I don’t know that Doug Wilson disagrees with him.

If they track the clicks, then that’s all the more reason to read the stories that go against the fascistic grain. Make sure they know that they only make money if they are willing to do the right thing.

Thankfully no. I went to Yellowstone as a kid and my parents had enough common sense around animals to stay on the road, or in the car, when seeing wildlife in the parks.

They were on the Nazi side until Hitler turned on them. They agreed to split Poland with Germany and would have never entered the war if they hadn’t been attacked.

80% of immigrants are Christian. What a dingbat.

It wouldn’t shock me if Vance converts to an Evangelical Denomination within the next year or two. Unless he is just unaware of what being Catholic does to his prospects of being the next MAGA candidate for POTUS.

Turn your oven into a smoker! There will be no issues, I promise.

This is my wife’s favorite way.

Christmas isn’t originally a pagan holiday, regardless of what some crackpot fundamentalists like to claim.

…that is centered on a charismatic celebrity preacher.

It’s probably not practical for winning elections right now, but centering a party on an individual personality is destructive, both to the party and the individual unlucky enough to become the lodestone of the party. Just look at the Republican Party right now, or virtually any megachurch…

The books are better than the original trilogy

The original trilogy is better than the cartoon versions of the Hobbit and RotK

Those are better than the cartoon version of the FotR and the TT rolled into one

Which is better than rings of power

Rings of Power is better than the Hobbit Trilogy

I think it’s pretty clear Peter Jackson intended to interpret it that way.

It’s not a part of the books though, far as I can see. Tolkien was a big fan of smoking tobacco in a pipe, and poured his love of that into his books.

My thoughts too. It must be horrific if you can’t clean it up enough in months for a sitting congressperson to find it acceptable.

Can they actually call him back to active duty in order to try him? My layman’s reading of the code being invoked is that the person being called back to active duty has to consent for it to actually take effect. What if he refuses?

I combine everything at the Thanksgiving dinner into one massive pile on my plate and stir it together.

This drives my wife and daughter nuts.

The school my daughter went to elementary for had a credible threat lockdown every single year she was there.

My daughter is probably an eggnog addict this time of year. She asks for a new carton of it every week.

Depends on the janitor.

I don’t love my job, but I care about the quality of the brooms and mops the company I work for buys because it makes my job easier if they are decent quality.
