I pay a total of $6/month for an indexer an usenet service, and $8 for a VPN. all other media, including games, I get through that.

I imagine what they earn depends on how many ad impressions they get.

no don't ruin the romance for me 😭

maybe I'm sappy, but the idea of trolley cars seems romantic to me. the little ding ding of their bell as they roll along. I've never heard of anyone having a bad day while taking a trolley ride.

yeah that would be kinda funny too

I mean, it would be pretty based if he did say it, but this seems quite a bit less charismatic than he usually is. and I also could not find any story matching this quote when I searched.

did he actually say this tho?

or you found the most passive aggressive AI chatbot. I hope it's the latter because it's funnier if you imagine the bot was mimicking sarcasm.

So your thought is

no, that isn't my thought at all. idk how you got confused, but I'm clearly saying states will do whatever they want so long as they think they can get away with it, and the legality or morality of doing something will never once factor into the decision.

Not intercepting the PMs plane and arresting him for the ICC warrant is also illegal under international law. Israel can't legally occupy the settlements that they do, that's a violation of international law. They can't bomb refugee camps, that's a violation of international law. They can't starve Palestinians intentionally, that's against international law. They can't refuse medical help to injured civilians or Hamas fighters who cannot fight anymore, that's against international law.

I'm assuming, as somebody quoting some random treaty to me, that you're a liberal who views laws and legality as the order that holds our world together. It must come as a real shock to you that no state actually gives a shit about what's legal, they only care about what they can get away with. Unless you can force your government to abide by a law, they can do whatever the fuck they want. That's the neat thing about laws, they don't mean shit unless the government in question decides to abide by them.
