Yes, which the article does not say they’ve failed to do. In fact, the article says that the videos submitted as evidence seem to support its legal use not in Gaza, but near Lebanon, and that Human Rights Watch submitted no videos at all showing white phosphorus in Gaza.

The videos attached to the claim show it being used for smokescreens, which Reuters comments is legal.

Perhaps not the whole world, but I’m many/most countries, the larger structures, like government and business, absolutely are anti-intellectual. Nice to have an academic friend group, but that doesn’t change the fact that capitalism makes education less accessible in order to rely on an undereducated workforce, and then politicians push it even further for the sake of easy control.

While interest rates stay high, so will returns on money market fund investments. A simple investment account (likely available from your current bank) with everything put into a good MMF should bring 4+% right now, and is less likely to have withdrawal frequency limits and definitely won’t have a term length like CDs.

At Chase, they’ve got a solid MMF option that’s been over 4% for a few months and has same day liquidity, meaning it’s basically cash even though it’s getting interest. I think it’s the lowest risk, highest convenience option currently.

A big part of that decision is honestly that we live in a very old house, and a few times we have needed to buy new appliances or pay $10k+ in a ≤24hr. emergency, so we try to keep roughly that amount as liquid as possible. Since that’s earning zero and the MMF is nearly as liquid as savings, we just keep all the rest in the higher-interest options, and none at all in a traditional savings account. It’s just been the most convenient and highest yield, lowest risk, most easily liquidated option, with the ease of liquidity cutting minimally into returns while MMF rates are so high.

I personally keep like 4 weeks cash in a checking account, some traditionally invested that I don’t plan to touch for many years, and everything else (12+ months at this point) in an investment account at the same bank as my checking, but exclusively invested in a money market fund with same day liquidity. MMFs are earning around 4+% while fed interest rates are so high, and being able to sell and transfer to my checking in a single day feels like it’s basically liquid already.

Since that’s the case, I don’t want any more than necessary sitting in an account earning 1% or less, just doesn’t feel like that much of a difference between investments that can be liquid in 2 hours vs. savings, but my bank is great about quick investment selling and transferring.

I use a chamois cloth, seems to pick up oil/smudges even better that microfiber and need less washing. Also super easy to wash when it does need it. I basically just cut a dollar bill sized section off a natural off-brand sham-wow and it works better than anything else I’ve used

Champion can technically also refer to a notable advocate for something, like a “champion of human rights,” or even as a verb in the same way, “we champion diversity here at Tech Corp Z” etc.

Yeah that seems bad lol. I feel like there has to be an option in between $200(creami) and $7000(pacojet) that can avoid chunks of plastic though

Why? Not challenging, just wondering what the pacojet does that other machines can’t

Tbf you don’t know what they’re doing in addition to this. I’d get this comment on facebook or somewhere that you know the poster, but for all we know, Izzent is actually out there marching and more.

No way, never. That’s just not who I am.

A “little bit” doesn’t begin to cover it…

I think he probably meant laserdiscs
