3. Bill Kristol occasionally makes sense.
4. Rod Serling is narrating your life.
5. This news story almost slips by without you noticing….

So apparently this is a real thing that happened:
Hundreds gather at church for blessing ceremony featuring AR-15’s
The Rev. Sean Moon, who leads the church, prayed for "a kingdom of peace police and peace militia where the citizens, through the right given to them by almighty God to keep and bear arms, will be able to protect one another and protect human flourishing."
Moon is the son of the late Rev. Sun Myung Moon, a self-proclaimed messiah who founded the Unification Church, which critics regard as a cult. The younger Moon's congregation is a breakaway faction of the Unification Church, which had distanced itself from Wednesday's event.
Too weird even for the Moonies. Presumably they read from the Book of Gunesis and/or Rifleations, and posted a notice in the church bullet-in.
The Onion wept.
Are we close to the part now where the Enterprise/The Doctor/Those Meddling Kids get us back to our own universe? Please?

From your humble (if antisocial) diarist:
In Hunter’s diary Immediately after Parkland, internet conspiracy theorists set to work to attack the survivors, progressive2016 has a thoughtful comment on the young survivors-turned-activists, and how they’re upending stereotypes about their generation.
In wagatwe’s diary Roy Moore: allegedly broke and begging for donations to fund his legal defense against a victim, SemDem had an excellent idea.
