Rebecca Cooke - "I do support Iron Dome funding..."

Don't be fooled by the framing of this statement. Yes, the Iron Dome provides protection. It provides protection from retaliation for the human rights atrocities and war crimes Israel commits in the region. The Iron Dome is the shield that emboldens the Netanyahu government.

Funding the Iron Dome is not just complacency, but participation in a genocide.

The full forum can be found here, with the Israel discussion starting at roughly 01:03:00

Is this a Wisconsin Approved dinner? And yes, I enjoyed this meal a lot.

Ignore the bad beer pour and ignore the fact neither the beer nor the cheese comes from wisconsin because I am on the other side of the globe. Cheese is 600 grams.

Kayaking

Hello all ☺️

I am planning a day trip to Wisconsin at the end of next month and I am looking for recommendations on places to kayak.
I know how to swim but my boyfriend does not.
I have only kayaked once and it was in very shallow water in Tennessee.

If anyone has any recommendations on beginner friendly kayaking experiences I would greatly appreciate it.

Thanks in advance !

Edit: I am looking in the south central or north eastern area

I tried to make LARP combat look as cool as it feels [Dystopia Rising Live: Wisconsin]

I've recently taken on the position of marketing for my branch of Dystopia Rising, and part of that has been trying to put together shorts and reels for Instagram. Something I've noticed is that I can film a fight for 30-60 minutes and I'm lucky if 10% of it is usable and looks cool. Most of our LARP combat (lightest touch) is pretty uninteresting to watch even though it feels super intense and fun in the moment because of the fiction and rules around the fighting.

Usually good footage only in small 5-10 second clips, so I tried to cut them together, replace all the audio and add effects or foli from other clips that fit the vibe. I think it's pretty good for my first go. Next I'd like to try and make something to get across the appeal of LARP to theater folks or more story-focused roleplayers since that is also a large group of people I think would love the hobby. Anybody have ideas or examples?
