Matthew 6:5-15
5 “And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. 6 But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you. 7 And when you pray, do not keep on babbling like pagans,
in reply to Chris ABRAHAM

for they think they will be heard because of their many words. 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him.

9 “This, then, is how you should pray:

“‘Our Father in heaven,
hallowed be your name,
10 your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give us today our daily bread.
12 And forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from the evil one.'

Illustrating every legendary creature in Wisconsin folklore: The Boobooshaw

The boobooshaw is a gigantic, black, slender skeleton that is thought to stalk the streets and alleys of Port Washington at night. It is partially used as a way of frightening children into behaving: "Don't stay out too late or the boobooshaw will get you!"

My salary is "frozen" again & I can't get research funding. We laid off most of our staff. My brother lost his government job. My disabled mom's health insurance is about to go up 10x. My neighbors' houses are all for sale.

The middle class is deep underwater and this billionaire MF keeps looting.

Every time there is a planned Women's Strike here in Iceland (see: kvennaar.is/english/), the commentary runs along predictably offensive lines

"Women stop working and nothing happens to the economy. Shows you how useless they are, hur hur hur".

No, things pretty much grind to a halt

"Why do women in the Nordic countries strike? These societies are probably the most equal in the world? They must be demanding special treatment"

You're missing a key element of cause and effect there buddy

🇺🇸 Sorveglianza in cloud: la frontiera diventa un progetto pilota

Secondo documenti ottenuti da The Intercept, le istituzioni statunitensi anti immigrazione stanno mostrando un vivo interesse per un sistema di intelligenza artificiale avanzata volto a tracciare attività definite “sospette” in contesti urbani – con tutto ciò che comporta un concetto tanto elastico come “sospetto”.

On n'oublie pas d'aider Yazan s'il vous plaît 🙏.
Chaque matin il parcourt une dizaine de kilomètres à pied jusqu'à Nuseirat pour aller chercher de la nourriture pour sa famille.
Après le transport des 1000 litres d'eau avant-hier (30 voyages avec 30 litres d'eau, 60km...) , il est épuisé mais il ne peut pas se reposer : toute sa famille a besoin de lui pour se nourrir.

Partagez sa cagnotte 🙏🙏, donnez si vous pouvez 🙏🙏

The man created a network of persons in possession of self-defense and security weapons, some former combatants in operational theaters who, for various reasons, had left the Special Forces of the Ministry of National Defense, others passionate about firearms who practice at authorized civilian shooting ranges, to whom he presented himself as an SRI captain according to prosecutors

What ceasefire are they talking about?

97 martyrs killed by Israeli gunfire and direct airstrikes—even under the so-called ceasefire.

11 people—including 7 children and 2 women—erased from the civil registry after their car was bombed while they were on their way home.

230 wounded, including children and women, in areas the Israeli occupation itself had declared “safe.”

Keep talking about Gaza.

Στον λεγόμενο «Φραπέ» εντοπίστηκε αδικαιολόγητη περιουσία ύψους 2,5 εκατομμυρίων ευρώ. Μάλιστα, ο παραγωγός της Κρήτης φαίνεται πως δεν υπέβαλε την υποχρεωτική δήλωση πόθεν έσχες ως όφειλε, ενώ πέρα από την από αδικαιολόγητη κινητή περιουσία, βρέθηκαν οκτώ αυτοκίνητα στην ιδιοκτησία του, εκ των οποίων και μια Jaguar, που θα πρέπει να ελεγχθεί.

Most Americans don’t care about tariffs or premiums—they care about their own agency. Tariffs don’t hit people who buy used, fix what they’ve got, and trade on Facebook Marketplace. That’s a city problem, a Prime problem, a fast-fashion problem. Rural America lives by thrift, not trend.

They aren’t clinging to misery—they’re choosing meaning. They’d rather struggle on their own terms than be “helped” on someone else’s. The left insists they vote against their best interests, but that assumes

in reply to Chris ABRAHAM

their interests are supposed to be comfort, dependency, and victimhood. They reject that premise entirely.

They’ll shoot through themselves to kill what they see as a cultural contagion. It’s chemo, not suicide—a painful cure they believe necessary to burn out the infection. They’ll endure inflation, austerity, and criticism if it means protecting their moral immune system.

This isn’t ignorance—it’s agency. They know exactly what they’re rejecting: the soft condescension that treats them
