Identifying and attracting high capacity donors to your organization can be a challenge as it requires intentionality and biblical direction. Our team would be honored to help you build a High Capacity Donor strategy. Schedule a free consultation with Generis’ Total Advancement Solutions Team today ~ There is plenty of unused land in the Atlanta area where APD could build the facility. It does not need to be on an old growth forest. #StopCopCity ~ What was Lily Munster’s maiden name on the television show, The Munsters? Dracula was Lily Munster’s maiden name on the television show, The Munsters. She was born in 1827 to Sam Dracula (Grandpa) and his 166th wife (referred to only as “Grandma”). She used to live in Transylvania with her grand parents. But, she fell in love with Herman Munster in Transylvania, married him in 1865. She, Grandpa, and Herman moved to America sometime before the mid-1940s and adopted her sister’s child, Marilyn. In the mid-1950s she gave birth to Eddie, she and Herman’s only child ~ Hermen Eutic changed his name to Herman Munster, because Lily Dracula would did not want to be Lily Eutic ~ so i have this nerdy project … i enjoy it, but nobody else will understand or care … i have this faux stained glass pictures. before i make them, i design them. when finished, i photograph them… when i want to design a new one, i often go into the old design files, to copy what i have done before. … i usually don’t know where anything is. … what i am doing today is cross-referencing the post production pictures with the pre- production design files … like i said, it is great fun, but strictly a solo project ~ @Talkmaster Has the AJC stopped publishing printed issues every day? If not, it’s only a matter of time. @chamblee54 does this mean the AJC will quit the free, unrequested home deliveries? many of those free fishwrappers get washed into the street, run over, and turned into paper mache’ ~ @robkhenderson Researchers gave teenage girls infant simulators (lifelike dolls), thinking if the girls realized how annoying babies are, they’d be less likely to get pregnant. Instead, girls who took care of infant simulators were more likely to later become pregnant ~ Lily Dracula was born in 1605 to Count Dracula and an unnamed mother in Transylvania and she had an older brother named Lester Dracula. In the mid 1800s, she fell in love with Herman Munster and moved to America with him and resides at Munster Mansion with him ~ Viewing the facts in the light most favorable to Benjamin, we conclude that Thomas’s actions were reasonable under the rapidly evolving circumstances he faced. Considering the Graham factors out of turn, the second factor, whether Jayvis posed an immediate threat to Thomas’s safety, weighs strongly in Thomas’s favor. After Thomas discovered Jayvis’s crashed vehicle, Thomas approached the car and directed Jayvis to remain inside. Instead of remaining in the car as directed, Jayvis climbed out of the vehicle’s window and began to advance toward Thomas. Thomas repeatedly instructed Jayvis to stop, get down, and get back in the car. But Jayvis did not comply. Instead, he continued advancing toward Thomas while yelling and waving his arms and then struck Thomas. How close Jayvis was to Thomas when Thomas fired the fatal shot is a matter of dispute, but the evidence, when viewed in Benjamin’s favor, indicates that Jayvis was roughly six feet away from Thomas. Jayvis’s distance from Thomas does not disturb our conclusion that Thomas reasonably believed that Jayvis posed an immediate threat to his safety. ~ Undergraduate Mathematics Education as a White, Cisheteropatriarchal Space and Opportunities for Structural Disruption to Advance Queer of Color Justice ~ Logics and Mechanisms of Instruction that Reinforce Undergraduate Calculus as a Racialized and Gendered Experience for Historically Marginalized Populations in STEM ~ Forgive me if I have asked this before. Why did APD need to build their facility at the old prison farm? Isn’t there other land they could have used for this? ~ Students study primary source documents to understand the philosophical underpinnings of the American Republic and the root cause of American exceptionalism. ~ “and it changed my life.” ~ $666m doesn’t buy as many quality politicians as it used to. ~ @MurphyAJC The Georgia campaigns in 2022 cost *at least* $650 million. We’re now spending more money on political campaigns than on the problems we’re electing candidates to solve. 😡 #gapol ~ Saddam Hussein Becomes Next Hitler ~ growing up we never had ~ archive (Bush Library) Gulf War: USE Baghdad to Washington (Saddam’s message of friendship to George Bush) 1990 Jul 25 [declassified 1998] ~ Pictures for the first twenty three of 2023 are from the The Library of Congress.

