@elysegrasso Hey Broken Oaths and Boundaries (vol 2 of Elderkin Chronicles) just showed up on my reader app! Possibly you do less marketing type posts than typical authors. I at least wouldn't mind a bit more :) anyways looking forward to the feast. #bookstodon

Time for a new variation on a classic.
okay this is the best one

My facial hair is now quite visible but not thick enough (yet) to look really good so I decided to shave.

It was bliss.

The typical gestures of shaving, the little scrrrtchhh sound of the razor, all these small things that I've seen men doing so often... now I'm doing them!

Happiness doesn't describe the feeling.
It felt perfectly right.
I felt perfectly myself.

And to think that it's something I'll have to do regularly definitely brings me a lot of joy!

@appassionato @dbattistella @palestine The worlds most moral army? It appears a better argument would be if you have served in the IDF, you are a war criminal; until proven innocent.
The number of single bullet wounds to the head and thorax suggests snipers aiming at children. The children shot while picking fruit on the west bank. The diplomats shot at. The deliberate bombing of hospitals. The execution of civil aid personnel (protected under Geneva convention), and known aid workers.

@epistatacadam @dbattistella @palestine

Not to mention journalists & their families.

@appassionato @dbattistella @palestine I ran out of space....
I hope ICC opens cases against all active IDF senior officers active since Oct7 and Sin Bet and Mossad. Starting at the top, then working down the chain of command. Perhaps open a Special tribunal in Siniai, with a large prison camp to hold the suspects, and the guilty.

They're waiting for reinforcements.

@dbattistella

This is anti-semetic!

@Madagascar_Sky @dbattistella --

Crazy to say that children shouldn't be killed is anti-semitic.

You could use the same meme advocating for new gun laws to protect kids from school shootings in the US.

Memes are a sort of shorthand to make a point. The memes are very short and usually only have a very simply message. Memes are shallow. No depth, no nuance. This is why memes are so awesome. It is a modern day Rorschach inkblot test where people will project their psychology and politics onto, whether those things are in the meme or not. So, to quote Megan Thee Stallion, โ€œa hit dog gon' holler. That's it. Whoever feel it, feel itโ€ People are outing themselves and it's hilarious to me. #memes
