You might be crossing some stories there's the Samaritan woman at the well, which he has a conversation with a Samaritan woman and asks for help getting water from Jacob's Well. There's also the parable of the Good Samaritan, a story jesus created about a who stops and helps the person on the road beaten by robbers after 2 jewish people, a priest and a levite, pass the beaten man by, citing ritual cleanliness or thinking the guy is bait for more robbers.

Still your point stands about both being about treating everyone kindly regardless of nation or religion.

They're manufacturing reasons to start a conflict. Like the reason the Vietnam War started was because a Vietnamese fishing boat got too close to a US war ship which was seen as an attack, then the US war ships mistook a the sonar ping off a school of fish as an underwater attack and used that as justification to escalate a war with Vietnam.

Romulans are probably doing the same thing, they're using their cloaking tech to secretly parol much closer than they should be, and constantly looking for the Federation breaking the neutral zone rules to turn the interstellar community against the Federation. Basically they're itching for the Federation to throw the first real punch so the romulans look like the victims.

The restaurant depot near me requires membership to shop there. And their website requires it too.

Piccolo from Dragonball Z is probably the best description of aura farming. Being effortlessly but conspicuously cool.

I've long since ditched the grocery store stuff and have gone with the restaurant quality giant rolls with a sliding cutter built right into them. If someone you know has a membership to a Restaurant Depot or similar, definitely ask them. One of those rolls will last years in a home kitchen and I basically never deal with the plastic not tearing right.

You can usually find them under food service cling film.

Yeah, the state of Israel is doing the same thing today, but still, my point was about history of "buildings on land = respect for development" is nonsensical in how early geopolitics worked. I'll admit pointing to the Nazis, while they clearly showed the same disregard of buildings meaning development so don't invade, did not predate European colonialism in the Americas.

Tbf, putting buildings up signalling use didn't suddenly cause conquerors of any geographic to suddenly respect that the land was already in use. See: Roman Imperial Expansionism, Mongol Empire, numerous Chinese dynasties, the Aztecs, the Nazis, the British Empire, the East India Companies, the Zulu, Mali (well Mansa Musa basically destabilized gold wherever he went).

Fun fact, there was an actual Michael Hundt who wrote fencing manuals right near the end of the medieval period into the Renaissance.

The jump bars dont have any feet to keep them upright and no amount of "weebles wobble bu they never fall over" weight in the bottom is going to keep them upright, the 3rd cone doesnt get touched and falls over and then warps to face a completely different direction, the 5th cone lands rolls around after being knocked over despite the square base that should prevent it from rolling. The cones knock over just by the dog walking by.
