A man camp for the digital age.
Just a reminder that Muslims have been on this continent since the first arrival of non-Indigenous people. They were among the first generation of Americans, and have been here ever since.
It's been 65 days since Donald Trump invaded a sovereign state, abducted its leader, and declared the US will "run" the state indefinitely
It's been 9 days since Trump launched a war (his word) against Iran without congressional approval
No House member has filed articles of impeachment for either
The Americans did an excellent job of portraying Christians who arenโt crazy or stupid and making them very relevant to the storyline instead of throwaway characters. Loved it, though the show is extremely intense.
Super helpful distinction to make!
Amazing
The argument that Jesus supports individual giving but not organized giving through chosen representatives of the community is partly an argument that Jesus doesn't understand economies of scale.
Everyone is 12.

Look at us leading the way in the right direction for a change ๐ค ๐
New excuse to call in to work that I never thought would be a true thing someone could say: โI canโt come in today because a Senator broke my armโ
Yep, this is good. I made many of the same points here Mon night and yesterday morning before muting my thread in disgust over the responses.
Way too many people will believe anything that fits into their view of things these days.
Today the site is highlighting their virality.
I read tonight that one of the soldiers killed in Trump's War on Iran hasn't yet been positively identified by medical examiners.

This kind of rhetoric is corroding our nationโs very soul.
There are thorny questions of โjust warโ but this is clear: no follower of Jesus, indeed no one who believes in any kind of loving God or even simply in humanity can be a cheerleader for โdeath and destructionโ of our fellow man.
Tears of gratitude and joy this morning. ๐๐ป So excited for November!
Yes, letโs get to it!

Fortitude. Because you know you need it! By Sandro Botticelli, whose day is today, in 1470.
A standing reminder: a small handful of Republicans in Congress could stop this chaos tomorrow. They simply choose not to.
