Fucking Shit Up Since 1993

Hey Y'all! This is my personal blog. My blog is kind of a mixed bag: humor, fandom, some aesthetic I guess, mostly just whatever floats my boat. Formerly: ftpd-hof-wps Feel free to message me at anytime with anything! Currently moving all my important saved tiktoks to here in case TikTok goes down.

if I could ask God anything and get the real, genuine answer, I’d ask him why He commanded Abraham to sacrifice Isaac. He knew He was going to stop him. He knew that He’d never truly ask him to do it. He knew that if he went through with it then His promise would be frustrated.

The thing is… the story has led parents to think it’s okay to sacrifice their children, metaphorically and sometimes literally, for a false sense of moral superiority. How many LGBT+ children have been sacrificed in the supposed name of Christianity? How many autistic children? How many orphaned children? How many abused children?

Maybe it was the right lesson for Abraham, especially about how it paralleled Christ’s atonement. But it’s not a story that has translated well into modern times.

[relatablemormonmoments]

do you want the Jewish answer? It was to challenge him to think critically about commandments from g-d (and translating to religion as an institution, rulings from religious leaders and scripture), and it’s a challenge he failed. He was supposed to, theoretically, fight g-d and say “no, by no means am I going to do this. I don’t care that you created everything, that is my child and my world, and I’m not going to do it just because you said so.”

Instead, Abraham royally screws up, traumatises his son, and in doing so, loses his son, loses g-d’s will and favor, and in the Tanakh we never really hear from Abraham again after this point, because he failed.

It’s a story about someone blindly following in faith, and losing the most important things to them because they never stopped to think “Wait, did I hear this right? And if I did hear this right, am I so sure that this is something I want to follow?”

Isaac was Abraham’s only son at the time, and the child he had fought so hard to have. Him following an order blindly without thinking of the consequences is not supposed to be a good thing (It just kind of benefits the feudal society that eventually embraced Christianity, which is why the understanding was changed in Christian worldviews.)

[ginger-snaps014]

@relatablemormonmoments can you do the Sarah and Hagar story next?? I could never get me head around it and you did a good job with the other story. Like I just feel bad for Hagar

Sarah: I can’t have kids. Hubby-o-mine, go and sleep with the slave girl who can’t give consent (yes I realize the consent think is more modern concern but still)

Abram: ok

Hagar (slave girl) can’t say no. Abram sleeps with her.

Sarah: wow slave girl is getting all uppity. I don’t like her. I don’t like sharing. Hubby-o-mine, can I abuse her?

Abram: ok. That’s your right.

Hagar flees to desert to avoid abuse. Angel appears to her.

Angel: Hagar, you’re preggers. Go back to your abusers. They will hate your kid.

Hargar goes back. Has a son.

Sarah: But now I’m preggers. I don’t like Hargar again. Oh, I gave birth to a son too

Kid Brothers act like kid brothers and annoy (the older bro is still to young to really talk- so below about the angel stuff).

Sarah: Hubby-o-mine, send the woman who could not say no and her infant/kid son (your son) into the dessert (where they will presumably die of dehydration and starvation). I don’t want my kid to share his inheritance or deal with his brother acting like a kid around him.

Abram: ok… I don’t like this.

god: it’s cool

Abram: bye- god said it’s cool.

Abram gives them a piece of bread and some water (only so much because Hargar could carry it with her infant /kid son). Sends them to the desert. Where they wonder aimlessly. Slowly dying of thirst. Hagar and son suffer. Nearly die. Ribs show through their skin. The starving son cries.

Angel: hey your son crying (probs cause the brink of death thing). Look here is a well. Your son is going to be super important and found a kingdom. Whoo! Forget all that rape, starvation and attempted manslaughter! Yay! Praise the god who allowed the first part and specifically sanctioned the last bit! (Also this is the Bible, so I’m likely speaking to Hagar instead of a man because the kid is too young)

Also as the Bible is concerned, hagar’s abusers will not be punished at all and in fact they will be praised. Oh and a lot of Christianity will say this was cool, because Sarah somehow represents heavenly goodness, and Hagar represents the lowly earthly things. Or that Sarah and her kid represent the redeemed. while Hagar and her kid represent unredeemed, who are “carnal by nature and mere exiles”.

