👀 The 7.8 magnitude earthquake that struck Mindanao caused parts of the seabed to rise by as much as 2 metres and the coastline has reportedly moved out by around 200 metres. The sudden uplift has exposed coral reefs, seagrass and marine habitats, leaving sea life stranded and causing damage to the underwater ecosystem. Officials found exposed coral and dead marine animals along affected areas. It’s incredible to think about the force needed to physically lift the seabed out of the ocean like this. 📷 DENR Soccsksargen

Musk wouldn't be a trillionaire without taxpayer-funded federal contracts and taxpayer-funded early-stage grants. Our children, grandchildren, & great-grandchildren will be paying the debt for decades so that Musk can be a trillionaire today. It's immoral and bad for America.

Where you choose to worship is a reflection of your beliefs, and the church in which you worship. We should always ask ourselves if the message and mission of the church aligns with the message and mission of Jesus.

Incarnation is ultimately louder than declaration. It's why Jesus didn't merely announce the kingdom, but embodied it. It’s why parents must live what they teach. And it’s why women using their gifts has more eternal influence than debating whether or not they should.

Every human being is worthy by the mere fact of having been willed, created, and loved by God. There is no situation that causes the Lord to turn His gaze away from us. It is a consoling truth that accompanies us at all times and reminds us that His merciful love always outweighs whatever good or evil we may have done. #ApostolicJourney vatican.va/content/leo-xiv/e…

America isn’t in financial trouble because we have to help the poor. We’re in financial trouble because we can’t satisfy the rich.

NEW: Wildfire has closed I-70 in both directions near Glenwood Springs. I-70 is closed between MM 109 and 112 just west of Glenwood because of the Paradise Creek fire, estimated at 15-20 acres. Unfortunately, this fire has rapid growth potential. Hot and windy there. #COwx

Fascism does not arrive saying “I am fascism.” It arrives saying “law and order,” “border security,” “anti-woke,” “election integrity,” and “national emergency.”

At times we experience the night of faith, the weariness of believing, the fatigue of the spirit, a sense of inadequacy in the face of the Gospel’s call, the bitterness of our failures. These nights are a time of blessing and a place for rebirth. #ApostolicJourney

Pedophilia is far more common than any of us want to believe. Ask any woman how old she was the first time she was sexualized.

So, a top referee wasn't allowed to enter the US because he's Somali, immigration officials detained an Iraqi player for hours, FIFA revoked tickets for Iranian fans and officials are harrasing African teams when they arrive in the US. This is some f*ckery infantino is allowing to happen.

They act like the biggest threat to society is a single mom buying soda with food stamps instead of a billionaire buying his 13th senator.

Proud to live in a community where we have “sassy bitches” reporting our news every day. Our country needs more of them.

The older I get, the clearer it becomes: people don’t disappear into gardening, baking, books, and long walks because life got boring. They do it because peace became priceless.

Listen, it's fine if you, as an individual, don't think Mormons are Christian. Or if you don't think Catholics are Christians. Or Protestants. But the GOVERNMENT should not be deciding who is and isn't Christian and THAT is the problem with what the Pentagon did.
