Hey listen: everybody knows you’re a Republican. You’ve made that much clear. But are you a sexist and a racist too? Because if you don’t make that clear, you’re going to get tainted by the sexist and racist Republicans running the party. But you do you. Maybe that’s your bag after all.

There’s a new inspiring religious meme I’m seeing on Tshirts and stickers: “Faith over Fear” The same people selling you FAITH are the ones who got you addicted to FEAR—with their tall tales of gods and monsters, angels and devils, heaven and hell, original sin and saving grace. Fuck all that!

Bluesky thinks it wants to attract thinky people, but doesn’t give them a damn edit button. Don’t set the bar at perfect—else appear illiterate. Super dumb move. Obstinately dumb.

Big if true

For millennia, natural human imagination, ingenuity, and competitiveness was dedicated more to supernatural notions like gods and monsters than to natural pursuits. Once we developed methods for apprehending and recording verifiable details of nature and began to understand them, we began to evolve.

Armageddon SELLS baby! As of 2016, Tim LaHaye sold 65 million copies of his "Left Behind" apocalyptic Christian fantasy novels. Harry Potter is deemed by many Tru Believers(TM) to be dangerous, evil, even satanic, but LaHaye's religious fever dream about the "second coming" is A-OK! PRAI$E JE$U$

Let's recap: The 2500 year old magical mystery myth teamed up with the 2000 year old magical mystery myth to attack the 1500 year old magical mystery myth because they didn't want the newcomers to build any world-ending nuclear weapons the old guard has thousands of. But remember kids: God is love

From the sidelines, Atheists observe this madness and despair for humanity until we remember how rapidly the world is secularizing. Especially younger generations American Christians seem to have no self-control or awareness that they are destroying their own cherished tradition Burn it all down

"We choose to go to the Moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard; because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept [...]" —Pres John F Kennedy

Now get out and vote in the midterms like your life depends on it, because it does. #NoKings

Remember these names: all Cassandras of Trumpism.

When a perfect record of 2000 consecutive years of failed prophecy hasn't convinced you

Just for the record: I never desired for my lovely dear family and friends who earnestly believe in Jesus and Donald Trump to be so publicly exposed as complete idiots and credulous suckers. OK, maybe a little bit? Is that mean?

I'm all for freedoms of conscience: thought, speech, religion, etc but We the People must also acknowledge that some ideas can become enormous cultural problems. Religions can grow into large pathological movements that threaten the foundations of our republic. Douglas Wilson's cult is one of these.

Reminder: Real ID DLs are only valid for voting purposes under the SAVE act in SIX states. "Responding to concerns about a bill that would require proof of citizenship to vote, some Republicans have said an eligible voter needs only a Real ID. But in *44* states, that’s not a solution"

@skeletonkey.bsky.social This is how you turn a brain fart into the voice of the almighty: the Holy Spirit’s gift of discernment Say some shit you just thought of, and call it God’s wisdom. “Says who?” “Says me, the Holy Spirit spoke to me.” “Ah, cool, cool. That makes perfect sense.” Haha. Derp.

Grow up or die.

@boldnewme.bsky.social don’t snooze on this

Sarah Posner and I have been writing about the dangers of this movement since the early 2000s. Here's a new piece by her: talkingpointsmemo.com/news/iran-bl...

@julieingersoll.bsky.social this was excellent — thank you

Waging an offensive nuclear religious war of choice is the ultimate gross irony: deploying modern weapons of war developed by Enlightenment scientific materialism to enforce Iron Age mythological ideology. It's an abandonment, a forfeiture of generations of progress in service to ancient barbarism.

When you ask Christians where their god came from, they’ll say, “Yahweh of Genesis is the eternal prime mover, creator of the universe.” They don’t even know that another supreme creator god El sat atop the Canaanite pantheon for 1,000 years before the Yahweh cult appears in the historical record.

This really ought to be terrifying. We literally have people making decisions to drop bombs in the grips of apocalyptic fantasies.

Viktor Orban is now 20 points behind in the polls - and so he has ordered the military to guard “key energy facilities” against a possible Ukrainian “attack.” Hungarians fear he plans a fake national security emergency or false-flag incident before the April 12 election apnews.com/article/hung...

When there are no laws meaningfully regulating military AI use, the Pentagon’s promise to use AI “lawfully” mean almost nothing. The authoritarian AI crisis has arrived www.platformer.news/anthropic-pe...

Just going to drop this old map here. No reason.

America facing its most dangerous time in 80 years: neoconservative historian

We just cruised on past this story like it was nothing. Zilch. This is the real Donald Trump, the darling of American Christians, the President chosen by god. So they say. #ETTD Everything Trump Touches Dies. Including American Christianity. LOL.

Signs of fascism 👇

Why isn’t anyone talking about the Epstein victims’ documented statements that they were threatened with death and burial at a golf course? These statements were taken many years before Ivana Trump was buried by Donald at Trump National Golf Course. WHO DOES THAT?! This is no coincidence.

Can't they all be impeached for dereliction of duty for confessions of ignorance?

Highlighting the speaker who stood in front of the Surprise mayor and told him to consider what the Mayor of Ohrdruf must’ve thought before he died by suicide: “He might have thought ‘how is this my fault I had no jurisdiction over this’ maybe he said ‘this site was not subject to local zoning.’”

THIS 👇 IS TRUE.......

When you read the limited release of the Epstein files, you realize why Donald Trump wanted a fellow child rapist, Matt Gaetz, in charge of whether to release them.

Pay attention folks. Religiou$ Fanatics are the largest voting block of Republikan$. Without them the GOP's Trumptatorship would have never been. And they have BIG plans, all making things muuuuuch WORSE. We desperately need TOTAL & PERMANENT Separation of Religion & State.

Tesla reported paying ZERO federal income tax on $5.7 billion of U.S. income in 2025. Meanwhile, thanks to his new Tesla pay package, Elon Musk could stand to make $3 billion more per year than all 1.4 million elementary school teachers in the U.S. combined. See the problem here?
