Sans titre

If someone has an heat stroke or heat exhaustion, and you can cool them with ice packs, firstly put them in a towel or cloth because we don't want to ice burn, and put the ice pack either under the shoulder or between the thighs. Those are the most efficient place to put it in order to cool someone. And when you're out, try to stay in the shadows...

To be fair, the Leftists today act like when the Nazis came to power: they promote antisemitism and attack the centrist a lot more than the far right. German leftists could have stopped the World War 2 and the Holocaust in the ballot box and refused to do so...

tankies will die on the hill of "the Soviet Union was an ideal model for society" as if the soviets weren't just another form of authoritarians

The Soviet Union was an "ideal" model for society in the sense that it was purely based on ideas with a complete disregard of reality. And when such society is inevitably confronted by reality coming knocking at its door, if their answer it "Eh, we have a monopoly on violence!", we end up with authoritarianism...

"Academic" articles that refer anachronistically to ancient Canaan and Israel as "palestine" and to a "palestinian people" living there are like if they referred to "the indigenous Canadian people of North America circa 2000 BCE." It's incoherent nonsense.

Especially since there was a kingdom of Palestine toward 1000 BC, based in Turkey...

You mean philistia? That was on the coast of canaan/Israel around gaza and Ashdod, not in anatolia, but it was an aegean greek colony. And palestine has even less to do with the philistines than massachusetts has to do with the Muhsachuweeseeak; at least in the latter case the colonisers overlapped temporally with the peoples whose names they appropriated.

Nah, there was a kingdom of Palestine or Walistin in Southweast Turkey/Northern Syria, with possibly a capital at Tal Tayinat in today's Turkey. It is not the same thing as the philistine... If somebody describe a Bronze Age people as "Palestinian", it probably should be that kingdom

"ooh I wish every 25 year old woman would start retinoid so they don't deal with fine lines in their 30's!" we need to kill Instagram dermatologists

yayy I'm using my diploma to push insecure women into using strong topical medication without actual medical guidance all for the sake of looking younger!!!! yippee!!!

You need sunscreen so you don't get cancer. Everything else is just goo.

Moisturizer can also be useful...

Elizabeth (אלישבע) got me real bad.

WHAT!?

finding out safed was how most non jews said tzfat made me kind of queasy actually that is fucking nothing like the actual word

i think they call שכם nablus?!? not one of the letters are in the hebrew

They don't call Shechem Nablus. The Roman destroyed Shechem and built a colony next to it, called Neapolis. Nablus come from Neapolis.

Christians and Jews would do well to be reminded of Pikuach nefesh, the law that states that every bigoted garbage belief they have is overruled by the need to save lives.

Christians infamously do not believe in pikuach nefesh, they believe in martyrdom, which is complete opposition to that.

There is martyrdom in judaism... Dying Kiddush Hashem is a thing

The romanticization of the Bund (which I'm not gonna lie, I get to a certain extent) ignores the uncomfortable truth that there has never been a way to be Jewish that protects you. There were still pogroms and oppression and antisemitism when the Bund was a viable force and alternative to Zionism.

I don't under being a fan of a political organisation without knowing what their program were. Like what does the non-territorial nationalism that the Bund was in favor to means concretely?

I was under the impression that their Jewish autonomy within Russia was more based on school segregation, and segregation in all the cultural spheres (newspaper, theater, political organisations and the like)...

Seeing chronically online larpers being brain broken about Artemis II is funny because they keep yelling about colonialism and like. Yeah colonialism bad but… there is no life to colonize on the fucking moon, guys.

I wonder if they even know why they think it’s bad? what’s their reasoning? are they picturing, like, Moon Columbus? I’m genuinely curious

Oh it's because space is objectively cool and if doing space exploration includes an American flag then that means the American flag is involved in a cool thing which is not allowed. NASA is considered propaganda. I used to be one of these people sadly.

What would they think about an ant colony?

Anyone know good vegan alternatives for the blood of Christian children in the matzah? I keep experimenting with flaxseed but I just haven’t been able to find the right substitute

its still sort of funny to me that the "lets drink the symbolic blood of jesus" religion accused the "blood is NOT kosher check your eggs for any teeny tiny contamination" religion of eating blood

They like to accuse other religions of copying xtianity in an *evil* way... They did the same thing with mythraist when they were a thing

If communists were to vote for that Marx Zentrum guy in 1925 Germany, they would have very possibly stopped the Nazis...
