Right then, Redfield knew it was over. Trump showed in that moment that he hadn’t changed at all. The pandemic response wasn’t going to change, either.

It should probably be pointed out somewhere that on this issue, the American Catholic Church is also turning against the Vatican, who have repeatedly cautioned them not to do this. But US Catholicism has increasingly embraced this whole “more Catholic than the Pope” thing - the big instigator of this ‘excommunicate…

What’s going on here isn’t just toxic fandom, it’s more like weaponized fandom.

I’m already seeing whiners talking about how this yet-to-be-released series has gone super “woke” by taking to focus off of He-man and devoting it all to Teela.

I’m That Person at parties and happy hours because I point out that it was Sinead O’Connor who publicly called out the Catholic Church for sex abuse long before the Boston Globe ever did. The following year, a real estate developer found mass graves from the Magdalene laundries.

As a fellow lifetime Harry Potter fan what I always wanted growing up was to know what the wizarding community/history was like in the United States.

It’s just a show, you should really just relax.

That portrait is maybe not all it’s cracked up to be:

You asked. I would like to take this opportunity to suggest that Oscar Wilde is in fact still alive a la The Picture of Dorian Gray. He’s living under the name “Stephen Fry.”

Hopping vampires. They hop because they’re dead, low in qi, and stiff. So they’re terrifying monsters that want to steal your breath.

gif party! oh yeah!

Republican men are gonna feel like real man when a male nurse such as myself is sticking a catheter up their urethra. Then wipe down every inch of them every day.

Gotdammit! Why does everything humanity make have to look like a phallus? This is why aliens probe us. They think we communicate with dicks.

I watched the hearing, I remember being absolutely shocked by his conduct. He was completely unhinged and came off guilty as fuck.

His behavior should have disqualified him alone, but you gotta get those sweet conservative SC votes I guess.

There’s also the, uh, interesting case of a mountain of debt disappearing right before the confirmation hearings were set to begin.

Because of the makeup of the senate, the centrist Democrats are extremely powerful and they know it. Literally any single one of them can derail pretty much any progressive legislation. You may not like Joe Manchin, but if you piss him off then it is entirely possible that literally zero progressive legislation will…

Moderate Democrats are conservatives.

I have a duty to my parents too, but I don't expense my dad's diabetic strips to my small purchase account at work, you know?

“The mercury in the thermometer read 47 degrees, but I knew with the wind factored in, it felt like 45, maybe 42. This presented a challenge, nearly as stiff as the breeze I encountered, as I had chosen to leave my scarf at home, and my neck quickly became kind of chilly.  Also, my hair was blowing, which was…

Anecdote. When I was young my parents owned a country inn on the side of a lake in New Hampshire.

I was always told that the original structure used to be on the other side of the lake, but that the owners back in the day wanted to move it closer to the main road through the area, so in mid-winter they tried to roll…
