So… what crimes did Denmark commit?
Or are we just going with “we just want their stuff” since no one seems to need the pretext anymore?

Looking over my left shoulder, I see Mom staring at me, knuckles white on the handle of her cart. I turn my head to find Nana behind the avocados, glaring. My heart pounding, I raise a hand towards the shelf. A bead of sweat falls from my forehead, hitting the floor with a splat.

Was reminded today of one of my favorite New Year’s hymns:
All this earth
Could all that is lost ever be found
Could a garden come up from this ground at all?
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of the dust
You make beautiful things
You make beautiful things out of us
All this earth

This is fully mask-off. It was never about “illegal immigration”.
This should not be shrugged aside. They have stopped with the fake 22 million illegal immigrants things and are flat out saying we want to deport 10's of millions of citizens and legal residents from "third world countries" Basically they are advocating removing 1/3 of the population on a gov site.

This is true and I was the only one on set excited about it (and playing the song on my phone to blank stares)
Just watched the new Knives Out and I think it's really important you know that the scene in the Seminary's Gym is filmed in the same place Rick Astley filmed the music video for Never Gonna Give You Up.
I saw the window tracery and immediately made my friends pause the film so I could tell them.

Remember!
You don't need to be the best writer or the best artist to create a story that resonates with people. All you need is hyper-fixation and a can-do-attitude!

he has scattered the proud in the thoughts of their hearts;
he has brought down the mighty from their thrones, and exalted those of humble estate;
he has filled the hungry with good things, and the rich he has sent away empty.”

Been thinking on the use of GenAi for mood boards. Ethics and legal risks aside, I truly believe using GenAi as references deprives one of many pivotal things.

Wake Up Dead Man had a vivid recurring motif of the image of a church missing its cross, a church without Jesus, a church that had literally traded its Jesus and the cross for a story of fear and anger and hatred.
Heartbreaking, horrific, and insightful. We must find the Damascus Road again.

One thing I've noticed on the far right is that if an immigrant commits a crime, they blame that immigrant's culture. But if a white American overdoses on a drug, they blame the immigrants' culture.

A word of hope from today’s Advent reading:
“A shoot shall come out from the stump of Jesse, and a branch shall grow out of his roots. The spirit of the Lord shall rest on him, the spirit of wisdom and understanding, the spirit of counsel and might, the spirit of knowledge and the fear of the Lord.

Yet another way that my evangelical siblings objectively changed recently.
1. Increasingly ok with cruelty and calling it Christianity.
2. Hypocritical on Clinton’s failures vs. Trump’s.
3. Didn’t start a panic about Trump as the Antichrist.
4. Didn’t start a panic about Mr. Beast as Antichrist.

I’m the parent of an autistic kid. What CDC is doing here is offensive.
It’s offensive to me. It says his autism is the result of my ignoring evidence.
It’s offensive to my kid. It says there’s something wrong with him (there’s not) and it would be better to risk literal death than be autistic.

Initially, some moms of autistic kids eagerly accepted vaccine lies, because that way they could reject the "refrigerator mother" hypothesis, which blamed autism on "cold" mothering.
Now, those same tired vaccine lies will likely be used to blame moms who choose to vaccinate their kids.
