The U.S. will use its veto power against a Palestinian bid to be recognized as a member state of the United Nations during a vote at the Security Council expected to take place Thursday evening. Vedant Patel, principal deputy spokesperson for the State Department, described as premature an effort by the Palestinian Authority (PA) to gain member status at the U.N. He said there was not unanimity among the Security Council’s 15 members that the Palestinian Authority had met the criteria for membership, with unresolved questions over the governance of the Gaza Strip, where Israel is in a war to defeat and eliminate the controlling power, Hamas. “And for that reason, the United States is voting no on this proposed Security Council resolution,” Patel said.
Earlier it was revealed that the United States was secretly pressuring other members of the Security Council to shoot down a Palestinian state membership so the US wouldn't have to use its veto as that would lead to a wave of local and international criticism for Joe Biden.
Everyone gives Sherlock Holmes a hard time about being mean about Watson's writing, but honestly imagine you told your roommate "sure, you can write up an account of my work for the newspaper," thinking it would be like, about the murder, but then he publishes it and it's 90% about you, as a person, and it's a huge hit and now everyone in London knows that you hoard newspapers and do cocoaine when you're depressed. Because I think you'd be little miffed too.
Admittedly, something I’ve liked in the past couple of chapters is that even with an occasional barb or complaint thrown in, there’s been a surprising lack of hostility between Dazai and Chuuya.
Like, we’ve had crumbs of this — of them caring for each other and looking after each other — before but it’s been so consistent in the last few chapters and it feels so very in our faces as well, front and center.
Like, Chuuya keeps trying to almost console and reassure Dazai or at least help him figure out what’s wrong. Dazai’s never been as open or expressive, this chapter especially with him practically thinking out loud, that I can recall. Dazai’s showing behaviors that I don’t remember seeing before but fromChuuya’s words they’re habits of his.
They’re not constantly shooting insults or attacking each other (whether with words or physical moves). They’re basically just chilling as the danger is supposedly past (until Dazai got his revelation).
And I think it’s because they’re presumably completely alone for once.
They’re not in the Mafia base. They’re not in enemy territory with unconscious looks and their retrieval target close enough to possibly hear or see them if they wake up. They’re not stuck in a place surrounded by a dangerous ability or where the location of their allies is unknown, but could come across them at any time.
This might be the first time in the main manga where we can get a glimpse of what they’re like simply with each other.
And it’s really not so bad.
Bsd fandom be like- omg skk are so toxic, they hate each other, make each other worst, they are so bad for each other.
The skk in question-
They are literally annoying little toddler besties who like to annoy each other. They act like the other has cooties and then go and invade the others space like its a competition.

Dreams
@adrienagresteseptember2021

It wasn’t much of a task. They were supposed to write down their childhood dream for class.
But for some reason Adrien had still struggled with the task.
He watched a lot of old recordings and looked at his drawings and some pictures.
In the end, he was satisfied with the outcome of his research.
And Mme. Bustier was now asking everyone what their childhood dream was-is, it depends.
She started with Nino, logically.
“I wanted to be a bubble breathing dinosaur.”
Nino earned a few chuckles for that.
“What a nice dream, Nino. Adrien?”
“Oh, I always wanted to be what my parents want me to be and to make them proud of me.”
“How nice of you, but do you also have a childhood dream of what you wanted to be for yourself and not your parents?”
“I just want to be the perfect son for them and make them proud.”
“Alright. Marinette, what is your childhood dream?”
Adrien felt like he said something wrong, maybe he understood the task wrong.
“I dreamt of being the knitting fairy.”
“Well, you’re on a good way to become a sewing fairy. Alya?”
“I’m not sure miss, I can’t remember and neither can my family.”
“That’s alright, Alya, don’t worry. Ivan?”
“I wanted to have long and pretty hair like my mother.”
“Your hair may not be very long but it’s very pretty. Nathaniel, what about you?”
“I dreamed about being a comedian.”
No, he did understand the task right and he did as told.
“I have to say, some of your comics are pretty funny. Juleka?”
“Do I have to?”
“No, of course not. If you don’t feel comfortable sharing then that’s completely fine. Rose, do you want to share?”
“I wanted to be an angel because they help people like doctors or fairies.”
Maybe Mme Bustier didn’t like his answer, but he fulfilled the task.
Mme Bustier smiles sadly at that.
“You would’ve been the greatest angel. Max?”
“Roboter.”
“I hope building one is as good. Kim?”
“...”
“He fantasized about being a model.”
It was an interesting thought.
“I don’t know if this was you place to answer Alix, but your turn now.”
“I wanted to be the best at everything I want break every existing rule or boundary.”
“Then nothing much changed. Myléne?”
“I-i often pretended to be a plant.”
“What a beautiful dream. Okay, Chloé?”
“I wanted to be like my mommy.”
There’s it again! The same expression Mme Bustier had at his answer!
He knew Chloé and her mother didn’t have the best relationship so it was understandable.
But what is wrong with his answer?
He doesn’t have much time to dwell on it as the class broke out into laughter over Sabrina’s childhood dream wanting to be a Rock’n’Roll legend, not being able to imagine it.

For a week I embedded myself with Jewish Israeli nationalists who believe it’s a worthy cause and religious duty to block desperately needed humanitarian aid at the Gaza border. They enjoyed pastries with the military while confessing to war crimes and cheering for genocide.
