I take Magnesium Citrate because I get frequent foot cramps, and it helps reduce them a little. Foot cramps aren’t life threatening besides i guess the small increase in risk when it occasionally happens while driving.

But they’re certainly annoying.

And the timespan of the increased cost of everything.

Since the pandemic, construction ply more than tripled in price and isn’t going down.

That’s insane. Income can’t keep up with that.

Ohh look. It’s the guy that turns every news/politics article into a “both sides” argument to try to specifically disenfranchise left voters, and is mysteriously silent in all those articles quoting Trump saying he’ll enable both Russia and Isreal in their genocides.

Don’t fall for his crap. He’s only here to point fingers at Dems, never Republicans.

He’s here to help Trump get elected.

He is either part of the Russian / Isreali propaganda he’s trying to frame as bad here, or a useful idiot that has bought into said propaganda.

Yeah. That’s their intent. But they really don’t know for sure that their stunt won’t have some completely unexpected effect. Some slow reaction with that specific kind of stone that only matters if the powder gets deep into some cracks for 200 years or whatever. Or attracts stone eating bacteria of some sort.

The point is that they dont know what they dont know. Every time they pull one of these stunts, they are introducing the risk of irrevocable damage to historically significant objects that should be left to future generations.

Stop fucking around with human history. Stone Henge is a world wonder.

Many many times. Because I boxed. Nothing more fun than being punched in the face under the right conditions.

The tendency to make Perfect the enemy of Good.

It’s a tired theme here on Lemmy, particularly WRT Gaza, and particularly in criticism of Biden’s policy towards Isreal.

And what other conclusion is there to your answers?

Me: How would YOU put food into Palestinian hands?

You: Stop sending aid to Isreal.

Me: How does that put food in Palestinian hands?

You: Aid trucks

You can’t be dense enough to believe that if the US stops sending Isreal aid, that suddenly Isreal will suddenly magically be completely disarmed, and aid trucks will suddenly be able to move freely. Aid trucks aren’t even on the table.

And how exactly will that put food in the hands of the starving Palestinians?

Again with the “if it’s not perfect, it’s not worth doing” bullshit I’m so tired of hearing about this conflict.

What’s your solution, then? Overnight peace in the middle east?

Modular military engineering materials are both obscenely expensive, and temporary. They are meant as a bandaid to quickly solve transportation problems to enable logistics.

Also, being modular, they can be replaced easily and quickly.

If you want a hardy lifetime dock, you’re going to need months to years under ideal circumstances. And then Isreal could “accidentally” blow it up with a “rogue” strike, and there would be no option but to scrap the whole thing. Because most permanent docks aren’t meant to handle military strikes.

But yeah, let’s just ignore that the building constraints around this are just about the worst case imaginable. Let’s just keep whining about how a solution isn’t perfect and therefore worthless like all the other Leftist comments on Lemmy

It’s almost like they had to make compromises because their options were limited by materials, time, and access to the site.
