Got like half a month to figure out if I'm doing anything meaningful for Pride Month.

Something other than taking a very long nap. (Not a euphemism, just tired.)

To be crystal clear: “security guarantees to Russia” is a euphemism for providing Ru w carte blanche to interfere, dominate, and, if it deems necessary, invade Eastern Europe. The language of “security” has provided a cover for Ru imperialism since 1991! It needs to stop. No one is threatening Ru!

if we get to take back "Evangelical" so it means what it used to and not be a euphemism for "Fundamentalist" that would be swell. But "gospel Christian" isn't any more descriptive for these old-testament forward hacks, let them find their own buzz words
