I thought he’d already been coronated…or whatever they call it.

It's one-year anniversary. Monarchs are like small children, they need constant attention.

If they weren't committing a genocide, then I would agree that THIS is insane, but this is just casual Sunday for current Israel's government.

alvvayson , in Gaza war surgeon feels ‘criminalised’ after being denied entry to France

I feel obliged to point out that, Brexit didn't happen, then his rights as an EU citizen would have been violated. As far as I know, you can't use the Schengen system against EU citizens.

But because he was British and Brexit happened, Germany could do this.

But I do wonder.. if the French government would formally invite him, they should be able to overrule the German decision. It seems that they decided not to do that?

NoneOfUrBusiness ,

He was invited by the Green Party, not by the senate as a whole. It's likely the rest of them didn't care.

LodeMike ,

You literally cannot deny entry to citizens its internationally illegal

phoenixz , in Cop29 summit to call for peace between warring states, says host Azerbaijan

Good luck with that. Not seeing more peace happen for the next decade at least.

z3rOR0ne , in ‘There are people in tents writing dissertations’: UK reaches for scale of US campus protests
@z3rOR0ne@lemmy.ml avatar

Good. This generation will be the ones writing about this time period as the sad pathetic chapter of human history it is.

Let our children be the ones to rain down upon us unrelenting and constant reminders of our own compromises made with corporate and government fascists. Compromises where we were willing to sacrifice the lives, autonomy, and national identity of an entire ethnic group of people in exchange for imperialist power.

Don't relent. Don't let the fascists off the hook. Call out this genocide for what it is and fight to stop it. Fight until the world bows its head in shame and drops its arms, and then execute the war criminals.

IbnLemmy , in Israel-Gaza: Palestinian doctor dies in Israeli prison

Oh wow, he just "died"

Why was this not murder? Or can brown people not be murdered.

Before this info about how unhealthy gas stoves are came out, I switched to an induction range. I really liked it then and still do now. Highly recommended.

But, under this Conservative government, they are left with a local hospital that has become dangerous for both patients and staff.

are these similar conservatives to the ones in the usa who pretend to care about people, but then remove all funding because fuck people ?

Every day, becoming more like the USA :(

someguy3 , in Gas stoves increase nitrogen dioxide exposure above WHO standards – study

I really don't get this love of gas stoves. You'd think electric stoves killed their parents.

Nougat ,

There's a whole lot of people for whom "electric stove" means "giant metal coil that heats up in an uncontrollable way and contacts my cookware unevenly."

When my gas stove fails, I will almost certainly replace it with an electric induction stove. I have never used one, but my understanding is that they are just as easy to cook with as a gas stove.

However, old style electric stoves are still about half the price of induction stoves, and gas stoves are even cheaper. I can't fault someone for having to replace their range with something they can just barely afford instead of with something they can't afford at all.

Skua ,

Having used all three types a fair bit, holy shit yes a good induction hob is leagues above the old electric coil ones

someguy3 ,

There it is. Lol very controllable. The only way it doesn't contact properly is if you have warped pots. You also missed one of the electric stoves, is that the one that killed your parents?

Nougat ,

You also missed one of the electric stoves, ...

Which one?

... is that the one that killed your parents?

Now I'm thinking you read someone else's comment and not mine.

I don't get it either. I hate them as well and I just see them as one more thing for landowners to fuck you over with on. I wanted to get into baking things at one point but because I baked a pizza for 20 minutes in my gas stove, that was like $15 on my utility bill on top of rent. Fuck that.

Indeed. I proofread the whole post, but forgot about the title.

NoneOfUrBusiness , in Biden Echoes Fascist Rhetoric in Speech Denouncing “Lawless” Pro-Palestine Protests

I generally consider calling Democrats fascists to be a massive exaggeration, but if it looks like a fascist, quacks like a fascist and acts like a fascist, it's a fascist.

juicy , in Rutgers and University of Minnesota reach resolutions with Gaza protesters

Disappointing to see these students capitulate for peanuts that don't come close to actual divestment.
