@JoeGarrisi_own No, it’s an Ordo Amoris issue. First love your own, then love the others. Liberals (most missionaries) invert those. They out love of others before their own. That’s why William Carey’s kids starved on behalf of his ministry.
Hey @grok yes or no
Did the Bolsheviks force Christians to submerge their hands in boiling water, and then they removed to skin forming human skin “gloves?”
This one is heartbreaking.
He spent 25 YEARS at Adobe.
Senior Software Quality Engineer.
More than 15 years of quality engineering experience.
Laid off in August 2025.
Then he spent more than a year looking for another job in tech.
Applications filtered out.
Recruiters ghosted him.
Interviews that never happened.
Eventually, he gave up.
His next career?
Driving a school bus.
There is absolutely nothing wrong with driving a school bus. It’s important, honest work.
But something is deeply broken when an American with 25 years at one of the world’s premier software companies can’t find another job in tech while we’re simultaneously told America has such a shortage of tech talent that employers need hundreds of thousands of foreign-worker positions.
This is what gets lost in the H-1B debate.
These aren’t statistics.
They’re people.
Before we search the world for another tech worker, shouldn’t Americans like him at least get a fair shot?
The new president of the Catholic Biblical Association is a Jew.
She says Christians have spent centuries unfairly maligning the Pharisees, insists “Pharisee” should no longer be synonymous with “hypocrite,” and says some biblical texts “need a warning label.”
She has even asked why Christians can't “change Sunday readings” that she believes prejudice Christians against Jews.
The Pharisees, you see, were ACKSHUALLY the Good Guys ™.
Jesus was okay.
But the Pharisees?
Really great, if you get to know them!
She thinks Jesus is “good enough already” without needing an antagonist.
Amy-Jill Levine's project as president of the Catholic organization will be to rehabilitate the Pharisees, revise troublesome lectionary readings, recast Jesus as a Jewish teacher rather than Lord and Savior, and dismantle traditional readings of the Bible's prohibitions on homosexuality and abortion, some “Judeo-Christian ethic” thrown in for spice.
In short:
She wants to demote Jesus from Lord and Savior to a Jewish mascot to educate Christians about their “Jewish roots” and now she's president of the Catholic Biblical Association.
Teshon Gardner (23) raped a woman in her home at gunpoint but that wasn't depraved enough for him.
When he realized the woman's 12 year old daughter was also in the home, he stoped his ongoing rape of the woman and found the 12 year old little girl.
He then proceeded to rape both women and record himself doing so.
When people say "you are your own first responder" this is what we mean.
Everyone has a choice. Do you want to arm yourself/family with a firearm and the knowledge/skills to use it or do you want to be a victim and have police show up and take a report of the crime after it has happened? Not making a choice is a choice.
Arm yourselves accordingly...

A great way to love God and love your neighbor is to:
1. Stop letting criminal demographics into America.
2. Execute these criminals publicly within 30 days of their arrest.
Rent is $1700. Electricity is $200+. Used cars are $20k at 12%.
These kids are $60k in debt and bring home $1100 every two weeks from a full time job that’s slowly being replaced by AI or H1B’s.
“Cook at home” is pure boomerslop and why socialism has a foothold you condescending pricks.
The conservatives on here denying the affordability crisis are engaged in what I can only describe as an act of political suicide. They're also lying, which is the worst part. Grocery prices are up. Housing. Energy. Insurance. Health care. Basic living expenses. It's real. It's happening. Denying it just makes you look out of touch, deceitful, and untrustworthy. It's also a completely unnecessary and unforced error. No credible person is claiming that Trump caused these price surges. You don't have to disgrace yourself by denying the reality in front of your face just to prove your loyalty to Trump. The causes for the most part are multi faceted, complicated, and longstanding. That's true. So let's discuss them. Debating whether the problem exists at all -- or, if it does exist, whether it counts as a problem -- is a total waste of time, and makes you look like a shill and a fraud.
i met someone who waymos her daughter to school & back everyday.
they calculated the cost for a car, gas, & insurance for a 16 year old driver is more expensive than using waymo’s.
the future is remarkably visible but not yet full accessible.
My son works full time here in Florida. Let me run his numbers.
State minimum wage is $14/hour. He's at $15.
40 hours a week = $600/week
That's about $2,600/month before taxes.
Florida has no state income tax the thing they sell you on. So after federal and FICA he takes home roughly $2,200.
Average one-bedroom in our area runs about $1,600.
That's 73% of his entire paycheck gone to rent before he eats a single meal.
Leaves him around $600 a month for:
- groceries
- gas
- car insurance
- health insurance
- phone
- emergencies
- savings
Car insurance alone eats a third of that in this state.
He works 40 hours a week and cannot save a dollar. Not because he's careless because there's nothing left to be careless with.
I spent thirty years paying off a house here. He's doing the same job I did at his age and he can't afford a one-bedroom.
That's not a discipline problem. That's not avocado toast.
The floor moved and nobody lowered the ceiling.
Working full time should cover a roof. In Florida it barely covers the rent on one.
Last night, my wife made homemade burritos for our family of 8 and it cost less than $20 total for everyone.
Im beginning to think the affordability crisis is really an “I don’t know how to cook” crisis
The man who murdered this boy was just released from prison and was acquitted by reason of insanity
If you’re too insane to be held accountable for killing a young boy, you’re too insane to be on the streets. Not only that, you’re too insane to live in our society. He should be put to death.
Will the judge be held as an accomplice when he strikes again??
Got approached by two park rangers in full gear today for teaching tennis to my own children. Empty park, 3:15pm on a Thursday.
No permit, $192 fine. Unless you can prove the students came out of you. I asked my kids to confirm I’m their dad.
Somewhere in San Francisco an actual crime is happening, but at least the forehand situation is under control.
Not a great use of city resources. But that’s just my opinion. 🤷🏻♂️🎾
Women are conformists by nature.
It’s why you never let your wife hang with:
- Divorcees
- Feminists
- Liberals
- Atheists
Over time, she will empathize and conform. Part of Christian patriarchy is leading your wife toward other holy women.
