Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for July 25, 2024 is: fealty FEE-ul-tee noun Fealty is an old-fashioned and somewhat literary word that refers to intense loyalty or fidelity to a person, group, etc. More narrowly, fealty refers to the fidelity of a vassal or feudal tenant to their lord. // Authors who inspire such fealty can guarantee a publisher good sales, no matter the quality of the books they write. // Kneeling before the entire court, the knight pledged his fealty to the king. See the entry > Examples: “[Director, Denis] Villeneuve's ‘Dune' movies deserve admiration if only for their fealty and ambition; the filmmaker's respect for [Frank] Herbert's source material radiates from every frame of movies that feel as massive as they are minutely orchestrated.” — Ann Hornaday, The Washington Post, 28 Feb. 2024 Did you know? In The Use of Law, published posthumously in 1629, Francis Bacon wrote, “Fealty is to take an oath upon a book, that he will be a faithful Tenant to the King.” That's a pretty accurate summary of the early meaning of fealty. Early forms of the term were used in Middle English in the early 14th century, when they specifically designated the loyalty of a vassal to a lord. Eventually, the meaning of the word broadened. Fealty can be paid to a country, a principle, or a leader of any kind, though the synonyms fidelity and loyalty are more commonly used. Fealty comes from the Anglo-French word feelté, or fealté, which comes from the Latin noun fidēlitās, meaning “fidelity.” These words come ultimately from fidēs, the Latin word for “faith.”

The greatest quotes and oath from The Knight's Oath of Fealty. The Oath was sworn during a solemn ceremony to showcase loyalty and an act of homage. The Knight's Code was a moral system that governed the knights and filled them with unwavering commitment, honor, duty, and sense of justice. From the solemn vow to the 7 Rules, seek inspiration and journey into the heart of chivalry and knighthood. Let these words and timeless wisdom inspire you to embark on your path and life legacy.

John plays a clip of Trump saying his trial is a witch hunt and a clip of Rep. Dan Goldman explaining why the Republicans in congress want a closed hearing for Hunter Biden. He talks with Rich in Indiana on Henry Kissinger, Tim in Chicago on the groveling of journalists, Brian in Oregon on crappy SCOTUS rulings, and Beachside Bill in Florida on the latest Space X launch. Then Thea Harper returns with the Minority Report. She talks about the importance of black Santa Claus. He also speaks with Stephen in Kentucky on Ellen Burstyn. Next he talks with Katherine in Florida on Mar-a-Lago being a residence or a commercial property, Lisa in New Mexico on Donald Trump's end game, and David in Nevada on the Israel - Hamas War. And finally, Steven in New Mexico and Al in Los Angeles call in to discuss the history of the conflict in Israel, and Dave from Mt.

Service. Fealty. Loyalty. These are the characteristics of subjects to a king. And even though this common code looks different in social, religious, and political arenas, the idea is essentially the same. The top of the hierarchy demands allegiance, and proper honor to a “master” requires it. In Matthew 25, Jesus teaches that while faithfulness to God requires the same level of commitment, the purpose and focus are radically different.
On this week's Fundzerker we will react to an article from The Blaze which reports that women are bringing the men in their lives to see the Barbie movie in order to test these men's loyalty to feminism. Sounds bleak, but perhaps a blessing in disguise, so let's check it out!This show is part of the Spreaker Prime Network, if you are interested in advertising on this podcast, contact us at https://www.spreaker.com/show/4148711/advertisement

Maria and Alice talk about news of the Trump indictment and it's impact on the 2024 GOP primary. The field of Republican challengers initially rallied behind Trump, calling out the DOJ, now some are saying the former president's actions are difficult to defend. Plus - The indictment has been a fundraising boom for Trump and his poll numbers are rising, but what will this mean for the general election? In this week's Meaningful Moment, Alice and Maria share words of inspiration from Richard Montanez, the man behind the new movie "Flamin' Hot," as well as motivation from NBA legend Shaquille O'Neal.

