It's been a long time trying to stay strong in silence …
Winter is coming, and the tents can't stop the wind or rain.
A photo might show part of it, but the real feeling can't be described.
Every blanket, every warm piece of clothing, every bit of support can save us from the cold.
Help me protect my family this winter - let us hold on to warmth and dignity.
Please share, donate, and let Gaza's voice be heard.

Fascinating graph shows the estimated total mass of all the mammals living on Earth.
In 1850, it was evenly divided between wildlife and humans + domesticated animals. Today, humans and their livestock account for about 95% of the total.

📢 Urgent Humanitarian Appeal 📢
To all kind-hearted people,
I am reaching out with a heavy heart to ask for your help for my son Nabeel, who is suffering from severe skin diseases caused by the harsh living conditions in the tents and polluted environment where we currently live.
Nabeel’s condition is getting worse day by day, and our difficult living situation makes it impossible for us to afford the medical treatment and tests he urgently needs.

• Aggiunta la “Modalità Creativa”, con isole sogno di Sonia, con possibilità di giocare con altri amici e far baldoria
• Resetti che è stato assegnato allo sgombero. Forse meno stressante per chi rinnova sempre la propria isola

An SNP win in Scotland and a Plaid Cymru win in Wales will be an outcome the UK Government cannot ignore, and will demonstrate an alternative to Nigel Farage, leaders John Swinney and Rhun ap Iorwerth have said.
Today, First Minister and SNP Leader John Swinney and Leader of Plaid Cymru Rhun ap Iorwerth held a "wide-ranging meeting which included discussion of a progressive alternative to the Westminster status quo, the need for Westminster to listen to the voices of Scotland and Wales."

October 30, 2017 – Before the election in 2016, a college professor contacted Donald Trump aid George Papadopoulos to tell him the Russians had harmful information on Hillary Clinton.
Papadopoulos eventually pled guilty to lying when FBI investigators asked him about the conversation in October of 2017.

“Anyone notice how quickly the "No Kings" protest movement brought back all the lies and conspiracy theories of nonviolence that we fully laid to rest in 2020?”
“We already learned that nonviolence doesn’t work in 2020. The learning got erased. We already learned it in 2014. Erased again. We learned it in 2009. Then lost it. Learned it in 2003. Erased. Learned it in 1991. Gone. Learned it in 1968. Erased. Learned it in 1939. See the pattern?”

//TRANSCRIPT OF ATTACHED VOICE CLIP//
Has your past self ever showed up and ruined your promotion? Did a future version of you steal your spouse? Are you tired of alternate timeline versions of yourself claiming they own your quarters? Then you need...
TEMPORAL INSURANCE ASSOCIATES! The only time-travel insurance provider licensed to operate across all known timelines, alternate realities and quantum paralell dimensions!
Listen. We get it. You're just trying to live your life, do your duty, maybe even get promoted to LtCmdr someday and then BAM. You run into yourself from three years in the future who warns you to not go on that away mission. Now you've got a temporal paradox on your hands, Starfleet Temporal Investigations breathing down your neck, and you're pretty sure you just caused the Eugenics wars to happen 15 years ealier. Who is gonna pay for that? Not Starfleet, that's for sure. They barely even hand out replicator rations.
That's where Temporal Insurance Associates comes in. We've been protecting Federation citizens from chronological mishaps since stardate... well, it depends which timeline you're asking about, but trust us, we've been around. Or will be around. Or are currently around in multiple time periods simultaneously. The point? Well, we often don't have one but we do know time travel and that apparently is quite profitable to you huumaaaans...
Our comprehensive coverage protects you from all manner of temporal incidents. Accidentally created an alternate timeline where the Borg assimilated Earth in the 21st century? We've got you covered. Ran into your great-great-grandmother and accidentally prevented your own birth? Our patented Grandfather Paradox Protection Plan will sort that right out. Got trapped in a time loop and lived the same day forty-seven times? We'll compensate you for all those repeated shifts. That's right, we pay for duplicate work. Because if you lived it, you should get paid for it, even if it technically didn't happen in the prime timeline. Cope you whiny bitches… Alternate timeline property disputes? Covered. Injuries sustained from your evil mirror universe counterpart? Covered. Lost income due to being stuck in the past for three months before Starfleet could retrieve you? Covered.
Our claims process is simple. Just contact us at any point in the timeline, past, present, or future. Our agents exist in a state of temporal flux and can meet with you whenever is convenient, which is always now, relatively speaking. We'll dispatch a claims adjuster who will review your temporal incident, consult with our staff of Q-certified temporal mechanics, and have your claim processed before you even have it filed. Sometimes we pay out claims before the incident even happens. We're that good. Hehehe it’s scary.
And here's the best part! Our premiums are locked in at your current timeline rate. That means even if you accidentally cause the Federation to fall and get replaced by the Terran Empire, you're still paying the same monthly rate. Try getting that deal from those hacks at Chrono-Care. They'll drop you the second you create a bootstrap paradox and expect you to pick them up by yourself. So… don't let temporal mechanics ruin your career. Sign up for Temporal Insurance Associates today. Because in space, no one can hear you scream... about causality violations.
WARNING: Temporal Insurance Associates is not responsible for temporal incidents caused by intentional violations of the Temporal Prime Directive. Coverage does not extend to incidents involving Guardian of Forever usage without proper authorization, Q-related temporal shenanigans, or any situation involving tribbles and time travel because we learned our fucking lesson about that one.
Policies may be retroactively voided if your timeline ceases to exist. If you find yourself in a timeline where Temporal Insurance Associates never existed, that's not our problem, that's a you problem. We are not liable for any psychological trauma resulting from meeting alternate versions of yourself, discovering you're adopted from the future, or learning that your entire existence is a predestination paradox. Side effects of temporal insurance coverage may include deja vu, premature nostalgia, remembering things that haven't happened yet, and deja vu.
Do not file claims while actively traveling through time. Wait until you've stabilized in a single temporal reference frame. Temporal Insurance Associates cannot prevent temporal incidents, only compensate you after they occur. Or before they occur. Or during. Time is weird.
Not available in the Mirror Universe, the Heurgenfluergen Universe, The 'Oh God we made Lenin gay oh god what happened oh no' universe or any timeline where the Federation lost the Dominion War. Premium rates may increase if you accumulate more than three temporal violations in a single fiscal year. Repeated causality breaches may result in your policy being terminated across all timelines simultaneously. Q is not covered under any policy ever and we will know if you're lying about his involvement.
Temporal Insurance Associates... We've got you covered, yesterday, today, and tomorrow. Literally.
Underwritten by the Department of Temporal Investigations Approved Insurance Consortium. Remember: The past is history, the future is a mystery, but your premiums are due on the 15th of every month.

