Reiterating: Against what's happening, but I also feel a proper understanding of the context is needed.

If the punishment is "put to death", then that logically means "murder" must be the word proscribed.

On your side, but technically, the Hebrew text uses the word that better means "unlawful" killing rather than killing in general. A better translation is "Thou shalt not commit murder."

More like I'd never trust a Repugnantcan't. Repugnant, and can't do anything useful. (Credit for the original, "Repugnantcan", to rjw72 .bsky.social; not @-ing since this is otherwise unrelated.)

And yet, there are people who will still vote for his party.

The United States has a rape-y White House, a rape-y Cabinet, a rape-y US Supreme Court. If someone supports Trump/MAGA, they are pro-rape & pro-child-rape. That is fact, that is Truth.

If it helps, you can think of primary and election as a free-for-all tournament bracket: first you find the strongest of your guys, then you send them to the finals vs the other groups.

Senate is 2 per state, so that all states have equal representation. The House is population based so that all people get near-equal representation. It functions (sort of) by requiring both groups to agree.

Just realized I didn't explain the core question: to "primary" someone is to get let else in the party to run, instead of them. It's knocking them out in the first round of elections, out of two.

Naysmith @thenaysmith.bsky.social · 24/09/2026

Elections come in two phases. First is the "primary" in which people decide from a slate of candidates which member of their registered party will run for the office. The second phase is picking between the slate composed of each party's one remaining candidate.

Do you mind if I swipe "Repugnantcans", though I'm thinking of "Repugnican'ts" for how they "can't" do any useful governing.

The president banned reporters for asking questions. He can’t defend his record. And if you can’t take the heat, then get out of the kitchen.

Yep. I'm not listening to ranchers at all. They voted for him overwhelmingly and had the audacity to complain last year about policies impacting them negatively. They voted to harm people--just not themselves.

I'm sorry, which operation is that? There are too many to tell which one is named that. Unless it's just the entire thing combined? Agreed, either way.

One of the greatest authors of large series of all time. Going with his books is a very good idea.

Curiously, lightning is one of the few things I don't remember. Hail, fire, flood, plagues, hordes of locusts, hitting the ground and breaking yes. Lightning, I don't remember that.

Does inner focus or the right state of mind count as an inner power issue? And I know this next one isn't the spirit of what you meant, but I find it to be a part of genuine mastery: The issue isn't in being able to cast the spell, so much as casting it in the right time and place.

I don't have the verses handy, but I recall the people seeking a reward having already received it "in full." So, that's supported by Jesus.

Pritzker: The decision by the Supreme Court today on the Voting Rights Act is an abomination. It is an attack on a crown jewel of our democracy. Illinois is the proud home to having sent more black congresspeople to Washington than any other state in the country. We're not going to stand for it.

If the King is NOT in Check, then it can never be a Checkmate. If the opponent has no legal moves but is NOT in Check, then it's a Stalemate = basically a draw.

Suggesting this compromise: the last one is a specific exception to that rule, but falls afoul of different ones instead. Thus showing that you need to check more than just one rule for applicability.

Wow, long time. Hearkening back to their last appearance, I wonder what it says that I remember when the Masks said the reason Ephemural didn't kill Trace was that it was against the rules, not because another would take his place.
