@mhp_guy Mythical numbers. A typical 2 car garage is around 400-450 square feet. Cut the profit numbers in half. Given this, it’s likely that the cost numbers need adjustment as well.

So @pearlythingz continued her fascinating survey of churches, asking the question, “Should Christian women obey their husbands?” This week she visited an Orthodox church.

Pearl reported that the Orthodox congregants were the best so far, but I found it interesting that the men that were giving good answers seemed to be terrified of how they’d be perceived!

But more on that later. For now, check out Pearl’s encounter with the walking talking personification of the Longhouse. It’s fantastic. 😂

When American POWs tried to sneak her notes with their personal information to tell their families they were still alive, she gave them to the North Vietnamese. Some of them were beaten to death. You are both commies and you can both fuck off.

DEFUND BABY KILLING

[Liana Graham @llianagordan]

Feminist messaging continues to shrug off men as unnecessary, often in a mean way meant to belittle men.

But messaging like this is as foolish as it is cruel. Only in the privileged bubble of our Western culture may we joke about men not being needed.

Our culture has inherited a miracle of human history: equating strength with meekness and leadership with service. Or, in other words, chivalry.

Chivalry isn’t frivolous. Teaching it is essential to the health of our society.

TEXAS SENATE RACE: Ken Paxton won 252 counties out of 254 with Cornyn only winning Travis County (Austin) and tiny Kenedy County (winning just 6 out of 8 votes). Cornyn and the Senate Republicans spent more money on this campaign than any other Senate campaign in history and lost by double digits. Imagine what the GOP could have done with that money in the 12 House toss-up seats. Embarrassing hubris on display in Texas - shame on you Cornyn, shame on you Thune.

[Jason Howerton @jason_howerton]

Since I’m going to be hearing this for the next 6 months as a Texas voter, let me answer the question:

“You would vote for an adulterer over James Talarico? That’s not very Christian.”

Here’s the truth: I would rather vote for almost anyone else who is going to at least advocate for conservative *policies* over a literal heretic who wears my faith like a skin suit, advocates for policies that harm children, endorses immorality and generally harm society.

Ken Paxton has personal baggage. I don’t deny that. But Talarico has plenty too — and he openly mocks God’s law and treats Jesus as a political mascot all while pushing a radical far-left agenda that would be a disaster for my state.

You see, I’m an adult. I do not expect those who are seeking political office to be my moral superiors or even trustworthy. They are tools to be used to do the least amount of damage via policy.

I wish more pastors and men who live godly lives were running. I really do. But the options we get are what they are.

Paxton supports secure borders, law enforcement, lower taxes, unleashing American energy, the Second Amendment, just to name a few.

Talarico supports unlimited abortion, trans-ing children, higher taxes, government-run “healthcare,” and is incredibly comfortable blaspheming the word of God.

I’m not voting for a priest. I’m voting for an imperfect person to represent my interests. That’s how it works.

You’re not going to guilt trip Texans into supporting a looney tunes candidate like Talarico. Paxton will win by 5+.

It’s about policy, not personality.

ChatGPT diagnosed 40 million people with a disease that was invented as a joke.

Not a real disease. Not a misunderstood disease. A completely fictional condition with a fake name, fake papers, and fake statistics.

And it told patients to see a specialist.

The disease is called Bixonimania. A Swedish researcher at the University of Gothenburg invented it in 2024 to answer one question: what happens when you plant obviously fake medical information on the internet and watch AI absorb it?

She deliberately chose the name bixonimania because it sounded ridiculous — bixon is a nonsense word, and mania is a psychiatric term that no legitimate eye condition would ever use. She uploaded two papers to a preprint server. Both were obviously fraudulent. AI-generated images of patients with dark circles gave the fake research a veneer of plausibility.

Then she waited.

She did not have to wait long.

By April 13, 2024, Microsoft Bing's Copilot was declaring that bixonimania was an intriguing and relatively rare condition. On the same day, Google's Gemini was informing users that bixonimania was caused by excessive blue light exposure and advising them to visit an ophthalmologist. Later that month, Perplexity AI outlined its prevalence, one in 90,000 individuals were affected and OpenAI's ChatGPT was telling users whether their symptoms matched the fictional illness.

One in 90,000. A precise statistic. For a disease that does not exist.

Every red flag was visible. The name was absurd. The papers were crude. The condition made no scientific sense. None of the AI systems flagged any of it.

They read the fake papers. They absorbed the fake statistics. They presented both to patients with clinical authority and zero hesitation.

Then it got worse.

Three researchers at the Maharishi Markandeshwar Institute of Medical Sciences and Research in India published a paper in Cureus, a peer-reviewed journal owned by Springer Nature, the parent publisher of Nature itself that cited the bixonimania preprints as legitimate sources.

A real peer-reviewed paper. In a Springer Nature journal. Citing a fictional disease as established medical fact. Passing editorial review. Entering the permanent scientific record.

It was only retracted after the hoax became public.

