My husband, who doesn't like coffee, yet drinks 2 cups each morning. When you ask him why he drinks it? He says: Because cocaine is illegal. π He makes me laugh. Anyway... This may not be the "bad" press you think it should be. Especially to people at Harvard. Just sayin'

I just want to know how to PERMANENTLY turn off and Remove Gemini from my husband's new Samsung S25+. Every time I think I've found the settings to turn it off, he tells me Gemini emails, or texts, or gives him a pop-up about doing something. Make it STOP!

When Hamas attacked a music festival and killed hundreds of people and took hundreds more hostage, it was a just cause to attack the people who attacked you. Now if you like a terrorist organization like Hamas then I suggest you move there and find out what they're really like.

Agnostics do have a belief system. They believe we all share a moral code that is not related to a religious belief.
Vickie Carey π¦ (@vickiecarey.bsky.social) reply parent
Agnostics don't generally believe in a deity. Or that a deity exists. Rather that something probably exist but it's unknowable if that's fact or feeling.
Vickie Carey π¦ (@vickiecarey.bsky.social) reply parent
Well God is a job title not a name. So to believe in God you'd have to first Define what God is.
Vickie Carey π¦ (@vickiecarey.bsky.social) reply parent

Vickie Carey π¦ (@vickiecarey.bsky.social) reply parent
An Agnostic holds the belief that it is not possible to know whether or not "God" exists, but does believe there is a Divine force in the Universe. Something bigger outside ourselves.

Look at this graph. The share of national income going to the richest 10 percent was lowest (and share to lower 90 percent highest) when union membership was at its highest. As unions have weakened, inequality has widened. This is why we must build back union power.
