i'm a writer irl (can't say who because my agent would rightfully put me into a blender and press the button if i go and out myself as "balrogballs") and honestly the funniest and most humiliating incident of my life was the time my finished manuscript triggered a plagiarism flag with the publisher for two lines of prose in my literary fiction novel...

.... which was word for word similar to a paragraph in a certain explicit work on FFN starring elrond and his batsman from the hobbit films, aka that one elf that looked like he ate panic attacks for breakfast (i forget his name but it's Figwit II) where the lord of imladris bends said twink over his writing desk and gives him the battering ram treatment.

and if you think i had to sit in front of one if the biggest publishing companies in the world and admit that it was, in fact, me who wrote the fic where the lord of imladris bends said twink over his writing desk and gives him the battering ram treatment in order to avoid being wrongly flagged for plagiarism, you would be absolutely correct.

(yes they published the book)

Personally I thought it was a fair question

ICC has issued arrest warrants for Netanyahu and Gallant. nothing will come of it I'm sure except maybe US troops marching into the Hague

[omgellendean]

Probably everyone has heard by now about the "Hague Invasion Act", but apparently, this law mentions Israel among countries USA would protect from ICC "by any means necessary".

Formally, HIA prohibits military assistance to the government of a country that is a party to the International Criminal Court. However, there are exceptions:

Add to that USA specifically forbidding PA to ask or accept help from ICC as a condition for humanitarian aid, and you'll see just how much they value their Zionist colony.

Netanyahu and former Defence Minister Yoav Gallant were accused of “crimes against humanity and war crimes committed from at least 8 October 2023 until at least 20 May 2024”, a statement from the court said on Thursday.

There are “reasonable grounds” to believe that Gallant and Netanyahu “intentionally and knowingly deprived the civilian population in Gaza of objects indispensable to their survival, including food, water, and medicine and medical supplies, as well as fuel and electricity”, it said.[...]

the ICC said on Thursday that it had unanimously decided to reject Israel’s appeal over the court’s jurisdiction.

Every so often I think about how israelis had a literal music festival on the outskirts of Gaza and no one thought to question it at all. It pisses me off still that no one thinks that it's wrong for the prison guards and their family+friends to have a party right outside the prison they made.
