Guidelines restrict any gatherings to 50 people or less.  The 4 representatives of the Catholic Church were well below that restriction.  Statements from the Gov't of Israel indicate the action to prohibit Cardinal Pizzaballa entry to the Church of the Holy Sepulcher were for safety reasons, but churches, synagogues, and mosques throughout Jerusalem have met with the restrictions of 50 or less.  For the Patriarch to be barred from entry to the Church on Palm Sunday for a private ceremony is difficult to understand or justify. Israel has indicated it will work with the Patriarch to accommodate a safe means of carrying out Holy Week activities.

@bluewmist the only real answer is a well engineered heatpipe ice cream scoop that immediately melts into the tub the 2nd & 3rd best answers are le creuset cookware and THE jacket

What is a 'buy it for life' item that is offensively expensive, but the moment you use it, you realize your entire life before that point was a lie?

@bluewmist This German can opener. So precise and safe the cutaway part becomes a harmless lid afterwards If mine broke I’d replace it the same day no question roesle.com/en/can-opener-…

@Spike_Mordant @NormalIslandNws @grok George H.W. Bush stated in 1988: "I will never apologize for the United States—ever! I don't care what the facts are” about this incident. And the officer in charge of the Vincennes was given an award for the incident.

@NormalIslandNws @grok While the US didn't apologize for downing flight 655 or admit to any wrongdoing, President Reagan did express deep regret, and the US paid compensation to the victims' families. We'll see if we pay a dime for blowing up that girls' school.

Hi @grok is it true that on 3 July 1988, Iran shot down a US passenger plane with two surface-to-air missiles, killing all 290 people on board, and has never apologised? That would seem to me like an incredibly evil thing to do...

@Knightly_Hist Simple ignorance to break up the ancient sinosphere

I know it's old news but whenever people bring up the world outside Hogwarts I just remember that there's 1 school for the British isles... And the rest of the world looks like this.

@PicturesUssr Is that a callback to Kollontai’s “winged eros”?

Love should be pure and faithful! Beware of casual sexual contacts. — Soviet-Georgian poster (1975)

@empiresunchnd @Rainmaker1973 Since they weren’t vacuum for centuries, what’s different about the air that accompanied the discoverers?

The color loss happens within minutes of exposure to air, conservators working at the site developed the problem of watching pigment literally flake off before they could stabilize it. Chinese and German researchers spent years developing a consolidant that could be applied immediately upon excavation to fix the pigment in place, but the technology arrived too late for the figures uncovered in the early years. The warriors the world knows as grey terracotta were originally painted in vivid purples, greens, reds and blacks using a pigment called Han purple, a synthetic compound whose production formula was independently invented in China and has no parallel anywhere else in the ancient world.

Today in 1974 the Terracotta Army was discovered. This photograph shows the freshly excavated pit with 2,000-year-old warriors still showing the original color scheme before the rapid deterioration that made them as we know them today.

@andee4real @cenkuygur @billmaher If you insist we’ll use the word bigot

@cenkuygur @billmaher You’re an illiterate. Racism is discrimination based on race not religion.

I think @billmaher is the biggest racist in American media. His hatred of Muslims would make Mark Levin blush. If anyone said anything about Jewish people or countries that Maher says about Muslims, they would be banned from US media forever. He's both ignorant and unintelligent.

@B2BFCM @cenkuygur @billmaher Bigoted then. Good point.

@cenkuygur @billmaher He has a hatred for the religion. That's not racist.

@TheFlagGuy_ @cenkuygur @billmaher Israel has the rape problem. Even among themselves, let alone their Palestinian victims. They held right to rape rallies ffs. One hostage was upset Hamas don’t rape her. She was released and then raped by an Israeli gym trainer 🙄🤦‍♂️

@cenkuygur @billmaher Everyone is learning just how disgusting the rapist Islamists are. Don’t try deflecting to Jews.

@VividProwess That’s exactly how colonial outposts start. This map harms your point

Do you see that tiny RED dot? That’s Israel, the only Jewish state in the world. They want you to believe that the tiny RED dot is the oppressor and colonizer, and that the GREEN Muslim countries surrounding it are the oppressed. Do they realize how ridiculous they sound?

@ornerydonowitz @DavidAstinWalsh So pointless the whole US establishment got off its ass in lockstep to crush them

@DavidAstinWalsh Well, as a Palestine dead-ender you would be an expert on pointless protests.

The "No Kings" protests feel especially pointless today.

@TaliGoldsheft Pathetic how hard you’re grasping at straws! Plan to murder then flee beyond our jurisdiction? Sounds relevant and inculpatory. And unless it’s a lie, you’re just cranky about the truth being true And your beef is with the Jewish terrorists who named the JDL, nobody else

Let’s break down what Mamdani did yesterday. Zohran Mamdani had to delete his first post yesterday which originally described someone “attempting to blow up” Nerdeen Kiswani’s house—pure anger-stoking rhetoric. Then, he still deliberately chose to spell out “Jewish Defense League” (not just the commonly abbreviated term JDL, like his post about the ISIS-inspired terrorists). He had to shove “Jewish” front and center at the top of the post. He wrote about fighting against political violence while ignoring Kiswani’s repeated calls for “resistance by any means necessary.” The “flee to Israel” detail? Completely unnecessary. Kiswani loved it, and retweeted it enthusiastically. Deliberate fuel on the fire. He knows what he’s doing. He’s pretending to speak against political violence while inciting it.

@Rainmaker1973 Looks like a mouthful of saltwater too

Did you know? Whale milk is 50% fat and so thick it won’t dissolve in water, allowing calves to drink straight from the ocean.

@JewsFightBack Germany gave away so much art after WW2. How sweet and cuddly

47 years ago today, Israel gave Egypt the Sinai. Three times the size of Israel today. Given up for peace. Show me another country willing to compromise this much for peace. I’ll wait.

@JewsFightBack Look at the borders of Germany before & after WW2. By your logic they were even more magnanimous and peace loving 🤡🙄🤮

@ArsSababa @Telegraph @channingms1 Unlikely due to Israel’s indescribably evil actions in past years. Jews fighting Israel’s genocidal apartheid prove what a great people Jews have been for millennia

@Telegraph @channingms1 Wait…. So you mean a lot of the hate directed at Israel might just have nothing to do with current events because it’s only a continuation of centuries of European Jew hatred?!?!?

🚨 EXCLUSIVE: Green Party activists have described Jewish people as “an abomination to this planet” in a string of anti-Semitic WhatsApp messages, The Telegraph can reveal 🔗: telegraph.co.uk/politics/2026/…

@BWNort @Telegraph Isn’t that “reports submitted” and not “reports substantiated by police”? If so, it’s easy to manipulate that stat in bad faith. I suspect you chose the word “experience” to twist the truth: it means “reported” but is likely to be confused for “substantiated”

@Telegraph In the UK, malice toward others is disproportionately directed at Jewish citizens. Jews experience the highest rate of hate crimes compared to all other people groups, races, ethnicities, and religious adherents. Combined. Here's just one comparison.
