The Holy Month of Pride.
The U.S. Embassy to the Holy See has again flown a Pride Flag, as President Joe Biden reiterated his commitment to supporting LGBT advocacy.
 “The United States respects and promotes the equality and human dignity of all people including the LGBTQIA+ community,” the U.S. embassy to the Vatican said on Twitter."

Douglas Murray is a best-selling author and award winning political and social commentator. He was raised in a Christian home but his belief in God waned over time eventually disappearing in his late twenties. He continues to embrace the positive influence that Christianity, specifically the teachings of Jesus, has had on Western culture but does so without all the divine baggage. He finds himself adopting the odd designation of “Christian atheist.”  He is also gay.

The smartest Jew in History said:
 “The word 'God' is for me nothing more than the expression and product of human weaknesses, the Bible a collection of honorable, but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish. No interpretation, no matter how subtle, can (for me) change this.”

Yes, one of the more unsettling discoveries in the past half a century is that the universe is not locally real. In this context, “real” means that objects have definite properties independent of observation—an apple can be red even when no one is looking. “Local” means that objects can be influenced only by their surroundings and that any influence cannot travel faster than light. Investigations at the frontiers of quantum physics have found that these things cannot both be true. Instead the evidence shows that objects are not influenced solely by their surroundings, and they may also lack definite properties prior to measurement.

It wouldn’t be the first time that McCarthy has been speculated to have been dipping his pen in the government ink, so to speak, as in 2015 McCarthy was pressured into withdrawing from the Speaker race after rumors of an affair with Renee Ellmers (R-NC), who bears a striking resemblance to MTG.

Democrats INSANITY Is Driving Away Young People
In a study taken by the Harvard Kennedy School Institute of Politics of over 2,500 young Americans aged 18-29, researchers found that 61% of participants believed that the government should be doing more to curb climate change, even at the expense of economic growth. 64% believed basic health insurance is a right for all people and the government should provide it if one has no means to pay. And there was even a sharp increase of 19 percentage points from 5 years ago showing agreement among young people that qualified minorities should be given special preferences in hiring and education. The study also found that 68% of young voters in the study agree with the statement: “Elected officials seem to be motivated by selfish reasons.” 76% of youth, including 83% of Democrats and 70% of Republicans, agree that there needs to be more open-mindedness in politics.

ebuc just doesn't want H L Mencken's prediction to become true again.

"As democracy is perfected, the office of the President represents, more and more closely, the inner soul of the people. On some great and glorious day, the plain folks of the land will reach their heart's desire at last, and the White House will be occupied by a downright fool and a complete narcissistic moron."

Maybe he is talking about this: Delta Air Lines pilots agreed to a new contract, giving pilots a hefty 34% pay increase over three years. Roughly 78% of Delta’s 15,000 pilots, represented by the Air Line Pilots Association (ALPA), voted to ratify the new contract, which includes over $7 billion in cumulative increases through December 2026.

@John_C_87
According to the fourth law of motion, where each motion need to have it’s own impact, the causes of motion of our galaxy as well as other galaxies could be easily found. For that, we need to know the Chain Bang Theory which was presented by the author in 2012 as an alternative to the Big Bang Theory.Chain Bang Theory states that a chain of explosion on a rotating neutron sphere causes to form a galaxy and for each galaxy, each neutron sphere explosion is inevitable.The neutron sphere explosion theory was presented by George Lamaitre. This theory has two drawbacks. One is that the motionless neutron sphere explosion and next is that the neutron sphere explosion creating a massive universe. If the universe was created by an explosion of a motionless neutron sphere, then the bodies from that explosion would have been moving in a straight line on six directions, and the distance between them would have been gradually increasing over time. But the universe does not exist in such a way.Next, by observing the position and motion of the current galaxies, it can be inferred that the Universe was not created from a single explosion, as they exist and moves in different ways. Moreover, it is now discovered that there are Multiverse. Thereby invalidating the Big Bang Theory.

Interesting, I see what you are saying. Newton’s and Einstein’s ideas about the gravity could be found false under the fourth law of motion.

  1. Newton did not state his fourth law of motion. He has never mentioned this law. People assumed this law.
  2. Some people think that the law of universal gravitation is Newton’s fourth law. But again, Newton did not mention this during the statement of this law or at any time. People renamed the gravitation law as the fourth law of Newton on the basis of counting the number of laws given by sir Isaac Newton. So, Newton’s law of gravitation is not Newton’s fourth law of motion.
  3. It is better to accept that there are only three laws of motion and the law of universal gravitation is different from those. Newton’s second law of motion is applied in the law of gravitation during calculating the gravitational force between two objects.
  4. All the vector addition of force acting on a system are examples of Newton’s fourth law
What is the two decimal number you are talking about?

