Not really, they allowed him to run as he's a nutjob and thought nobody would vote for him, while retaining an illusion of that all sides are available for election. He's been described as an Iranian Trump. Then surprised pikachu this reformist nutjob gets elected. This is going to be an interesting run.

Yes, to be specific, according to the Quran women can wear whatever in the presence of "mahram" (close relatives), meaning, parents, grandparents, kids and grandkids iirc.

In Iran, the mahram part is rarely enforced so in practice women can wear whatever inside private homes, no matter the relationship to those present.

Recently, women in Iran are pushing back against the Islamic clothing rules in public and step by step bending the rules. Now, what you actually need to wear vary wildly depending on exactly where in Iran you happen to be. In some parts, typically rich parts of bigger cities, it's in practice tolerated to wear almost western-style clothing at the moment.

I'm tired of this kind of post, as it shows what a minority of society did in the 70's, it also simplifies women rights issues in Iran to simply clothing. Although it is a prominent part, there's much more to it. Things like that in court, a male witness is worth two female witnesses, and men inherit twice as much as women. Rape and sexual harassment is considered the fault of the women for dressing immodestly.

Of course it could be taken today. It looks like it's taken inside a private home. The clothing laws concern public places.

I expected some resolution or motivation for everything that had occurred, instead we got "God did it".

It's just a pity on a great show to have such a bad ending.

I think if they just filled the alt= attribute with the emoji this would copy fine.

Wow, I have TMJ but didn't know it's called that. Basically, the jaw joint clicks when eating certain foods. And I have bruxism and occasional tinnitus. Didn't know the connection, thanks for clearing it up!

I've used LyX with good results, it's a GUI that abstracts away many of the complexities of latex.

Unless there are security updates to install, then everything will be mercilessly killed

What they say for horses is that if you're going to walk behind one, stay just behind it. That way if it does decide to kick you, the legs won't be able to build up momentum and will be mostly vertical before hitting you. Under no circumstance walk 1-2m behind it, you can die if it hits you in the head.

Apply at your own risk to cows.
