The rise of Christian Nationalism

It's all about the Bible for them. The inerrant Bible that is filled with contradictions. Perhaps they should look at the Ten Commandments, particularly the last 6 or 7 commandments, depending on which set they forget about following. Imagine what life would be like if everyone loved their neighbor...

George Santos (R-NY) and his imaginative (but dishonest) résumé

Wasn't he charged with a bunch more things? Does pleading guilty to a couple of charges get you out of the others - some sort of deal? I assume they take pleas to avoid the time and expense of a trial even if there is no deal to sing. I assume prosecutors consider which charges they would be willin...

The rise of Christian Nationalism

Churches are losing members right now. Positions like this are more likely to drive folks away from Christianity than draw them in. They're the MAGA minority of Christianity. In other words, these "Christians" give Christians a bad name. I have been told other Christians need to call them...

"Vocal fry" involves essentially a high level of friction on the vocal fold (rubbing and smacking them together). As with any friction like on your heel creating callouses, a regular high level of friction on the vocal cords may eventually create nodes. They have to be removed surgically, ...

I haven't been in a school building in years. Do they no longer have analog clocks in the hallways or classrooms? They've all been replaced with digital clocks?

No, no, that's how a lot of people do it. I do it by team names, like (Anybody) Tigers vs. (Delaware) Blue Hens. I mean, tigers against chickens, how fair is that? Why are the hens blue, anyhow?
