What ticks my off is that I have the stupid Safeway card and the stupid Kroger card. But now there's more deals, better deals if I do a digital coupon requiring the app on my phone, too. It's not enough to know about all the regular items in my home, from celery to toilet paper, but they also must need to hoover up all my digital into as well? Dude, just buy it from Meta or whichever jerks have it all. Half-price grapes ain't the right price.

I probably could, I was just feeling a bit ornery. Hope you're having a good one out there!
In case anyone wants to see the post. It's not an organization that only liberal Lutherans supported either. LCMS (the larger conservative branch) supported this organization for years, too.
that don't believe in sky daddy the right way?
Fair warning to everyone, it's an older doc (2006ish), but very worth watching. And I liked, later, going and watching the movies that it uses as examples to talk about issues. I'm especially thinking of "But I'm a Cheerleader", but there are lots.
As has been well documented time and again, Texas textbooks are not neutral sources of information (podcast for anyone interested). Taking real books out of the library, controlling the content of textbooks, getting rid of Internet access specifically because it could introduce thought to children... Home of the free, my friends. Free speech absolutism.
Propublica also posts their content on BlueSky, if you find that any more palatable
Is it worth calling/emailing them to demand a refund? Especially if you were there for any specific journalists that are leaving? I think it would be very reasonable for WaPo to have to hear from its subscribers about these changes.
Think you're still missing the point that he was one of the least harmful (on a presidential scale), most genuine good people we've had as president in a looooong while. Maybe ever.
Not a gambler, I don't think that money would feel right anyhow. There's nothing about a trump presidency that should feel like a win.
And yeah, I grew up hearing sermons about how women should never be in positions of power over men. And then there's also the deep and abiding racism that's been with us longer than the idea of democracy. I hoped enough people would see the bigger picture. But no, missed out on my chance to be rich I guess.

Thanks, conservative Christians, for decades of public instruction in abstinence only, for cultural supremacy of purity culture (I'm thinking specifically of the early 90s/00s where churches were all teaching the same curriculum and so many of the hottest celebrities all said they were waiting for marriage).
Knowing nothing about how relationships should work, how to navigate emotional problems effectively, or what red flags to look out for has sure made relationships and communities stronger, all across the country.
