@mattvanswol It's almost like those "leaders" can't actually lead. Huh.
English
@MAGAVoice Yeah. It's almost like defunding government disease boards and discouraging vaccines makes viruses more prevalent.
Huh.

@Principal_Jon (To be clear, I don't think *everyone* needs to go to college, but pretending like it all boils down to money...well, it's a bit myopic).
English
@Principal_Jon Because there are more benefits to education than money.

@loonlake55 @Antonio82687742 Now do the stat the other way around: what percentage of Millennials use DoorDash? Just bc Millennials are the primary customers, it does not follow that most Millennials are using DoorDash.
English

DoorDash is used most heavily by 25–34-year-olds, who make up roughly 31% to 46% of the user base. Millennials and Gen Z (roughly 18–44) are the primary consumers, often seeking convenience, immediacy, and mobile-first experiences, with high usage also seen in adults up to age 44 for family and work needs (sure as shit isn't the Boomers)

Too many young people are resenting Boomers, claiming that Boomers had it " easy " financially in their youth. Here are a few fun facts about growing up Boomer.
1. Almost everyone grew up with one bathroom. Mom, Dad and all 3-6 siblings.
2. If you did get to take a vacation, you drove. With no air conditioning. No cup holders. No iPads. Just black vinyl seats and bologna sandwiches.
3. There were no club sports. No Parks and Rec activities. Summer camp was for rich kids. Get yourself a bike, a stick and a few friends. If you were bored, you laid in the grass and looked at clouds.
4. You ate what was served. Even if it was chicken livers. No DoorDash, no backup Totino's rolls.
5. No AP classes, no PSEO, no "fun" elective. They assigned you to a class. You went. You did what they asked. Or else.
6. Unless you had rich parents, you had a nice VFW wedding. Maybe rent a room at a modest hotel.
7. Most Boomers got their first pedi and mani in their 50s (when their feet got farther away). We didn't even know people got massages in real life, only in Hollywood.
8. You packed your own lunch for decades.
9. No one knew what red light therapy was, a facial, a spa day, or a cold plunge. Your gym was the YMCA. Usually in a rather old building.
10. We grew up with 18 percent inflation, 14 percent mortgage rates, 3 million continuing unemployment claims, and 200 other applicants competing for the same job.
Now, this is not to say Millenials and Gen Z have it easy or don't face problems. It's just to say, nobody has it easy or doesn't face problems.
My only hope, as my mom would say, is I live long enough to see my kids' kids complain about how easy they had it!

@ronrule If I'm a pacifist, can I be exempt from the portion of my taxes that goes to war?

Once an abuser, always an abuser.

Trump: "We're gonna have to force ourselves upon them, which we have the right to do"
English
@dandarling Kimmel didn't imply he wasn't smart or intellectual. He implied he didn't know anything about terrorism.
English

Man I hate this stuff . Maybe because my dad is a retired plumber. Guys who run businesses have smarts and intellect that are invaluable.
CJ Pearson@Cjpearson
Jimmy Kimmel: "Before he was elected to the Senate, Markwayne Mullin was plumber. That's right. We have a plumber protecting us from terrorism now." The elitism of Hollywood summarized in one moment. 👇

@danwhitejr I do appreciate that we need to keep our motives in check, but silence isn't the answer.
English
@danwhitejr When politicians use & abuse theology and pastors (including myself) comment on it, it isn't because I'm stepping into the politicians' arena. It's because they've stepped into mine.
English
@graber_julie @NJBeisner Where is that in Scripture? And before you say "Romans 13", remember that the guy who wrote Romans 13 was thrown in jail multiple times for...wait for it...not obeying the law.
English

America was actually founded as a Christian nation, and our laws and institutions should actually reflect Christian values.
This is very distinct from “forcing Christianity down your throat” or not allowing freedom of religion. Indeed, it is our Christian founding that is the very basis of freedom of religion.
And no one is forcing conversion on you, which is actually impossible in Christianity.
Recognizing our history, our Founders, and the basis of our Constitution and moral framework isn’t scary or coercive.

@Pastor_Gabe Jesus jumped in the quicksand and experienced it with us. It's the point of the incarnation.
According to your definition above, that's empathy.
English
@EASTWOODX It's almost like he's afraid of what will come out in discovery. Huh.
English

Soooo….. are we gonna talk about this?
Never thought I’d see the day President Trump would be defending President Clinton.
Why does it feel like people have lost their integrity? Like we should all be talking about this.
Bill Clinton is without a doubt a pedophile and was deeply involved with Epstein.
Why is President Trump defending Pedo Bill Clinton?

@TheRealThelmaJ1 That's what I want my taxes to go to. A 35 foot tall golden statue.