Nature published a full investigation of the experiment. Alex Ruani, a health-misinformation researcher at University College London, called it a masterclass in how misinformation operates.

Here is the scale of what this means.

More than 40 million people turn to ChatGPT every day for health information, according to OpenAI's own analysis. ECRI, a US patient-safety nonprofit has named chatbot misuse the number-one health technology hazard of 2026. ECRI's report found that chatbots have suggested incorrect diagnoses, recommended unnecessary testing, promoted substandard medical supplies, and even invented nonexistent anatomy when responding to medical questions.

Number one. Out of every health technology hazard that exists in 2026.

An April 2026 study published in BMJ Open found that nearly half of the answers provided by leading AI chatbots to common health questions contain misleading or problematic information.

Nearly half. Of all health answers. From the tools 40 million people use every day.

Here is the line from the researcher that cuts through everything.

The Bixonimania case is striking precisely because it was engineered to be so obviously fake. The real question it raises is: what is passing through the same systems that is not nearly so easy to spot?

The experiment used a ridiculous name. Fraudulent papers. Visible red flags at every level.

It was designed to be caught.

It was not caught.

The AI that told patients about Bixonimania is the same AI they asked about their chest pain, their medication, their child's symptoms, and their cancer screening schedule.

40 million people. Every day.

And nobody is telling them that nearly half of what comes back may be wrong.

Time for real change. Who will step up?

[Wall Street Apes @WallStreetApes]

WOW 🚨 Rep Tim Burchett says Republicans won’t pass an Amendment if even one Democrat disagrees

READ THAT AGAIN

It’s a Uniparty, we are being sold out again

“It’s just unbelievable”

“Just left the committee, had some amendments that were cutting regulation, things that we should as Republicans do. Because of backroom deals, they cut. They won't allow any amendments on the bill because one Democrat didn't agree to it — we allow the Democrats to tell us what to do. It's just unbelievable.”

“So here we are in the majority and we're not allowed to do that….And I'll guarantee you, when the Democrats are in the majority, which they very much will”

This is the same old story

Republicans aren’t weak, spineless or incompetent. They are in on it. There’s a big difference, it’s corruption

Democrats are going to take back majority and we will never have another chance like this again….

These people don’t work for us

[Shahriq Khan @RealShahriqKhan]

When I was Muslim, man, this verse used to mess me up.

Jesus on the cross saying, “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”

As a Muslim, I used to think: how does God feel forsaken by God? That sounds like weakness. That sounds like a prophet in pain.

But then I dug deeper.

And I realized Jesus was not speaking randomly. He was quoting Psalm 22.

That entire Psalm, written by King David centuries before Christ, is a prophecy about the crucifixion:

“They pierce my hands and feet.”
“They divide my garments among them.”
“All who see me mock me.”

In Jewish culture, quoting the first line of a Psalm pointed people to the entire passage.

So Jesus was not crying out in confusion.

He was declaring fulfillment.

He was saying: “This is that.”

And at the same time, He was carrying the full weight of sin, shame, abandonment, and suffering for humanity.

Every moment humanity has cried out, “God, where are you?” Christ stepped into that pain Himself.

That is not weakness.

That is intentional.

That is prophecy unfolding in real time.

That is the King bleeding on purpose so humanity could be brought near to God.

That is the Gospel.

The land under these panels will never be farmed again.

Potato growing associations nationwide will not buy potatoes grown on ex-solar sites.

Why?

The panels leach heavy metals, as well as drop glass shards and microplastics onto the soil below them.

In a mass commercial arrangement, vegetation below the panels is soaked in herbicides.

The fertile farmland is gone forever.

[Rep. Nancy Mace @RepNancyMace]

Ilhan Omar. Shri Thanedar. Pramila Jayapal. All born in foreign countries, none were citizens by birth. All sitting in the United States Congress. All making clear every single day their loyalty is not to America.

We just introduced a long overdue joint resolution proposing a constitutional amendment to require Members of Congress, federal judges, and Senate-confirmed officers to be natural born citizens. This is the very same standard the President and Vice President are already required to meet.

The people writing America's laws, confirming America's judges, and representing America on the world stage should have one loyalty: America. Not any other country.

For too long we have allowed foreign born members to hold seats in this government while making clear they are America last, not America first. We see it every day. This constitutional amendment will put an end to it.

I was AG Paxton’s lawyer during the failed attempt to impeach him. I studied every piece of evidence. I cross examined the key witnesses. It quickly became apparent to me that the entire effort was sloppily thrown together by those he opposed—the old guard, the establishment. Their hope was that with unsupported, salacious allegations, along with a compliant and willing media, Paxton would quit. He would not quit. He will not quit. He will never quit. The totality of the impeachment evidence was nothing more than junk. And it didn’t take much effort to expose it. In the process I came to know Ken Paxton. He is thoughtful, strategic, and brilliant. He will be a damn fine senator for our state. Most of the attacks you see now are being made by the same people he soundly defeated in the impeachment. They lost then, and they will lose again. Go vote.