there is controversy now about how to deal with the legacy of the Confederacy. There are comparisons to how Germany deals with the legacy of the Third Reich, which are not very helpful. My question: How does France today see Napoleon Bonaparte? His regime was over 200 years ago. Does France see that as a messy part of history, or are they still fighting about it? ~ And a recent book by a couple of queer theorists, called Bad Gays, includes Roy Cohn, Ernst Röhm, Lawrence of Arabia and Hadrian! I was disappointed they only gave me a shoutout as a “professional Bad Gay,” for “When Plagues End.” In their earlier podcast, they placed me somewhere near Röhm in my fathomless gay evil. I’ve been demoted. ~ @houmanhemmati Today, @uscsocialwork sent out this letter announcing that they will no longer use the word “field” (as in “conducting field work”) because it’s perceived as racist. Is this with merit or empty virtue signaling? ~ @lizzo This may be a random time to say this but it’s on my heart.. cancel culture is appropriation. There was real outrage from truly marginalized people and now it’s become trendy, misused and misdirected. I hope we can phase out of this & focus our outrage on the real problems. ~ @RuPaul Derogatory slurs are ALWAYS an outward projection of a person’s own poisonous self-loathing ~ writing in all caps is yelling, we don’t need to talk more we need to listen more, you are entitled to your opinion, science is about doubt and experiments not trust, you don’t have to be a jackass, it is not what you say but how you say it ~ my computer has hundreds of music folders. in a wide variety of genres. many of folders I have no idea what they are. I am going through my collection, and weeding out folders that I will NEVER listen to. How many radio broadcasts of Tom Waits do I need? ~ @AlexBerenson 1/ For those of you who’d rather see the whole Gottlieb #TwitterFiles in a thread… here goes! On August 27, 2021, Dr. Scott Gottlieb – a Pfizer director with over 550,000 Twitter followers – saw a tweet he didn’t like, a tweet that might hurt sales of Pfizer’s mRNA vaccines. ~ More of the Hollywood’s Eve series is available.two ~ George Orwell, Facing Unpleasant Facts: Narrative Essays “that however much you deny the truth, the truth goes on existing, as it were, behind you back.” ~ This change aligns with the Council on Social Work Education Advancing Antiracism in Social Work Education through Educational Accreditation Policies and Standards, the 2021 National Association of Social Work’s commitment to undoing racism through social work, and the Eliminate Racism Grand Challenge for Social Work ~ @markniesse A performance review of Fulton County elections operations recommended against a state takeover Friday, finding that the county has made “significant improvement” since the 2020 election year. ~ @wildethingy The only thing necessary for the triumph of stupidity is for clever people to spend all their time arguing with them on social media. ~ republican tit logic consumes comical explicit speaker ~ mute your microphone so your extra noise, does not pollute the poet girls and boys, new york drops a pass on third down spin, making it likely for minnesota to win, freedom to be a loving peaceful dude, there is nothing cool about being rude, bald headed coach is hollering foul, if his defense fails he is going to growl, product commercial is a deadly blue screen, paying the bills to go make the scene ~ pictures today are from The Library of Congress. ~ selah

