China has as many climates as the US! This is stupid!

ABBOTT: Gina Hinojosa supports Sharia Law
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Gina Hinojosa does not support Sharia Law and has publicly identified as Catholic. As a member of the Catholic faith, she follows the doctrines of the Catholic Church, which are incompatible with Islamic religious law (Sharia). newyorker.com/news/the-new-y…

Blaming others for his own stupid decision. How Christian of him.
NEW: Archbishop Jeffrey Grob of Milwaukee apologized on Sunday for praying over President Trump in the Oval Office last week, and he accused the White House of posting video of the prayer without the bishops’ consent. Writing to Catholics from the Dominican Republic, he said the administration had manipulated “something so sacred” into a political photo opportunity twelve days before the midterms. thelettersfromleo.com/p/arch…

This happens a lot…
This is like the craziest thing I’ve ever seen Everyone turned out to vote for Abbott but they left it blank for Paxton or voted for Talarico? That is not how most voting humans operate

“it's efficiency-improving to make the guest the residual claimant on garbage” is definitely a brand new sentence
I think having AirBnB guests clean up their own garbage does solve a moral hazard problem. The cost of reducing garbage is plausibly much lower than the cost of cleaning up garbage, so it's efficiency-improving to make the guest the residual claimant on garbage

Based pope
In January, a senior Pentagon official summoned Pope Leo XIV’s ambassador and lectured him on American military power. Then someone in the room invoked the Avignon Papacy, when the French Crown used force to bend a pope to its will. Vatican officials read it as a threat. The pope has not given an inch since. thelettersfromleo.com/p/the-…

How on earth does one have the balls to say “southeast US is like China.” Do you have any idea how big China is? It’s the same as the US! India has part of the Himalayas ffs

We really are in the dumbest timeline.
99.9% of the U.S. would consider The Cheesecake Factory to be high class dining. Only an elitist like Barack Obama would invoke the Factory— home of delicious cuisine— to ridicule someone.

I looked them up and they appear to be at the Pima Animal Care Center (PACC) in Tucson, Arizona. If you adopt both of these dogs together — or any animal from this center — I will pay for a month's worth of pet food and help you find a good pair of pants. 24petconnect.com/PimaAdoptab…

While my daughter was at choir practice I arranged for her friend’s parent to pick them both up so they could play and have a wonderful time together. When she got home I told her she was grounded and she needed to retake my stranger danger course.

Hi Mr Rubio. Can you please DM me? I’d like to create a discrete partnership with the CIA but don’t know how to proceed. Thanks.
To those who seek to create positive change in Cuba - now is the time. The disappointment of failed promises, corruption, and the privileged lives of only a few; seize this opportunity to create the change you desire through a discrete partnership with the CIA.

What this really means is “I don’t want to see non straight people in public.” This is about one’s sexual preferences. Trump walking around with Melania doesn’t bother anyone. But “keep it private” here implies “hide who you love away for nobody to see.” It’s stupid.
My contrary take is that I respect Lindsey Graham more, not less, for not “living his truth” in a public way that required all of society to clap for him. Dude kept his private life private, it was none of our business. The right for the most part actually lives by the left’s false claim to not care what people do in their literal bedrooms. I only care if a guy makes it my problem and parade in assless chaps down Main St. in front of the kids.

Sad news today. After 5 years of medical training, one of my mates has been struck off due to a minor discretion. He slept with one of his patients and can no longer do the job he loves. What a waste of time and money. Genuinely a great guy and a brilliant vet
