No Help and Few Options for Travelers Stranded by Mideast Conflict

One woman who called the State Department helpline looking for help said they told her to "stop ranting and raving" and hung up on her.

Another woman said they asked her how to spell Oman.

I love habeneros, I wish you saw them used more often. My issue with jalapeños as someone who finds them bitter and not at all spicy is how ubiquitous they are, as if there was a global meeting and everyone decided they'd be shorthand for spicy on menus.

I've finally done it, I've found my people www.reddit.com/r/spicy/comm...

I have absolutely no idea why I find this so funny.

Oof that's a question, iirc she was a defender but I can't remember where on the backline

I don't remember much of the Fast Show, save for a Scorchio, as I was pretty young when it aired but for some reason, this Charlie Higson character has stuck with me

War for the entertainment of it all

"He's NOT a nazi, but he does have one lil' thing in common..."
You'd think (hope?!) it would be disqualifying

Hey that’s about the cost of the SSI Restoration Act, which would cut recipient poverty by 60%, eliminate marriage penalties, and modernize draconian asset limits.

I think about this take more often than I'd like to.

It was after the Euro 2017 final and I reflexively said no as I don't drink beer, but immediately regretted it

A player once offered me a beer in a mixed zone after a major final

Where there's a will....

as a deliberate crossover, fantastic; as error, c'mon man

The curling stone (also sometimes called a rock in North America) is made of granite and is specified by the World Curling Federation, which requires a weight between 17.24 and 19.96 kilograms (38 and 44 lb)

I've stubbed my toes on a lot of things, but they'd probably turn to dust within a year around a curling stone

"Hey Kurds, it's the United States. Remember us, from all the betrayals? Anyhoo, would love it if you all could march into this thresher for us. Let us know."

What would I do with it? Put it on a shelf like a tchotchke and look it at every now and then.
I'd also, ideally, wait until the end of the curling programme as to not cause any distruption.

Would like to go on record and state that I am, categorically, not a klepto - even if my lift has been littered with instances of liberating chopsticks and spoons I deem interesting from eateries around the world - however, if presented with the opportunity, I would absolutely pilfer a curling stone

Don't know if she's quite what you're looking for but, Khalida Popal

1 Inquiry for New York Times Good afternoon, My name is [REDACTED] and l am a reporter for the New York Times. I am researching how much money the Palestinian diaspora community has sent to support Gazan families since the war in Gaza began. Does your team track this figure? I really appreciate it. With gratitude, [REDACTED]

Palestine Diaspora Movement Hello [REDACTED] We do not collaborate with The New York Times. Your email asks about money sent to Gazan families "since the war in Gaza began." Let us first correct the premise. This is not a war. It is a genocide. Calling it a war is part of the problem. It obscures the reality of a colonized people being massacred by a military machine backed by the United States and defended, sanitized, and rhetorically softened by institutions like yours. The New York Times has spent far too long parroting Zionist propaganda and laundering Israeli state narratives while Palestinians bury their dead. That kind of coverage does not merely misinform. It helps create the political climate in which Palestinian slaughter becomes explainable, defensible, and forgettable. So no, we will not be sharing any figures, internal data, or community information with a paper that has so thoroughly damaged its credibility on Palestine. Quite frankly, we would rather chew jeans than help The New York Times extract from our community while continuing to fail it. Do not contact us again for this purpose, The Palestine Diaspora Movement Team

I did not make it to the science museum yesterday, and as my windpipe feels like someone’s got it in a death grip (psychosomatic), it certainly feels like I will not be make it out tonight either.

There is always tomorrow (until the inevitable heat death of the universe).

Tonight in 1959, “The Twilight Zone” episode “The Monsters Are Due On Maple Street” (season 1, episode 22)—Rod Serling’s taut and unforgettable Cold War parable depicting the societal consequences of irrational fear and paranoia of communist infiltration—was broadcast for the first time on CBS.
