"Satan tempted man to trust his own natural reason and reject supernatural revelation from the mouth of God. God gave them special revelation: "Don't eat." Satan countered, "Don't believe what God says. Trust your reason!"

California Government: We're gonna import a bunch of the most flammable trees known to man.

California Government: Also we forbid the clearing of dry brush and undergrowth.

California Government: Also we forbid the cutting of firebreaks.

California Government: Also we're enforcing strict water rationing.

California Government: Well maybe your home wouldn't have burned down in that forest fire if you'd done more to fight climate change.

haven’t gotten a single quiet moment at work this week and it is turning me evil

Personally I don’t know how anyone reads any Greek myths, particularly the Iliad and comes to the conclusion “the gods are good and worthy of my love and worship.” Seems counter intuitive. I don’t even think the Greeks liked doing that, it was more like lip service to a crime boss. They just didn’t want their gyro stands burnt down.

Ayoo just to preempt the inevitable dumb takes we’re about to start seeing;

I am PRO-WOOL

I am PRO-LEATHER

I am PRO-BEES

Fuck the idea of replacing durable, sustainable animal products with cheap, flimsy plastic that doesn’t bio-degrade. Agave nectar and other artificial sweeteners are expensive, labor-intensive, and destroy the environment to be farmed.

Do not buy into pernicious marketing campaigns pushed by dickhead organizations trying to stay relevant, like PETA.

I buy my "lunch" in bulk at the start of the week (in quotes because it's just crisps and chocolate, I'm an anti-lunch activist) and this time I bought a new twix product to try but they're not very good. Anyway I'm stuck with them now because I'm not gonna go out and buy something else just for the sake of it. 2025 is already off to a bad start if I'm being real for a sec.

“If you are lost, it is not because you could not be saved. If you are lost, it is not because there was no pardon for sinners, no Mediator, no High Priest, no fountain open for sin and for uncleanness, no open door. It is because you would have your own way, because you would cleave to your sins, because you would not come to Christ.”