Imagine if you had to pledge fealty to the Chinese state just to buy a bathroom mirror or a lightbulb. Well, there's every chance you already have, but you didn't know about it. Phil Pennington stumbled across this weird little consumer story.
Rundown - Troubadour Dave Gunders - 00:35 "Stranger in a Strange Land" by Dave Gunders - 19:23 Craig comments on Rabbi Rheins' sermon - 25:26 Steve Durham - 50:05 Joe O'Dea - 01:20:04 Rabbi Rheins' Kol Nidre sermon - 01:47:51 OMG. The social posts are disturbing. From Kanye. From 45. From Elon. From the GOP House Judiciary members too. Jews are “death con 3” targets and told to become like Evangelicals "before it is too late." GOP response has been muted. Fealty to 45 or what? Renowned Colorado Rabbi Rick Rheins, wonderful guest on Episode 88, gave this show permission to amplify his Kol Nidre sermon titled Silence is Sinful. The wise Rabbi explains why it is vital to stand up to bigotry, especially now. This podcast does so. GOP stalwart Steve Durham is insistent Colorado students be taught that Nazis were socialists. Steve Durham served Colorado as a state Rep, Senator, and is now on the Board of Education. He also worked for Ronald Reagan. https://co.chalkbeat.org/2022/10/12/23399528/holocaust-education-colorado-nazi-socialist-genocide-social-studies-standards An enlightening discussion follows. Senator Durham and I heard each other out in a respectful manner. History is an important part of making sure deadly errors are identified so they can be avoided. But this show tells the truth. Nazis come from the political right. Joe O'Dea is not a bigot and he goes much further than most in condemning Donald Trump for his bigotry. Last weekend, 45 smeared “American Jews” and “big mouth” Joe O'Dea for insufficient fealty. On national shows and now, going his farthest yet, Joe O'Dea fires back at 45. Troubadour and Host opine about the threat posed by bigots. We discuss Kanye, Pete Davidson, refugees, Billy Joel, and the lyrics behind the Dave Gunders' amazing and timely song, Strangers in a Strange Land. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uPkEJkijPZw
This episode carries content warnings for violence, displacement, insects, and a brief description of a corpse. The Divine Fealty knew what they had seen instantly, identifying it in something before or beyond language. Appropriate, since the Twilight Mirage, once its home, had always been more than just a simple place or a proper noun. It did not matter if their elect, Veronique, could understand what they'd seen in this way, only that she would support Fealty in what must be done. And so, an escape. And so, a kingdom among debris. And so, a kidnapping. And so, a confrontation between Divines. Now wounded, the two Anchors float back in the direction they came from, drawing ever closer to the purple dot in the distance. This week on Friends at the Table: The Road to PALISADE: HOUNDs Pt. 2 Records Recovered from the Divine, Arbitrage Factions The Divine Principality: Stitched together thousands of years ago from the remains of the Divine Free States and the Principality of Kesh, it is largest empire in the history of the MIlky Way Galaxy. Even now, divided against itself, any subdivision of its arms stretches further than any kingdom or confederation ever has before. An utter failure. Stel Kesh: Among the oldest operating powers in the stars. Devoted to the Past even though they've long lost control of the Divine who shares its name. Snobbish historians, ineffective parliamentarians, and stubborn reactionaries. Kesh is generally aligned with the Curtain of Divinity. Stel Nideo: WIth origins in the long lost Twilight Mirage, Stel Nideo are architects of our current era, dread controllers of the Present. Along with shaping mass media, popular culture, and educational standards, they now operate both Received and Progressive Asterism, the former run by the corrupt Cycle and the latter by the grotesque puppet of the lost prophet Gur Sevraq. These priests, pop idols, and patriotic poster children are largely aligned with the Curtain of Divinity. Stel Orion: For hundreds of thousands of years, Stel Orion—under countless names and forms—has repeated a cycle of exploitation and revolution. Competing spirits of individualism and camaraderie ebb and flow, but industry remains. Is it any wonder that it remains associated with the raw breadth of Space itself? Currently, Orion is at war with itself, with countless small factions not only differing in position on the larger civil war in the Principality, but also on many additional issues like wealth, religion, and culture. Stel Columnar: Famously “courted” by the growing Principality many generations ago, this nation of humanoid synthetics traded freedom for the prestige and security of the Principality. They hid behind imperial walls and pursued the Future, pushing boundaries not only in technology, but in art, commerce, and war. I suppose I can call them cousins, but not with much fondness. Today, they share righteous screeds and fight for the return of something like democracy as part of the Pact of Necessary Venture. What a comedy. Stel Apostolos: An ancient people, ever obsessed with external conquest and internal freedom, and utterly uninterested in understanding their own contradictions. They are dedicated to the pursuit of forward Motion, and I suppose I can respect such bullheaded devotion. It is, at the very least, not boring. They are the meat and muscle of the Pact of Necessary Venture. The Curtain of Divinity: For generations, the Curtain of Divinity operated in the shadows of the Principality, partly as intelligence agency, partly as shadow government. Now they have been dragged into the daylight, and serve as one of the two ruling factions of the whole Principality. Though there are some divisions along questions of secularity, humanism, and cultural taste, in general, leaders of the Curtain are conservative, traditionalist, and nationalistic. They seek the reunification of all five Stels and the permanence of the Divine Principality. Led, in public at least, by Cynosure Whitestar-Kesh, the Peaceful Princept. In fact, the Curtain has five divisions, each led by a ruthless individual known only by a codename: Silk (diplomacy), Damask (research & inquisition), Lace (military), Linen (economics), and Gabardine (espionage and collaboration). The Pact of Necessary Venture: As their (current) name suggests, the Pact began as a cooperative exploratory committee founded in the late 14th Century of the Perfect Millennium. They sought new territory to conquer, breaking an old taboo in the process, and inviting destruction and fracture. Which is appropriate, as their vision for the future is one where each Stel is granted more autonomy and independence—some even claim that they would see the Principality utterly destroyed and replaced by a loose affiliation of free states. Despite this, the Pact are no radicals: While they want more independence from the Principality, they have little interest in shaking up the internal power structures of the Stels themselves. After all, their founders were all Elects, and though only two remain (Gallica, elect of the Divine Present, and Rye, elect of the divine Space), they are led by Dahlia, who serves as both Apokine and Glorious Princept. Millennium Break: Terrorists, thieves, and revolutionaries. Founded on the moon of Partizan in 1423-1424 PM. A wrench in the wheel, a fly in the ointment.

