They're making Christian pray in wardrobes there...
Gently point out to your gun-loving friends that every time they practice, especially at an indoor range, they’re likely ripping up a little more of their brain tissue. Try not to hurt their feelings, and for god’s sake, don’t make them angry. www.nytimes.com/interactive/...
Here’s “devout” “Catholic” JD Vance telling lies to make people hate their neighbors. Dante would have him hanging out of Satan’s ass.
Every single trans person I’ve ever met is braver than any member of this Congress, braver than than the just-following-orders fatbois at ICE, and braver than the bootlickers and so-called Christian’s surrounding our president.
Go ahead, silly CrossFit posers, come to our cities for “training.” Flip these truck tires around a take selfies.
It can be a sign of serious health problems. "I love you as a colleague, seriously, and I'm worried about your health." "Why?" "Well...." Name a few things, if you've got them, among them the scent--maybe with a note that it has been observed as a symptom of problems with the liver and so forth.
Yes, but you know the Party Secretary will ensure that the Correct candidates get the jobs.
Someone’s handing out whistles here in LA, and I think it’s a good idea. After all, you never know what might come down on you like a ton of bricks here…or in Chicago, or NYC, or Portland, or wherever you live.
Someone told me they weren’t worried about Trump because he wasn’t actually violating anyone’s rights. Keep on telling yourself that, buddy. This is how they’ll do it to you and to the people you love:

You're almost there, boys. Now take off your pants, get a room, and really cure that loneliness.
The ballroom will be used for junior miss america pageants and after-hours parties with the contestants. POTUS will invite his best buddies.
Leave him. You'll be happier, and it's quite possible he won't notice.
The sum he’s mentioning and raising is a ransom.
Best one I ever saw was on the ankle of a non-Chinese-speaking soccer coach for one of my sons' teams. He'd decided on a tattoo of his astrological sign (or possibly the mother of god) but wanted it, you know, jazzed up the way Chinese seems to some to jazz things up. So he'd settled on 處女.

"Thanks, guys!"--Pletner
Excellent way to build Bad Bunny’s fan base, though.
Thank you, USC! Thank you, University of Virginia!
Ronald Reagan said it. #NoKings tomorrow 10/18
Makes you wonder what he says in his private texts.
So which is for you, JD? Are you defending these men and women because you share their views? Or is because you too are still a stupid little boy? Also, would you mind showing us your chat history?
Didn’t you guys say “no more beardos”?
Turns out D’Souza is the Antifa ringleader! lithub.com/why-we-shoul...
Suggestion: Rename it Trumpcare and reintroduce it. If he resists, slobber all over his limp conscience like a cabinet secretary. Promise him a Nobelest Prize in Making Amerika Healthy Again. That should do it.

If novel-length fiction is an option, Len Deighton’s _Bomber_ could be of value to your students. An example of historical fiction in which the fact of its being fiction allows a most meticulous presentation of the technical and social contexts on both sides.
