You are not convincing my queer trans ass there is anything worth studying in there to guide people morally. I had that inflicted on me for the first two decades of my life and literally have PTSD from it.
The history can be interesting, and it’s something people accomplished in spite of what is in that book, not because of it.
Where do you think the ideas that all humans are equal and deserve equal rights that reduced slavery in modern times come from?
Definitely not the Bible, which tells women to be subservient to their husbands and enslaved people to obey their masters. I am utterly uninterested in the moral lessons of a book written by people who endorse debt slavery. Which, I guess still needs to be pointed out, is bad! Even if it’s “only” 7 years!
I think the largest US plane crash in the past 20+ years having happened within the past 3 months might have something to do with the increased reporting, not politics.
Nobody ever likes this answer, but it’s the truth.
The Trump administration’s federal hiring freeze is squeezing the team of meteorologists

Used to be you had to worry about the FCC crawling up your ass if you jammed signals.
Regardless of the car you’re in, what would you do if you found yourself surrounded by people who want to hurt the vehicle you’re driving?
Love the exonerative tense here. He just ‘found himself’ surrounded by protestors out of the blue, not that his vehicle aimed directly at and drove through the crowd.
I wonder how they’re going to handle the Jay Treaty with Canada? I assume fucking terribly.
If your passport has the gender designation X, or if you have changed your gender, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs advises contacting the American embassy before traveling for guidance on how to proceed.
Meanwhile in Finland, the advisory notes that if the gender on an applicant’s passport differs from the gender confirmed at birth, U.S. authorities may deny entry. It’s recommended to check the entry requirements with U.S. authorities in advance.
I came so close to not putting a rush order on my renewal after the election, but I’m really glad I did. I feel for the people who have to wait and hope shit will get better in 4 years.
Yeah, if they think these town halls with people screaming at them are bad, they are not going to like what happens if they actually activate all the deranged ‘keep your government hands off my Medicare’ conservatives against them.
Microplastics probably cause brain damage and COVID definitely does.
Poor thing’s fried brain probably thought the trees were other moose or something
He was stretching the truth as much as possible to convince local art dealers to sell his stuff as an investment, got sued for it, and (spoiler if you’re wanting to listen to the episodes) may or may not have intentionally killed himself to avoid going to trial over it.
Thomas Kinkade did this with art prints in the 90s and 00s. Mass print them and then have ‘trained artists’ go in and add a little highlighting, and charge a premium for it.
Behind the Bastards has a good 2 part episode on him.
Yeah, it really fucking sucks she didn’t distance herself more from a government committing literal genocide during the election.
Oh, well… at least they haven’t also had historic flooding recently! 😬
Freest country on earth, with government mandated positions in academia.
I believe you, I just think the average person doesn’t realize how damaging the Bible can be, especially taken literally. The use for it as a moral guide has long since been overtaken by philosophies like humanism, the same way that precise brain surgeries have eclipsed the trepanation practiced in the Neolithic.