I was posting my first weekly report of 2023, and something was horribly askew. It turns out I left a > out of a line of code, and it fucked everything up ~ I have heard the line about the caged bird for years, but never read the poem that inspired it. It turns out the Ms. Angelou is not talking about a privileged white man expressing his wonderful thoughts on the information superhighway. I might need to find another metaphor ~ @JonathanLKrohn Local health insurance ad warns viewers to be aware of “the three Ps.” *snickers* Johnathan Krohn has a story. When he was 12, he gave speeches at right wing meetings, and became a celebrity for a few minutes. Today, he is twenty something, and is a professional journalist. He currently identifies as queer ~ the adjective scale goes descriptive, comparative, superlative … good better best … i am not sure which one is applies to normal ~ Harijan was also a newspaper that started on 11 February 1933, brought out by Gandhi from Yerwada Jail during the British rule in India. Gandhi popularized the term Harijan across the states of India but he was not the first person to use it. ~ “That leaves yellow, the Esperanto of emoji skin tones, which seems to offer an all-purpose or neutral form of pictographic expression, one that does not require an acknowledgment of race—or, for that matter, embodiment. … The yellow emoji feels almost like claiming, “I don’t see race,” that dubious shibboleth of post-racial politics, in which the ostensible desire to transcend racism often conceals a more insidious desire to avoid having to contend with its burdens.” ~ @chamblee54 The persian king asked his advisor for some words he could say on all occasions. The answer was “these things too shall pass away.” … This was before LOL. ~ 🩱 one thing about this morning is I have learned how to negotiate the emoji table … instead of scrolling endlessly, i can click on an icon to go directly to underwear ~ English would be well served to find another way of expressing apathy, rather than saying “I don’t give a damn/shit/fuck.” ~ The Biden Administration is basically taking the trade policy of Donald Trump and running it through grammar checker ~ This is repulsive. This is the headline on youtube:”Sean McDermott: Damar Hamlin sad news from hospital, Buffalo Bills Head Coach – LIVE,” When the man finally speaks, it is mostly what players are injured, and how next Sunday’s game is going to go. The name Damar Hamlin has not been mentioned. This is what is in the youtube show notes: “Tesla & Elon Musk are sponsoring this live stream. Join the crypto giveaway by Elon Musk. As explained in the live stream: Double your Bitcoin & Ethereum within 0-5 minutes. Send 0.1+ BTC & receive 0.2+ BTC Send 1+ ETH & receive 2+ ETH Over 430 BTC & 3,900 ETH have been sent to our live stream viewers.” Gross ~ @chamblee54 I have always held that social justice, even to the least and lowliest, is impossible of attainment by force. Harijan (20 April 1940) p. 97 ~ @benaveryisgood Every smart guy will tell you the news isn’t real, and then have endless opinions on it ~ @chamblee54 it is an old line about opinions and a certain body part … twitter does not want me specify … but the truth is that most people only have one “shipping and receiving department” ~ pictures today are from The Library of Congress. ~ selah

What is happening with twitter is a shame. I enjoy seeing what you think, and even agree on occaison. I think the blogging format is obsolete. The tweet below is one story. @chamblee54 I got in a facebook spat about #Joerogan. I wrote a blog post about how I felt. The facebook contact deleted the link I left to the post. A week later I looked in my blog stats. NOBODY had looked at the post. “Why does the caged bird sing?” ~ This is a repost from 2019. ~ you have probably seen this popup ad. The man getting fucked makes youtube videos under his porn-actor name, Richie West. He claims to have quit making “adult” movies, and talks about God. His videos are increasingly boring. ~ whenever I see @politico I am reminded that they got me interested in the #paulpelosi story … they said mr. pelosi was charging his phone in the bathroom, so when a home invader excused him, he called 911 ~ The Racist Roots of Gun Control – Sedgwick County › media › the-ra… The historical record provides compelling evidence that racism underlies gun control laws — and not in any subtle way.

