Fruit is often named by what it becomes.

And in a very different way, so are we.

New from The Operative: raisins, prunes, Barnabas, loose connections, and the question I can’t quite shake:

What are we becoming? https://t.co/mAmJQQ1aNu

What if the thing everyone mocked was never the point? A quiet story about asking for the moon—and getting what actually matters. https://t.co/Od9FDweBu0

@Bryan_Duncan Exciting (not to mention fun)! If you need any sort of photo/graphics, happy to help. Give Rick my best!

@Bryan_Duncan @YouTube Amid the hundreds of musicians I've had the honor and pleasure of photographing over the decades, I always thought one day I'd see Leland. No such luck...but loved him live in James Taylor Concerts!

@tedcruz My AI Bias Buster—helps AI give balanced, fact-based answers—esp political topics. Separates verifiable facts from interpretation, forces equal standards on all sides, and flags where evidence is solid vs. speculative. Just paste this before your question:

A $6B Trump Media–TAE merger made headlines.
What caught my attention happened years earlier—behind the camera.
Power doesn’t create character. It reveals it.
A story the headlines rarely tell. https://t.co/2NM1cIFFne

The week I accidentally took Sharon Stone’s room in the Bahamas, shared an elevator with Karl Lagerfeld, closed a 40-year loop with Regis Philbin in Venice, and watched Casino Royale in the exact suite I’d just stayed in. https://t.co/Hp0xlnc7Sw

When the Bubble Pops and the Taxi Disappears
A yellow taxi floated by inside a soap bubble this morning. I watched it vanish with a pop, and instead of sadness I felt… relief? A short meditation on AI, progress, and the strange mercy of things that quietly stop needing to exist. https://t.co/ogZ8qBoyjb

@johnnyh996 @Fair_and_Biased Thank you, Johnny. You voiced what a lot of us quietly feel—that the GOP would do well to open its eyes a bit wider. Many of us vote Republican not out of loyalty, but because it’s the closest fit to our convictions. Your framing beautifully puts words to that tension.

@OliLondonTV I don't know what's more pathetic, this nasty voice or those who keep giving her what she wants...noteritty. Stop already.

I share your respect for Christian heritage, but your argument missed. American church bells are rare—local, brief & largely symbolic. The call to prayer is entirely different: 5 times a day, every day, nationwide, amplified w/loudspeakers, overlapping cities & explicitly instructive.

Church bells are occasional tone; the adhan is a constant declaration. They’re not equivalents & pretending they are muddies the conversation.

I just wish you’d drawn that line—it’s the stronger, more defensible point.

@DerrickEvans4WV @jaime_solis It's crazy because it did not happen. You know, checking the factual nature of such "crazy" claims is as easy as Grok/Chat. Check it out.

Bottom line: even though the Jan. 6 count was pardoned, Wilson is incarcerated on the separate gun convictions that the courts say the pardon doesn’t reach. Unless there’s a new, specific pardon for those counts—or a higher-court reversal—he remains lawfully in custody (which I am sure 100+ have already cited...).

Reshaping the Original: Archimedes had his Eureka moment in a bath. Mine came with a bath mat. Turns out I’ve been reshaping more than towels… I’ve been reshaping God. https://t.co/s3cIDEJLw0