Vance agli studenti: portate avanti l'eredità di Charlie Kirk
Centinaia di studenti hanno sfidato la pioggia mercoledì pomeriggio per assistere all'evento al Padiglione dell'Università del Mississippi. La folla, radunata fin dalle prime ore del mattino, indossava cappelli MAGA e magliette con la scritta "Freedom" in omaggio all'attivista conservatore. Leslie Lachman, presidente del capitolo locale di Turning Point USA, ha raccontato a Fox News che l'energia sul campus era elettrica e che gli studenti hanno fatto la fila per ore sotto la pioggia. La scelta dell'università è stata vista come un onore, considerando che molti altri atenei hanno opposto resistenza al riconoscimento dei capitoli di Turning Point.
L'evento rappresenta l'unica tappa del tour nazionale in cui Erika Kirk è apparsa personalmente. La vedova ha spiegato di aver pregato a lungo prima di decidere di salire sul palco, data la forte carica emotiva della giornata. "Potevo sentire Charlie nel mio cuore dirmi: vai a riprenderti quel territorio", ha detto agli studenti presenti. Kirk ha descritto la presenza sul campus come una "rivendicazione spirituale del territorio" e ha ringraziato i diecimila studenti per il sostegno ricevuto. "Non ci ha lasciati a mani vuote. Ha costruito una macchina e tutti voi ne fate parte", ha aggiunto.
Vance ha ricevuto una forte ovazione quando è salito sul palco per rispondere alle domande degli studenti, seguendo il formato reso celebre da Charlie Kirk nei suoi eventi sui campus universitari. Durante uno degli scambi più accesi della serata, una studentessa ha posto domande sul matrimonio interculturale del vicepresidente con Usha, cresciuta in una famiglia induista. Vance ha spiegato che lui e sua moglie hanno deciso di crescere i figli come cristiani e che spera un giorno che lei diventi cattolica, pur rispettando il suo libero arbitrio. La stessa studentessa ha interrogato Vance sulle politiche restrittive sull'immigrazione. Il vicepresidente ha dichiarato che vorrebbe limitare severamente l'immigrazione legale finché i migranti già nel paese non si integreranno meglio, ricevendo applausi quando ha affermato che il suo compito è difendere gli interessi degli Stati Uniti, non quelli del mondo.
youtube.com/embed/YaXu-W--h0A?…
Il vicepresidente ha rivelato di aver ricevuto una telefonata da Charlie Kirk pochi mesi prima della sua morte. Kirk era preoccupato che la situazione in Medio Oriente portasse gli Stati Uniti in un conflitto militare prolungato. Vance ha attribuito a questo avvertimento il fatto che il presidente Trump abbia ordinato attacchi aerei contro le strutture nucleari iraniane senza coinvolgere il paese in un conflitto prolungato e senza perdere un solo soldato americano. "Charlie Kirk mi ha ricordato quanto questa questione sia importante per gli americani", ha detto Vance.
Durante l'evento, alcuni presenti hanno scandito "48" in riferimento a una possibile candidatura di Vance alla presidenza nel 2028, ma il vicepresidente ha invitato alla calma dicendo di non correre troppo. Vance ha concluso il suo intervento esortando gli studenti a impegnarsi attivamente in politica per salvare il paese. "Il più grande contributo che potete dare all'eredità di Charlie Kirk è coinvolgervi e salvare questa nazione", ha detto. "Non limitatevi a lamentarvi sui social media. Alzatevi e impegnatevi in una campagna".
L'assassinio di Kirk il 10 settembre scorso alla Utah Valley University ha suscitato indignazione nazionale sulla violenza politica. Da allora, Turning Point USA ha registrato oltre 50mila nuove richieste di adesione e apertura di capitoli nella settimana successiva alla sua morte. L'organizzazione, fondata da Kirk nel 2012, è diventata una forza importante nella politica universitaria americana, promuovendo ideali conservatori come libero mercato, governo limitato e libertà individuale.

So I got a Real Job to climb the corporate ladder, as one does. Long commute, pay was shit, but the Ladder was there. So I decided to buy a house near the job.
Two weeks from closing, they let me go. I closed anyway. Went back to consulting. I figure I made 3x more than my employee peers immediately.
Amazon will regret letting those managers go. The story ends with the first job begging me to come back in - which I did - as a consultant.
