Is this true? Do you agree? Do you believe this?
“… it is better for you that one man should die instead of the people, so that the whole nation may not perish.”
Holy Gospel of Jesus Christ according to Saint John 11,45-56
45 Many of the Jews who had come to Mary and seen what Jesus had done began to believe in him. 46 But some of them went to the Pharisees and told them what Jesus had done. 47 So the chief priests and the Pharisees convened the Sanhedrin and said, “What are we going to do? This man is performing many signs. 48 If we leave him alone, all will believe in him, and the Romans will come and take away both our land and our nation.” 49 But one of them, Caiaphas, who was high priest that year, said to them, “You know nothing, 50 nor do you consider that it is better for you that one man should die instead of the people, so that the whole nation may not perish.” 51 He did not say this on his own, but since he was high priest for that year, he prophesied that Jesus was going to die for the nation, 52 and not only for the nation, but also to gather into one the dispersed children of God. 53 So from that day on they planned to kill him. 54 So Jesus no longer walked about in public among the Jews, but he left for the region near the desert, to a town called Ephraim, and there he remained with his disciples. 55 Now the Passover of the Jews was near, and many went up from the country to Jerusalem before Passover to purify themselves. 56 They looked for Jesus and said to one another as they were in the temple area, “What do you think? That he will not come to the feast?”

Exoticism is the tendency to view cultures outside one’s own as strange, alluring, or fundamentally “other,” reducing them to aesthetic or symbolic objects. It romanticizes difference while flattening complexity, often reflecting more about the observer’s gaze than the reality of the people observed
“Exceptio probat regulam in casibus non exceptis” = “the exception proves the rule in cases not excepted.” Often attributed to Cicero, though the exact origin is debated. The modern cliché is “the exception proves the rule,” usually misunderstood.
America really sucks at being authoritarian.
America really sucks at being an authoritarian state. People talk stink about Trump all the time and they’re not thrown in jail. People go ahead and spit in the face of armored and weaponized people in the streets and don’t get shot in the face. America is the worst authoritarian country in the history of authoritarian countries. Not even one Kent State event in the last 50 years. I mean it’s really lazy. None of the late night show people are in a gulag. It’s all talk and rhetoric. Everybody is so sensitive. Then again, there are two million people in jails and prisons currently. That’s pretty authoritarian. But it’s been like that for decades. I don’t know man, when it comes to authoritarianism this is pretty underwhelming.
My view: this DHS shutdown was always about ICE. That is the leverage, the pawn, the whole ball of wax. Democrats are basically saying fund the rest, curb ICE. Republicans would be dumb to concede on the one thing the fight is actually about.
This is so cliché and derivative I can’t believe it. I wish the Chinese created better memes. This is way too OG socialist realist utopian that’s cartoon level trope. I fucking love it!
Fascinating.

I really liked Starfleet Academy. I thought it was inventive, and honestly it probably should’ve been about high school kids, not college kids, because it basically plays like a high school show anyway. I’m sad to see it go, and it’s weird calling it canceled when season 2 still exists.
What tearing down Cesar Chavez symbolizes
For the last decade, the people torn down in effigy have mostly been Confederate generals, slaveholders, segregationists, and other plainly racist white villains. Now Chavez gets the same symbolic treatment. Whatever the details, the public reads the signal, not the footnotes. If he is handled like them, many people will assume he belongs in the same moral category. That is how symbolism works: it flattens distinct histories into one shared judgment.
Hilarity ensues.

Amazing speech on academia and economics.

Imitation is the sincerest form of flattery. After years of framing Joe Biden as cognitively impaired, trying the same line on Trump just feels recycled. The shot’s already been fired. It doesn’t land twice—it just reads as derivative, not devastating.
