The floatato chip didnβt crumble under the weight of a Fat Bear Junior champ, and Chunk proved that round and resilient is the recipe for success.
Catch us tomorrow for another spicy vote.
that is also my daily responsibility. I am watching now!
Thank you for your live-sharing of #ELCACWA25! Appreciated it so much.
I just put it in my calendar. I love Des Moines!
So true. Itβs a little puzzling.
Yehiel Curry's installation will be on Sat. Oct. 4, 2025 in Minneapolis. #ELCACWA25
7. Research what tribal nations are local to you and begin a relationship, ask respectful questions

Grateful for leadership about this, especially Vance Blackfox and Pastor Manuel Retamoza.
WHATβS YOUR PLAN to support this movement?

Congregations that seek out connections w/ local tribal communities have shown to fulfill the promises that the whole ELCA has made & has not been great about following up on w/ action, reparations, & more to Indigenous people & communities. #ELCACWA25
How to support the #Truth&HealingMovement.

#ELCA #ELCACWA25 Churchwide Assembly Livestream here:
www.elca.org/about/leader...
Quick thoughts on the ELCA PB first ballot. 1. At least there are two POC in the Top 5. 2. All Top 5 are Synod staff. 3. If one calls the same people who are currently in charge and expect different results, that is on us.
Hoping that there is critical mass here on BlueSky to actually get some news about the ELCA Churchwide Assembly.

I miss live Tweeting, too.
*waves* across YouTube!
OK, I have an idea. We all agree to go along with the GOPβs desire to display the 10 Commandments in public buildings. In return, they all agree to resign office immediately if they disobey any of the aforementioned commandments.
GOD: time to decide which activities should burn calories
CHUBBY QUIET ANGEL: well, I was thinking we should do kindness and sharing and teaching and reading, oh and saying thank you and...

Pretty much the same amount Republicans promise to βsaveβ in this budget is what the IRS could have collected from tax cheats and wealthy/sophisticated filers WITHOUT RAISING A SINGLE TAX.

Forcing people to pay $130 for a passport in order to vote is just a Jim Crow poll tax by another name.
It is blatantly unconstitutional.
If the US government requires passports for you to practice your rights such as voting then passports should be provided for free to all and within a reasonable timeframe by said government.
If you're in congress and you aren't publicly in favor of banning the trading of individual stocks by people in congress, get your head out of your fucking ass.
Update: The Office of Government Ethics has "no comment" on its acting director, Jamieson Greer, also being Trump's U.S. Trade Rep -- meaning the guy in charge of investigating whether Trump engaged in insider trading with his tariffs is also the guy who advises Trump on tariffs.
Can't make it up!
An image of and quote from Harriet Tubman have been removed from a National Parks webpage about the βUnderground Railroad,β following several prominent changes to government websites under the Trump administration.
Please share!!! This is getting ridiculousβthey just canβt accept a loss. Please help spread the word to North Carolina. The North Carolina Court of Appeals ruled in a 2-1 decision that over 60,000 votes cast in last yearβs closely contested state Supreme Court race must be verified and recounted.
Here he is today, deeply concerned about economic hardship caused by his tariff scheme.
Since both semifinal games last night were lopsided, I hope that means Sundayβs title game is a burner.
