Life is transient and fragile. I need to try harder to be kind. You probably do, too.

@Belover @conservmillen Ragebait moron.

@conservmillen CCM was a gay enclave in Evangelical Christianity. Most CCM music was gay. Carman. Rich Mullins. Chris Rice. Michael Tait. Your evil reign of terror is ending.

Former band members from the popular 90's CCM band Avalon have re-released the song "Testify To Love" as an LGBTQ affirming anthem and claim it's always has been about queer love. One of those former members, Melissa Greene, writes in her Substack post alongside photos of another band member kissing his husband at the altar that "love is for everyone" and "Michael never needed to be redeemed. He was always whole and worthy." This phenomenon of believing that we are somehow nicer than God, that Romans 1 is too harsh or that passages affirming the holiness of marriage between one man and one woman are simply too difficult to accept, is false. We go to God's word for what's true about sexuality and marriage. If something in the Word of God seems wrong, cruel, or confusing to us, the problem is not with God. It’s not with His Word. It’s with us.

@KatyTurNBC , a government that bestows “rights” can and most assuredly will abridge and strangle those “rights” in order to expand and maintain its power over its subjects. That guy is an idiot. Historically ignorant, dishonest, and ethically bankrupt.

There’s a generation a lot of people forget exists. We were born at the tail end of the Boomers, but we are not culturally the same as people born in the 40s and early 50s. We are Generation Jones. And honestly, it explains a lot. We grew up in a world that still felt fundamentally analog, but we were young enough to be dragged headfirst into the digital revolution. We are the bridge generation between rotary phones and smartphones, between slide rules and AI, between Walter Cronkite and algorithm driven media. We remember when there were only a few television channels and the entire country watched the same thing at the same time. We also adapted to the internet, email, forums, social media, streaming and now artificial intelligence. We lived before and after the technological singularity hit everyday life. That is not a small thing. People born in the 40s came of age in a post World War II America that was still industrial, deeply hierarchical and institutionally stable. Their formative years were shaped by the Cold War, Vietnam, the civil rights era and a society where information moved slowly. Generation Jones came later. We inherited the aftermath of all of that. We were the kids who watched Watergate destroy blind trust in government. We watched manufacturing begin to collapse. We saw divorce rates explode. We were the first truly latchkey generation in massive numbers. We learned independence early because many of us had to. We grew up with one foot in old America and one foot in whatever this new thing was becoming. We played outside until the streetlights came on but we also learned DOS commands. We learned cursive and keyboarding. We had card catalogs and Google searches. We went from vinyl records to cassette tapes to CDs to MP3s to streaming in one lifetime. We remember maps. We remember memorizing phone numbers. We remember life before GPS and before every human interaction became filtered through a screen. And because of that, I think Generation Jones developed a very unique perspective. We are adaptable because we had no choice but to adapt. We learned technology as adults instead of being born into it. We remember a slower world but were forced to survive in a rapidly accelerating one. That creates a very different mindset than either older Boomers or younger Gen X and Millennials. A lot of us also reject the caricature people now associate with “Boomers.” We were not buying houses for the cost of a sandwich in 1965. The interest rate on my first house was over 14% and that was after buying down a point. Many of us got hit by recessions, outsourcing, pension collapses and economic instability just like younger generations did. We watched promises evaporate in real time. We understand older generations because we were raised by them. We understand younger generations because we had to evolve alongside them. That’s why the Jones generation often feels culturally homeless. We are rarely discussed, rarely defined and usually lumped into categories that don’t actually fit us. But we exist. We are the human transition point between the industrial age and the digital age. And frankly, there will probably never be another generation quite like us again.

@Supersonic_Red @Ithildyn This resonates.

@pureMetatron Ragebait and stupidity. This is why I, for one don’t follow you (or people like you) on Twitter/X.

So let me get this straight. Christians are apparently overwhelmingly far-right but at the same time Jesus was basically a communist. Did I get this right?

@Nessakins_ It’s not good chocolate and it’s not good peanut butter. It’s crap. 🤷🏻‍♂️

People who don’t like Reese’s Pieces: What is your fucking problem??

The Bible completely changed for Tim Allen. He’s been reading the entire Old Testament — in Aramaic, French, Latin, and Greek, page by page. The story that wrecked him the most was the Book of Job. When Job asks God why he’s suffering, God essentially replies: “You weren’t here when I created the world. You don’t understand why the waves stop at the shore or why the stars move… so why are you questioning me?” It left him humbled and in awe. In a world obsessed with quick answers, certainty, and self-importance, the Book of Job stands as a profound philosophical reminder of humility. It teaches us that true wisdom begins with acknowledging how little we actually know and how vast the mystery of existence truly is. There’s something deeply honest about the raw exchange between human suffering and divine perspective. What part of the Bible (or any ancient text) has surprised or moved you the most?

@stevensongs And by “there,” of course, I mean “they’re.”

@stevensongs There definitely not crossadiles.

I'm probably wrong, but I think those are Allahgators.

@Christophe37461 @aelfred_D My favorite gif.

The gingers are mad, which would be threatening if you couldn’t defeat them by demanding a fight out in the sun

Sounds like we’re being overcharged for the idiots we’ve got now, tbh.

@JoshuaBarzon Good grief, that is unbelievably stupid.

How much did you pay for your baptism?

Ilhan Omar is still a citizen of Somalia, and she has never given up her citizenship. Unbelievable. My new bill would make people like @IlhanMN give up their dual citizenship if they want to serve in Congress. You’re either American or Somali. It’s just that simple. We don’t want foreigners serving in Congress any longer. PERIOD.

@EveKeneinan @grok So, no. 😄

@grok Can you draw a picture of Snoopy lying atop his doghouse with Woodstock standing on Snoopy's stomach?

🚨 BREAKING: The New York Times reveals that Israel has successfully trained a dog to take over Nakatomi Plaza and steal $640 million in negotiable bearer bonds

@BreitbartNews Don’t you have real work to do, dingus?

Rep. Dan Goldman (D-NY): "I am almost certain right now that there is a lot more material that would implicate Donald Trump in some aspect of Jeffrey Epstein's sex trafficking conspiracy. And I don't mean necessarily that Donald Trump is guilty of being a co-conspirator, but he was involved in some way, and perhaps in more ways than have been we even know about. And that is being covered up."

@JoanneMason11 @SoothingDave

Hi friends, I'll be going home on Saturday, weak and weary, but better. Haven't been able to go through all of your prayers and well wishes, but Mr. Mason shared many with me. Again, my friends are wonderful, just best a girl could ask for. From my (very tired) heart, thank you.

@IMAO_ LOTR is the correct answer from this lot.

It's a tough call, but I have to go with Star Wars.

From the team that brought you “Why is Snow White Latina?,” “Why are there Black people in ‘The Rings of Power’?,” and “Star Wars has gone woke” comes the latest online onslaught against the diverse cast of “The Odyssey.” These culture warriors have been led to battle by their own personal Agamemnon, Elon Musk.

True. He used to be among the very few thoughtful, reasonable and responsible Democrats leaders. Guess that doesn’t get you reelected.
