#Scientology has put up its holiday catalog again, with images to prove how much L. Ron Hubbard’s church cares about this treasured day of the year. What's that? Ron said Jesus was a figment of Xenu's imagination? Well, try not to think about that, space cadet, and buy, buy, buy!

This headline in Politico says it all: this is all about Trump's personal gratification and wish to be the star of a big show on the international stage, not about getting a fair or durable agreement.

Looking back 30 years later, it's incredible to think that three medical professionals who were trying to prescribe something for Lisa McPherson were overruled by her #Scientology 'spiritual' adviser. ALSO: Danny Masterson's habeas petition hits an early snag with the court.
Lisa McPherson and the doctors: Hamstrung by the ‘spiritual’ needs of a thetan
Lisa McPherson’s first week under confinement at the Fort Harrison Hotel ended thirty years ago today.

1/ Why have so many supposedly MAGA accounts on X been exposed as being based in Nigeria? The answer may be linked to the unfortunate coincidence that the word "maga" in Nigerian Pidgin English means "a gullible person, a fool, or the unsuspecting victim of a scam". ⬇️

Only Esau’s mother, Gabrielle Lopez, felt something was wrong. She was pushing hard, but her son would not be born. “Can you help [him] out?” she asked, as Esau crowned. “Baby is coming,” the friend replied. Four minutes later, Lopez asked again, “Can you grab [him]?” Another friend murmured, “Baby is safe.” Six minutes passed. Again, Lopez asked, “Can you grab [him]?” Continue reading...
