"Israeli settlers attack foreign volunteers in the West Bank" [ < 1 min]

Quote by MEE:
"Jul 21, 2024
Foreign volunteers of the International Solidarity Movement were being treated in Nablus' Rafidia hospital after being wounded from an attack by Israeli settlers in the occupied West Bank on Sunday, days after the International Court of Justice ruled Israeli occupation “unlawful”."

I think that it is time for UN peacekeepers to be sent into #Gaza and the West Bank. There needs to be a reevaluation of relations between Israel and the West, that includes a halt on all funding and weapon shipments until certain humanitarian milestones are reached.

I think they would look a bit silly [UN] when the main bully in the conflict [Isr] is being supported by unlimited and superior arms by the main superpower [US]. Uptil now the blue UN flag offered no protection at all, more like a target.
The only way out seems to me that, a cease fire is proclaimed, US stops delivering weapons of any sort and Netanyahu is ousted by the Israeli people. Until then everybody else is powerless, I'm afraid.
Thx for your reaction. 🙏

Anti zionist Jewish activist Rich Siegel explains his journey in leaving Zionism and how he became a Pro-Palestinian activist.

Rich Siegel is a musician and activist. Raised in what he calls “the cult of atheistic Zionism posing as Judaism”, in his youth Rich was very involved as a supporter of Israel, notably as a teenage Zionist youth group president.

He then lived in Israel in his 20’s working as a pianist in a luxury hotel.

Big Business wants to literally own the law -- by copyrighting and restricting access to what the law says.

This sounds like satire of modern America, but it's a dead serious proposal that Congress may pass for its corporate benefactors.

You can help stop this outrageous power/money grab.

Streetart. A small cat and a mouse (named Eugene) were painted with chalk on a concrete sidewalk next to stores. The expansion joints were integrated into the picture. The orange and beige cat balances on the line next to the mouse in the green T-shirt. The mouse rests his arms on his hips and looks at the cat.

With the world and media focused on Olympic games, Gaza genocide and suffering of up to 2 million people will go unnoticed even more.


Israel has intensified it barbaric attacks against Palestinians in Gaza and occupied west bank, despite ICC ruling and calls from ever growing list of countries for end of the assaulta and bombings of defenceless Palestinian civilians.

#Saturn at the #Moon's Edge

Saturn, visible before midnight, was recently occulted by the Moon for about an hour in parts of Asia and Africa. This telescopic image from Nanjing, China captures Saturn moments before it vanished behind the Moon's Glushko crater—though Saturn is actually 1.4 billion km away, far beyond the Moon's 400 thousand km.

My thinking is, what's to stop Mastodon social from becoming another Facebook or Twitter? Especially if it becomes to large?

Also because of how unmoderated the first server has become, I've been in a predictamate.

I could defederate, but it makes a lot of people I do want to keep it touch with get cut off.

I know you all like hidden gems.

Let’s be honest, though. That term gets abused a lot. Too often, popular games get labelled as hidden gems. So for the purposes of clarity, let’s define a hidden gem as a game you probably haven’t played.

When I say probably, I mean that it is extremely unlikely that you have heard of it.

And I think Tiny and Big: Grandpa’s Leftovers ticks that box.

This was an indie game that came out in 2012, and it was exclusive to PC. While it did get a physical release, from what I can tell, it was only issued in Germany. It is very unlikely you will encounter Tiny and Big in the wild.

For an indie game – made by two people, no less – this is as ambitious as it gets. Tiny and Big is no retro-style game with pixel art sprites. It is a full-fledged 3D platformer. Granted, 3D platformers made by indie studios isn’t such a big deal nowadays. But in the early 2010s, few developers were trying this.

But if being an indie-made 3D platformer doesn’t impress you, how about this: Tiny and Big was made with an in-house game engine. It is called the Scape engine, it’s been in continuous development since 2002, and it looks beautiful.

No game engine is anything without great art, and Tiny and Big delivers in spades. This game truly has a unique look, and this is because both developers are professional animators and comic book artists. Thus, while many old games really look their age, Tiny and Big looks as fresh now as it was upon release.

The wonders don’t stop there. Tiny and Big has one of the best video game soundtracks I’ve ever heard. I’m not saying this lightly. The whole game is a quirky mix of jazz, latin, and punk fusion. It is a mood. It is so good that I often find myself playing this game just to hear the soundtrack.

What about the story? The main conceit is ridiculous, of course. You are a nerdy inventor. Someone has stolen your grandpa’s underwear, and you must get it back. I’m won’t go into more detail but the whole narrative is hilarious, and I chuckled more than once.

The game mechanics are truly unique but what really stands out to me is this: you use a laser to cut your own platforms. When you’re at an impasse, you have to study your landscape, find the perfect angle for a cut so you can get from point A to point B. Seriously, how bloody cool is that?

Tiny and Big also runs beautifully on the Steam Deck. While I’ve owned this game for eight years, I must say that playing this with a handheld – suitably on a front porch with a beer in hand – is the best darn way to experience this game. No tweaks needed, it just works!

Black Pants Studio developed Tiny and Big. Other games they’ve made are About Love, Hate, and the other ones and On Rusty Trails.

Obviously, I recommend this game. I have nothing but good things to say about it. And I’m not the only one who things so. On Steam, Tiny and Big has a 92% positive rating.

On both Steam and GOG.com, Tiny and Big: Grandpa’s Leftovers sells for C$15.49. I believe it’s well worth it.
