Israel arms ISIS-jihadists to fight against Hamas just like they armed Hamas to fight against the PFLP.

You may ask yourself “when will they ever learn?” but that's assuming the Israeli government's goal is to live in peace. Why should they need to learn, when arming terrorist groups that destabilize and escalate this conflict isn't a mistake?

Considering how much genocide, ethnic cleansing, settler colonialism and hence the expansion of their borders they have been able to justify due to hamas; considering their main argument behind stopping the entry of humanitarian aid was because they were sometimes raided by terrorist militias, which as it now turns out they funded, it was a worthy investment.

@unknownpseudoartist we both put out music with cats. you and i understand the internet 😛
i also like that you have your own site! im at work but got a tab open for you. ill be checking out your tunes when i get home!

also, you should check out indieart.support and shout out with your artist details @hello to get on the directory!

in reply to Unknown Pseudoartist

so im inclined to scold you for all your self-deprecation but then i would be a hypocrite. but i do like this part:

"Basically this is that kind of music you'd expect to find in a random MySpace or Soundclick profile in the 2000s. That kind of thing you'd get 128k MP3 downloads in a static HTML site. That kind of stuff that would normally be done by some passionate young person who just discovered they can do cool stuff to share online in a cyberworld full of people willing to discover and listen more random, creepy stuff like this. "

and i think you'll find plenty of company around here. especially as a #caturday-er.

anyways, you do a really good job with bass sounds. the overall tonal quality and just getting bass synth sounds. often times better than actual bass guitar but let's not awaken the bassists, right? i aint tryna die right before the weekend.
favorite track on the placeholder of something... i think gotta be absurd. ill check out the other album after this last listen.

in reply to benda

hey thanks a lot for listening! this means a lot to me ❤️ (even if I don't agree with my fake bass sounding any better than real bass haha)

Regarding the self-deprecant comments... well, it's complicated, but let's say I was in a bad time and dealing with a bad situation in certain communities regarding harsh criticism and I was tired of that, and just felt the need to break with that and go more my way without any pressure. Feeling a lot better about that already, so no worries 😀

in reply to Unknown Pseudoartist

thats good to hear. theres a lot of pressure from our economic and societal systems to make the creation of art something that turns a profit, or needing to be a certain amount of prolific. all nonsense. the point of making art is the part where you are making it. that journey, that mindset. the best therapy, imho (or at least thats what i keep telling myself bc hell no i;m not paying for therapy lol).
in reply to benda

heck yeah! Couldn't agree more. In fact sometimes it's not even about economic stuff but more like some folks pretending to be Yngwie Malsteen (even when Yngwie seems to be not that arrongant anymore haha), or obsessing on production/mixing (which can be kinda elitistic, since oftentimes that's more a matter of money and expensive tools rather than simply doing stuff). Art should be more about having fun and expressing things, not about bratting or obsessing on getting better at it!
in reply to benda

and yeah, I like the idea behind the paragraph you quoted! I can't say I was a huge fan of everything that was done in the internet in the mid-late 2000s, and it wasn't the greatest times for many people (too much of bigot bullsh*t, you know). But when it comes to art and creatives stuff, definitively missing that special charm and the prominence of more amateur-ish attitude, in the best way. I just love the underground side of music and art 😀 and it's a pity some of that got lost.

Occasional renewal of the prediction that Trump will not finish his term, and I think it's even plausible he'll be out by the midterms.

The current situation is unsustainable, even for the people who are benefiting most from it. Those people will, of course, try to keep him in place as long as they can, but it's a losing battle. With a lot of ugly tradeoffs in the meantime.

Sadly, Dem leadership are among the ones who believe they benefit. They don't even try to hide it. Schumer and Jeffries, like the fash faction and theocrat faction, want to keep Donny Littlehands in the Oval Office as long as possible, because they think that's what's best for them. Lesser techbros will start turning on Trump now, with Musk and Thiel paying the bills, but they can't do much harm without getting hurt back. And the bigger techbros (Goog, MS, FB, Apple, Amazon) are basically part of the Big Bidness faction. That faction isn't going to defect until the very very last minute.

BTW if you want to be horrified go look for Jeffries's response when a journalist asked if he was planning to do anything about Trump having crossed Jeffries's "red line" of congressional arrests. When I say he'll be much worse than Pelosi that's what I mean. Pelosi was good at procedure and knew how to use money to whip. The only things Jeffries is good at are passing the buck and reassuring donors.

That means the rest of us just have to hope we survive, and that midterms don't get derailed by a terrorist attack, and Trump doesn't get martyred in a way that cements GOP power, or any of a dozen other obvious that could wreck the possibility of Dems regaining control of one or both chambers.

Been off my anti depressants since April now and now I feel like I've reached a state of craziness. I've developed an unhealthy obsession with someone (who hopefully doesn't know, but I did send a Facebook request), and am not sleeping at night. If I don't work through this over the weekend, I'm afraid it is back to the Zoloft for me.

Keep checking my fb to see if the request is accepted, and I'm guessing it will not be. Keep checking said persons active status on Teams at work. Keep trying to walk past said person. I am a psycho.

Also in the strangest coincidence, when I tried messaging said person at work, it actually failed to go through. You can't block internal people so that was fucking weird.

Sure, people could move away to more liberal/open platforms like PeerTube, but the audience there is too fragmented and small to sustain creators financially. Things just aren’t quite there yet


And why are people on YouTube? Because that’s where the content is. Viewers won’t move away until after content creators do. You are the people with the power to do this.

