The Sabbath is fulfilled in Christ (Matt. 11:28-30). I respect the views of friends who disagree. But we live by the FINISHED work of Christ. We possess rest *at all times.* We need not enforce Sabbath-keeping, whether at home or in society. Jesus the Fulfiller has come!

"Don't fall for that sh*t. It's not worth it."

Anglos learned to be orderly and polite because we figured out that if everyone did that, it made for a very nice society. But if everyone doesn't do that, the ones who do just get screwed. So whites are going to unlearn orderly politeness.

Friends don't let friends continue to give exams and papers that are not adapted to the current AI landscape (this is AFTER 27 bailed so the reality is even worse) PS Props to students 1, 22, and 31

It’s popular to hate boomers, but when I took my entire family to see Young Washington to an early morning showing, the theater was full of boomer chud patriots, we were the only young family there, and they all praised me for taking my children to it. Wonderful people. They might not “get it” like young people do and take whatever Fox News says as gospel, but they love our country a lot. We don’t appreciate them enough. Mystery Grove made a point in his review of the movie (you should stop being a free subscriber immediately) that you see this dynamic in the movie. Washington was an ambitious young guy who “got it” but made a mess of everything the first chance he had at wielding authority as young people often do. The older general who didn’t “get it” was dismissive of him because of his own extensive experience and Washington’s lack thereof. This was a guy who didn’t “get it” but very obviously was competent and understood how things work. He was a professional soldier who knew how to command an army but just didn’t get how to fight in those conditions. What Washington did was demonstrate his own competence and gained the older man’s trust over time. Eventually the older man came to see his virtue and handed command over to him as he was dying (no idea if that actually happened irl, doesn’t matter tbh). This is often the disconnect that young people have with Boomers. As much as they “don’t get it,” they know how the world works in ways that young people do not, and there is a lot we can learn from them. When we are young we actually know way less than we think we do and older people we think of as aloof understand the world better than we do despite the lack of updating their priors. We should have a lot more humility in dealing with them than we do, and should work hard to demonstrate that we are trustworthy to them as much as we can. Anyway, both the subtle message of the movie and the audience for it that I interacted with made this point to me. There are obviously issues with the boomer generation, but constant war with them is not going to make things better for anybody. Better to accept their shortcomings and meet them where they are, and do what must be done to make things better for all of us.

Feminists are really mad about this news
