I really hate asking this of people, but I'm currently struggling to make my health insurance premiums this month, and could use a little help. If you could kick a few bucks my way and/or spread it around that would be a massive help.

Every time someone makes me read something Peter Thiel said it’s like “Scrooge McDuck is Jesus Christ and Huey, Dewey, and Louie are Gabriel, Raphael, and Uriel and Daisy is Mary Magdalene and that’s why women voting has lowered American sperm count.”

Because it needs to be said:

The Salvation Army does not exist to save you

The Salvation Army exists to convert you

And if they cannot convert you, they will not lift a finger to save you

Do not support those whose “charity“ comes with conditions

It’s dinner time for the police. Appears to be pizza from a Salvation Army van.

Sometimes, your timeline writes itself 🤣

Screenshot of my timeline:

Tagg writes "Every time that someone draws a picture of an OC sitting on top of a pumpkin my first thought is: 'Where's the stem?'"

Bullstorm posts "Pumpkin night. Pumpkin Carving YCH commission for redcoat.bsky.social" with a picture of a red anthro wolf, with a witch's hat, holding a knife, and sitting on top of a very large pumpkin carved with a Jack O'Lantern face.

Rhagana Doomslayer @rhagana.bsky.social · 1d

Absolutely wild that @commandersterling.bsky.social was ranting this week about how the word"cozy" has become pervasive in video games and I see this at my local library today

Poster at the library's video section advertising "cozy horror" movies; it's a collage of original posters for the films The Fog, Practical Magic, Misery, Werewolves Within, Let the Right One In, Hocus Pocus, Sleepy Hollow (Tim Burton version), Scare Me, and An American Werewolf in London.

One of the real dangers of becoming super rich is that you'll write or say some of the dumbest shit imaginable and there's no one around who will tell you how stupid it is before you publish it

thiel, man, what the fuck are you talking about

He describes the plot of Watchmen, a 1986 graphic novel involving superheroes grappling with moral questions about humanity against the backdrop of impending nuclear war:

The antihero Ozymandias, the antichrist-type figure, is sort of an early-modern person. He believes this will be a timeless and eternal solution – eternal world peace. Moore is sort of a late-modern. In early modernity, you have ideal solutions, ‘perfect’ solutions to calculus. In late modernity, things are sort of probabilistic. And at some point, he asks Dr Manhattan whether the world government is going to last. And he says that ‘nothing lasts forever.’ So you embrace the antichrist and it still doesn’t work.

Thiel later finds biblical meaning in the manga One Piece, discussing how he believes it represents a future where an antichrist-like one-world government has repressed science. He believes that the hero, Monkey D Luffy, represents a Christlike figure.

In One Piece, you are set in a fantasy world, again sort of an alternate earth, but it’s 800 years into the reign of this one-world state. Which, as the story unfolds, gradually gets darker and darker. You sort of realize, in my interpretation, who runs the world and it’s something like the antichrist. There’s Luffy, a pirate who wears a red straw hat, sort of like Christ’s crown of thorns. And then towards the end of the story, transforms into a figure who resembles Christ in Revelation.

Thiel, along with a researcher and writer at Thiel Capital, explored these ideas at greater length in an essay for the religious journal First Things earlier this month.

Apologies for reposting once again but I gotta try and get the signal out there - I've been applying for assistance where I can but the whole thing's a mess of red tape.

Chaz Targrin @chaztargrin.bsky.social · 21d

Hi! I hate to ask for help, but my employment's ending as of the end of this month and it's likely going to be a while until I can get my benefits back in order, while also owing rent and council tax.

If you can throw anything to me over on ko-fi (ko-fi.com/chaztargrin) I'd appreciate it greatly!

I read about this in high school. This young lady kept a diary and talked about how her family hid from legal authorities above a shop for fear of being sent to a camp and killed.

The parallels are here. Written in tears and the empty spaces that were once lives.

Aaron Reichlin-Melnick @reichlinmelnick.bsky.social · 1d

My first thought was “wow I hope this guy didn’t give out his name because he could absolutely be charged” and yup, he is correct to stay anonymous.

This man’s account is shocking. His neighbors’ situation is shocking. The entire Chicago raid is shocking.

On the other side was a mom and her 7-year-old daughter, pleading for his help.
"I wasn't planning on letting her stay, but I didn't know what the hell was going on," the man said of his Venezuelan migrant neighbors. But he quickly relented. The little girl was inconsolable and hid under his bed.
"I didn't want them to take her," said the man, who didn't want to be named because he fears he'll be targeted by federal authorities for his actions.
"I gave her my bedroom, and I just told her,
'Just stay there. Don't open, don't, shh, just stay quiet," he recalled telling the mom and daughter as he choked back tears.

My latest short novel, The Most Dangerous Flower, is out this week! It's an erotic comedy about a widower struggling to maintain his partner's orchid collection and the sexy younger gardener who helps him, um, bloom. It's a fun, naughty romp and I hope you'll buy a copy.
