‘Father’ and ‘dad’ are synonyms.

‘Figure’ and ‘bod’ are synonyms.

But, a ‘father figure’ and a ‘dad bod’ aren’t exactly the same thing…

@LindsayOnAir @realDonaldTrump @BasedMikeLee Republicans have had a supermajority in Utah for many years, and Trump thinks Democrats are cheating in our elections? Oh, brother.

@Sharon_Educator @tvheidihatch As someone with a background studying infectious diseases, I remember clearly that the mRNA vaccines did prevent most spread of COVID for months after they were introduced. But when new mutations led to the Delta & Omicron variants, vaccination no longer prevented spread so well.

[Brita Engh @BritaEngh]

@tvheidihatch Vaccine disinformation is why we have had thousands of measles cases in our state over the last year. A lot of the disinformation is being spread by "wellness" people who seek to profit off of kids getting sick.

@JonahDispatch I think the best description of who counts as a Christian came from Jesus Himself:

"By this everyone will know that you are my disciples, if you love one another." (John 13:35)

[Brita Engh @BritaEngh]

These thousands of measles cases have been fueled by the vaccine disinformation campaign from people in the "wellness" industry. These are people in our communities who want your children to get the measles so they can sell you their products.

Utah doctors are part of a reluctant cohort now on the front line of America’s regressive next chapter in health history.

The amount of solar power generated in the U.S. is continuing to grow despite efforts from the Trump administration to slow down the renewable energy sector, according to two reports. https://t.co/z2jh6BGexS

Can’t stop thinking about how Wall Street is celebrating Elon Musk becoming the world’s first trillionaire, while he single handedly eliminated humanitarian aid that will lead to the needless deaths of 4.5 million of the poorest children in the world in the next 4 years.

@SteveCLitch @BradWilcoxIFS @aibm_org Goodness, you have a lot of free time to write an essay about mowing the lawn

[Brita Engh @BritaEngh]

@SteveCLitch @BradWilcoxIFS @aibm_org Are those outdoor chores done every day, like cooking, dishes, laundry, and cleaning? Or even multiple times a week?

Or are they just once in a while? If you compare hours of outdoor chores to indoor chores, there's no contest.
