Microsoft Windows in CRISIS
Chuck Darwin"Terrible things are happening outside.
Poor helpless people are being dragged out of their homes.
Families are torn apart.
Men, women, and children are separated.
Children come home from school to find that their parents have disappeared."

Provincie Flevoland🔋 Vanaf vandaag kunnen Flevolandse woningeigenaren én huurders subsidie aanvragen voor een thuisbatterij. Met deze regeling helpen we inwoners om #energie slimmer op te slaan, #energiekosten te verlagen en het #elektriciteitsnet te ontlasten.

Raphael Mimoun רפאל מימוןStanding Together activists disrupt a live broadcast of Big Brother in Israel, wearing “Leave Gaza” shirts and calling for an end to the genocide and against Netanyahu’s plan for permanent occupation of Gaza.
Standing Together started as a vague pro peace movement that refused to name apartheid. It's been good to see them become more radical and force other Israelis to face the genocide they're perpetrating.
javi"The US taxpayer has been subsidicing the defense of europe"
Look at me in the eyes. Look at me while I say this:
Bollocks.
BOLLOCKS.
BO.
LLOCKS.
The US 'defense' of Europe is carried out by around 65k US soldiers based in a couple of dozen US military bases in EU territory. The combined armies from the EU countries (and this is not even counting non-EU european countries, like the UK or Norway) have something between 1.5 and 2 million active troops. It doesn't feel those 65k USians are the ultimate line of defense of Europe.
Do you know for whom those soldiers and military bases are crucial, instead? For THE FUCKING US OF AMERICA.
Because, hear me out, WITHOUT EUROPEAN BASES THE US CAN'T PROJECT POWER INTO THE MIDDLE EAST NOR NORTH AFRICA. Yeah, sure, a carrier group is very impressive and the ultimate modern weapon yadda yadda. Good luck sending it to them to the persian gulf straight from the US East Coast. And even better luck trying to supply them without airbases in Europe. Ane even better than better luck putting troops on the groups anywhere in the old world without those bases.
Without their European military bases, the US is no longer a global military power. A major one? sure. But one that's MUCH more local than they have been until know, more similar to Russia or China.
So honestly, maybe it's time to get them to fuck off of our continent.

Qasim Rashid, Esq.Motion to stop using the phrase "Health Insurance Company." They're not insuring health—they're exploiting illness.
Going forward I propose we refer to them accurately as "Health Exploitation Limited Liability Corporations."
HELL Corporations.
Who agrees?
