This is absolute truth. Add in I've read the Book of Mormon & done a little bit of Jehovah Witness readings. I'm not being arrogant when I tell Bible thumpers that I probably know their book BETTER than them..I'm WARNING THEM to not TEST ME๐คทโโ๏ธ

Saw this while out for a walk today. So it means, what, watch for someone running around with poop on their head? Hmm... Well I am in Tennessee.

Your Prime Day reminder that half of Amazon warehouse workers struggle with food & housing costs. A third have had to rely on government assistance like SNAP โ which is about to get cut. If Bezos can spend $50M on a wedding, Amazon can afford to treat its workers with dignity.

97% of extremist-related murders in the U.S. in 2024 were linked to right-wing extremists. Itโs not a political movement anymore - itโs a hobby for failed men with too much testosterone and not enough brain cells.

While Stephen Miller publishes the faces of the judges that struck down Trumpโs unlawful tariffs, his own goons in ICE refuse to show theirs out of fear of being publicly identified. If our judges are brave enough to face MAGA threats with their faces showing, ICE should not hide behind masks.

A variation on the old schoolyard bully tactic of grabbing the victim's hand and hitting him with it while yelling "Stop hitting yourself"! But this version involves two thugs, Russia doing the hitting and Trump yelling at the victim. As clumsy as it is thuggish.

Fact: They didnโt fear what breaking the Dept of Education would do to their kids. Their kids are in fancy private schools. They are dismantling the Dept of Ed so our kids have no choice but to be undereducated and work for their kids.

AOC on senate Dems caving and backing the CR: โA wide sense of betrayal.โ
Bob K (@pilotfish.bsky.social)
Senate Democrats look like they may cave on cloture for this Republican travesty, led by Schumer. Only slight hyperbole IMO, it seems they've forgotten how well appeasement worked for Europe in the '30s. (And maybe this time I won't accidentally delete my post)

There are 3000 counties in US and ~500 of them are blue. They house half the population and generate 72% of American wealth. They are the hubs for innovation and economic activity. If you want to live in a backwater, thatโs fine, but drop the piety.

Itโs Sunday, so letโs share the good word: If churches want to play politics, they can pay taxes like the rest of us. God doesnโt need a tax break, but millionaire pastors sure seem to love one.

I held on after Bezos blocked the Harris endorsement, I dropped Prime instead. But I've had all I can take and have finally canceled my subscription. Hate to do it, there are still good journalists there, but I can't keep rewarding bad behavior.

Religion was fabricated to control the masses and answer questions for which they had no answers. Now itโs simply a justification for hatred, division, and violence.

So a reminder: Itโs not โliberalsโ saying Hegseth abuses women. Itโs his mom. Itโs not โliberalsโ comparing Trump to Hitler. Itโs his vice-president. Itโs not โliberalsโ calling Musk a liar and a racist. Itโs his own child. For the record.

My neighbor felt obligated for some reason to put up a big Trump poster over his garage with the slogan "Take America Back!" The obvious question (which must have been asked somewhere else as well but I'm too lazy to search) is how far back? 1800's? Medieval period? Paleolithic era? Hmmm...

Keep asking what your God wants. Looking at it objectively, this is a question of what do you want? Obfuscation is human nature. So is dishonesty.
