Not piling on

Didn't happen to me on the paxlovid, but the worst taste I've ever had did. My husband also got the paxlovid rebound case, and the terrible taste.

No, it's not lazy, it's life experience. You are claiming I'm lazy without ever considering that I might have a different experience than you, that I might have done a ton of research on this in my own quest to deal with the fact that I too believed all that shit and was gay despite it. You are claiming that I didn't spend 10 years in this in-between space where I knew I wasn't straight but I couldn't possibly allow myself to be gay. I lived that, and I lived it because all the people I grew up with were Christian. My parents are Christian. They were saying the same things then that they are saying now about gays. And it's the same things that the Republicans were then and are now saying. So no. You don't get to assign laziness to me, assign a lack of reality to me because you don't happen to like some of the people you've decided to share a label with. It simply does not work that way, and you can fuck off if you are going to keep finding different ways to blame me for you sharing a label with a bunch of reprobates. I didn't choose that for you, you did. Own it, motherfucker and shut the fuck up about it, or get busy yelling it from the rooftops that those people aren't the real Christians and run them the fuck away from the label. Either way, don't you dare for another second pretend to understand why I have come to the conclusions I've come to and assign a lack of intellectual curiosity, laziness, or whatever else you are thinking.

Option #1: I bolded the part that lets me know you are 100% full of shit. Just stop pretending. Option #2: What anomalies are you talking about? Care to share them? You pick the one that makes the most sense to you.

So what am I supposed to believe about Christians in this country when the Republicans I'm hearing from today aren't saying anything different than my First Baptist pastor talked to me about every Sunday for the first 18 years of my life? To me, those are the Christians. You can pretend they aren't, but the onus is on what you consider to be "real" Christians to make it untenable for these charlatans to maintain the title. Until you as a body of real Christians are willing/able to do that, you are going to get total mistrust from people like me when you call yourself a Christian. You are taking on all that baggage with the title Christian. You can either change your title, or you can work on removing the baggage. Those are really the only two choices you have. Plus, blaming me for believing my own eyes and ears for the last 50 years is some major bullshit, man. I'm not a battered spouse, victim blaming is not going to work on me. Also, it's just not a good look.

Is he making a hitler mustache, or did he dip his fingers into something and now he wants to smell them?

And like I said, there would have been another incident to change that fact if Pearl Harbor never happened. We'd decided we needed to join, we were going to find a way to join.

So, now it makes sense why they've suddenly started calling gay people groomers. They were planning to get more heavy handed in their own grooming, so they needed to divert attention. Grooming the audience to get more excited about strapping on a bomb (or an AR) and going on a mass killing spree seems right on brand for CPAC.

Our government had already decided to join the war, we were just waiting for an excuse. If it wouldn't have been Pearl Harbor, it would've been something else.

Well, yeah, but only because the Supreme Court said so in Windsor. But you are having to count on them not just changing their minds, because we are all learning what it means to actually have an activist court.

Unless they are Republicans. Those celebrities we elect as mayors, congressmen and presidents. But yeah, fuck all those other celebrities for having an opinion.

Umm, that’s not sanitary buddy.

Headline isn't misleading for gay people. We know and have always known that in this country being gay is a reason that can be used to deny us services, to fire us, to deny housing, etc. depending on where we live. In Florida they are making gay teachers take pictures of their spouses off their desk and to never tell their students they are gay if they want to keep their job. It isn't that much of a stretch for those schools to also start retaliating against students who are open about being gay. We've seen schools use all kinds of tactics to discourage gay kids from organizing, from being open, etc, with them not enforcing bullying rules when the target is gay, by disallowing any kind of gay groups or even gay straight alliance groups, by firing teachers who come out, and any number of other things. So yeah, when I see that the Republicans are against this, I am specifically seeing that Republicans want to make it easier for schools to use breakfasts/lunches as a tool to keep gay people in line.

You would think cousins would treat each other better.

This isn't new, though. Seems like that dummy El Guapo was talking about this way back in the Hornfans days.

Let me insert my shocked face here. Oh wait, I can't because my shocked face can't make an appearance when there's nothing shocking about them being dicks.

There wasn't a single person in that audience that didn't look like they were born to be in that audience. You beat me to it!

Make sure they know their guzintas and they'll be fine in math.

Of course he's a smoker. And of course he litters. Dude. Smoking is for hanging out in bars in your 20's. Come on Alex.

I've seen some Russian porn, so obligatory 2,x,1

Yeah I know what you are recommending, but what you are recommending has a 0% chance of happening. My approach has a greater than 0% chance of happening.

Well I'm not joking. I don't want to see rape and brutality happening in our prison system, but I also don't mind that it happens, as long as it's just happening to the Jan 6 people. They've earned it. There will be 0 death penalties. There will be 0 hangings, public or otherwise. There will be up to 5 years in prison max for any of these people. That's not enough. I want them to get brutalized and/or raped and then to talk about it in the media. I want all the people thinking they may try this again to know what's waiting for them if they want to FAFO. Fuck them.

WTF does that mean?

I'm on board with all of that, but I'm ok if the rape and brutality don't get fixed in time to save the Jan 6 participants from it. Treasonous fuckers deserve worse than they are going to get from the justice system.
