victorz,

Desert is spreading. Not terrible, not great…

victorz,

So according to this logic, two negatives makes a positive? Israel wouldn’t deserve funding on its own, nor Ukraine, but together they should? How does that work, exactly? I’m lost.

(Also f**k Israel. ✊)

victorz,

I don’t judge, but cooking exclusively in a microwave… 🤢 Personally, no thanks. I’m guessing/hoping you didn’t cook steak and stuff like that in there.

Anyway, good luck with your cooking! 😁

victorz,

Please explain how I’m judging? What did I say specifically?

victorz,

I can consider something is gross without judging them for eating it… People make meat cakes out of mosquitos and fry them on hot stones and eat that as food. Crickets, beetles, stuff like that. That’s fucking nasty as shit to me 🤢🤮🤮, but I don’t judge, because perhaps it’s what’s available. Or because they like it. You never know what situation OP is in.

I hoped, for their sake if they are like me taste wise (didn’t think I’d have to be explicit about this), that they didn’t make microwave steak. Me personally? I don’t give a shit what OP eats. I’m not eating their dinners. But for their sake, I hoped.

I even tried to end it on a positive…? 🤷‍♂️

All good? 👍

victorz,

Against the regime, but support Israel. That feels like a zero-sum game…

victorz,

That sounds better indeed

She Was Kidnapped a Decade Ago With 275 Girls. Finally, She Escaped. (www.nytimes.com)

Kidnapped from their dormitory exactly 10 years ago, the 276 captives known as the Chibok Girls were catapulted to fame by Michelle Obama, by churches that took up the mostly Christian students’ cause and by campaigners using the slogan “Bring Back Our Girls.”...

victorz,

Then she noticed that some girls were jumping off the back of the truck, she said, some alone, others in pairs, holding hands. They ran and hid in the scrub as the truck trundled on. But before Ms. Dauda could jump, she said, one girl raised the alarm, shouting that others were “dropping and running.” Their abductors stopped, secured the truck and continued toward what, for Ms. Dauda, would prove a life-changing nine years in captivity. “If she hadn’t shouted that, we would have all escaped,” Ms. Dauda said in a series of interviews

Nine years. NINE. YEARS. Because of some tattle tale? That’s a what-if I wouldn’t be able to escape, dude.

'Run, run, run': Chaos at a Sydney mall as 6 people stabbed to death, and the suspect fatally shot (apnews.com)

A man stabbed six people to death at a busy Sydney shopping center Saturday before he was fatally shot, police said, with hundreds fleeing the chaotic scene, many weeping as they carried their children. Eight people, including a 9-month-old, were injured....

victorz,

So close the app. 👍

victorz,

I really wish Ukraine would have been a NATO country back in 2022. 😐 These wars are making me weary and anxious.

victorz,

I really wanted her to give him a better hug than that though, wtf was that. Not everyone is a hugger, I suppose.

victorz,

I don’t get what being professional has to do with giving your childhood classmate a proper hug. She came to his release and everything, as a private citizen and not on duty.

I’ll chalk it up to her being a bad hugger or something. She doesn’t owe him a proper hug or anything like that, I just wish it looked more like she wasn’t pity-hugging him.

victorz,

Whatever floats your boat in each different situation depending on the individual. I’m just telling you what I’d like to have seen. 🤷‍♂️

victorz,

You float my balls 😗

victorz,

Yeah that’s some Final Destination type shit

victorz,

Of course they are 😕 God, they just have no shame. How will they pay for these war crimes?

victorz,

Sweet, sweet, justice. 🤡

victorz,

Those are only the ones who follow orders though. How can we get the people who give orders to use the gas?

victorz,

Interesting, wow. Thank you for that.

victorz,

Let’s hope you’re right.

victorz,

I don’t understand how we can have these international laws without any enforcing. Very frustrating.

victorz,

🤞😄

victorz,

So this is how all laws work except it’s very different? Or how would I interpret this? What is how all laws work?

victorz,

I imagine they are using everything they have right now, including everything in their no-no storages.

victorz,

You know, that’s almost the thing that baffles me the most about human history. Majority of wars fought in the modern era seems like entire armies are just blindly obeying their masters. 1 person tells thousand upon thousands, “go forth and kill those other men, and risk your lives! Why? Don’t ask questions!”

“Yes sir!”

