Last night he had to use his brain. Today he had to read teleprompters and smile. They are both work, but one is much more automatic. Loss of cognition that comes with age isn't consistent, it ebbs and flows. We're going to see more of this, I hoped that we would see a sober recognition of these facts today outside of the speech he did not write. The admission felt like they were pasting over what happened instead of acknowledging that blood is in the water. Yeah go vote but it sure would be nice to have a President with cognition instead of these two geriatric fellas.

Milk of magnesia is a common first aid go-to in edit:those situations in my experience. Good to know.

The whole reason the Irish subsisted on potatoes was that the corned beef they were wage slave raising and producing was to be eaten only by English and French folks that could afford the extravagant costs. Another type of corned beef was here already in the US. It was the Jewish kosher corned beef that became synonymous with Irish American culture.

An interesting aside that you probably know: corned beef and cabbage is a distinctly Irish-American tradition. The Irish were economically forced to raise cattle for corned beef for British folks. Despite raising and curing the beef, they could not afford it and subsisted on potatoes. Britain's wealth and insatiable appetite for corned beef was so immense that those who made it could not afford the price. On the other hand, the reliance on potatoes for subsistence during this period as well as its outcome is well known.

apfelwoiSchoppen , to World News in Israel committing genocide in Gaza, new study concludes – Middle East Monitor
@apfelwoiSchoppen@lemmy.world avatar

Hasn't changed US foreign policy for decades, so yeah probably not. From arming to giving Israel protection in the UN, the US is all in on Palestinian genocide. The US does not recognize the jurisdiction of the ICC because the court could be used for "political reasons". This goes back to the creation of the ICC, which the Clinton admin helped to form but then vote against. Israel, Russia, Israel, China, Libya, and Qatar are the only countries who do not recognize the jurisdiction of the court. There is a through line on why they don't: it is because of what they have already done and continue to do that would levy charges at the court. In fact the US has the American Service Members Protection Act to make cooperation with the court next to impossible.

TL:DR; the US has been complicit in Palestinian genocide since Eisenhower.
