So a court has told another court to stop looking into court cases (and the people not following court orders) and let people not follow court orders.

So court orders are meaningless.

The Bible I read definitely had something to say about nobody except god knowing when jesus was supposed to come back.

Certainly never said you could summon God with a blood sacrifice.

Then again, most Christians have never read the Bible. If they had, they would probably be like me and no longer believe.

Never let a working man slander the name of my father.

He was the union man.

Surface looks damp, leaves and pine needles tend to stick a lot.

However, by the time you are done blowing, the surface will be bone dry and nobody will slip!

To me bats are only jump-scary, like paranormal activity.

They're too cute up close to be afraid of, they only get me when I'm walking at night and one passes close enough for me to hear it flapping for a split second, which doesn't happen every day, but several times a day since I walk my dogs down a road with a forest to live in on one side and a field filled with juicy bugs for them to eat on the other.

I had one take up residence in the corner of my porch covering, it made me jump a little the first time I noticed it move, but I liked checking on him every morming

I live in rural Ohio and actually live fairly close to a decent sized solar farm.

Over the last 2-3 years I've seen more household solar setups, and one person I'm super jealous of has a really nice wind turbine/solar hybrid system with a garage battery wall visible when they leave their garage door open.

We're very slowly getting there, but it's like running a race with a weight around your ankle and people swinging at you with bats.

And STILL I hear dumb shits in the US say "solar isn't feasible"

Motherfuckers then why does literally every other country have tons of solar plants, rooftop installations, balcony installations and some packed away they can pull out when the power cuts out? Why do major companies put massive solar farms next to their new factories? Why are people interested in fossil fuels spending so much goddamn money telling people solar sucks? If it sucked, people wouldn't use it.

I mean.... He's already destroyed what reputation and goodwill the country had with most friendly nations, and that won't be likely to ever recover. Certainly not for many decades. The country itself is in quite a bit of internal turmoil.

He is unlikely to destroy the world, but plenty of insane Nationalist Christians believe the end is close and want to bring about global war so a carpenter who died a couple thousand years ago can come out of the celestial closet he's been hiding in. So while unlikely, he's got people trying to make it happen.

Damn, that goal post shifted in a single comment!

I have several hobbies that could make bank if I wanted to put in time and effort.

That requires treating executive dysfunction, which can't happen unless I have money. In order to get money I have to work jobs I absolutely hate, and that suck all energy and will to live out of me, and I don't want to do anything with my hobbies.

If I didn't have to worry about food, housing, and whether I have electricity or not, I could sell a handful of things a month and be just fine on utilities and a luxury purchase every so often.

My headcannon: having read the Absolutely 100% canon books "Q-zone, W-Strike, and Q-space", my personal belief is that since Q is partially responsible for the entity in the center claiming to be god, Q decided to artificially speed up their journey to the barrier and back home. Nobody on the ship brought it up because nobody was even thinking about travel time in the middle of all that.
