    A generic religion thread.

    Speaking solely from personal experience, the only folks who seem determined to tell me their faith story and alignment are militant/angry-atheists, and the really conservative breed of christian.

    Minor victory thread

    Growing up I was always a 'reader.' I plowed through fiction books at a considerable rate. And this kept up into adulthood. But I also realized recently that I haven't picked up a book for fun and finished it in... probably years now. I have a stack of unfinished good books that I want to...

    Funny (political, religious) pictures

    Side note: I HATE proof-texting. Taking a line or two out of context is a dangerous thing. Also, you can make scripture (I would argue any scripture, but Christian scriptures for sure) say whatever you want if you've got the rhetoric. So sayeth my Hebrew Bible prof at least.

    You've made me proof-text. I hate that. Best I can offer: Matthew 5:28-30.

    Gas Bandit's Political Thread V: The Vampire Likes Bats

    an "angry" emoji doesn't quite cut it here. A long string of cursing accompanied by unbridled rage, on the other hand, is a good start.

    :facepalm: I am the only person in my cohort of students to graduate on time. The rest are probably at least 6 months behind at a minimum. No procrastination here! (At least none that affected deadlines being met!)

    I had the trial run of my doctorate defense today. And it... Didn't suck? Like it was stressful as fuck, but the feedback I got was good and mostly expected. And none of the questions were absurd. So now I have to edit the thesis and get it polished. Then get my advisor's approval. Then defend...

    I have finished the hat to go with the cowl I made with the fancy Alberta wool. The band fit eriol, bit the stitch for the body of the hat is less stretchy. But it fits me! I ran out of well near the end, so had to substitute white cotton. I really like how this crochet stitch looks...
