Who else walks away from discussions about politics and feels like they just experienced this? https://t.co/bu632LFEeV

@SajidAli1291559 @sadhna6389 Or de-d

@Ferndiggity @OvertimeThrill He’s probably afraid that if his children became part of a minority that they would be treated as poorly as he treats minority people now.

@Acyn The newscaster’s reaction 😂😂😂

[Mark Steven 🇯🇴 @LachonceMark]

@MalaakSafa @mhdksafa James! A hero in a small package

[Mark Steven 🇯🇴 @LachonceMark]

@Ferndiggity You should. It’s very good!

@annamlulis I will not look upon them.
[23] Take away from me the noise of your songs;
to the melody of your harps I will not listen.
[24] But let justice roll down like waters,
and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream.

@annamlulis Amos 5:21-24

[21] “I hate, I despise your feasts,
and I take no delight in your solemn assemblies.
[22] Even though you offer me your burnt offerings and grain offerings,
I will not accept them;
and the peace offerings of your fattened animals, 1/2

@QueenAnticommie These guys should definitely not agree to a gender reveal, probably not even have children, perhaps not even marry.

[Mark Steven 🇯🇴 @LachonceMark]

@Ferndiggity I appreciate your posts.
How many of these are just people who have left X entirely?

[Mark Steven 🇯🇴 @LachonceMark]

@elonmusk 35% of 2 bill = 700 ml
8% of 8.2 bill = 656 ml
Roughly the same due to rounding of numbers.

“Virtually extinct” = nearly the same sheer numbers as 100 yrs ago

That’s quite a take!

Truth is all people now enjoy the benefits of children no longer starving and dying from viruses

@thedocfile @drantbradley I came here to say that

[Mark Steven 🇯🇴 @LachonceMark]

@JennMGreenberg @haymes_joshua Bingo.
And since Jesus said God allowed divorce “because of the hardness of your hearts,” we can say:
God has allowed not-ideal practices like divorce, and maybe even evil ones like slavery, and that does not condemn God as the architect of evil.

Our vice president is a troll

[JD Vance @JDVance]

The president told me he did this on Indigenous Peoples Day in honor of you.

[Mark Steven 🇯🇴 @LachonceMark]

@greenpasture No one is trying to take this from you. No one.

[Mark Steven 🇯🇴 @LachonceMark]

@JoJoFromJerz More underpaid workers for our corporate oligarchs and more foot soldiers for our corrupt, war mongering politicians

[Mark Steven 🇯🇴 @LachonceMark]

@EastEndJoe

[Mark Steven 🇯🇴 @LachonceMark]

@KaeleyT Cruelty, hierarchy, misogyny, violence.
This is not the way of Jesus. This is fundamentalist Islam, but with bacon 🥓

[Mark Steven 🇯🇴 @LachonceMark]

@CollinRugg @VasBroughtToX What, do they need to take out a six-month lease for the ambulance just for one ride?
Ridiculous

[Mark Steven 🇯🇴 @LachonceMark]

@AntiCommieBecca @JennMGreenberg Don’t give them ideas!

[Mark Steven 🇯🇴 @LachonceMark]

@drantbradley Agreed, and happy for you to have landed well. The job market is in free fall. New PhD holders like me are competing with experienced scholars like yourself who need to move. No chance for us.
Best options are often overseas, donor supported, if one can do that.
