Honestly? My independent Baptist church thought Methodists were questionable. I mean, they were probably going to heaven, but only because nothing can ‘pluck you’ from God’s hands, no matter how much you sin by letting a woman be a youth paster.

Hating yourself gets utterly exhausting...

True story: Most fundamentalists, like the ones that run this school, believe that nuns are secretly sluts fucking around with the priests and even if they aren’t, they are on their way to hell because they worship an idol called a Pope.

I said it in my own comment, but do you know how many downtown DC restaurants are dying for customers?! And this fucker goes for a corporate fast food joint that pays their employees minimum wage. UNBELIEVABLE. This is a political move at the expense of real people who’s income is already in danger. I am seething when…

Do you know how many downtown DC restaurants are dying for customers and to make money, since there are so few people needing to eat downtown and who can afford the expenditure when they don’t when they are getting their next paycheck?! And this fucker goes for a corporate fast food joint that pays their employees…

Yes, Every. Damn. Time. and then I mentally correct myself every time. Which is a shame because they make such beautiful boots. 

Although I think fence vs. wall is semantics and not worthy of actually differentiating between because their purpose is identical, those Twitter quotes are great. Nielson is lying. And how is it different that Clinton calls Trumpsters deplorables, but Trump will call all who oppose the wall criminals? I mean,…

His quote references those as an explanation for what he is referring to. This article is weird to me.

...but don’t understand how they benefit from outsourcing and international trade at the checkout in Walmart.

I agree with you. My comment was sardonic. I don’t for one second believe they will delay this by 24 hours to give them time to legally codify the actual convictions that don’t apply. They’ll delay it for as long as possible. My point was precisely that it takes 10 minutes to find a list of what’s a felony sexual…

Absolutely, which is why I’d imagine, it states murder explicitly on the amendment. I really don’t see how they could possibly justify delaying the implementation beyond 24 hours. 

I looked at the Amendment again, because I remember that it did still bar a few felons with specific convictions, and I wondered if those needed to be clarified.

The church that ate Tyler. Green Acres is the worst. The worst! Even when I was a fundie Tylerite I had nothing but contempt for the leadership of that church. They never did anything with their copious amounts of money that didn’t benefit themselves as far as I ever heard, as they were classist as hell. Their buses…

They are spending money on a mostly local economy. The wedding was in India, the caterers would have been local, the waiters would have been local, the florist local most likely. There would have been rented tents, etc, etc. A lot of those celebrities money just went into some very poor or at best very middle class…

You do understand she is not an Evangelical anymore, right? I’m also an ex-fundie and while I think Perry still has some issues to work through, she’s pro-choice, pro-equality (she’s even commented with horror on the prayers of her youth against homosexuality), and has a lot of other very liberal leanings she’s very…

Oh, yes, that’s it! I have to amend my other comment.

My Texan grandmother calls it Pistachio Watergate Salad (another commenter reminded me of the right name) and I’ve heard it referred to as Pistachio Ambrosia by some relative at some big Texan family function. I love the stuff. It’s not going to get itself on the Whole 30 diet, that’s for sure, but whatevs.

Ah, I did, and I apologize. I commented something similar a few days ago. It’s such a disconnect and we are in complete agreement on this.

I think you’re being way too defeatist. They aren’t dictators and they don’t even work for the same government technically. DeSantis will work for the state and Scott will work for the federal government. And those 1.5 million have their right to vote enshrined in the state constitution now. What is DeSantis going to…

I’m not sure you know what Amendment 4 was. 1.5 million got back their right to vote, so they haven’t had a party. And the cherry on top? The very man who denied them that right for YEARS is the person who won that Senate race by only 10,000 votes. Scott will be a one term Senator, unless the Democrats royally screw…
