This only refers to the Leviticus verse, not the NT one that I provided. Also, going by the latin text seems like a methodological mistake to me, since the original old testament was in Hebrew and the first translation in Greek.

Dunno about that. In the new testament, at least, it is said that (male) homosexuals will not inherit god's kingdom.

Did they retaliate after Iran's attack some months ago? I think not, but my memory is foggy

then Israel is getting levelled
By who? The Iranian remnants? Genuine question. Afaik Egypt and SA are friendly to israel, I can see them backing down in the name of de-escalation.
Also, what if instead of a nuke it's a missile barrage?

The attack is obviously deserved but I'm scared about what happens next.
If israel strikes back, the Iran will also do so. Maybe this is the best course of action, if it leads to israel losing, but if it doesn't, or it leads to ww3...
On the other hand, if israel does nothing, then maybe Iran will consider this a job well done and back down while the idf stays in Lebanon.

Where there demonstrations every day for 455 days in HK? If not then the arrests/day statistic is disingenuous

Why? The "glow" meme by itself is not racist, and a lot of people aren't even aware of it's origin?Why shouldn't we use the version of the meme that isn't racist?

I am also certain these apps have hidden systems designed to work against most people.It's not the first time I give a dating app a try. In my past attempts, I always got a few matches in the first few days, then nothing. I believe the app matched me with people that liked everyone (or at least did so at that time) in order to give an initial 'high' that I would attempt to chase by paying.

Installed a dating app and got no matches, I know this is a somewhat frequent experience for men but it still feels bad

It could be that he took HGH and then didn't train, so he didn't get muscular but still suffered the palumboism side effect. It would be a stupid thing to do, but then again it fits with the persona he's displaying

so you came up with your own term to cover your mistake?

That's not how the square root is defined.
You're confusing "square root of 100" with "the answer to x^2 = 100". These are different things.

This may be a trivial question, but did you just ask friends to take a picture of you while you were hanging out? I don't upload pics to social media so I'm kinda embarrassed to do that, but I suppose there's no other way?
As for pics of doing stuff, I wish I did "photogenic" stuff :/ Closest I can think of is a pic of me reading a book, is that pretentious?

any tips for dating app profiles (pictures, bio etc)?
I'd like something that goes over the American interference in the region, debunks myths about the Shah's government (for example, I've seen people here mention that only the wealthy dressed like westerners) and explains how the Iranian revolution happened. Is Targeting Iran any good? I know Chomsky has some shit takes but he usually does a good job dismantling US narrative & propaganda
If someone doesn't know what I'm referring to, 996 refers to working 9am-9pm 6 days a week, which some Chinese companies enforce (or enforced) on their employee. Jack Ma, for example, has spoken in support of it. Wikipedia says that the Supreme People's Court deemed it illegal in 2021. I don't know about China's court system in detail (or any country's, really) but my understanding is that cases go to a higher court if someone successfully appeals the decision of a lower court. Shouldn't something like a 72 hour workweek be stricken down before reaching the supreme court? I've heard that Huawei still enforces this, for example. I don't have sources because I've heard it from someone with Chinese acquaintances, so some fact-checking is appreciated.

Do you play any games on your smartphone? I'm looking for single player ones to kill some time when waiting for the bus. Ideally they should work without an internet connection, so I can disable network access for that app and play without ads. I'm currently playing Words of Wonder, but it gets repetitive after a while.
In The State and Revolution, Lenin (and Engels, whom he is quoting) disagrees with communists using "People's State" or "Free People's State" as a programme goal. If I understand correctly, this is because a) it creates a misunderstanding on the final phase of communism, which is stateless and b) it goes against the Marxist understanding of states as forces of oppression. On the other hand, it seems logical to me that a state following the dictatorship of the proletariat principle would call itself "People's", since the proletariat is the majority. So, I've been wondering if the existing socialist states have an official line about this, or if there's a consensus amongst M-Ls.
