even after a lifetime of eye rolling at the "fever swamps," it's shocking to catch up with where right wing loony culture has landed
it's no longer just about objectionable politics, not to minimize that aspect in the least, but a lot has become a firehose of free-floating viral mass psychosis

We say lots of words on our news. Are they true words? I am not sure. Are they good words? Persuasive words? I do not know.
In fact I don’t remember anything before 6:00 this morning. I am afraid I may be a rapidly declining clone of the original Anthony Dokoupil. Help me. Please.

Been reading this over and over and can't for the life of me understand what he's even trying to say. This is a lot of words to say... nothing.

I am an atheist but I have a reasonably robust argument that he is the antichrist. However, I really think we need to convince him to give a speech atop Mount Zaphon just to be sure.
Honestly, at some point the burden of proof is on atheists that Trump is not the antichrist.
it's incredible how if you put this entire dialog into the Left Behind series, it would basically work, but instead it's just IRL MN

1930s people seething that our zeppelin future might actually be real
NEW: China is testing a megawatt-scale airborne wind system that captures stronger high-altitude winds, potentially producing up to 10× more energy with 40% less material and 30% lower costs. It could also be quickly deployed to supply emergency power after disasters.

If you follow white supremacists and christian nationalists enough, you're guaranteed to see a pretty weird amount of hate for Episcopalians eventually. The former hate them for supporting civil rights, the latter hate them for being (relatively) normal about LGBTQ people.
It would not surprise me if ICE ends up killing Episcopalian clergy, sadly. Episcopalian ministers go pretty hard in the paint for civil rights.
The story of Jonathan Daniels, an Episcopalian seminary student, pushing Ruby Sayles out of the way of a KKK shotgun blast in Alabama comes to mind.

Former Episcopalian here. I left the church more out of my personal agnosticism than any fault of the church itself, and damn if they don't come close to luring me back to the pews sometimes.

Amount of blood US has expended defending Greenland: zero. Amount of blood Denmark has expended defending the US: 43 Danish soldiers gave their lives in Afghanistan, responding to a US appeal under article 5 of NATO. Ogles has no idea about any of this, because he's an incompetent buffoon.
Ogles: "It's important that we have a stake in Greenland, that they are quite frankly a protectorate of the US. They've been in relationship with Denmark - that needs to end. We've spilled more blood protecting Greenland than the Danes... we are the dominant predator force in the Western Hemisphere"

if you're a Democratic leader in a blue state you're often Democrat by default rather than conviction *and* you often came up through dysfunctional, long-standing institutions. If you're in a red state you're much more likely to be a fighter and reformer.
