“Taken together, what does this all imply? While the evidence is not dispositive, it is highly suggestive that a process unconnected or loosely connected to reality was used to report the numbers. Most likely, the Hamas ministry settled on a daily total arbitrarily. We know this because the daily totals increase too consistently to be real. Then they assigned about 70% of the total to be women and children, splitting that amount randomly from day to day. Then they in-filled the number of men as set by the predetermined total. This explains all the data observed.” https://www.tabletmag.com/sections/news/articles/how-gaza-health-ministry-fakes-casualty-numbers

I do not understand the urge to rage-watch political theater. It's ok to turn it off.

Aha! Fucking called it. This “colonialism” meme began in response to Hamas committing genocide. Depicted is a Google trends graph of the search term “colonialism” which has a clear peak on October 8, 2023.

All of you talking about colonialism lately can go fuck yourselves you racist pieces of garbage. Fuck all the way off.

My thoughts to Billie Eilish...
I want a ceasefire too, but one with the hostages home and safety for our people assured. I know you're not antisemetic but I expected better of you. I thought you would've known the origins of a symbol you wear are the bloody hands of those who murdered innocent Jews who entered a Palestinian territory by a literal mistake and had been lynched for it. The red bloody hand symbol is not a sign of caring for Palestinians, it's a symbol of celebration of slaughter

@skaly guess it doesn’t require a trendy clothier to make Nazi symbolism trendy this time around

Are you calling for a ceasefire in Gaza but not in Ukraine? Racism is a helluva drug.

IDF releases recordings of UNRWA teachers taking part in Oct. 7 massacres - JNS.org

Oh, so the fucking teachers were the terrorists? No wonder schools got destroyed when the staff is moonlighting as a militia and stashing their weapons in said school. Glad I’ve learned so many war strategies for future conflicts! Going to make a human shield out of Morty clones like in that Rick & Morty episode. Don’t touch me or you’re worse than Hitler. https://www.jns.org/idf-releases-recordings-of-unrwa-teachers-taking-part-in-oct-7-massacres/

I can tell that we’re absolutely fucked with global warming. There has been exponentially more effort put into being antisemitic and chanting for Jewish genocide than anything close to necessary to save our fucking planet. Where are the weekly and daily climate protests? Boycotts of oil and gas companies? Constant harassment of the executives and politicians responsible for the global warming status quo? Nope, just anger at the Jews.

There was a span of time when it seemed like every kid was named something like Jaxyn or Brynleigh but I haven't seen those types of names in a little while so my best guess is that they all died doing dumb TikTok challenges.

Wait, mastodon in Hebrew is mastodon? 🤔

Who decided “v” can also be “o”?

sickmatter,
@sickmatter@babka.social avatar

@eshton damn this app. I had a response for this, but it disappeared for your edit. Anyways, I was about to ask if dropping the vav was to get a schwa sound in Eshton instead of an “oh” sound, but it sounds like yes?

sickmatter,
@sickmatter@babka.social avatar

@eshton that’s a smart idea! Unfortunately, not many other languages have a “th” sound, so I can’t translate my full name (Matthew) without it changing a bunch. A similar Hebrew name is Mattiyanu which is too complicated for me (as is Matthew to be honest). That leaves מט or מת as potential Matt options, but I’m a n00b with Hebrew, so I don’t know which is more appropriate

sickmatter,
@sickmatter@babka.social avatar

@eshton Matti is one name I found (probably spelled the same as Matt)

‘Perhaps most astounding about the U.N.’s impractical ceasefire option is that it totally ignores the most obvious solution: Surrender by Hamas and freeing of the hostages. Why does no world leader, international body or mainstream media outlet demand Hamas’s unconditional surrender—especially since this would solve every problem a ceasefire does not?

A surrender would end the bloody war and stop the killing. It would non-violently meet Israel’s goals. It would allow humanitarian aid to flow without limits. It would allow Gazans and the international community to start building a free society based on peace with its neighbors.’
