My best friend spent 3 months watching this back in 2022. There’s an article out there that says that they are the only film critic to ever make the claim that they sat down to watch the entire thing and it’s “impossible to know” if they actually did.” I was there, they totally did, and wrote this:

The IDF appears to be attempting to get Christian and Druze communities in southern Lebanon to expel their Shiite Muslim neighbors so that the IDF doesn’t have to do it itself. (It tried something similar 44 years ago, and the result was Hezbollah.)

Great day for Moon fans.

I really hate this. Do I think the Gospel speak to our current political moment? Of course. (Will I tell you what I think it says? No.) But even a perfectly just human society — if such a thing were ever possible — would still need to Gospel. Or at least I would.

Stock futures sink as Trump says U.S. on track to complete Iran objectives ‘very shortly’ www.marketwatch.com/story/stock-... via @MarketWatch

U.S. Homeland Security Secretary Markwayne Mullin on Wednesday rescinded a policy requiring the secretary to approve contracts over $100,000, the Department of Homeland Security said.

In conclusion, the U.S. is now locked into a ”mowing the grass” strategy with Iran.

quite clearly, there is no plan, this speech was hollow on addressing real challenges with the Strait, leaving it to others, and there is no reason to expect the Strait will reopen anytime soon. no plan- no concern- this will likely start to push oil prices back up.

U.S. Central Command attacked the school based on long outdated coordinates for the strike provided by another defense agency, one of the officials told The Intercept. interc.pt/40qCS2w

Interesting that Trump talked about Iran’s “nuclear dust” and how it was buried where they couldn’t get it. But if they tried the US had satellites watching and would hit them. Seems to me like this means he’s planning to leave it in place.

Being quick to a story gives you a much better chance of being ranked higher in Google search results — a fact I blame for many of digital journalism’s current ills.

Trump: "I know you're big Israel fans. Frankly, evangelicals like, and Christians, I think they like Israel more than Jewish people like Israel, if you wanna know the truth. It's really true."

This is by far my worst anxiety dream.

Every other toilet just got a text from their mom.

I went back to capture what the astronauts said in full when the clock was stopped at T-10 minutes and they were asked if they were go for launch: This is Victor. We are going for our families. This is Christina. We are going for our teammates. This is Jeremy. We are going for all humanity.

My mom just texted this - that’s from her front yard. That’s a picture of home.

How are the apps, you ask?

If there is tension between what the chart says and the population-level reaction to the phenomena depicted in the chart, you can't just dismiss the reaction as irrational. You have to figure out what's causing the tension if you want to resolve it.

Hire religion reporters!

Religion aside: Artemis II roughly mimics Apollo 8, which coincided with Christmas and during which astronauts read from Genesis while orbiting the moon. An atheist activist actually sued over that at the time, but SCOTUS threw it out due to lack of jurisdiction — presumably referring to…space.

It’s actually possible to write headlines that don’t obscure who did what. Thanks, AP.

Notable that at no point was there any indication during the arguments that this was happening. So I guess he left quietly?
