Technology is a trip
My boss wanted everyone to come back into the office to stand around for 8 hours and ask each other how we are doing and take an occasional zoom meeting.

Thank you!! Could you say more about the leaning anti woke piece?
Am I understanding folks use of the word "based" correctly as describing something based in truth or that really resonates with someone?
Wow dios les bendiga a los que se cayeron en el agua

It's wild how some time zones don't do daylight savings so time differences are always changing
The internet is about to get weird again, by nostr:npub1t8u7s2z2e8j5gdup94s7kjyjxqle03hekumc3kmd0ppermdwsqrsgac7sk
All Hail The Weird Internet!
Now's a good time to get into web development 😎
The UN security council passed a Gaza ceasefire resolution. I'm glad this happened.

I have a questions (since I can't read it). When they say "all hostages" do they include Palestinians being detained without charge by Israel? I suspect not. Have I been mislead about such hostages held by the other side? Or does the international community simply accept Israel's claims about them, given they weren't clearly taken as "innocent hostages" for the purpose of leverage? It's just all unclear to me.
Israel is not happy that Hamas was not condemned.
Russia is more concerned that the ceasefire is not permanent and is pushing for a more permanent ceasefire.
The US, while abstaining, chooses to interpret the vote as international support for US policy (why am I not suprised)?
though it reflects a shift in the genocidal regime's stance, its important to not disillusion oursevles because the ceasefire resolution doesnt mention the thousands of Palestinian hostages and prisoners who are currently sitting in Israeli prisons. there are women and kids in there that have been locked up for years.
you might have your way the way things are going
RFK is also a piece of shit Zionist smh they all trash man
not that this is gonna stop anything immediately. they only allowed it because the resolution allowed for israeli hostages to be released. doesnt say anything about the thousands of Palestinian prisoners currently sitting behind israeli bars.
todo menos cortar el gasto en guerra wow que cari pelaos son
