It's amazing to me that a major corporation can purchase the rights to a very popular character you've known all your life, and then when they create something "for a modern audience," you fail to recognize the character at all.

Yet, people turned on "Clarkson's Farm," never having met any of the ancillary characters, and yet you feel like you've known them all your life. You relate to them in a big way, and you realize that even if the show didn't have half the budget it did, you'd probably still watch it because you actually feel something for these people.

A billion dollars doesn't buy relatability. Nobody wants safe and sterile.

“I had no intention of becoming a missionary. I don’t like to go to other places and do new things,” Steve said. “So we went, and it was not a fantastic trip.”

Between the intense heat, power outages, and a few difficult experiences, nothing about the visit made Steve and Olivia eager to return. And yet, God was quietly at work, preparing a path they never expected.

The U.S. military has likely been quietly broadcasting codes for its global encryption network using public GPS for nearly 20 years, turning each satellite into a hidden “numbers station,” according to Steven Murdoch…

That means every device that uses GPS has been receiving hidden government information for years, and nobody outside the military knew it until now.
