My religious belief is all Christians should be fed to lions, and I’m bringing my case to a court filled with judges picked specifically to overturn Polycarp vs. Domitian, it’s not that I hate Christians, actually I love them, I just hate their not-being-eaten-by-lions lifestyle.
I just pray that Christians will turn away from their destructive not-getting-eaten-by-lions ways that cause such turmoil in their lives and embrace my God’s plan for them as a feline snack. The fact that they’re protesting me is evidence of how much hate is in their hearts.
One of the worst things a lion trainer, who teaches lions to eat Christians, can be called by an uneaten Christian is anti-Christian.
I know there are a lot of confused Christian teens who think they don’t want to be eaten by lions, and that’s why I give generously to conversion therapy programs that teach them, through healthy application of scripture, shame, prayer and torture, to desire being eaten by lions.
I’m a very religious baker, and I think that I should be allowed by law to refuse to bake cakes for Christian weddings, unless those weddings involve the party being devoured by at least three and preferably seven lions. My religious freedom should not be trampled by the law.
Now having said all that, there’s no way to know how this judge—who has written extensively about the merits of throwing Christians to lions, calling it “Christian pride”—would rule on a case about forcing Christians to be eaten by lions as the Constitution demands.

an endless parade of overt cheating and fascist brutality and bigotry and corruption and Democratic leadership keeps acting like they’ve no power beyond stern glances and the press spends half the time wringing their hands because Biden won’t commit to paying his parking tickets
I am a one-issue voter and that issue is perpetually kicking elected Republican’s balls up into their necks without cease
POLTERGEIST (which scarred my wife as a child) is, in my opinion, good.
Which I wasn't expecting.⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Among the best of a genre I'd call "family horror," which if they still make anymore I'm not aware of them (last one I remember is Arachnophobia). Thrills-not-scares, a bit goofy, pitched in the key of Spielberg (who produced), usually set in a gradually demolished suburbia.
Anyway I thought this wouldn't hold up, but other than a few special effects that I'm guessing weren't the most effective moments of the movie even in 1982, it very much does.
Really dug how absolutely bugfuck Tobe Hooper was allowed to make the final act.
Plenty of people are pointing out the reasons this is nonsense even if the premise of "playing by the rules" were legit.
I'll add this: what we're seeing is an attempted fascist takeover of the government; therefore, we should very much desire unprecedented radical remedy.
Like, yes, sure, fine, he's being disingenuous about how adding seats to the court is outside the rules while also claiming Republican judicial nullification is inside the rules.
But also Republicans are an openly fascist party. Let's get unprecedented, please.
The Republican political "chess" strategy has been methodically stabbing their opponent with a butcher knife, then whining that their opponent's attempt to take their knife away isn't listed among authorized chess moves.
In the months after the 2016 election, still reeling from the permanent demolition of the reality I'd known, I wrote an essay called Sky. It was my lament. armoxon.com/2017/01/sky.ht…
Near the end of the first year, I posted Bubbles, about a nation I’d failed to see, the terrible lies it has been founded upon, the spiritual desire of such terrible lies, and what I perceive as our role, which is to live as good stories, as works of art. armoxon.com/2017/08/bubble…
