1/3 I quoted this in my sermon yesterday, & each time I read it I’m in wonder at how much we can learn right now from the 16th & 17th century Church:

“No man is an island,
entire of itself;
every man is a piece of the continent,
a part of the main. ...

No hate. Not in La Liga.

When a player gets targeted by homophobic fans for painting his nails, his team and their fans respond.

NBC started with falsifying the feed at the Opening Ceremony when Vance was booed and loudly by the crowd. Y’all think we can’t see this on other actual news orgs’ streams?

Your toadying is disgusting and dangerous, @NBCSports — and will
lose you viewers. Permanently.

People are worried about how American athletes are representing America.

Meanwhile Trump:

Posts racist videos
Calls female journalists piggy
Tells women to “smile” when discussing pedophilia
Has ICE killing people & getting away with it

The athletes are not the problem.

@dadmann_walking Mary Did You Know?

Since she had to say yes to begin with, of course she did , so it’s just an idiotic, treacly pile of assuming women are stupid.

Our dog knows way too many phrases now, so my husband and I have resorted to talking like Victorian nobility to get anything by him. "Have you taken the dog on a brisk adventure recently? Would you escort the canine to the backyard, forthwith? Has he supped yet?"

@focusfronting As one of those kids all grown up, I endorse this message.

I once served at a church where a couple of women in the greeting line would comment every so often on my weight.

Today I was told I don’t have any wrinkles.

HA! WINNING!

I miss Molly Ivins almost every day.

It is just so beyond horrible that Molly Ivins isn’t here for this.

Dear Black Men Supporting Trump,
I'd like to introduce you to this man, Lee Atwater. Now, you may not know who Lee Atwater is, but he's had a profound impact on your life over the past 50ish years. You see, he's the architect of a thing called the Southern Strategy...

@lippyent Does “we had it, but it didn’t come in unless it was 106” count as a no?