Not, “wtf lol?” [storms stage and starts stabbing]

Like, risk your lives killing another army, or risk your life killing one single dude… ⚖️🧮🤔📊📈🔮🫠

victorz,

I dunno if I believe that to be 100% true, regarding the “all laws” part. But definitely a substantial amount true, for sure, sadly.

victorz,

Indeed it is 😕

victorz,

How fun! Thanks for sharing! Looking forward to trying them all out.

I just bought a new mechanical keyboard so I’m looking for excuses to use it. 😄

victorz,

What made the UK such a hindrance for the EU?

victorz,

Okay. In what way?

victorz,

I can’t answer your question because I don’t know. But I take it maybe you mean that as a rhetorical question?

Sounds very bad if true, which I have no doubt it is.

victorz,

What are the chances 🤐

victorz,

Your way of writing EMPHASIS is quite jarring 😅.

There’s markdown support, like this.

victorz,

There is an entire massively powerful infrastructure that, for some fuckin reason, kowtows to Israel

I mean it’s gotta be the fact that there are so many more Jews in America than Muslims, right? If that’s even the case, I don’t even know. But if that’s the case (which is my guess), that’s gotta be the reason, in my mind. The President will represent the majority for popularity, is what I’m thinking.

victorz,

What? I’m not American so I would need a little more detail.

victorz,

That sounds right, yeah. 👍

victorz,

Happily living in northern Sweden until I have to migrate further north to avoid these fuckers. Regular mosquitos are bad enough here as it is during the summer.

Are… are tiger mosquitos worse than regular ones?

victorz,

Revisit this thread some day and really think hard about what you’ve said here. I’m sure you won’t be proud. 🫤 I wish you well.

victorz,

Inside job to incite grief, anger and fear to fuel the war machine?

victorz,

Companies, fuckin do something, then! I can’t do shit as a citizen! I’m helpless! 😭

victorz,

I’m surprised after the holocaust that the government has the fucking nerve to inflict the same type of treatment on others.

On this, I’m with you. It’s so ironic it’s absolutely wild and disappointing and depressing.

I hope everyone realizes that most of Israel is against the government and what they are doing.

Regarding this, it’s very difficult to “realize” when most of the media portrays the Israelis as super racist scumbags. I can’t believe some of the things they are shouting at each other (both sides actually but especially the Israelis), and especially considering the other thing you mentioned regarding their history during WWII, and prior. The media (social and otherwise) is showing us video evidence of widespread racism against the Palestinians, all the way from the country leaders (on both sides, granted). It’s hard to deny having seen those images. But it’s also hard to judge how selective the reporting is.

I, for one, have not “realized”, because I can never have the data necessary.

victorz,

I haven’t tried this, and I’m not gonna lie, it’s not easy on the eyes. Would love to be proven wrong though, but it’s not gonna be me who proves it 😅 Somebody’s gotta give me a sample.

lol how reddit, down votes for having an opinion 👍

victorz,

That line… Can I ask how old you are, respectfully? Because women my age would probably find that line to be quite juvenile 😅

victorz,

I mean yeah, all that is fine. I met my wife nine years ago today, we’re 37 & 38 – my first kiss with her was the same: could just feel it in the air and our body language. But we just started making out without any line, lol. I just went for it 😅 Only done that once in my life before then, but it was just after my previous marriage (finally) ended and I just wanted to really put myself outside of my comfort zone.

In all honesty, I think maybe the line wouldn’t work with me, rather than the women. I think it’s too cheesy for me lol. I’m known for being goofy and having a good sense of humor but when it comes to romance I hang it up on the shelf. I prefer to be more serious then, I think. Not dead serious, but you know, romantic serious. 🫠

How Do You Deal With Thumb Stick Drift? (lemmy.world)

So I like to use Xbox controllers (doesn’t matter if it’s first- or third-party) because I like the layout, it’s just comfortable to me. However I’ve noticed that on all my controllers in the past few years, the left thumb stick will start to “give out” over the course of a couple months. For instance I’ll be...

victorz,

Can’t wait until an Elite that comes with Hall Effect sticks. Surely that is the next step for the next gen controller. Certainly at that premium price point.

victorz,

Definitely l4d boomers. I still play it once a year with the buddies. Install, play 1-2 hrs, goodnight, uninstall, repeat next year.

victorz,

Honestly how have there not been any successful assassination attempts on this mf yet, seriously. Let’s get on with it, shall we. I’m over Putin already, since even before the war.

victorz,

I really need to play this.
