Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 14/05/2025Most of the Time it's more like Ballad of a Thin Man to me 010
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 05/05/2025No, let's put it in context. The committee believes Trump incited the U.S. Capitol attack, but notes he was impeached on that charge already. The report specifically concludes there is enough evidence to convict, and, therefore, charge him with “assisting, aiding or comforting” the insurrection. 021
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 05/05/2025I am agnostic to the question of what they mean by god 000
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 05/05/2025I don't know that there are different forms of belief. Faith is something different from belief. 100
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 03/05/2025There is an assumption that atheists don't believe in anything. That's ultimate condescention and hubris, as though the only thing to believe in is something that even St. Anselm and Thomas Aquaintas didn't agree on, much less Martin Luther and Boniface VIII. 120
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 03/05/2025When someone asks me if I believe in god, I say that I am agnostic as to the question. 110
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 02/05/2025He was clearly a messed up guy, but that doesn't change the quality of his discussions on religion. The two can be separated. I can provide great and beautiful quotations from Ezra Pound (and with delight), but he was still a flaming fascist. 140
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 02/05/2025Better read it before the administration takes it down www.epa.gov/greenvehicle...epa.govElectric Vehicle Myths | US EPAFacts and myths about electric vehicles. 110
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 02/05/2025Anything coming from this administration should first be considered a complete lie until it can proven otherwise with actual facts and documentation 000
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 02/05/2025That's just not true. That depends on the electricity used and how long the vehicle is used. 330
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 02/05/2025Poor Elise Stefanik. None of her moral shortcomings could impress the guy in clown makeup enough to get her a swanky NYC penthouse. 010
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 02/05/2025But are the raw materials of twinkies and ho-hos made in the US? 000
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 02/05/2025Caring about logical contradictions hasn't been a republican trait since about 1865 000
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 01/05/2025More importantly, Frank Zappa released One Size Fits All 50 years ago 020
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 01/05/2025Don't do it, Bob. Don't sing her any freaking love songs! 020
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 01/05/2025I've listened to Dylan for 50 years and never waited for this 160
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 01/05/2025But the Chinese kids will have it worse, so it's all worth it 000
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 29/04/2025Wait, what are they doing to bring "critical supply chains here at home"? Are they taking credit for the CHIPS Act the way they took credit for reducing insulin costs? 010
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 29/04/2025Looking at it another way, 34% think it's ok to send US citizens to foreign prisons. With about 262M citizens at voting age, that is roughly 89M people. 020
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 27/04/2025We would save $83B per year instead of giving texas $77B 040
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 22/04/2025My 15 year old son asked if he should read the Wilson or Fagels translation. After regaining my compusure from the shock of being asked that question, I told him Wilson. I like Fagles though. 170
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 03/04/2025Oh yes. There is always a rationalization to make the madness 010
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 03/04/2025Think about how competitive it would be if all the trans boys started competing against girls instead. 140
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 02/04/2025A run on goods from hysteria will jack up the prices even earlier. 000
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 02/04/2025Oh I didn't realize that your comment was serious enough, since all you mentioned were pronouns (one word). I just figured you really didn't care about language, which you obviously do not. But for whatever reason, you don't like other people referring to themselves in pronouns that fit them. 000
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 01/04/2025I am surprised that someone whose grammar and spelling is so bad would be so focused on pronouns. 200
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 30/03/2025First Amendment applies to foreigners, or non-citizens, who are lawfully present in the United States, including those who are not citizens, as the Constitution protects all persons within its jurisdiction, not just citizens 121
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 12/02/2025Hospitals are afraid that they will lose their federal funding, which is why CHLA and others have suspended treatment. It's a terrible time for medical providers to turn their backs on trans patients. But losing funding will impact their ability to treat other patients. Fascism is alive in the 🇺🇸 000
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 02/02/2025What is the "this" that they didn't see coming in the first place? Misogyny, racism, fear mongering, tariffs, fascism, anti-science, etc.? Why did they support a convicted fraudster and adjucicated rapist who, while leaving office with an economy in a tailspin, tried to overthrow the government? 000
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 31/01/2025We don't have to exaggerate. The actual crimes he was charged with are bad enough: Lewd and lascivious molestation of a child under the age of 12. Leave the misinformation for the fascists. 000
Eric @mrhecatombstyrax.bsky.social · 19/11/2024It was Robert Jones Jr who said that on the site formerly known as twitter. It's a good line, but now I have to block you because I hate being mislead. 110
