does anyone in the philadelphia/south new jersey/delaware area have the room and desire to take care of one of two cats that we can no longer take care of. we were originally taking care of them for rover purposes but then the mom could not take them back and surrendered them to us.
one of them is an old lady named china who really just wants to sleep all day in a sunbeam. and the other is a smaller recent-adolescent named bowie who is extremely skittish and will hide from you as soon as he sees you. we do not have the room or income to handle them long term so i figure i would reach out in case someone that follows me does, or knows someone who does.
1400's Jerry Seinfeld: "What's the deeeeeal with those spanish inquisition guys? They call them Moors, and then they spend their whole career making sure there's less of them!"
unfortunately in the 1400s the sedition-heresy double whammy of ridiculing the crownâs wars against the moors was not the safest bet on the board, especially for jewish writers and new christian writers of jewish descent (the latter demographic being especially known to vocally support the war effort as an ultimately unsuccessful gambit to direct inquisitorial attention away from themselves). luckily for jerĂłnimo de seinfeld, the inquisition would not ban anonymous publication until 1559, so if heâs feeling good about this comedy set he can still choose to circulate the manuscript without his name attached
Itâs a beautiful day in queernorm alt Russia and the gay tsarevich is having a lovely stroll along the boulevard with the controversially lower class boyfriend the narrative has provided for a scintilla of conflict! Look how happy they are together now that all that unpleasantness got brushed aside with a single, sensible conversation.
And whoâs that coming out of the cheese shop now? Itâs the lesbians whose role in the story is exclusively âholding the brain cellâ! How wonderful to see⊠wait a moment. Whatâs that? Iâm getting word that one of the lesbians is taking off a prosthetic mask sheâs been wearing all this time⊠what is the lesbianâs true identity?!

Canoe rental shop owner: âLook, this lake is easily navigable with all types of watercraft. Itâll be hard to find one, but if you really donât want any other kind of boat...â

Endocrinologist: âBased on your chart, I really donât think Aldactone is a good fit for you. We have cyproterone available, it has much fewer side effects.â
My girlfriend: âPlease listen to her, this is about your health.â
Me: âYeah, I understand, this is important.â
My girlfriend: âGood, I was beginning to get worried about your Bonnie Tyler phase.â
Pactdice has a lot of problems (seriously. So many problems), but to its credit, we can't off the top of our head name another ttrpg where players will debate the various ways one could try and run the practice where your wizard is owned by an immortal faerie as a pet (possibly sexually)
Broken record, right? I still have unfinished commissions, but money is urgently needed for several reasons, so if you're at all interested I'm eager to work. Everyone will be served, so if the line gets long just sit tight, I haven't missed a customer yet. Just send me a message or an email, and we can suss it out.
While headlines were giving the Catholic church hierarchy plaudits for symbolic gestures in support of immigrants and a papal lunch with tra
Missing hormones. Canceled surgeries. Bureaucratic denials. Late last year the Catholic Church banned all trans healthcare across its sprawl
Quick summary on why this is significant:
There are many states (including states with progressive governments) where over 1/3 of all total available hospital beds/clinics/doctor office practices are in Catholic institutions (map here from 2020).
The ban is for all transgender healthcare: HRT, surgery, adults as well as children.
It is a new ban; many of these places previously provided trans healthcare and people have lost their coverage, often the only available coverage in their area.
The ban voted on by the U.S. Conference of Catholic Bishops, was passed with 206 in favor and 7 against, and they specifically quoted Pope Francis saying, "I want you to fight gender ideology, which is repugnant to the Bible and our tradition," as the reason why it was necessary.
More information on the Catholic Church being a huge driver of international transphobia can be found in Judith Butler's "Who's Afraid Of Gender?", chapter 2, "Vatican Views".
