I wrote a message to my mom giving her a heads up on my carefully thought-out plan to approach my wife about a divorce, and then accidentally sent it to my wife.

@justinbaragona Lucifer is never named or mentioned in the New Testament. Lucifer means "light-bringer", luciferase is an enzyme responsible for bioluminescence. Most importantly, luciferase is not in ANY covid vaccines.

A reminder that Clarence Thomas is 75. Samuel Alito is 74. Roberts and Sotomayor are 69. If Trump wins in November, he is virtually guaranteed to appoint replacements for 2 of these justices, if not more. That means massive implications for future gun cases-- which is to say

@meowmeowmia 1. Most clothes at big galas are on loan from the designer. 2. AOC's estimated net worth is 100k, the richest Congressperson's is 214M, (2,000x higher). 3. I'll agree it's not a 100% great look, but the opportunity was there and she used it to say something.
