@thinkingwest Until you have to move them.

Daily reminder that you need to be stacking *physical* books. Why? -they can’t be changed -you can pass them on to your children -they’re a break from a screen -you don’t lose entertainment when your battery goes out -they make great decorations -they smell amazing

@MTMehan I do not have high hopes for this film

"No one can stand between me and home--not even the gods." —It is hard for me to explain how un-Odyssean and un-Homeric that line is. We shall see soon enough what Nolan is up to.

@realsashastone The post was deleted. Do you have a screenshot?

This is the ideology the Right are about to elevate because they hate Israel that much.

5 May 1899 | A Czech Jewish woman, Františka Pollaková, was born in Prague. Deported from #Theresienstadt to #Auschwitz on 23 October 1944. She was murdered in a gas chamber after the selection.

@Timodc You seem nice

Drawing a map that gives New Orleans no representation via executive order. A disgraceful assault on democracy and hard earned civil rights in the south:.

"We are approaching a major turning point in world history... It is a juncture at which settled concepts suddenly become hazy, lose their precise contours, at which our familiar and commonly used words lose their meaning..."

@MavrocksGirl As long as they respect the source material. This was an iconic TV show and deserves to be honored.

David is not going to copy my dad.... He is going to do his own interpretation of #Rockford and that is totally OK! STAY TUNED!

I’ve posted this before, but there are a lot more of y’all now, and I think it’s worth repeating. Imagine a scenario in which large numbers of white people start saying that they “feel black,” and that because of this feeling, and their enjoyment of stereotypically “black behavior,” they are now not just black themselves, but the most marginalized and vulnerable type of black person. Imagine them insisting that they should be the main focus of all activism meant to help PoC. Imagine them having operations to darken their skin and mimic stereotypically black features. Imagine them walking around in blackface, and saying it’s the exact same thing as actually being black. Imagine them being honored as black citizens by the White House, being summoned to talk to the President about issues facing the black community, being supported by celebrities, and having laws passed to make white people who identify as black a protected class. Imagine these people demanding membership in black organizations, insisting that they receive a share of the reparations that CA is about to pay, and demanding they be given awards created specifically to honor black achievement. Then imagine them getting their way. Now imagine mobs of them showing up to black events that don’t include them, carrying threatening signs and air horns to drown out any speakers with noise. Imagine them coming up with slurs for any black person who doesn’t accept that white people are black if they say they are. Imagine them calling for the rape, torture, and mass murder of any black person who disagrees with them. Imagine them getting black people doxxed, harassed, assaulted, fired from their jobs, and investigated by the police for saying that you have to be born black to be black. Now imagine the government supporting their demands. That’s exactly the position that women are in right now, with a few extras, like being locked in cells with dangerous men, the sexual predation of lesbians via coercion, and the increased risk of sexual assault in what used to be female-only spaces. Our oppressors are now claiming not only the right to oppress us in whole new ways, but the right to erase our identities as women and rewrite the meaning of womanhood in ways that suit - and include - them. If you wouldn’t support this kind of behavior towards black people, you have no business supporting this kind of behavior towards women.

@secularprolife Pro-Life When there is a question of viability, humanness, or when the thing is question becomes a living being, we MUST error on the side of Life! Else we are not a civilization worth preserving, we become savages.

1) Do you consider yourself pro-life or pro-choice? 2) What are some aspects of the abortion debate you wish more people understood? 3) What are some aspects of the abortion debate you suspect your opposition wishes more people understood?

@cdrsalamander But Euphoria has nekkid Sydney Sweeney. Friends had braless Jennifer Aniston. They are not the same.

GenX had “Friends” on TV as benchmarks. Zoomers have “Euphoria.” I think that explains a lot.

@atensnut This is #FakeNews, Juanita. Most of these are fake. Don't fall for it...

Holy Crap. That’s just sick and disgusting.

@Devon_Eriksen_ @BonesawMD Also: God created man in his image, but man was such a moron he listened to a talking snake instead of asking God for clarification.

@Devon_Eriksen_ @BonesawMD It's really all they have. Boil it down to the fundamentals and you get this: "The Universe is so complex it must have been designed by a 'God'" AND "A being complex enough to have designed the Universe was always 'just there.'"

It’s interesting to look back at the so-called ‘intellectual’ militant atheists of the past, like Dawkins and Hitchens, bc I remember briefly thinking they were impressively clever when I was a young teen. I understand how far a posh accent can take you, but if you listen properly, you'll find many of their arguments for atheism are surprisingly hyperbolic and emotionally driven, the substance rarely rises too far above reddit-tier quips like 'bearded man in the sky' In contrast, when you read the works of theologians or intellectual giants from the past who believed in the essence of God, the difference in depth, intrinsic wisdom, and intellectual rigour is staggering Atheists can be highly intelligent – no doubt, I know many. But by its very nature, genius leaves no room for atheism.

@Buzzsaws1990 Good luck in your life, then.

@Raider_Dave13 I understand it. I don't find it relevant.

46% of Virginia is Republican they can elect 1 of 11 Virginia representatives 33% of Louisiana is Black they can elect 1 of 6 Louisiana representatives either both of these are discrimination or neither is discrimination

@secularprolife I am, in fact, an Atheist.

Plenty of people arguing against abortion are, in fact, atheists. secularprolife.org/tag/askanathei…
