people love to look at christianity and see a tool for their own purposes
Optimistic near-future timeline:
2026
Left realizes that allying with progressive Christians is its trump card (hehe) against MAGA
2027
- Return of MLK-style love-based Christian politics
- Brings in voters who aren’t Christian but who are exhausted by rage-based politics and lack of strong moral character in politicians.
- Possible papal support despite “heresies?”
- Talarico runs for president
2028
- Progressive Christian turn has now fused with the trend we’re seeing of young people turning back to mystical Christianity.
- Eastern Spirituality converts who were burned by conservative Christianity see this mystical and progressive turn happening and return to their Western religious roots
- Christian-Budd-ish religions emerge, alleviating the weaknesses of either religion. Initially these will start as sects of Christianity or Buddhism, but one will become the most memetically viable

this year i started recording everything my wife and i make for dinner (besides leftovers, sandwiches, or low effort rice+meat meals)
i use the Day One app to log each dinner and it makes it easy to look back a few months ago for ideas if needed
Why is this such a difficult thing for women? Nearly, every woman I know (except Mom, who still has a rigid schedule for each night) struggles to think dinner. Not actually MAKE dinner, but think of what to make and this is an incredibly stressful thing for them.

what a beautiful airplane
This plane has four propellers and five engines.
The fifth one is a small turboshaft of about 1,364 hp that never turns a propeller. It runs a compressor that blows air over the flaps, a trick called boundary layer control. It keeps the airflow stuck to the wing at flap angles where an ordinary wing would stall, so a big amphibian can fly as slowly as about 90 km/h.
That slow speed is the whole point. Waves don't flatten out for you, and the slower you touch down, the gentler the hit. ShinMaywa says the US-2 can land in waves up to 3 meters.
Then there's the spray. Watch the clip the hull has a spray suppressor that pushes water down and spray strips that throw it sideways, so it stays out of the engines.
A flying boat has to solve the water as well as the air.
