Of course!

Historically it doesn’t matter what the creator of anything prefers unless it’s an “unveiling” and they name it on the spot.
I can't for the life of me find it now, but the gif was introduced with an image that contained in its metadata a statement that "it's pronounced jif". You can still find it somewhere and open it in notepad and read it for yourself.
I love when people who grew up in the 70s tell me the world is so much less safe today.
$150k is twice what my parents made combined back in the 90s, and they lived a solid upper middle class life in an upscale suburb of a small city. Always had a nice TV and my dad and I both had PCs that we upgraded every year AND they saved up two years worth of college for me. Amazing how quickly things have changed. They bought their house for $180k and it's now worth nearly $500k.
My career now is generally a higher valued one than theirs, but adjusting for inflation, my pay has always been lower than theirs at the same point in their careers. And that's the story. Incomes may have doubled since the early-mid 90s, but everything else has tripled or quadrupled.
Even if the lights are leveled correctly, part of the problem is how directional LEDs are. On a flat surface you're fine. If you're cresting a hill so your vehicle is level and there's someone coming up the hill towards you, your headlights are shining directly in their eyes. As soon as you start descending the hill your headlights are now pointing in the right direction relative to oncoming traffic again. Adjust the headlights down and you just change the angle that this happens at. Adjust the headlights down so it only happens on particularly steep hills, and your headlights are basically useless because they're not illuminating enough of the road in front of you.
Great topic. A lot of my discovery was through /r/listentothis, but I'm 100% off reddit now, so these recommendations are helpful.
The inconvenient other half is that they have blocked EVERY possible exit from Gaza, including telling the Egyptians to not allow anyone out.
Er... that's not true. They were initially telling Palestinians to go to Egypt. Egypt does not want them in the Sinai and told Israel to provide safe passage through Israel.
Israel has conscription and it's the size of New Jersey. It's not hard for them to mobilize to whatever border they need to within hours.
Suddenly, I'm hungry for mozzarella sticks.
Israel is the ancestral land of the Jews, its government is Jewish, its people are Jewish. If you don’t support Israel, you are an anti-Semite. Stop equivocating.
Hey, Jew here. You're wrong. Yom Kippur is on Monday, please consider asking God for forgiveness for this awful, ignorant comment.

It's clear from the TOS that unless Mrs. Gibson expressly permitted dissemination of the materials, that the sites on which they were reposted AND the GOP operative "had reason to know" that they were not licensed or authorized to disseminate the content. That said, it's hard to prove malintent in a political context. GOP operative could simply argue that there was a public interest in this information being shared.

I feel like a dick talking about it with what's going on, but it's still important. And to be clear, we Jews who are inculcated with Zionism and the generational trauma of the Holocaust from a young age have to zealously interrogate our unconscious fears and biases. The protests provide the perfect opportunity to confront it head on if you can swallow your pride and just listen. My Arab & Muslim friends are some of the most thoughtful people I know, with strong opinions and moral convictions that come right from the deepest parts of their being. I feel as at home with them as I did in the Synagogue growing up, and I have no doubt if I were to attend a peace protest that I would find many more like them. They're an absolute gift; I was never a supporter of Israel, but their friendship has thrown the whole thing into even sharper focus since October 7th. I hope one day the Zionists can be defeated, and from the river to the sea, all good people will finally be free.