This episode carries content warnings for violence, abduction, and risk of suffocation. Welcome to the Road to PALISADE, an interlude connecting PARTIZAN to PALISADE, our upcoming season (which will be played in Armour Astir: Advent by Briar Sovereign)! Unlike 2019's Road to PARTIZAN, please know that this season will likely contain broad spoilers for COUNTER/Weight, Twilight Mirage, and COUNTER/Weight. In many ways, we see both the Road to PALISADE and PALISADE itself as opportunities to weave many important threads from the Divine Cycle together. Another way in which this interlude season is different from the Road to PARTIZAN is that we aren't necessarily telling a linear history from point A to point B. While many key points on the five years separating the two seasons will be hit, the Road to PALISADE is intended to be less of a direct history and more of a series of snapshots, capturing events happening as the Principality's civil war continues. As a fun note, all of the stories we play this interlude season are generally inspired by the cast's answers to Crunchyroll writer Adam Wescott's question about what sort of PZN spinoff we'd all want to do! There are (thus far) two exceptions, and this episode is the first of those. When I first read Tyler Crumrine's HOUNDs, I knew instantly that this was how I wanted to kick things off. And as you'll see, Jack and Art proved that it was the right decision. Okay, given how long this particular Road is going to be—it's still in production as this first episode hits the main feed—I better shut up and let you get on with listening. This week on Friends at the Table: The Road to PALISADE: Hounds Pt. 1 Records Recovered from the Divine, Arbitrage Factions The Divine Principality: Stitched together thousands of years ago from the remains of the Divine Free States and the Principality of Kesh, it is largest empire in the history of the MIlky Way Galaxy. Even now, divided against itself, any subdivision of its arms stretches further than any kingdom or confederation ever has before. An utter failure. Stel Kesh: Among the oldest operating powers in the stars. Devoted to the Past even though they've long lost control of the Divine who shares its name. Snobbish historians, ineffective parliamentarians, and stubborn reactionaries. Kesh is generally aligned with the Curtain of Divinity. Stel Nideo: WIth origins in the long lost Twilight Mirage, Stel Nideo are architects of our current era, dread controllers of the Present. Along with shaping mass media, popular culture, and educational standards, they now operate both Received and Progressive Asterism, the former run by the corrupt Cycle and the latter by the grotesque puppet of the lost prophet Gur Sevraq. These priests, pop idols, and patriotic poster children are largely aligned with the Curtain of Divinity. Stel Orion: For hundreds of thousands of years, Stel Orion—under countless names and forms—has repeated a cycle of exploitation and revolution. Competing spirits of individualism and camaraderie ebb and flow, but industry remains. Is it any wonder that it remains associated with the raw breadth of Space itself? Currently, Orion is at war with itself, with countless small factions not only differing in position on the larger civil war in the Principality, but also on many additional issues like wealth, religion, and culture. Stel Columnar: Famously “courted” by the growing Principality many generations ago, this nation of humanoid synthetics traded freedom for the prestige and security of the Principality. They hid behind imperial walls and pursued the Future, pushing boundaries not only in technology, but in art, commerce, and war. I suppose I can call them cousins, but not with much fondness. Today, they share righteous screeds and fight for the return of something like democracy as part of the Pact of Necessary Venture. What a comedy. Stel Apostolos: An ancient people, ever obsessed with external conquest and internal freedom, and utterly uninterested in understanding their own contradictions. They are dedicated to the pursuit of forward Motion, and I suppose I can respect such bullheaded devotion. It is, at the very least, not boring. They are the meat and muscle of the Pact of Necessary Venture. The Curtain of Divinity: For generations, the Curtain of Divinity operated in the shadows of the Principality, partly as intelligence agency, partly as shadow government. Now they have been dragged into the daylight, and serve as one of the two ruling factions of the whole Principality. Though there are some divisions along questions of secularity, humanism, and cultural taste, in general, leaders of the Curtain are conservative, traditionalist, and nationalistic. They seek the reunification of all five Stels and the permanence of the Divine Principality. Led, in public at least, by Cynosure Whitestar-Kesh, the Peaceful Princept. In fact, the Curtain has five divisions, each led by a ruthless