The Yamnaya archaeological complex appeared around 3300BCE across the steppes north of the Black and Caspian Seas, and by 3000BCE reached its maximal extent from Hungary in the west to Kazakhstan in the east. To localize the ancestral and geographical origins of the Yamnaya among the diverse Eneolithic people that preceded them,...
A lot of the larger abandoned magazines are just spam pools now.

Imagine going through the soul crushing hell of being a committed and earnest election worker in a failing 21st century democracy and then the clouds part and in one shining moment you can tell boris you have no idea who he is, but he'll need ID.
Like seriously consider it. Do you say "on your bike son"? Can you resist flipping him off? The joy he gave that one person might be the single act of good in johnson's entire life.
In a powerful and rousing live address to students at the City University of New York (CUNY) on Friday night, the incarcerated Black political activist Mumia Abu-Jamal praised the pro-Palestinian movement growing at US colleges as being on the right side of history....
While a police officer was beating his younger brother for driving while black, Abu-Jamal was nearby and came to the rescue, shooting at the police officer who died after shooting Mumia.
Mumia Abu-Jamal is in prison for defending his brother from racist police violence.
calling antisemitism “a vile and disgusting form of bigotry that has done unspeakable harm to many millions of people”.
“But, please, do not insult the intelligence of the American people by attempting to distract us from the immoral and illegal war policies of your extremist and racist government. Do not use antisemitism to deflect attention from the criminal indictment you are facing in the Israeli courts. It is not antisemitic to hold you accountable for your actions,”
I love all the ritualized behaviour, secret meanings and unexpected taboos - standing up when someone of higher status stands, elaborate rules for serving and eating, tapping the table to thank the server, never refuse a toast from a superior, stuff like that....
An undercover police officer arranged to buy 2 magic mushroom chocolate bars over Instagram then opened fire within seconds, killing the driver and injuring the passenger for selling $100 worth of antidepressants. Perfectly justified.

Irish solidarity with the Palestinian cause has been massive for decades.
That's almost certainly what the Israeli player was referring to with this malicious mischaracterization:
It’s known that they are quite antisemitic and it’s no secret, and maybe that’s why a strong game is expected
Something about being brutalized and treated as second class citizens in your own home by a militarily dominant power seems to generate empathy for the plight of Palestinians.
Ooph, these comments. Obviously this incredibly incompetent move from pelosi is going to hurt democrats.
According to the latest polling, half of all democrats and half of all 18-35 (edit: 18-29)year olds view this as a genocide. Of the other half, more are undecided than don't think it's a genocide.
You can't insult serious beliefs of half your base and think there won't be consequences.
Of course trump is a serious threat to democracy. Just like the last time I'm going to hold my nose and vote for biden. And just like last time, senior democrats are going to do everything in their power to shoot themselves in the foot.
Interpret improvements as you like. For me it's any large scale reforms or legislative packages designed to improve the country for all or see to the material interests of the majority without overly benefiting the elite....
Imagine how damning their behavior must be that they paid half a billion to cover it up. 10,000 people in the US could live comfortably for a year on this single hush money payment.
People are taking this as a dig on China, but it's a tale of how fragile nationalists are the world over. This is a level of dumb on par with freedom fries.
Norway’s prime minister says the Israeli army’s response to the deadly Hamas attack that killed 1,400 people and saw over 230 abducted by terrorists has been disproportionate, and denounces a “catastrophic” humanitarian situation in Gaza.
At uni a friend of mine wrote a book review of the bible that began, "Not since Naked Lunch has such a dull book been saved by the constant barrage of sadomasochistic homosexual pornography."
A former GOP donor, who once made headlines after calling former president Barack Obama the N-word, fatally shot himself after attempting to kill his wife, according to reports.
In case you were wondering how an obviously insane person comes to be that rich, it's from stealing your data.
Apparently he was the founder and chief data scientist at SMA Communications. From their website:
SMA Communications owns data on over 247 million consumers and over 49 million business contacts. We also have over 179 million registered Voters, 165 million automobile owners, Social media connections and more.
企鵝 is penguin. By itself, 企 means to stand on tiptoes, or to expect something. It's also the first character in 企業, business. Sometimes business is abbreviated as just 企.
But "commitment" in English doesn't literally mean 'commercial glove noun' just because 'com' can be short for commercial, and mit means glove.
Chants of “See our might, see our power, landlords get no happy hour” ... “Parasite!” and “Get a job!”
Love it!
About an hour into the rally, the picketers entered the venue ... Witnesses said a male attendee of the BPOA event [landlord] then slapped a female TANC member [protester] in the face and pushed her.
Thuggish landlords throwing their weight around? I'm shocked. Interestingly, police who were monitoring refused to enter the venue.
No one's profits are more important than anyone's right to shelter. While there'll never be justice in a world with landlords, at least there can be some nice music:
We need to see some pain in the economy. We need to remind people that they work for the employer, not the other way around... There's been a systemic change where the employees feel that the employer is extremely lucky to have them, as opposed to the other way around.
So said every vicious aristocrat throughout history.
Whether owner of slaves, serfs or workers - elites always believe it's their right to inflict harm on others.
