The United Nations’ humanitarian chief has warned of “apocalyptic” consequences due to aid shortages in Gaza, where Israel’s military offensive in the southern city of Rafah has blocked desperately needed food....
EDIT: To be clear I’m not saying he’s wrong, but it’s a very strange use of language to describe geopolitical events. Not to downplay the genocide, but there is a fucking lot going on in the world and Apocalypse doesn’t quite describe the Fall of Israel, imo.
TBH I just stick to the feed and block the communities I don’t want to see. Especially avoid anything on Hexbear or lemmy ml, those instances are CCP propoganda trying to convince the west to off each other and themselves.
The other day I got banned from A Boring Dystopia@Lemmy.world for providing verifiable historical context to the bombing of the MOVE cult. Not for taking a stance on either side of the issue, but just for fighting misinformation in the comments. I had like a 40 to 13 upvote ratio on a comment as long as a page, but the mod wants to marginalize and radicalize people so they deleted everything I posted in the thread.
A federal judge in Fort Worth, Texas, on Friday blocked a new Biden administration rule that would prohibit credit card companies from charging customers late fees higher than $8....

Technically the meaning behind the word sodomy was never recorded consistently through the ages so you can basically say it’s whatever you want and therefor the bible is against it. For example, maybe Felatio is Sodomy. Maybe non-metaphorically eating corndogs is Sodomy. Or both or neither.
Then by your argument, the bible contains no English words because it was written in hebrew and therefore any quotes from the bible not made directly in hebrew are false. Sodomy is directly the same in meaning as the Sin of Sodom as it has evolved from exactly that phrase and has kept it’s meaning consistently.
The first child’s play movie wasn’t saw, the UK definitely wasn’t 3 when you had seen it, and saw was never banned in the UK although Grotesque and several Chainsaw Massacre films were. /s
If companies see titles like Overwatch and Fortnite and want to be MORE like that, then I’m just done with anything other than Indie Games and Singleplayer at this point.
PACs are not nation state entities, they’re pipelines for corporations to fund election campaigns. They’re a stain on the earth as a whole, that this PAC wants favorable outcomes doesn’t change that.
