@phaedral Yeah, it was the week we did Frogs (1972), but there was a 1992 movie also called Frogs which was technically a sequel but not labeled as such, and was considerably more popular, so it was easy to mix up the two. So during the week leading up to the event, @Taweret and others kept reminding people not to do a #WrongFrogs by watching the 1992 version by mistake.
After we finished watching the 1972 Frogs, a few of us randomly decided we wanted to watch the 1992 Frogs as a double feature. So we did.
@Taweret @diazona @phaedral See, now, upon reading that I now want to watch the wrong movie while everyone else is watching something one of these weeks. 😁
Also, now I want to see what even is going on with the 1992 Frogs, rofl.
"One of the most important services required of [yellow pigments] was to imitate the appearance of gold. Another of their chief functions was to modify the qualities of greens and, to a less extend, of reds. Of all their uses, perhaps the least important was to represent yellow things."
Mumia Abu-Jamal’s Eyesight Endangered Due to Medical Negligence
Imprisoned for more than 43 years in the United States, Mumia Abu Jamal suffers from irreversible vision loss that can lead to permanent blindness. His eyesight is threatened by two correctable conditions. The Pennsylvania Department of Corrections and his contracted health care provider, Wellpath, allowed his eyesight to deteriorate to the point of rendering him functionally blind. In particular, his treatments for his cataract and recently diagnosed diabetic retinopathy were delayed for several months. His supporters encourage people to contact the prison to demand that he receive appropriate treatment (see here).

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.
Whenever I give a new browser a try, always have to clean out all the paid links they include.Like installing Windows and spending time deleting bloatware. At least this takes a fraction of the time.
"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.

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
