@benwellinger@JustinPetersMin "Find a bible believing church" is a pointless, empty sentence, constantly uttered by lots of preachers. Every church claims to be "bible believing"...from the most godly to the most blasphemous. New, immature, or led astray believers have no way of knowing the difference.
@RPGpickett@japan_nobunaga This account's posts are generally witty, well-written and delightful. Apparently they are done by one (or more) in Japanese, with AI help to create, compose, and translate them. Still good and entertaining though. Nothing wrong with that. Just view it as fun fictional character.
@janemas@ILikeMyLiberty@MissyIsMaga@elonmusk If you own a rental property, it has Property Taxes and other costs like repairs, a mortgage, etc. When you rent it to someone, you total up costs, add some profit ÷ 12 = rent you charge. Therefore, renters do, in fact, pay your property taxes. Otherwise it's charity not rental.
@LibertyVoop@esjesjesj Wow! After watching that video, I wonder how any man does that job for more than a week without losing a hand or dying. I've done a lot of construction and fairly heavy labor jobs over the years, but that one looks insane. I'm sure I'd get myself or someone else killed doing it.
@RRholiman@elonmusk If that chart's right, China's pop. is over 4x more than the U.S. but generating 2.5x more power. So their power consumption per person is still way below U.S.
@Chadronius@caedon07@KingSwaeLi@GarbageHuman24 Speaking as someone who has adopted three children, it seems likely you don't know much about it. For every available, adoptable infant in American, there are about 41 couples waiting to adopt. Also, only about 27% of children in the foster system are eligible for adoption.
@MasoniChisenga@Raldi616@Andercot 17,500 mph is orbital velocity, or how fast something has to go to orbit the earth. So, they're already going that fast when they return. They'd have to use rockets and fuel to go slower. Blue Origin never intended on going that high, so they didn't get anywhere near that speed.
@thecavedaddy For those purportedly concerned about the "poor" paying income taxes, a solution could be for the flat tax to have a standard deduction. So, you only pay the flat tax on everything over the 1st $10K, $50K, or whatever. Then, the truly poor still don't have a heavy tax burden.
@baktalk4u @elonmusk It is radically cheaper and easier to send supplies there, if necessary, on an unmanned rocket, compared to sending a vehicle equipped to carry passengers back to earth.
@stingerdelux@JimmyBoyBack@realjoeymUS Why, exactly, does the U.S. have "the responsibility to act" in this case? We are not the world's fire department. Also, what specifically do you expect us to do? Keep sending unlimited funds? Send our military, which would be declaring war on Russia? What specifically?
@jeff_salter0@DougAMacgregor Source? Ppft. Didn't you see...it said "BREAKING" right there. He even put it in all caps. What more do you expect? Didn't you see the ALL CAPS?? It MUST be true.
@ylem516@MamaM97273295 @TaraBull808 Yeah, my guess is that because of the natural differences in male/female temperaments, the genius women just don't pursue the things people associate with "geniuses," like physicists, inventors, high-profile CEOs, etc.
@jkcoolguy@DrPareto2025@elonmusk But didn't you see? He said, "chaos theory demands it." It DEMANDS it. I mean, didn't you see Jurassic Park?? Case closed.
@00Scone @HwsEleutheroi @NoJesuitTricks I think that's probably the whole point. He's attributing that attitude to White, which seems pretty clearly to be uncharitable and dishonest, regardless of where one stands on this particular theological issue. 🤷♂️
@sam_kb_@HwsEleutheroi This use for ChatGPT can be risky because it (and other AI) is infamous for hallucinating quotes. It will just outright invent quotes and sources. Any quote should be confirmed. I checked about 8 quotes once, and ALL were fake in some way; the quote, author, or ref were fake.
@justplainjane4@JamesMelville@jk_rowling I think it is likely because the overwhelming majority of news media, education, and the entertainment industry are firmly on the left...with many being far left. Therefore, they control the narrative.
@AmyshriDB@1Nicdar@MeghanMcCain Which begs the question, why isn't he back in Minnesota governing? He has been campaigning nonstop for three months. Is a state governor really that unnecessary?
@Thatdude16_@Rob_ThaBuilder@jk_rowling Axians? Actually, though, you forgot that Asians don't qualify for their own extra special word because they are "white adjacent." 🙄
