Al Jazeera condemns Israeli government decision to shut down channel

Indeed, the worst kind of censorship. This also comes after Israel has expelled reporters of the BBC and other companies from Gaza. This has worked, as it's dramatically reduced the amount of news air time for the attrocities in Gaza. Meanwhile, there are numerous daily casualties.

Great to see this, as I normally see caves on social media when spelunkers have been trapped in them.

Excellent points. The Washington Examiner is also quite obviously extremely biased.

They're equal in the polls, nationally, which is baffling at several levels: https://projects.fivethirtyeight.com/polls/president-general/

Very interesting, though I think Wilson should have removed the track that is at human 'normal' speed, so that we could hear his arrangement

This was sampled, arranged and manipulated with the help of keyboard by Jim Wilson in 1992 & called God's Chorus of Chrickets: https://soundcloud.com/acornavi/jim-wilson-crickets-audio

Tom Waits (on Jim Wilson): "Wilson, he's always playing with time. I heard a recording recently of crickets slowed way down. It sounds like a choir, it sounds like angel music. Something sparkling, celestial with full harmony and bass parts - you wouldn't believe it. It's like a sweeping chorus of heaven, and it's just slowed down, they didn't manipulate the tape at all. So I think when Wilson slows people down, it gives you a chance to watch them moving through space. And there's something to be said for slowing down the world."

Here's the debunking of Wilson's composition: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iFFtqEyfu_o

Agreed. This 'I love turtles' post is however from a depressed Saiditor, doesn't make sense and only got three other votes. So not much harm done, IMO.

fascinating experiments

Of course, you're pro-genocide

Sorry - as discussed, I think you bring up issues that interest Saiditors, but you propose them with claims that are broad generalizations. If you simplify the questions, there might be more engagement (among the 2 dozen of us, however).

You never have anything meaningful or interesting or that's accurate to say. Your life must be shit.
