@lee_trepanier Looks fascinating!

This book links the questions people ask about why things exist, why the world is the way it is, and whether and how it is possible to change their society. bloomsbury.com/us/possibility…

@41KOOR @LutheranAnswers Maybe you should just log off.

@LutheranAnswers The best thing you could do is live a life of repentant silence.

One difficulty Christians have to deal with: We have no written record of Jesus - at all, anywhere - until the mid-to-late first century.

@ct_unite This reads like AI.

1/ 🚨 CT GOP Convention shocker: Erin Stewart walked in with 650+ pledged delegates out of ~1,100. Clear frontrunner. Three days ago: Massive fiscal abuse scandal drops — city credit card used for personal/family spending while Mayor. Thursday: She withdraws. Hours later? Full-throated endorsement of Ryan Fazio. Not one phone call to Betsy McCaughey.

@InfraHaz ACP has 300 members, remember. That’s quite a small “Third Estate,” world-historically speaking.

Thomas Massie, Majorie Taylor-Green, Ro Khanna, and other principled members of congress should immediately declare a third party electoral coalition ahead of the midterms. This would greatly assist new anti-Epstein politicians to unseat duopoly shills. America needs a Tribune of the People, an ORGANIZED voice in congress that speaks ONLY FOR THE PEOPLE, not the bribed shills of Israel and corporate America. The coalition should be united by 1) Opposing corporate/foreign money in politics. 2) Opposing warmongering and foreign aid. 3) Opposing all laws that favor monopolistic corporate interests. 4) Protecting the constitutional liberties of the American people. This is the basic foundation upon which Americans can later discuss, debate, and discover a more positive vision of what kind of country they want to be. For now, the country is occupied and popular sovereignty in the first place must be restored. Right now, only two estates exist in America. Estate 1: The Epstein monopoly bourgeoisie Estate 2) The Intelligence Community, Military deep state + Duopoly machine The 3rd estate, the American people, lack any voice or representation. Principled elected representatives have a unique opportunity to create a platform upon which Americans may freely decide their future. We need a new generation of Americans to run for office under a new Third Party coalition, unseat established, corrupt politicians. AMERICANS ARE READY TO DITCH THE DUOPOLY. They just lack self-awareness, representation and confidence. Massie, MTG and others have a unique opportunity to lead the way in giving that to them.

Modern society hates Homer. It hates him because his works shaped Western television and formed the foundation of a civilization built on Duff beer, jovial fatness, and choking Bart. Lisa wants to show you a world without these.

@realJohnCohen archive.org/details/tradit… Fred Vaughan touched on some of these themes in his book on political hedonism.

The recent discourse around Rousseau has been entertaining, to say the least. Perusing X is akin to taking a stroll through the agora.

@Kittycel66 The better question is genuinely why did the BBC make this video at all

genuinely why did BBC make kaiser wilhelm II so fruity

Can you reduce all of political philosophy to one diagram? A pretty good attempt. (From a book on Machiavelli by Gabriele Pedulla.)

The Great Western Tradition of me waiting until the last possible moment to submit grades

@Kimberl63981557 Details???

He should resign for what he did in the Virgin Islands so he can't do it to Connecticut

@fyodor_carlyle @amantdelucy Out of curiosity where did you find this picture?

@amantdelucy Goyim clap like seals when rich people say they’ll leave their kids with no inheritance and will refuse to enroll them in private schools. 🤔 I could help my child, but the goyim actually would prefer if I burn the money instead.

Goyim are deeply comforted and fascinated by the idea that the real upper class “don’t like to show off” and “are actually very low key.”

@eanunez_ @nesialtaras And one that he’d never join based on his own merits. Pathetic.

@nesialtaras while scabbing a union that you’re not a part of btw. it’s insane

Crazy way to say “im just rich”

@RobertDenomme1 @WTNH Why do degenerate gamblers matter more than voters? Consider posting polls, or even logging off. This is the third time I’ve seen you post this today.

@WTNH We Republicans are glad she dropped out. We didn’t want her anyway.

Governor Ned Lamont (D-Conn.) said Thursday he respects former New Britain Mayor Erin Stewart’s decision to suspend her gubernatorial campaign, saying he knows how tough the decision was. wtnh.com/news/connectic…

@realJohnCohen What are the American people worth, then

The worth of a people is likely discernible in its laws.

"Harvey C. Mansfield’s Honorable Quest To Educate Harvard," RealClearPolitics, May 10, 2026 In a 1975 essay exploring Leo Strauss’ interpretation of Machiavelli, Harvey C. Mansfield asserts that “no paragraph in The Prince and the Discourses has been understood until you have found something funny in it.” Consequently, advises Mansfield, “If you are not in more or less constant amusement when reading Machiavelli’s books, you should consider yourself bewildered.” Mansfield’s amusing observations about the philosophical importance of amusement to Machiavelli’s exploration of serious matters applies to Mansfield’s many writings, certainly his amusingly titled new book, “Where Harvard Went Wrong: Fifty Years of Commentary that Fell on Deaf Ears.” . . . realclearpolitics.com/articles/2026/…

@FudgeSmith111 A Boreing vanity project!

I still laugh at the fact that the Daily Wire is collapsing because they spent millions on a boring vanity project.

Usually, the truth of any matter is precisely the opposite of what the Guardian argues.

@CohenJohn48061 🔥

@JackYau1111 @XiaoVilin99 I’m curious who, precisely, you think this is pissing off?

@XiaoVilin99 It's pissing off all the right people. That's an objective measure of its greatness.

There are provincial museums full of Victorian tea sets covered in hand-painted, simpering field mice in smocks and bonnets which are less kitsch and played out than this.

It's funny how in the end the bitterest clinger of them all was Obama himself.
