This is a fantastic point that I used to make when I worked in software, to not much avail.

Want a social media example? Why not reverse the word “following” and its value? “Following 200” sounds so much more natural than “200 Following”.

Someone gave me these at my job, in a public high school. My kids were completely revolted by them.

2024 digit sum = 8
8 = digit sum 10100011110110₂
10100011110110₂ = lee₂₂

If this isn’t evidence that 2024 is my year, I don’t know what is. It’s RIGHT THERE.

Matthew 6:5 comes to mind. Maybe Luke 18:9-14 if you like stories.

Happy Labor Day, everyone! Take the time to thank a union member, organizer, or a union itself for enabling the things that make modern life possible.

Trump has gone crazy on TruthSocial. He’s posted a new screed every five to ten minutes, rehashes of old material, so quickly that his devotees can’t even reply to them. I can’t even fit them all in one photo.
