As Antonio Gramsci argued, ruling groups maintain power partly by making their ideas seem like common sense. This helps explain the political significance of Metallica’s call for disengagement at a time when Israel’s genocide in Palestine demands urgent international attention. Hetfield’s vague agenda of “love, energy and heavy music” ultimately amounts to a refusal to stand for anything meaningful. And that refusal is itself deeply political.

Former diplomat Mark Smith, who resigned in August 2024 over arms exports to Israel, said his requests for an explanation had been met with instructions to delete emails and stop questioning the policy.

Poor “Eastern European” guy, he was roaming the west bank streets to shoot some kids, and then he get attacked by a bunch of barbaric indigenous arabs.

Firstly i admit i am clueless in plants so treat this 45 years old man like a kid when you explain stuff,

I get this last year she was getting bigger rapidly but was nice for the past 8 months. suddenly this middle big stem came from ground and started dying, yellow to brown leafs, i cut the first top part, then the lower leaves started turning brown and dead so my dad cut it like this.

I water it every two to three weeks with cup of human drinking water, or by touching the soil to see if its dry then i water it.

Just found out that this little bitch bird is killing all the other small birds that lived for years on the trees next to our house.

I noticed lately that the usual birds sounds are gone for the past three weeks, it appears this fucker is killing them
