Cryptastic

I grew up Catholic & went to parochial schools , but am now an atheist . Anyone advocating for putting religion/ Bible in schools needs to listen. Our kids don’t need religion.

CHARLIE KIRK MEMORIAL FOUNTAIN

Missouri friends, you cannot vote for even one Republican. This is unsustainable. They will have to start consolidating and closing schools.

“The suppression of uncomfortable ideas may be common in religion and politics, but it is not the path to knowledge.” ― Carl Sagan

Just heard "New Colossal Hate" by Lamb of God. Watched the music video too. Amazing! #music #metal #rock #LambOfGod

I hope I’m wrong, but I feel like Blanche opened this investigation to prevent discovery in any state probes like NM, or to prevent having to release any files due to an “open and ongoing investigation.” www.wsj.com/us-news/law/...

It's always fun discovering new bands to listen to from a BlueSky post. I found 'Grocery Bag' today from RBBP's post. If you like L7 or Pink Fuzz, I think you'll like these guys too. I hope they make their way up to KC from Austin, Texas. I'd love to see 'em live. #Rock #Music #Band #GroceryBag

Just found Texas Toast Chainsaw Massacre's album Super Turbo (2024) and now I'm pissed I haven't heard of them sooner. #Metal #Rock #Music #Chaos #Fun Is "I wanna pet your dog" my favorite song off this album? If they tour through KC, I'm there and bringing friends.

This is completely outrageous and disgusting. This must immediately be blocked by Congress and Trump should be impeached for this. The US is now funding Putin’s war machine as he murders civilians including children. We are lost as a country.

AURALAYER share "Tantalus" single from upcoming album via @decibelmagazine.bsky.social Catchy hooks a la Torche, Mastodon and Baroness, recorded by Philip Cope (Kylesa). Listen: usthemgroup.blogspot.com/2026/10/aura...

When I see a picture of a church, synagogue, or temple adorned in gold filigree, I am reminded of how Trump remodeled the White House. Respective followers deny the corruption, oppression, and privilege it represents and focus instead on the artistic details. Like distracting a toddler with keys.

13.8 billion years of cosmos. 4 billion years of life Earth. All of it led here, to you.

Thirteen donors flagged in federal letters appear nearly 5,700 times in Missouri Sen. Eric Schmitt's reports, highlighting questions about recurring online contributions. The totals for each donor range from just over the donation limit of $3,500 to more than $10,500. (@missouriindependent.com)

Omg…did you read the ProPublica reporting on private schools?

Being a religious scholar is like being the foremost authority on the tooth fairy. Imagine the advancements or discoveries that could be made if believers instead spent the equivalent amount of time studying art, science, mathematics, or engineering? All the wasted time is the real tragedy.

Twenty-six articles of impeachment. And that’s only the beginning.

Missouri Republicans have had power for over two decades. They have had the votes. They have had the budgets. They have had every chance to fund our schools and rural hospitals and roads and libraries and make this state work. If they wanted to, they would. open.substack.com/pub/jesspipe...

We should make a push for mass cancellation of Disney+, Hulu, Netflix, Peacock, Paramount, HBO Max, Amazon Prime and Apple. They have all increased their prices as people are struggling to pay rent, groceries and gas. Guarantee you they'll respond to a massive boycott. All they care about is $$$

What's with all the AI accounts following everyone on Bluesky? Similar pictures... An ambiguous bio... Hundreds of followers... Following tens of thousands... ...and ten posts. Seriously. Who is making money from this and why? I don't trust it.

Robert Kraft's behavior is another reminder we still have the power to vote with our wallets. It sure would be nice to see independent news media highlight his business revenue streams, so people that care can use those trusted sources to boycott them.

“It’s a big club, and you ain’t in it.” GEORGE CARLIN LIFE IS WORTH LOSING (2005) My joint favourite Stand-Up of all time (along with Richard Pryor).

I just learned Elle Simone Scott passed last January due to cancer because America's Test Kitchen put an in memoriam post at the end of the first episode of the 2026 season. She will be missed.

What does Charlie Kirk and a toilet have in common? ... ... ... ... I appreciate neither are alive. #HappyAnniversary

On September 10th, American Antifa supporters do shots of Liber-Tea. #IYKYK

That time you entered the bandit hideout and find it "guarded" by Ulfr the Blind, who unintentionally inspires you to quietly clear the dungeon of its inhabitants in order to gather absolutely everything that is not nailed down and stuff it into his pockets before leaving. #Skyrim

My cousin’s shirt took me a second. He said “it’s great because anyone who would be offended by it couldn’t understand it anyway.”

Did you know if we add four seats to SCOTUS in 2029, we could bring back the charges against Trump for January 6? They could overturn the immunity ruling and consider tolling the statute of limitations for the duration of Trump’s presidency. We could also resurrect the classified documents case.

Got gaps? Fill them with God Putty! 👇🏻🙄

A fascinating discussion on human brains and dreaming. Listen to @neildegrassetyson.com's Startalk podcast episode titled "Your Inner Cosmos with David Eagleman". I rarely re-listen to podcasts, but this one is exceptional.

@noahlugeons.bsky.social's joke about the McDonald's jingle today killed me. 🤣💀 (At 50:40 of Ep 702, The Scathing Athiest)

Prayer doesn’t save lives! If it did, no one would drown, starve, or suffer preventable tragedies! Biblical god is a useless, sadistic, cruel figment of people's imagination!

I plan to celebrate September 10th with a drink... a shot perhaps... and then play some #Helldivers.

Do you also see the correlation between supporters of the 🍊🤡 and people that grew up drinking from white's only drinking fountains (or wishing they did)? ...and they all tell us they're christians. #SeparateChurchAndState

Turns out the less time people spend in church, the more likely they are to support equal rights for their neighbors. Across nearly every religious group, more church means less support for same-sex marriage. Seems pretty clear: less church is better for society.

Why would Karen Bass want the Paramount / Warner lawsuit to be settled, when the merger will cost thousands of jobs and destroy our industry?

Today, I kicked, stretched, and kicked. The second half starts tomorrow.

The Constitution starts with "We the People" for a reason. Missourians have been exercising their power to block the GOP's gerrymander via a redistricting referendum. But Republicans have placed obstacles at every turn. Now, the fight is in its final weeks as a Sept. 8 deadline looms.

The pregnancy mortality rate in Missouri is 31.2 per 100,000 live births. The pregnancy mortality rate in California is 15 per 100,000 live births. What’s the difference? Republicans. 

No administration has done more damage to our environment — in a shorter period of time — than the Trump administration.
