and in this case (in chiss) means not actually in csilla, but a) very politely and with appreciation for meticulous consideration for detail and also art, b) while having no visible pupils
maybe even time to write a very self indulgent chapter of a very self indulgent already fanfiction that's basically just
au darth vader accidentally stumbles into some part of the afterlife to meet thrawn and cipher nine as they yell BOOOOOO! BOOOO BLONDIE YA AIN'T SHIIIIIIIIIT at him (in chiss)
hand masks from lush are good praxis i mean good self-care because they are good for interrupting when you are getting mad on the internet. you have to go boil water, fix a bowl of stuff, wait for it to cool down, and then dunk your hands in it for 15 minutes. and when you're soaking your hands in something, you can't type to be angry on the internet.
and then you have soft hands!

@Sapphicgiraffic@snouts.online i can only take refuge in the fact that many of these folks will, i hope, make it to the pearly gates to be met with one hell of a "buddy.... sit down. we need to talk."
i mean i try to not wish people to go to hell but i think that would actually be worse.
or according to my sister maybe it ends up hell IS just god having an "i'm not angry just very disappointed" talk with you? who knows
anyway, fuck those guys

tldr if you treat your anti-religion sentiment as just another tool to "win" with, you are not actually correcting these abusive power structures
you just pulled out a cricket bat instead of a two-by-four to beat people with
how revolutionary. well done you.

i suppose i get so grumpy at this shit because so, so, so often it forms part of a one-two punch to belittle and exclude minorities from spaces that loudly proclaim tolerance. and it's far from just christianity that gets this treatment. "well, of course they're histrionic, and of course we had to stop allowing them to come here... what did you expect from people so silly that they think bacon is a sin?" (islamophobia or antisemitism or both - all very likely.)

ultimately, you must recognize that "L' Γ©tat, c'est moi!", and "let the king beware, for His justice tears every tyrant from his throne" are two very fucking different philosophies and to treat them as the exact same religion, and all practitioners therein as the exact same, is a pretty fucking big disservice -
even if you DO dismiss the personal experiences and values in play and look at it ONLY as power plays AND NOTHING MORE.

the religion of a minority is going to be fundamentally different from the person who society has said they have absolute rule, just as how the religion of a peasant is different from the religion of a king. i am tired of seeing the assumption that all there must be is kings who need to be mocked for believing in their supposed divine right, when a whole lot of us are in the back singing the canticle of the turning

"religion is only about controlling people and that's all it can ever be about all the time!!!" is such an incredibly tiresome opinion. it only becomes even more tiresome when it becomes espoused by evangelical atheists who think that they have won the game and have ULTIMATE POWER because atheism is the strongest tool to bash people over the head with at all times.
not a coincidence it's usually cishet white dudes pulling this shit
who am i kidding, that's probably a bog standard political opinion around here. i think i just did the equivalent of white person showing up at a holiday party potluck full of food made by someone's abuela with a bunch of salsa that contains exactly one de-seeded jalapeno per pint and then standing by the buffet warning people that it's spicy the entire night long
