I've known kind people and good people, but not someone who was both.
It turns out that kindness comes from empathy, and that's a sin. You can be kind or good, not both.
If that's strange to you, you might not be an evangelical Christian. To you I say: Stay kind. The "good" people have their reward.

Six months into the 2nd season of the Trump shitshow & the prices he promised to lower are higher, the war he promised to end on day one is still raging & and the Epstein files he promised to declassify either don’t exist, were created by Obama, or say nothing at all.

So much winning. 👍🏻

Any time someone tells you they are going to use “common sense” you should prepare for the worst
The head of the FDA tells us they're taking a look at the dietary guidelines and that the food pyramid is out.

The food pyramid has not been in use since 2011 when MyPlate replaced it.

A backdoor here, a backdoor there. What could go wrong? It's not like geopolitical adversaries can figure those out, and it's not like political leaders and intelligence assets use iPhones. I see no unintended consequences here

I know Mahmoud. Like all of these attacks, this is so heartbreaking and wrong. "Israeli police raided a long-established Palestinian-owned bookstore in east Jerusalem, detaining the owners and confiscating books about the decades-long conflict. The police claimed the books incited violence."
