This reflective defensiveness in 1 and 3 is the exact tool the Church used to perpetuate further abuse. Smear the journalist as bad faith heathens all you want, they’re not the bad guys. And re: 2, trust me, I hold the SBC in significantly less esteem than the RCC

Chuck Schumer: “We have a population that is not reproducing on its own. The only way we are going to have a great future in America is if we welcome and embrace immigrants.”

It appears that aside from being taught really bizarre things about intoxication and consent, young people have also been taught really bizarre things about the meaning of coercion. They seem to think if a guy tries to persuade a woman after getting "no", that's coercion. Uh, no.

Pretty cool scene with Tom DeLonge tearing up as he watched and heard Petco Park sing “All The Small Things”. So awesome

I'll ask male prison abolitionist to rethink what they understand as "rehabilitation". Rapist aren't addicts, they don rape compulsively. they aren't thugs, they don't rape to pay the bills. They rape because harming women reassures their social status inside of male supremacy.

Nothing says “I’m innocent” quite like leaving the country as soon as a special prosecutor is assigned to investigate rape allegations against you.

Telling high IQ white men with college degrees to go to trade school to get some certificate to perform an extremely physically gruelling mediocre job with an income ceiling of 100k that would also bore the shit out of them and squander their talent, is such a demeaning insulting attempt to manage down their expectations when you should be expelling foreigners undercutting & muscling them out of the domestic labor market. Why does anyone on the ostensible right persist in this scummy behaviour? Isn’t it bad enough that the left does it?

MAGA: “Democrats hate Trump because he says what he means!” Trump: “I wouldn’t care if Iran bombed Los Angeles and San Diego.” MAGA: “That’s not what he meant!”

The SILENCE from JD Vance and Marco Rubio today is deafening.

What band is this?

❗️MAJOR BREAKING NEWS: FIVE PROMINENT TIKTOKERS ARE NOW BEING SUED IN CONNECTION WITH THE NOLAN WELLS CASE - AND MORE LAWSUITS ARE EXPECTED TO BE ANNOUNCED SOON!❗️ Five separate state-court civil lawsuits have now been filed in Jackson County, Mississippi against five social-media personalities who, according to the complaints, repeatedly used their platforms to accuse young men connected to the Nolan Wells case of murder and other serious crimes. The defendants are - ❗️Jennifer M. Sushka, known online as “Jay Megan” ❗️Damarcus Hughes, known as “Boogie LowDown” ❗️Isaiah Kelvin Harris ❗️Sandra L. Butler, known as “Royalty” ❗️Tumika Lasha Birch, known online as “Tumika LaSha.” Here are a few examples of allegations made. JENNIFER M. SUSHKA - “JAY MEGAN” She repeatedly pushed the theory that the young men were responsible for Nolan Wells’ death, including accusations involving murder, hiding his body, tampering with his phone, deleting messages and creating a false alibi. She publicly said she was “leaning more towards the side of murder” and suggested they had “intentionally tried to speed up the decomposition.” The lawsuit also alleges she monetized the accusations, stating that “Every accusation came with a donation link.” Perhaps one of the most remarkable allegations in the filing is what happened after she received written notice. The complaint quotes her as saying: “Oh, and don’t worry, I never responded to this email.” DAMARCUS HUGHES - “BOOGIE LOWDOWN” Hughes is accused in his complaint of repeatedly portraying the young men as killers, referring to them as “those white murderers” and describing Nolan’s friends as people who “may be his murderers.” The complaint further alleges that he accused or implied that they were responsible not only for Nolan’s death, but for tampering with evidence and hindering prosecution. After the Grand Jury proceedings, Hughes allegedly posted: “if YOU THOUGHT, that this Grand Jury report about # NolanWells was going to make me SHUT TF UP or MOVE ON, then you have LOST YOUR DAMN MIND!” When someone reportedly warned him that “they watching your page,” Hughes allegedly responded, “And you KNOW, that I DON’T GIVE A DAMN!” ISAIAH KELVIN HARRIS - His complaint quotes him telling his audience, “Them boys guilty as f*ck.” He called the young men “murderers” and stated: “And Nolan died. On the boat. . . . [B]efore they left, yes they murdered him.” Harris displayed a photograph of a residence along with a route map, conduct the plaintiffs included among their allegations concerning online targeting and safety. SANDRA L. BUTLER - “ROYALTY” - “Royalty” repeatedly branded the young men as responsible for Nolan’s death. Statements attributed to her include “They are guilty. They did something,” along with claims involving what supposedly happened to Nolan on the boat and theories about concealing his body. She specifically said “That crap don’t scare me and I’m gonna keep talking about them thugs. Period.” TUMIKA LASHA BIRCH — “TUMIKA LASHA” The Birch lawsuit likewise alleges that she used social media to repeatedly “brand them as killers” and accuse or insinuate that the young men bore criminal responsibility for Nolan Wells’ death. According to the complaint, her allegations went beyond Nolan’s death itself and included accusations involving tampering with physical evidence and hindering prosecution. The filing alleges a sustained campaign of false and defamatory statements and insinuations concerning these young men. THERE WILL BE MORE. I already know who is up next on the chopping block, and I am VERY excited to share as soon as I am given the green light. This gets expensive, everyone! The boys need your help. If you have been around since day one, you know just how bad this got. You know what they did to these boys. So now that lawsuits are flying, we ask that you give whatever you can to their fundraiser to help hold these people accountable!

I asked my (boomer) mom to watch my (good) kids during the day while I'm at a conference. She said yes, but in the same text: -said she wouldn't do it again -made me feel guilty for asking her since she's already so busy -said she doesn't have the stamina (she's 64 and in good health) -doesn't want to "be in a disciplinarian role" and just wants to be Grandma - is leaving early to make it back in time to attend a church function -and says I need a reliable back up plan because she may bail last minute

My husband woke me up at 2 a.m. and asked if I wanted to have sex. I told him I was too tired. He said, “Okay,” kissed my forehead, and went back to sleep. I thought that was the end of it. The next day, he was unusually quiet. I asked what was wrong. He said, “Nothing.” I pushed him a little, and finally he said: “I just miss feeling wanted by my own wife.” That annoyed me. I looked at him and said,
