I've used it a lot – and I think about it a lot. My undergrad and grad work was in religious studies. 👍

The first time I've seen the word "ontological" since university. And Leo is spot on.

Millions of taxpayer dollars are out the window, down the drain, in the bin. America's non-military sphere of influence is crippled. #VOA #MAGAnomics

The baffled people whose job it is to administer the pentobarbital (and who are unprepared to do it), the person who controls the curtains, the sad eye-for-an-eye poster. The banality of it. This has to be straining the national conscience.

Every New Yorker (including 47) knows Washington Square arch. It was built in 1892. 🤔 In 1917, Dadaist artist Marcel Duchamp and his friends sneaked up to the roof of the arch, shot off toy pistols, and declared Greenwich Village an independent republic. 😄

By rejecting the Rome Statute, *every* US administration since the founding of the ICC has said, in effect, that war crimes are expedient, and justice is an existential threat. Many Americans believe the opposite. Too few American lawmakers will take the issue on.

Donald Trump is a convicted criminal. His administration is a criminal organization. Of course he is trying to shut down the International Criminal Court.

Traditional interdictions would do the job, they'd produce evidence, they'd eliminate gratuitous violence, and they'd be legal. The UN is alive and well.

The shot-for-shot steals from an infamous 1935 docuganda film speak for themselves. Out of respect for humanity, I won't name the film. But Pete Hegseth can't be impeached soon enough. His media team must go, too. x.com/secwar/statu...

From seam to shiny seam, it's a sartorial disaster. Hegseth's 2017 stretch mini suits and Yankee doodle accessories are standouts. And Trump's Leonid Brezhnev-inspired tents and crotch grazing ties are hard to look at. Just ick. And the rest of the executive branch is, well, blue.
