Is he saying that violent criminals are ALSO working in low-wage jobs that now Americans can fill? That's kind of...nuts.
The other of the rich men said to him "Master, what good thing shall I do and live?" He said to him "Man, perform the law and the prophets." He answered him "I have performed them." He said to him "Go, sell all that thou hast and divide it to the poor, and come, follow me."

I'm seeing a little extra pushback against Ash Wednesday this year from certain evangelical corners. "Ashes are pagan!" "Ash Wednesday violates the Regulative Principle!" etc.
God help me, my inner reaction was: "It makes sense. American evangelicalism is allergic to humility and repentance."
1. BTW: If you're curious to know more about Doug Wilson, I have two stories for you.
The first is from back in 2023, when I went to Idaho to investigate Christian nationalism in the region and, among other things, met w/Wilson for a long interview about his views. religionnews.com/2023/02/22/h...
defeating every "superhero should kill" argument with
"recurring villains are cool and also we'll end up with even more resurrection story lines"
POV: You said "there was a time when the Son was not" at the council of nicaea (and it's the kid who punched the pro-ICE protester)
I'm in favor.
I remember people telling me that if we stopped drawing attention to Doug Wilson he would just... go away. That refuting him was "platforming" him and helping him gather an audience.
I feel like those people might owe me an apology.
Doug Wilson was the preacher today at the latest monthly Christian worship at the Pentagon. My report:

Itβs a little over my head, TBH, something about a particular book being used on a particular non-mandatory panel. All I know is Matt Kennedy is ready to make rejecting the book a necessary sign of Christian faithfulness, and it escalated quickly.

Today, some folks in ACNA are singing the same old song I've heard in so many other denominations.
I'm kind of annoyed he and Crockett are running against each other in the primary, because I want them both to get in.
lol
How is it possible that Kristi Noem still has this job. Imagine if youβre a family member or a shipmate of this guardsman.

"Gamers aren't getting their consoles because AI companies are hogging basically all the RAM on the entire dang planet" is an extremely niche 2026 story, but here we are.

A central figure in our government. Shameful shit.
They really are scared of Talarico, arenβt theyβ¦
Paramount's censorship of this Colbert interview w/ Rep. James Talarico will get more people to watch than if it had aired on TV.
100K views on YouTube in just 2 hours. And counting...

β[James Talarico] was supposed to be here, but we were told in no uncertain terms by our networkβs lawyers, who called us directly, that we could not have him on the broadcast,β Colbert said.
Tonightβs dumb napkin cartoonβ¦
Incredible. We got to "Is a pedophile island really all that bad?" five times faster than I thought.
I think itβs awesome how cabinet secretaries take orders from anon randos on the internet
Of course, that's for one colony. The big commercial operations will have thousands of colonies.
You don't need a lot of land to establish a colony so long as there's land in the surrounding area. My apiary is about 15 feet by 25 feet? But there are lots of gardens and flowering trees within a 4 mile radius.

Me, to the MAGAs still sticking with Trump:
There is no constitutional right of law enforcement to detain me, throw me to the ground, and then put five bullets in my back while masked and unidentified.
There is a right to vote.
(I know. I probably should have said "for the next month.")
