It's inspiring to see people coming together to stand up for the rights of the LGBTQ+ community in Uganda. Discrimination and prejudice have no place in society.

Reply to comment by One_User134 in China vows to ‘fight back’ if US speaker meets Taiwan’s president by BubsyFanboy
Yes, I can't believe that drill happened and we did nothing about it, also the world did nothing about it. That drill was basically blockading Taiwan!

Sure, but if the iron cross was on the flag that was draped over half of europe then I can promise you germany wouldn’t still be using it.

God, read a fucking book.
Having gay parents won’t make you gay. You know how I know? because if that were true, there would be no gay people, we come from straight parents. Because the biology of your parents has no bearing on your orientation.
You know what has a bearing on mental health and the happiness of a child? Whether their parents are loving and supportive, or if they’re not - like you, or my parents were.
And at the end of the day, this has no impact on your life. It doesn’t concern you, so butt out. Your personal beliefs aren’t important when they affect the happiness of others. You aren’t important.

Absolutely, lots of Russian and Belorussian athletes competed in the other Grand Slam tournaments. In the Australian Open 2023, the women's final was a Belorussian against a Russian (who now starts for Kazakhstan).

Ditto over the ditch in NZ.
I know farmers weren't happy when we shut down and didn't allow them to import cheap workers to exploit.

But germany had a more clear distinction between the traditional German armed forces (which were still guilty of plenty of war crimes) and the Nazi party and their military organizations (the SS and the SA). Nothing to do with the SS and the SA survived.
In Japan there was no equivalent political movement that swept into power and perverted the national psyche. It was the traditional institutions that led the charge.

Reply to comment by CentJr in U.S. Extends Carrier Deployment After Syria Attack by Kimber80
You bring up food points. But can you honestly say the US and Israel are not also engaged in a proxy war with them? It's been tit for tat hacking, assassinations, bombings etc. Can't assassinate their military leaders, hack their infrastructure and not expect the same back. Also, blame Trump for canceling the nuclear deal that they were obeying. Now with countries like Russia invading and bullying weaker neighbors who aren't nuclear states and not backed by NATO, places like Iran are more likely and understandably going to enrich uranium to have their own deterrent.
The next year will be very telling.

Here's the information regarding the recent fungal threat. There are MANY fungal infections that infect humans internally, and many of them become very deadly.https://www.cdc.gov/fungal/candida-auris/index.html
Toenail fungus lives in the nailbed, and there are many fungal infections that cause toenail fungus. The most common one typically does not spread past the nailbed. Some, can infect the blood stream and will result in death if not treated.
here's a list of SOME fungal infections that are dangerous.https://www.cdc.gov/fungal/diseases/index.html
This list is not exhaustive.
Regarding toenail fungus....the infection is often so hard to get rid of, that you're sometimes prescribed a pill for it that can do significant damage to your liver, to the point that you have to have frequent bloodwork while taking the medication in order to monitor your liver and ensure it's not being damaged too much. Many people are removed from this medication due to their liver suffering too much from it. At which point, the next method to cure the infection is to surgically remove the nail, then sterilize the matrix so the nail doesn't grow back and then continuously apply topical prescription strength antifungals directly to the nail bed and do crazy things like change your socks 3 times a day and sterilize them in bleach or boiling water before washing them separately from other clothes.

I don’t think this is accurate at all. Japan was 100% defeated militarily. They may have been able to kill a lot more people before the end, but there was zero doubt as to the outcome. The remaining Japanese military was a shell of its former self. Any punch they had left was just the sheer number of civilians they were going to enlist in suicidal last-stands. Plus the entire country was being starved out. They were no less defeated than the Nazis, and if japan wasn’t an island it probably would have happened much sooner.

Reply to comment by xdzgor in Eurozone inflation falls sharply as energy prices drop by misana123
In your example you have 500% inflation from F22 - M22. Then 4xx% deflation M22 to F23. Then almost 500% inflation again. Although they technically fit the headline, the narrative won’t be the same, as you likely have currency instability. More accurate numbers would be
Feb 2022 = $100 Mar 2022 = $100 Feb 2023 = $115 Mar 2023 = $115.4
What they’re not showing, is January numbers, which hypothetically could look like
Jan 2022 = $100 Jan 2023 = $110
Adding that, you can see the rate of change YoY being 10%, 15%, 15.4%.
Not sure if that helps you visualize it better.

Reply to The Catholic Church took a fresh step Thursday in acknowledging abuse endured by Indigenous peoples with the Vatican formally rejecting 15th-century papal edicts that empowered Europeans to colonize non-Christian lands by DoremusJessup
Don’t wish to offend anyone, however I can’t help thinking even as someone who is not a great Church attender that I have to remember to distinguish between what Christ preached and the mess mankind made of his Church.
