Mostly KC Sports and miniature painting, with random Christian theology reflections thrown in. You know, for fun.
You are all loved, no terms or conditions apply.

Going to migrate my mini painting posts to over here since Instagram decided to be an even bigger bully. This will be a very big thread.

Yes. If you ever think banks should be allowed to cut off financial services for "morality" reasons, just note that neither Epstein's pedophilia, nor Miller's Nazism, nor RFK Jr's eugenics, nor Musk's destruction of USAID caused banks any "moral" concerns whatsoever.
We cannot allow financial institutions which regularly cross the line from amoral to explicitly immoral to hold a dehumanizing line against people who do sex work.
I don't believe for a moment that this debanking effort is because of Ana's sex work rather than her reporting, but also even if that was the reason it shouldn't be allowed.

None of the content Ana has ever made is illegal. There is no justification to cut her off from the banking system.

Can we circle back to the part where the NY Times never disclosed that they have incriminating information on Donald Trump from sent by Epstein that's been sitting on their email servers for nearly a decade?
Stuff like this makes me wonder why there hasn't been any reporting about Trump having affairs during his presidencies

Souvannarath is likely a citizen, ICE kidnapped him, he filed habeas, a judge ordered he not be deported, and *the next day* DHS deported him.

DHS told the press they didn't get the order, which is undoubtedly a lie and will be perjury when they say it to the court.

There's a song on Christian radio right now called "Honest." So for my piece this week, I explore how I'd like to explore reality in a way that is honest, but for me to go back to embracing white evangelical theology would be to embrace dishonesty.

“Can I be honest?” This is the question being asked by one of the most popular songs on Christian radio today.

Since John Roberts and Brett Kavanaugh are so desperate for a time limit on race-conscious remedies to systemic racism and they're itching to sunset the Voting Rights Act, well I give my permission. They can do it—in the year 2299.

Until then, shut the hell up.

Supreme Court Conservatives Are Tired of Hearing About Racism. Guess What? Me Too.
Will the Supreme Court and Chief Justice John Roberts finally completely gut the Voting Rights Act in Louisiana v. Callais?

seems that RFK is clearing the path for his CDC to do tuskegee syphillis experiments as a matter of course. in other news, RFK is a genuine monster who relishes in the pain and suffering of those he feels he has control or dominion over
RFK is undoing human subjects protections so he can conduct placebo trials of vaccines. That means infecting people knowingly. I wonder who will “volunteer” for these trials? If history is any guide, a lot of incarcerated and other powerless people.
Dismantling the Institutional Review Board (IRB), that oversees all human subjects research, is bad. Really bad.

The entire HR department at the CDC is gone. Everyone at the IRB, which makes sure studies are conducted ethically and rigorously, and the ethics office, which oversee conflicts of interest for CDC leaders and advisory committee members, were also let go.

It's rare in a case of this high profile that the court gives time to one lawyer from one side, and THREE lawyers from the other side.

*Technically* both sides are supposed to have equal time, so like, the 3 lawyers arguing for racism are supposed to share time. But it doesn't work out that way.

I have a theory there is a specific way of engaging with media where the goal is to make it say what you want. Not normal dishonesty but a systematic way of interpreting media.
