US introduces its own security council resolution calling for a temporary ceasefire in Gaza as soon as practicable and urging against an operation in Rafah.

US will still veto an upcoming Algeria resolution for an immediate humanitarian ceasefire.

Gonna be a boring ass day

I think Skypeia was better than Alabasta personally. Although Alabasta let each crew member shine more in battle. But the setting of Skypeia was really cool.

You guys realize that it would be a Black/White Remake, not Black 2/White 2

yes, and

American Idiot

Black/Whites pixel art was so on point that a remake by current game freak will inevitably be a direct downgrade. Like outright not worth buying over the original.

Croc also had the issue of his weakness being the most plentiful thing in the ocean. He put his base in a country he could keep completely dry and he was looking for a weapon of mass destruction so that his devil fruit wouldnt be his limiter.

Remember the Japanese episode with the giant robots? It was the best episode

Is this the one where Dexter pilots an Abraham Lincoln mech to fight Mandark?

Could also be bad data. Its a subset of 1500 UK workers that identify as Gen Z and is willing to answer an Indeed survey. Besides self selection bias, how was the poll served and therefore how many people mindlessly clicked the last circle on every question?

This is just like all those articles about Millennials killing XYZ. This isnt Gen Z deciding to be rude to employers in a vacuum to get a kick out of it, this is a response by the wide public to corporate hiring practices that dont treat applicants like human beings.

I got hired for my job in November, and I STILL get emails from random companies finally letting me know that I was rejected. Most recent one I got was for an application I filled out last May. And even those are just the subset of companies that have a process for letting you know you were rejected. The majority just ghost you.

Looks like SilvosForever has me blocked

Back on topic I feel the squad had largely worn out their welcome. I'm ok with AOC but that's about it. Bowman, Bush, Tlaib and maybe even Omar need to be replaced with better liberal Democrats.

Are you a member of AIPAC

Its not that Dems are responsible for making the right better people, its that if they dont take action to stop a fascist from reaching office then its game over, so they need to do something by necessity, or theyre just kicking rocks until they lose.

Is this really an issue? Yes, a meh present is much better than an infinitely worse future.

I think where they see the issue is the long term. As in they dont think Biden / other moderate candidate is or will take steps to actually reduce fascism in the United States. And if fascism is on the ballot every 4 years and democracy ends if fascism wins the election, there must be a concrete and aggressive plan to remove fascism from the ballot permanently.

Dems need to communicate that plan. And they also cant afford to defer to things like parliamentarians telling them no since they know the fascists if elected wont give that same deference to the system.

Im just being realistic about the options we have for this election.

Im not responding to your opinion about voting, which I dont disagree with. Im responding to your downplaying of the Gaza genocide and incorrect US history.

Every single president has funded israel since its fucking existence. Why is this the election when people are suddenly unable to vote for a president funding Israel?

Biden is maintaining the (unfortunate) statue quo that every president has before him. Have you never voted for president before?

Not justifying voting against Biden, but you have to see how obviously dishonest this framing is, as if the status quo hasnt changed in some way the past 4 months.

Youre conflating being an ally of Israel with fully enabling Netanyahus atrocities. Ronald Reagan was able to be an ally to Israel while speaking plainly about the wrongness of its actions and convincing them to halt their violence in Beirut. Youre acting like its unthinkable a US president would refuse to do anything but be a mouthpiece for Israels whims, which is not historical.

Ford as high as #27 lmfao

Like it's clearly just a performative vote to show support for Israel, and it's mostly bullshit.

Its strategic rather than performative though. The point was to put Hamas sexual abuse in headlines and build support for the invasion. If she voted yes it would be reported as a unanimous resolution.

I think theres a fair argument against her decision to vote present, but then like theres a much fairer argument that the Democratic Party shouldnt be so willing about funneling billions of dollars into creating a humanitarian crisis in the Middle East and working with Republicans to accomplish it.

The college president antisemitism debacle isnt apples-to-apples because they couldve easily answered that question affirmatively and pushed back against any subsequent questions painting Palestinian protests as antisemitism. A House resolution is yes/no/present.

The census counts children and non-citizens, which would make up a portion of that.

Fair enough, but that number also doesnt include Muslim non-Arab americans, and either way I think the point is made as to why this protest makes sense for Tlaib and those invested in saving Gazans.

In addition, this assumes that Biden got 100% of the vote from that group, which I assure you he did not.

No it doesnt, I never said that.

Pitbuller_26 posted...

