When they scream, "No Kings!" They are rejecting Jesus Christ. They are rejecting His work on the cross. They are rejecting His resurrection. Is it mere coincidence that they plan their denial on the weekend of Palm Sunday?

@MaritimeHorrors Oof! Sounds like an episode of Gold Rush.

Amd the bearing on the conveyor shredded itself. So now we're going to take about 12 hours to fix it

Finally we've made it and are offloading. Starting out on the 23rd of March in Superior, Wisconsin for fit out. Going to Two Harbors, Minnesota to load. Across Lake Superior, Almost five days in the Saint Mary's river in ice. Then down across Lake Huron and Lake Erie to Conneaut, Ohio. What's usually a 4 day trip over 800 miles took us nearly twice as long. Rough start to the season.

@BadgedPatriot I had a friend who was a patriot. All in for his country. Until after the country paid for his masters degree and subsequent raise in rank prior to... his filing for intent to retire from service. Now he bad mouths his country. What a phony.

Went into a store to get a cup of coffee & an older gentleman wearing a Vietnam War cap offered to buy it for me. I immediately said only if u let me buy yours. So, in the end it was a wash, but I stood & talked to him for a few minutes. I love talking to my elders especially veterans. There is no better human in this world to me than a person who loves & respects their country. This is one of the things I love most about X is getting to talk to like minded Patriots like all of u. I appreciate all of you👍

@I_see_changes @BabyD1111229 Kinda disturbing.

This really made me wonder. I just wish I'd run across the article much sooner. >>> After testing the weird elements to the latest version of Grok, talk stayed in the realm of AI, venturing on to the topic of sex robots. Naturally. Conversation (Rogan & Musk, Mar 4, 2025) veered towards how AI technology could power such creations and what might happen when they eventually come to the open market to be bought. On when we could expect them, Musk said it 'probably wont be long' until we get them on the hypothetical shelves." Less than five years probably," Musk added. Responding, Rogan said: "Really? Will it be warm?"Musk said: "You can probably have whatever you want."Chat then moved even more left field on to having robot sex with a 'furry lady' or alien from the Avatar films. Each to their own.

I hope you will read Dave Ramsey’s comments about going cashless. It’s a two minute read and NO one has explained it better. Please take 2 minute's and read! Dave Ramsey repost: HERE'S WHAT NO CASH ACTUALLY MEANS: A cashless society means no cash. Zero. It doesn’t mean mostly cashless and you can still use a ‘wee bit of cash here & there’. Cashless means fully digital, fully traceable, fully controlled. I think those who support a cashless society aren’t fully aware of what they are asking for. A cashless society means: * If you are struggling with your mortgage on a particular month, you can’t do an odd job to get you through. * Your child can’t go & help the local farmer to earn a bit of summer cash. * No more cash slipped into the hands of a child as a good luck charm or from their grandparent when going on holidays. * No more money in birthday cards. * No more piggy banks for your child to collect pocket money & to learn about the value of earning. * No more cash for a rainy day fund or for that something special you have been putting $20 a week away for. * No more little jobs on the side because your wages barely cover the bills or put food on the table. * No more charity collections. * No more selling bits & pieces from your home that you no longer want/need for a bit of cash in return. * No more cash gifts from relatives or loved ones. What a cashless society does guarantee: * Banks have full control of every single penny you own. * Every transaction you make is recorded. * All your movements & actions are traceable. * Access to your money can be blocked at the click of a button when/if banks need ‘clarification’ from you which will take about 3 weeks, a thousand questions answered & five thousand passwords. * You will have no choice but to declare & be taxed on every dollar in your possession. * The government WILL decide what you can & cannot purchase. * If your transactions are deemed in any way questionable, by those who create the questions, your money will be frozen, ‘for your own good’. Forget about cash being dirty. Stop being so easily led. Cash has been around for a very, very, very long time & it gives you control over how you trade with the world. It gives you independence. If you are a customer, pay with cash. If you are a shop owner, remove those ridiculous signs that ask people to pay by card. Cash is a legal tender, it is our right to pay with cash. Banks are making it increasingly difficult to lodge cash. Please open your eyes. Please stop believing everything you are being told. Almost every single topic in today’s world is tainted with corruption & hidden agendas. Pay with cash & please say no to a cashless society while you still have the choice. #Truth

@TheMuppetPastor @sandyredux39144 Did my soul well for my son to ask me, "Dad, what is the difference between Yahweh and Elohim?" IYKYK

