I reject all incarnations of the addams family written like spooky goths who hate normies. The joke is that they're warm and welcoming and they don't even know that they're weird. Still might maim you though because they also think everyone else is into hardcore sadomasochism.

IN THE DARK TIMES, WILL THERE ALSO BE SINGING?

from Lady Chatterley's Lover, D.H. Lawrence (via)

“Grief will come to you. Grip and cling all you want, It makes no difference. Catastrophe? It’s just waiting to happen. Loss? You can be certain of it. Flow and swirl of the world. Carried along as if by a dark current. All you can do is keep swimming; All you can do is keep singing.”

YES, THERE WILL ALSO BE SINGING. ABOUT THE DARK TIMES.

my watery friend... are you too brushed with the pattern of the dappled light...?

Yeah, she does. I’m no longer a woman of faith for a lot of reasons, but it always makes me happy to hear one defend people rather than persecute them. She ain’t even being accusatory here! She’s askin for him to do good, to show mercy, and the fact that he and his constituents view that as an attack says a lot about them! I legitimately don’t know how so many people got brainwashed into voting for him again!

Sorry. Didn’t mean to get angry. But I gotta live under this jackass for the next four years.

If you’re looking to see a revolution, M. Sade, I don’t think you’re gonna see the kind of revolution you’re used to. No guillotines. No passing judgment on every poor soul who can’t fix society’s problems. Our revolution is one of survival. Living when he wants us to die. Staying when he wants us to go. Speaking up when he wants us to stay silent. Helping others when he wants us to not be able to help ourselves.

I’ve nearly been homeless. I’ve had entire years where the only food I could consistently afford was rice. I’ve had to break a lease because I could no longer afford to pay rent. I had the house I grew up in sold out from under me because the employer that my father was killing himself for for over a decade decided to kick him to the curb, and been told unspeakable things about what I can and can’t do with my own body by said father. I survived all of it. There are a lot of people out there who are surviving much worse. If we can survive all that, we can survive this fake orange moron and his lack of mercy.

This is our fight.

This is our revolution.

And if you’re reading my dramatic ramblings right now, this is your sign to keep fighting! Keep going! Keep living, and do what you can to help others keep living! Unity has always been the best weapon against oppression, but stubbornness is a damn close second.

President Donald Trump was directly called out to his face during a sermon at the Washington National Cathedral Tuesday.

Trump, Vice President JD Vance, and their spouses were in attendance for the church service at the progressive institution, and had to listen as Rev. Mariann Edgar Budde, the Episcopal bishop at the cathedral, delivered a direct appeal to the president to conclude her sermon.

“In the name of our God, I ask you to have mercy upon the people in our country who are scared now. There are gay, lesbian, and transgender children in Democratic, Republican, and independent families—some who fear for their lives,” Budde said, but didn’t stop at LGBTQ rights, going on to address Trump’s plans for mass deportations of undocumented immigrants.

“The people who pick our crops and clean our office buildings, who labor in poultry farms and meatpacking plants, who wash the dishes after we eat in restaurants and work the night shifts in hospitals—they may not be citizens or have the proper documentation, but the vast majority of immigrants are not criminals,” Budde continued.

The bishop then called on Trump “to have mercy, Mr. President, on those in our communities whose children fear their parents will be taken away, and that you help those who are fleeing war zones and persecution in their own lands to find compassion and welcome here.”

It was a bold address for a Christian leader to make to the famously thin-skinned president to his face, particularly since Trump has been avoiding confrontational appearances and interviews for several months. When asked about the prayer event later Tuesday, Trump was dismissive, telling the press that the service was “not too exciting” and “they can do much better.”

Supporters of the president were none too happy with Budde’s remarks, with Representative Mike Collins posting that the bishop should be “added to the deportation list” and pundit Charlie Kirk saying that “she disgraced herself with a lecture you’d hear on CNN or an episode of The View.”

But, following Trump’s inauguration, Budde has the honor of being the first person to publicly confront the president to his face, at a time when many Americans will be looking for some form of hope in the face of what could be a very dark four years. Perhaps Trump’s other opponents should take inspiration in their attempts to thwart the president’s immediate agenda.