Or whatever. We really don’t give a shit. Just try not to piss on Dennis. he’s being a cranky bitch today cuz his kid died Enjoy arbys ~ This is a repost from 2022. The Freedom to Vote: John R. Lewis Act failed to pass after a Senate fillibuster. ~ @GAFollowers Waffle House brawl on Christmas. ~ I got in a facebook spat about #Joerogan. I wrote a blog post about how I felt. The facebook contact deleted the link I left to the post. A week later I looked in my blog stats. NOBODY had looked at the post. “Why does the caged bird sing?” ~ Just my opinion … my only expense is my time. I have to do something, so it won’t hurt me to produce my content. If your podcast has expenses, that is something to consider. The caged bird does not pay for the ability to sing. ~ “Yet when Paine died, only six people showed up at his funeral. The paltry obit that was published at the time summed up his life in this line: “He had lived long, did some good and much harm.”” ~ there was this young poc at the gym, i am guessing India … he was across from me at the weight machine, standing up … you could see the shape of his dick, in just the proper place for it to be (except for my mouth) … later he was in the sauna, and has a tasteful amount of hair on his chest ~ banished words 2023 1. GOAT 2. Inflection point 3. Quiet quitting 4. Gaslighting 5. Moving forward 6. Amazing 7. Does that make sense? 8. Irregardless 9. Absolutely 10. It is what it is ~ When I googled this, the only thing to appear are news reports. I had to use DuckDuckGo to get the actual link. I posted this on Twitter. So far, Elon’s watchdogs have not had any objections. ~ @lexfridman 1 A book a week seems a bit ambitious. I wonder how much each book will sink in. 2 This is the intellectual version of posting a picture of your dinner. ~ a list of things I should have known by now or a dream you want to live forever, when do i pay attention, and when do i ignore, when to push my deteriorating body, and when to baby myself, why do people push their weird ideas, why are beliefs such a thing no other animal, that i know of, will kill you because of your thoughts, who are they these are the people behind the conspiracies and prospiracies, they are all evil and working against me, and now people are claiming they as their pronoun are the pronoun theys the same as the conspiracy they, where do the cars in traffic jams come from. daddy used to say they are popping up out of the ground, but i have never seen this hole, i have done who why when and where, so i need to know something about what, is fuck the honorary title of what, as in what the fuck? what is the fuck? is it an increasingly rare moment of sexual gentitration, or is it one of the other assorted uses for the english translation of fik, which is what the nazi prison guard lady said in a lina wertmuller movie, and the substitle said fuck, why would you give a fuck, much less a damn or a shit. when you give a shit, do you gift wrap it. if you give a fuck, you damn well better wrap it, gift or no gift, maybe the english language should have a better way of expressing apathy. a fuck is valuable, a shit is worthless and smelly, and a damn is merely confusing. maybe you should keep the damn, and not give the lake behind it ~ pictures for this first weekly report of 2023 are from The Library of Congress. ~ selah

Moore County Sheriff Ronnie Fields … said they have not been able to make a connection to a Saturday night drag queen show at Sunrise Theater in downtown Southern Pines after state and federal investigators looked into the rumor that started online. Earlier in the day Saturday, protesters had gathered outside the theater, upset about a drag show planned for the small venue later that night. The drag show started at 7 p.m. and was underway when the power went out. … Emily Grace Rainey, an outspoken opponent of the drag show, posted an invitation on her Facebook page to the protest at the theater. After the lights went out, Rainey, who became known in Moore County during the pandemic for her opposition to mask mandates, posted on Facebook that, “The power is out in Moore County and I know why.” Without naming her, Fields indicated in Sunday’s press conference that the information Rainey posted online was “false.” He said officers “had to go and interview this young lady and have a word of prayer with her, but it turned out to be nothing.” Fields confirmed on Facebook that the Moore County Sheriff’s Office had come to her house to ask about the outage. “I welcomed them to my home,” wrote Rainey, who organized a group of Moore County residents to travel to Washington on January 6, 2021. “Sorry they wasted their time. I told them that God works in mysterious ways and is responsible for the outage. I used the opportunity to tell them about the immoral drag show and the blasphemies screamed by its supporters.” Rainey said, “I told them God is chastising Moore County, thanked them for coming, and wished them a good night. Thankful for the LEOs service, as always.” ~ This is a repost from 2019. Grady High School is now known as Midtown. The public health care system is still known as Grady.

