I am making a thread of the beginnings of all the chapters of the Pharisee’s Wife so it’s easier to find.

No lie at my aunt’s funeral they brought out good wine for the food afterwards. It was very Episcopalian.

You can’t separate the Holocaust from any understanding of World War 2. Those who do are really saying something very bad.

I think this is the most cursed social media post I have ever seen.

Tweet from Dinesh D'Souza: "I asked Bibi Netanyahu—the Jewish head of a Jewish state—to comment on the most famous Jew of all time, Jesus Christ."

See, there you are assuming all religions treat their stories the way a particular type of Christianity does.

Dalassa @dalassa.bsky.social · 5h

We could have ended this discussion a while ago if you had been clear that by religion you meant the Christianity you are familiar with.

Dalassa @dalassa.bsky.social · 5h

Just say Christian

Dalassa @dalassa.bsky.social · 5h

Shhh, I’m going somewhere with this.

Bluesky is fun bc a Jewish person can post something like this and then a whole bunch of those exact kind of atheists all summon themselves to prove her point

Atheist proselytizers are the religious proselytizers I’m most likely to come into contact with and they’re just as annoying as all of the other ones I experience

Does the time the US and Germany nearly got into a war over Samoa count? Or does it not because in the end a cyclone won?

If your activism isn’t intersectional, it’s useless.
