I can't pretend to understand this but God is obviously here on Earth vividly hallucinating that He is you but He only starts to realize who He is when He gets really good at being you and that sometimes takes a lot of deaths and respawns

The California election is an epic & perhaps final boast. We sit behind this impregnable line, & here we have all power. Exhaust yourself in your fury, go ahead, & when it burns out, behold your impotence. You will do nothing in the end, for what can you do? It is a new age.

This is staggering –
Of the 369,000 jobs the U.S. Labor Dept. says were created since last year, nearly all - 348,000 of them - went to women, and only 21,000 went to men.
Basically, that means 94% of the net employment growth in the U.S. went to women.
Ninety four percent!
