Musician, Songwriter, IPM for MMJ Industry. East Coast to AZ. My love language smells like books, sounds like mandolins and says “I hope everyone is kind to you.” Mad for Irish Trad. X refugee.
Wow. You folks weren’t kidding about not keeping up with BlueSky engagement. No judgement, just a little surprised/disappoibted more fans of the show aren’t pitching in.

Just here to say: Yay for the Pogues shout out this week. Also recommend Arthur Macbride for another odd Christmas song. :-)

I should remember to only read these on Saturday mornings, when I am allowed to put the whiskey in the coffee…

Still, I’m grateful you’re out there.

And there it is: going after Section 2…

How does paid speech equate to free speech? How is the agency/non-agency of the minor not at play in these arguments? Last, if medical consensus is so fluid, doesn’t that *support State licensing boards, whose whole damn gig is to research and evaluate such things?

Mafia lll would like several words.

And tell RDR2 fans: gamers can’t wrap their brains around being on the losing side of a historical setting. That’d not go well, cowpoke!

So, not only will Congress give federal employees the🖕; they’ll push it right into their faces and make a tight little circle with it.

“This is about lying to Congress”

So, what Crenshaw is saying, on Fox News, is that James Comey might also look forward to a 17 year long career at Fox News, just like Oliver North….

WCW would be proud of you. :-)

You’re welcome! If you think of it, let me know what you think. And- if you run across anything good (especially 1-3 cent Christianity or Paul’s influence/history) please pass it along.

I really like Richard Carrier and Paulogia. It’s difficult to find anything long form, *historical and well-done. I’ve listened to some of Bart Ehrman’s stuff, but it does seem like he takes a break to sell something every 24 seconds or so.

Patel’s “facts” holds less water than the average colander.

I get that, deeply.

Of course, you could respond with four words of your own: Here’s your new kitten.

And amend that with- “In two weeks- tell me ‘it’s just a cat’.”

It might be interesting to note: the movement against empathy did not originate with Mr. Kirk. It’s been a talking point on the Christian Right. “The Sin of Empathy” by Joe Rigney is one of many examples. Mr. Kirk was merely parroting the work of others, which is what commentators do.

I want one!

This aged like the fish left in the break room microwave over Labor Day weekend…
