What I don't get is Elon is moving Tesla (an EV company) and ExTwitter (a social media company) to Texas, a state that hates EVs, solar power and home battery backup systems and wants to regulate what social media says or not says. Strange bedfellows...

Just click once and wait.

The Jezebel Seal

April 27, 2020
.
.
.
She’s known as one of the truly wicked women of the Bible: Jezebel, the Phoenician wife of Israel’s King Ahab; the pagan power behind the throne; a queen who ordered the death of the Prophet Elijah; a woman who murdered a landowner in order to enlarge Ahab’s private garden; a “whore” who met her prophesied demise after she was thrown from a window and her dead body was eaten by dogs; a royal whose infamous name became synonymous in the New Testament with a pagan, globe-girdling religion.

Archaeology has proved King Ahab to be a historical figure (thanks to the discovery of the Kurkh Monolith). But what about Jezebel?

Jezebel

Well Jezebel, Jezebel, Jezebel Oh Jezebel
God’s done got tired of your wicked ways
The angels in heaven done and numbered your days
Lawd your evil deeds God’s done got tired
Ya got to go to judgment to stand your trial
Ya got to go to judgment to stand your trial
Ya got to go to judgment to stand your trial


Jezebel, Jezebel My God’s talking
He said he’s tired of your evil ways
Well Stop Great God stop still and listen
Listen to the story bout Jezebel
Her sins were so wicked Jehovah got angry
Her soul went leapin and jumpin into hell
Way back yonder in the olden days
John told jezebel about her ways
He said your evil deeds had ruined the land
Repent for the kingdom of God is at hand
She got mad at John cause he told her bout the gospel
Told her servants to boil him in oil
But they tell me God looked from the windows of heaven
Spoke one word and the oil wouldn’t boil
Raised his hand and creation trembled
Stamped his feet and time stood still
Raised his voice and looked down it thundred
John your gonna do my bid


Jezebel, Jezebel, Jezebel Oh Jezebel
God’s done got tired of your wicked ways
The angels in heaven done and numbered your days
Lawd your evil deeds God’s done got tired
Ya got to go to judgment to stand your trial
Ya got to go to judgment to stand your trial
Ya got to go to judgment to stand your trial


Then they tell me John moved through the power of the gospel
Told Jezebel that her time was nigh
On the book of life her days were ended
Her time ran out and she had to die
But the tell me God walked and his footsteps thundered
He moved his head and his eyes flashed fire
Clapped his hands and death came a jumping
Jehovah was angry somebody had to die

Jezebel Oh Jezebel Death came a leaping at Jezebel

Then death came a knocking on Jezebel’s door
Said come on woman ain’t you ready to go
Lawd your evil deeds God’s done got tired
Ya got to go to judgment to stand your trial


Then death came a leaping she jumped into hell
Great God amighty I heard them tell that
Nine days she lay in Jerusalem’s streets
Her flesh was to filthy for the dogs to eat


Jezebel, Jezebel, Jezebel Oh Jezebel
God’s done got tired of your wicked ways
The angels in heaven done and numbered your days
Lawd your evil deeds God’s done got tired
Ya got to go to judgment to stand your trial
Ya got to go to judgment to stand your trial
Ya got to go to judgment to stand your trial

As performed by Doyle Lawson.

several people have been caught vandalizing Waymo's robotaxis (driverless cars) - in CA

I think it has to do with frustration with and/or fear of new tech

I won't be vandalizing any Waymos - but -

I have to admit I have some fear of new tech - I'm old - right now I'm ok - but in 10 years if I'm still here - I dunno

All kinds of things get trashed and vandalized in CA. It is the low class of society out there, not new tech.

No end in sight..

'Anti-Israel rioters burn US flag, attempt to breach Capitol Police line as Netanyahu addresses Congress'



Expect more enabling speeches from Harris and Biden condemning Islamophobia.

Lowering the US flag and raising the Palestinian flag in its place.
