  • 2 things to note: They want to deport him to Syria or Algeria and not to El Salvador so hopefully he remains free at least.

    The judge making this assessment is part of the executive branch and not a federal judge and made it on very literal terms (spineless and ethically bankrupt but not the final decision). Secretary of state said hes is a threat to US foreign policy in writing therefore he can be deported as the law states that he can be deported if the secretary of state says he is a threat to US foreign policy.


  • This is just straight up racist propaganda. No other way to describe it

    sabaya is straightforwardly associated with what we moderns call rape

    Absolutely factually incorrect. Sabaya is the plural of sabiye which means young woman/girl. The masculine form is sabi which means boy or shab for young man (not exactly symmetric like use of guy vs girl in english). Zero sexual connotation and used in everyday language in levantine arabic.





  • In the past I’ve had a different experience with OEM chargers dying on me and off brand ones surviving longer but that was in a place with frequent power cuts. In general your advice is probably best to follow but I’ve also used non-OEM replacements without any bad experiences for many different devices.







  • I think there is some value to being grateful if you’re in a reasonably good place. Personally, it helps me anchor myself and my emotions better as someone who constantly worries about something.

    The same reasoning behind not comparing yourself to others who have it way better than you still applies though. There will always be those who are much better off and those that are much worse off so it’s important not get carried away or feel like your problems are not worth worrying or complaining about.

    But I also know that whenever it’s brought up by other people it’s usually to say that your problems don’t matter which is why I’m saying it should be something personal. Mostly for basic things like being in good health, having access to food and shelter and not living in a warzone.
