Enjoying The Acolyte...if you don't fine...it's not for you...not all of Star Wars should be for the fanboys. The franchise can't survive on fanboys alone.

Speculation on Chinese social media that the attack on four Americans in Jilin was fueled by anti-US messaging from the state. We briefly noted today's Reuters report on anti-China messaging by the US at the end—will be looking into responses to that next week ….

We're Back!! Miss us?

Biden asking for another Billion dollar arm deal for Israel. I am NOT voting for Biden at this point. I just can't. Probably leaving that part of the ballot blank...genocide and ethnic cleansing regardless of where is a red line.

His holding a literal textbook...I colleges and universities are on borrowed time.

Best part of this is … have you ever actually seen an Oxford VSI? They’re tiny. Wtf is Daughtry holding up there?

So the bear wins...🐻 wins!

The United Methodist General Conference was a success for removing discriminatory language from our polity. But was a failure for addressing the ordination issues within the US context specific to local licensed pastors. We were so focused we forgot about everyone else.

@probsnotaliens.bsky.social when's the next episode?

So these college students are being arrested and thrown off campus. These kids are the ones who will determine police budgets and policies going forward. This will also harden their politics.

It will interesting fundraising for the campuses with the protest. The ultra wealthy will withhold for influence over behaviors and regular alumna will not contribute on principle over the matter. It's almost like this is planned.

Really worried about a larger regional war in the Middle East and increasing right wing terrorism here that could lead to civil war. We should pray for peace.

We need to fix our own planet! And there are many opportunities to build habitats in orbit, on the moon and in our Earth system. The drive for Mars is really geared for While male billionaires wanting physical separation from the rest of Earth.

I've come around to understanding such gambits as martian settlement as extraordinarily pessimistic: if the notion is that humanity needs other planets as a hedge against terrestrial oblivion, what is it that makes another planet easier than reversing climate change or dismantling all nukes? nothing

There is something very wrong with the battery packs and the roll cages of Teslas. Yet congress, addicted to his money, refuses to do anything about it. Elon should be moved far away from daily operations and his shares diluted so a new CEO could fix things. But congress is useless right now.

Fun Fact: Teslas have killed over twice as many people as the exploding Ford Pinto did at a roughly similar level of sales. the Pinto sold ~3 million units & killed at least 27 people. Tesla is now creeping up on 5 million total vehicles & 95 deaths from battery fires or autopilot crashes.

95 Tesla deaths have involved fires or Autopilot. How the EV maker fares in fatalities per million miles.www.businessinsider.com Tesla deaths from fires and Autopilot make up 24% of the fatalities in crashes. Learn about the death rates per million miles and vs other cars.

Anyone worried that congregations are still not integrated? It's 2024!

Why is affordable filling food so scarce now? It feels like the markets are conspiring to keep everyone up to their noses in debt so that work like good serfs.

We may have hit peak free market stupidity. Unless the US can reform the system, we are facing higher inflation and wealth disparities.

Most people in the province don't care as much as the rural conservatives. It's a global human phenomenon. The rural population thinks leaving the country or revolution will solve problems in their communities.

I suspect the lack of quality and engineering is at the heart of the issue.

How many ways does a candidate have to show the nation that he's not fit to have keys to a room at the Plaza let alone the White House before people believe him?

I see Trump getting special treatment because of notoriety and wealth and I get angry. It challenges my faith because I believe I am called love all people, but I really dislike this man and I fear I am giving into his hate.

The GOP border complaints is the same game plan the Brexiteers used in the UK. Protect the border, keep illegals out, and pull out of economic and trade treaties to regain control. The results? Long duration recession, closing of access to Europe and political instability.

I get it now. Oligarchs, business executives, criminals, and politicians aren't subject to the law. This explains the French Revolution, the Peasants Revolt and other responses that radically changed the economic systems of the times.

If the real world was way more interesting, people would not live on phones and computers. The real world right now...kinda sucks. And the middle age and seniors are not even trying to make it better. It's not phones that are the problem, it's the world outside it.

If we're being honest with ourselves, the pandemic exposed what a f'd a society we live in and where all the cracks are.

I am ready to blow up my YouTube and Podcast feeds...too much garbage content...even from people I really enjoy.

Until states and the federal government start ignoring rulings by the 5th, nothing will change.

The 5th circuit is so blatantly corrupt and bought at this point that even Liberals are starting to realize the legal system was always set against us. They're still not going to DO anything. www.reuters.com/legal/litiga...
