New York magazine published a 5,000 word article about MAGA women that barely mentioned radical Christian theology.

There's plenty of good reporting and interviewing, but the author barely touches on what's motivating his subjects: their deranged religious beliefs.

We can't delude ourselves about the far right. Overwhelmingly, it's religion that motivates these people. They are the American Taliban equivalent. And we should say this.

RT: @mac123_m Why doesn't this get mentioned 😒

The Lebanese party named "Party of God" is hizb allah in Arabic, literally "party of God" (Allah is their word for God).

Why, then, do Westerners call it "Hezbollah" rather than "Hizballah"? Does it have something to do with hiding the fact that they worship the same God as most Westerners? Curious penguins are... curious. #middleeast

So my usual sources of chile verde seem to not carry it anymore, but they do carry the ingredients for it. Anybody have a good recipe for chile verde that they'd like to share? #food #recipes
@badtux There's an ever-increasing subset of people in security whose only skill set is to get platformed or have their product platformed and proceed to talk about things they have 0 understanding of.

Airsnitch "attack" against WiFi routers boils down to, "if you can connect to the router, you can view all traffic going through the router."

Duh?

It has been a recommendation for literally decades to always use encryption and, preferably, a VPN if using public WiFi for exactly this reason. Unless you're running a public WiFi access point in your house, this is a total nothing-burger.

People who claim to be "Christian" who listen to some gasbag clergy about what they should believe and who they should hate rather than reading their Bible and actually following what it says there (specifically, the New Testament Christ's Gospel part with that whole "love thy neighbor as thyself", not the Old Testament Jewish part) are just fooling themselves, they're not fooling the rest of us. They're no more Christian than the average Satanist. #religion
