A friend who teaches theology shared with me a post about CS Lewis's Mere Christianity, which discusses foundational Christian logic across denominations. It reminded me of Dale's tweet below, and I wanted to share some thoughts here regarding modesty and respectability, which are often hot topics.

Someday you, too, could have the moral fortitude to look upon a years-long rape circus organized by the nation's most powerful elites and declare, "The people upset about this are speaking about it the wrong way."

while I’m being cranky, access journalism needs to go. When the president does his “I’m alpha because I insulted you” thing somebody needs to fall on his sword and say “what the fuck is wrong with you, old man?” on a hot mic. the hero of the wizard of Oz is Toto.

I've recently learned about the existence of the bearded vulture and everyone should know about this thing. It is a large bird of prey that is the only known vertebrate whose diet is 70–90% bone. Look at this gorgeous dinosaur!

Relying on ChatGPT to teach you about a topic leaves you with shallower knowledge than Googling and reading about it, according to new research that compared what more than 10,000 people knew after using one method or the other.

I understood. lets see what he writes about the clintons. someone suggested that trump could shoot someone on fifth avenue and not lose a vote. that is true, but would make little sense for him not to suffer an immediate consequence. the allowed civil depo setting precedent for criminal process, is a lawyers outline I might think of dumbing it down, again, and suggesting that you can sue your neighbor, even if you neighbor is the president. makes little sense that the you can be indicted for assaulting him but he cannot if he assaults you.
low bar for civil higher bar for criminal. . at

If the sandwich stayed whole, the defense meets its goal
The defense team presses Lairmore on whether the sandwich really 'exploded.' They return to the photo of the sandwich and wrapper on the ground.
"That sandwich hasn't exploded at all, has it?" defense asks.
"It looks like a little bit is coming out towards the bottom," Lairmore replies.
