Babes, university police seized my Bible and threw it in the dumpster at a solidarity protest. That old, second hand, falling apart Bible stuffed with notes and stickers was absolutely essential to being there. Someone even used it as a place to put their shawarma down, which is perfect. It's just a book. My actions are so much more important to what that book says than the physical book itself.

But also, that's soooo on the nose. Confiscating and throwing out a holy book at a peaceful protest? Couldn't find a better illustration of America if I TRIED.

"Is it nepotism?"

"What?"

*explains the nuances of cronyism in society and its basis in cisheteropatriarchical concepts like primogeniture that (while we pretend that this concept passed with the divine right of kings) still control nearly every aspect of our lives in some way.*

That cat is absolutely an orphan-generating coal baron. The mustache and top-hat are there in spirit, if not actually. Legally, that cat's name should be Reacher Gilt.

Apparently this comment got screenshotted, escaped containment, and made its way back to the owner of the cat who found me.

Hew name is Lucy, she is well-loved, and she just looks like that all the time:

the functionality and usefulness of tumblr polls would increase on an unfathomably exponential scale if you could select multiple options. so many polls are reduced to 90% results being "more than one". useless!

The most interfaith environment i have been in for a while has been my local college encampment in solidarity with Palestine. I just sang the Shabbat prayers and stood around Muslims during their evening prayer and said Vespers for those martyred. A child did a cartwheel and laughed during the moment of silence, and I rejoice that she knows joy and safety. I read Letter from a Birmingham Jail this morning—my grandfather's copy—and the reverend already said everything we need to hear, it seems. Go sow holy tension where it deserves to be seen. Keeping vigil with the possibility of arrest may be the closest I have come to Jesus' last days. He is dying in his homeland, over and over, and he was there on that grass, too.

The place and people I honored in this post were violently assaulted by police this afternoon, and I ask that you keep our community in your prayers. I know that it is the purest expressions of love that are an enemy to power. I know that true faith often gets you led away in handcuffs. I know that the people who are scared of and angry at coexistence and joy and grieving and prayer on a public lawn have hardened their hearts, and we must both pray for softening and chant louder our demands.

Palestinian organizations and families need your generosity most of all, but if you notice a particular need for it, considering sending a couple bucks to your local bail fund, or dropping by a nearby protest with some bottled water. Tear gas cannot cloud the future we can see and must build. You cannot trespass on earth that belongs to us all. May God be with you.

The best outcome is that she tells him to fuck off, and he bans her in retaliation. Then all her follower terfs will go after him, and chaos will ensue.

a few days ago an irl told me about how the alphabet is on the wrong order on the doctor who wiki because in one episode a character recites the alphabet backwards but gets two letters the wrong way around and there has been no other representation of the full alphabet in any other dw media so technically there’s no proof that it isn’t canon and i’ve been thinking about that ever since

not joking (U is supposed to come before V)

actually it gets funnier. there are multiple instances of parts of the alphabet being spoken in episodes. the problem is absolutely none of these have spoken that specific section since the episode that got the order wrong.
