Huh so they’re going to put it back just to drop it again when they controlled demo the whole village a day later? Very sloppy with your ethnic cleansing IDF, do better.

I’d concur—OP might find that the afternoon medication might actually help with settling down and sleeping.

Also if new to the medication, there just might be some acclimation—I had a lot of trouble back in the day when I was starting meds.

Everyone has different reactions/needs from meds, but I’d also recommend looking at extended release versions, I’ve found them a lot less intense and disruptive than when I had regular adderall.

Can confirm—we got a notification from municipal public works about how they were scaling back fluoride in water due to shortages from the war.

What the fuck is a DoorDash grandma? Actually forget it, I don’t want to know…

Yeah I tend to agree, they have a lot of upside in remaining the rational and responsible party in all this chaos, worth some level of risk to maintain it.

Makes you wonder… has anyone heard of video conferencing?

Yeah was gonna say, he’s been a funny guy.

Also when we say “libs” here, we’re talking reform types as opposed to hardliners/pro-nuke folks? Because I’m having trouble imagining them being into brunch and identity politics…

I presume Pakistan is pulling out all stops in terms of security, but man, those guys have gotta be worried mossad’s gonna try and pull some shit. How can you meet with these fuckers when they’ve killed your previous negotiators and acted with such duplicity. Hopefully they refuse to have Witkoff or Jared in the room.

Yeah I think you nailed it; the sadness is almost more about how they could have just not chosen this awful and stupid route in an alternate universe, and that’s sad, that you chose this and all the deaths that unfold because of this choice. But like you say, there are way more legitimate people to be empathizing with, like the endless victims of this behavior for one.

No real disagreement with you. For me the slight sadness is more just people that young have no real idea about anything. It doesn’t excuse any actions he takes that are part of something awful, but it is slightly more sad than if someone like Smotrich or Ben Gvir were killed.

When I think back to myself as a 21 year old I had all kinds of conflicting ideas and convictions, most of which got changed or adjusted as I experienced and learned more, but I’d be embarrassed to own some of the “opinions” I had at the time, in particular things I thought were de facto true politically that were simply societal brainwashing that I didn’t have the knowledge to shed yet.

Anyway, not really trying to rehab this particular “guy” (rimshot) just making a case for the possibility of feeling some sadness for these things.
