Our countrymen died fighting side by side with your military in your misguided wars in Iraq and Afghanistan.

I really wish NATO nations would have criticized those wars, instead of knowingly sending their troops to die in wars based on lies.

Europe has been a vassal state of the US for years. It was clear that America has been spiraling towards fascism, and European leadership did not admit it, even if they recognized it. Europe should have developed their militarizes and not relied on the US military for decades for their protection.

What the US is doing is wrong, and Europe should have seen this was possible, and took actions to prevent it from being possible. Instead of focusing all of your anger towards Americans, reserve some anger for the leadership that has failed you, and allowed this to happen.

Denmark, any NATO members, whoever wants to… Might win a Nobel Peace prize

I’ve met too many people that are so comfortable with open prejudice against Romas.

The doctor looks very thin and frail. Everyone in Gaza should be receiving free boxes of that peanut butter malnutrition paste.

Maybe Europe needs to consider bombing Trump

I googled if the Brand’s shoes ran true to size and hoped for the best. It worked out.

But I do try to buy in person or have the option to return in person to avoid the situation you are in, when possible, but sometimes that is not an option.

Anything to help people that want to have children is good.

How is Chile the only country in the Americas in the Visa Waiver Program? (Minus French Guiana)

Bicycle to work and gardening regularly has helped but I still feel the aging, and take longer to recover from injuries.

I’m also on zepbound and lost almost 100lbs which makes exercise and everything else easier than when I was fat.

Woah, there buddy! Let’s not overdo it

I’m outside of the house at the moment.

I’m hoping you are keeping good habits at home, like brushing your teeth and taking out the trash.

So when is the food coming into Gaza?

fire rockets from schools and hospitals

I don’t think there are any schools left in Palestine. There’s not a lot of hospitals left and the doctors say there’s no rockets being fired there.

you learn something new sometimes

I think I went on a rabbit hole reading about this island online awhile back. IIRC they speak creole Portuguese, while EG speaks Spanish, and have been punished by the government for wanting independence for years. This Internet shutdown is just a drastic and recent punishment.

It does seem like a nice life there. But very different than what we in the west are accustomed to. They lack many basic necessities, there’s shortages of everything that’s imported.

It would be important to not be a burden to the community. Starlink isn’t available there, so I’m not sure of another way to work remotely from there. And unless you have a skill they would benefit from, you might be a strain on a community already stretching it’s resources. But I do see the appeal of an island like annobón.

The three leftist commentators that I watched over the past day were Hasan Piker, Krystal Ball (with her conservative cohost Saager), and Kyle Kulinski. All of them humanized Kirk, and reminded the audience he has children, and acknowledged that they are in the same business as Kirk, while they are on the other side, and have very strong disagreements with his positions.

I don’t dislike any of their reactions, but I was frustrated with Kyle today because he spent a long time discussing current conspiracy theories, and then discussed inflammatory right wing reactions. There’s not complete information available yet because the suspect hasn’t been caught, and it just happened. It felt like he was grasping at conspiracy theories, giving them too much credit without the evidence to back them up. And I didn’t enjoyed most of the reactions on social media, including lemmy, yesterday, so I was pretty exhausted to hear him go over the worst of the right winged reactions.

By “given recent events” do you mean which leftist commentator did I not like their reaction to Kirk’s killing?

This is the policy of “America first”
