The International Meeting of Communist and Workers' Parties (IMCWP) is an annual conference attended by communist and workers' parties from several countries. It originated in 1998 when the Communist Party of Greece (KKE) invited communist and workers' parties to participate in an annual conference where parties could gather to share their experiences and issue a joint declaration. The most recent and 23rd meeting of the IMCWP is being held in October 2023 in Izmir and hosted by the Communist Party of Turkey (modern).

Organization

The Working Group (WG) of International Meeting of Communist and Workers' Parties (IMCWP) is composed of Communist Parties throughout the world. The task of the working group is to prepare and organize the International Meetings of Communist and Workers' Parties (IMCWPs).

The meetings are held annually, with participants from all around the globe. Additionally, there are occasionally extraordinary meetings such as the meeting in Damascus in September 2009 on "Solidarity with the heroic struggle of the Palestinian people and the other people in Middle East". In December 2009, the communist and workers' parties agreed to the creation of the International Communist Review, which is published annually in English and Spanish and has a website.

The 23rd International Meeting of Communist and Workers Parties

The 23rd International Meeting of Communist and Workers Parties (IMCWP) begins today in Izmir, Turkey, hosted by the country's Communist Party (TKP).

The Meeting is held between 20-22 October, under the following subject: "The political and ideological battles to confront capitalists and imperialism. The tasks of communists to inform and mobilize the working class, youth, women, and intellectuals in the struggle against exploitation, oppression, imperialist lies and historical revisionism; for the social and democratic rights of workers and peoples; against militarism and war, for peace and socialism."

My S/O said they were bad and needed to be punished. I grounded them.

Cw: cape shit

Isn't spider man like absurdly strong? Like hulk - thor - spider man?

Why does he punch people? Couldn't he just pick them up or gently push them over like you do when you're play fighting a toddler? The guy has god-like power, why the violence?

[–] asa_red_heathen@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Afaik Spiderman deliberately holding himself back when punching people so he doesn't instantly gore them is canon. But I dont read spiderman comics so Idk.

[–] Magician@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago (1 children)

That's pretty accurate. When a villain swapped bodies with him, he knocked a guy's jaw off and understood how much Spider-Man was holding back the whole time.

He's not quite that strong. Though his upper levels and potential are held back for psychological reasons, his strength is about at the level of lifting a car above his head.

That said, he could solve plenty of problems without violence if comic writers and artists had the desire and leeway to do so.

The ghosts of Halloween past, future and present arrive to teach the true meaning of Halloween to an old micer, and they just hang around for a while going "Booooooo"

Curious if there are any particular like guides or things to know about getting a tattoo if you're overweight and have lost a lot of weight and intend on losing some more, like if I wanna get tattooed is it best to try and wait until I hit a rough stable point before going for it?

[–] AlpineSteakHouse@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago

I think you're just fucked regardless tbh. I lost 120 lbs and there is so much fucking skin left. Some skin goes away naturally, some needs surgery, some can fill out with strength training etc etc.

The option for best results is to get to your final body build, weight loss, muscles, and surgery the whole thing. Then wait 2 years. Afterwards, that's probably how your body is going to look from now on. At least until you get older and things start getting worse.