It's not a whatsboutism, Trump has quite literally said on national television that he would reinstate another Muslim ban and it would be even more harsh. He has a SCOTUS that will allow it to happen. That Muslim ban can easily shift into target anybody Arab regardless of religious belief.

That's why a lot of people are scratching their heads at why a sizeable chunk of the Arab community are trying to hurt themselves here.

Its definitionally whataboutism. Biden was asked about critiques on his Gaza policy and he said why are you criticizing my Gaza policy when a Donald Trump presidency will be terrible for Arabs in this additional way? The content of the deflection doesnt need to be incorrect for it to be whataboutism. The deflection to not answer the original question is the whatabouting.

That aside, of course those voters dont think a Trump presidency will improve things. Theyre trying to leverage their demographics voting power to convince Biden to stop an active genocide. Its basically a negotiation strategy. Why dont they just shut up and accept not having a US Muslim ban as enough? Because also not having an active genocide would be better, and they think that shouldnt be too much to ask.

The problem is that Whitmer won her reelection while losing a significant majority of Arab voters in Michigan. Most voted for the Republican candidate.

If the same happens with Biden, the Arab community in Michigan will have proven there's no point in trying to court them. Tlaib is not helping with that.

As opposed to the status quo which is Biden himself whatabouting Trump when asked, saying the former President wants to put a ban on Arabs coming into the country. Well make sure he we understand who cares about the Arab population, number one.

Like what soft power do you think Arab American voters hold right now that theyll lose if they ask for a policy change in Gaza?

Doom_Art posted...

this is not true

Arab Americans in Michigan: 211,405

Am I missing something here?

I've said it once I'll say it again.

If you are using the genocide of Palestinians to justify not voting for Biden, you are enabling the genocide and outlawing of the LGBT people.

You cannot be against genocide against Palestinians but be okay with the domestic genocide of LGBT people.

Problem is CEmen think just talking about Bidens responsibility in it is electoral sabotage even if youre still going to strategically vote Biden.

she is asking people to vote uncommitted in the Michigan primary to try to show Biden there is a significant community in Michigan deeply invested in him stopping the Gaza genocide.

This is an electoral issue many have already been pointing to since theres more Arab & Muslim voters in Michigan than the margin Biden won by in 2020. The discontent there is something its good for Democrats to have visibility on and reckon with the electoral consequences of Bidens Gaza policy and inaction.

Very misleading how OP framed this.

TC, shoulda posted as a poll, 10kHz, 11kHz, up to 19kHz

My analysis after years of shitposting is that topic polls actually lower overall engagement.

When I saw I couldnt do real neutral because I miscalculated my points I just didnt finish the game and looked up the last fights on YouTube. So dumb

Btw I haven't even played SMT IV but I'm going to automatically assume OP is wrong because he's posting about politics on gamefaqs. Strange Journey was a 9/10 though so maybe I'll play it

SMT IV treats Neutral as the worst and best endings but does so very awkwardly. To get True Neutral you have to accumulate more law/chaos points and then at the deciding stage of the game you must try to choose the opposite alignment of what you accumulated. And if you got too many of one or the other youre locked out. Theres a bad neutral ending you can always pick also

Just click the play button and a guy will start speaking out the frequency that's playing. I start becoming aware of it as it moves into 17k and can clearly hear it at 15k. Don't put your audio too loud because the frequency is unpleasant to hear.

Apparently you lose access to these highest frequencies as you age, but I can't imagine it's very important in practice.

Joker / Akechi teaming up as the only ones aware is really cool, and Maruki is much more interesting and engaging as a final antagonist

I don't think it is, at least I have not seen any information regarding one.

If they weren't planning on it at first, I'm sure they're reconsidering it after the game printed money and swept awards.

I've said it before, but this upcoming Presidential race really shouldn't be that complicated for the Democrats (even with Biden as the candidate), take the topic of abortion and hang it on Trump's neck like an anchor.

Not to mention Bidens biggest perceived issue, his age, is the one thing Trump absolutely refuses to criticize him about.

How good will this video generation be in 1, 2, 5 years?

For people who dont know, most Channel Awesome (business of Doug Walker aka Nostalgia Critic that packaged several YouTubers together under one loose brand of content reviewing) nominal members withdrew from the website when people published that Change the Channel google doc about the incompetence/unprofessionalness of the business and its owners. As a joke Guru Larry wanted to be the last remaining person on the website.

Watched the One Piece live action trailer and damn it actually looks good
