  • Smotrich would be considered a terrorist pretty much anywhere else. He’s a huge bigoted piece of shit.

    According to former Shin Bet deputy chief Yitzhak Ilan, who interrogated him at the time, during the protests against the Israeli disengagement from Gaza, Smotrich was arrested in 2005 while in possession of 700 litres of gasoline on suspicion of participating in an attempt to blow up Ayalon Highway, a major arterial road. He was held in jail for three weeks but not charged after refusing to speak. This account was corroborated by Dvir Kariv, who was an agent with Shin Bet at the time.

    In 2006 he helped organize the “Beast Parade” as part of protests against a gay pride parade in Jerusalem, although he later admitted regret at the incident.

    He is co-founder of the NGO Regavim, which monitors and pursues legal action in the Israeli court system against constructions undertaken by Palestinians, Bedouins, and other Arabs in Israel and the West Bank without Israeli permits.

  • I actually shop for groceries way better when I’m hungry. If I’ve recently eaten, I have trouble imagining myself enjoying anything I’m going to buy, even if I eat it often. I’ve actually compared my hauls after shopping hungry vs shopping full: shopping on a full stomach my bags are noticeably emptier with less variety, and more unhealthy stuff. When shopping hungry I buy way more fruits, vegetables, some slightly adventurous ingredients, and in general much more interesting items that I’m more likely to enjoy in a few days.

    But to each their own, I think I’m the outlier here.
