Sauerkraut is pretty good in my opinion! I need to incorporate it more.

christians looking for jesus in every war we start, every missile we fire, every conquering despot we crown, and never in the one place jesus promised he could be found: among the poor, the starving, the oppressed.

Very good that Cupich is saying these things (particularly as someone close to Leo):

Important piece of history to the modern redistricting wars: Democrats spent a decade trying to ban partisan gerrymandering and were told each time to pound sand. This language in a 2021-2022 bill had the support of 50 out of 50 Senate Democrats — and 0 Republicans. Rs killed it.

Best of luck with your writing! You got this!

Carlo Rovelli’s “The Order of Time” is such a good book. Brief and powerfully insightful. Recommend it for everyone.

In which I reply to someone with a blacked out name that they are missing the joke and they inform me that in-jokes are virtue signals “used often by the far right.” Kinda want to frame it.

There's lots of good philosophy that looks like the diagram on the right, but many philosophers really do spend a lot of time on their own little island...

Our view is that conscious representation is the ultimate representational reality (this is our difference from Dennett) and as such, is not the result of modelling. How we describe our conscious episodes, however, is a model

U.S. Bishops Take On Trump At the Supreme Court: “Protect God-Given Human Dignity” The U.S. bishops have filed an amicus brief with the Supreme Court calling Trump’s birthright citizenship order “immoral” and unconstitutional — a consequential legal action without recent parallel.

In a historic legal intervention, America’s Catholic bishops have asked the Supreme Court to strike down Trump’s executive order ending birthright citizenship — calling it an attack on “God-given human dignity.”

The brief caps a year of escalating conflict between Pope Leo and the White House.

"We must reject political violence of any kind," says Trump, who pardoned hundreds of violent rioters who participated in the Jan. 6 insurrection that he inspired.

Catholic Bishops Warn Trump: Mass Deportations “Detrimental to Human Rights” Hours before President Trump’s State of the Union, 18 Catholic bishops — many from border states — issued a rare public plea urging him to reverse course on immigration.

NEW: Echoing Pope Leo XIV, U.S. Catholic bishops confront Trump ahead of his State of the Union — urging an end to family separations and mass raids.

So much that could be said on the 4th anniversary of the full scale invasion, but it all just boils down to the ultimate admiration for Ukrainians who have endured so much, fought so hard and deserve victory, peace and prosperity. Slava Ukraini!
