That whole Air album is amazing.

Miserere mei, Deus

Miserere (full title: Miserere mei, Deus, Latin for "Have mercy on me, O God") is a setting of Psalm 51 (Psalm 50 in Septuagint numbering) by Italian composer Gregorio Allegri. It was composed during the reign of Pope Urban VIII, probably during the 1630s, for the exclusive use of the Sistine Chapel during the Tenebrae services of Holy Week, and its mystique was increased by unwritten performance traditions and ornamentation. It is written for three choirs, two of five and four voices respectively, with a third choir singing plainsong responses, each singing alternately and joining to sing the ending in one of the most recognised and enduring examples of polyphony, in this case in a 9-part rendition.

Play music, read a book, draw something, play a game, or watch a movie.

She's beautiful! I love seeing her on my feed, and I'm glad she has a person who loves her as much as you obviously do.

It's also important to note that the bill of rights doesn't say it applies to citizens; it refers to people.

For example:

Amendment V

No person shall be held to answer for a capital, or otherwise infamous crime, unless on a presentment or indictment of a Grand Jury, except in cases arising in the land or naval forces, or in the Militia, when in actual service in time of War or public danger; nor shall any person be subject for the same offence to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb; nor shall be compelled in any criminal case to be a witness against himself, nor be deprived of life, liberty, or property, without due process of law; nor shall private property be taken for public use, without just compensation.

When I used to fix cars for a dealership we would sometimes have the service advisor ask us to do work for free. "Come on, it'll just take you ten minutes!"

I'd tell them that they can do it themselves if it only takes ten minutes. "But I don't know how to do that!"

You're not just paying for the part, you're paying for the knowledge, time, and tools of the technician.

If you haven't read the book, I highly recommend it. It may be my favorite novel.

The Wild Robot is well worth a watch. It looks like a kids movie, but I think the themes work just as well if not better for adults.

DHS said in a statement they this was a "whoopsie," and that he shouldn't have "acted so foreign."

"Man, you kidnap one brown guy and people start freaking out. What's these guys' problem, anyway?"

-satire that is probably being generous to the piggies involved

And when you pray, do not be like the hypocrites, for they love to pray standing in the synagogues and on the street corners to be seen by others. Truly I tell you, they have received their reward in full. But when you pray, go into your room, close the door and pray to your Father, who is unseen. Then your Father, who sees what is done in secret, will reward you.

Matthew 6:5-6

You didn't answer the question, and that's what I'm really interested in.

How does this make our country better?

Maybe you can help me understand how kicking this kid out makes our country better?

I guess we have different values.

I don't see it as a moral good to kick someone out of the country if they would make a good citizen. I don't see it as an economic good to remove a productive member of society. I don't see how the ongoing ICE campaign to instill fear in our immigrant population is good for our communities.

Just because it's the law doesn't make it right.

Wait, I thought conservatives were all about "State's rights?" I'm starting to think that's only a threadbare excuse to do the most racist shit imaginable, because that seems to be the only time that argument is applied.

But think of the CEO who could use a vacation house in Jackson Hole.

They should really call it backthengammon.

To make it worse, naturally.

"Land of the free" sounds like satire.

The mk2 has a cupola and machine gun.

We've all bean there.
