I love Jesus and Andrew Isker.

I need an audible book recommendation for my morning walks. For ideas, I just finished JD Vance’s “Communion”, and loved it.

We need to target the business owners that hire illegals. Make them socially toxic. Make their families ashamed to show their face in public.

They are harboring enemies of America. The social contagion will travel faster than ICE can.

Isn’t it weird that literally every pundit who thinks the Iran War is totally awesome also believes that a fast food burrito is a luxury item reserved only for the wealthy and anyone on the right who says the cost of living is out of control is a “groyper”?

What a coincidence!

The question of "who are the people of God today?" has long been a controversial one, and today it is as contentious as it has ever been.

Seemingly every few days there is a flare up between neoconservatives and dispensationalist-influenced evangelicals on one side and the online right and traditional Protestants (and Catholics) on the other.

Just this past week, the subject of the term "Judeo-Christian" was the source of a considerable amount of vitriol (and inevitable talking past one another to score points).

In this book, which has long been promised to you, I lay out what the New Testament actually says, how the covenantal relationship between God and His people developed and was fulfilled in Jesus Christ.

I am not deluded enough to think this will be the final word on the question, but hope that at least I can contribute clarity to a subject of tremendous confusion, and in such a way that sheds light on the subject rather than simply more heat.

If you want to examine a biblical case for why Christ and those united to Him are the Chosen People of God, please read.

Can you send me the best lemon tart recipe? I made one a couple years ago and can’t remember from which website I got the recipe!

@pegobry_en Why are they confusing pregnancy with doing meth?

New factor for the great sort: Do you live in an area where you will be sent to jail for insulting a sex offender who is harassing you and your child at the park?

[Kara Isker @karaisker]

@CheerfulReader I looked at that recipe today and I definitely want to try that as well!

[Kara Isker @karaisker]

@witlegit I want to dine there!

I am not a strict Sabbatarian but I am 1000% in favor of Blue Laws.

If your god isn’t GDP, you have no problem with this.

Proud to have been part of making this happen.

Coolidge-Nixon dinners replacing Lincoln-Reagan dinners will happen within a decade.

JD Vance: "There is a Christian idea of political economy that's actually been lost in American politics. One of the best interviews that Charlie Kirk ever gave was right before he died, where he talked about the fact that if you don't give young people a stake, if you don't give them ownership, if you don't give them a sense of the American dream, and of possibility in the future, they're going to become socialists."

I have a t-shirt that a buddy left behind after my bachelor party. It’s a youth football shirt for the next town over from my hometown.

It is the most comfortable shirt I have.

It is extremely tattered and now has more holes than the plot of a Christopher Nolan movie.

It might be my favorite possession.

Every time my wife tries to throw it away I think of this guy.

JD Vance’s first executive order on January 20, 2029: melting down the Emma Lazarus poem on the Statue of Liberty.

It’s popular to hate boomers, but when I took my entire family to see Young Washington to an early morning showing, the theater was full of boomer chud patriots, we were the only young family there, and they all praised me for taking my children to it. Wonderful people.

They might not “get it” like young people do and take whatever Fox News says as gospel, but they love our country a lot. We don’t appreciate them enough.

Mystery Grove made a point in his review of the movie (you should stop being a free subscriber immediately) that you see this dynamic in the movie.

Washington was an ambitious young guy who “got it” but made a mess of everything the first chance he had at wielding authority as young people often do. The older general who didn’t “get it” was dismissive of him because of his own extensive experience and Washington’s lack thereof. This was a guy who didn’t “get it” but very obviously was competent and understood how things work. He was a professional soldier who knew how to command an army but just didn’t get how to fight in those conditions.

What Washington did was demonstrate his own competence and gained the older man’s trust over time. Eventually the older man came to see his virtue and handed command over to him as he was dying (no idea if that actually happened irl, doesn’t matter tbh).

This is often the disconnect that young people have with Boomers. As much as they “don’t get it,” they know how the world works in ways that young people do not, and there is a lot we can learn from them. When we are young we actually know way less than we think we do and older people we think of as aloof understand the world better than we do despite the lack of updating their priors. We should have a lot more humility in dealing with them than we do, and should work hard to demonstrate that we are trustworthy to them as much as we can.

Anyway, both the subtle message of the movie and the audience for it that I interacted with made this point to me.

There are obviously issues with the boomer generation, but constant war with them is not going to make things better for anybody. Better to accept their shortcomings and meet them where they are, and do what must be done to make things better for all of us.
