@DeeremanJess @Lowes Exactly right. Im going to have to file a BBB complaint because my furniture order from Paris, TN store is just MIA. They don't care. Its been weeks

@Lowes We can’t build home with Lowe’s materials. First of all, Lowe’s can’t even get the materials to the job sites. Then, after 11 phone calls and everyone shirks responsibility, you still can’t find 100 sheets of drywall. Absolutely unbelievable and unacceptable.

Every day, they build homes, businesses and communities. 🛠️ At the Building Back America's Trades Blue Carpet Event, we celebrated the people behind the work. Tradespeople, mentors and leaders helping shape the future of the skilled trades came together to share their stories and be recognized for the impact they make every day. Because for one night, the spotlight belonged to them. 📺 Click here to watch Building Back America's Trades and meet the people behind the work: lowesfoundation.org/buildingback

@Lowes Paris, TN Lowes takes no responsibility for its supplier problems. If you want something from @Lowes, NEVER order it.

@Lowes I would avoid @Lowes at all costs if you ever need to order cabinets or doors. They can't keep track of their couriers. 3 times in the last year I've had orders that simply vanished from their system and no ETA. They'll then toss the problem over to the customer.

@hecubian_devil Honor your elders. Dont displace them out of envy.

@christywhy9 You already got it. X1000

@BraddrofliT "Someone". Ok, Brad.

Someone once said that religion has caused more misery to mankind throughout history than any other single idea. Looking at the wars, persecutions, and suffering committed in its name, it’s hard to dismiss the point.

@Davidm000 @archeohistories You know why though don't you

She walked into the arena knowing she would not walk out. Vibia Perpetua was just a young noblewoman in Roman Carthage—educated, privileged, and newly a mother—when she made a choice that would cost her everything. Around 203 CE, under the rule of Septimius Severus, converting to Christianity was seen not just as rebellion, but as a threat to the state itself. Perpetua was arrested alongside a small group of believers, including her pregnant servant, Felicity. What followed is one of the most intimate—and unsettling—records to survive from the ancient world. While imprisoned, Perpetua kept a diary. Not a legend written centuries later. Not a story shaped by others. Her own words. She described the darkness of the cell, the fear, the pressure—and the visits from her father, who begged her to renounce her faith. He pleaded as a parent, as a citizen, as a man desperate to save his daughter. He even brought her infant son to her, hoping it would break her resolve. It didn’t. Perpetua refused—not coldly, but with a clarity that feels almost impossible to understand. She believed she could not deny what she had become. And in a world where women were expected to obey, yield, and survive quietly, that refusal was its own kind of rebellion. The story grows even more striking. Felicity, heavily pregnant in prison, feared she would be spared execution—Roman law forbade the killing of pregnant women. According to the account, she prayed to give birth early so she could die alongside the others. She did. Days before the execution. When the day came, the women were sent into the arena. The crowd expected fear, spectacle, submission. Instead, witnesses described something else entirely. Calm. Even defiance. Perpetua is said to have guided the trembling hand of the young gladiator sent to kill her—steadying him when he hesitated. It’s a moment that has echoed for centuries—not because of violence, but because of control. In the final seconds of her life, she refused to be reduced to a victim. Her diary, preserved in what became known as The Passion of Perpetua and Felicity, is one of the earliest surviving texts written by a Christian woman. But beyond its religious significance, it reveals something raw and human: fear, love, conviction, and a will that would not bend—even under unimaginable pressure. © Women In World History #archaeohistories

@Jhoge04 @PhysInHistory What is so "obvious "?

@PhysInHistory His contributions to quantum physics are commendable but be was obviously wrong on this lol.

“Both religion and science require a belief in God. For believers, God is in the beginning, and for physicists He is at the end of all considerations… To the former He is the foundation, to the latter, the crown of the edifice of every generalized world view.” - Max Planck

@A_Philosopher @PhysInHistory Michael Perilstein wants to compare brain pans with the great Max Planck

@PhysInHistory • Planck was a deeply superstitious man whose severe emotional tragedies caused him to be religious. This was the case, even though there was a clear conflict that should have caused him cognitive dissonance. But he failed to see it, because he wanted to fail to see it. •

@llbuythat @wahlstedt007 Same way we felt under Obama and Biden. But you grow up and move on with your life.

@wahlstedt007 After the election, it was deep depression. Every day since DT went into office it’s been unending chaos & hell. Your mind screams, “who can save us?” but you know there is no one so you plod on & just hope ONE DAY he will receive justice, jail time & the humiliation he deserves

As a German, I find the political situation in United States very stressful. How hard must it be for the American people???

@BlkBird444 That price was already paid in Union soldier blood.

Black American Descendants of “Chattel” Slavery may not agree on everything, but the one thing we do agree on is REPARATIONS! We know that a debt is owed and the government must pay it. #ReparationsNow

@krassenstein In fairness, you would say he's the most mentally capable President that ever existed and that no reasonable person would conclude he did anything wrong.

Honest Answers Only: If Biden Posted this image and then 17 hours later claimed that it depicted him as a doctor, what would MAGA say? I know that as a Democrat I would be saying that he was mentally ill and calling for his immediate resignation.

@JurrasicPo31235 @RachelTrue Do you pay money to renew your driver's license anyway, or state ID, or passport? Of course you do. Not a "poll tax". You're probably cool with Obamacare penalties for not having insurance though I'll bet. A tax just for being alive.

@j40087729 @RachelTrue Sounds like you’re OK with the fees people will incur in order to obtain necessary paperwork because of the SAVE act You are supporting a poll tax. Not very American of you.

It’s not the IDs It’s the cost & specificity of IDs required It’s a poll tax A birth certificate costs min $45 Passports are $150 Money that could go toward bills If they wanted to help 🇺🇸 vote They’d give out free IDs UnAmerican Save Act is taxation w/o representation

@RepJayapal Because the rich are not "working" people?

Great news! I’ve officially re-introduced the Ultra-Millionaire Tax Act to make sure the ultra-rich pay their fair share. Our tax system needs urgent reform — this is an important step to address wealth inequality and level the playing field for working people.

@sanchezcastejon You aren't in a position to "demand" anything. Sir back and watch the show if you don't want to help.

The Government of Spain demands the opening of Hormuz and the preservation of all the energy sites of the Middle East. We stand at a global tipping point. Further escalation could trigger a long-term energy crisis for all humanity. The world should not pay the consequences of this war.

@JamieBonkiewicz And you don't, if you leave your last name unchanged. But if you do, you sign up for complexity

Women should not have to do one single extra fucking thing to vote than men

@BraddrofliT Your post is about abortion. That is all. Admit it.

If Iran is evil for being a religious theocracy that controls women and enforces religion through the state… Then what’s the difference between that and the Christian nationalist movement growing in the United States?

@Milajoy Thats his JOB. He's just enforcing the laws on the books.

Who voted for Tom Homan to forcibly REMOVE illegals from our country?

@sunsungirly That's your taxes. Keep voting yourselves into poverty i guess

Who will Trump blame for this?

@AnnieForTruth So when food prices skyrocketed under Biden, y'all were fine because we had to do without for the people of Ukraine. Now, you don't want to do the same to free Iranians?

Our gas went up 30 cents overnight! Oh, but those eggs are still cheap! 🙄
