And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.
And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
For all nations have drunk of the wine of the wrath of her fornication, and the kings of the earth have committed fornication with her, and the merchants of the earth are waxed rich through the abundance of her delicacies.
And I heard another voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
For her sins have reached unto heaven, and God hath remembered her iniquities.
Reward her even as she rewarded you, and double unto her double according to her works: in the cup which she hath filled fill to her double.
How much she hath glorified herself, and lived deliciously, so much torment and sorrow give her: for she said in her heart, I sit a queen, and am no widow, and shall see no sorrow.
Therefore shall her plagues come in one day, death, and mourning, and famine; and she shall be utterly burned with fire: for strong is the Lord God who judges her.
And the kings of the earth, who have committed fornication and lived deliciously with her, shall bewail her, and lament for her, when they shall see the smoke of her burning,
Standing afar off for the fear of her torment, saying, Alas, alas that great city Babylon, that mighty city! for in one hour is thy judgment come. ~Revelation 18:1-10

I saw this last night.
And I'm really, like, What The Fuck?!?!
A whole bunch of fucking people...completely irrationally, given what actually happened the last time (and who was responsible for the COVID-19 stimulus checks for that matter-obviously the Congressional Democrats) think they're gonna get Stimulus checks or something the fuck else out of this whole Trump thing.
I'm just sayin' it's the entire Modus Operandi of skeevy con-artists and salesmen like Trump to make you think you're somehow going to come out ahead when they scam you.
(And millions of people have bought into this, gotten scammed, and gone back for more already.)
Like, seriously, it didn't automatically check out to you that somebody whose handle was "Mia Babe" might not be acting all Jesus-y in good faith??
I mean, sure, there's a lot of people out there that are perfectly happy talking about Jesus one minute and then doing the Nasty in the next, but it's been my experience, that such people's other activities tend to overshadow their religious participation.
What's even the goddamned point??
I mean, seriously, people who are obviously on something (like, right then) trying to talk to me about Jesus at work are a daily thing. You let it go in one ear and out the other, move them along, Have a Blessed Day, NEXT! Or you end up wasting all your time on idiots who are coming at you in bad faith in the first fuckin' place.
Block and move on, you are not obligated to argue with Nimrods.
Nothing wrong with that...granted all the Christian sex workers that I've met were prior to the rise of social media, but I don't recall those kind of people seeking out arguments about the shit. Also, I hate it when people try and pretend to be something they're not, especially when that's what they're selling. One of these things is not like the other one.
Speaking of bullshit artists that claim to have gotten the Jesus, Matt Gaetz withdrew himself from consideration for US Attorney General yesterday.
And goddamn, did a lot of the usual "Conservative" Influencer suspects (and the occasional far-Leftist) buy into some bullshit idea that Beavis McFloridaMan was the greatest legal mind since Ben Matlock and/or Frito Pendejo or some similar horseshit.
I mean, come on, what the fuck is even wrong with people??
I'm warning you now, Trump 2.0 very much looks like Basic Republicans with a side of Trump instead of the other way around like it was the first time...which means NONE of These Fucking People are gonna be happy with what they get, and nobody's gonna get this whole mess stuck to them quite like MAGA is. Perhaps more to the point, the Christian Nationalists are apparently very much on the warpath and organizing already. I think they see an opening what with Trump's lack of leadership and think they'll get away with whatever bullshit they do.
And that's not just in spite of, but actually because of how much of the shit is actually a scam. Guess what? They think they're gonna manipulate God too.
Never mind that if God can be manipulated by Man, He is clearly not God.
And trust me, the real bad actors here are probably subscribing to that one OnlyFans hoe, too.
Because as we've already seen with Trump and most of his Clown Car brigade, most of these grifters are also marks.
Most of these Christian Nationalists are also perverts.
That doesn't mean you have to be as dumb or perverse as they are. Don't wrestle with the goddamn pig, you get all dirty and the pig enjoys it.
Look, Democracy and Freedom both require a few basic things from people to have them; Good faith, Intelligence, Participation, a certain level of reasonably enlightened Self-Interest, and a Willingness to fight for the things one believes in will do for a start.
Freedom ain't free, sometimes you're gonna have to fight for it.
But that also means picking the right fights.
That means doing the shit that matters instead of whatever you can do while sitting on your ass playing around on social media.
This ain't it.
Come on, people.
Слава Україна!
If we lose freedom here, there is no place to escape to. This is the last stand on Earth. And this idea that government is beholden to the people, that it has no other source of power except to sovereign people, is still the newest and most unique idea in all the long history of man's relation to man. This is the issue of this election. Whether we believe in our capacity for self-government or whether we abandon the American revolution and confess that a little intellectual elite in a far-distant capital can plan our lives for us better than we can plan them ourselves. ~Ronald Reagan
Freedom is the freedom to say that two plus two make four. If that is granted, all else follows. ~George Orwell, 1984.
