And everyone around the table said nothing to correct him. Not only are his comments sci-fi, he also got buy in from the rest of the folks in the room. Definitely living in the Twilight Zone.

Sec. 2 . Policy. (a) It is the policy of the United States to prosecute to the fullest extent permitted under Federal law, and as appropriate, any person or any entity that destroys, damages, vandalizes, or desecrates a monument, memorial, or statue within the United States

I’ve been thinking a lot about Murkowski’s vote. It contains, in one action, so much that defines our pathetic political moment:

Lack of accountability: I know the bill is bad, hopefully someone else will fix it;

Exactly

1984 was the high watermark of US pop music. I'm just glad I was alive to hear the radio back then... we didn't have the Internet or social media, but we didn't need it! The very air was filled with SOUND when we were kids...

two posts from threads first is from @camillecardonaa and says: I just found out that only 1.5% of Japan's population is Christian and I'm heartbroken. second is a reply from @orangedweller and says: Hi. Japan's homicide rate is 07% per 100K. United States homicide rate is 5.7% per 100K. Japan's unhoused population in 2024: 2,820. United States unhoused: 653,104. Japan also has one of the highest food security rates in the whole big world. Meanwhile, in the US, 18 million people are food insecure. Maybe this Sunday you can ask the Christians what their bible says about poor people and murder. Sorry bout your heart.
