#pepper fact! The color of a pepper isn't inherently indicative of heat; while it can be used to see ripeness (which can affect heat), not all peppers turn red when ripe, and not all ripe peppers are spicier than unripe ones.
@stevesilberman They already do. @barney@mas.to
Happily, Ella and Dafna were reunited with their mother tonight after spending more than 50 days as captives of Hamas in Gaza.
Don't get killed on the job in Indiana. Your life is worth only $7K if your employer kills you. For Amazon, that's about a nanosecond of profit on any given day.

@crooksandliars So what is a Christmas tree?
What do conservatives want?
For more Black mamas to die from childbirth. Apparently.
Racist groups are suing to end the pioneering guaranteed income project, the Abundant Birth Project, for pregnant Black and Pacific Islanders (who experience the *worst* maternal mortality rates). They say it 'illegally discriminates.'

Intercepted calls from the front lines in #Ukraine show a growing number of #Russian soldiers want out
Godspeed!
In secret recordings obtained by #AP of Russians calling home from #Kharkiv, #Luhansk & #Donetsk, there’s no "dying the death of the brave”
AP verified identities of people in the calls by speaking with relatives and soldiers — some of whom are still at war in Ukraine — and researching open-source material linked to the phone numbers used by the soldiers.
You won't find me defending Netanyahu's disastrous policies
But all that is irrelevant at the present moment. Our survival depends on the destruction of Hamas
“This afternoon, following the release of Abigail Edan by Hamas, President Biden spoke by phone with members of Abigail's family in the United States and Israel. President Biden spoke with Prime Minister Netanyahu to discuss the latest developments in Israel and Gaza and the recent release of hostages, including Abigail Edan, by Hamas.” - White House
@TMRuppert Let’s hope they do better in the 2nd half.

That was the moment when Strauss uttered the words that precipitated the uproar: Hamas are murderers. That’s all they are. Every one should be killed, and I hope they all are killed. https://www.latimes.com/california/story/2023-11-26/a-usc-professor-called-for-hamas-to-be-killed-hes-now-banned-from-campus
"It is shocking and deeply upsetting that three young Palestinians were shot here in Burlington,” says the Vermont city’s former mayor, Sen. Bernie Sanders. “Hate has no place here, or anywhere. I look forward to a full investigation. My thoughts are with them and their families."