individual known only by a codename: Silk (diplomacy), Damask (research & inquisition), Lace (military), Linen (economics), and Gabardine (espionage and collaboration). The Pact of Necessary Venture: As their (current) name suggests, the Pact began as a cooperative exploratory committee founded in the late 14th Century of the Perfect Millennium. They sought new territory to conquer, breaking an old taboo in the process, and inviting destruction and fracture. Which is appropriate, as their vision for the future is one where each Stel is granted more autonomy and independence—some even claim that they would see the Principality utterly destroyed and replaced by a loose affiliation of free states. Despite this, the Pact are no radicals: While they want more independence from the Principality, they have little interest in shaking up the internal power structures of the Stels themselves. After all, their founders were all Elects, and though only two remain (Gallica, elect of the Divine Present, and Rye, elect of the divine Space), they are led by Dahlia, who serves as both Apokine and Glorious Princept. Millennium Break: Terrorists, thieves, and revolutionaries. Founded on the moon of Partizan in 1423-1424 PM. A wrench in the wheel, a fly in the ointment. Critical in pushing the Principality into chaos. Now spreading dissidence through the galaxy. Their manifesto, such as it is, is thus: We will help those displaced by the war. We will claim supplies only when it adds losses to the ledgers of the unjust. Free and fair elections will be held every two years. Burn thrones, build tables. When we provide for ourselves, we can provide for others. We will not turn our back on allies in need. If we must play their game, make sure to bloody their noses. When we reach the edge, we will Leap. Look sick as shit. The words of children. Persons Veronique (she/they): Elect of Fealty. A loyalist. A protector. A runner, in a previous life. Fealty (any, they/them): A Curtain Divine of glittering chrome and sculpture. Cynosure Whitestar-Kesh (he/him): “The Peaceful Princept,” supposed leader of the Curtain of Divinity. Growing, ever so slowly, into the title. Sierra (they/her): The bashful intelligence which pilots the agrivessel the Hen and Chicks. Gucci Garantine (she/her): Once, when she operated the revolutionary group HORIZON, true heir of the Rapid Evening, she called herself Saint Dawn. Now she simply calls herself one of the MIllennium Break's commanders, albeit through gritted teeth. Fortitude (it/its) & Acacia (they/them): A Divine from an era before my own, and in that way at least, a curiosity. It spreads its strength across many military units. As always, its need for an Elect is a disappointment. Layer Luxurious (he/him): A "podcaster." What a waste. Locations The Skarnoc Debris Fields: The remnants of a battle from the era before the Twilight Mirage, where the Rapid Evening fought and lost the Divine Nobility. Besides the normal ship debris, the field has gathered strange crystalline spires. Articles A Dash of Purple: Fealty, of course, knew what it was at once. How could they not? Hollows & Hallows: Mechanized military vessels, often in humanoid shape. The latter are enhanced by the touch of a Divine. The Treaty of Permanent Peace: An agreement of terms and conventions between the Curtain and the Pact, negotiated by the Elect Rye and the Peaceful Princept. By all accounts, this was the first great achievement of the latter. Without the safeties, guidelines, and structure provided by the Treaty, the less technologically advanced Curtain would have lost the war within the first two years of its start, with countless civilians left dead across core Curtain worlds. Miscellany The Perennial Wave: Perennial is something like a god, or at least I think she imagines she is. Her wave is her arrogant whim, made manifest. Functionally infinite nano-particles, spread throughout the galaxy, hampering all technology except (curiously) Divines. Kalmeria Particle: Most people don't know what it really is, or where it came from. Some know that it is named for the rogue engineer Kal'Mera Broun, but phew know that it is the result not only of their research into the divine Asepsis, but also the particular consequences of Millennium Break's battle with Motion and her siphoning of so-called “Autonomy Itself.” Hosted by Austin Walker (@austin_walker) Featuring Art Martinez-Tebbel (@atebbel) and Jack de Quidt Produced by Ali Acampora (@ali_west) Music by Jack de Quidt (available on bandcamp) Text by Austin Walker Cover Art by Craig Sheldon (@shoddyrobot)
Hebrews 3:12-19Some today claim you can never fall away. They say even if you stop believing, you'll still be saved. Andrew and Edwin find this to be a shockingly false claim proved wrong by the Hebrews author who tells us to beware unbelief lest we do not enter God's promised rest.Read the written devo that goes along with this episode by clicking here.

