I told my wife, who works in the mental health profession, that there's all these people who believe AI models can feel pain. She immediately responded with "are these people who struggle to identify their own emotions?" I think she hit it with one shot

Trump has it backward—more Americans want permanent Standard Time, not permanent DST. History also shows permanent Standard Time lasts decades, but permanent DST gets promptly repealed after its months of post-8am sunrises are felt.
JUST IN: Trump demands Senate Republicans pass the Sunshine Protection Act, declaring Americans are “sick and tired” of changing their clocks twice a year.

Nothing makes me frustrated with the previous homeowner of my house than finding landscape fabric in my flower beds. 😅 This morning I found fabric about 3 inches under some St. John's wart.

Adulthood is slowly understanding that 'we definitely need to grab coffee soon' is just the secular, socially acceptable version of 'may we meet again in the afterlife.'

A more obvious path would be to permit on-site beef processing, bypassing the cartel enforced by USDA. This ought to be a major Republican issue! teapaw.org/FoxNews/status/2090763…
NEW: President Trump announces a new push to lower ground beef prices for American families, saying he has secured a commitment for beef to be sold at 25% below current market prices: "As everyone knows, under President Biden, beef prices soared at their fastest rate and the American beef herd fell to its smallest size in modern history." "This deal will reduce prices for Americans while giving space for our Great American Beef Herd to grow again."

Good Tuesday from the Rogue Valley. Whatever fire (literal or figurative) you’re facing, remember: the God who formed us from dust is still in the business of breathing life back into dry places. Tend the soil in front of you today.

“The House chose golfers over kids… Permanent DST would misalign circadian rhythms, crucial for sleep, mood, and safety, particularly for children…”

👏 @RepBarragan now sponsors the new Sunshine for Our Kids Act, to restore healthier/safer permanent Standard Time nationwide, while granting permanent Daylight Saving Time for the minority requesting it—thank you! 👉 Tell your US house rep and senators to sponsor too!

I found this bit today between @RealMattFradd and Peter Kreeft profoundly moving (Kreeft’s wife of 60+ years recently died). It’s no wonder marriage is a type of Christ and His Church. If we love His Catholic Church only if Her body is beautiful, we are not truly loving Her.

Think about what this will do over 3-5 years...I don't think people realize how much of a jam we are in.
People should be much more upset about their work only offering them a 2% raise per year and acting like it’s a big deal Just to keep up with the increase in the cost of living, you would need at a minimum a 4.2% each year in a national average. But it’s actually worse than that If you look at the true cost of how much more expensive things are getting and don’t go off inflation, you would actually need over a 7%+ raise each year

Wary of ritual isn't the same as wary of the body. Somewhere along the way we confused the two.

In permaculture, Zone 00 is the gardener. Before zones 1 through 5, before the soil and the seeds and the layout, there is you. The most important part of your garden is the one you keep forgetting to tend. permaculturepastor.substack.…

Permaculture teaches that the most productive space in a system is the edge, where two ecosystems meet. Scripture says the same thing about people. The margins were never peripheral to Jesus. They were the point.