Why are children so important? It is easy for us to look at them as a time consuming but necessary investment for the future. Some people treat their children like annoyances who get in the way of work. In our sinful pride, we miss that they teach us as much as we teach them! Any parent can tell you that whatever you thought of love and patience, you’ll increase in both with kids. We learn the value of placing other people before ourselves. We understand humility in a brand new way, and we learn from their innocent observations that there are different ways to see the world. Yes, it is our job to teach children many important lessons in life, and we must do so. But anyone who thinks this is a one way street is lying. Children have taught me the joy of enjoying the first flowers of spring or an autumn sunset. They help me appreciate the happy times I have with my mother. They relive my favorite music. They adore our family pets. They teach me so much about the beauty of life and why it’s worth protecting. Is it any wonder that Jesus adored children, too? When the disciples tried to stop children for seeing Him: “But when Jesus saw it, he was indignant and said to them, “Let the children come to me; do not hinder them, for to such belongs the kingdom of God. Truly, I say to you, whoever does not receive the kingdom of God like a child shall not enter it.”” Mark 10:14-15 ESV The Kingdom of God belongs to innocent children who love purely and happily! And more importantly, we adults will not enter the Kingdom unless we do so with the innocence of a child. We have to leap into Jesus’ arms like a toddler, knowing Daddy will never let us fall. Children have unapologetically strong faith, not because they know everything, but because they love and trust people who love them. And it doesn’t need to be more complicated than that. Yes, we have complex theological terms which require a doctorate to understand, but the simplicity of the gospel can be understood by a five year old.

@I_see_changes @BabyD1111229 Makes one wonder...

@stone2668 @BabyD1111229 With aniahlation of mankind as the goal?

@Biblicalman @sandyredux39144 Most useful and appropriate post I've seen all day. Thank you.

I had a dog for four years that never barked. Other dogs would walk past the yard. He'd look at them. That's it. Just look. No teeth. No growling. Just a slow turn of the head that said: I know what I can do. I don't need to prove it. The neighbors would stop and tell me what a great dog he was. Then something changed. Don't know what flipped. But now every dog that walks by — every single one — he loses his mind. Barking. Snarling. The neighbor's dog barks; he barks back. That dog barks, he barks back. All day. My neighbors don't come by anymore. You know what changed? He got insecure. The dog that used to sit in silence because he knew who he was started barking at everything because he forgot. That's Christian X right now. Every account railing at every other account. Back and forth. Railing. Railing. Railing. Railing. Two dogs on a fence line until the whole neighborhood is noise, and nobody remembers who started it. I got railed yesterday. Palm Sunday. By Christians. While I was at church, teaching. The Bible has a word for what they did. Railing. It also has an answer. "Not rendering evil for evil, or railing for railing: but contrariwise blessing." — 1 Peter 3:9 Railing is almost always accompanied by accusation. That's why you respond. You receive it as an attack, and your gut says, "I have to defend myself." No, you don't. Christ didn't. "Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not." — 1 Peter 2:23 You do not have to respond to every accusation. People with sense already know the truth. "The simple believeth every word: but the prudent man looketh well to his going." — Proverbs 14:15 Someone has to stop barking. Someone has to sit down in the yard and remember who he is. And whose yard it is. I've been the barking dog. On this platform. I pulled the trigger last year. I know what a warm gun feels like. I'm done barking. Five secrets to loving life and seeing good days. Straight from 1 Peter 3. I wrote the full thing on Dead Hidden. Free...

@Mr_Husky1 My keys have to be IN the ignition switch for my car to 'turn on.' I'm grateful.

I have lost my keys inside my car. Not locked, LOST. To clarify: My car turned on. My car will only turn on if the keys are inside of it. So they must be in the car. Yet I cannot find my keys. My car is not messy. There is very little in it. I’ve looked everywhere. And yet, the keys are nowhere to be found. But they have to be here. Hence, I have lost my keys in my car. What … and I cannot stress this enough … the f*ck?

@I_see_changes @BabyD1111229 Robotics, Digital ID, and Robot-hybrids all share the same fatal flaw... connectivity. Add AI, and the result will be an insane toxic mix.

