@PNWSnowflake123 @vinniedeltaco @bdquinn To be honest--and I haven't dined out in LV much--the best Chinese food I've had was when I worked in Monterey Park. The whole San Gabriel Valley is LA's de facto Chinatown.

What's the most overrated city in the country and why is it Las Vegas?

@PNWSnowflake123 @bdquinn I will take the offerings of our Chinatown over anywhere else in the country with zero hesitation.

@DutchBadlands @ZrimecSteve @Ameen_HGA You must be new here. The right/left distinction you lean on would be a lot more persuasive if Conservative principles weren't repeatedly abandoned in favor of power over the last ten years

Yall sure don’t say this if you hear of a Christian casting a vote for a Democrat lol.
Esp if it’s black Christians voting for Democrats.
Megan Basham@megbasham
Casting a vote is not a signal of someone’s eternal devotion. It’s just choosing the best available set of policies and personnel. That’s it.

@BMcGrewvy That's not bricking because the old Kindles (I think I have one in that range) will still operate. They just won't receive updates and so won't be able to get new content wirelessly. I suspect non-DRM'd books could still be loaded on via USB.
English
Phew, good to know my 11-year-old Kindle paperwhite isn't getting bricked. Yet. Can I expect this to happen in a few more years?
Katie Notopoulos@katienotopoulos
This is A NIGHTMARE. Amazon is bricking old Kindles, including my beloved Kindle 5 (with the side buttons). I hate the touch screen versions, I've tried them and I'm always accidentally flipping pages.

@jwsherrod We prosecute those who threaten the innocent, regardless of their willingness to follow through.
Because the threat itself is harmful, and we don't want a world where such threats are normalized.
He needs to be removed immediately.

@jwsherrod There is a reason that Iran threatens mass murder and Israel, Pakistan, and India do not.

I talked to some IRL Trump supporters today who had worried faces after reading his tweet, and I don’t think they understood why I was smiling when it came up in conversation. I tried to calm them down and reminded them that you have to take Trump seriously, but not literally.
Will Chamberlain@willchamberlain
I’d like to thank everyone on the right who spazzed out and started talking about the 25th Amendment, you did a great job convincing the Iranians that Trump really was crazy and probably helped our negotiators

@TCSDisciple @not_our_guy Oh man, I missed it. "The troll's name was Mac, and his bridge was very famous. He also had an island, full of horses and poop."
English
@not_our_guy Did he just take a screenshot of Lake Superior and use it as the basis of the fantasy cartography for his fanfic? Almost as unoriginal as shoehorning his ideology into it 😂

This cringe wignat neopagan turner diary tier fantasy novel that was given to me by some guy in patriot front
Interbellica@interbellica
What's the most hoe-scaring book you own?
English
@not_our_guy Real smart putting the fantasy map on the cover to save money on a color insert.
English
@jwsherrod Surely, if you know his mind, you can share with us why he started this war?
English
@MdtShell I was smiling because I understand how Trump operates, so I understood there was no reason to actually take the apocalyptic interpretation of his Truth Social posts that many were coming away with.

@NoisyTroublemkr @NeilShenvi It's not a "worldview" curriculum that would teach this, but orthodoxy.
English
@NoisyTroublemkr @NeilShenvi No, I do not see. Nowhere did I say a single Christian ethic has emerged, because the Bible is not clear on HOW we care for the poor, only that we must.
English
What's a good Christian worldview curriculum for high schoolers?

@greateststriker @HwsEleutheroi If (big if) CAHSR starts running, the trains aren't dropped in the Atlantic after one trip. Orion can be reused with refurbishment, but SLS's 4xRS-25 engines, originally resuable on the Shuttle, are dropped expended on each flight.
English
@greateststriker @HwsEleutheroi Artemis isn't the example you should reach for. That's the point. It's a dead end program that could have been far sooner, cheaper, and better if not for pork.
English
The level of corruption in the government of the United States at all levels is the PRIMARY reason for our slavery to debt and the coming economic collapse.
English
@greateststriker @HwsEleutheroi So when the first train runs (if ever) the cost is only thr trainset itself?
That's not how NASA costs are evaluated.
English
@MdtShell @HwsEleutheroi Mark, that's still $89 billion more than the rocket....

@joe_rigney @dan_djsr @AmReformer The Solomon story makes sense (which is manifestly not prescriptive/permissive) because the mother cared more for the child than herself.
Trump's threat of mass murder makes no sense because the regime cares nothing for the innocent millions Trump threatened.
English
I walk away from the Solomon story thinking, “This is an exemplar of righteous wisdom in governance,” because that’s how the passage presents the story.
Then I examine the example and note the presence of the (credible) threat of violence against an innocent.
And so I conclude that such threats are permissible as part of righteous wisdom in governance.
English
Over at @AmReformer, I address Trump’s rhetoric around Iran (“a whole civilization will die”), asking whether such rhetoric is morally permissible (and answering with the help of Shakespeare and the Scriptures).

@DrSampler @KeeganHall So, watching the video, I have a theory:
As a lefty, he is already practiced at keeping his hand from smearing the graphic across the page. That's probably why he can maintain so much detail across such a large piece. It would be smudgeville if I tried anything like that.
English
This is absolutely stunning. Even if you're not a golf fan, you have to be amazed at @KeeganHall's talent. Click the thread and watch the video in the last tweet. Simply amazing.
Joe Pompliano@JoePompliano
Rory McIlroy commissioned this pencil drawing after last year's Masters Tournament. The artist (@KeeganHall) provided context on Reddit: • Spent 6+ months working on it • Estimates 600-800+ total hours • Worked on it 6-7 days each week • Uses a Pentel Graphgear mechanical pencil Hall says this piece was incredibly challenging because so much detail went into such a small area. For context, the original is smaller than 30x22, so each face in the crowd is essentially a quarter of the size of a fingernail. This is the second piece he has done for Rory.
