Disregarding Many Doctors, RFK suggests More Monkeys Jumping on the Bed.
The GNT is my go-to for reading through the Bible and it uses tables for many of the lists. Makes it a BIT easier to get through those parts.
3 months after I took current job, my adjunct position was eliminated (I depended on that $ in order to make it here). 58% of every paycheck I send to my ex & kids. And it's not enough. W/o teaching job, I'm in the red constantly. Still haven't received ins funds to repair damage to house from last July. Now their driveway is almost washed away & will cost $5-7k to repair. Beside myself w/anxiety. Times are rough for everyone but if you can help, it's GREATLY appreciated.
Haven’t posted anything like this in a long time bc I don’t like to. But so overwhelmed rn I don’t know what else to do. #mutualaidrequest ko-fi.com/johnallenban...
The pellet with the poison’s in the Vessel with the Pestle. The Chalice from the Palace has the brew that is true.
I believe the children are our future: teach them well and let them lead the way. Show them all the beauty they possess inside.
Only one set of footprints: that’s when I carried you.
It’s … findy? Woggy? 🤣
The premise of everything that the administration does is that January 6th was legally legitimate, the Biden Administration was not, and crime in the sense of stuff meriting state punishment is committed by people of color and their allies.
Pretty sure they would receive the same name here in the US. “Can I get that in a sack, to go?”
Καλή ανάσταση! Χριστός ανέστη!

Yep. These people cray.
Yes. That & the similarity of our stories. I have a brother but we aren’t close to say the least, and I have kids but only 2 (at most) will miss me, & even then I have no idea how long it would take for them to notice I’ve gone. Despite my best efforts, no partner or anything remotely like that.
I can’t tell you how this has shaken me. I hurt so deeply for him. All alone. And I fear this will be me one day. We were not meant to be alone.
Yesterday (Friday) I found out that he had been taken to the hospital Tuesday morning and had died there Tuesday afternoon. He had pancreatic cancer and had told no one about it.
Reeling from the death of a friend from college. Only child, parents both dead, no relatives. Lived alone. Was online a lot so Wednesday when I hadn’t heard from him since Sunday, I started calling police where he lived for welfare checks.
When a foreigner resides with you in your land, you shall not oppress the foreigner. The immigrant who resides with you shall be to you as the citizen among you. You shall love the immigrant as yourself, for you were refugees in the land of Egypt: I am the Lord your God.

As Trump’s unauthorized war on Iran with Israel entered into its second month, some Democratic officials were looking around and wondering: Where are the anti-war protests this time around?

I'm sure there are countries that have betrayed every principle they ever stood for faster than the United States but it's hard to think of one right now
I have magnesium gummies that I chew at night and just water. No nice people. 😢
Massive headache, RLS, depression, and anxiety, all at once. Good times.
Dire Straits, “Sultans of Swing.” I really need this right now. This and someone to sit with me and tell me I matter
6:30 & I’m going to bed. Everything is far too much
My one-hour special “Rick Steves Iran: Yesterday and Today,” which helps humanize 90 million Iranian people, is streaming free and ad-free at www.ricksteves.com/watch-iran.
To conservatives who’ve objected when some of us have suggested Trump is a fascist, and who’ve complained when some us point out that much of real existing American conservatism has devolved into fascism, if you’re silent about Trump’s threat of genocide you’re proving the point you’ve objected to.
Goodness do we need an opposition party
