“You all could’ve picked me up on Saturday and thrown me on a plane, thinking I’m a member of Tren de Aragua and given me no chance to protest it,” the judge said.
They serve one function extremely useful to you and to the country, so useful that, if there were no Communists, we would almost be forced to create some. They are a reliable litmus paper for detecting real sources of danger to the Republic.
Communism is so repugnant to almost all Americans, when they are getting along even tolerably well, that one may predict with certainty that any social field or group in which the Communists make real strides in gaining members or acceptance of their doctrines, any such spot is in such bad shape from real and not imaginary social ills that the rest of us should take emergency, drastic action to investigate and correct the trouble.
Unfortunately we are more prone to ignore the sick spot thus disclosed and content ourselves with calling out more cops.
It's hard to find the original Daily Show clip, but they show part of it here. It's the most vile fucking double think imaginable, saying "Hey, I'm not racist, I just want to disenfranchise minority and student voters who HAPPEN to be mostly democrats, and by the way, yeah, I'm actually pretty fucking racist." I'm just glad that the Daily Show got to interview a guy who was so lacking in self-awareness that he said it all out loud.
Proverbs 14:31
Whoever oppresses the poor shows contempt for their Maker, but whoever is kind to the needy honors God.
Deuteronomy 15:7
If anyone is poor among your fellow Israelites in any of the towns of the land the Lord your God is giving you, do not be hardhearted or tightfisted toward them.
Luke 14:13-14
But when you give a banquet, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed. Although they cannot repay you, you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.
Luke 12:15:
Then he said, “Beware! Guard against every kind of greed. Life is not measured by how much you own.”
1 John 4:20
If anyone says, "I love God," yet hates his brother, he is a liar. For anyone who does not love his brother, whom he has seen, cannot love God, whom he has not seen.
1 John 3:17
But if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him?
John 13:34
“A new command I give you: Love one another. As I have loved you, so you must love one another.
My wife and I watched Morbius, and I have to admit, I got really emotionally involved in the YouTube video we watched immediately afterwards where an engineer built a chicken-slapping robot to see if you could actually cook a chicken by slapping it.
I've noticed that cancer seems to be really good at killing decent people, so my solution is that every time someone nice dies of cancer we should go out and round up five or six total shitheads, throw them into a volcano, and say they died of cancer.
I approach this from the other side. I'm (more or less) straight, but I watched Labyrinth on a loop when I was a little kid. If it was possible to be turned gay, then David Bowie would have turned me queerer than a three dollar bill.
Aw, I remember hearing about these years ago and thinking that investing in a cask of booze sounded so much cooler and more real than investing hallucinatory financial instruments or whatever.
Same thing for me from a promoted link on Facebook from some magazine reviewing the show. Big episode happens, I don't watch it that night because I'm busy but I'm planning to watch it the next night. Promoted headline: "Ten Ways [Character who was killed in that episode] Could Come Back From The Dead Next Season." Aw, fuck me!
Those hares were fast as lightning!
