How cool is it that the same God who created syphilis and cancer and mosquitoes thought the world needed one of you, too?
The college students not being able to read anymore is phones, it’s all phones, sure talk about whatever public policy or social thing you want to but we all know it’s phones. Just think, why can’t you read anymore?
It's interesting both that 1) Martin Luther King said in 1967 on ABC immediately after the Six Day War that Israel would have to leave the territory it had just conquered, and 2) this has dropped completely out of history motherjones.com/politics/2023/… by @garrison_hayes
Texas Republicans have now required social-media companies to let Nazis post on their sites and prohibited private employers from having a Covid vaccine requirement. Because they love govt regulation of business when it suits their ideological interests.

It’s true. I just tried it.
Boomers just don’t understand how hard it was to be a ten-year-old when coders were putting in overtime changing YY-MM-DD to YYYY-MM-DD. It was generationally traumatizing.
This was especially clear in 2021/2022 - where we saw huge rapid employment gains framed as "no one wants to work anymore."

I said 1, 2, 4, and 5 over and over and so did a lot of my friends, and we were horrified as GWB turned what should have been a limited mission to bring down a terrorist cell into not one, but *two* ill-conceived wars.

College admissions discourse is a neverending phenomenon because there are like 3M college applicants a year so just by random chance there will always be some star student who got very unlucky in the admission process who you can craft a Wall Street Journal article around.
The reason we have to continue to teach about the horrors of our colonial past is so we can recognize it when it's happening in the present.
If you don't live in Israel or consume Israeli media, you don't know who Yair Golan is. He is a 61-year-old retired Major General in the Israel army and a former parliament MP. Spend a minute to read this story. Yesterday, when IDF and the police were in complete chaos, Golan…
Apparently the idea of executing Milley is now the Party Line. We are living through real-time preparation for an authoritarian crackdown. We are in phase of "getting the public used to the idea of violence." Having authoritative voices like Haley endorse violence is key.

@gjcharlet @PaterAletheias I have no idea why "Ernest Goes To Spanish Harlem" popped into my head, but I'd watch it.
@PaterAletheias bright side, none of the millenarian hype from circa 2000 or 2012 made the list.
This was especially clear in 2021/2022 - where we saw huge rapid employment gains framed as "no one wants to work anymore."
My view is that the modern media is set up to deliver a very negative view of tight labor markets. Tight labor markets are great for workers but not for employers and (to a lesser extent) investors. Guess whose voices drive most economic coverage? Employers and investors. 3/

@LisaKDeam Extreme, ex-Christian opinion here but hear me out: Literally anything that implies God chose to favor you over someone else by providing you with your needs while others suffer is inherently prosperity gospel.
@LisaKDeam I see the problem as that Christians ONLY use the word blessed in that way. and never to express the blessings of the Beatitudes, or Psalm 1, or Revelation. "Shirley is so blessed because she hungers and thirsts for righteousness." - yeah, never heard that, or the like!
