🚨 Oscar Isaac confirms what we’ve been suspecting all along

“We all know about the epic love story of you and Pedro Pascal. If there is any other actor who could possibly steal away your affections, who would that be?”

You teach your son your craft. You are a carpenter, and poor. It's hard work, but an honest one: a skill you've honed for years and years. It's the most important thing you have that you can bequeath him - a livelihood which he can use to carve out his own. You teach your son how to swing a hammer, so if he becomes a carpenter in the future, he will know how to use it, and not hurt himself in the process.

I'm glad Joseph died before the Crucifixion.

Can we become we No longer known as just you and me Two separate lives now in unity Stuck here together but Will this always be just an arrangement?

Can we become more Than half of a union we′re chosen for? Where I am your best half And I am yours Stuck here forever And hopefully not ending in estrangement

It's the step of faith We have to take sometimes (if I′m with you, I can take it) But if we are one What happens to you and I? (If I'm with you, I will make it)

Will this always be just an arrangement We'll find out in time if we don't break it

Can mine become yours Combining our dreams Without keeping score? Always together, but never bored No choice in the matter but This will never work without each other

Can we become we? (Can we become we?) Start a new line on this family tree Two hearts connected by one beat Your hand in mine and I could never choose to love another Maybe one day I can learn to love you, too

ID: Tweet by Zach W. Lambert featuring a quote from Michael Frost reading, "When male pastors call on us to recover something called 'biblical manhood' I suspect they're not thinking of the silent, loyal Joseph submitting himself humbly to his wife's God-given calling." It's accompanied by a painting by Matt Chinworth of Joseph, who has dark curly hair and beard, holding the newborn Jesus close to his chest, while Mary sleeps on a pile of hay in the background.

A reply tweet by @ BGWritesStuff reads, "It hit me that this is the first time in my 46 years of life that I've seen a picture of Joseph holding Jesus"

And my hands are bloodied as the hands of all great men of history are bloodied, Alexander, Caesar, Frederick the Great, Napoleon (softly) Stalin. In the domain of history, blood is more efficient fuel than gasoline is, it leads you to eternity. […] I go back to the dead who have given birth to me, Jesus Christ was a son of man, I am the son of the dead.

The Birth of Jesus

1 And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Cesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed. 2 (And this taxing was first made when Cyrenius was governor of Syria.) 3 And all went to be taxed, every one into his own city. 4 And Joseph also went up from Galilee, out of the city of Nazareth, into Judea, unto the city of David, which is called Bethlehem; (because he was of the house and lineage of David:) 5 to be taxed with Mary his espoused wife, being great with child. 6 And so it was that, while they were there, the days were accomplished that she should be delivered. 7 And she brought forth her firstborn son, and wrapped him in swaddling clothes, and laid him in a manger; because there was no room for them in the inn. — Luke 2:1-7 | Cambridge Paragraph Bible (CAMB) The Cambridge Paragraph Bible of the Authorized English Version, by Scrivener, Frederick Henry Ambrose, 1813-1891. Published by Cambridge University Press. Cross References: 1 Samuel 16:4; Micah 5:2; Matthew 1:18; Matthew 1:25; Matthew 4:24; Matthew 22:17; Matthew 24:14; Luke 2:12; Acts 5:37

My review of Hell Followed With Us by Andrew Joseph White copied and pasted from Goodreads

I have never written a review before but I need to. This book, I have no words is just beautiful in its own fucked up way.

I am a trans 15 year old boy with autism and full of rage who hasn’t gotten a chance to express himself. I grew up in the church and when Covid hit I figured out myself. Im an atheist and unapologetically gay. But the guilt still weighs down on my shoulders like God is watching me disappointed in me. This book made me feel seen. Made me feel heard, I no longer feel alone in my anger or sadness that bares over me.

I see why this book isnt for everyone and anyone who decides they want this book read the trigger warnings, this book is gory and not for the faint of heart. But if you decide to read it I hope you experienced it the way I did. I couldnt put it down and finished it in one day. The characters felt real. And every time something happened I had to put the book down for a moment and pace and stim because I was so full of excitement thinking about what was going to happen.

TLDR: Be gay, make lizards, read the TW’S, and Andrew Joseph White is an amazing author who deserves more recognition than the world could give him

This guy doesn't even know that it came to pass in those days that a decree went out from ceaser Augustus that all the world should be registered (this census first took place while Quirinius was governing Syria) and so all went to be registered everyone to his own city 😂😂
