Start about 1/2 way down and a bit to the right-of-center of the linked material to find branches of Xianity. Members of each branch are likely to say *they* are "the real Xians." If they are fully open, they would express doubts about all the others >because there are reasons the branches exist<.

BARTIROMO: How do you want this to play out once the ACA subsidies expire?
DR OZ: We have lots of great ideas, but I don't want to show our cards. As the president often says, why would I telegraph to you what we're gonna do?

Astonishing: Bovino and his agents showed up at the Bean this morning to pose for pictures. While Border Patrol snapped photos, one agent shouted, “Everyone say, ‘Little Village!’” The neighborhood where they are least welcome and most acutely felt. blockclubchicago.org/2025/11/10/b...

I would hope a physician would have at least basic knowledge of indemnitors' use of the "law of large numbers" relative to health care insurers. 🤷♂️

This exhibits the precarity of all adoptees' existence -- we are paper-made children of those-who-raise us -- nothing more / nothing less.

just a tremendous irony here, given that adoptees are given fabricated documents making them “as if born” to their adopters, but intercountry adoptees do not have birthright citizenship. 🥚
did you know that intercountry #adoptees born before 1983 have no guarantee of US citizenship, and instead are treated as immigrants who must obtain citizenship through naturalization? That they are subject to deportation if they have committed a crime or are deemed to be in the US “illegally?”