I doubt he said it in one of his movies. @QuoteResearch .@TylerMahanCoe ~ “The newspapers, debauched by the war fever, have given up all effort to get at the facts, and the radio continues day and night the great moral business of making the ignorant more ignorant and the crazy crazier.” HL Mencken ~ “Kanye West is no threat to the Jews” ~ “two words you should never put together if you want to succeed in life, the and Jews” ~ pics for this pre-solstice ramification are from The Library of Congress. ~ selah

i just had my first adventure of the day. A phone line fell off the pole, into the street. It is four houses south, which will become important later. When I called ATT, they would not accept the address I gave them, but assigned the job ticket to my house. The tech called this morning, and I told him the story. I went down to chat with him when he arrived. He is a super friendly black man. We chit chatted for a bit, he cut the wire, and went on his way. ~ The word is that Jesus paid the price for the sins of mankind. Is 44 hours in a cave enough? When you consider the lies, murders, and fornications, you have to wonder. Maybe Jesus is taking the place of man in hell, paying the price for your sins. ~ i was in a writing workshop. the prompt was to write about your past, and use the word shadow … this post rambled into a place you have fond memories of … shadow comes from a big family, with a lot of brothers. John Doe. Play Doe. Dosee Doe. Is this the past, or is the past a present? … A musician, with the stage name John Doe, plays in a band called X. I saw them one night at the moonshadow saloon, on johnson road between briarcliff and north highland. That is another shadow. X was a hard rock band, so Dosee Doe might have taken the night off. The moonshadow was next to a veteran liquor store. This legacy liquor emporium was on the fulton side of the county line, which was a very profitable location when Dekalb was a dry county. One night i went in this store, bought a single kobir, and the man at the checkout offered me a church key to open it with. The law took a dim view of this. Another time, i drove by this store, and one of the letters had gone dark on the sign. I can’t remember which one. It might have been the r, making it a liquo store, or maybe it was the li, and the sold quors inside. Moonshadow saloon is now a place where emory university parks shuttle busses overnight, or some sort of vehicle for hire. ~ @BenBurgis🧵 Conservatives say many ridiculous things about the Taibbi tweets about Twitter censorship because conservatives say ridiculous things about everything. It’s who they are. But: ~ @chamblee54 @benburgis I remember the day this broke. I had mailed in my absentee ballot, and wanted to hear no more about the election from hell. Then, I saw that @NYDailyNews had a story suppressed. My curiosity was aroused. ~ @chamblee54 I remember when #HunterBidenLaptop story broke. I had mailed in my ballot, and wanted to hear no more about the election. I saw that @NYDailyNews had a story suppressed. My curiosity was aroused. If the story had gotten out without fuss, it would have been quickly forgotten. ~ @FreeSpeech4Moi Replying to @chamblee54 and @ggreenwald “The media certainly would have attempted to “forget” it, as they are doing now with the #FTX crime/money laundering/funneling to the Democrats And the potential collusion with the DNC to ‘donate’ to weak Republicans in the primaries. #SBF_FTX said he only cared abt primaries” ~ “potential collusion with the DNC to ‘donate’ to weak Republicans in the primaries.” This line caught my eye.

Forrest. “That war produced two geniuses, Lincoln and Forrest.” “In this house we don’t think too much of Mr. Lincoln.” ~ @ProfBrianKalt Your annual reminder that the turkeys the president pardoned can still be prosecuted for state charges ~ @chamblee54 What if people were as proud of their ability to listen, as they are of the clever things they say? ~ There is something intimidating about the blank slate, the tabula rasa, the empty white page. The white serves as the background, while the black characters transmit the message. Unless it is a black screen, with white letters, in which case the dynamic is reversed. I should think about this sunday. I took the weekly reading of the water meter, and saw that we had a good week, water comsumption wise. I did a load of laundry, and had a lovely breeze filled day to dry the clothes. The falcons lost, which should surprise nobody. I went walking at the river, and angered my friend by walking too slow. These things too shall pass away. There was an attack ad on the radio for the senate race. I was trying to remember it later, and don’t know who it was for. I think it was pro-herschel, because it said a lot of rude … and pointless … things about senator warlock… warnock … but did not mention the name of the republican alternative. I am rather discouraged about this election. Both men are puppets, who will do what their sponsors tell them to do. The democrats persuaded Christian Walker to trash his father, which made me very very sad. I have heard some sermons by senator warnock, and he says some things that make my skin crawl. I am going to have to hold my nose when i vote. The voting takes place in the cafetorium of ashford park school, where i attended classes… i have held my nose in there many times before ~ @chamblee54 What would have happened if the HB laptop story had come out, and the actors had not tried to suppress it? It was October 2020. Most voters were over the election. Just release the story, and let it die ~ @chamblee54 I want to know why those bomb charges against #AndyAldrich were dismissed. His grandfather is a politician. Someone with influence made very serious charges go away ~ @chamblee54 Would a second Trump administration have been so aggressive in promoting the vaccine? I think it was the established government at work, and the party of the POTUS made little difference. ~ pictures for this post turkey day turkey are from The Library of Congress. ~ selah
