Why Do Some People Still Wear Masks In 2026 And On A Completely Unrelated Note Why Is Everyone In The Office Sick Right Now Apart From The Guy In The Mask?

Palantir CEO Makes Shocking Confession on Disrupting Democratic Power They’re saying the quiet part out loud now.

"Palantir CEO Alex Karp says his AI technology will lessen the power of “highly educated, often female voters, who vote mostly Democrat” while increasing the power of working-class men."

Just saying it right out loud now.

The rapture is not in the Bible.

The rapture is not present in Christianity before the 19th century.

The rapture makes for dangerous theology and foreign policy.

The rapture needs to become a resoundingly opposed sentiment.

January 2021 was the deadliest month of the pandemic. 3000 Americans died daily, 95,000 in total.

And Prasad was *mocking* people for avoiding COVID.

Shame on anyone who treated him as a good faith actor or serious thinker.

Let’s be honest about his record.

A sign reads "Please wait patiently for the failure of the system" with Chinese characters above.

our patience has been rewarded

One of the consequences of this war is that some people around the world will truly believe that the Jesus Christ of ALL Christians is the one of Trump, Hegseth, Vance, Mike Johnson, and the circus of preachers around the White House.

For years on my old blog I published the names of servicemembers who died in Iraq & Afghanistan. No other outlets were.

These are the first 4 Americans to die in the Iran War.
Capt. Cody A. Khork, 35
Sgt. 1st Class Noah L. Tietjens, 42
Sgt. 1st Class Nicole M. Amor, 39
Sgt. Declan J. Coady, 20

It's gratifying to me that they've issued this warning. I look my age (mid-70s) and am fine with that, which weirdly makes me counter-cultural now. I'm heartened to read that the Vatican would approve.

In a statement, the Devil said, “Honestly I’m not sure what changed, I used to have to pay people to sell their souls to me.”

"This cult of heroism is strictly linked with the cult of death... The Ur-Fascist hero craves heroic death, advertised as the best reward for a heroic life. The Ur-Fascist hero is impatient to die. In his impatience, he more frequently sends other people to death."

- Umberto Eco, "Ur-Fascism"

"Every gun that is made, every warship launched, every rocket fired signifies, in the final sense, a theft from those who hunger and are not fed, those who are cold and are not clothed."

-Dwight D. Eisenhower, 1953

Ike warned us about the military industrial complex. I was born during the "conflict" in Korea. The boy I was dating in the early '70s drew 365 the year of the lottery draft for Vietnam. (What luck!) The complex drives the national bus.

We've known about the zealots in DC who believe they're working toward Armageddon for many years, decades even. It's clear that, in not taking that faction seriously, saner and more rational people have allowed them to come to power.

"Please press uno" took me completely out

Forward my messages to glory, for I am deceased

After ten years of maga, I'm still shocked by the heartlessness of it all, the lack of compassion.

Happy large boulder the size of a small boulder day for all who celebrate

People at the Prairieland ICE Concentration Camp, located outside Dallas, Texas, are enduring freezing temperatures as the ICE refuses to activate the facilities’ heating systems. The temperature outside is a bone-chilling 13°F (8°F with wind chill), and the situation has persisted since 1/26/6

I always liked this one.

Reminder that, as of the latest reports, Liam Ramos is still in prison in Texas - now for 5 days.

His parents are legal asylum seekers with no criminal record.

Thank you for the gift article. I don't subscribe to The Atlantic and will be very interested. (I have never been an Evangelical, but it's in the air I've breathed most of my life, if you know what I mean.)

Mafia goon: Nice house you got here...it'd be a shame if something happened to it

Media outlets: Mafia goon rules out use of force. Expresses regret at the mere thought of it

That's wonderful! This is our lucky day. :D

I hope they'd buy California too.

Hello, kitty. :)

Oh, he's cute!
