I follow a LOT of writers and journalists. And a shocking number of people follow me.
I'm a stay at home dad. Ex-aerospace engineer. Lover of hotrods and puppy dogs. Airplanes are neat too. Wealth is stolen labor. Late stage Capitalism is NOT a fun ride, I want off. If you don't post your own original thoughts, I probably won't follow back.

Flagged down by a woman? Rudy? Really? We expect that he would stop for some random lady? Where was this? On the INTERSTATE? Were supposed to believe some random woman on the freeway flagged Rudy down and he actually stopped for her? Really? Wow.

Guess what kids? We're being lied to about the economy! Our GDP dropped for the 2nd quarter in a row, a first since covid and 2008. Y-charts says -.6%. Note the increase of 3.5% year over year. The government switched to annual instead of quarterly to hide the loss. Also, the economy is fake.

100% the case. Vance is a snake that was created out of whole cloth by Theil. Remember in his fake autobiography when he had the big dinner with the law firm recruiters, and he stood up for himself? That didn't happen. Instead, Theil found himself a patsy.

I think Spielberg would have made it directing silent movies. But he owes his success more than 50% to Michael Kahn. Lucas is a b-movie campy director without ILM, Williams, Spielbergs help and ALSO Kahn's editing.

The disconnect is real. They're so craven they can't see it. Babbitt was killed while crawling through a locked door, that she helped smash, while a POLICE OFFICER pointed a gun and said they would shoot if she kept threatening to assault that officer. That officer doesn't count, I guess.

When I was a kid in the mid-90s, I would help my mom with shopping. The grocery was called The Fair. If you spent $100, you got a free ice cream cone from the snack shack there. If it was a special occasion, we would fill two carts and just break $100. I do that with a handbasket now.

Death and violence. A lot of it. There was no negotiating by the Germans, Italians or Japanese. We made their new laws and governments...mostly. OK, so we just let Italy do its thing. But, Japan might as well be called "MacArthur Land" and Germany, half of it became communist against their will.

Nathan the Dad (@dadwantstotalk.bsky.social) reply parent
He did. Jesus fulfilled the old rules and set forth new ones. Anything and everything in the old testament is obsolete. That's what Christianity is. If it's in the old book, but not the new one, apostles of Jesus says it doesn't apply. Because of Jesus, not necessarily that he said it. He existed.
Nathan the Dad (@dadwantstotalk.bsky.social) reply parent
Jesus sets aside the cleanliness rules. Mark 7:14-23, Matthew 15:10-20 The Apostles say that the rest of the rules don't apply to Gentiles. Rom 7:1-6; Gal 3:25 Then Paul says anyone trying to follow the Law must be perfect, an impossibility. Then Hebrews says the old covenant is obsolete.

Um, the entire New Testament? It's funny though, because there are a lot of straight forward quotes that say you must follow even the smallest law. However, when Jesus died, was resurrected and ascended, the old testament was fulfilled and obsolete. Unless you think Jesus wasnt Messiah. Fairytales.
Nathan the Dad (@dadwantstotalk.bsky.social) reply parent
Even better is that the passage they use is in the "old book" that Jesus said is the old covenant thats to be tossed out. That He was the new covenant, and to just be nice to your neighbor. But, no. Religion demands enemies to be in the "out" group to keep people in the "in" group.
