Im getting conflicting advice on my mild burn blister. Some say to drain it, some say leave it be, some say de-roof it aka peel the skin off of the top after draining.
"This inconsistency [in defining #genocide] will likely embarrass #Germany and others before the #ICJ when lawyers point out that they argue one thing in one case and the opposite in another.
The Court emphasized that the obligation to “prevent” genocide is meaningful and binding. States party to the Convention—including #Germany, the United States, and more than 150 others—have a duty to use their influence on other states or entities perpetrating genocide. (1/2)
United States, #Germany, and others— they can be held responsible as accomplices to genocide.
Furthermore, because the #ICC has jurisdiction over the territory of Palestine, this opens the possibility that German and American leaders could be investigated and potentially prosecuted as individuals for failing to prevent genocide or for aiding and assisting Israel.
Illinois is currently exploring the possibility of purchasing Covid-19 vaccines in bulk straight from manufacturers to make sure everyone will still have access.
Illinois’s JB Pritzker is leading a charge other Democratic governors should take up: In our America, we’ll make sure public health systems remain strong.
Florida police have discovered how migrants who cannot speak English have been getting licenses to drive 18-wheelers on the nation’s highways.
With news breaking all across the country of major highway accidents that have killed Americans perpetrated by non-English speaking migrants behind the wheels of massive semi trucks, many have wondered how they could be ...
getting their licenses. Investigators in Florida have discovered that one way is by using hidden cameras and ear pieces when they enter a drive’s license facility to take their commercial truck driving license (CDL) test, WTLV-TV reported.
Way before Jan 6, when a Trump speech was followed by his fans storming the capitol, there was the PBA riot, when a Giuliani speech was followed by NYPD cops storming NY City Hall, calling Dinkins, the city's 1st Black mayor, the n-word, and threatening him with harm.
Well, NYPD were beating and killing a lot of people, mostly Black and brown. The board responsible for police oversight was ineffective, as it was half cops and half civilians. That's like the "Chicken Safety Oversight Board" being half chickens and half foxes.🤡
After a Dominican man was killed, mayor Dinkins committed two unforgivable sins:
1) He met with the victim's family, and invited them to city hall.
2) He recommended that while policy boards should have both law enforcement and civilian members, the civilian oversight board should be... well... 100% civilian.
Then the Giuliani speech and city hall riot happened.
Then there was a very racist campaign for mayor, that Dinkins lost and Giuliani won.
Then Giuliani did his "broken windows" policing, resulting in significant pain to NYC Black and brown communities.
Then he supported the Patriot Act to further "War on Drugs" poor Black folk.
Then he did the election stuff that he is still paying for.
Because these things aren't taught in schools, and because US white folk generally don't bother to ask why US Black folk don't like a particular politician.🤷🏿♂️
Again, Woke is just "👩🏼Wow... I admit, I didn't know that many Black people growing up, so I didn't know any of this! Before I knew this stuff, a lot of things Black people ask for seemed... really unreasonable? But... the more I learn about this stuff, the more reasonable their asks seem?"
Given that as a white cis-het USA male, I didn't even know about the 1921 Tulsa massacre until its centennial, I only vaguely know of the NYPD City Hall riot (too similar to Jan 6?), and I have no idea what Colfax refers to. It's a crime these things are not well known.
Dude I watched a video about "why Indians keep getting killed by trains" and the theory was that it's a cultural thing. Like "I'll just get reincarnated. If I die it's because I did something in a past life"
It's those listless nights that create such desire for a playful goddess. Her wisdom of the years means she's more than capable of handling all of the complex emotions.

In an exclusive interview with ECPS, Professor William Schabas, one of the world’s foremost authorities on genocide and international criminal law, warns that the Gaza crisis represents a “litmus test” for the credibility of international justice.
