the book of matthew chapter 23 is as relevent as ever and always.

Though you soar aloft like the eagle, though your nest is set among the stars, from there I will bring you down, declares the Lord. obadiah 1.4 almost like the lord knew about hitler’s eagle’s nest

many very smart people are easily morally incapacitated by racism. greed and prejudice set them free of any moral responsibility to think clearly with integrity and righteousness and understanding. not to mention empathy and compassion and, dare i use the word, love.

Even though you offer me your burnt offerings and grain offerings, I will not accept them; and the peace offerings of your fattened animals, I will not look upon them. 23 Take away from me the noise of your songs; to the melody of your harps I will not listen.

i own a canadian flag, i’m thinking i might fly it

so the dude who called trump, “america’s hitler,” then did a 180 and became trump’s vp, then said who cares when a dude said, “normalize indian hate,” while his wife and kids are indian-americans, then went to dachau and the very next day meets with the german far right party with links to nazism.

much has been made about gop leaders not having spines, but i tend to believe it’s their missing hearts that’s driving us off the cliff into russian poverty.

For I know how many are your transgressions and how great are your sins—you who afflict the righteous, who take a bribe, and turn aside the needy in the gate amos 5.12 sounds like people we know in charge of important things. this will not end well for them.

talking to a friend before the election i referred to musk as a nazi. at the time i felt i might’ve been slightly mischaracterizing him. ah, to be young and slightly naive again.

Hear this word, you cows of Bashan, who are on the mountain of Samaria, who oppress the poor, who crush the needy, who say to your husbands, ‘Bring, that we may drink!’

the minor prophets are banging in such a time as this. the book of amos is locked and loaded and maga doesn’t have a clue.

too woke for the kkk in charge of dod: en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hiroshi...

when repbulicans watch the gladiator and they hear maximus utter the words, “strength and honor,” do they ever stop to think and briefly, in some miracle of grace, realize they have neither? or when they watch the band of brothers, do they know what side they’re on?

while the dems were counting the votes, the republicans were wooing the mob.

jd vance is a great-terrible example of the truism that we can’t marry our way out of our racism.

Strong, accurate, and to the point: "Plaintiffs reasonably fear that all or parts of this list might be published by allies of President Trump, thus placing themselves and their families in immediate danger of retribution by the now pardoned and at-large Jan. 6 convicted felons."

when they come to take me away to prison it will be my own relatives knocking at my door. idk how to forgive something like that. it enrages me, because the reason they come will be because i care for the poor, those with disabilities, and people who are not white. and that’s why they hate me.

The men carrying out Musk's coup are Akash Bobba, Edward Coristine, Luke Farritor, Gautier Cole Killian, Gavin Kliger, and Ethan Shaotran. Make them famous. And, eventually, when possible, arrest them and charge them with multiple felonies. www.wired.com/story/elon-m...

idk how many things are more humiliating, but realizing after how many decades i’ve been alive, but suddenly and finally realizing that people often see me as disabled and all the time i’ve never felt or seen myself that way is a pretty humiliating realization.

3rd flat tire in 2 years. a conspiracy of roads and nails.

dr king on living under severe oppression and seeming hopelessness: What, then, is the answer? We must accept our unwanted and unfortunate circumstance and yet cling to a radiant hope. The answer lies in developing the capacity to accept the finite disappointment and yet cling to the infinite hope.

happy birthday, dr. king. thanks for all your work. don’t feel obliged, you done enough, you earned your rest, but just the same, if you’re not too weary… maybe, if you got some time, let the big guy up there know we need a little more help down here in the dirt.

Nazi symbols are bad, and prompted widespread shunning, because they signal support for Nazi behavior. That's why "look, a swastika!" and "look, a seig heil!" was a successful argument against someone. But Trump 2024 ran on Nazi behavior, and won, so spotting the symbols isn't what it used to be.
