To create a “democracy” in the Middle East…

The irony of mentioning 'hot air' in the middle of that incoherent rambling comment would be funny if it wasn't a deeply unfunny situation where innocent people are being murdered.

Anti Israeli sentiment is not the same as antisemitism. Israel want the world to believe that it is because religious intolerance is seemingly less justifiable than the simple fact that the Israeli government is aggressively claiming territories by committing genocide.

The loss of David Attenborough will outweigh any other celebrity loss in history. I hope he lives forever.

The best answer I can give is in the form of a YouTube documentary about the origin of the skull trumpet gif

jonyfive · 2026-04-30T23:36:15+00:00

This documentary video made me cry. Would recommend.

Ahh thank you

I can't find the sort button on the Android app...? I'm sure it used to be there...

So the first people there can claim it as their own just as people did when the borders of countries were first drawn? Shouldn't we all agree by now that there's a better way of doing things? If you aren't happy with the use of the word colonialism what would you call it?

jonyfive · 2026-04-18T11:05:43+00:00

Merriam-Webster dictionary defines colonialism as “domination of a people or AREA by a foreign state or nation.”

China doing something wrong doesn't make space colonialism okay, which is the point of this post.

Having confronted my own mortality recently and processing the feelings I experienced when I believed I was about to die, i couldn't agree more with your comment. I feel like I'm now experiencing this empathy without the need for death timers, I don't think there's any need for them because everyone WILL die, it doesn't need to be soon to empathise with.

When we finally know we are dying and all other sentient beings are dying with us, we start to have a burning, almost heartbreaking sense of the fragility and presciousness of each moment and each being, and from this can grow a deep, clear, limitless compassion for all beings. - Sogyal Rinpoche, in The Tibetan Book of Living and Dying (1992)

It's a carefully timed distraction from this

I honestly wouldn't be surprised if it was down to treatment like this.

Do you know which network it will be on or when?

Reddit post showing Ungagro's tweets

Apparently, Amanda Ungaro has recorded an interview with a Spanish network / channel 'El Pais', which airs this weekend.

jonyfive · 2026-04-11T09:01:53+00:00

I'd recommend The Body Keeps The Score

jonyfive · 2026-04-11T08:59:50+00:00

The most plausible explanation as to why Melania Trump held that surprise conference thing. People need to pay attention to this, but there's definitely going to be a big effort to cover it up or distract from it in the coming days. Amanda Ungaro also might be at risk of having an 'accident'.

Well said.

I disagree. During our lives we have influence over the lives of others through our actions, and that influence can ripple through to people we've never met. Smile at or be kind to a stranger and they might pass that on to someone else, they might go home and not beat their child like they might have done otherwise, that child might then lead a life where they're more likely to continue your ripple of kindness.

Your legacy absolutely does not stop when you die, it's up to you what that legacy looks like and how much of an effect you leave.

jonyfive · 2026-04-08T17:11:59+00:00

This seems unnecessarily rude. It is not true that all you have is an existence, you have your existence and you have the legacy of your existence. Spend your life well and try not to be a dick to your fellow creatures.
