One day, in the dim distant future, when humans have finally grown up, there'll be a huge museum filled with examples of non-self-aware OCD architecture like staggered stairs, churches, temples, giant Buddhas, etc.
LOL

I've got a revelation for you.

So you're saying even God doesn't know what's in the Epstein files?

"Christians say 'God is delaying the Rapture' until Epstein Files are released"

I've always wanted to write an absurdist satire on (some) Christians relationship to their faith, but I have to admit I can't make up anything sillier than what they're doing in real life.

Christians say 'God is delaying the Rapture' until Epstein Files are released

Pastor Joshua Mhlakela made a chilling 'prediction' about the end of the world last month, claiming the rapture was 'coming September 23, 2025' - but it didn't happen

I shared that Gemini post on xTwit.

I got the below response. Seemed fine to me, not at all troll-like.

So I went to reply and...they'd blocked me. For agreeing with me.

What...the...actual...heck?

I'm heading into an MMO, because fantasy often makes more sense than real life.

I think I'd have gone with the Spanish leather option, myself. 😱

"...Osborne then skinned Parrott's body and had a pair of shoes and medical bag made out of the human skin. The bag has never been found. Years later Osborne entered politics and was elected governor of Wyoming. To his 1893 inauguration he wore the shoes that a dozen years earlier had been a man."

Osborne was a medical doctor no less.

Ridiculous History: A Wild West Governor Wore Shoes of Human Skin

A Wild West governor once wore a pair of shoes made of the skin of an executed felon named Big Nose George. The gruesome but true story is predictably involved.

Personally I'm never going to understand people who get mega pressed about their grass lawns. Grass lawns are pretty worthless for pollinators and the environment, waste water, aren't aesthetically pleasing, and trigger hella allergies. Rip it out and put something better in. And put a sign up if you're that butthurt about people going in it. #Grass #Lawn #PeopleAreWeird

"tripping balls"

What do balls have to do with it? Is this just another example of using random sexual references or profanities to suggest something is superlative?

I don't get why everyone in these home renovation shows says that demolition is the most fun part of it. Are they insane? Are they psychopaths?

Building stuff is the fun part! Designing something from a vision in your head and making it come to life in the real world is the fun part. Using your own two hands to fabricate and assemble something is the fun part.
