Pope Francis rejects Just War Theory: “Wars are always unjust. Because the one who pays is the people of God. … Our hearts cannot help but cry in front of the children, the women killed, all the victims of the war. War is never the way.” https://t.co/DIaClJjCQa

Also destroyed in the attack: the fallacy that Putin would escalate up to and including nuclear weapons were Crimea and the Black Sea fleet attacked.⌛️

I’d like to wish a happy Deaf Awareness Day to the Deaf Community of Riverside! This year’s DeaFestival is centered around the theme: A World Where Deaf People Can Sign Anywhere.
Let’s do our part to make this hope a reality.

Learned about Victor Jara after playing in a venue named in his honor. The junta tortured public figures as a terror. They broke all the bones in Jara's hands, smashed them to paste. They hammered out all his teeth. They shot him and left him in the street for his mother to find.

The University of Oxford now officially has a Professor of Black Theology. Change is glacial, people. But it happens. And this recognition could not happen to a more worthy scholar. Congratulations, Anthony, and @UniofOxford on this great day!

@fakehistoryhunt for a short while, we had airships on the west coast (thanks apparently to Sergei Brin, closet Zeppelin geek) and I'd get so excited whenever one showed up over LA. And of course we have Goodyear, whose current fleet are Zeppelin products

A little known story in US history.
A new documentary, produced by Hawaii-born Ryan Kawamoto, chronicles the harrowing journeys of evicted Japanese American families in Hawaii during World War II.

⚠️Damnit folks--📌DEATHS DOUBLED, 📌HOSPITAL TRIPLED, 📌EMERGENCY ROOM VISITS QUADRUPLED--we are in a sharp surge in ER visits (4x), hospital admissions (3x), and even deaths (2x) due to #COVID19. It's in the damn published data--but NOBODY in the media is talking about this numbers! Why?!?! This data is over 12 days old too--no excuse. We still have super dense folks quibbling if this is a 'surge' or not, and quibbling if we should even test anymore. A sharp 2x rise in deaths, and 4x rise in ER visits nothing to worry about? Don't be a ghoul. Think of others too--have empathy for your family members, friends, and neighbors, and think of their #LongCovid risk too. Each re-infection adds to the cumulative risk of LC, which CDC says LC can last months and even YEARS!

➡️Oh, and @CDCgov, try to put PREVENTION first, not just hand wave about 'having the tools' and merely cheap talk about 'handwashing' @CDCDirector Cohen! Like many other parents, my child also caught COVID early last week, and so I am a very pissed off parent. Stop putzing around--the Biden WH, CDC, states, cities, workplaces and schools all need to take this seriously. And for the love of God--use N95 masks in all hospitals/doctors offices, plus clean indoor air is not political--get HEPA filters & cheap Corsi Boxes in all schools and workplaces. I beg you. #COVIDisNotOver #MaskUp #CleanAirForAll

Years before Saudi Arabia turned its back on Wahhabism, the movement had already been in decline. It's these longstanding problems, not just the current political environment, that make the Wahhabi decay irreversible, argues @hxhassan | @newlinesmag https://t.co/2ZcvmSUZmc

New “second century” papyrus containing sayings of Jesus. @JeremiahCoogan and Dan Wallace getting mentions too. Excellent work situating the significance of this find for Gospels study @candidamoss !

Today’s #ArchivesHashtagParty theme is #ArchivesCommunity. From girl scouts to gardening, painting to playing games, Japanese Americans created their own meanings of community while incarcerated.
