Boomers: "Kids nowadays dress so gay, what happened to real men like John Wayne?"
John Wayne:
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Why is it called a runway when what's done on them is everything except running?

The term ‘non-fungible’ seems like it should mean ‘unable to be transformed into a mushroom’.

...as opposed to "unable to be returned into cash". When I asked my stockbroker about bitcoin, he told me that it wasn't something he could invest in; don't remember why. I'm fine with that response, and seeing the results of NFT investments, I'm more than pleased.

All this far right concern regarding molestation issues, yet the churches aren't being shut down.

Rickrolling has made me more wary of random links than any cyber security warning ever could.

I only log in once in a while to look at the thread concerning our high school reunions. I made it to the 20th and the 50th. A lot of my classmates are dead. Freaky.

I have become addicted to 'reels' on FB. I also log in because of a few pages I follow and I keep up with birthdays there too. I don't post much any more.
