The Bible is two parts:
"This is the model for how you live a good life, follow it or else. Here's a bunch of stories of people who did and did not follow this advice and what happened to them. Even here you can somewhat negotiate with God as Lot did in Soddom and Gamora. He also shows grace as with Israel's many failures, but such grace isn't as explicit as the second part."
And
"But God doesn't hate you, God loves you, so let's discuss how He understands you are a fallible human living in a broken world so He will show grace when you falter so long as you know you screwed up and you feel legitimately bad for it, but that by no means suggests you ought to accept or embrace sin. By the way, don't be like these assholes who focus on rule lawyering over being a good person. In the same way the first part demonstrates Grace, this part still demands one follow God's laws."
No part of the Bible is the hippy trippy boomer story about how you can do whatever you want whenever you want.
As with any matter theological, I have to point out that I'm not an authority and just a retard on the internet trying to make some sense out of the world and the long arc of human history.

The far left is always amusing.
1. They oppose "cultural imperialism" yet strive to impose their values on a foreign culture, in this case Japan. If you're going to impose your values on a foreign culture, why not really get in there and help make Afghanistan woke again?
They have a moral certitude that their ideology is the true and correct one and so spreading it is justified, but given that their ideology is based on postmodernism, it's a broken certitude -- If you are going to reject grand narratives and deconstruct their elements, why should that result in a new grand narrative? The answer is that it shouldn't, and orthodox progressivism as I've defined wokeness as in depth is built on a paradox that can't be solved.
2. They oppose "cultural appropriation" yet strive to appropriate light novels, manga, and anime to carry their woke message. If you're going to appropriate culture, why not choose something totally alien to the west, like making Mongolian throat singing woke? If you think about it, it's a lot more on brand.
Incidentally, some people sound like they're Mongolian throat singing when they burp, but I'm not opposed to a little cultural appropriation as long as it's in good fun!

Randomly, got stung by a wasp near my shed a couple years ago. This year I discovered the largest wasps nest I've ever seen I(about the size of a volley ball) in a hidden corner of the shed. Dead now, but it explains a lot.
This isn't how it's done in other countries. My kid is 3 and I think he had just your very basic shots, like 5 or so, and some of them were the same one multiple times. Not an unreasonable number like 32!
Considering that all the predictions about the unvaccinated were totally wrong, it definitely seems fishy.
Trump made a lot of mistakes his first term, I hope he's learned better this time around.

Great video as always by speech analyst Martin DeCoder.
One thing from Oprah's speech, she goes "what did you do to vote?" And the girl goes "I woke up at 7am" and Oprah goes "woooooow"
7am isn't woooooow, 5am is woooooow. 7am is the normal time a lot of people get up on the weekend without an alarm clock.
And if it was 4am, I'd be a little scared. Like, ain't nobody stopping you from voting come hell or high water!!

The climate changing can be a big deal -- one of the factors of the bronze age collapse was a change in climate that slowly made Mesopotamia stop being prime farmland and start being desert. A similar change in climate made northern Europe inhabitable for the first time, especially by farming civilizations.
Problem is none of this is based on reality, it's all histrionics to try to make people ignore the fact that their quality of life has been getting to a point that's so bad they're going to be the end of their genetic lines by focusing on some big political/environmental issues instead of the corrupt governments working together to hurt the common man.

Whether people like it or not, the fact that you're "allowed" to have one opinion and you'll be rewarded, and you're "not allowed" to have other opinions and your career and life will be destroyed means you're definitionally not doing science.
In proper science, the final arbiter of truth is reality. If you're acting as if the final arbiter is the state, you're doing propaganda, and if the final arbiter is some group of moral busibodies then you're doing theology.
Don't get me wrong, sometimes propaganda or theology can be noble pursuits, but what they aren't is science.

It has nothing to do with the presidency and everything to do with being a father.
Being the sort of father who did this was what led to having to be the sort of father who did this. He's not choosing family, he's signing his remaining son's death warrant as he no doubt has a thousand times before in other situations where there were a chance of consequences occurring.

I can't imagine he hates his VP enough to make her president for a month and a half after embarrassingly losing the election to someone she called a fascist and whose media allies were all calling Hitler.
It's just too embarrassing for everyone involved.

Seeing the Reichfuhrer Trudeau folding is fantastic. I just hope the voters remember what he did when Trump wasn't putting a boot to his neck.
Uglymug Epicfighter effortpost with some minor spoilers
So I do need to point out that I'm putting what feels like entirely too much thought into a work called "uglymug epicfighter" about a big fat ugly guy who is really strong, which has been characterized as "reddit moderator isekai". But hey, I enjoy effortposting so here we are.
All caught up on uglymug epicfighter and it really isn't "reddit moderator isekai" as people joked. It's more like a traditional ugly duckling morality tale about people's true beauty being from within. Some of the plot twists remind me of "no exit" by Sartre (which is a strange connection to make for a kids manga)
The main characters were all connected in their previous lives, and many of them were either the victims of or the perpetrators of a great sin against someone else.
Of course, being an isekai from a modern (and I have to stress not postmodern) civilization, rather than being a depressing story about how there is no value meaning or sense in the universe, it's not flipping story about how good people working together can make anywhere into a paradise.
The main character looks at first like the stereotypical Reddit mod, being really fat and really ugly, but ends up taking on the countenance more like a warrior Monk, stotic and strong. In spite of the physical ugliness, the virtue of the character also feels different when you see them. You know when they're on the page that he's going to do the right thing.
One of the core themes of the work is that strength comes through sacrifice. The main character looks are not by accident, he chose to look that way in order to gain additional skill points. Besides that, there are things that can be written in a free form box at the beginning of the story where you can trade something for power, for example being unable to lie or unable to betray others.
The core tension of the story, given that the main character is someone whose class is literally "Absolute God" and so combat is only tense when another absolute God is in combat, is information asymmetry. Who was everyone prior to being brought to another world? What do they want to do now? What are their powers? What limitations and extraordinary powers did they give themselves and why? Given absolute power, it can only be exercised once the situation is known.
It's getting an anime soon, and hopefully it'll be as good or better than the manga I read.

Next upgrade for the FBXL network is ordered, a couple machines with embedded Ryzen APUs, totally fanless (I'm not about to start having fans now).
If my son required 10 years of blanket immunity for any and all federal crimes he committed or may have committed, it would be my act of love to let him be indicted.
