I wonder whether Iran can actually spare an outright war. There is clearly a lot of anti-government energy flowing in Iran, and that won't have been stamped out by their crackdown on it.
I wonder whether most everyday Iranians would support a war with Israel.
Granted, it's not likely Iran gets directly involved - they'll just drive their Hezbollah prop.
Yup, the Israeli State does not give a single shit about innocent Palestinians. They're quite happy to continue oppressing them, because when the oppressed 'suddenly' become radicalised and fight back it gives the Israeli State an excellent excuse to take more land and displace more Palestinians.
Israel is showing the world it's not trying to be an apartheid state, but a genocidal one.
So... Christianity has thought crimes?
Oh yeah. In all fairness, I'm sure Harry would happily let Kreacher be free if he wouldn't instantly go on snitch on them to Voldie & Co.
It probably wouldn't have been reported or shared at all, if she wasn't there.
Unsettling. 10/10
Quoting the total debt never makes much sense - right? Because the actual important figure is % of GDP.
Also, debt where you invest in your country is surely the best possible use - as opposed to spaffing public money to make your friends rich during Covid.
Who does Harry own?
Also, can Dumbledore own slaves if he's dead?
Hm. I'll push through to get to the sequel, seeing as that's what I was originally interested in.
As for Queens of the Wyrd... It's a direct mirror of Kings of the Wyld? Ha. I have been wanting to read more female POV by female authors, so I might give it a try if I end up enjoying the plot arc of Kings.
The analogy to a drug dealer is on point. They're relying on users being hooked on their dopamine outlet.
I'm trying to read Kings of the Wyld at the moment, because I picked up the sequel in a bookshop and liked the prose, so figured I should read the first book (obviously).
And... it's okay... but I can't help but feel it has this constant undertone of boomer/misogynistic/wife bad humour. I'm a third of the book through and I'm really not engaged with the stakes.
Have they considered that if they take away the red light district the rich fuckheads might not want to visit as much?
