Re: April 8, 2024 Total Solar Eclipse
It was cloudy until about the time when the partial started, by the time it was in totality it was a clear sky. It was quite a sight to see. The totality didn't last for long, but it was long enough to appreciate it. It got cold, dark, and quiet. The birds just shut up, which they rarely seem to do ...

Re: Terrorist state of Russia emboldened by Western inaction
Do you think that the Hamas terrorists have been embolden by the recent acts of the democratic party? In that the Democrats continue to materially support Israel's war effort? No. In that some have been critical of Israel's continued killing of innocent civilians? No. They don't actually give a fuc...

Terrorist state of Russia emboldened by Western inaction
The dithering of Western nations continues to have significant consequences. Ukraine cannot hold out forever, and without significant support from those of us in the West, things continue to get more dire. Russia *WILL* target a NATO nation given the opportunity. Ukraine is not their only target. Fa...

Not really surprising considering how many, from Donald on down have consistently called them political prisoners, hostages, etc.

Re: Hamas fires 7000 rockets at Israel, starting major war
Netanyahu doesn't want the hostages released. It's used as a reason for his continued actions in Palestine. So he can remove them from the land, and absorb Gaza into Israel. The war also keeps him in power. This is what happens when you have authoritarians in power, countless people suffer. The best...

The "Where's Daddy?" thing has been floating around several sites, and I'm led to believe it's a thing. It doesn't seem to matter to the AI if the intended target is home or not, so it will kill the target family instead, women, or children, and innocent males (they generally get left out ...

Re: WTF is wrong with the world
The killing to the aid workers has lead to another aid group ceasing operations. Netanyahu seems determined that the Palestinians should suffer, that civilians should be collectively punished. Starvation is a horrible way to kill innocent people.

Re: WTF is wrong with the world
The killing of the WC workers was not an accident.
IDF hit 3 vehicles, that were not near one another.
One vehicle could certainly be an accident. 3 of them, with 3 different missiles, is not.
The Israeli government is doing a horrible, horrible job of representing Israelis.

Is there that much of a lack of curiosity, that if a subject comes up there is no desire to know more about it?

Just because you didn't see it, doesn't mean it didn't happen.
Donald's campaign issued a statement.
Fox News covered it
Twitter was ablaze with indignation about it
The general reaction wasn't outrage to the outrage, it was eye-rolling

Dolphins are smart, but I don't know if they could have done anything with the cargo ship, even with huge schools of them. And why would they cooperate? They'd probably be "Screw you, humans".
What? Not that kind of dolphin? Why would they name it the same thing, then? That's just stupid.

I don't think Biden has done a good job of managing the situation. He's letting Netanyahu control the policy
I get that the armaments that the US is sending are part of an agreement, but surely Biden can do something different.
