It's horrible. Neither this synagogue nor that little Palestinian child who was stabbed deserve hate for political stuff happening across the planet. This is what happens when hate is generalized to a whole population.

Republican politicians: "Hm... This has always worked before with the Democrats. Why isn't this working?! 😠"

Fair enough. I only used the legal language because I hadn't looked into it that much so I didn't want to say something wrong and then have people yell at me that he's innocent or something. But ya, this one sounds pretty bad.

I mean, ya, there's a lot of Palestinians there. That's because Israel took their land. There's also a lot of black people in South Africa, even during apartheid, too. But tons of them were still pushed off their homes into tiny strips of land in Gaza and the West Bank, so now the majority are in those other places. The same thing happened to the natives in the US.

IDF don't target civilians explicitly but they also don't seem to care about them. They've killed thousands more civilians than Hamas has with the barest of excuses, all to find Hamas not really caring about collateral. That's what happens when you drop bombs all over the place. And the fear and terror and horrible quality of life causes things like Hamas. Hamas sucks, I'm sure they would kill more if they could, but Israel has the power in this relationship. When non-violent protests lead to killed or getting your knees blown off, or to nothing at all (like most protests for Palestinians have been for the last near century), when there's no hope or chance of growth, the average is 18 and you're probably never going to grow old or successful, then people turn to monsters like Hamas.

They're broken up because of some allegations. I'm sorry you have to learn this way. I never saw them live but have always wanted to, now I can't.

So why did the US sign and never ratify this treaty?

That one was devastating 😭

Lemmy I've found to be better at condemning both Hamas and the IDF, bit try Reddit, FB, or X. Or people in real life.

I imagine your perspective also changes if the missiles were landing and killing people, innocent civilians all around you, your house, hospitals, etc. That's what it's like for the people in Gaza. It also looks pretty suspicious when there's lots of immigrants in Israel and mostly Palestinians in a separate cordoned off area (kinda like an apartheid state).

Damn they're on fire lol.

This is happening all over tech. I feel so bad for people trying to get in the industry now.

Oh wow, thanks for the recommendation! That looks a lot more comfortable than the normal sleep masks I get. It also looks like it might last longer, because often the elastic on my normal sleep masks stretch over time and start falling off my face. I should save this comment, maybe this whole thread lol.

Was going to say my sleep mask. My partner needs a TV show on when she goes to sleep, I need pitch black. The sleep mask has made it possible to sleep in the same bed.

Thanks to centralization that can change at any moment and people can't do anything about it. We learned that from Twitter and Reddit and others.

Which Mastadon app? I've seen a couple. The official one? I also heard Tusky was good.

Oh for sure. And it probably helps people in Adventurer League or cons and stuff like that, although I never play in official tables with strangers, I'm sure lots of people do.

I feel this too hard. I feel so bad for my partner right now who has to hear my constant babbling about my newest homebrew setting lol.

I just posted that I love all the cantrip changes, but I change my mind. You're totally right. I like those little, unique effects.

Sounds like they're trying to get into the area that a lot of third parties have taken with Bastions, like the Strongholds & Followers book that MCDM already published or Walrock's stronghold's homebrew on DM's guild. Probably a good idea for people who don't use third-party material but seems too late and unnecessary for me now lol.

It might be a good combination, though, since it does look a little similar to me like a combination of those two systems. This makes sense since I think Matt Colville said he adopted systems and stuff that had been in past D&D versions, so it makes sense an official variant would have some similarities. I'll probably just use this as more options with Strongholds and Followers, which has been working for me so far.

As for the cantrip changes, nothing much to say except I love them all.
