Lots of good people from Regina.

(I believe it’s canon that Deadpool is from Regina.)
Cartoon in which the character Deadpool says to a Blåhaj carrying a knife, “Blåhaj, you are honour bound to protect teams kids. Can you handle that. The Blåhaj replies, “MARRRR.”

BTW, here is the receipt.

JK Rowling described a documented Nazi crime as “a fever dream.”
A quoted tweet says, “The Nazis burnt books on trans healthcare and research, why are you so desperate to uphold their ideology around gender? JK Rowling quote tweets this at 9:57 am, March 13, 2024 with the comment, “I just … how? How did you type this out and press send without thinking ‘I should maybe check my source for this, because it might’ve been a fever dream’? The original tweet is referring to the attacks on the Institute für Sexualwissenschaft in Berlin in May 1933. It is a documented Nazi crime. Most public domain photographs of Nazi book burnings are from this event.

In a world where trans people’s dignity, humanity, and existence are subject to debate, every trans suicide is a murder. In a world where trans people aren’t allowed to participate in their community, every trans suicide is a murder. In a world where trans people are thrown under the bus because their rights aren’t considered a “winning issue,” every trans suicide is a murder. In a world where trans people have to fight every instant of their life simply to have the right to live in peace, every trans suicide is a murder.

Picture of a pickup truck parked by a building. In the foreground, a Nazi Swastika flag and a Confederate battle flag are mounted on a fence. The caption asks, “Why do Trump Supporters fly flags of armies that were defeated by America?” Followed by a “puzzled” emoji.

We really need to acknowledge that TradCaths are the ultimate Cafeteria Catholics
Tweet from Pope Leo’s official account: “The poor are not there by chance or by blind and cruel fate. Nor, for most of them, is poverty a choice. Yet, there are those who still presume to make this claim, thus revealing their own blindness and cruelty. #DilexiTe” Response from random American TradCath: “I was so hopeful I could be a Catholic again after the disaster that Francis was, guess we just get Francis 2.0 now and I am heartbroken. How do I stay a Catholic now … I don’t want to lose faith but I am. You belong to someone else, not God.”

This is what collaboration looks like.
A newspaper clipping with a picture of collaborators Cam Thompson, Charlotte Swansea, Adam Jentleson, Tré Easton, and Daniel Deisroth. They are the Searchlight Institute, a collection of Vichy progressives who are willing to see a pogrom of trans people.

Left Wing Politicians: Political Violence? — Condemn It Right Wing Politicians: Political Violence? — Who is it against? Against the Left? Ignore it or make fun of the victims, raise funds to help the criminals. Against the Right? Lower flags to half staff, call for the wiping out of the entire Left side.

He ran to be Canada’s Churchill.

He’s turned out to be Canada’s Chamberlain.

This is how one pays proper respect to Felonius Trump.
Screenshot of a tweet from “missbicks” saying: “Stephen Flynn, the Scottish National Party MP for Aberdeen South, said he couldn’t meet with Donald Trump today because he was busy washing his hair. Y’all, this is Stephen Flynn. Tears of Laughter emoji, Applause emoji.” The accompanying picture of SNP MP Stephen Flynn shows he is completely bald.

Today would have been Jack Layton’s 75th birthday. In a time of great challenge, his words are worth remembering.
Image of the late Jack Layton with a quotation from his final message to Canadians: My friends, love is better than anger. Hope is better than fear. Optimism is better than despair. So let us be loving, hopeful and optimistic. And we'll change the world.

#TransRightsAreHumanRights
Calvin & Hobbes cartoon. Frame 1 Calvin: Our pride poster needs a catchy slogan that promotes awareness. Mon suggested “have a gay day.” Frame 2 Hobbes: that’s kind of cute. Calvin: Yeah, but I like my idea better. Frame 3 Calvin: Tran rights or I bite. Frame 4 Hobbes: I suppose that lends itself more to your particular brand of illustration. Calvin: I hope I have enough Cadmium Red.

The problem is not so much that the Congressional and Senate democrats are unable to stop Trump.

The problem is that the feckless Democratic leadership isn’t even trying to stop Trump.
“The numbers suggest that the fury is at least partly fueled by the Democratic base’s dissatisfaction with congressional leadership’s relatively conciliatory approach to Trump this time around, and their inability to stop him,” Jain writes.

Your comment re writing out the blatant polytheism made me curious about our formularies.

Neither our 1962 BCP nor our 1985 BAS do that. I’m wondering if you have particular translations in mind.
PSALM 82. Deus stetit. GOD standeth in the divine assembly; / in the midst of the gods he judgeth: 2 ‘How long will ye give wrong judgement, / and accept the persons of the ungodly? 3 Do justice for the poor and the fatherless; / see that such as are in need and necessity have right. 4 Deliver the outcast and poor; / save them from the hand of the ungodly.’ 5 THEY have neither knowledge nor understanding; they walk on still in darkness; / all the foundations of the earth are out of course. 6 I have said, ‘Ye are gods, / and ye are all the children of the Most High. 7 But ye shall die like men, / and fall like one of the princes.’ 8 ARISE, O God, and judge thou the earth; / for thou shalt take all nations to thine inheritance. 82 God takes his stand in the council of heaven; * he gives judgement in the midst of the gods: “How long will you judge unjustly, * and show favour to the wicked? Save the weak and the orphan; * defend the humble and needy; Rescue the weak and the poor; * deliver them from the power of the wicked. They do not know, neither do they understand; they go about in darkness; * all the foundations of the earth are shaken. Now I say to you, ‘You are gods, * and all of you children of the Most High; Nevertheless, you shall die like mortals, * and fall like any prince.’” Arise, O God, and rule the earth, * for you shall take all nations for your own.