Jenna Ellis joins Dan to discuss her fealty to the U.S. Constitution, regardless of party affiliation, and her belief that the bill passed by the Florida legislature and signed by Florida governor Ron DeSantis is political retaliation against the Disney corporation simply for exercising their right to free speech against the state's Parental Rights in Education law. The former attorney for President Trump has also offered to help represent Disney in its case, should the company pursue legal action against Florida lawmakers removing their special tax and self-governing privileges on their Kissimmee-St. Cloud property, which have been in effect for the last 55 years.
Galatians 2:15-21Paul makes it very clear. No one, whether Jew or Gentile, is justified by works of the law. Everyone, both Jew and Gentile, is justified by faith in Jesus.

Senator Marsha Blackburn (R-TN) asks Supreme Court nominee Kentanji Brown Jackson what her definition of a woman is, and the judge says she can't answer because she's not a biologist. In an effort to maintain fealty to the progressive left, Jackson reveals herself to be a partisan operative not beholden to principles of basic, fundamental, absolute truths like the difference between biological men and biological women.

In this segment of By Any Means Necessary, Sean and Jacquie are joined by Brandon Soderberg, reporter on Baltimore for the Real News Network and coauthor of the book, "I Got A Monster: The Rise and Fall of America's Most Corrupt Police Squad" to discuss Baltimore's issues with vacant properties that both contribute to gentrification and pose danger to the communities they are in, the refusal of Baltimore officials to address the issue despite solutions being proposed in the past, and the city's pursuit of evictions and eminent domain on working and poor communities, its refusal to enforce housing codes or practice eminent domain on properties owned by housing developers, and how this situation exposes who local government actually works for.