If the g flag is not used, only the first complete match and its related capturing groups are returned.


It returns the first match (which is aabb) and its capturing groups, which in this case are (aa) (matching "aa") and (bb) (matching "bb").

@notype @barubary well im a third of the way through the course, the lesson is on regex, although they already covered /regex/g and /regex/i in a earlier lesson. it doesnt seem to complicated for where i am at right now, its just they didn't really explain it. just threw it out there along with a method that they didn't teach me either. that's what really threw me off is i didn't realize the .match() method was also returning the search elements.
in reply to benda

@notype @barubary I came at this a different way, and wondered what the heck the /d modifier is doing. Turns out:

1) W3schools is completely wrong about what it does (shocker, I know 🙄); and
2) All it does is add a particular extra bit of information to the return value.

I'm getting my info from stackoverflow.com/a/73947884, to which I am greatly indebted, and major props to SO user Andrejs. I reproduced their work with the text and RE under consideration here. 1/2

i got my regex introduction from the perl book. simple, no-nonsense: perldoc.perl.org/perlre

here's another classic book, though more hefty: regex.info/book.html

whatever you do with these old documents, skip over the software specifics (which are outdated) & go directly to the regex syntax (which has barely changed since).

"Merz remains silent - Trump boasts about Nord Stream stop

🇺🇸💥 “I was the one who stopped Nord Stream 2. I sent this to Germany... I'm sorry - or not.” - Donald Trump, live in front of cameras.

📍 And sitting right next to him is German Chancellor Friedrich Merz. Silent. In agreement. Not a word of indignation.

What does that mean?
➡️ The German chancellor sits wordlessly by as the former US president openly admits to destroying Europe's most important energy connection - and does so in a tone of mockery.
➡️ Trump makes it clear: it was never about freedom or security - it was about American gas, American interests and geopolitical control.
➡️ He even calls it part of a possible trade deal. Energy as a means of blackmail.

🇩🇪 Merz's silence is consent. The closest US ally in Europe - and no dissent, no “How dare you?”, no protection of German sovereignty.

❗️Was Is this a chancellor who sits next to someone who openly talks about sabotage - and who simply lets it stand?
❗️Was Is this a German foreign policy that allows the destruction of critical infrastructure to be publicly served up by its “partner” of all people?"

The Failing New York Times and the Washington ComPost, two “papers” that have ruthlessly fought me for years, have each done Polls where a vast majority of those sampled are Democrats. In other words, the Polls, just like their writings, are RIGGED - It is not possible for a Republican to do well in such a Poll! They are “corrupt as hell.” The real Polls out there have me doing better than ever before, JUST LIKE ELECTION DAY, 2024, where I WON seven out of seven Swing States, the Popular Vote, and Districts by 2,750 to 505. I won the Election in a landslide! The Fake News Media is Failing Our Nation at levels never seen before. MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN!

Trump Always Chickens Out

#NeonRevolt observes that the reason the #TACO acronym has landed so powerfully is because #PresidentTrump has an observable #pattern of reliably chickening out and failing to implement both his literal and implied promises:


Sorry @realdonaldtrump, but it’s true. We voted for #DOGE changes, because all you have been offering of late is tired old platitudes and slavish devotion to #Zionists and #Zionist causes (because you likely feel you couldn’t have won without Adelson money). You don’t even measure up to your old tweets, which used to inspire. Instead, we get stump speeches for the likes of #LindseyGraham.

There’s a reason “TACO” exists as an acronym now, and I was trading successfully with it long before the media pointed it out. You TACO’d during #Covid, you TACO’d on #J6, and you’re TACO’ing all the way through your second term thus far, as far as I can see right now.

It’s why you literally want to create a digital database of every American now, using a the technology developed by a company that was literally funded by #JeffreyEpstein – and let me guess, it will be used to root out “aNtIsEmiTiSm.”


The most effective rhetoric is always based in the truth. It only burns because it’s true. I have increasingly little sympathy for President Trump, even though he is a) the #greatest #US #president since #AndrewJackson and b) he faces a degree of difficulty much greater than anyone, including myself, is capable of understanding.

But it’s one thing to fail to end the #FederalReserve or #deport 50 million #foreigners, both of which would obviously be monumental tasks that would be difficult to accomplish. It’s another to fail to #prosecute anyone, from #JoeBiden and #HillaryClinton on down for their many #crimes against the #American #people, to refuse to step forward and simply tell the American people the whole truth about everything from #JFK to Jeffrey Epstein, and to refuse to shut down the #Kiev #regime’s ability to prolong its unwinnable war against #Russia.

There would be nothing easier than for #Trump to force Kiev to surrender. He could have ended the #war in 24 hours by announcing an end to all arms sales to any country that supplied Kiev with support, accompanied by 100 percent tariffs, US withdrawal from the #NATO treaty, and the immediate removal of all US troops from #Europe. Kiev and the #EU would have been begging #Putin to give them decent terms for surrender within 12 hours, and Putin would have given them a much better settlement than they’re going to end up with in 2026 after Russia takes the entire #BlackSea coast and all the land east of the #Dnieper.

But Trump chickened out.

If the President doesn’t want TACO to be his legacy, there is an easy solution. Do what you said you would do. Stop chickening out because some clown on your staff tells you it’s a bad idea. This isn’t that hard; the American people elected you, not anyone on your staff, or in the US military, or in an executive-branch agency, or at some conservative think tank.

And remember, it’s your legacy that will suffer, not theirs, when you take their bad advice.
