I know @waitwait just hired @alzoslade as their new judge/scorekeeper, but that role has traditionally been held by a newsman. Is it too late to hire Scott Pelley? I hear he's available now. (No shade to Alzo, he's great.)

@wewwers Man, there's truth to that! But ideally, our republic is *supposed* to protect the rights of all. If major metropolises make all the laws, the rest of the country can pound sand. We need more equal representation. Not minority rule but the minority shouldn't be excluded.

This is why we must keep the electoral college. In a popular vote, these seven regions would be all that mattered. We need equal representation.

Class action lawsuits exist most often to make lawyers rich. Today I received $8.12 from this $117.5 million 2023 settlement for a 2012-2016 data breach that I was notified about in 2019.

Requiring the USAF to satisfy all the demands stated in the legislation could see the jet's life extended well past 2030.

@wewwers I don't think I said it "grants you special valued insight into governance." I DID say that "majority rule can be another form of tyranny." We're supposed to be a republic where the rights of ALL citizens are protected, including those in the minority.

[𝑇𝚤𝑚 𝐸𝑡ℎ𝑒𝑟𝚤𝑛𝑔𝑡𝑜𝑛 @timetherington]

@wewwers I do but I don't want to monopolize representation over the other regions. Majority rule can be another form of tyranny when the minority loses their voice in decision making. This is why the filibuster must survive too.

Excellent! Hopefully this is a sign of life in Congress.

@TNVoteNoOn1 @PhilNvestigates Just ran this through Grok and apparently what Vorster meant by 'Christian nationalism' is something very different from what Doug Wilson or William Wolf mean today. Vorster was an Afrikaner who was pro-Nazi and anti-British.

I literally did this in 1983 at a burger van at a roundabout at about 1130 at night. Didn't know about English mustard. Found out very quickly.

[Josh Barzon @JoshuaBarzon]

You just won a 2-week, all-expenses-paid vacation. But there’s a catch: you have to stay within one region the whole time. What are you picking?

No, Jesus is Lord of lords. If there are no other, lesser lords, this makes no sense.

If Jesus is Lord, then Caesar is not.

if you ever formally debate a baptist it might be good to have them define "baptism" in these passages.
