@J3nnif3rMaga@Suzierizzo1 Little girls have to sit down to pee… men go into public stalls and piss everywhere because nobody taught them to aim with Cheerios when they were kids.
@freeholdpod @Suzierizzo1 You want your daughters sitting on toilets that are covered in piss in the men’s room because we don’t sit down to pee? Public men’s rooms are far more disgusting than women’s because they don’t piss standing up.
@thechosentv Possibly my favorite scene of the entire series. Love what the show did to end this episode where Jesus laments until He sees Gaius and remembers His love for us is His motivation
@TheCriticalDri1 “Such an easy technique”
Yeah, no shit. This is what a toddler would do if they were allowed to play with a blackstone. Repeal the 19th amendment.
The true consequences of American and Israeli action in Iran won't be fully known to us for years to come.
It was easy to be triumphalist in the early days of the Iraq War.
It is easy to be triumphalist in the early days of this one.
And indeed there is much to celebrate:
Our military is unmatched by any fighting force in the world, Trump has firmly reestablished American deterrence, the Iranian regime -- which has been the leading state sponsor of terrorism my entire life -- is being degraded by the hour, China is far more contained than it has been in a decade or more, our allies in Israel and around the Middle East will soon be out from under the constant threat of the Mullahs.
These are all enormous goods that will make America safer, stronger, and more prosperous.
But while war requires bravado and confidence, we should remember the lessons of history. Nothing ever goes according to plan. Massive societal change is most always accompanied by violence, and nature abhors a vacuum.
And so we should meet the moment with prayer: Prayer for our troops, prayer for our allies, prayer for the innocent in Iran and Israel and around the world in harm's way today. Prayer for the consequences we cannot plainly see.
Most of all, prayer for our own hearts that we not let pride in country and hatred of evil blind us to the human cost of such an action, and that we don't let empathy and fear blind us to the evil we oppose or rob us of our will to oppose it.
Resolve and humility are hard to balance.
I saw a report state that tariffs cost the average tax payer $1,000 in 2025. Yet multiple other reports I’ve read stated that revenue from tariffs exceeded $160B (revenue per $1k, per tax payer)
Its almost like I get more bang for my buck with higher tariffs and lower taxes
@worldly6969@BlondeOfWar He uses cheaper whiskey to clean the glass before expensive scotch… his methods actually make a difference. He calls it “opening the bouquet” when he pours that little bit of water in there, and it 100% helps bring out the different notes. Cowboy shots are still good too though
