#important_posts This is a great thread on the american christian churches you don't hear about so much.
(I grew up UCC, so I was very confused when I got online and saw people railing against christianity, because nothing they were saying matched any of my religious experiences?)

Uh. If I did a 15k ft view of American Protestantism, left of center Christians exist and have been here the whole time, would that be useful? I am having trouble gauging how much of the "Episcopalians! Who knew?" is sincere.

I’m sick of murderers shoving their lifestyle in our faces. Keep it behind closed doors where it belongs!

"does bluesky have drafts" no but we have kindness. we have friendship. we know love. we know how to see the world in a grain of sand, and heaven in a wildflower. we know how to hold infinity in the palm of my hand, and eternity in an hour.

Note: when operating a system with hundreds of millions of files in one directory on XFS and writing thousands of new files a second, it's a good idea to set "noatime,nodiratime" on the mount to keep write latencies low.
Don't ask why... I've been meaning to replace this system for a while now...

Yes, websites, including Bluesky, remove "anime art" if the art would appear to contain a prepubescent minor to the average viewer and the image portrays explicit sexual conduct. Because there are people serving life sentences in prison for hosting exactly that, and they don't want to join them.

I heard they tried to verify your domain and it turned out it wasn’t even a manor. They got there and the parish priest was like ‘who?’ Blacksmith was like ‘he called it a what?’ Just what I heard back in the royal court

I am enjoying the fact that we have a more diverse set of personality disorders on the site now.

If they wanted to take over the country, they only had to wait like three weeks until every technocratic nerd was unreachably distracted.
They fundamentally do not understand us, and that is why they will lose.

HAN MERCHANT: @KongQiu is this true?
KONG QIU: Many people believe that the Han, long united must divide. It's a complex issue and the reality is probably more nuanced than that.

I'm not particularly superstitious, but I do hold on to this one irrationality: the burning of the goat DOES matter.
My argument is that it hasn't burned for years now and shit keeps getting steadily worse. It was eaten by crows last year, but clearly that wasn't good enough.

This Fiona Apple narrated explainer PSA on how to film (and release footage from, not livestream) ICE arrests is exactly what we need from people with production skills right now and is worth about 3 million celebrity “imagine” covers in terms of survival utility
