Today they have something like 7 minutes to decide whether to launch a retaliatory strike if missiles are en route if recall correctly, 12 hours seems like a luxury.
I’m not sure if this is the right community for this question, but it says “no stupid question” so here goes. I’m an Israeli who now lives in the US, but I am considering permanently residing in the US or elsewhere (perhaps somewhere in Europe or Canada) because I’ve become kinda disillusioned with Israel for a variety...
That's entirely subjective and up to you, however, I feel like I should point out we're dealing with our own erosion of democracy issues in the United States as well.
Public libraries are supposed to be places for communities to gather and learn, with an important focus on being a place for kids to gain access to information. But thanks to a moral panic in the GOP about “indoctrination” in libraries, it seems that at least one library has decided to shut its door to children....
This asshole went out of his way to demonize all of fast food, when he hid his alcoholism away and instead blamed fast food. Like for his liver problems. Fast food doesn't do that. Alcohol does. BIG FUCKING CLUE!
Actually, sugars have a very similar metabolic pathway to alcohol, (the presentation is a bit long but it's fascinating and worth it in my opinion,) and many of the same negative health effects apply. They both have to become fat in your liver before they can be turned into energy.
Well, that's a shame. For those who haven't seen it, the first episode of 30 days that he created was probably one of the most impactful documentaries I've seen, it follows a West Virginia mining family as they deal with some very serious shit. Worth watching.

Trump is undoubtedly bad for the US, like a brexit that only lasts 4 years, (hopefully.) He destroys our international credibility and will leave an indelible scar on our international relationships.
However, this statement doesn't make sense:
I like Trump, Biden's gonna support Israel and all sorts of other enemies to us and so fuck him, we like Trump.
Trump will give Israel a blank check, and he'll probably want to push the missile launch buttons himself if given the opportunity. He even recognized Jerusalem as the capital of Israel.
