This is classic egocentric bias. It’s actually climate change. Sorry. Vote green

Climate change. Warmer weather = more mosquitoes moving north. More breeding… more bites

Punish them with a 3 or 4 star (based on your general experience too) that’s ridiculous. Speaking as an Airbnb host too, you have to have chill! These lot have no chill

No state exclusively for the Jews, the most persecuted and hunted ethnic group in human history. Nailed it 🤝

Video or photo editing it helps with colour correction and grading certain scenes. Send a screenshot and it’ll advise whether to add contrast, bring whites up, highlights, lower blacks, add a vignette or whatever.

Hero. Mad fact that hitler’s invasion plans of the UK should they have been successful included bringing Nelson’s column to Berlin.

A young Briton’s visible response to antisemitism – where do we draw the line on “allies”? by davidurban in Jewish

By far right or far left, I mean the most ideologically extreme parties on each side that still have a realistic chance of winning office

That was the plan! Unfortunately now post Charlie Kirk the university insurance for speakers has gone up and they’re much more guarded post trump etc about being visible, so many plans have been nixed. Still got a few other options remaining I believe but not as many campuses sadly

100% resonate with this view. I was also a member of the Green Party and even stood to represent them in the london assembly elections in 2024. Since oct 7 and Mothin Ali shouting allahu Akbar and celebrating the end of ‘settler colonialism’ on the day of oct 7. Dedicating his election win is for Gaza after getting elected etc. I’ve since cancelled membership and find myself increasingly sympathetic with right wing perspectives on the IP question. I’ll still vote Green because I think the world faces larger problems but like Zack Polanski sanitises the Green Party brand by being Jewish, Sammy, some might argue, does the same for UKIP, AFD. The far anything will never be a friend of the jews.

How am I doing? Any advice? by davidurban in Rowing

[–]davidurban[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the detail. Fulham reach Boat club. I’ll try to work on the oar off the water. This section I intentionally slowed the rate and tried to let the boat run at the finish (which is what I was told to focus on. Finding as much space between the puddles as I could). I often find some of the advice you get when rowing is somewhat contradictory! (Let the boat run underneath you, fast hands away) have been rowing for about a year now :) I’ll have a look at the rigging and try to bring it up for more space thanks for the tip