Texas Republicans are preparing to cheat in the next election
Thomas Hicks, commissioner of the independent and bipartisan U.S. Election Assistance Commission (EAC) ( here ) ( www.eac.gov/about-the-useac ) said that the “actual incidence of voter fraud is relatively small and for the most part is unintentional.”
For example, after the 2020 election, a months’-long analysis by the AP found fewer than 475 cases of potential voter fraud in the six battleground states challenged by Trump (here). For context, there were over 3.3 million votes casted for the presidential run in Arizona alone, the state AP found had the highest number of potential fraud cases (198) ( here ). The AP also found no signs of a coordinated effort and reported that “virtually every case was based on an individual acting alone to cast additional ballots.”
Studies compiled by the Brennan Center ( here ) ( here ), which reviewed cases of voter fraud (prior to the 2020 general election), also found voter fraud is rare.
As another example, an analysis by Justin Levitt, a professor at Loyola Law School and currently a White House Senior Policy Advisor for Democracy and Voting Rights ( here ) found 31 credible cases of voter impersonation between 2000 and 2014, out of a billion ballots ( here ).

Sorry again. I should have said 60 to 80. After Donald Trump was elected President, a group of researchers at the Pentagon set into motion a study unlike any other – they wanted to find out the average IQ of a group that would elect such an unqualified person into office.
Working with over 10,000 confirmed Trump voters and 10,000 confirmed non-Trump voters, researchers gave standardized intelligence quotient tests to each group. There was no time limit to complete the test, and it was given twice over a week-long period.
“The results of the testing, while not at all surprising, prove that Trump voters are drastically behind liberals and non-Trump voters on an intellectual basis,” said Dr. Carl Brewner, who headed the study. “The test was 200 questions, and each completed test gave us an average IQ score based on answers. On average, a Trump voter would score in the 30th percentile, or have an average intelligence level of about 71, far below the 90 to 110 that is considered ‘normal.’ A non-Trump voter would score an average of approximately 96.”

Yes, those red states weren't creating jobs faster. They were just hiring more often because folks were bouncing around more. Red states don't have more layoffs or job openings than blue ones, they just have more quits and hires.  Even within industries and companies, employers pay different wages across states, depending on what they can get away with. One thing red states tend to have in common is that they are right-to-work states, have lower rates of unionization and have lower wages with no state minimum wage. And, of course, workers in red states tend to earn less than their blue-state peers . Analysis showed workers from low-income families face higher turnover in red states, even as folks from higher-income families actually had more job security in those same places.
The disparity seems rooted in education. The job-turnover gap between Trump and Biden states yawns widest among those with the least education. It closes as worker education rises and completely flips for workers with the highest education:
To recap Biden states are smart states and Trump states are stupid states. Is there a Harvard or MIT in a Trump state?

Ok,ok, Michael Cohen told Vanity Fair that Trump frequently used racist language in private before he became president. In one example, Cohen recalls telling Trump ahead of the 2016 election that the crowd at one of his rallies was almost entirely white. "That’s because black people are too stupid to vote for me," Trump reportedly responded. In another instance, Cohen claims Trump, after the 2013 death of Nelson Mandela, said, "Name one country run by a black person that’s not a sh-thole. Name one city."

Nearly 43 million Americans receive Food Stamps. Republicans think they are lazy
-->
@IwantRooseveltagain
Well, the Chapter 5 Conclusion of the study says:
Overall, the findings from this study indicate that SNAP households and non-SNAP households purchased similar foods in the retail outlets in these data. The findings hold true after assessing food expenditure patterns of SNAP and non-SNAP households using multiple categorization methods. Both groups of households spent about 40 cents of every dollar of food expenditures on basic items such as meat, fruits, vegetables, milk, eggs, and bread. Another 20 cents out of every dollar was spent on sweetened beverages, desserts, salty snacks, candy and sugar. The remaining 40 cents were spent on a variety of items such as cereal, prepared foods, dairy products, rice, and beans.

Consent and Antinatalism
-->
@zedvictor4
Antinatalist sentiments, in fact, can be found throughout history, and they even appear throughout Scripture. Both Jeremiah and Job curse the day they were born, and the author of Ecclesiastes—when considering the eternal fact of humans oppressing other humans—judges that the one who is never born to see such things is better off than both the oppressor and the oppressed (4:3). The novelty of antinatalism, therefore, lies not in the feelings and ideas it expresses but in its more recent philosophical expansion (as in the work of David Benatar) and its growth as a movement.

From your reference: The top 25 SoFAS subcommodities by expenditure for SNAP households are shown in Exhibit 13. Twenty two subcommodities in the top 25 for SNAP households were also among the top 25 for non-SNAP households. In addition, the top two subcommodities were the same. They were carbonated soft drinks packaged as 12-18 pack cans and 2-liter bottles. These two subcommodities represented approximately one-fourth of the SoFAS expenditures for both types of households.
