President George W. Bush's chief speechwriter, Michael Gerson, has a message for people who are excusing President Trump's racism:
"I had fully intended to ignore President Trump’s latest round of racially charged taunts against an African American elected official, and an African American activist, and an African American journalist and a whole city with a lot of African Americans in it. I had every intention of walking past Trump’s latest outrages and writing about the self-destructive squabbling of the Democratic presidential field, which has chosen to shame former vice president Joe Biden for the sin of being an electable, moderate liberal.
But I made the mistake of pulling James Cone’s 'The Cross and the Lynching Tree' off my shelf — a book designed to shatter convenient complacency. Cone recounts the case of a white mob in Valdosta, Ga., in 1918 that lynched an innocent man named Haynes Turner. Turner’s enraged wife, Mary, promised justice for the killers. The sheriff responded by arresting her and then turning her over to the mob, which included women and children. According to one source, Mary was 'stripped, hung upside down by the ankles, soaked with gasoline, and roasted to death. In the midst of this torment, a white man opened her swollen belly with a hunting knife and her infant fell to the ground and was stomped to death.'
God help us. It is hard to write the words. This evil — the evil of white supremacy, resulting in dehumanization, inhumanity and murder — is the worst stain, the greatest crime, of U.S. history. It is the thing that nearly broke the nation. It is the thing that proved generations of Christians to be vicious hypocrites. It is the thing that turned normal people into moral monsters, capable of burning a grieving widow to death and killing her child.
When the president of the United States plays with that fire or takes that beast out for a walk, it is not just another political event, not just a normal day in campaign 2020. It is a cause for shame. It is the violation of martyrs’ graves. It is obscene graffiti on the Lincoln Memorial. It is, in the eyes of history, the betrayal — the re-betrayal — of Haynes and Mary Turner and their child. And all of this is being done by an ignorant and arrogant narcissist reviving racist tropes for political gain, indifferent to the wreckage he is leaving, the wounds he is ripping open.
Like, I suspect, many others, I am finding it hard to look at resurgent racism as just one in a series of presidential offenses or another in a series of Republican errors. Racism is not just another wrong. The Antietam battlefield is not just another plot of ground. The Edmund Pettus Bridge is not just another bridge. The balcony outside Room 306 at the Lorraine Motel is not just another balcony. As U.S. history hallows some causes, it magnifies some crimes.
What does all this mean politically? It means that Trump’s divisiveness is getting worse, not better. He makes racist comments, appeals to racist sentiments and inflames racist passions. The rationalization that he is not, deep down in his heart, really a racist is meaningless. Trump’s continued offenses mean that a large portion of his political base is energized by racist tropes and the language of white grievance. And it means — whatever their intent — that those who play down, or excuse, or try to walk past these offenses are enablers.
Some political choices are not just stupid or crude. They represent the return of our country’s cruelest, most dangerous passion. Such racism indicts Trump. Treating racism as a typical or minor matter indicts us."
— Michael Gerson

Kire Schneider on Google+ The New Democrat on Facebook The New Democrat on Twitter I actually agree with Mark Shields on this.  Republicans, especially in the Senate, love to criticize President Obama when it comes to Ukraine.  They blame him for everything from Ukraine to earthquakes thousands of miles away in Asia and perhaps every other problem that has arisen during his presidency.

I know there will probably be a lot of these in the next few days. The fires in LA are not slowing down. But these are my friends. They've been together for many years, married for 12 (their anniversary was on New Year's Day), and their house is GONE. They have the car and the clothes they were wearing. I don't know what else to do for them but post this link. If you can spare a donation or a share, thank you, and if not, I hope you can do something nice for someone, and that you have something nice done for you. We are all in this together 💖

