Let go and let entropy. 🌌
Seriously though, what is x.com and the x app? I just followed the link to google play and it seems’ish like it’s just the twitter microblog, but I’m seeing things mentioned that I didn’t think are part of twitter. I’ve never used twitter or any x products, so I’m actually in the dark.
I’m pretty sure that “x, formerly known as twitter” is the name of the company. So… forever.
What about Elon…
Honestly was thinking the same. Now we sit and wait for what the response will be… 😬
And so it seems the escalation many worried would be the case has been confirmed. What a mess. I have a bad feeling about this.
It’s just insane. Seriously. I can’t wrap my head around so many of these businesses.
And may they fail… gloriously.
Like so many other companies…
Will they learn though. Will this strike be the beginning of something…
🤞🏽
This is remarkably helpful in clearing things up. Thank you very much!
With the government of Lebanon allowing Hezbollah this kind of status, it would seem that Israel is not just targeting a terrorist organization but the government of Lebanon itself since it permits and supports Hezbollah as part of its own government.
Considering that most Lebanese don’t support Hezbollah, this is even more tragic. Israel continues to lay waste to the country due to the actions of a minority government entity. And it’s the Lebanese citizens who are paying the price.
I presumed that this was more lucrative for them and why it’s the case…
There’s never been a greater need for social entrepreneurial ventures, but they just aren’t compatible with capitalistic societies.
Imagine insurance companies there for the benefit of people when tragedy strikes but limiting costs to simply running operations and very limited profit.
Not a single executive with experience would ever want to work at such a place because they would be paid a fraction of what they could at any other company… But goodness it would be incredible for social businesses to become the prevalent model.
The closest I can think of at the moment in the United States is Mark Cuban’s Cost Plus Pharmacy. Probably much can be said about his wealth and how he achieved it, but… the pharmacy has been a huge boon for people.
Keep going. Still so much to do. And certainly not just with Catholic churches.
I have to be honest, I’m still a little confused about the relationship of Lebanon’s sovereign government and Hezbollah. Are they synonymous? Is that how Israel is able to just lay waste to Lebanon as well without the world screaming about attacks on sovereign territory?
You know, I’m kind of curious why property insurance companies aren’t at the vanguard of tackling climate change…
That’s absolutely one of the key reasons the US supports Israel. However, that doesn’t mean it can turn a blind eye to what Israel actually does.
The West, especially the United States, has the ability to exert a lot of influence on Israel and yet it seems that they’re not trying. Withholding military aid, among other things, goes a long way.
I really wonder what it is I’m missing when it comes to why they won’t exert pressure the way it seems they should.
I won’t pretend to understand the complexity of this horrific situation. I’m angry and fed up with Israel and the West’s relationship with Israel. And it confuses the hell out of me when I see things like this exposé from Bob Woodward that just came out: https://www.cnn.com/2024/10/08/politics/bob-woodward-book-war-joe-biden-putin-netanyahu-trump/index.html
“That son of a bitch, Bibi Netanyahu, he’s a bad guy. He’s a bad fucking guy!” Biden declared privately about the Israeli prime minister to one of his associates in the spring of 2024 as Israel’s war in Gaza intensified, Woodward writes.
“He’s a fucking liar,” Biden said privately of Netanyahu, after Israel went into Rafah, Woodward writes.
“Bibi, what the fuck?” Biden yelled at Netanyahu in July after an Israeli airstrike killed a top Hezbollah military commander and three civilians in Beirut, according to Woodward.
“You know the perception of Israel around the world increasingly is that you’re a rogue state, a rogue actor,” Biden said to Netanyahu.
If this is how Biden privately talks about the guy, I have to wonder what’s keeping him from being public about it. I understand this is politics, but I want to hope that there’s more to it because the United States and other Western nations sure as hell should not be complicit in the slaughter of Palestinians simply because of politics.
🤬🤬🤬
I really, really wish the linked article explained more. What are they playing at? This is such a confusing level of control.

Yep. Trump’s a swell guy. Loves space. Loves dogs , cats, and geese. Will pass an executive order to allow dogs, cats, and geese to join space force. What more could you ask for in a president. Best president in history. A second term even better. What could go wrong?
