Today's the day: I'm going off-grid until October 21st. No phone, no Internet, no checking the news at all If there's something I ought to read about upon my return, feel free to drop a link in the comments to document the horrors (if you want, I'm not the boss of you)

I grew up steeped in these mythologies and it's truly terrifying that the people who believe this shit run the most powerful military on earth. It still really hasn't sunk in for most normies how scary these people are so I'm thankful for every report like this here:

Brought to mind @swordsjew.bsky.social’s caution in the intro to Wild Faith that - if you don’t know people who believe this - it takes work to accept that they mean it literally

After being exposed in my teens and early 20’s to the kind of thinking that crystallized as the New Apostolic Reformation, I was grateful to get away from those people and have them be out of sight and mind for the next few decades Alas, they are in a position to inform national policy. This is bad

I’ve thought about this for a while. As a believer, I believe that anyone thinking they can speed up the end of the world is a heretic and an idolater who thinks God is a genie, and they demand their damn wishes. And they make life a miserable existence for everyone else.

"Intercession" is "prayer for the sake of someone else and for the kingdom of God, and it cannot be 'wimpy'—intercessors do not ask politely or take no for an answer. 'You collide with God violently until His will is released on the earth,' the website explains."

“Those who study and write about the New Apostolic Reformation and other Christian dominionist movements mention how difficult it is to get anyone to take these movements seriously.” Even though they are an important part of American collapse. Laura Jedeed’s beat.

Donald J. Trump & C
@realDonald Trump
At the strong request of the United States Military, and for National Security purposes, I have agreed to convert the magnificent Triumphal Arch, planned since the Civil War Era many years ago, at the Receptive Circle adjoining the Arlington Memorial Bridge, into a top grade Military Complex/Triumphal Arch, to house, store, and have the rapid ability to use large numbers of drones, plus Snipers, on both the roof and plaza areas, and additionally have and hold large quantities of sniper ammunition in storage. There will be no facility like this anywhere in the World.
Out of the 59 top cities and Capitals, Washington, D.C., IS THE ONLY ONE IN THE WORLD THAT DOES NOT HAVE A TRIUMPHAL ARCH, but it will now and, by far, the greatest of them all! Thank you for your attention to this matter. President DONALD J. TRUMP

The accounting is in: In Oregon there are 111 data centers. The TOTAL number of people employed at data centers is just 2,630, or 0.1% of the labor force. Those 100 data centers consumer 23% of all electricity used in Oregon. Meanwhile, electricity rates skyrocket as more centers are built.

opb.org

Oregon data centers by the numbers: 111 facilities consume nearly one-quarter of state’s power, according to new report

A first-of-its-kind report details the footprint of the controversial facilities.

The Anthropic, Meta, and Google "breaking containment" incidents all resulted from setup errors (or a stunt) by the same company: Irregular. Irregular created a sandbox that wasn't really a sandbox because it had a live internet connection, and gave instructions that were then carried out online.

Or, you know, the tech bros will donate money to Trump so he can pretend to build a military base on Greenland and then the taxpayers will end up paying anyway Or Trump is just completely full of shit It's so fun not knowing. Love this for us

If I'm reading this right, Trump would like us to believe that Denmark will allow us to decide how to spend their money on Greenland's security, up to and including military base construction

If you run to the right, you don't add voters. You lose them because your voters (RIGHTLY) think you've abandoned them won't vote for you. And the voters to the right you're trying to court - guess what you still aren't right enough for them. And the undecideds see a coward & won't vote for one.

100% this. AI is toxic and evil, it degrades and corrodes everything it comes in contact with morally, intellectually, aesthetically. It doesn't have a brain or personality or will. Everything that's bad about it is 1:1 the way it was designed by the vile shitfucks who think it's god.

I think it's good to keep getting mad about evil and unjust things, if only to remind yourself and everyone else that these things are in fact evil and unjust. I don't think it's naive. Nor is it wise and sophisticated to adopt a "You fool, nothing matters and nothing good can ever happen" posture

I know this is a take that gets some people itchy (though I assume everyone like this has me blocked), but everyone who talks about the nefarious influence of Jews generally and also occasionally Zionism specifically and buttons on a note about Palestinians, caring about the latter is always a lie.