Here’s my take on Deltarune’s later chapters.
So I actually postponed this post for a while because I wanted to have the dialogue sprites ready for it, but I never really got around finishing them.
Because of that, I will only post the overworld sprites.
Now all of this is technically subject to change as I had some new ideas as of recently, but I will write down the current concepts either way.
Chapter 3’s main bosses are Michael “Pink-Rook” Tenna (otherwise known as Peter) and Michael “Blue-Rook” Tenna (otherwise known as Baker). They have a brotherly rivalry sort of dynamic and I did base them a bit after the Left and Right Twix commercials in a way, as they tend to try to be different but end up doing essentially the same thing. Peter has a cliché French accent while Baker has a cliché German accent.  CH3’s secret boss is Mike An, who in the light world is the middle, half-circle piece of the TV’s antenna. He is the third brother (also the oldest one technically) who will go into retirement very soon after receiving a phone call from a mysterious someone during one of his radio shows. He would appear more in the story than Spamton does.
Chapter 4’s main boss is Bowoman, who is best described as a fraud, as there is no Bowman/Bow Woman chess piece. In a family dynamic she would be best described as the strange, distant cousin. Her lightworld counterpart is the tall sink within Sans and Papyrus’ house, as this chapter takes place there.  CH4’s secret boss is Times New Roman (or shortly referred to as Roman), who in the lightworld would be an old newspaper featuring an article of the disappearance of a specific someone. He takes on the role of secret boss similarly as Jevil, by not making direct contact with the Lightners unless they go to his place specifically.
Chapter 5’s main boss is John “Bishop” Baptiste. While he poses no threat, his patience does break when the Lightners disturb the peace of his church. His Lightworld counterpart is the bowl filled with the “sick” fruit juice.  CH5’s secret boss is Sabarter, the other Bishop, whose ways have been corrupted by one of the Knights. Her Lightworld counterpart is a broken Church Chalice. Similarly to Mike, she appears frequently throughout the story.
Chapter 6’s main boss is The Knight, whose lightworld counterpart is Gerson’s Hammer, while CH6’s secret boss is the other Knight, being Gaster. I will say as much that Gaster will only appear if the previous secret bosses have been defeated, though otherwise, not much to say about the Knights or the chapter as I haven’t conceptualized it that much. Same goes for Chapter 7, where I didn’t go further than the main boss being the Vessel, who represents the Pawn chesspiece.
Anyhow, I will see if I can put some work into this later on.
Currently, due to school and my focus being put onto original projects, my posts will continue to be really inconsistent, so, I want to apologize beforehand.
See ya.

"Contemplating a loving God strengthens portions of our brain — particularly the frontal lobes and the anterior cingulate — where empathy and reason reside. Contemplating a wrathful God empowers the limbic system, which is ‘filled with aggression and fear.’ It is a sobering concept: The God we choose to love changes us into his image, whether he exists or not.”

Je suis Charles Didier Paul Jonas, dit Charlie. 
Je suis le fils de Barbara Graetz, la fille d'Erika Samson et de Helmut Graetz. Ma grande mère maternelle, avec sa sœur Léonie, étaient les deux  seules de sa famille à avoir réussies à échapper aux nazis pendant la Seconde Guerre mondiale. Leur parents et leur frère de 18 ans ont été exterminés à Auschwitz.
Mon père est Didier Jonas, son père était Paul Jonas. 
Paul Jonas et le général Charles de Gaulle libérèrent Paris des nazis en juin 1945.
Je suis Charles Didier Paul Jonas, tout le monde m'appelle Charlie car maman est britannique mais mon sang est juif allemand. 
Je suis né à Paris le 30 octobre 1983 à la Clinique de la Muette située rue Nicolo dans le 16ème arrondissement de Paris. Ma grand mère est française, elle s'appelait Marie Odile Colin puis Jonas suite à son marriage avec Paul Jonas mon grand père. 
Ma chère et défunte grand mère souhaitait que je sois baptisé pour pouvoir entrer dans une école privée catholique : Gerson situé au 31 rue de la Pompe,toujours dans le 16ème... 
Ma grand mère anglaise, Erika Graetz à toujours crue que j'étais Juif pendant toute mon enfance. Dans les années 90 nous allions 5 ou 6 fois par an voir Gaggy, comme je l'appelai quand j'étais enfant. Elle habitait à Queensbury, 22 Branksom Way dans la zone 7 de Londres. Mon frère Alexandre et moi étions quasiment les seuls enfants blancs à jouer au cricket, tennis et foot avec les enfants paquistanais et indiens du quartier. 
L'eurostar n'existait pas à l'époque donc on voyageait avec la Renault Clio de maman que faisait ses propres cassettes de toutes les musiques des années 60, 70, 80 et 90. Nous tapions dans nos mains sur Tina Turner : You are simply the best, Witney Houston, Queen, Elton John, Michael Jackson, Prince et tous les autres..... 
En bref, j'ai été baptisé catholique en France et quand nous traverssions la manche en ferry ou aeroglisseur, j'arrivais juif à Douvres ! Ma vision de la religion est forcément un peu particulière.
Aujourd'hui je crois en une force supérieure qui guide nos pas. Merci Ophelie Winter, le premier CD 3 titres que j'ai acheté à 12 ou 13 ans.... Dieu m'a donné la foi. 
J'ai failli mourir dans un accident de voiture à 21 ans et j'ai été emprisonné à Dubaï en 2012, du 8 février au 24 juillet.
Suite à ce malheureux épisode j'ai décidé d'aller habiter dans un pays qui représente l'extrême opposé de Dubai. Le Brésil et plus particulièrement Rio de Janeiro.
J'ai atterrit à Rio le 29 avril 2014 avec 7000 euros en poche et un visa étudiant. En juin 2014, l'Allemagne à gagné la coupe du monde de football. J'étais présent et à la dernière fête de la coupe un ami nommé Léo est venu à la fête accompagné d'une brésilienne blonde aux yeux bleus qui s'appelle Priscila. Ça été le coup de foudre immédiat. Nous nous sommes mariés le 18 juin 2015 et allons bientôt célébrer nos 10 de marriages !
Priscila est originaire de sud du Brésil. Sa famille sont des allemands immigrés d'avant la seconde guerre mondiale. Une partie de sa famille avait quelques liens avec la seconde guerre mondiale mais aujourd'hui ils ont changé de bord et vivent paisiblement au Brésil. L'ironie de la vie. L'amour vainquera toujours ! 
Aujourd'hui nous habitons à Vidigal, une communauté / favela paisible au pied des montagnes des deux frères et à 5 minutes de Leblon, Rio de Janeiro.
Je suis très heureux d'être né dans le 16ème arrondissement de Paris et de vivre aujourd'hui dans une favela ou je fais de belles choses pour la communauté et les gens dans le besoin. 
J'aime Rio et son style de vie plus que tout au monde. J'ai monté mon agence immobilière qui s'appelle www.artdevivre.com.br. Mon nom sur instagram est charlielabellevie...
Je travail actuellement sur la rénovation d'une maison à Vidigal qui appartenait à David Beckham,le célèbre joueur de foot anglais qui a joué à Manchester, au Real de Madrid et au Paris Saint Germain. David à toujours joué avec le numéro 7. Du coup sur mon site internet la maison est la ADV007 :
J'écris ce texte en vue de ce qu'il se passe aujourd'hui dans le monde. J'espère qu'il y a d'autres personnes dans mon cas qui sont inquiets de ce que Donald Duck et Elon Fuck vont faire de cette planète. Moi, perso, j'enverrai bien Elon sur mars, qu'il nous foute la paix. 
Et pour ce qui est des États-Unis et de ses psychopathes de républicains, je propose de resister fermement à leurs projets de déportations, d'extremisme de droite et de surtout leur montrer qu'il est impératif de s'occuper immédiatement de l'environnement de notre planète ainsi que des humains qui la peuple. 
La planète terre est un endroit magique. Prenons-en soin.
Les armes ne sont pas nécessaires. Pourquoi un être humain devrait en tuer un autre ? Investissez tout l'argent que vous dépensez dans l'armement et dépensez-le dans des technologies pour nettoyer notre planète.
Il y a suffisamment d'espace sur terre pour que nous puissions tous profiter d'une vie heureuse avec les personnes que nous aimons. De toutes les races, de toutes les couleurs et de toute les préférences sexuelles. 
Tout ce qu'il faut faire c'est de consommer ce qui est nécessaire et de veiller à ce que nos déchets soient traités et recyclés correctement. 
Les religions sont les bienvenues. Croyez en ce que vous voulez. N'imposez pas de règles aux autres.
Tout le monde mérite d'être libre, en bonne santé et heureux !
🙏

