You’ve got the both

Sounds like hard sci fi… My absolute favourite! I will actually take this recommendation as soon as I’ve finished Every Version of You by Grace Chan (which I also recommend btw)

You can’t do it unless you’re wearing revealing bondage gear and a ball gag. Your kinks become the story instead of your superpower.

But special relativity still applies. So you can only do this by traveling at nearly the speed of light away from or towards your target. Travelling this fast is a separate power with separate side effects, and you don’t have it.

You have ADHD

I think it’s 50-50, because the Chinese l sound is pronounced with the tongue in the position somewhere between the Latin r and l sounds. So it’s just as likely to be heard as a “wrong” L or a “wrong” R.
The fun part is that the tropes stick to our own way of pronouncing the letter (r becomes l or vice versa) instead of attempting to pronounce the Chinese sound correctly…

Releasing the hostages won’t stop anything. The IDF was headshotting children before October 7th.

According to this, Hamas rejected proposition by Israel on march 1. Which then triggered Israel.

Seventeen days later? I don’t think you can call that a “trigger”

Fact is, Israel has been violating the ceasefire since the beginning according to the reports I’ve been reading.

Hamas shouldn’t even have the hostages, but stealing a few hundred people is nothing compared to the way Israel bullies Gaza. Now they’ve got the hostages, they’ve lost any moral high ground anyway, so they’re going to use them to the best tactical, strategic and diplomatic advantage they can. It’s the smart thing to do. It’s not the right thing to do, but I think everyone lost all hope of either side doing something right a long time ago.

Well you’ve used the qualifier “adequate”, which means there’s an undefined set of criteria for bargaining that you deem acceptable. However there was until three days ago a ceasefire in place. A ceasefire by its existence proves that some bargaining has been done.
There were no provisions in the ceasefire that allowed Israel to attack under the conditions in which they did. An unconditional and complete release of hostages by 18/03/2025 was not one of the conditions imposed upon Hamas. Israel contravened the ceasefire. Therefore by giving the green light, the arbiter was violently remiss in his duties to uphold it impartially.
No idea where you get your news, but if you look at multiple sources from the time the ceasefire was signed (mid January), you’ll see the terms of the ceasefire, and you’ll see that Hamas did not break them.

The conversation is about American politics, because American politicians are illegally sending these men to El Salvador.

I’m not a Dyson sphere. But what do either of these items have to do with our conversation?

Absolutely they should give up their only bargaining chip. That will leave them in a stronger position, obviously, as they will be literally decimated -but- they can then complain about how ruthlessly they were destroyed. I’m sure the arbiter will just put everything back as it was before any of this mess even happened.

Especially since the arbiter is one Donald J. Trump, a Colossus of a man with an immaculate reputation for fairness, and a knack for both resurrecting eradicated families and magically repairing destroyed infrastructure with a flick of his wand. Yes, release the hostages unconditionally, I’m sure it’ll just work out for you if you, I dunno, pray hard enough. (But not like that, though. We don’t recognise that kind of prayer)

Is that your stance on immigration then? Clowns in wrong car? Because that’s a shit stance on immigration that is.

Have a read of the article old bean. They are being sent to El Salvador from the US, in violation of any number of US laws, including the big one, the Constitution of the USA.

But they’re innocent until there’s proof of guilt. Sending people to forced labour encampments because of their tattoos is just a different nazi move.

Did you catch the words “without proof”, and “without due process” in the OP? It would appear that these people pictured are innocent.

Why not put that on the sign then instead of some vague, unrelated bollocks that doesn’t justify the removal? If that’s the case then I feel the wording on the sign is borderline dishonest.

I read this in Ben Shapiro’s voice

Aww, did someone get sad sad when their favourite christofascist caught the bad words on teh interwebs? It’s ok booboo, Benny is still here and he’s still making all the lady parts dwy. Don’t you listen to the naughty haters!
