I can’t believe they’re launching another wave! This is very encouraging. I really hope the tides are truly turning. Please please please open a humanitarian corridor.
Flotilla which Greta is member of and not Greta's flotilla
I commend ms. Thurnberg for turning her fame into something positive, but that hairstyle is slowly turning her into a Master of the Universe.
In Grade 6 we had a new girl in my school who I got on with really well. The cooler guys among us apparently thought she was dope too, and when I started dating her suddenly, one of them was like, "Congrats, bro. I didn't know ya had it in you!" I was on top of world.
Then one day shortly after, she showed up to school with this super tight, greasy, old lady perm. The kind that's like nearly flat to your head, that old women in the 90s would wear a clear plastic bag over. The thing looked bonkers. I spent the next couple of days trying to distance myself from her and that haircut, and found some petty reason to break up with her. She thought I was a total asshole (rightfully), but moved on. Years later I saw her again and that old lady cut was gone. She was doing way better than me.
Flash forward to my mid-twenties, I'm dating this other girl and she goes and gets a new haircut. Blonde dye job and everything. I can only describe the results as a genuine Dutch Boy (example below). But I had learned my lesson and I stuck it out. I wasn't going to make that same mistake over a haircut. A few weeks while later she fucked some greasy dude from Raleigh, North Carolina, and that was the end of that.
Gonzo commenting is best commenting. Kudos.
this tangent was a roller coaster
She does have the powar
Can we stop judging people looks all the time? It's like when people comment on how Elon Musk looks. He's more than bad looks, he's a terrible human being in his own right.
I'm judging nobody, my haircut looks like Ace Ventura got electrocuted after waking up.
"From the Israeli side, they have escalated their rhetoric against the flotilla over the past week, which they claim has ties to Hamas."
Just like they say everyone in Gaza has ties to Hamas, right?
It's crazy some people here on Lemmy a few weeks back were saying this was pointless.
This is always how big things happen. It just takes a few righteous people to change history, because others inevitably see their actions and join in.
