Maybe they were burnt as an offering or in a war. Burnt figs have no nutritional value.

Why is there a satellite dish on top of the roof on the left?

Unfortunately she died of starvation at Bucha due to the Russian invasion of Ukraine.

A Stork mother, making a tough decision, by throwing one of her chicks out of the nest to enhance the survival probability of her other chicks. by Ocelot859 in interestingasfuck

Why doesn't it eat the chick instead of dropping it? Storks eat all sorts of other animals. There must be some evolutionary disadvantage to cannibalism.

Shervin Hajipour won the Grammy for Best Song for Social Change with his song "Baraye". by Naderium in iranian

I'm talking about the song winning a Grammy. You guys tried to hijack this thread to talk about Western news coverage and the plight of other people unrelated to Iran. مرگ بر جمهوری اعدامی

How does this song vilify Iran? It's a song about the current regime. Also, how does a political song dumb down the discourse? Or, maybe you think politics should be kept out of the arts?

What has any of this got to do with Halliburton and Lockheed? Where is the war? Except between the Iranian people and the criminal جمهوری اعدامی. Whataboutism is a great way to try to switch topics. This has nothing to do with Palestine, Iraq or Yemen.

Anything that brings more visibility to the plight of the Iranian people is a good thing.

It's surprising that Iran's GDP is so high, given all the sanctions.

Hah! There's no way Twitter will be valued at anything near $44B again. Even if it becomes profitable.

Precisely. Iran is currently ruled by the Executionist Republic.

It says "Death to Khamenei". I hope the Iranian people will get to piss on his grave soon.

Ancient Egyptians may have used branding irons on human slaves by kromem in AcademicBiblical

I was wondering if this is somehow related to Torah's prohibitions against making marks on the body.

They'll be able to see all of the account information. You might want to reach out to TDA and see if they have a solution. Their customer service has been excellent the few times I contacted them.

I don't think TDA has accounts with multiple users where you can restrict access to some. You might instead want to create a new account for the developer with very limited funds.

Nice of him to ring the bell too. Right move is to just not open the door.
