Here we go again…threats of catastrophic death and destruction by the right.

“What kind of person can charge another person, in this case a former President of the United States, who got more votes than any sitting President in history, and leading candidate (by far!) for the Republican Party nomination, with a Crime, when it is known by all that NO Crime has been committed, & also known that potential death & destruction in such a false charge could be catastrophic for our Country? Why & who would do such a thing? Only a degenerate psychopath that truely hates the USA!“ Truth Social

Stand by gangs, Armageddon is coming and you can be part of it. Just send in the the end label from your ammunition boxes, along with $50 and get an official certificate for death and destruction…and a decoder ring.

Population control, the DeSantis formula.

Two different opinion pieces from Amanda Marcotte that absolutely back up what I have been saying about the term “woke” for a couple of weeks now.

“Salon is blabbering left wing (ie, WOKE) ideology on a platter”. Don’t care. Hold yourself up to the mirror she provides and tell me I am wrong and PROVE it. All you will end up doing is showing the world that she and I have it right.

Is Michelangelo’s David Circumcised?

Some say Yes; some say No. I say Yes, albeit with zero authority in the matter. At least one actual authority says No, but only assertively.

The answer is somewhat significant to an interpretation of the work. Remember that Michelangelo’s David is the Biblical David, and the moment the statue depicts corresponds to a precise moment in the Biblical story, the moment just after David has removed the armor his father Saul had given him and just prior to engaging Goliath for the fight.
