Caught up with an old friend who I was really close with but who I haven't seen much in recent years.
They've got full reactionary brainworms 
Now I'm bouncing between: "I need to fix them" and "I don't want to see them again."

Israel can have little a genocide as a treat
Channel 14 reporting that US called off an immediate strike: Hebrew Link

I have a young child that we are raising vegan. It’s been straightforward enough so far, although she is still little so we haven’t had to deal with other people feeding her yet. Diet-wise it’s fine, usual suspects like b12 obv and pregnancy and breastfeeding has higher micronutrient needs, but that’s not specific to veganism.
Main issue is the social aspect, thankfully our families have been supportive but kids tend to bring up a lot of underlying sentiments and emotions, and managing that could be tricky especially once our kid is a bit older.
The other minor thing is allergies. Research seems to point to introducing allergens early in life to reduce allergies forming. Seeing as she will be growing up in a world where exposure to milk, eggs fish etc is pretty common we’d like to reduce the likelihood of her having severe reactions to these, but obviously that means we would have to feed her animal products :/

It's definitely not a trend here, but when it does come up it's very technocratic and always in the context of well-paid email workers. It feels more like the tech and finance PMC pushing for job benefits on an individual level, not connected to class consciousness. The argument also makes more sense for those jobs: "we all know we aren't actually doing anything productive anyway, can we have Friday off? We'll just cancel a few timewasting meetings."

Does boeing have a really-bad-pneumonia^tm^ gun? Or so many whistleblowers that it's statistically likely that some will catch pneumonia?