“More than one in 10 Americans — around 40 million of us — stopped attending church in the last 25 years,” reported Christianity Today. “There’s no denying the decline in church attendance.” But there is denying it. Focus on the Family argues that stories about evangelical church decline are a “myth” promoted by liberals and that “liberal churches are hemorrhaging members” while “biblical churches are holding strong,” growing or even exploding. In May, the Southern Baptist Convention, America’s largest evangelical denomination, reported losing 457,371 members from 2021 to 2022, its “largest single-year numerical drop in more than 100 years,” according to the SBC’s Lifeway Research. “In total, Southern Baptist churches have suffered membership declines of about 3% annually the past three years.” “Despite what you may hear, conservative, evangelical churches are, in fact, growing.” Yet in July, Focus on the Family again promoted its contrary claim: “On the surface, it may appear that Americans are leaving the pews in droves. And there is some truth to that. However, that’s not the whole truth. Some churches are losing members. But it is actually the more liberal churches that are dying. … Despite what you may hear, conservative, evangelical churches are, in fact, growing.”
This is a lie that evangelicals had been telling for a while but the evidence now clearly shows evangelical churches are now also in decline and have been for years. (According to one account, evangelical decline just started later than main Protestant denominations'.)
“White evangelicals should panic,” wrote the late Michael Gerson, who decried the great dechurching in a 2019 column: “About 26% of Americans 65 and older identify as white evangelical Protestants. Among those ages 18 to 29, the figure is 8%. Why this demographic abyss does not cause greater panic — panic concerning the existence of evangelicalism as a major force in the United States — is a mystery and a scandal.” Focus on the Family promotes panic about many cultural trends. Why no panic about evangelical church trends?
Turns out evangelical leaders *are* panicking. Which is part of the reason they are trying to de-emphasize their anti-LGBTQ bigotry -- to where some LGBTQ people only find out how hateful their church is toward them *years* after they started attending.
But with churches closing all over, evangelicals often feel they can't afford to reject anyone -- which is why many evangelical churches now are unwilling to admit to new parishioners that they are non-affirming.
(I wonder how clear Tim Keller's Redeemer Presbyterian Church ever was about that to new members?)
