Mexican Restaurant's Authenticity Questioned After Experiencing Zero ICE Raids
"It's a bad look," said former patron Dan Billings. "How do you claim to serve authentic Mexican cuisine and your kitchen door hasn't even been broken down by ICE? It just doesn't add up. I'm taking my business over to Julio's, they're getting raided all the time. Just last week, ICE hit 'em right when I was getting my enchiladas. That's how you know it's good."

#How three terrorist groups formed the Israeli Defence Forces | The Big Picture
Before the formation of the Israel Defense Forces in #1948, there were three underground Zionist militias - The Haganah, the Irgun and the Lehi.
They differed in tactics and beliefs, and at times fought with each other - but together they terrorised Palestinian villages and executed attacks and bombings against the British to force them to give up control of the land.
They blew up hotels in #Jerusalem, embassies in #Europe and assassinated a #UN mediator.
After #Israel was officiated as a #state - the three militias would create the #IDF - and their leaders would go on to form Israelโs government, become politicians, ambassadors and Prime Ministers.

Amazing thread so far
I'm not disappointed
Israelis are literally just strafing crowds of starving people with machine guns and laughing about it and people are still like "it's antisemitic to point that out!"
Like, at this point the idea that Zionism is the same thing as Jewishness is *the most antisemitic idea in human history.*
@pluralistic in Makers you perfectly predicted the whole Ozempic weight loss craze as Fatkins.
Did you know what was coming before the rest of us knew, did you get lucky?
It seems obvious in hindsight: gastric bypass was the hotness before, so I guess it was predictable.
But you absolutely nailed it. Thanks for another great book!

@Blueteamsherpa It's part of the way there. What I really want is Markdown but with all of Word's advanced features.
Word doesn't show me control codes for things like italics, bold, tables, URLs.
I tend to use Obsidian or VS Code for first drafts in pure Markdown and then copy it over to Word to finalize it with stuff like headers, footers, page numbers, table of contents, etc.
I used to use OneNote just for its ability to organize ideas but its so aggressive with the genAI crap that I'm looking for alternatives.
Also, I feel like OneNote hasn't had any meaningful updates or added features in years. It's still stuck in 2010.

Triple-bad time for homeowners, in the SW still recovering from two bulls-eye hurricanes. Insurance is high, labor is scarce, and as you say @Katherine Bond - a lot of Canadians own homes &/or vacation homes in SW FL. And as they sell, few buyers are liking the scene, so down go values, and services.
I was recently at two state parks in FL, usually full to the gills, but neither big park seemed to have any day tourists, Empty roads & paths! But packed with US'ians in huge motor homes. From Minnesota, GA, TX ... Meanwhile, homeowners who think it's time to sell and leave 'Paradise' are not finding buyers.

yea so the thing about iran's underground nuke facilities, is that if they were really "totally obliterated" as in, the blast wave went all the way down to penetrate the actual structure, there would probably be video of the blast wave coming out of the entrances. they shot the bombs down the ventilation shafts so you'd expect it to blow the entrances out.
i figure if such video existed they would have shown it. instead we just see holes punched in the ground near the vent shafts.
still not convinced. but eh whatever it was a good show and everyone backed down. better than a ground assault
