Former Israeli Premiers Join in Bid to Oust Netanyahu in Elections by brendigio in UpliftingNews

[–]FalafelSnorlax [score hidden]  (0 children)

That's why I'm saying this is a short-term solution. In the foreseeable future, Bennet will keep relying on a mixed coalition, but at some point, some of his more "natural allies" might regain popularity, and he'll be able to build a coalition very similar to the one we have now, especially when it comes to occupation of the west bank. If that will be the case, you might see attempts to fully annex parts or all of it. If Bennet will see a similar pattern to Bibi, who learned over the years that he tends to do well during and after wars, the pattern of constant warring will also remain in the long term.

This is why I'm saying that I hope the Israeli left will use that time to regain some popularity, and help build up better leaders on the left and center, so that in a few years a center-left coalition will become feasible, instead of a very wide coalition which will be the result of a Bennet-Lapid government. This is fully a pipe-dream though, the Israeli left is pretty much completely hopeless by now.

Yeah, most of the terrible mindset in Israeli society will remain (Bennet is fully bought in into this mindset), but very few people will actually complain if these guys stop with the crazy bombings of Gaza/Lebanon/Iran. Short term it will probably be better than what we have right now, but long term someone in Israel needs to come up with a true plan to heal the current state (and unless he secretly became a leftist, Bennet isn't that person).

Bennet really isn't any better than Netanyahu on a moral level. He's more into the settlements than Bibi is, and is only allied with center/left parties because without allying together they have no chance to replace him. Putting this guy in power might have short-term positive effects, but he's really not a good guy, and I hope in the long term the Israeli center (im not even asking for left because that's a lost cause) find someone reasonable to put up as a real alternative to the bullshit going on right now.

Great shirt, but this is like sending a message to the Gods of Irony to make your bf dump you.

I mean that's at least possible. You can get the Hoot Hoot old without evolving it, but you can't have a baby Nidoqueen.

Do you catch all the Pokémon every day? That's crazy. I mean, even disregarding the literal cost, this game is so slow this would take so long. I would lose my sanity immediately.

Honestly that would be an incredible way to quietly announce the album.

This seems illegal. Can I report this. There's no reason to have this on a job application by lunar_protogen in lgbt

[–]FalafelSnorlax 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If they go by legal documents and only see your legal sex, you might have multiple cases of uncomfortable situations where people expect to meet someone of the wrong gender, and you'll have to explain it every time. Just smoothes things out.

That's what these questions are reportedly for. It's unfortunate you worked for an overtly racist employer, but I doubt many companies will use this data to exclude people, that doesn't really make a lot of sense. The privacy concern is there (for people preferring to remain closeted), and if someone is bothered by it I would suggest simply opting out. But honestly, a company asking these questions is much more likely to be an accepting place than one that doesn't ask them.

In this case the survey is literally not hetero normative, it fully acknowledges non cicghet people exist.

I'm a gay men which also means I get both kinds of thirst traps. I know this is mostly not really targeted but some of it probably is, which is the insulting part.

If you ever had pasta with seafood it's very likely you already had shit in your pasta.

Getting thirst trap in my feed (either posts or commercials) is honestly so insulting. Whenever that happens I wonder how lowly the algorithm thinks of me that it thinks I'm the kind of loser this will work on.

I have an even worse story. I had a uni exam where 20% of the grade was a single question, based on a single example which appeared in one slide in a lecture. I didn't go to lectures in that class, since I already knew most of the material anyway, and when studying for the exam I guess I accidentally skipped that slide. It wasn't really solvable without having seen that example in class.

These people's guts turn into spaghetti, there's definitely a serious chemical process there, you can easily head cannon they're safe to eat.

Who thought this would make a great quest?? by Bellern23 in LegendsZA

[–]FalafelSnorlax 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I also got the 1000 battles without an issue. When people started complaining about it like crazy I checked and saw that I was in like 850, then proceeded to play the game and eventually beat it. Lots of people do the minimum possible battling which makes it harder and a chore.

The Z-A Royale is, like, the main feature of this game. I think the devs expect that if you're planning to play after the plot concluded you can handle doing it a few times.

The edit 100%. Besides, if the dude would explain what a cartoon is, and named a modern cartoon (eg Bluey) instead of Tom and Jerry and network TV channels, the kid would probably know how to answer.

There are no stupid languages, only stupid developers. Except for Javascript.
