It's true, and I said I regret the post. I feel like after a lot of people have replied then it's cowardly to delete, so I haven't. But yeah, I agree, poor form to comment on someone's looks.
or maybe both!
lol if only
ah, I thought it was because of the god stuff
I think doofus is an aesthetic judgment, but maybe I'm wrong?
really?
Walter blocked me! This is the first time I've ever seen I was blocked by someone, feels like I'm a realy bluesky user now
ty, that's what I was trying to say
I thought Trump said the US could "seize it" and voila, problem solved
I have no problem with what he's saying!
But commenting on someone's looks is always kind of gross, I regret the post a bit.
Please do!
I’m a mean old atheist but James Talarico trying to take back Christianity from the evangelical charlatans is vital to US politics.
People quoting/referring to the show was the first time I heard it
Theodora was most like forced into sex work as a child, too, right?
One of my grandmothers was a dental hygienist, then a teacher. The other one worked in the family business
My great-grandmothers worked too, farming and dressmaking. And one of them got elected to local government
Great 🧵, it turns into people telling all the ways their moms and grandmas earned money during those years when women "didn't really work"
I'm glad to see this statement, it will support faculty and programs who need to justify to their institutions why they aren't diving face-first into the sloppy world of AI writing
Asking Trump to extricate us from this war is not unlike asking a poodle to change a flat tire. Hopefully someone will come along and change it for us but it won't come from any affirmative act he takes, because he doesn't know what's happening.
when has that ever happened
why not?! sounds amazing
Look. I'm funny in professional settings. Not hilarious, but funny; I can get a laugh in meetings or oral arguments or whatever.
If you're not funny, that's fine! Don't tell jokes. It's so much worse to make them and have them bomb than to just be normal and serious.
I am the same! these are very challenging times
it's a good question. and many of the people leaving the Southern Baptists seem to be going to nondenominational churches -- which all different with no overarching doctrinal statements. so maybe the SBC decline means a progressive shift? but hard to know
So I think demographically, no they are not. But there are fewer butts in seats in evangelical churches.In public discourse the really militant, nationalist evangelicalism is rebounding. And I think online there's a lot of "god" talk that seems to me mostly an influencer trend?
that was the spark. then in college I took literature and religion classes that showed me how impossible it was to read the Bible as "literally" true. I stopped going to church at all for 10 years
When I did go back it was a liberal, affirming, hippie church
My mom, who conspicuously did her devotions and prayed with my dad every morning, was physically and spiritually abusive to me and my sisters
"Unsure: 14.5%" lol
I can't handle Cs every year! I went last year and might do next year, but it's a lot
The oil price has risen over 60% in March (we’re nine days in), a dictator that was going to die anyway has been replaced by his more hardline son, US soldiers are dead, 170 school girls have been slaughtered and a city of 10 million has been poisoned.
The self-inflicted catastrophe of our age.
