“Do not suppose that I have come to bring peace to the earth. I did not come to bring peace, but a sword. For I have come to turn

“ ‘a man against his father, a daughter against her mother, a daughter-in-law against her mother-in-law— a man’s enemies will be the members of his own household.’

“Anyone who loves their father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves their son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me. Whoever does not take up their cross and follow me is not worthy of me. Whoever finds their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life for my sake will find it."

Matthew 10:35-39

Not a lot of love and unity from this fella if you don't like him the most. As you say, it's valuable agitprop but damn if it doesn't drive a bit of me nuts

Looks like the only charge that stuck is the one which required Cassie to admit during her addiction she 'consented' to being trafficked. Insane

funny reply guy on twitter

All the hosts of lefty podcasts have given themselves twitter brain damage and being funny to them on there is all you need to be to get in their good graces

~10% of it survives digestion and is still viable in urine so it's a surprisingly stable molecule, I guess.

Even if the goal isn't to get somebody to overdose or become addicted I'm sure we'll hear new propaganda about how everyone in Gaza is an addict so it's okay to kill them all. Once they can sell Gaza as an illegal homeless encampment the libs will be tripping over themselves to nuke it

We invented a tiny TV that we carry around to spy on us instead

I remember reading a theory that these swirling symbols are unavoidable in human art because when we observe the stars and follow their movement these are the shapes they make due to the wiggle of the earth's axis. It was in a book from the 1890's so IDK if it was just made up but I like the idea

I hope it's as dumb as exif data on the pictures and they still never figure it out

Most early Christians were converts from Judaism so they were doing circumcision as tradition but the Greeks in particular did not like it and that's where Paul's 'don't worry about it' letter comes in. After Christianity solidified into its own religion there was a move to break from the religion's Jewish roots and carrying on practices from the Old Testament were seen as too Jewish- circumcision was the easiest one to check for when you were got paranoid that there were Crypto-Jews hidden among your population.

This is just what Israeli defines as a ceasefire- they get to keep shooting and you aren't allowed to shoot back