Having spent several decades watching this reality be established, I've spent several months watching AI grow, listening to Elon Musk and his "partner" discuss the use of robot-hybrid parts to assist people with disabilities, I felt compelled to ask GOOGLE AI and then GROK how far the use of organic/hybrid integration has advanced. I think you'll agree the responses are disturbing. I'll be adding links, if permitted. It is NOT just our jobs we have to worry about. People in AI describe it as "When Man evolved... when they become gods." Piece by piece, "improvements" can be made that make us less and less human. Just recently, Elon M. offered that within 6-12 months, people will be able to get their eyesight corrected, including the ability to see infrared. GOOGLE AI offered: The next phase of life organics mixed with robotics—often termed bio-hybrid robotics or living machines—is shifting from using traditional materials (silicon, plastic) to incorporating self-healing, living, and, in some cases, self-replicating organic components. This field merges synthetic biology with artificial intelligence, aiming to create robots that can grow, repair themselves, and adapt to organic environments, such as the human body or environmental ecosystems. a rather simple explanation about robots covered with living skin but "living human skin cells that can stretch, feel, and heal themselves when damaged", and creating "tiny, programmable "living machines" constructed entirely from frog cells. These, as well as new iterations, are designed to move, self-assemble, and function without conventional electronic parts". "These biological robots have demonstrated the ability to create "offspring" by gathering cells to build new robots that move and behave like their parents" etc. etc. GROK goes into so much more. **The next phase of "Life Organics" mixed with robotics** is already here—and it's called **biohybrid robotics** (or "living robots"). This isn't sci-fi speculation; it's the active merging of biological (organic) materials—like living cells, tissues, muscles, and even skin—with robotic frameworks. It represents a fundamental shift from purely mechanical machines to systems that grow, heal, adapt, self-replicate, and operate using biology's own energy and intelligence. ### What "Life Organics + Robotics" Looks Like Today - **Xenobots**: The world's first "living robots," created in 2020–2021 from frog stem cells (Xenopus laevis). Scientists use AI to design them, then hand-assemble the cells into tiny, programmable organisms. These millimeter-sized blobs can move, carry payloads, work in swarms, heal themselves, and even self-replicate by gathering loose cells into "offspring." No genes are edited—just rearranged biology acting as a robot. - **Muscle-powered biohybrids**: Living animal muscle tissue (often from rats or engineered cells) is grown onto 3D-printed scaffolds to create actuators. These "bots" walk, swim, grip, or pump—powered by glucose instead of batteries. Recent advances (2024–2025) have made them 5x more efficient, self-training, and capable of complex movement. - **Organic skins and sensors**: Lab-grown human skin (complete with hair follicles and nerves) has been applied to robot faces for realistic touch and self-healing. Mushroom mycelium has even been used as a "brain" to control robots via electrical signals from light or other stimuli. These aren't metal machines with add-on biology—they're hybrid systems where the organic part *is* the robot's muscles, sensors, or even processor. .. The line between organism and robot is dissolving. Labs are already building faster, smarter, more lifelike versions every year. If you're thinking about this as the future of "Life Organics," you're spot on—biology and robotics aren't competing anymore. They're becoming one. grok.com/share/c2hhcmQt…

I post this every year during Holy Week! 😂 It cracks me up every time. Good Christian humor.

@MitchMi68122792 @ChiefEngineerCE Are you fine with your tax dollars benefitting criminals?

@stone2668 @ChiefEngineerCE Fine. Complain if it makes you feel better. No different then taking out a loan and complaining about paying interest. Complain, then pay.

We owe $8,000 to the IRS because we withdrew money to take care of my wife's mother to move her near us so we can take care of her. Do you know how hard it is to see these stories showing the fraud and corruption taking place with our tax money when writing the check?

@MitchMi68122792 @ChiefEngineerCE Mitch. Let me help you out. We don't pay taxes, we get seriously penalized. Connected entities get our tax dollars, fraudulently, and there is rarely a consequence. Get it?

@ChiefEngineerCE I'm not questioning your reasons. I'm sure they are legitimate. But that's not the issue. You original post, as I remember, was talking about the IRS taxing this amount, along with most likely some penalties. My point is, you knew going into it that these taxes existed.

@ChiefEngineerCE @TheChiefNerd If one has any situational awareness at all, one does not render their existence and security to an artificial anything.

They are doing all this in a vacuum. They have so many assumptions and seriously one of the first things they have done is decided against looking at the risk register or consulting anyone at all about it. Have any of them walked into a small town in Nebraska and visited a gas station or hallmark store and thought what will this do to the folks here? Are they paying attention to anything at all? They seemingly cannot control it ...and reportedly they are all saying it goes from general intelligence to super intelligence in about 5 minutes or so? Seriously- I look at these people and think I wouldnt let them watch my kids, their values are literally insane, and we are going to let them create a guardian for our society?

