Why are the MAGA Christen so upset at Bishop Budde pleading to Trump to have mercy on the poor, migrant, and other? After all, MAGA Christen have been calling Trump this era’s David for 9 years. So why are they angry now when a Nathan shows up?

Mainichi with the exclusive that Digital Minister Kono had his first dinner meeting with VP Aso, his faction boss, since May 21 and reportedly informed him of his desire to run for the LDP presidency in September. First “official” candidacy.

The anxiety around AI and the backlash to AI-generated products have grown pronounced enough that corporate brands like Dove and Discover are declaring their human-first bonafides and creators and startups are making "No AI" pledges.

A '100% LLM-free' consumer movement has begun

Thread: I just saw a meme about Japanese War Minister Anami responding to the 1945 atomic bombings by saying: "would it not be wondrous for this whole nation to be destroyed like a beautiful flower?" It struck me as an rather odd translation...(/1)

Going “hey just so everyone knows the drones just crossed the Iraqi border, and the missile attack will go soon” is just about the most obvious way to get the vast majority of your stuff shot down (which, to be clear, I think is the point)

The big education crisis caused by AI is not going to be in schools (there was cheating before AI & we can figure out AI uses that boost learning), but after graduation.

@ASPertierra Could you give me the name of the book or chapter in a book this image is from?

[Drew MacEachern @DrewMacEachern1]

@Hunter19387719 @twitandrewking @slsandpet This could be from 500AD in Cornwall or 1950 in Massachusetts for all I know. Do you have a source which discusses this picture and its meaning? Presumably you found it somewhere in your studies?

[Drew MacEachern @DrewMacEachern1]

@Hunter19387719 @twitandrewking @slsandpet Can you give me a source that discusses this?

[Drew MacEachern @DrewMacEachern1]

@twitandrewking Scholars cite Bede because that is literally the only evidence that exists - she is not referenced anywhere else. And no evidence of rabbits or eggs, so of course there's a question!
Show me ancient folklore dated to the pre-Christian era. Or do your "perceptions" suffice?

[Drew MacEachern @DrewMacEachern1]

@MagooPotato Easter in Latin is Pascha coming from Passover because it is a uniquely Christian festival. Eostre has extremely limited evidence and only the English name has "pagan origins" - we have no info about the content of Eostre celebrations.

@markj2691 @GBNEWS There is a question of if Eostre even existed, her only reference is from a 725 quotation by the Christian monk Bede which gives no info about her celebrations.

We can dunk on aggressive culture war Christianity without relying on non-facts.

[Drew MacEachern @DrewMacEachern1]

@ErinMSCFC1983 Scholars are divided on if Eostre even existed since our only source is a single mention by the Christian monk Bede in 725. Most other languages like French (Pâques) are derived from the Latin term for Passover.

@twitandrewking time-honoured name of the old observance.

[Drew MacEachern @DrewMacEachern1]

@twitandrewking Eosturmonath has a name which is now translated "Paschal month", and which was once called after a goddess of theirs named Eostre, in whose honour feasts were celebrated in that month.  Now they designate that Paschal season by her name, calling the joys of the new rite by
