I will not have you taking the good name of Grinderman in vain!

Just as an FYI, you can join Catholic churches that’aren’t Roman Catholic churches. You can have all the pageantry without the “we spent thirty years in Africa encouraging the AIDS crisis because we hate barrier contraception” guilt. See if there are places in your area - they  are often joint churches, like

I’m not a Christian, though my parents certainly tried hard to make me one.

In Germany, at least, everyone who speaks a regional dialect has also grown up being taught “hoch Deutsch” so they can communicate with someone outside their village. They’d have to switch into mainstream mode to use voice recognition. My experience is that most UK people can put on RP when they want, even if they’re

It’s a great film, but I will confess that what gets me is that the older white drag queen (Dorian Corey, filmed doing her makeup in her apartment) has a corpse in her goddamned closet the whole time. Seriously. When she died, her fellow queens raided her place for gowns and wigs, and found the mummified corpse of

I was surprised by the waste of a good Allison Janney.

I worked damn hard at my high school jobs to save up so I could afford to go to Germany with my high school German class. We also went with another high school class from like a thousand towns over.

This is absolutely the face I made reading this story.

I am so, so tired of the “You’re not a real woman if you don’t menstruate” bullshit.

If you’re inclined to be generous, you could speculate that they’re afraid of opening the door to build-the-wall MAGA messages, which I am guessing they’ll now start to get in response.

You have, in fact, acted against me. Your refusal to accept this is horrifying - and a pretty typical response from Catholics incapable of having values beyond, “defend the Catholic Church.”

I understand entirely that you will continue to protect an organization that funds legislation against me, and will never apologize for it. You value tribalism (“loyalty”) over your fellow human beings, and I understand that it is because you are a Catholic raised by Catholics. The child rape practices within the

To me, this sounds like a horrifying repeat of the kinds of colorism that has produced things like the “brown paper bag test.”

I would say that Dahmer is a reasonable comparison because his victims were often non-white sex workers. 

I taught for about ten years at a Big Ten school and had barely-awake students of all races and ages scramble into 8 a.m. classes with messes of hair or barely-on kerchiefs trying to keep the mess at bay. I routinely gave students shit for tardiness, but can’t imagine yelling at someone for hair, especially someone

I was raised religiously by two loving parents in a liberal mainline Protestant church that ordains women, permits gay marriage, and in general does its best to improve lives for all Americans.

Absent any context, I do think this is poor judgment on the teacher’s part. I can see myself using something like that image to generate discussion about symbols and stereotypes - but I generally teach university-level students, which is a different ball game. If the teacher’s goal was to get students to reevaluate

Yeah, I loved the pic of Amber with her mother in the cute shirt (left):

It’s become abundantly clear that American Catholics care primarily about allegiance to the RCC, not the Constitution, or their fellow citizens, or even basic morality. It’s a church of obedience, not morals - much like other top-down authority churches, like the LDS, Scientology.

I’ll believe she feels that remorse when she paints the walls with her brains.
