A Christianity that believes it needs a political party, president, legislation, and a nation to ensure its survival is a Christianity that actually dethrones Jesus as king of the nations and advances a belief that even Jesus needs a government to be his savior.

THREAD: I got laid off from NYMag/Vulture after 14 years. The family lost 75% of income + medical. Now mzs.press bookstore, once a side project. is do-or-die for Judith & I. I feel weird telling you this because others are doing much worse. But if you could like or share this, we'd be so grateful!

The interests of the American state are directly at odds with the interest of the American people.

Opinion: Bluesky is a dangerous echo chamber because no one wants to hear from me, specifically They just… blocked me. Like I’m some kind of annoyance, rather than the iconoclastic and fascinating truth-teller which I know myself to be.

I need my own office so I can rock out as the spirit moves me. Also so I can sit in the weird pretzel way I want without questions.

Great to know their CEO doesn't even understand how AI works. It's not anxious because it's conscious, dumbass. It's anxious because you've been scraping the social media of users living and posting through fucking unstable times.

I have learned 12 languages and somehow none of them are Spanish, the only one I need for my current job. Time to change that.

Beginning to worry I'm not going to get the interview invitation. It's been a little over a week since the job posting closed. Patience is not my strength when it comes to this.

Somehow I'm both too tired to stay up but unwilling to go to bed because I haven't had enough free time.

Olivia is a reporter in Syria. When her boyfriend insists on following & tragedy happens, something else happens: she is given a link to tech that can change the past & she does. He lives but at terrible cost to the world. She has to make it right & stay ahead of the guardians of the tech.

Enjoyed

It's totally okay! It's that not obvious from the outside it was a joke that's on me.

Proton mail handed over data they were legally required to hand the Swiss government, who handed it to the FBI. It's not Proton's fault.

Proton mail accepts cash payment, so if you truly want to be anonymous, that's the way to go.

Democrats may not be able to prevent Mullin's confirmation, but they can certainly turn his track record of offense and stupidity into two days of televised humiliation so spectacular that he is wounded in Trump's eyes from day 1. That is the job.
