Katherine is one of my favorite candidates on the Georgia ballot this year. We’ve had numerous conversations — both public and private conversations — and she knows what she’s talking about. So much so that Rick Jackson is stealing plans she’s been laying out since the primaries.

Billionaires don’t give a damn about you. They will come in, blow up your shit, and go back to their comfy existence. This should be a lesson to not let them bully you. Die on your morals or die due to the morality of others. Looks like Ed made the wrong choice. apnews.com/article/ed-s...

On Thursday, Aug. 6, Porter Airlines flight
PD444 had left the terminal at Victoria International Airport (YYJ) in Canada and was heading for the runway when crew members saw a toddler "standing in their seat," Canadian news outlets CTV News and
CP24 reported. Parents and a crew member had failed to secure the toddler's seatbelt.
The plane returned to the terminal, where the family was transported off the plane.
"A young child was standing in their seat and would not secure their seatbelt," the airline said in a statement to CTV News. "The aircraft could not take off in this unsafe condition, so the crew elected to The time it took to remove the family from the plane and file paperwork delayed the flight past 12:30 a.m. local time, which is when the airport's runway closes, causing the flight to be canceled, per CTV News.

The family has not been publicly identified at this time.Chika, who famously said: “i'm so pissed off right now. i already had trouble falling asleep. and as soon as i do, you bring the consequence of YOUR sexual promiscuity into MY life.
i got noise cancellation on and i STILL woke up.

Very much my experience with hearing God. “I want to tell her to hear God You have to be willing to experience what's holy in places many people don't deem to be sacred That sometimes God sits next to you on a barstool Spilling truth to you like too many beers…”
Dirt don't scare God's ears
God is a gardener
God knows things can't grow without sun, rain,
and soil
I want to tell her to hear God
You have to be willing to experience what's holy in places many people don't deem to be sacred That sometimes God sits next to you on a barstool
Spilling truth to you like too many beers
That God knows very well the dance we'll do When we love ourselves so little that just about
anyone will do

Who gave permission to a generation, Who made origami out of hate mail, Who kept the faith, Who told the truth,
Who dared to wonder "What if I'm wrong?" out loud,
Who was willing to keep wrestling until the blessing came,
Who pulled up more chairs to the Table and
scooted over to make room,
Who made us laugh and made us think, Who was bold and courageous and kind, Who would not be budged from her conviction that this Gospel is Good News for everyone, Who moved to the margins because she knew this is the centre of God's Story,
Who never lost her love for telling that Story, Who loved us, And whom we loved.
