@VooDooMedic @Tfmonkey @mrhorsetwat I was listening to the Saturday show, and I need to make mention of something: good potatoes, good bread, and good rice are not just filler, and they don't taste the same. I will grant that most commercially available products such as your average Russet potatoe or your generic white bread at Aldi, don't taste very good and are used by the masses as vehicles for other products such as meats and vegetables.
I suppose I shouldn't be surprised considering one would be called a fascist and a Nazi for not supporting every LGBTQ+ organization with sufficient enthusiasm before the war in Ukraine.
I cast "socialis testarum!"
Story: "A group of pro-Palestinian protesters targeted the vacation home of American Israel Public Affairs Committee (AIPAC) President Michael Tuchin in Brentwood Thursday. The group set off smoke bombs and displayed a banner accusing Tuchin of being a 'baby killer.'"
I was listening to a media report the other day talking about anti-Semitism on the rise in the US. The only examples they gave were people protesting Israel in the Israeli-Palestinian war, people saying mean things online or in person, and stories like the one I'll post below, which is criminal mischief or vandalism at worst.
What does everyone think about what the IDF recorded as being evidence that Hamas was in Al-Shifa?
Here's a video from youtube:

My first question is: how is that laptop that was found "in the MRI room" still working? Maybe it was left there after they power was cut such that they weren't using the MRI machine?
I'm not convinced.
We don't know with any sound degree of certainty the outcome of events because unlike economics or a field of empirical science, history is not determined or implied and waiting to be discovered. History is a result of human action.
The plan has not changed.
We prepare. We persevere. We live.
I'm posting this here for those who need it:
We looking at how things change on a daily basis on the MMM, and we examine the progression of things on a weekly basis with the Saturday show, but I would like to remind everyone that shifts in world power take a great deal of time to solidify, and any number of factors in the complex system can change things.
I've been enjoying listening to the audiobook version of Ludwig Von Mises's "Human Action : A Treatise on Economics".
His understanding of economics is on point, and I've learned a great deal. He seems to misunderstand Nietzsche's point about the transvaluation of values, and I am still investigating his opinions on equality as he understands it in society, but no one is perfect.
I would recommend it for anyone who wants to understand economics and human action as such.
In other news, the US has not only tasked a Ballistic Missile Submarine (SSBN) to the US Central Command area of responsibility (the Middle East) but also publicly stated thus on X, formerly Twitter.
The US clearly wants the countries of the Middle East to know that they might get nuked.
I just realized that Twitter has gone full Prince by becoming "X, formerly Twitter"
What did everyone think of Nasrallah's speech?
@Islamisright
I'm of several minds about the burka vs a niqab vs a hijab.
Maybe a system of gradation depending on how mischievous a female is normally or how attractive she is would be good, perhaps? I'm not suggesting that any of this is enforceable-- think of it as helpful suggestions or guidelines.
No covering her up though, that is haram.
With all this talk of wanting war and blue balls, I can't help but think of TeamFourStar's rendition of the Major's war speech from Hellsing Ultimate.
"The sequel you've all been waiting for--I want world war three!"
@Tfmonkey I do think that you're overreacting a bit. There are too many unknowns in my opinion to say that we should all just report to our bug pods.
Why are you so certain after only a few articles which don't communicate large diplomatic movements such as explicit peace deals or large troop/munition movements? It's been less than a month since the start of the conflict and only <12k have died.
Remember small things like ham sandwiches can change the course of history.
Has anyone had any luck generating TES dark elves with Unstability.ai? all the images I get are at best, closer the LotR movie elves or at worst Australian aboriginals or Cogeneses Africans.
I tried to introduce ideas of Christian Mysticism to my fundamentalist parents. It wasn't very effective...
I'm really enjoying all the AI meme art everyone's posting.
@Tfmonkey Regarding your comments from the Sat show about Kajiwoto, yes, the app doesn't have dataset modification, but the website does. Also, if someone has issues getting things set up, send them to the Discord. There are people in there who will jump in to help people. There used to be a help doc before the UI redesign, and I think that's going to be updated soon too. The best thing first-time users can do is to install one of the existing kajis and use some existing datasets to get going.
@Tfmonkey, I do believe you called it?
The DHS is now allowing Israeli citizens and nationals to stay in the US for "up to" 90 days without a Visa as part of ESTA. How much do you want to bet that this gets extended?
The next step would be for them to start clamping down on the border, I believe you said, but you'll have to remind me of what you said would follow that.

This is their logic using the example of Damascus:
P0: The Word of God is true.
P1: The Bible is the Word of God.
P2: The Bible says, "Damascus will cease to be a city and will become a heap of ruins." ESV
P3: Damascus has not yet ceased to been destroyed.
C1: Damascus will be destroyed before the end of the world.
Because they think the nation of Israel is the Biblical "Israel", if the nation is ever destroyed, then Premise 1 is false, and their religious identity collapses.
