ICXC NIKA. Gigantomachy. If God is dead, all is permitted.

@kentcdodds They can’t. You can watch any HBO show for free on Russian servers right now, just like I downloaded songs from Napster 20 years ago.

@ethanmoses92 @h2opologirl @Police_Clips Indeed a better option for those who can afford it.

[Voluntarist @Voluntarist_]

@Scottrb825 @h2opologirl @Police_Clips Of course. That doesn’t change the fact that traffic laws in the us are completely retarded. There’s no reason a 10 ton semi should have the same speed limit as a 1300cc Ducati. They’re completely different vehicles with braking differences orders of magnitude apart.

@Andrew1XP @h2opologirl @Police_Clips God loves you.

@Scottrb825 @h2opologirl @Police_Clips They should be punished accordingly.

[Voluntarist @Voluntarist_]

@Average_Bro__ @h2opologirl @Police_Clips They should go to prison… that’s very unlikely on a bike but certainly should be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.

@h2opologirl @Police_Clips Riders have a different risk tolerance than you. They’re well aware of the risks.

USA. A Mexican restaurant. We had not yet ordered anything, and the food was already arriving.

Chips. Salsa. Unrequested. Free.

I stopped the waiter. "We have not earned these."

"They just come with the table, man."

They come with the TABLE. In my land, hospitality is a debt. Every gift creates an obligation, weighed carefully, returned in the proper season with interest of feeling. Here, the gift arrives before you have even proven you can pay for dinner.

This is not an appetizer. This is a declaration: we trust you. Eat.

I ate with the gravity the moment deserved. And then — I must report this calmly — the basket emptied, and a new one appeared.

"Did we…?"

"Refill," the waiter said. "It's bottomless."

Bottomless. They have wells of salsa. The supply lines of this nation are beyond anything my ancestors imagined.

My friend warned me. "Don't fill up on chips, dude."

Too late. I had accepted three baskets. Honor demanded each one be finished — an unfinished gift is an insult. By the time my actual food arrived, I was a ruined man.

I was not hungry. I was not comfortable. I had been defeated by a courtesy.

Generosity that arrives before the request cannot be repaid. It can only be survived.

I know the rule now. I have made my peace with the basket. One basket. Two at the most.

Who am I deceiving. There is no number of baskets I would refuse. The trust of a nation is in that salsa, and I intend to honor all of it.

A tragedy that no one should exploit for political reasons about an isolated incident involving a mostly peaceful man with mental health issues who didn’t understand the law and whose ethnicity or motives are irrelevant.

@TonyGoldoni2003 @truthparrot_ @elonmusk The church isn’t plan B. Jesus is the true seed of Abraham, so the promises are for those in him. Modern ethnic Israel has no special land title anymore. Read Romans 9-11 and Hebrews 8.

[Voluntarist @Voluntarist_]

@TonyGoldoni2003 @truthparrot_ @elonmusk The land promise was already done under Joshua—every word God gave them came true (Josh 21:43-45). Unbelieving Israel was broken off the olive tree; believing Gentiles got grafted in and joined the Israel of God (Rom 11, Gal 6:16).

[Voluntarist @Voluntarist_]

@TonyGoldoni2003 @truthparrot_ @elonmusk Im not a conservative. Your ilk conserve nothing.

I am a Christian and I am clearly far more right wing than you.

[Voluntarist @Voluntarist_]

@TonyGoldoni2003 @truthparrot_ @elonmusk Real conservatives want to subvert Christendom? Interesting perspective.

@maksimologija In the context of the clip he’s showing restraint. He’s not even talking to the subject. You’re interpreting it in the least charitable way.

[Voluntarist @Voluntarist_]

@maksimologija I will destroy you is the threat. He’s literally saying it in the context of “I practice not attacking fellow Orthodox Christians”

@CrucifiedJudas @downbadcomment Have you considered some may want wives and mothers of their children, not threesomes.

@TGrogan268173 @NathanielRClark @PageauJonathan Orthodox think Protestants are heretics and Protestants think Orthodox are heretics. True for centuries.
