@wiseconnector I attended a private academy. There was a dress code. Girls' obsession with dress was over the top. If caught wearing the same dress IN THE SAME MONTH comments were made. Finally, in my senior year, I picked out an outfit and wore it every day. Got called into office!

No bills ever again, but you have to wear the same outfit every day. Do it?

@lippyent Ha ha

Very few will get it! Hmm 🤔 ?¿

@sprosay10 He didn't sacrifice anything to buy Twitter. And he most certainly does not believe in free speech. His censorship does not equate to free speech.

One man who sacrificed everything to save free speech. Do you really love me? Be honest!

@WoodsDarle82534 Greed and love do not exist in the same sphere. In some way, opposites. If a woman wouldn't be happy sharing a simple picnic with this man in order just to chat then nothing is really there. But, then, he believes there is no such woman in the world. Beliefs create reality.

I have been curious , can money really buy true love ❤️ ?

@amilleraz0 What novel are you in the midst of writing?

Biden didn't destroy the Rose Garden. He rebuilt the economy, created over 15 million jobs, cut the deficit, lowered insulin costs, and passed historic climate & infrastructure bills. His conscience is clear and so is his record. Do you agree with me? Yes Or No

@CynicalPublius Because it was free money. Didn't even have to work for it. Most of them. If they have been laid, then it's them.

We're supposed to feel bad when government employees are laid off. Nobody says much when private sector employees are laid off. Now why is that? (Rhetorical question, I already know the answer: Because government jobs = power.)

@CynicalPublius Bill Clinton deregulated nonprofits. No regulations. No oversight. No accountability. I say this is the most destructive force in the world today. And Trump does nothing about it.

Each passing day reveals more and more and more how we have all been paying for our own demise, as our tax dollars have been funding NGOs peddling extra-constitutional policies and activities that the electorate had otherwise rejected. The SPLC is just the most prominent organization peddling hate-4-dollars. Their entire network of supported NGOs is in on it too. How did this happen? Did somebody have a good idea in a meeting decades ago: “Hey, let’s control America by moving our activities in an unaccountable way to unelected, non-governmental organizations, but let’s still pay ourselves with tax dollars!” Or was this some sort of unspoken conspiracy between like minded individuals?

@ThomasSowell No white person is making you stupid, dear. That's all on you.

"The one way black people achieve true liberation that's by taking it in bl*od."

@joni_askola Amen.

Oligarchs have always been a threat, but tech oligarchs represent a new level of danger. Their wealth dwarfs historical tycoons and their control over algorithms allows them to curate human reality. They own the digital infrastructure of thought

@filipecardo Stay single, obviously. There is no such thing as a generous, unselfish woman. In this whole, wide world. Besides you only want to work and fly your rocketship to Mars.

I'm afraid to marry because every woman is after my money, they don't value me🥺💔 What do I do?

@r0ck3t23 Will he bring back unicorns and dragons?

Elon Musk just declared war on the oldest enemy in human history. Not a nation. Not an ideology. Scarcity. For ten thousand years, every war, every empire, every revolution traces back to the same root. Not enough. Not enough food. Not enough land. Not enough labor. Not enough energy. Every political system ever built was a different strategy for dividing a pie that was never big enough. Capitalism. Communism. Socialism. Different answers to the same question, who eats when the table runs short. Musk: “Tesla is obviously about sustainable technology, and at this point, we’ve added sustainable abundance to our mission.” Sustainable abundance. Two words that contradict everything economics has taught for 250 years. The entire discipline was founded on the study of scarce resources. Adam Smith. Ricardo. Keynes. Marx. Every one of them took scarcity as a law of nature. Musk is treating it as a temporary engineering problem. Musk: “People often talk about solving global poverty, or how to give everyone a very high standard of living. I think the only way to do this is AI and robotics.” Politicians have promised to end poverty since the French Revolution. Not one has come close. Because you cannot redistribute your way out of scarcity. You can move the shortage around. You can rename it. You can subsidize it. You cannot legislate it out of existence. But you can engineer it out of existence. When an autonomous robot can mine the lithium, build the solar array, wire the factory, and assemble the product for nothing but sunlight and software, the cost of labor approaches zero. When labor hits zero, goods follow. When goods hit zero, poverty has no mechanism left to survive. This is not philanthropy. This is not policy. This is physics. The assumption behind modern civilization is that a decent life requires decades of grinding labor. That was never a law of nature. It was a limitation of our tools. Every government that ever tried to solve poverty was treating a symptom. Musk is deleting the disease. Every empire that ever rose did so by controlling scarcity. Every empire that ever fell did so because scarcity won. The civilization taking shape right now will be the first in history built not on managing scarcity, but on eliminating it. Poverty will not be ended by a speech, a summit, or a tax code. It will be engineered into extinction.

@ThomasSowell The man who wants to die in a strip club on Mars. Pretty much sums him up.

Elon Musk: "Long term, I would like to move to Mars, I think it would be great to be born on Earth and die on Mars, just hopefully not at the point of impact."

@noah_mwamfupe You wish. Because if He did, you sure have wasted your inheritance.

Jesus didn’t leave us the Bible. He left the Catholic Church.

@ThomasSowell Odd. My experience is that they never shut up about it. You drink milk! That hurts my feelings!

Michelle Obama: "We don't articulate, as black women, our pain. Because it's almost like nobody ever gave us permission to do that."

@its_The_Dr Both. Well, not milk. Cream. And sour cream.

Which do you use?

@elonmusk There is something else not being discussed. Who outside the cabals knew about all this and how were they made to stay silent all these years.

They all work together

@cutiieepie6 Ayuh.

I am literally shaking. Some teenager threw a rock off an overpass and did this to my truck. I caught him, and his dad had the nerve to say, "He’s just a kid being a kid, I’ll give you $50 for the 'inconvenience'." $50?? This is a specialized windshield with sensors! He told me I was "ruining a child’s future" by calling the police. I feel like he’s raising a criminal and expects me to pay for it. Do I press full charges?

@elonmusk I bet they never imagined it would be revealed.

Exactly

@AntiWokeMemes He's losing his estrogen. Well, they do get estrogen injections. Maybe it doesn't stay long. Bit early for early menopause. What a pity. Beyond childbearing now. Oh, well.

'Trans Woman' says: “I’m so hot, I’m so sweaty and it’s cold outside...I’m in menopause” What could he be experiencing??

@JackoWilliams64 @johnddavidson Did 100 prayers today. My brain is fried. Sorry.

@godwizard @johnddavidson As I said, 10th century.

What's odd and a somewhat disappointing about Pope Leo's response here is that he diminishes the importance of sexual morality, saying there are "much larger and more important issues--such as justice, equality, the freedom of men and women, and religious freedom." Setting aside that sexual morality affects these "larger issues" (especially as they concern the family), the specific question he's responding to here concerns the German bishops' blessing of same-sex couples, which he says the Holy See disagrees with, and that disagreement has been communicated to the German bishops. So in Germany, the question of sexual morality, and specifically that of gay couples, is important enough that the German bishops are risking schism with Rome over it, and indeed are right now in open rebellion! On that basis alone, it would seem that sexual morality is indeed one of the most important issues facing the Catholic Church today, and it would be helpful if the pope's comments reflected that reality.
