Me too, but it’s better late than never

I get that people think that but it’s a stupid take really. Hearing loss is a big contributor to senility.

Yeah but they’re arab lives, so they don’t count them.

It would look bad for a lot of governments if we knew what our militaries did. McBride’s information looked bad for multiple governments so they all agreed to use him as an example.

Even the most secure VPN technology is only as secure as the endpoint.

I genuinely read the headline and thought “Good on them for standing up for the hundreds of thousands of Palestinians imprisoned in Gaza”, and then I realised the truth.

The difference is that Vietnam and Afghanistan were civil wars. It’s very difficult to win a war when a sizable portion of the citizens are fighting against you. Ukraine seems to be very united against a common enemy: Russia.

The number of MPs who own investment properties means that this IS going directly to the source, but it’s doing it in a manner that they can’t fob off, ignore, or form a committee about.

Agreed. I dislike these countries because of who they are, not how they got rich.

It’s pestilence, but I think petulance actually suits Trump better

Airports charge money to use the Skybridge. If you travel with cheap airlines then you’ll often go to gates without bridges. It’s actually amazing the things that airports charge for.

Fortunately he doesn’t have to worry too much about Hamas because he’s not occupying their land.

The next best time was 29 years ago.

Ok, so there’s a risk of death. If I’m on a desert island then I’ll risk it, otherwise I’ll avoid.

I think it’s time we start publicly shaming Israelis and Jews who don’t make strong statements condemning the murder of civilians and protesting the reckless-at-best and seemingly genocidal actions of their government.

Are you deliberately trying to use the same language as was used against Muslims 20 years ago?

I mean, it’s not out of character historically.

There are bands I wish I got to see live, but not many who I wish were still creating music - because bands generally break up when the members change and grow apart and they can no longer make the music they came together to make.

Just like a once great TV show that jumps the shark, we should applaud when a band decides that their creative race is run and they call it quits.

On that, I wish I’d seen (or even knew about) The Dillinger Escape Plan in their day. I wish I’d seen RATM live.

Edit: I just remembered another one. I saw this little domestic band, Horace Bones, play one of the smaller rooms at a festival once. Their set was absolutely amazing, and while their one album is good, it’s not like the live experience they put on that day. They played one or two more shows after that festival then disappeared, just ghosted their socials etc. I still have their tshirt from that gig.

Because I have multiple doors in my house which lead outside. I normally take my shoes off when I come inside, but sometimes I come in one door and then want to leave via a different door only to realise my shoes are at the other end of the house.

Or meat swing

Depending on the property that’s a pretty good deal.
