True remembering is to work for peace. 🕊️🙏

White poppies stand for 3 things.

• Remembrance of all victims of war

• Challenging war & militarism, & the glorification of war

• A commitment to peace & to seeking nonviolent solutions to conflict

Calling Black and Brown women "low IQ" while you brag about passing a cognitive test is peak white man
Trump: "They have Jasmine Crockett -- a low IQ person. AOC is low IQ. Have her pass the exams I decided to take when I was at Walter Reed. They're cognitive tests. Let AOC go against Trump. Let Jasmine go against Trump. The first couple questions are easy -- a tiger, an elephant, a giraffe ... "

Went on a good ol’ fashioned Mennonite history internet tangent hunt.
1. Locating different Mennonite plays/musicals and their sources
2. Trying to find an article I read recently that was skeptical of Mennonites bring red winter wheat with them from Ukraine
3. Browsing articles from Mennonite Life

They don’t even bother denying the corruption and grift.
Q: On the pardon of Changpeng Zhao, Binance has significant business interests with World Liberty Financial, the president family's crypto company. How do you respond to criticisms that this is a corrupt act?

LEAVITT: I would respond and say the president is exercising his constitutional authority

The free speech activist who built a list of professors he worked to get fired for their speech must be celebrated for his support of free speech, and anyone who quotes his speech accurately in context will be fired and/or face state punishment by the champions of free speech, do I have that right?

Being tough on crime actually means making sure people have enough food, healthcare, transportation access, spaces to gather in community, belonging, etc. When those things happen, crime goes down. But that isn’t flashy or retributive enough to get headlines and votes.

The last 24+ hours has rocked me a little. I saw one former classmate post his thanks for CK’s work for the Kingdom of God, another who my fiancee went to school with and works in conservative DC politics posted Matt 5:7 at the end of her euology post. 1/

"I think it's worth to have a cost of unfortunately some gun deaths every single year so that we can have the 2nd Amendment.”

Nah.

Violence is never worth its cost.

Never.

Lord, have mercy.

Political violence is bad. It usually begets more political violence.

Celebrating political violence is bad. It usually encourages more political violence, against various targets.

Campus shootings are bad. They make everyone on campus less safe.

It's bad that what I wrote here is controversial.

Guns are bad, actually.

So much violence and death. God have mercy on our country that worships and propagates it on every level. May we repent from our 2nd amendments, our hatred for the other, and all forms of injustice that lead to more violence. May we love our enemies, and pray for those who persecute us.

Again and again, when you give people what they need, crime and poverty start to drop.
Over the past two years, we've taken a targeted approach to reduce violent crime by implementing common sense solutions that look at the whole picture. And it's working.
 
From Philadelphia to Pittsburgh, our cities are seeing homicide rates drop and our communities healing.
Pittsburgh homicides drop to 8-year low
Homicides in Pittsburgh fell 37% in the first half of this year compared to the same period in 2024.

Holy Humor Shirt idea!

“Boring Sermon Kills: Acts 20:7-12” and it’s a framed as a newspaper headline. Or some edit of that, maybe the accusatory, “Your Boring Sermon Could Kill! Remember Acts 20:7-12”

@pgoerzen.bsky.social maybe as Bethel B&R merch for Fall Fest?

It's #LetterboxdFriday 📽️! Here's My #LastFourWatched

A Denzel Washington trilogy! A Ridley Scott, A Spike Lee, and a classic sports drama. All really solid films, ofc Spike gets the social commentary stuff the most right of the three.

And a well made Russian Mennonite refugee documentary!

I hate endnotes.

What do you mean you are going to punish me for wanting to know your sources?? And by the time I get to the endnotes, I have to remember the endnote number and chapter I was reading in?
