Religion in America is mostly for personal gain. Itâs generally performance Christianity. Usually from the most immoral people out there. The louder their performance Christianity. Is usually from the most immoral of them.

i think one of the most powerful forms of protest right now is to simply not spend money. boycott everything. stop buying shit. bring the economy to a halt.
it's giving sale at hobby lobby
Guys he knows about and is afraid of all the chanting. KEEP IT UP.

Not yet, but anything could happen.
Darn. Oh well. Tomorrow is another day.

The biggest mistake liberals make on media issues is assuming the mainstream media gives a single fuck. They donât care. Theyâre rich and theyâre white and theyâre protected. None of this affects them. They donât give a shit. If you understand this fact then the tone of the coverage makes sense.

Black women have every right to be furious. The irresponsible choices of white voters has for many of us, taken our livelihood with consequences for our homes, the education of our children, our ability to care for parents. Itâs unconscionable. www.nytimes.com/2025/08/31/u...
We need a better educated and more open minded populace so they can find more mutually fun or more socially productive ways to get that nonsense out of their system.
Good news about the cutting-edge AI tools from the $3-trillion-dollar company.
Has anyone else seen the Did It Happen Yet site this morning?
I think we need to stop saying that people hate crime. They like punishment. There are clear ways to reduce crime that involve systemic investment in communities but we avoid doing that in favor of ever more militarized policing because too many people in power like punishment.
Theyâre using kids as bait. apnews.com/article/immi...
Your goal is to ensure their small half-assed life functions keep functioning 24/7 until theyâre more stable and have more sense. For cats, itâs a rough ride for six months. For humans, it takes a quarter century (the sense part takes a while but at least they learn to eat reasonably by idk 4-6)
Most of my human baby knowledge is, letâs be honest, repurposed general baby animal knowledge. đť
Donât forget outfits for they who do the burping. One of the very VERY few things I know about babies is that their caretakers end up going through clothes too.
"Blueskyism" helped make The Onion one of the largest newspapers in the world in less than a year. If we had spent all of our time on Twitter, we'd be poorer, dumber and terminally ill with internet poisoning. He's just angry he's wasting away over there in a nazi agnostic lane that doesn't exist.
In the land of Fall, soup will be king
Waiting for the morning update.

Ok I'd like the braincells I wasted on that back pls thx
Balthazar is thinking about Data science. It looks ecstatic.
I wonder if the troop launch is actually in anticipation of a bunch of rowdy celebrations that may or may not ensue?

Ok never mind.
Millennials take everything too seriously because growing up, Boomers would slap us if we didn't. Gen X at least could go hide in the woods for a few days until things blew over, Millennials were a captive audience to Boomer melt downs over idk doilies and screwdrivers and coupons.
Artemis is ok for a book about a woman written by a man.
âYouâre gonna need a bigger floatâ at todayâs Greenbelt Labor Day parade.
Magnesium > ibuprofen for imploding stabbing angry uterus syndrome (period cramps) and I really want to send a bottle back to the me who felt like I was gonna die from pain back in the nineties.
Not yet but it's still coffee sipping time.
I used to live in the v-neck version of those cardigans before the pandemic. Would wear them daily 10 of 12 months a year until they were worn thru beyond repair. This would be a very planned out purchase that would add longevity and function to the rest of the Stuff I Already Have.
When I hit NYC later this month I'm getting a Uniqlo cardigan for myself and my mother (Xmas is coming and I ain't paying shipping and their size chart is stupid and complicated now so I have to try things on in person anyway).
That and it's bad for the environment.
Planet ahoy! Do you want to find happiness there? Perhaps one day we will sigh contentedly there.
As of this morning, but the day is young.
Huh. How about that.
Not yet either. But tomorrow is another day.
I saw a comment on .. somewhere where a person referred to people who love AI as âbotlickersâ and I havenât stopped laughing about it
He always doth protest too much.
Fellow cishet voluntary non-daters: came across a good one today: "Straight but don't participate." I was going with "retired hetero" but I like this new one better.
We literally have the power to put the brakes on AI with our consumption choices at this specific point in time. We just have to use it.
Storage runs depress me because it's the end of hopes that expire with the season and because after years of hard work I don't have a one bedroom apartment with a large closet. đ
The reason I donât like so many of our self-proclaimed progressive officials is because whenever they want to get tough on homelessness, they âclear encampments.â They donât do what progressive countries do and provide housing (with no restrictions) and UBI. They throw what they consider trash away.
I'm just here to see if it happened yet. So far, as of the time of this post, it has not.
Sometimes weâre unsatisfied with a thing we made because when it only existed in our head, we saw all the things it could have been and when itâs done we know all the things that it isnât, but we canât see the way it expands into a million new things when someone else unpacks it in their head. đď¸đŚ

This seems weirdly unsustainable at first, but it's OK because we're building a Dyson sphere around the solar system to host it.

