"Imagine a faith so empty that you think bringing prayer into schools is following Jesus, but bringing free lunches is not."
"For I was hungry and you gave me something to eat, I was thirsty and you gave me something to drink, I was a stranger and you invited me in, I needed clothes and you clothed me, I was sick and you looked after me, I was in prison and you came to visit me." - Matthew 25: 35-37
Do you eat breakfast?
And by "breakfast", I mean the first meal of the day, and actual food (coffee, tea, and juice, don't count as food but smoothies do)

Federal court of appeal judges, all appointed by Trump, have ruled that Idaho’s ER physicians can face prosecution if they perform an abortion to stabilize a patient, unless their actions qualify for the strict exception that states an abortion can be performed to “prevent the death of the pregnant woman.” The GOP is not the party of freedom. It is the party of intrusive government.
🇬🇧 The Polish Advocate General of the EU Court of Justice recommends weakening jurisdiction and using data retention to prosecute file-sharers.
First the killer argument "child protection" and now all dams break to track down petty criminals.

I’m a huge fan of the #Vestaclass slipstream long range explorers since their introduction with Dax’s USS #Aventine in the Destiny trilogy (Relaunch #Treklit novelverse) & others in Beyer’s Full Circle fleet.
I like the lines of Rademaker’s design, was really pleased to see the #STO Aventine.
Would love to see this ship in 25th century onscreen canon (Captain Ezri Dax too). Just in case there’s an opportunity in future.

@brianleroux well, maintaining a high level of homelessness and stoking fear of “morally deficient” homeless people on the streets is how police justify ever bigger budgets.
@brianleroux Over and over again, studies find that the easiest AND cheapest way to solve social issues is to just give people what they need. Homelessness, Hunger, Healthcare.
Even if you ignore the obvious moral imperatives (shoutout conservative "christians"), on cost-saving alone its the obvious choice. If only the GOP didn't love punishing poor people so much.
