“Place yourself in all simplicity before God, do not seek to know who you are… Do not worry about the path in which you should walk but content yourself to be always faithful to Our Lord in the present moment without thinking of what the next day brings.” -Ven. Francis Libermann

Minutes before this incident, Fr. Molinari preached the following in his homily:
“All of us are going to die. Sometimes the time we have spent on things has far less meaning than the time we spend with God, the quality time we give to God, to our brothers and sisters, to our husbands, wives, children and families. That is the time best spent.”
Eternal rest grant unto him, O Lord, and let perpetual light shine upon him. May his soul, and the souls of all the faithful departed, through the mercy of God, rest in peace. Amen.

I didn't realize it was a Catholic school board doing this. That makes it even worse. Can't we be sensitive to past harms while also stating the facts? How important or unimportant is truth?

Hey @MLB - wanna get more kids watching baseball?
Maybe start with the commercials.
Watching the playoffs tonight with my kids and here's the rundown:
- Megan Fox selling ED pills in a red bodysuit
- The scariest movie trailer you've ever seen
- Sydney Sweeney in zero clothes promoting betting on sports
Leagues can't figure out why kids don't watch.
You don't need a Nickelodeon game. You're not the Savannah Bananas.
Just show baseball in a way I can leave on in my house.

Dear friends, during some recent medical examinations, the doctors found a small, localized nodule in my lung. It was detected at a very early stage and is well-localized. The doctors believe that it is best to intervene, so, following their advice, I have decided to undergo surgery to remove it. The operation is already scheduled to take place in the coming days. I thank you for your spiritual closeness and entrust myself to your prayers.

White Guilt is in the Top 10 in documentaries for new releases!
In the top 40 (currently 34th place) for best selling documentaries. As you can see we're going up against films with major distributors and its just me with White Guilt. So thank you for your support! You make this possible. Please continue to spread the word.
Watch White Guilt tonight! Please leave a review or come here to X or social media and let us know that you think. See screening options below.
Read the book and bought the doc. Really well done @Hebro_Steele, watched it tonight and it provoked a lot of conversation. No sugar coating of the past while looking honestly at where we are today. Critical thinkers will enjoy and the rest will despise. Great work.

This is a qualified victory, but a real one. If assisted suicide had been expanded to the mentally ill, thousands of people struggling with depression, anxiety, and scores of other conditions would have qualified for a lethal injection--and taken it.
As someone who knows and loves many people who struggle with mental illness and would have qualified, I am very grateful. The fight to protect Canada's vulnerable continues.
Sean Fraser @SeanFraserMP has announced that Canada will scrap the expansion of MAiD for mental illness BUT will legalise “advance directives” for MAiD.

This is an old story. A post-1960s story. France is now running the American white guilt formula.
We know how this grift works. White guilt is black power. The "oppressed" black and minority leaders sell victimhood for power. The "oppressor" whites buy their innocence with deference, programs and lower expectations. Both sides get what they want, except the children, who are mere pawns.
So this mayor stands with students blockading their own school and tells the cameras that violence can be legitimate, just as Black Lives Matter activists called the 2020 looting reparations. He is selling their grievance, expecting France to buy it out of the terror of being called colonial and racist.
No matter what France does, it loses. Every attempt to restore order becomes a new grievance for the "oppressed," and they will never give it up, because it is the only power they have. The white guilt elites only care about their innocence. After all, they see their own nation as the oppressor. So the decline continues.
That is why white guilt is the most destructive force in America and the West.

I predict the Liberals will scrap the expansion of MAID for mental illness as a sole condition while moving to legalize death for dementia by expanding MAID by advance request nationwide.
Persons with dementia are becoming the newest target of Canada's MAID regime.

I recently learned that the entire country of Canada has fewer MRI machines than the state of Pennsylvania, despite having 3x the population.
That's wild... The median time for a scan is over 4 months. 💀

Why men -- especially conservative men -- won't go to therapy:
The weird thing about the American Psychological Association (APA) is that every objective observer has known that it's been ideologically captured by the Left since the 1970s.
That's the main reason why the Association for Psychological Science split off back in 1988, to form a more-scientific, less-politicized version of APA.
Yet, here we are, 40 years later -- with APA still the main accrediting body that gives its seal of approval to PhD programs that train the vast majority of licensed clinical psychologists in America.
APA sets the agenda. It determines what gets covered in graduate courses. It runs the most influential journals and conferences. It sets the whole political and ideological tone for psychological research. For decades, it has pushed political correctness, 'affirmative action', wokeness, DEI, and Leftist political causes.
APA also ignores, censors, and/or demonizes the psychological research areas that are politically incorrect, but that replicate well (e.g. intelligence research, behavior genetics, evolutionary psychology, sex differences).
There are alternatives. For example, the Psychological Clinical Science Accreditation System (PCSAS) focuses more on the real science -- evidence-based treatments and interventions -- rather than on the Leftist activism of APA.
But, for the moment, the APA's ideological agenda still dominates American clinical psychology.
This partly explains the feedback loop between clinical psychology becoming so feminized (with women getting about 80% of clinical psychology PhDs), and clinical psychology becoming so radical-Leftist in its politics.
And it explains why it's pretty difficult to find licensed clinical psychologists who are actually sympathetic to men, conservatives, and/or Christians.
This is one big reason why men won't go to therapy -- they don't want to deal with a (probably female, probably liberal) therapist who has been indoctrinated into wokeness for 5-6 years throughout her graduate training.

Disastrous policies have disastrous consequences.
A Canadian company, Psiphon, built software that helps people in authoritarian countries get around censorship. Now it says it may have to leave Canada 🇨🇦
The reason: Bill C-22 would require telecoms and internet providers to build surveillance and monitoring capabilities into their systems for police and CSIS.
When privacy tools say they can't operate safely here, that's worth paying attention to.
Tech exodus begins, as predicted.

My daughter asked me who the best pitcher of all time was. I’m a bit stumped to be honest. Did anyone have a better prime than “the left hand of God,” Sandy Koufax? How advanced was the heat of Bob Feller? Nobody even pretends anyone will tough the wins record of Cy Young. How would you answer it?
Reminds me of a movie
The whole point of building Tavus has been simple: talking to a machine should feel as natural as talking to a friend or coworker.
It’s hard to describe all the tiny nuances that make a conversation feel human. The little expressions. Moving around in your chair. Knowing when to speak and when to listen. The dance of it all.
Griffin is by far the closest anyone has come to a model that can capture those nuances. The first time I saw it being used, I had no idea I was watching our model rather than just a normal video call.
I’m so incredibly proud of this team and what they’ve built.

There are two principal ways for a country to grow its population: through natural population growth or through immigration.
Canada’s fertility rate has fallen to 1.26, far below the replacement level of approximately 2.1.
Before talking about increasing Canada’s population, we should be asking some fundamental questions:
1. Why are Canadians having fewer children?
2. Why has life become so unaffordable?
3. And how do we address the growing pressures on our health care, housing, education and other essential infrastructure?
Responsible and balanced immigration has always played an important role in Canada. But immigration should not become a substitute for addressing the affordability pressures that are making it increasingly difficult for Canadians to start and raise a family.

In fairness, defenders of abortion have a nuanced position: they support the death penalty, but only for the innocent.

In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.
