@Bashabez honestly there are quite a lot of ways to cut that one particular verse and you will find quite a lot of discussion on it, so it might be more ambiguous than you would initially think. tbh if you REALLY want to get into picking it apart hebrew letter by letter, jewish scholars are miles ahead of christians in that regard lmao, and have largely come to the conclusion that the talmud is ok with queer folks (from what i have seen of jewish friends discussing this).

anyway i think sodom and gammorah is a story well worth teaching

when you look at what it actually says, which is, "towns full of people protecting rapists are not something the Lord appreciates"

let us pause to reflect on all the good little bible belt towns full of people who go to church every sunday and say "but it's just boys being boys! she's a slut anyway! he's got a football career to think of" and what is going to happen to them. AMEN

@Bashabez nah u good, it's honestly one of the most vastly misinterpreted parts of the old testament! or rather people repeat a fiction of what they think it is

which i think is a real shame because "god didn't appreciate them being gay" very much pales in comparison to "so god sent some angels in disguise and the response of the people there was to try to get everyone to come rape their guests, at which point god said Nuke It From Orbit It's The Only Way To Be Sure" lmao

honestly looking at a lot of the tone i take in replies especially on here, i'm fairly certain i should have just introduced myself with "hello fediverse of computerfairi.es! i'm your mother now"

sorry about that, i forgot that you can indeed add in a cw in replies

@Bashabez i can actually give a semi-serious answer to this tho this is probably not why you made such a toot:

it's far more about the towns violating hospitality culture at the time by offering up visitors as "lol anyone wanna come rape these guys" for the town, which is a seriously shitass move. ancient hebrews and surrounding cultures of the time were deadly serious about welcoming guests hospitably, and inviting people to sexually assault them was much more the serious violation

@Jacki@radical.town oh hey i might know something for this! https://www.askdoctorjo.com/ is a nice collection of videos with her stepping through a lot of different physical therapy stretches, so maybe it will help the anxiety voices a bit to go "hey look, we're doing it like she says, calm down"?

unless it's a totally different type of stretching in which case i alas got nothin

that's the biggest chronically ill #spoonie mood right there. "this is gonna hurt, GONNA DO IT ANYWAY"

nota bene, i don't mean hurting myself in, like, a si sort of way. i mean i have a fucky shoulder lol, please don't be alarmed

i know both that every time i get stubborn and draw anyway, i end up hurting myself, but honestly, i am going to draw anyway. send some good artistic vibes my way so that i can at least feel it is worth it lol

i really really want to draw but i think if i do i'm going to really really regret it because my shoulder will yell for the next five million years but but but hhhhhhhh

probably my worst and most controversial #lolitafashion opinion:

combat boots are good and should be allowed. it's a good look. it's a very fucking good look. not just for military lolita or punk lolita. put combat boots with your sweet fluffy pink dress. GOOD. LOOK.

oh thank god, the bakers have extended discourse about what the fuck lukewarm water is actually, with temps listed in f, and i can glean knowledge from them

a sign of adulthood: very excited to set up my electric kettle that i got exclusively because it has a setting where it can heat water to a relatively low temperature, thus making it perfect neti pot use temp for putting up my nose

a sign of not quite yet adulthood: i have absolutely no idea what temperature to set it to so i'm probably going to have to do a lot of poking water worriedly trying to not burn myself lol

small brain: this is a terrible reflection of america's fucked up gun culture, the militarization of our daily life and -

galaxy brain: BUY IT AND USE IT EXCLUSIVELY TO SEASON FOOD

amazon really wants to sell me one of those "a-salt rifle" things in pink camo people use to shoot flies

it is a good day for dollie stuff, with my late christmas present from my mom coming today (a bandai bodychan - listen, the anime style face is enough room for me to paint a faceup on... maybe...... probably.....), plus a leather jacket and dress for the bjds

@007@mastodon.xyz yup! tho that's a bit more of a complete collection than the ones i found - sadly quite bland by and large

i do like that one where the woman's playing chess and dad bod krampus is looking stressed out tho lmao
