People act like tax the rich is a radical take but for a start we could be taxing them the same amount as people making minimum wage. That would be a start.

"Magataotao" on Twitter writes: "I am Catholic. This👇is not my Pope."

Attached is a video of the Pope saying that we should search for peace and reject war.

A community note under their tweet says: "You are not a Catholic if you do not accept the Pope, but rather a schismatic.

Canon 751: “Schism is the refusal of submission to the Supreme Pontiff,” ie. the Pope.

AND- the rest is all recession oriented!! In 2008, numbers of ppl in their thirties went up, while ppl in their 20s went down, in part because people can no longer afford kids, and even then they may not ever get there, instead deciding “fuck it it’s now or never” at 35.

FOREWORD
There's something to be said for scholarly objectivity. A scholar who cannot remain objective has a tendency to see what isn't there, to project and distort. But there's also something to be said for subjectivity, for examining something from within. Such subjectivity allows a deeper grasp than objective observation. To speak objectively of Bacchic euphoria misses the entire point of the experience, and is nothing like speaking of such frenzy after feeling the presence of Dionysos.
I am not an objective scholar in regard to these hymns. For one thing, I have a weird love for the ancient Greek language, and it's hard not to take a certain personal glee in feeling a sentence fall into place.
But more importantly, I believe in the gods who are the subjects of these hymns.
The exact manner in which I believe in them changes from day to day and moment to moment. Sometimes they are abstract laws with a consciousness of their own existence, not much more personal than gravity. Sometimes they are psychological functions-metaphors and stories that give a life a mythographic shape. And other times they are individuals, as real and singular as anyone I pass in the street: Pan pressing his hooves in the loam; Artemis stalking with her silver bow between the trees; Poseidon in the deep, wreathed in kelp, sporting with dolphins; and always, of course, Zeus on high, stepping from the mountain tops to strike the earth with his bolts.
I suspect the gods are all those things and more, just as I myself m many different people and many different kinds of people. And my It sense of these hymns, having lived with them for a while now, is it Orpheus had a similar multifarious view of the gods.

This is one of the reasons why I fuck with the Dunn translation of the Orphic hymns
