As someone that loves going into an office, I wish they let people who didn’t stay at home.
I miss the aspect of the pandemic where people were freer to stay home if they chose, and the roads were so much emptier. It’s better for people to work how they’d like to, it’s better for me trying not to spend an hour commuting, and it’s better for the Earth to have fewer people burning carbon twice a day.

“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it.”
Sadly, it seems like people are remembering the past and eagerly trying to resuscitate it. I’m worried about the next decade in Europe
If it was the NFL season, some conservative player would take a knee in protest.
Netanyahu specifically had a very clear policy of keeping Hamas in power and also of trying to contain Hamas, because Hamas is a very good excuse for Israel to continue on its path of settlement, expansion, occupation, and rejection of a Palestinian state.
As long as Hamas is there, Israel doesn’t have to get into any kind of peace process, any kind of serious political negotiation. It doesn’t have to take the Palestinian demands for a state, for liberation, for rights as seriously. Even if we assume that Netanyahu is committed to getting rid of Hamas, he has an interest in staying in power now, and the best way to stay in power is to keep the war going on and on.
BB and his whole batch of right wing cabinet members has got to go.
Oh boy, more ‘20s vibes from Europe
It’s also a war crime, for those counting at home:
Intentionally directing attacks against personnel, installations, material, units or vehicles involved in a humanitarian assistance
UN, these are clearly materials involved in humanitarian assistance.
“My right, my wife’s, my children’s, to roam the roads of Judea and Samaria are more important than the right of movement of the Arabs," said Mr Ben Gvir, using a biblical term for the West Bank.
He then addressed Mohammad Magadli, an Arab Israeli journalist in the studio, saying: “Sorry Mohammad, but this is the reality, that’s the truth. My right for life comes before their right to movement.”
BBC. He has a number of repugnant views. There won’t be peace until BB’s cabinet is out of power.
They should go with XX
At some point after 27 September, the CIA had added to its X profile page a link - https://t.me/securelycontactingcia - to its Telegram channel containing information about contacting the organisation on the dark net and through other secretive means.
The channel said, in Russian: “Our global mission demands that individuals be able to reach out to CIA securely from anywhere,” while warning potential recruits to “be wary of any channels that claim to represent the CIA”.
But a flaw in how X displays some links meant the full web address had been truncated to https://t.me/securelycont - an unused Telegram username.
As soon as Mr McSheehan noticed the issue, he registered the username so anyone clicking on the link was directed to his own channel, which warned them not to share any secret or sensitive information.
It’s high time for any US government agencies to leave Twitter

North Korea’s still riding that high after supplying the Russians with weapons. They haven’t felt this important since Kim and Trump had their little lover’s spat in the last term.
In the eternal worlds of JoJo, it’s just too little too late.
