racist tradcath has to be seen, I think, as its own form of heresy
aphclarkson.bsky.social Alexander Clarkson @aphclarkson.bsky.social · 11h
It's quite fascinating how tradcath converts like JD Vance and Kevin Roberts are increasingly at war with much of a more liberal Catholic Church hierarchy in the United States

Memecucker: "There is nothing funnier than American Trad Caths revealing they're just Presbyterians that think Baroque looks cool." to Catholic Apologetics group Lepanto Institute saying the Pope does not have absolute unchecked authority to determine the clergy.

Som en person der for få uger siden er flyttet til Belgien fordi vores familie var mere eller mindre tvunget af omstændighederne til at flytte fra USA, føler det her ekstremt hårdt lige nu.

Captain Torture
A four frame comic about Captain Torture. The first frame shows the sign "BREAKING NEWS" and the drawing of a man, with the words "CAPTAIN TORTURES PASSES AWAY" near him. The second frame shows a journalist holding a mic, as she says "A controversial and divisive figure, Captain torture will be remembered for his key role in history." The News title is "Mourning day for Captain-". The third frame shows three posts on social media. The first one is by a man called Paul James @Paulitician. He writes: "I didn't always agree with Captain Torture but he sure was a man who believed in something." The second post by James Paul @Avegetable reads: "I pay my respects to Captain Torture and his family. His heart was in the right place- with our country." The third post is by SonicVomit @SonicBleh , and reads "HE TORTURED PEOPLE". The fourth frame shows an interview on TV. An angry man on the right is saying: "Let me tell you something, Jen. I think it's SICK to celebrate Captain Torture's death. These people should be LOCKED UP, and also tortured-". The news below says: "Every president on earth pays homage-".

this is such a great encapsulation of why this race feels existential even to people outside NYC. Cuomo as the final boss of everything wrong with the current Democratic Party, Mamdani happily grabbing the third rails everyone’s told are too dangerous to touch (trans people, Muslims, socialism)
popecrocodylus.bsky.social The Space Pope @popecrocodylus.bsky.social · 1d
It's uncanny how Cuomo has been laser-focused at appealing to the absolute worst qualities in people - their insularity, their tribalism, and now their fear. A campaign monumental in its cynicism, a colossal bet by this man and his billionaire backers that people are basically bad.

This isn't a closing election argument, it's Vidkun Quisling explaining why surrender is better than resistance.

personally, I work from third principles at the *earliest* because I figure they probably needed a few iterations to get good at principles.

got a new phone case
Picture of my hand holding a Pixel 7 phone with the back of the phone facing the camera. The phone case is pink with little colorful patterns along the edges and a cutout picture of my cat, Jonesy, squinting at the camera with the caption "Murder is okay!" in a comic book font above her head

New: Videos show ICE/CBP agents are scanning peoples' faces on the street to verify citizenship. ICE has tool to instantly look up unprecedented number of databases with just a photo

“I’m an American citizen so leave me alone”

“Alright, we just got to verify that”

ICE and CBP Agents Are Scanning Peoples’ Faces on the Street To Verify Citizenship
Videos on social media show officers from ICE and CBP using facial recognition technology on people in the field. One expert described the practice as “pure dystopian creep.”

For posterity, since they now appear to have been deleted.
Screenshots of the posts quoted in the post above and the reply. Post one, by Ephraim Stone (at testone.bsky.social) Okay so it seems like I need to restate this, Meggie. I pray to the Most High that your partner dies before they are old and that the Most High kills everyone you love before they are grown, and that you live to be 120. Post 2, also by Ephraim, quoted in the reply to the post above: I pray that the sea rises against you. I pray that the land poisons itself against you. I pray that you, your loved ones, and every one you care about faces food insecurity and housing insecurity without relief. I pray that therapy, higher education, and medical relief is forever out of reach.

Japan's "Mundane Halloween" costume contest is back!

Each year website DailyPortalZ holds a contest where people dress up as something super duper ordinary.

Here's a thread of some of my favorites from the 2025 contest!

They are synonymous in terms of their meaning. They both literally mean "in place of" and they both imply that a choice has been made that is different from the expected choice.
The only difference is the tone, "instead of" feels more casual than "in lieu of".
