Good golly.
A ‘minced oath’ is a euphemistic expression formed by deliberately misspelling, mispronouncing, or replacing a part of a profanity.
Many minced oaths avoid taking the Lord’s name in vain.
For example, ‘gee whiz’ is mostly a minced oath for ‘Jesus.’

The highest compliment from someone who disagrees with you is not “You were right.” It’s “You made me think.”
Good arguments help us recognize complexity where we once saw simplicity.
The ultimate purpose of debate is not to produce consensus. It’s to promote critical thinking.

HISTORY!! Cory Booker delivers the longest ever Senate speech, passing 24 hours 19 mins - speaking for a full day straight.
Millions have watched his protest against Trump’s lawless administration.
Some rubbish his effort. But he’s reminded us we all have agency.
He took a stand. He resisted.👏

A sign of intellect is the ability to change your mind in the face of new facts.
A mark of wisdom is refusing to let the fear of admitting you were wrong stop you from getting it right.
The joy of learning something new eventually exceeds the pain of unlearning something old.
