Stop exploiting Veteran's Day by spamming people with your shit music while you support elected officials that don't give a damn about anyone else, let alone folks who serve in uniform.
For fucksake, I am so tired of conservatives commercializing veterans and selling their star-spangled tchotchkes and flag-draped, third-tier bullshit anthems. And no one ever calls them out on it. You don't care about veterans. You care about your own damn egos.

As we await details on whatever it is that's being called a "major scandal" for North Carolina gubernatorial candidate Mark Robinson, it might help to contextualize the long, long, long history of terrible behavior on his part that, apparently, wasn't enough for NC GOP.

Hard to know where to start, but let's begin with his history of antisemitism. Among other things, he's fully bought into the "Jewish bankers running the world" nonsense, frequently invoked horrible Jewish stereotypes, and basically shrugged re: Nazism.

He basically dabbled in Holocaust denialism, stating, among other things: "...this foolishness about Hitler disarming MILLIONS of Jews and then marching them off to concentration camps is a bunch of hogwash."

Trump sure as hell can't say that.

A few months ago, in the midst of the national fervor over President Biden’s debate performance, I was in a pretty terrible mood listening to it all and decided to take a long walk through D.C.

I put on some sunscreen, popped in my earbuds with a good playlist, and took a stroll around town, about an hour later finding myself on a residential street.
As I was wandering down the sidewalk, I saw a cyclist approaching from the opposite direction pretty fast and carrying a 7/11 Big Gulp in one hand, his other paw on the handle bar.

All of us kids were sleeping in my mother’s room when the gunshot went off. The three of us who weren’t holding a gun woke up almost immediately. My mother, improbably, slept through it.

I sat up, obviously startled and a bit foggy, and saw my younger stepbrother, almost four at the time and barely over three feet tall, standing next to me and facing the bedroom window.
He was holding a small revolver, a faint trace of smoke billowing from it. I turned in the direction of the window, and there, in the early morning light, was a bullet hole in the center of the glass and a spider web of cracks extending in each direction.

Tell me if you’ve heard this one before.

A Navy SEAL, a doctor, and an astronaut walk into a bar.

They’re all the same guy.

Last week, NASA announced that 40 year-old U.S. Navy Lieutenant Commander Jonathan “Jonny” Yong Kim will deploy to the International Space Station in March onboard the Roscosmos Soyuz MS-27 with cosmonauts Sergey Ryzhikov and Alexey Zubritsky for eight months.
It’s the latest extraordinary chapter in the life of Mr. Kim, who previously served as an enlisted Navy SEAL early in the Global War on Terrorism before completing undergrad, whilst earning an officer commission, and subsequently graduating from Harvard Medical School.

I’ve had a nagging feeling over the past several years that there’s an important aspect to evangelical church culture in the United States that’s been consistently overlooked, or simply unknown to most of the public.

(long thread)
I was a senior in high school when I became a Christian, and while I was certainly primarily motivated by Christ’s teachings, there was another factor that played an enormous role in keeping me going to church: the warmth of community.
My family had been fractured and fraught all throughout childhood, so when I was invited by a friend to her church service, I was taken aback by the easy embrace of belonging there. I say that in the general sense. Being queer was not-so-welcome. More on that in a second.
