The best thing that can happen right now is for the Israeli people to demand that Netanyahu resign or else face a regional war that nobody wants or needs.
Because if it had not been for him, this entire affair would probably not have happened.
It's time for him to go!

Sometimes you realize what a dirty gossip you are, I saw this pop up on YouTube, and thought, "Yeah baby, tell me that Filthy Yarn Scandal."

Y'all I don't knit, I'm not involved in this, but now I kind of want to be. Please everyone guess what the drama is!

@RickiTarr I didn't realize that yarn had a dark, seamy underside.

I must not become corrupted by their loose morals and skeins.

It is now illegal to have a paramilitary group or organize one in the state of Maine.
Neo-Nazis and white supremacists can go to Idaho if they don't like it.

This is where you found the names of people you wanted to call on your phone. It had their name, address, phone number. It included businesses, and government office numbers, as well as zip codes and local emergency numbers.

I don't get the genre of T-shirts and bumper stickers that are Wives proud of their husband's jobs.

@fmhilton@mastodon.sdf.org avatar

@RickiTarr I don't either. What about husbands doing the same.."Proud husband of a doctor" "Proud husband of a housewife"?

fmhilton,
@fmhilton@mastodon.sdf.org avatar

@RickiTarr And what about this one, then: "Proud spouse of a feminist"? That's pretty non-work.

The Florida Supreme Court has overturned the 6 week abortion law and at the same time, allowed a constitutional amendment enshrining abortion to go to the voters.
I hope to god the women just swamp this so the Republicans will drown.

What's the stock worth, again?
Nothing?

Anything over 0 is true speculation because Trump Media lost $58 m in 2023:

" Truth Social owner Trump Media & Technology Group disclosed Monday that it lost more than $58 million and generated very little revenue in 2023.'

@LeftistLawyer Modern economics is literally making the justification for slavery and poverty at the expense of human capital for the few who own property and have power.
A good example of that was the recent (yesterday) article the NY Times did on the sugar fields of India and how Coke & Pepsi, as well as the Indian government, prove this theory:

How very convenient:
The judge who ruled to restrict an abortion medication is married to the woman who belongs to the group that brought the case.
It's called corruption and he's in line for a SC seat if Trump wins?
Dear god, no.

Can someone please explain why, on a planet with 5 billion too many people and , declining birthrates are a problem?

I'm at a loss.

fmhilton,
@fmhilton@mastodon.sdf.org avatar

@LeftistLawyer Because the governments, billionaires and corporations need more bodies to sell more products to-and you will find that nobody in those three areas gives a shit about climate change and they're the ones denying/encouraging it. They're actually destroying the world for their ends but blaming us for not having enough babies to use in doing it.

fmhilton,
@fmhilton@mastodon.sdf.org avatar

@kolya @LeftistLawyer Which is why the rise of the anti-abortionists, christian nationalism is also all tied into this conversation of how many people need to have babies. American women are the main target because they're the most visible of 'women's lib' and thus the easiest one to attack with laws that keep their wombs and lives in cages. Also no divorce allowed, etc. All are on the agenda. Women are chattel.

While I feel for the people involved, isn't it time to get rid of the monarchy altogether? It's a vestige of a bygone time when empires were standard. Now all the royals do is open health care centers and make speeches about nothing at all. They can be dispensed with-they have enough money to live off. They don't need any public money. They're the 1%.

Sometimes something is so stupid you just want bang your head on something.

At one point, someone rightly said, Hey, we are giving the police an awful lot of power, they should probably have some kind of oversight.

The police: Sure, we'll get right on that, we'll create Internal Affairs.

The people: Oh, yeah good idea, who is going to run that?

The police: Ummm...well, us.

The people: Hey, that's probably not enough, you can't really police yourselves!

The police: Okay fine, you can make a Citizen Overwatch Committee.

The people: That's sounds great! How much money will we get to run this, and what kind of power will we have?

The police: Ohhh uhh, you're going to have to get volunteers, and you can make suggestions... to the most powerful, and well protected union in the world.

The people: You're at least going to enthusiastically support other people's rights to a strong working Union, right?

The police: Well, the thing is...

Silly Story Time:

My husband has always been scared of spiders. If a spider needed removed I would be the one to deal with it, as I've always admired their work. For whatever reason, spiders love our Bathroom, and there always seems to be one or two in there no matter what hubs has tried to keep them out. So, I started naming them, I called one Henry, and I told hubs that he was really social, because every time you'd sit down on the toliet, he would pop out of his hole and just sit by your feet until you were done, then he'd crawl back. Another one would crawl out by the wall when you'd shower, and I told him that was Henry's wife Helena, and she was kind of a pervert, because she liked seeing people naked, but Henry didn't mind, because he liked them freaky. Whenever we would come out of the bathroom, we started giving updates about what Henry and Helena were up to. One day they disappeared, and we were both kind of sad, but last night hubs comes out of the bathroom, and says, Come look! He points to the wall by the toliet, and there is a little spider, and he says, Henry, he had a son! We are very excited about this development!
