We'll talk about past issues you've had, what your ideal bra would do, and any other issues or concerns you have. I'll then send you a list of 5-10 bras I think would be best for you, with specific size and fit recommendations.

"The wild claims made by leaders of the Christian right have also been in the mix: That Trump is a prophet sent by God to usher in the end times, and that attacking Iran is necessary to bring about the end of the world and the return of Jesus Christ," @amandamarcotte.bsky.social writes.

Mike Johnson and Co. are likely giddy at the prospect of triggering the Rapture… WHICH IS NOT A LEGITIMATE READING OF SCRIPTURE AND IS JUST SPARKLING NIHILISM COATED IN ANTI-SEMITISM, WHY IN THE NAME OF DOLLY PARTON’S SAINTED WIG ARE WE LETTING THESE PEOPLE ANYWHERE NEAR THE LEVERS OF GOVERNMENT?!
The American evangelical right is absolutely shitting themselves with excitement over this. There is nothing on planet earth that they want more then a destabilized Middle East at war to trigger the rapture. This is 100% fact even though it sounds ridiculous.
MAGA voted for the Book of Revelations, and we’re getting it.

It's truly is upsetting to me that the Christianity I was raised in taught that God gave humans Earth basically as a place to own and plunder, so taking anything we want of it is basically God's Will.
