The older I get, the more socialist I get.

If your feed is mostly selling stuff, religious, or about kids, I probably won’t follow back. DMs are a waste of time. I don’t check.

KARL: The president claims that Thanksgiving costs are down 25%. Does he know that's not true?

HASSETT: Well if you look at Walmart--

KARL: Wait a minute. I've gotta stop you. The Walmart package this year contains much less than the one last year. That's why the price is less.

i just read something about grief from C.S. Lewis and his book, “A Grief Observed”

basically, when someone you love dies, it isn’t just them that you miss, but the parts of yourself that person brought out of you that can never be brought out again.

i feel that with my dad.

Do I trust this recent transformation? Not yet

Will I offer grace to those who want to be done with toxic politics? Even those who once reveled in it? Yes

The road to redemption, however, is long and it must be travelled.

For MTG, the road requires her to be truthful about J6 and her role in it.

You can think it’s good that Massie and MTG are stirring up shit within the GOP caucus without thinking their politics in general is good. It’s not hard at all in fact?

A reminder that when Christian Nationalists in the Republican Party lecture you about the importance of "religious freedom," they are not talking about YOUR religion or YOUR freedom. They are talking about THEIR freedom to impose THEIR religion on you.

I do hope that yesterday puts a lot of people minds at east that we are not making a difference. Yesterday CLEARLY proved otherwise,. We are in this. We are making inroads. His admin is not sustainable and as of yesterday he clearly knows how hated he is. ALL GREAT STUFF

Speaker after speaker at this memorial is explicitly likening him to Jesus Christ. (Slain in early 30s, etc.)

Don't know how this goes over with people raised in other faiths.

Having been raised as a church-going Protestant Christian, I say: What the hell! This is not how Christians talk.
