I’ve seen some play defense for Iran but I think it comes solely from the fact that Iran is at odds with the US. Some are very black and white like that.

With Iran (and Afghanistan) being specifically an Islamic theocracy it can be a bit hard to separate the religion from this equation. Though why the other person decided to bring up Palestine, that’s more of mystery to me.

It’s a really weird situation they have with that

Since the 1979 Revolution, the legal code has been based on Islamic law. Despite allowing sex reassignment surgery, homosexuality in Iran remains a crime punishable by death.[2][3][4][14][15] In Iran, this framework is occasionally viewed as a means to “correct” individuals who may otherwise express same-sex desires, offering an option to conform to heteronormative standards

So being gay is punishable by death, but it’s fine if you go through gender reassignment surgery since that makes you a woman. With their attitude against gays you’d think they’d have similar attitude against sex change but I guess not.

I just read because I enjoy it. Around 20-30 per year. This year it’s looking out to be around 25. I wouldn’t read if I didn’t like doing it. I don’t think it makes much sense to force yourself into it. Sometimes I read historical stuff but usually it’s fiction of some sort. Historical fiction, fantasy, scifi. I’m a student so I suppose that helps.

What helped me read more was getting an e-reader. It’s just so much more pleasant than regular books and the selection is much larger.

Blind OP is going to feel so discouraged by this

I like SLASONDNSQ best

Mythic, more commonly referred to as LASO (“Legendary All Skulls On”), SLASO (“Solo Legendary All Skulls On”), CLASO (“Co-Operative Legendary All Skulls On”), or the very extreme version Mythic informally coined by players (“Solo Legendary All Skulls On No Deaths No Save and Quits”) is an informal difficulty setting for any Halo title featuring Skulls.

I couldn’t finish it because it was both so over the top American (I’m not American so it feels different) but also because at times it was weirdly boring.

Finland: You’ll have to call this one and it works only inside Finland https://asml.fi/kieltopalvelut/
