There is a lunar halo right now around the full moon. You should go outside and see it. Breathtaking.
I love the moon. The other night, I pointed out the moon to my son and it awoke within him an unfettered passion for that silver gleam. Now, every night before bed, he sits on my shoulders and shouts "I see the moon!" I have never been more proud.
If I had a nickel for every time Texas failed to recover an on-side kick this season, I'd have 10¢, which isn't a lot but it's weird that it happened twice.
You should be deeply skeptical of all attempts to replicate reality with the artificial. For the aim is not really to replicate reality but to confuse it at first and then ultimately replace it.
We believe voice is the most natural way to interact with intelligence, so we created Dessa, the most authentic full-duplex speech model ever built. Talking with it feels like talking with a person…full of emotion, nuance, pauses, and a natural cadence.

Mormons always want it both ways:
"We're Christians too"
"You aren't real Christians"
"We're just another Christian denomination"
"Multiple denominations proves yours isn't true"
They will take whatever position is advantageous because they are a corruption of the truth.
Paul said the Church is "built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone" (Ephesians 2:20).
He also said there is "one Lord, one faith, one baptism" (Ephesians 4:5).
Not 45,000 denominations. One.
So which church today is built on apostles and prophets, and has the authority Christ gave?
There can only be one👇🏼
Propaganda never says the quiet part out loud until they believe resistance is futile. So no, the commercial would not say "never hug your grandparents." If they wanted to abolish affection in families, it would look exactly how it does.

Let us celebrate the Feast Day of St. James of Jerusalem!
"Grant, O God, that, following the example of your apostle James the Just, kinsman of our Lord, your Church may give itself continually to prayer and to the reconciliation of all who are at variance and enmity; through Jesus Christ our Lord, who lives and reigns with you and the Holy Spirit, one God, now and for ever. Amen."
—The Book of Common Prayer
Shocking nobody, the anonymous accounts angry at my common sense have not changed my mind
Kids don't want to hug their grandparents because they think they're too cool for it.
The Left weaponizes this by promoting "consent" so that you will trust the government who gives you what you want, over your family, who loves you. It's pure manipulation.
Not all physical contact is sexual. The modern idea of consent is based on the assumption that it is. Collapsing all physical touch into something that needs consent because it is implicitly a violation of one's sexual autonomy, causes distrust in one's family for no good reason.
CS Lewis spends a lot of time in That Hideous Strength describing the motives behind the propaganda machine of the
N.I.C.E.
Boy was he dead on.
The boundaries of human nature are good. Rejecting those boundaries in favor of "possibilities" will only ever make you unhappy. This is for many reasons, but the most basic is that no matter what you try, or what you theorize, you cannot change your identity as male or female.
The modern "concent" movement implicitly teaches that all forms of physical affection are sexual, which will only make the problems they think they are solving worse.
It's also clearly aimed at fostering a deep distrust of your family so that you'll trust the government instead
Everyone begins as a child by liking Wether. You learn the art of disliking it as you grow up.

I accounced a partial ban on cheating during the test and wouldn't you know it, all of my students cheated.
Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive.

This seems well in line with Article 6 of the 39 Articles, so it is fine.
On Sunday, my church had a reading from Ecclesiasticus (Apocryphal). Instead of our typical,
"The Word of the Lord.
Thanks be to God,"
the reader ended simply with
"Here ends the reading."
We still had our Psalm, Epistle, and Gospel readings.
Do you find this is acceptable? Why or why not? Comment below. 👇🏻
This is the worst stat you will read all year. The second worst is the stat about how many mothers have killed their children since the Lindsay Clancy trial.
Psalm 82:4 Rescue the weak and the needy; deliver them from the hand of the wicked.
