Furthermore, this is going a LOT better than I was expecting in terms of civility, I'm used to Twitter-level, frothing-at-the-mouth insanity whenever serious topics pop up. Much thanks

Ah ok, that makes a LITTLE more sense.

I agree with that to the extent of a person still believing them - I don't want active neo-nazis in my government. Are people not permitted to change themselves for the better? Or is this more of a perfectionist approach to public image? Being sincere.

Is the mere presence of past, rescinded opinions on the Internet seen as an active, current endorsement? I sincerely don't get the perspective here.

With all due respect, I don't understand. Does she still believe in whatever caused her to make those statements? If this was from 3 months ago, I'd be more concerned, but if she's changed her politics since 2012, I don't see the point in this.

I'm amazed the current administration is even celebrating Hanukah in the first place. Christian nationalists don't really get with the idea of religious tolerance.

tl;dr Bridgy Fed is SUPPOSED to allow Mastodon and Bluesky to integrate with each other, so your posts on Mastodon and Bluesky are aggregated and show up on one another. It doesn't seem to work for me.

Jack shit. I'm giving up on that front for a bit, it's too frustrating.

The whole deal of calling the objectors "woke snowflakes" rubbed me the wrong way. I'm not familiar with Zentraya as a person or what she makes creatively, but her quip was a red flag. I'm not advocating jumping on her, just saying that anti-fascists don't talk like that.

I was initially skeptical of the thread, but then I remember my former roommate who asked questions about my autism on an hourly basis as an attempt to disprove my diagnosis and everything clicked into place.

I remember playing 0.47 a while back... I somehow managed to create a gigantic pile of roasts that used 65 units of plums and about a dozen units of spinach and bitter vetch. Also had a similar situation with a mountain of cherries, a single leek, and a single apple.

How legitimate/illegitimate is biblical literalism seen among professional theologians? My limited theological studies indicate that interpreting every single verse literally and as a directive from God has the spiritual effect equivalent to driving off a cliff, but I'd like to confirm.

"I... firmly believe that there would be less gender issues and insecurities in children if they were raised knowing that they do not belong to themselves, but they belong to the Lord"

Ah ok I'm so glad this person clarified that personal agency is sin, that clears up so much.

Fucking hell.

It's amazing what propaganda can make people believe.

- trans people are an "ideology"
- charity is "communism"
- Birds "aren't real"

Ideally, Link would have no spoken dialogue but other characters react as if he does. That or if he DOES speak, it needs to be appropriately goofy and clueless.
