"These actions constitute the deliberate commission of the most heinous crimes of international concern. Indifference to this ongoing and extreme injustice will only further darken the future of humanity by jeopardising the shared values upon which our global community stands,” he wrote in a post on social media.

Pir Hossein Kolivand, the head of the Iranian Red Crescent Society, wrote a letter publicised late on Sunday to the president of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), demanding an explicit condemnation of attacks impacting children and educational and medical centres.

I'm not sure what other lemmy community might be fitting for this post, so here I go. Feel free to redirect me if you know of another community that might have an answer for me.

Starting this year, my whole kitchen starts smelling really weird whenever I turn on my electric oven.

It's not inside the oven. I just turned it on, and when the smell was starting to appear, I opened the oven and smelled the warm air. It was smelling as normal, so it's something outside the oven.

It's an odd smell that doesn't smell like anything I've ever experienced. I've talked about this with a friend, they suggested it might be the insulation around the oven that might contain some kind of bacterial growth. My washing machine did flood my kitchen a bit between the years, but since the oven has a drawer underneath, I'd be surprised if the insulation got wet somehow. Could the insulation get bacterial growth from just high air humidity for a few days?

Are there things I could to to test whether the air is safe to breathe? The smell just smells... off. It's not a sharp smell, but I do feel like I get a slight headache whenever I smell it, which might just be placebo because of the deeply unpleasant smell.

I'm at a loss as to what I can do short of replacing the whole thing, which seems overkill.

As the Israeli/American war on Iran rages on, it becomes clearer and clearer that the tactics used in Gaza are being repeated in Iran, with the U.S. and Israel targeting civilians and civilian infrastructure in an attempt to destroy Iran as a society.

The most horrific example has been the America/Israeli strike that hit a girls’ school in Minab, killing 165 children.

But this is not the only example of Israel and U.S. attacks targeting Iranian civilians and civilian infrastructure.

Drop Site News reported that when “Dozens of teenage girls were attending their regular training sessions of volleyball, basketball, and gymnastics in the main sports hall in Lamerd, a city near the Persian coast,” “a missile slammed into the building at 5 p.m. on Saturday” which, “killed at least 18 civilians and wounded scores more.”.

Drop Site noted that this strike “came hours after” the aforementioned strike at the girls’ school in Minab.

Today, the targeting of civilians in Iran by the U.S. and Israel has continued...

Microsoft’s aggressive AI push in Windows 11 through 2025 brought upon themselves the title Microslop. Unfortunately for the company, it’s everywhere on social media, and there isn’t a way to stop the spread, unless, of course, it’s their own Discord server.

Just for fun: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/microslop/

The reality in Gaza. - JVP (www.jewishvoiceforpeace.org)

from The Wire [online publication of Jewish Voice For Peace JVP in USA]

For over 28 months, the Israeli military has not only murdered Palestinians en masse, but also systematically destroyed and restricted Palestinians’ access to their homes, to clean water, food, medical care, schools, Internet, fuel, and electricity. These are all tactics of genocide: destroying the conditions required for life.

Despite the so-called “ceasefire,” the Israeli government is continuing to use the creation of unlivable conditions as a tool of ethnic cleansing and genocide. Right now, the reality for millions of Palestinians in Gaza is one of decimated homes and unlivable conditions, trapped between a militarized border and open gunfire.
