the pope says catholic converts are too online

why would he come for online trads like this
In recent years, many young people have approached the faith through social media, successful programs and popular online Christian witnesses. The danger is that a faith discovered online is limited to individual experiences, which may be intellectually and emotionally reassuring, but never “embodied.” Such experiences remain “disembodied,” detached from the “ecclesial body.”

Washpost Opinion (not News) has done a stealth edit of its pro-ballroom editorial.

The original (left) failed to mention that Amazon (whose founder, Jeff Bezos, owns the Post) is a donor to Trump's project.

The new version (right) has it.

No clarification or correction appended to the piece.
Or consider the modest Dwight D. Eisenhower Memorial near the National Air and Space Museum. Congress authorized its creation in 1999. Architect Frank Gehry was selected in 2009. The NCPC rejected Gehry’s initial design proposal in 2014 before approving a revised plan the next year. The Commission of Fine Arts gave its approval in 2017. The memorial wasn’t opened until late 2020. By contrast, Eisenhower planned and executed D-Day in about six months. Trump joins a long list of presidents who have left their imprint on the White House. Theodore Roosevelt replaced greenhouses to construct the West Wing. William Howard Taft constructed the first Oval Office in 1909. Richard M. Nixon converted a swimming pool into the press briefing room in 1970. The modern East Wing wasn’t even built until World War II to cover up an underground bunker. Harry S. Truman gutted the White House interior and added the balcony that bears his name. Purists decried it. Now it’s a hallmark. Or consider the modest Dwight D. Eisenhower Memorial near the National Air and Space Museum. Congress authorized its creation in 1999.

Starting running Mythic Bastionland on Tuesday, and sorting out the map. This is the player facing one. I look at this and think "Yes, this is what my mum thinks an RPG looks like."
Map of the Vale. When I generated it, I thought that wiggly thing was a road, but is in fact a valley. Oh noes!

Among many other things Hector Ortiz designed the Titan class, which was the ship that originally got me into STO. This is a truly sad day.

Tough day for Cryptic STO team. We're losing two of our most senior artists, including Hector Ortiz, who codified the look of STO's unique 25th-century Starfleet aesthetic. The other is Senior FX Artist Chris Menard, who has been on the project with me for the last 15 years. We'll miss them dearly.
An image from the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode "Redemption": dozens of crew members of the USS Enterprise stand on either side of a corridor of the ship to say goodbye to Lt. Worf as he leaves Starfleet to fight in the Klingon Civil War.

The Green Party want to limit CEO wages to 10x as much as their lowest paid workers.

Currently they earn up to 11,273x,

Bet365 CEO Denise Coates was paid £277,000,000.
Most of her workers get just £24,571.

It's just commonsense to end this theft.

You never met a bigger critic than Bret Stephens of “safe spaces” and “trigger warnings” nor a bigger proponent of courageously engaging in argumentation and embracing discomfort.

Until someone advocates for Palestinian human rights. Then he shrivels up into a whimpering, tearful, quaking mess.

Bernie isn't admitting he is wrong *now*.
Tweets from John Bresnahan, @bresreports: An angry Bernie Sanders won’t drop his support for Graham Platner despite a Nazi tattoo on his chest 2/ Sanders said Platner “as a young man” went thru some really difficult experiences” in Iraq and Afghanistan. 3/ Sanders: “I personally think he is an excellent candidate and will support him, and I look forward to him becoming the next senator from Maine.” 4/ When pressed on Platner’s Nazi tattoo, Sanders lashed out at the “corrupt campaign finance system” adding “We don’t have enough candidates in this country that will take on the powers that be and fight for the working class.”