The case filed by South Africa against Israel at the ICJ is “arguably the strongest case of genocide ever brought before the Court.”
hi guys, hope you're all doing well. My sleeping schedule is completely broken and I hate it. No matter how many times I tried to fix it, it always breaks itself again. Going to try and sleep now though
Whoever thought it was a good idea to rebrand the Undertaker as a biker and give him Rollin by Limp Bizkit as his theme song is brilliant and I hope that they did very well for themselves. That song fits so perfectly with the motorcycle engine sounds and the pyrotechnics, goosebumps every time. The motorcycle engine would echo off the arena walls. It was just so cool. This song doesn't even sound right to me without the motorcycle noises.
Robert Mueller has ‘difficulty’ speaking, will not testify before Congress.
Robert S. Mueller III, the former special counsel who investigated ties between President Trump’s campaign and Russia, was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease four years ago, his family said in a statement on Sunday.
A congressional committee has withdrawn a request for Mr. Mueller to give testimony this week in its inquiry into the government’s handling of the Jeffrey Epstein investigations. archive.is/LWglw
this takes me back to years ago when i went in to get a prescription for medical cannabis. They put us in a group interview like five or six of us together with the doctor and had each of us take a turn describing our symptoms and the guy to my right was talking about how he keeps having anxiety whenever he sees police vehicles and flashing lights. It gives him this pain in his neck. That's how I imagine this guy, the guy's like, yeah, I get this weird pain in my neck that feels like Hillary Clinton killing me whenever I think about this topic.
@Immahnoob I've been letting meililith ride me so since it keeps them from dying and afterwards if anyone dies she can revive them, while also I've been riding younger snow leopard sister to get the riding so, but damn that speed penalty
Music, spectator noise, and even the smell of marijuana: at the US Open. "it felt like we were in Snoop Dogg's living room." (Zverev) "Every time I approached the baseline to serve, everyone booed me." (Bonzi)
Sears is currently Lt Gov of VA. She was a Marine officer. GOP RINO swine do not support her
@carolmswain This Spanberger chick wins if Republicans don’t get off their duffs and get behind Winsome Sears. It would be a crime to have Virginia, a purple state, flip blue again. I speak as a native Virginian. I will be sending a donation to Winsome. winsomeforgovernor.com
"What About My Friends Who Don't Care About Gaza?", And Other Questions
This is just what happens when bad people in your life reveal an ugly truth about themselves. If you learn that someone in your life is cool with their government supporting a genocide, you can just sort of let your feelings and natural inclinations lead the way on that. caitlinjohnst.one/p/what-about…
"The day after George Clooney, Laura Dern, and Charlie Sheen arrived in Hungary to start shooting their scenes for the film, its co-producer, Joe Proctor, told his fellow co-producer, Suzanne G. Nagy, that there was no more money to make it. He left 30 minutes later, abandoning 300 people that were already on the set to their fates."
“And what haunts me, is that in all the faces of all the bears that Treadwell ever filmed, I discover no kinship, no understanding, no mercy. I see only the overwhelming indifference of nature. To me, there is no such thing as a secret world of the bears. And this blank stare speaks only of a half-bored interest in food. But for Timothy Treadwell, this bear was a friend, a savior. He never thought to bring a bazooka” -Werner Herzog, probably #Monsterdon
Also hello #Monsterdon, Hachyderm was under serious maintenance woes at the start of the movie and I've been cooking along with the movie for that hour anyway
for a second I thought our final act would be these two schmucks farting around in the forest, but I keep forgetting about Mr. "I live with the bears, many of my closest friends are bears" Treadwell over here
I guess he is going to be the cornerstone of the resolution in this JAWS-like.
That might be first time we've watched a 70s movie and I've thought to myself, "wow, cool zoom" but the camerawork here on the first watch was pretty good IMO? Not fancy, but well-done.
@nev @miru in my defense I listened to like 50% of it with occasional glances at the screen.
But yea, I grade on a curve for how old the movie is. For a JAWS-like so close to the original release, that was honestly a lot better than I expected it to be.
