🚨🚨🚨 MAJOR ALERT: THE WHITE HOUSE IN DC HAS NOW TURNED ALL GREEN !!!
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
Misleading if this photograph is being presented as that of the White House in October 2024. The photo is from March 2021, commemorating St. Patrick's Day. x.com/WhiteHouse/sta… Fact-checks reuters.com/fact-check/ima… independent.co.uk/news/world/ame… indy100.com/news/qanon-whi…

it’s really ageist, insensitive and quite privileged for 17-year-olds to be centering their fear of sabrina carpenter on social media right now while some of us are almost 40 and even more afraid of her. ☝️

I saw someone here say when Rome collapsed, it became a church. When Britain collapsed, it became a bank. What will America become when it fully collapses?

One of the key elements of good character design is that you should be able to recognize them by their silhouette. George Lucas is a well designed character.

I learned today the heartbreaking news of the death of a dear friend and colleague, the theologian and Merton scholar, Greg Hillis. Our prayers are with his wife Kim and their children at this time. A gofundme page was set up to help Greg and his family: gofundme.com/f/fc7rs-gregs-c…

I’m the epitome of CS Lewis’s far too easily pleased. I find a ridiculous amount of joy in a dog running gleefully with a big ol stick or branch. Works for me every time. Any dog. What I’m saying is, it can change my whole mood.

This was one of the best shows I’ve seen in recent years. It felt actually new, had actual things to say. So naturally the beast swallows it.
‘KAOS’ has been cancelled by Netflix after 1 season.

I sometimes wonder how often security guards at shows become fans of the bands that they’re working during. Well, this @FurnaceFest security guy became a fan of the music and the community this weekend. So cool.

Elon Musk's mom is encouraging people to commit outright voter fraud. This website still has the juice.
