una stazione sciistica per #upperclasses che costa 4,7 miliardi, incluso lago artificiale con diga a barca, a soli 300 km da #Gaza City

mentre sulle sponde dello stesso mare gli #Houthi si divertono a sparare ai mercantili dopo aver sbaragliato in ciabatte l'alleato del Regno, ed aver provocato "la piu grande crisi umanitaria del mondo", un'epidemia di colera, la distruzione di Sana'a patrimonio UNESCO.

#ClarenceThomas & bottomless self-pity of #upperclasses Paul Campos interpreted its gist as: “It’s just fundamentally unreasonable to expect a SCOTUS justice 2 scrape along on nearly $300K per yr in #salary w/out expecting that he’ll accept a petit cadeau or 30 from #billionaires who just can’t stand sight of so much human suffering.” How much > would we have to pay Thomas to get him to stop taking free yacht voyages, private flights to private clubs from rich “friends”? https://www.latimes.com/business/story/2024-01-10/why-clarence-thomas-cant-make-ends-meet-on-285000-a-year-and-other-travails-of-the-rich

from the introduction: "This book consists of an alphabetical name listing of more than 22,700 wills filed in the District of Colombia Orphans' Court (Probate Court) during the period 1801-1920. [...] The vast bulk of the wills, of course, were created by the local middle and upper class property owners to ensure that the distribution of their possessions was carried out according to their wishes."
