Bears. Still. Suck! #GoPackGo

Kamala Harris didn't lose, America did. As a nation, we collectively failed her—and in doing so we failed girls and women, the LGBTQ community, people of color, Muslims, Jewish people, immigrants, the sick, the poor, the elderly, the people of Ukraine, and Gaza, and the planet. It's unthinkable, that instead of being able to celebrate a beautiful, hopeful new chapter in the story of this nation with a leader who appealed to the best of our natures—we will instead be holding a postmortem for democracy as we enter our 250th year, stewarded by a malevolent sociopath who despises empathy and shuns the law. I truly thought we were better than this, that our shared humanity would show up. I thought we would reject this hatred and ugliness once and for all. I hate being wrong about the majority of the people of this nation. I don't know what's ahead. All I know is that good-hearted human beings are more necessary now than ever. We did all that we could to avoid this moment, but now that it's here we'll just have to decide who we will be. There is no way to comprehend or measure how grievous an error this is, but the only thing the decent people of this nation can do is wake up tomorrow and fight like hell for what we still believe is worth the fight, and we will. I'll be doing that with whoever has the strength to join me. I'm mourning the country we could have been and the one we apparently are—but I refuse to give up believing that compassion is the right path, that diversity makes us better, and that love is greater than fear.

Turns out my biggest mistake might have been believing people were inherently good…

This IS the bad place

May we one day return to a presidential election in which millions of Americans may be disappointed by the outcome, but they’re not terrified that democracy will die and hard-fought freedoms will be torn away.

I literally cannot think of a single point in time where I regarded Donald Trump as fit for office.

If I had to gauge my disappointment between how bad the Packers looked yesterday and my disappointment in the loud obnoxious “fire LaFleur,” “Jordan Love is Daniel Jones,” “The Packers are frauds,” “When can we get out of Love’s contract,” “Malik Willis is better” crowd, I’m far more disappointed in the fanbase side of things. Just don’t even remotely get that side of fandom. After every loss it’s just “everyone sucks, burn everything to the ground, cut and fire everyone.” I understand fan is short for fanatic but have you never seen a team lose before? Spoiler alert - it’s going to happen again at some point. Packers will bounce back and they’ll be better for it. R e l a x is overplayed but r e l a x.

@AnnieAgar Hopefully we will get better 💚 my hope is we beat them in the NFC championship game in their stadium 🤞

so anyway the bears lost…

Thanks for the reminder, @nbcsnl.

Women are going to protect the country from Donald Trump, whether he likes it or not.

this one.....

The entire Old Testament is about the failure of God’s chosen people to establish a kingdom based on political power. The entire New Testament is about the establishment of God’s kingdom based on forgiveness, love and service to others. Yet we still want to seek political power.

until the day i die i will never understand how this wasn’t the end of it

SATAN: “I will give you control over all of these nations.” JESUS: “No.”

There are 36 mega churches in the state of Alabama, but it was an Native American casino that’s stepped up to pay for all of the tornado victims’ funerals.

That's my kicker 💚💚💚

Nationalism keeps telling us Christians to take up our swords and make our nation "Christian" by any means necessary. Jesus keeps calling us Christians to take up our crosses and be like him, serving the world through grace, humility, compassion, and self sacrificial love.

@haymes_joshua So as a Christian, you're just choosing to ignore all of what Jesus told us to do? Put down your sword, lay down your life, let those without sin cast the first stone - means absolutely nothing?

Every Christian must be pro-death penalty. The Bible is not ambiguous on this point. God has given the civil magistrate the sword to punish evildoers (Romans 13:4). But should all Christians be pro-public execution? Adam Terrell makes a compelling case that public stoning was not just God’s design for ancient Israel, but God’s design for capital punishment in all times and all places. Our modern sensibilities may chafe at God’s law on this matter. We may think it’s brutal or barbaric. This is because we think we are wiser than God. His Law is not only good. His law is effective. Public execution, swiftly carried out, would drastically reduce capital offense crimes. Fear is a truly effective deterrent. I would argue that death by a public firing squad wherein the accuser and witnesses partake in the firing, could be a modern equivalent. Not yet sold on the idea that all capitol punishment must be a public stoning where the community partakes, but then, I haven’t finished the book yet. I will say that if God’s word teaches that public stoning is in fact God’s design for a righteous civil polity, then I will absolutely advocate for the position. Anybody else thought about this, or have a well thought out position on the matter?

@DonaldJTrumpJr Imagine putting your kids on a school bus every day having to say a prayer they make it home. My kids ARE a target. So yes, we do have to do this everyday as parents.

You know what’s getting really old? Having to have conversations with my 5 young children about radical leftist trying to kill their grandfather. No person should ever have to do this in America or anywhere else and yet I had to have that conversation five times again yesterday.