Mary Fealty (@Br0adtree on Twitter) is a prime example of the spirit of "Why not?" that we've been exploring as of late! She is a Power BI early adopter (we like to call folks like Mary a Power BI OG!), and her experience and knowledge place her as a leader in the data solutions field. Mary is an "Analytics Wildling," and we think her way of looking at things is a peek into what the future of BI is like. Check out what Mary does at BroadTree Solutions!

The story of Sayyida Asiya provides several opportunities to examine the lives of the many women in the story of Nabi Musa (AS), and we study the Qur'anic verses and hadith which address them all. This class also engages with surah al-Tahreem and the stories of the six women who are mentioned in it, and how it is a very important surah about the family and fealty to the Straight Path. We conclude by examining the three Prophetic diagrams that were mentioned in Episode 2 and how we have come a full circle in our understanding of how they integrate and what place the four best women we have talked about so far occupy with regard to those diagrams. We also ask ourselves which path do we have fealty with...what ideas and systems of thought do we think will help us achieve our goals and aims in life, and to what extent do they agree with the Straight Path of Islam? *Apologies for the sound quality of this recording as it is not the best.

*Please note that I am not particularly critiquing the actions taken by government or individuals, provided their actions are based on honest and educated assessments of data. Isolating everyone vs. isolating only a certain population (e.g. those over 60, those with preexisting conditions, etc) is a judgment call. We don't have all the data necessary to make perfect decisions, so we're experimenting and learning as we go. At what point does shutting down the economy do more harm than good, particularly in countries where they live day to day, hand to mouth? I don't know, and I don't want to judge anyone for difficult decisions.However, what I do intend to point out in this episode is that my group has erred (as a broad generalization, of course) in our discernment. Many in my group have politicized the virus to the point that we were unable to assess the gravity of the situation, we were unable to effectively love in our actions, and we were unable to wisely discern common sense judgment and action in the situation. While I am not judging for making the wrong decisions given limited information, I am judging our political idolatry and our dismissal of truths which don't fit our desired narrative.

I'll put what I believe to be a very pertinent quote from the article below: The Religious Right's Hostility to Science Is Crippling Our Coronavirus Response: https://www.nytimes.com/2020/03/27/opinion/coronavirus-trump-evangelicals.htmlReligious nationalism has brought to American politics the conviction that our political differences are a battle between absolute evil and absolute good. When you're engaged in a struggle between the “party of life” and the “party of death,” as some religious nationalists now frame our political divisions, you don't need to worry about crafting careful policy based on expert opinion and analysis. Only a heroic leader, free from the scruples of political correctness, can save the righteous from the damned. Fealty to the cause is everything; fidelity to the facts means nothing. Perhaps this is why many Christian nationalist leaders greeted the news of the coronavirus as an insult to their chosen leader.A good summary of what Evangelical dispensationalism has helped produce, especially in the U.S. (by a respected professor via Facebook): I was raised and trained in a dispensational reading of the Bible, which is a highly-complex and chart-laden method for relegating the Bible's relevance to every other era of human history except this one.Mark Noll once quipped that it has produced a culture that focuses on the earth's first six days and the earth's future days, but doesn't want to care for the earth these days.It has also produced a culture intensely focused on children inside wombs, but will support a person who cancels programs to feed hungry children outside of them.It has produced a culture that takes pilgrimages to a theme park in Kentucky that claims to be a museum of God's creation but only has man-made things in it. It is somehow a building that contains an idea.It has produced a culture of well-intentioned people who genuinely want to study the Bible, but only to think its thoughts, not to do what it says.I know this culture well, and I love the people in it, so I talk about the culture and its assumptions and its ways and how it holds them in its grip, and the counter-intuitive way they can be free.That culture has taught its people defense mechanisms to hide its tentacles and its binding shackles.I hear these all the time when I talk about the sorts of things Jesus said to do. When I do it speaks back to me, “you're just a socialist.” “That's the social gospel.” “You're a liberal.” “You sound like a Democrat.” ★ Support this podcast on Patreon ★
