I came across this new song and devotional and thought Easter was a good time to share it.

Grab
https://www.youtube.com/shorts/uONcND8KQE8
For years the "Grab 'em..." quote by Trump has been used to "prove" that Trump sexually assaulted women. Dan regularly uses this straw man. As Rachel Wilson demonstrate in this clip, the quote isn't what people want it to be.
The simple reality is that rich, powerful, high status, men attract some women who are willing to trade sexual access for access to the wealth, power, status of these men. We see it across all walks of life. Actors, politicians, athletes, producers, and CEOs are the types of people who attract some of this type of women.
Some men choose to take advantage of this reality, and some don't. The question would seem to be whether or not the "fault" lies with the man who might take advantage of this situation, or the woman who allows or offers sexual access for personal gain?
One could argue that there is an evolutionary aspect to this. High status men draw young, attractive, potentially fertile women to them which (from and evolutionary perspective) allows them to potentially have many more offspring and spread their genetic linage more broadly.
The final question becomes whether or not this behavior is good or moral. If, and many contend, morality is subjective then the morality of this behavior will be judged subjectively. If there is a universal moral standard, then the behavior might be judged differently based on what that standard might be.
Noting the reality that some women will use their sexual attractiveness to gain access to rich, powerful, high status men and the corresponding reality that some of those men will take advantage of that reality, doesn't automatically imply approval of disapproval of the behavior. It's just noting the reality.
The question of whether or not a man who (theoretically) might take advantage of this reality should be considered for certain roles or positions is another question entirely.

Astrophysist, That Probably Means Pretty Smart, Right?
https://substack.com/@sarahsalviander/note/c-233795853
" As an astrophysicist, the more I learned about the universe, the harder it became to believe it was all just an accident.
These five powerful, science-based arguments dismantled my lifelong atheism—and convinced me that the cosmos points to something far greater: a transcendent Intelligence behind it all."

" If God is truly God, then He doesn’t exist to be understood, He exists to be worshiped.
The moment you think you can fully explain Him, you’ve reduced Him to something less than divine."

Seems like the ROP is pretty hateful. Oh and brainwashed as well.
"If the law of the land is Islamic, we will respect it"
I guess that says it all doesn't it.
Make The Great Salt Lake Great Again (MTGSLGA)
https://www.fox13now.com/news/local-news/northern-utah/trump-requests-1-billion-to-restore-protect-great-salt-lake-governor-says
Having spent some time at Antelope Island and the Great Salt Lake, I can see why this should be a priority. Although, I am quite sure that the Dan's of the world will find some reason to bitch about this .
Climatey Sciencey Stuff 2.0

"A new study finds no abnormal warming across Antarctica or the high southern latitudes - none in the past 12,000 years. Using advanced ice core analysis, researchers show temperatures have varied naturally through the Holocene with no sustained warming trend. The slight rise noted from 1950 to 1990 falls entirely within natural variability, just 0.2C to 0.3C. Key Antarctic climate indices (the Southern Annular Mode, Zonal Wave 3 and Indian Ocean Dipole) all remain stable and within natural bounds. Antarctica is not warming abnormally, as the headlines claim. If anything, the data show cooling since 1990."

"NASA satellites confirm that we are seeing the biggest expansion of global greening in modern history. CO2 is driving a wave of new plant life northwards into the formerly barren wastelands of the northern boreal forests. These are the perennially snow covered landscapes of the Taiga and the tundra. Combined, it forms the greatest living and carbon-sequestering biome on the planet. NASA's latest update of VIIRS vegetation data (from March 17, 2026) also provides higher-resolution 'proof' of this green explosion, showing that tundra 'greenness' just hit its third-highest level in 26 years."
