"Deacon, I told you not to throw rocks. Why did you throw rocks??"

"Because I'm Deacon and I throw rocks."

They just skip over the parts they don't like. You know, same with caring for the sick and needy.

I finally watched the #gop response to the Address #darkbrandon gave the country.

Like she did in the last Administration, #huckabee still lies.

How can people who claim to be Christian look at themselves in the mirror after telling these falsehoods. There is a Commandment against lying, right?

What a coincidence! I call today's look "Yes, I did just eat a handful of salted nuts while wearing black jeans"

I call today’s look, β€˜I can’t find my lint roller, but I’m fucking wearing these black pants anyway.’

Last Sunday afternoon, my wife and I decided to play a game of Risk.

"I'll be coming down with something a week from next Tuesday. I'll need two days for the fever and chills to stop, then another day to get the coughing under control."

@ScottSoCal I’ll need to schedule some time for a lunch-and-learn so I can be more effective at not being sick

New name for the type of cishet white leftist who says shit like "the only struggle is class struggle" while ignoring issues only people of color experiences.

It's not one of the main time machine destinations but I think it would be pretty tight to pop over to november 13, 1833, and check out the leonid meteor shower, which hit an estimated 100,000 meteors per hour at its peak

I think website's finished enough now to start mentioning the url, so...

*quietly whispers* "tadaaa...."

It's just a place to be able to point to separate from social media, but there are more than a few new and better pictures, and I'm happy it's now both Dutch and English. So enjoy if you want to look around :artpeek:.

(I'm also pretty chuffed that it's .art now, instead of .nl).

#SOTU
For a European, #Biden speech last night was a show of hope, that at least more then half the #USA voters are not complete delusional christian fanatics and that there is still faith in #Democracy.