Wiser people than I have already said it, but it bears repeating: MAGA is a cult of personality, and Vance doesn't have one.
I miss living alone with my cats. I'm going to settle for a studio again I think and just get rid of more crap and buy better shelves. HomeGoods and second hand stores have those.
Buying special canned food for my babies makes me feel better â¤ď¸đââŹđâ¤ď¸
Right, exactly. All love to Bernie, but we are so far past the moment of strongly worded opinion pieces. Time to brush up on your Machiavelli and get deviously creative, before we all die of the plague.
The NRA buys off Congress. No action on guns. The oil industry buys off Congress. No action on climate. Insurance companies buy off Congress. No action on health care. The list goes on and on. Money in politics is the root of our dysfunction.
I've heard the Nintendo Booth has been the place to be at Pax West. Nintendo has a tremendous amount of demo stations.
Something about the two stories about ChatGPT's involvement in suicides/murder that came out this week that really stuck out to me: OpenAI basically has a boilerplate response when their product gets people killed. "Deeply saddened" www.wsj.com/tech/ai/chat... www.nytimes.com/2025/08/26/t...
Dr. John Doe does not want you to be healthy and thin, emphasis on the HEALTHY, because if he did, he would not be trying to sell you a book, he would be trying to make sure that whatever he thinks he has figured out is both true and safe, which takes LOTS OF OTHER SCIENTISTS

Thatâs a disgrace. She literally participated in an attempted coup.
The maddening thing is that we know EXACTLY how to prevent this. Yes, kids should get vaccinated, test, stay home when sick, mask as much as possible. But even without any of that: Better ventilation and filtration in schools can MASSIVELY reduce viral spread, for all sorts of respiratory diseases.
A few months ago, I got invited to go on the massively popular podcast, âDiary of a CEO.â Hereâs why I said no. jessica.substack.com/p/anti-femin...
I wish.
Itâs a Big Bag of Tiny Chocolates At The Office kind of day. Thank goodness for weekends, Iâm a sleepy human being.
If only enough people had listened to the smart ladies. We could still have Roe, we wouldn't have kavanaugh or barret on scotus, russia would be done, etc...
If you're a student or a teacher, you have a moral right and responsibility to REFUSE to use ChatGPT or any other "A.i." product. Tell your administrators NO to using this murderous technology in education.

YAY DEPRESSION!!!! I HATE THIS TIMELINE!!!!!
Literally everyone has depression soâŚ
âUnder his Eyeâ and we need to start watching for potential Trump successors because even if theyâre less charismatic we canât afford another one.
Steel yourselves. If we lie down in despair, the bad guys win. Forever.

Reefer madness, except with literally any and all medications that reduce human suffering in favor of a wealth = health model.
If you are in NY, 19+ uninsured and need an MMR booster you are entitled to have it for free under the STATE vaccines for adults programs. Info here: www.health.ny.gov/prevention/i...
I may need to renew my passport and go on a vaxx tour apparently. This is a very privileged take on my part in that I live up north, have enough money to even consider buying a passport, a job with PTO, and no kids or spouse to consider in planning a trip.
I'm genuinely glad for Canada and this is a smart business play by Moderna but it also stings when you consider the Moderna vaccine exists because of $10 billion dollars of US taxpayer money. And RFK Jr. might kill our access.
The VP race would be the hot one to follow in the next one, without a properly vetted vaxx it'll be The Day It Finally Happens pretty early on.
So anti-vaxxers have gone from âMy body my choiceâ to âNo Covid vaccines for anybody.â newrepublic.com/post/199515/...

Illinois Gov. Pritzker vows to pursue Trump officials who participate in an illegal National Guard deployment to Chicago: "If you hurt my people, nothing will stop me - not time or political circumstance - from making sure that you face justice under our constitutional rule of law."
"why aren't you visibly and vocally panicking" bc i need to keep functioning as a human being đ
Found a full length picture of myself from 2022. I need to be gentler to myself. I worked HARD the last couple years.
Trump is basically saying âfireâ in a crowded and already agitated theater, in other words.
Computer, stop telling me things
see how pizza rat and dude guy went about their business and left each other alone? why canât everyone else just leave other people alone and go about their business?
