Oh no. Please no. Anything but that.
Yessssss. Join the cult of the yarn snobs! Swaddle your loved ones in cashmere and merino that is amazingly soft and lovely and then rant about how it came from this one heritage breed of endangered sheep and the proceeds go to feed starving children and defeat fascism!!
They've now killed four people -- three U.S. citizens and a Mexican national. They've shot several more.
They've lied about all of them. They haven't shaded the truth. They haven't "misled" us. They've brazenly, knowingly lied while in possession of the evidence disproving their lies.
This is one of the curlers on the USA Paralympic curling team and I told him today that he should post about his Paralympic experience on BlueSky because people on BlueSky get very excited whenever anybody doing anything cool in the world posts through it on BlueSky instead of other websites
All of this. Despite the OTT rhetoric at times, most of Jesus’ debates with the Pharisees make the most sense if you read them alongside other rabbinical debates of the time.
Re:LRT—I mentioned the other day the way passive voice in our media shapes our thinking. Like the way we envision the Middle East as just inherently dangerous without stopping to consider why. Lava pits? Tidal waves? Specific conflicts occurring for
Specific reasons?
Oh no, I can't believe all those slurs forced themselves into that defenseless group chat!

"The planes flying overhead are not on practice runs, but are flying on or returning from a bombing mission, with the intention of killing people."

"So we've got the firestone and the wood, but no sheep. And you're saying we're going to do a sacrifice with no sacrificial animal?"
ABRAHAM:
It’s like the culmination of everything @karanslade.bsky.social warns about.
This happened before—there was some fawning coverage of the beeper attack by Israel in the US press. “So advanced! So technical!” Leaving out the parts about the indiscriminate killing and death of civilians, because what was IMPORTANT was how Technology works and Technology is never wrong, ok?
So, the robots intentionally targeted a girls’ elementary school for a double-tap strike, is what you’re saying. And we should be ok with this because it was ‘very advanced’. ‘Very advanced’ doesn’t equal ‘acceptable’ or ‘moral’, you absolute ghouls.
I seem to have some new folks around, so welcome. I am your local friendly Episcopal priest, though I speak of many things here. My opinions are not my employers. Sometimes I live tweet very old church records for funsies.
SIRI WHAT IS A FUCKING HISTORY TEXTBOOK
o wait we already burned them all except the ones published by Ghislaine's daddy
lolsob
I didn’t say it was a white South African because it wasn’t. The gentleman speaking was black.
I was in a church hearing on this and someone said “Well, what do actual South Africans say?” Helpfully, we had one on a Zoom call, and he chimed right in. “Oh, we do not call it apartheid.” “Ah, see?” South African Anglican: “Because what the Palestinians live with is much worse.” Mic drop.

If you didn’t know what it was before, today is a great day to learn about the Sykes-Picot treaty.
Greg Davies: That is one absolutely sodden infant. Excellent work.
Thetis: It's not as easy as you might think, dipping a baby in a river
Alex Horne: So the instructions for the task were to dip the *whole baby* in the river...
Re: Batman—I read a book in seminary that argued America’s obsession with superheroes had to do with our apocalyptic exceptionalism myth. That there was Only One chosen to save us, and that violence was the only path to salvation and we were it.
I would concur. There’s a sizable scholarly agreement that there definitely cannot be a just war with current weapons, just because of how incredibly lethal they are. If there ever was one, it might have been two dudes with rocks.
If the past few days has made you think “Wow, I wish there was some ethical basis for waging war. Or just deciding whether it was ok to go to war.” Then good news, everyone! I did a podcast on that thing a little while ago! podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/f...
Because she was working with a federal task force, she was considered a federal officer, and thus protected by SCOTUS rulings making it all but impossible to sue federal cops, even for egregious abuse.
Now consider what this means for Trump's immigration thugs.
Democrats had two years to fix this.

I was just looking on Etsy to replenish my stock of collar studs. The number of “CUFF LINKS—SPENT BULLET” “CUFF LINKS: SHOTGUN SHELLS FOR MEN” “MEN SHIRT BULLET FOR MEN WHO ARE MEN” was truly concerning.
We did it once! With the Church of Sweden! Basically, we had made agreements with all of their friends, and then sort of assumed we had with them too. This carried on for a few years, until one guy was like “did you know we never signed an agreement?? We should!” It was like 2012 or 2015 in there
This isn't a Christian war.. Is a you've been bamboozled war.
