Free will exists, your choices matter.

He seals your heart is such an interesting phrase. Why would He want us to be evil all our lives?

We exist in His creation, are His creation, and therefore are bound by His laws.

When you push a stone it moves. Why? Because He wills it

@Vero_Dei There wasn’t much of a choice left to the Gulf states though was there?. Petro-Dollar system effectively barred them from developing any institutions and technology that might compete with the west.

They tied their own hands

Read this by @ripplebrain. A devastating indictment.

@marooonsmoke I’m sorry for your loss, may her soul rest in peace. I hope you’re okay, and that you get the time and space to grieve.

Haverford codifies antisemitism into campus policy, stipulating that fascism and genocide are intrinsic to Jewish nature.

Socialist states (which AOC refers to as communist because she is uneducated) rely on a system of consultative democracy, where laws and constitutions are drafted and revised through mass participation by regular people. It‘s literally more democratic than our system.

Why everyone from SF sound so white?

it used to be really hard to consume enough protein to make working out worthwhile. your choices were to eat enough chicken breast until you’re nauseous or drink some whey isolate chalky disgusting proteinslop for about 15g of protein.

My dad died around 4am. And the sun still came up. The cats still needed to be fed. Coffee needed to be made. A friend texted to see if I wanted to go thrifting. And I think it's kinda unfair that the rest of the world didn't stop too.

@ThomBrady5 ok, back to the point you haven’t addressed. which wars have you won?

Finally, the day I can make a software that determines whether an arbitrary program will eventually stop is here! 🙏🥲

Abdul El-Seyed said this the morning after 'israel' bombed Al-Ahli Baptist Hospital in Gaza and murdered 471 Palestinians.

Abdul El-Sayed was signalling from the start: use me, pick me.

It’s a Muslim counterinsurgency happening right now, just like the counterinsurgency of the BLM era. During BLM, Black folks were killed in the streets, then the state greenlit “electing” a Black elite and contained people’s consciousness right back into the electoral playbook.

The same thing has happened with Palestine. A genocide happens, then all these Muslim “outsiders” get elected — containing Muslims’ consciousness straight to the poll booth, buying into the same state committing the genocide. Same playbook, different actors. The people get duped again.

In all seriousness, these loser shut-ins were in the right place at the right time, and now have perceived social status for likely the very only time in their lives. They do not want that to go away. This and marxist loser mentality underlies all of these posts. Jensen was right

@Aboredguy6 @noinconsistency Meh, it never mattered much to me, I just kept using master and went about my life.

I think most people took issue with the political statement being made, which was in poor taste.
