So much noise online regarding the term "judeo-Christian." Guys -- in academia it's simply the term that describes the combined corpus of Old and New Testaments. The Jewish heritage of the Hebrew scriptures combined with the New Testament. That's it. I know you want there to be some conspiracy but there isnt, that's the way we're using it. It has nothing to do with geo-politics or a one world order.
@ShamashAran Honest question: Why? The time change makes perfect sense to me, adjust the clock twice a year so that "midday" is roughly at the height of sunlight. Diurnal humans function off the sun. Why not adjust "time" so we can do that efficiently. I don't understand hate for that process
🚨🚨🚨🚨Today the U.S. House passed the Sunshine Protection Act, advancing legislation that would make Daylight Saving Time permanent nationwide. This is the biggest legislative step this issue has taken in years but it is not law. The bill now moves to the U.S. Senate, where there is still an opportunity for it to be debated, amended, or rejected. If you care about health and circadian biology, this is the time to speak up. The scientific case against permanent DST has become increasingly strong: • Morning light is the most powerful signal for synchronizing the human circadian clock. • Permanent DST delays sunrise for much of the year, especially in winter, reducing exposure to morning light when our brains need it most. • Later sunrises are associated with chronic circadian misalignment, sleep loss, poorer mood, reduced alertness, and increased cardiometabolic risk. • Studies comparing western versus eastern portions of time zones consistently show worse health outcomes where people experience later sunrises despite sharing the same clock time. • The American Academy of Sleep Medicine and numerous sleep and circadian experts recommend permanent Standard Time, not permanent DST, as the option that best aligns with human biology. The argument for permanent DST is largely one of convenience and preference for lighter evenings. The argument for permanent Standard Time is one of physiology and public health. If you believe our laws should reflect the best available scientific evidence, now is the time to respectfully contact your U.S. Senators. Tell them that while ending the twice-yearly clock changes is a worthy goal, permanent Daylight Saving Time is not the healthiest solution. Ask them instead to support permanent Standard Time, which preserves the morning light our circadian system depends on. Please REPOST this. The Senate has not yet voted, and informed voices can still make a difference. @LeaderJohnThune is the Senate majority leader that will determine when this legislation comes to the Senate for debate. He should know how you feel.
They banned DIFFERENT SEASONS in Utah. Contains STAND BY ME and THE SHAWSHANK REDEMPTION, stories of friendship and courage. Readable by teens, too. What's wrong with these people?
I recently spoke to a woman who works in marketing at a big five publishing house. She told me that her imprint represents zero conservative fiction authors. Zero. But a healthy literary culture should feature novels written by conservatives, liberals, Christians, atheists, feminists, socialists, traditionalists—and everyone in between. Instead, we're getting an ideological monoculture.
“We noticed you don’t have a primary care physician on record. Would you be interested in setting up an appointment with Dr Patel?” Um no thanks. You got any -steins or -bergs? “Sir I’m not sure what you’re implying” I’ll take a -ski if you got one
Candace Owens and Tyler Robinson have reportedly maintained a secret affair in prison. Candace has visited him over a dozen times according to credible sources. Everything is about to drop.

Frozen. Colorful. Questionably nutritious.🥤
World building plays a surprisingly small role in the crafting of quality fantasy and science fiction. A lot of aspiring writers seem more interested in world building than creating a story worth reading.

BREAKING: The House has passed legislation to make Daylight Saving Time permanent nationwide, ending the twice-a-year clock changes by a 308-117 vote. Backed by President Trump, the bill now heads to the Senate. If approved and signed into law, Americans would no longer have to change their clocks.
So long as we're talking Tropes, if I never see another "Secretly Evil Church" it will be too soon It's not even a bad trope, its just been beaten into the center of the earth by some of the cringiest people imaginable
