cc @hoshizorarock regarding the history of Presidential Cheese Violence in the United States
Time Capsule Tales@timecaptales
In 1837, President Andrew Jackson invited the general public into the White House. The occasion? Jackson had a 1,400 pound block of Cheese sitting in the Entrance Hall of the White House that all were invited to eat. The Cheese was gifted to Jackson in 1835 by one Thomas Meacham, being produced by dairy farmers in Oswego County, New York. It circulated the Mid-Atlantic on a tour as it made its way to D.C. The great Cheese arrived at the White House by carriage with 24 horses pulling it. It resided in the White House for about a year until February of 1837, at his final party as President, Jackson invited all to eat their fill of the Cheese. "For hours did a crowd of men, women and boys hack at the cheese, many taking large hunks of it away with them. When they commenced, the cheese weighed one thousand four hundred pounds, and only a small piece was saved for the President's use. The air was redolent with cheese, the carpet was slippery with cheese, and nothing else was talked about at Washington that day. Even the scandal about the wife of the President's Secretary of War was forgotten in the tumultuous jubilation of that great occasion." - Perley's Reminiscences of Sixty Years in the National Metropolis, 1886, Benjamin Perley Poore

Um... why is the Pope making peace with Muslims??
That'd be like if someone struck you and you offered your other cheek!
Crazy!!

@abracetradicao wow he's as smart as Anthony Fauci and Bill Gates!!
Or maybe we've misidentified what intelligence means, and overvalue our flawed metric.

@JesseKellyDC @BuckSexton I found an elastic belt, the next best option.

The war in Iran is driving up costs and burning billions in taxpayer dollars. As governor, I'll be laser-focused on making California more affordable for working people.

Communion between Christians and Muslims takes shape under the mantle of Our Lady of Africa. Here, in #Algeria, the maternal love of Lalla Meryem gathers everyone as children, within our rich diversity, in our shared aspiration for dignity, love, justice, and peace. In a world where division and wars sow pain and death, living in unity and peace is a compelling sign. #ApostolicJourney

I am suspending my campaign for Governor.
To my family, staff, friends, and supporters, I am deeply sorry for mistakes in judgment I’ve made in my past.
I will fight the serious, false allegations that have been made — but that’s my fight, not a campaign’s.

@SCMountainGoat Yeah. I think the lefties are gonna go full self-destruct mode again like they did in 2020.

Is it just me, or does it seem like people get angry much quicker than they used too?
It seems like everyone is hanging on by a thread.

@Majyamelian @0DALNIM0 I would love to go metric. However, the education people made it confusing by focusing so much on mathematically converting units with exact precision.
So we're stuck with our 242 dicks. But those are American dicks. 🤣

이전 직장에서 미국인에게 foot ,mile, pound, gallon, Fahrenheit는 너네만 쓴다고 말했더니 거짓말좀 하지 마 난 그런 헛소리를 믿들만큼 바보가 아니야 라고함
그래서 일본인 터키인 러시아인을 데려와서 진실을 알려줬고 그 미국인은 자기가 입양된걸 알게된 것보다 더 혼란스러워했슴

@Pontifex Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! For you travel land and sea to win one proselyte, and when he is won, you make him twice as much a son of hell as yourselves.
Matthew 23:15
English
The sea and the desert have been places of mutual enrichment among peoples and cultures for millennia. Woe to us if we turn them into graveyards where even hope dies! Let us free these tremendous reservoirs of history and the future from evil! Let us denounce and remove causes for despair, and let us oppose those who profit from the misfortune of others!
English
The future belongs to men and women of peace. Justice will always triumph over injustice in the end, just as violence will never have the last word, despite all appearances. #ApostolicJourney #Algeria vatican.va/content/leo-xi…

@Pontifex For you are like whitewashed tombs which indeed appear beautiful outwardly, but inside are full of dead men's bones and all uncleanliness. Even so you also outwardly appear righteous to men, but inside you are full of hypocrisy and lawlessness.
Matthew 23:27-28
English
We must share what we have as a matter of justice. It is unjust to accumulate wealth and remain indifferent to others. This view of justice is both simple and radical, for it recognizes the image of God in others. A religion without mercy and a society without solidarity are a scandal in God’s eyes. #ApostolicJourney #Algeria vatican.va/content/leo-xi…

Раз языковой барьер пал, пора помогать американцам пересесть на метрическую систему. Я не могу понять как такая неудобная система до сих пор существует. Даже человеческие языки со временем становятся проще, так почему неудобная система мер не умирает?

@USCCB How does this demoralizing tactic appear both in the Catholic Church and in far-left corporate Human Resources?
To answer the question is to understand what prinicipality they both serve.

“I am disheartened that the President chose to write such disparaging words about the Holy Father. Pope Leo is not his rival; nor is the Pope a politician. He is the Vicar of Christ who speaks from the truth of the Gospel and for the care of souls.” - Archbishop Paul S. Coakley, President, USCCB
