conservative evangelicalism is the direct theological offspring of slaveholder christianity and it contains all of its pathologies, part infinity

What a joy it will be to have to treat every new work like a ticking time bomb until proven otherwise because mastercard wants to make sure fags dont get paid
worth remembering, David Lynch directed βfix your hearts or dieβ specifically at transphobes. it wasnβt a generic βno mean people allowedβ statement, it was said by his Twin Peaks character in defense of a trans woman he cared for and deeply respected.
"Messy lesbians, toxic power dynamics, giant robots fighting eldritch horrors, oppression, and hard choices."
Impressions of Isabelle Ruebsaat's Girl Frame, with some insights from the designer herself.
AM READING, CAN CONFIRM: the loreplay is tasty (feat. a death-obsessed city, shockingly understated blood magic, plot-relevant bioluminescence &more) plus an engagingly curious, sociable, yet vulnerable MC and Mysterious Older Woman, Clearly More Than She Appears. Tension is satisfyingly smoldering!

Oh, Iβm gonna keep going. Itβs Black History Year now since the cΕΓ€qΕ―ΔΕΕ wanted to play all day.
This new month (March) will focus on Black women.
April? Neurodivergent Black people (& more).
May? Blasians & those in the mental health field.
June? Queer Black people.
And so on & so forth.
I cannot emphasize enough that these people are being laid off for failing to do things that are literally impossible
Zoey is presenting as an Alpha in her mid twenties after living her whole life as an Omega, and she isn't sure why it's making her stare at Celine so much but the older Alpha is surely the best person to give her advice and help her keep cool! .... Right? Right????

Donβt think the conditions are the same as GA but what I donβt think people understand is the new strain of southern democrat is unabashedly progressive and has suburban backing. Itβs happening from NC to Texas.

something something Zoey having a kpop stan shrine to the Sunlight Sisters and to Celine specifically, and having one of those custom saint prayer candles but it's Celine as the saint
many such cases (source: even a dog might stumble upon a princess)
This is the other issue. Locking up product, but only in certain locations was a bad move.