So if the Jewish interpretation is different. Please provide

[relatablemormonmoments]

So neither the Jewish nor the Mormon interpretation of the Sarah-Hagar story are that different (For those in the notes: Raised interfaith Orthodox Jewish and LDS, currently attending Reform shul and hillel, all in Southern California. Attended both Hebrew School and Seminary). Of course, you’ll get some folk interpretations, like growing up I heard a lot of LDS women saying that Hagar is super important and loved and conversely I heard a lot of LDS men saying that she was being punished for her skin color. I’ve heard that Hagar is Abraham’s 2nd wife after the death of Sarah in some Jewish circles…. or that she was the pharoah’s daughter and Sarah treated her well… Translations midrash and more fun! Historical interpretation under the read more, though

Imagine Grace defined his name as the elegance definition of grace and Rocky spends years thinking how fucking ironic this clumsy leaky space blobs name is.

Until Grace slips out a sentence along the lines of "could you give me a little grace here" and Rocky immediately points out he used a word wrong so Grace has to explain that yeah, grace means elegance but it can also mean mercy sometimes too.

And Rocky has to suddenly reconcile that the clumsy leaky blob that saved his life twice, that almost certainly doomed himself to come back for him, name is Mercy.

[not-equippedforthis]

thinking about a very specific scenario of a grace with no video logs, with no xenonite failure, who comes back to earth as rocky comes back to erid, heart full but missing a very distinct piece. ten, twenty years go by, and grace is not malnourished nor does he look even half his age, but there's a deepset something in his eyes that has nothing to do with stratt's actions being revealed or the press or adjusting to earth again. about earth getting news of a ship coming down, whose atmosphere is fundamentally different now and causes trouble for that ship. damages sustained on that ship. a red light in the sky. suspected eridian contact as confirmed by dr ryland grace. thank you tom, anna temple here and we're live at nasa's makeshift landing pad, ready to receive, watching- oh, my- a row of officials that cannot pin down ryland grace this time as he, live on air, tears apart every country's anxiety of eridians by ripping from the crowd and jumping the fence into the launching area. a camera pan that judders from dr grace sprinting, the most energetic he's been in years, to a brown eridian kareening towards him in a xenonite suit. prepared to catch ryland's tackle and embrace him properly, there on the green grass, for the very first time. first contact.

[puppetmaster55]

suddenly thinking about the courtroom scene, of Stratt being accused of pirating literally everything, and Grace later having everything in the various computers aboard his ship that he gave a copy to Rocky without issue, and the beetles having such a massive memory capacity and...

Stratt was a historian. She wasn't just pirating for the sake of entertainment for the astronauts, she was doing a full historical backup of the planet. Who knows how much knowledge and communications ability, how much art and culture and history, how much niche knowledge of how to make specific pieces of modern technology or modern medicines, was lost as the wars for resources isolated everyone, as the death tolls led to the deaths of specialized trade workers and scientists, as the power grids failing across the planet (or cut off, potentially) led to all the cloud servers going dark. Stratt was facing methods of combating extinction and she did her best to ensure that if/when the Hail Mary worked, it would send back not just the hope of the future in the solution to the astrophage, but the restoration of history and culture and knowledge.

Just.... she pirated everything, and put it all on the Hail Mary.

The above is a video shared by smrchildsadness on Twitter, showing a person participating in a pride parade exchanging a pride flag with a person standing on his (am using his pronoun based on the TikToks/Tweets of what happened) doorway who had a Portuguese flag. There are sounds of cheers and crying and the two people hug each other as they exchange the flags. The man at the doorway then waved kisses to the crowd within the pride parade.

The Tweet says: "NO YOU DONT UNDERSTAND HE WAS WAVING THE PORTUGUESE FLAG BECAUSE HE DIDN'T HAVE A PRIDE FLAG AND THEY TRADED FLAGS AND HE'S SO EMOTIONAL TO GET HIS OWN PRIDE FLAG I'M EMOTIONALLY RUINED"

For context, apparently they were worried that maybe he's a nationalist because he was waving the Portuguese flag and some nationalists opposing the pride march were waving that flag. But upon interacting with him, it turns out he didn't have have a pride flag and he wanted to wave *a* flag in support of the pride march. So they had an exchange and now he has his own pride flag 😭🥹.

The image above is a Tweet by kunwara_ladkaa that says "I'm crying so much right now (Image taken by Manuel Fernando Araújo/Lusa)". The image shows the same man from the pride parade crying as he hugs his new pride flag.

The above image is a Tweet by dudz_zZzz that says "ainda não parei de pensar nele," which according to Google translate from Portuguese to English is "I still haven't stopped thinking about him." The image is a drawing of the person from the pride parade, crying as he hugs his new pride flag.
