This one seems divisive so I am curious how everyone feels

Poll: do you like Silent Night?

Yes! It's my favorite!

Yeah it's a good'un

It's fine

I have no strong opinions on Silent Night

Eh, it's okay but over done

It's decidedly mid and I'm over it

I hate Silent Night

Silent Night sucks but Stille Nacht slaps

You gotta do it as the counterpoint - Night of Silence

I used to like it but I got sick of it

I used to dislike it but it grew on me

I don't know this song

So I just blocked someone trying to follow me. I'm Catholic which is all well and good for the me. This person was some kind of Christian or another allegedly which is all fine and good for them. However, the very first thing I see on this person's blog is an ai generated anti-muslim meme.

The meme depicted a woman in a hijab receiving EBT benefits while an elderly Caucasian woman did not.

First of all, absolutely no one should go hungry.

Duh.

Second of all, the assumption that a Muslim woman would be receiving benefits entirely because she is Muslim? What the fuck is that?

Sir, I blocked you but if Jesus came down to earth today he would slap the shit out of you and I would help him.

Being a true Simpsons fan means realizing that the Armin Tamzarian episode (Armando Barreda para nosotros los reales) is one of the funniest, easily top ten of the series and the one with Frank Grimes is mid at best.

So you know those "parallels" between Callum and Viren in s5? Yea, these comparisons are overwhelmingly and entirely about Claudia.

Here are the receipts:

Which, going into s6, will be the most important part of Claudia's character, the fact that she is repeating all of the same missteps that Viren did. Comparisons to Callum here are entirely incidental.

That Viren is suddenly very family focused post-timeskip is almost entirely about drawing a straight line between these two. If Viren started about being so caring and loyal about Viren, what does that say about Claudia?

But let me also make a broader point: there's a lesson to all of this about interpreting stories. Sometimes, the clearest, most immediate impression we get is the most correct. When a major character, for instance, says about Callum: "you have your aunt's spirit in you," that's not an invitation to ascertain why she actually got it all wrong and reinvent the wheel. It's an invitation to accept and listen to what the story is telling you.

So that when a character, for instance, says about Viren:

You believe them.

That wasn't Dirk playing the whamola but here's what you want done

But here's a twist. John's using a proton pack to suck up the fish

I guess I'm trying to be absurd or funny but I don't know
