@franzsherbert The lack of awareness is startling, and I generally like those people.

This list is always funny because the classical schooling people are always crowing about how it's a based epic le Western Civilization list that owns the libs and then you look at it and it is the 100% most utterly conventional high school reading list you could possibly imagine

Just got off with the New York Times wanting my thoughts about the new mandatory reading list in Texas. I kept repeating that I think it’s awesome. Then she asked me if it concerns me that Muslim students will now have to read the Bible in school. I said that’s awesome too.

The people making these lists have an incredibly stunted view of literature. You can have classic books while still removing ones that will not maintain a teenager's interests.
Others, like Fahrenheit 451, are consistently taught wrong.

Throwback to one of the best Owen cyclops tweets of all time

I still don't think ppl realize what an amazing deal locking in a 3% mortgage in 2020 has been for homeowners
Inflation has averaged 3.9% this decade
It's now back above 4%
You're basically borrowing for free
This was the deal of a lifetime

Not that the memes of Karmelo being a “slut for BWC” aren’t funny, but if you have to seriously indulge in prison rape fantasies you are probably coping that your justice system couldn’t administer a proper penalty

@yai787 If you dont realize those statements were operations of nudge units, I dont know what to tell you.

The hateful and racist riots in Southampton, Belfast, and Derry across the UK are insanely disrespectful to Stephen Ogilvie, Henry Nowak, and their families, all of whom have urged the violence to stop.
Stop it. You’re not helping.

@SimoneHCollins Certain forms of media objectively rewire their brains, and you keep them away for the same reason you don't allow them to snort cocaine.
Porn is a prime example.

You can't truly shelter a person unless you hermetically seal them for life. Your only option is to annotate.
People who think they're "protecting" their kids from various forms of media are actually relinquishing their role as teachers and setting up their kids for failure.

im sure this movement to completely isolate people from exposure to anything erotic until they're 18 wont have any lasting repercussions to their sexual development

Lo que casi nadie sabe más bien es que esto, como reliquia medieval, es totalmente falso. El cinturón de castidad de hierro para garantizar la fidelidad de la esposa mientras el marido andaba en las cruzadas nunca existió, es un mito que se montó mucho después. Lo enterró completamente el medievalista Albrecht Classen, que se leyó todo lo que se ha escrito del asunto y no encontró nada real, ni un sermón ni una ley de la época lo mencionan y algo así aparecería. La primera vez que aparece dibujado, hacia 1405, es en un tratado militar lleno de artículos de broma y fantasía, con un carro tirado por gatos incluido, y acompañado de un pie de chiste sobre "los calzones de las mujeres de Florencia". Es evidentemente una nota cómica.
Las piezas que veis en los museos son falsificaciones de los siglos XVIII y XIX. El propio Museo Británico admite que la suya es falsa, y la del Museo de Cluny que le atribuían a Catalina de Médici se analizó y resultó ser de principios del XIX, siglos después. Se fabricaron entonces, igual que la "doncella de hierro" y otro montón de aparatos de esos que andan por los museos de la Inquisición para vender una Edad Media bárbara y oscura y quedar ellos de modernos y civilizados por contraste y desde esa incomprensión, alimentar fetiches morbosos.

@cairoasmith I know 2 couples who were coworkers who married recently. It is one of those internet things that are assumed but not true.
English
Is there really? Because I don't ever see people saying it's bad, I just see people complaining about the taboo.
fool me can’t get fooled again@foolmealex
Dating your coworker used to be one of the top ways to meet your spouse and now there’s a massive social taboo against it

When asked about the supposed growth of Catholicism in Africa way back in 1991, Archbishop Lefebvre responded:
"It is, unfortunately, not a real progress of Catholicism ... What religion will they have? It will no longer be the Catholic religion, but a kind of religious syncretism with purely external manifestations." wmreview.org/p/lefebvre-las…

My brother lived in an apartment where a guy was dead for weeks. They only found out when his body exploded from rotting and the stench became unbearable.
Gene Parmesan@dsonoiki
I recently became marriage and kid-pilled bc this guy I work with died he was 53 with a drinking problem and it seems like no one cares that he died his wife divorced him about a year ago bc of the drinking problem they had no kids they’re cremating him and not even having a service (“they’re” = next of kin, his siblings I believe) it feels as if everyone figured it was only a matter of time and they’re almost relieved? anyway these are our last texts. we were working on a $150m deal he’d been dead for a few days when the police did a wellness check and found his body I figure he died Wednesday since that was the last communication (we were on a video call and he also sent some emails) he missed the Friday call bc he was dead (he’d died)

The next presidential contenders might as well forego debates and appearances and go all-in on ballot harvesting.

If the federal government dies not swoop in and nullify this, elections mean nothing.

Spencer Pratt is likely going to be overtaken by far left Nithya Raman today. This graph shows the count on Election Day through last night. Nithya did this by suddenly winning 1st in every new ballot drop. North Korean "elections" have more self respect. Even they’d find it absurd for 3rd to suddenly jump to 1st place in every ballot drop DAYS after an election. It’s just ludicrous.

I know I'm really late in weighing in on this topic of aborting Downs Syndrome babies, but here's my experience as a priest who used to be involved in medicine:
Obviously, a baby with a genetic disorder is made just as much in the image and likeness of God as one conceived with a normal genome. That goes without saying.
But I can't even begin to tell you how many crying couples I have counseled over the years who were told by their OB clinician that their baby had Trisomy 18 or Trisomy 21 or another issue... and yet the baby was born totally normal!
Yes, docs are giving false diagnoses to big families in order to lead them to abortion. This might sound far-fetched, but I have seen this numerous times. In fact, such false diagnoses are suspiciously given to families who already have numerous children.
And yet, baby is born totally normal and healthy... over and over in my experience counseling big families.
Again, the babies born with disabilities are just as precious (some would say even more!) than those born without disabilities.
But do NOT believe every pre-natal diagnosis you receive. Many of them are false-positives on a host of genetic issues for the sake of "population control."

YouTuber Jesse Ridgway and his wife abort their child after finding out the baby had Down syndrome. Ridgway cited that they chose to kill the baby after deciding that he and his wife didn't want to be inconvenienced with a child with Down syndrome. "Things have been pretty dark for a while for us, and we felt this was gonna be a nice little ray of sunshine, and it's not." Horrific and selfish. An estimated 67% - 85% of pregnancies in the U.S. with a Down syndrome diagnosis are aborted. This is evil. Don't let anyone convince you otherwise.