🚨 Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei: “We are so close to these models reaching the level of human intelligence, and yet there doesn't seem to be a wider recognition in society of what's about to happen … There hasn't been a public awareness of the risks.”

🧵THREAD, NO KINGS IN THE SENATE?: The Helsinki Commission, the almighty foreign democracy operations arm of Congress The No Kings crowd marched today against the one branch of government where you can actually see who's in charge. They should try the Senate. At 3 AM on Friday, Thune passed a funding bill by voice vote. Funded everything except immigration enforcement. Just completely gave into the Democratic demands. Inside that Senate sits a body called the Helsinki Commission. No FOIA. No Inspector General. No records retention policy. It operates in permanent darkness, and what's hiding in there makes the 3 AM vote look transparent. Look at the two images below. Left: the booking photo. Right: the knife Capitol Police seized. A Helsinki Commission staffer drew this on a Capitol Police officer. March 8, 2019. He was arrested and booked. He was never fired. He was also photographed in Ukrainian military camo at a command post near Bakhmut. Investigators documented $87,400 in cash. Both parties buried it. The Ryan Routh assassination attempt connection sits in plain sight. The same NGO network running today's color revolution marches connects to the same Helsinki Commission infrastructure. Receipts below. As always, patience as I pull together the post. 👇

@payback8bx @SenatorWarnock Warlock is not very bright, just a parasitic tool.

@SenatorWarnock 🖕🖕🖕

It's already illegal to vote if you're not a citizen. They're trying to convince us there are droves of people who are willing to risk deportation and the abuse that we are seeing from ICE to vote illegally. It defies credulity and it's simply not true.

@Dipship75 @Ravious101 Who goes to jail first?

@stone2668 @Ravious101 Why pay taxes with the fraud and NG0 s... Politicians are stealing it... Spending nothing on infrastructure...

THE HUNTINGTON COUNTY INDIANA NEWS · Steve Harrison · · OPINION... I’m being taxed on money I never made. Let that sink in. I bought my property outright for $138,000 in 2001. Now the county says it’s worth $246,000. Did I sell it? No. Did I make a profit? No. Did I get a check for $246,000? No. But my taxes jumped like I did. That’s the problem. This isn’t income. This isn’t cash. This is a number someone decided on paper — and now I’m being billed for it. If my stock portfolio doubles, I don’t pay taxes until I sell. If my income doesn’t increase, I don’t magically owe more income tax. So why does owning a home work differently? Why am I being taxed on unrealized gains? A house isn’t just an investment — it’s where people live. And this system means you can do everything right, pay off your home, and still get squeezed harder every year because of a number you never turned into money. You don’t truly own something if you can be taxed out of it. This isn’t about “services” or “inflation.” It’s about being charged for value you never received. And people are starting to notice.

@cloudedjud53988 @Ravious101 We see the list of ingredients on/in a product - why not the litany of taxes as a percent of cost per itemized tax... PLUS sales tax?

@stone2668 @Ravious101 When we buy a product we aren't billed separately as expense,profit and taxes (except local and State) by the producer. The producer pays taxes on the profit we are paying those taxes& expenses (labor, materials, energy, shipping etc) in the price of the product.

"At about 3:00 this morning I was driving my 1 year old child to the hospital because he was having a hard time breathing. I ended up getting pulled over by 19th and Nebraska St. due to having a tail light and license plate light out. As the deputy was telling me why he pulled me over I explained to him where I was going. He opened up the back door to my vehicle and heard my sons labored breathing and told me to go ahead and get to the hospital. The officer that pulled me over was deputy Kyle Cleveringa. He followed me to the hospital, helped me carry my things into the ER, offered to hold my son while I filled out paper work, gave my son a stuffed toy truck, and was helping to comfort him by talking to him and giving him "hi-fives." My family and I are very thankful for deputy Cleveringa and everything he did for my son and I this morning. He went above and beyond and I cannot thank him enough. Could you please make sure he reads this and is made aware of how grateful we are that he pulled me over and helped me through that terrifying situation? Thank you so much Kyle! ...... P.S. My son is fine and I will fix those lights asap! Thank you again!!" Credit: Mindy Mathewson via Woodbury County Sheriff's Office
