people showing up to the met gala in bland outfits are cowards!! the theme is “heavenly bodies – fashion and the catholic imagination” and catholicism aesthetically is balls to the fucking walls martin luther left for 95 reasons and like 60 of them were the opulence of the catholic church so if you got the money to back that legacy up then do it bitch !!
Last month, the National Film Board of Canada launched Indigenous cinema, an extensive online library of over 200 films by Indigenous directors — part of a three-year Indigenous Action Plan to “redefine” the NFB’s relationship with Indigenous peoples.
picked up Bible at four am on this Saturday night, started reading it, have come to the conclusion that the prophet Jeremiah was a Nebuchadnezzar apologist
this being the the Bible there is no such thing as a new take and I look forward to reading about all the monks and rabbis who have been arguing over this for centuries come morning time
You won’t see it in the news, but Puerto Rico just had a national strike. It was in protest of the federally imposed Fiscal Board. They want to take away education, health and pensions. The local government made sure to turn a peaceful protwst into a violent one. Senior citizens, children, students and teachers, that were there expressing themselves ran for their lives as cops closed in and threw tear gas at them.
Now, there are more extreme people protesting who caused trouble as well, but what has transpired today was deliberate by a suppressing government.
Our country is hurting, our country is crying. We are alone.
I’m doing a sleep study and the weird creepy after-hours clinic full of colorful characters feels *exactly* like the cold open to a Doctor Who episode

So here’s newest in transphobia, misogynoir, & just overall awfulness in sports.
This is directed at Caster Semenya. She is a cis black woman, (who has naturally highish levels of testosterone) and she is an incredible athlete. This is misogynoir and transphobia all wrapped up in one shitty package backed up by shitty science and nowhere near enough data. It is a moral and ethical failure by the IOC, and it cannot go uncontested.
Let’s not forget that Caster Semenya is intersex and how these rules target intersex athletes who already face a lot of push back in competitive sports.
