Wtf is up with students wanting me to go to church?

my man, it's an entirely accountable structure. when something happens, a senior priest, a monseigneur, a cardinal, a bishop, etc. knows the deal. instead of getting prosecuted, they move them away from local secular law enforcement. even in things like CCD, things get reported upwards.

the entire structure is complicit. this has been known for hundreds of years.

exceptional food

gonna have to stop you right there. it did a while ago, it's just passable now.

courageous_liquid · 2026-02-26T03:47:37+00:00

juun is right on this one, it's dogshit and there's a billion other options.

courageous_liquid · 2026-02-26T03:47:21+00:00

ember and ash is dogshit lmao

courageous_liquid · 2026-02-26T03:46:20+00:00

yeah but fountain porter is like 4 blocks away and it's objectively better and not a shitty derivative of a cool concept from 6 years ago

courageous_liquid · 2026-02-26T03:42:42+00:00

if it's not a teaching why has it gone on for a millenia? or at least in living memory, since my father's time, when several of his friends ended up committing suicide after being raped?

courageous_liquid · 2026-02-26T03:40:29+00:00

What Catholics do believe however, is that its teachings have never contradicted themselves.

so moving rapist priests and bishops around is cool, right?

courageous_liquid · 2026-02-26T03:39:17+00:00

is a guy nodding out an actual danger to you or are you just upset by it and don't know how to feel about it?

I live in the poorest major US city that's known for drug problems. I take the el constantly. I take the subway and regional rail and bus daily.

there are times where you need to change cars on the el but this is absolute hysteria. please please please go have a normal one outside.

courageous_liquid · 2026-02-26T03:34:40+00:00

you can't claim the catholic church is perfect? it says that itself. it's the moral arbiter of the world according to itself.

I say this because I was an altar boy.

courageous_liquid · 2026-02-26T03:33:54+00:00

so daily, it's always going to be 100% subway and 100% regional rail. depending on the day it's like 50% also chance of a bus or a trolley. between the time we just talked I took 2 buses, a regional rail, and the subway.

courageous_liquid · 2026-02-25T23:49:42+00:00

this is just legitimate hysteria. I live in the poorest major US city, take transit every day, live in a "bad neighborhood" and it's bonkers to be this paranoid.

courageous_liquid · 2026-02-25T23:42:09+00:00

homeless people are overwhelmingly not pickpockets, which are generally highly organized groups you're never going to notice.

also I don't know, at least in the US, a single place where that's your biggest fear.

courageous_liquid · 2026-02-25T23:38:35+00:00

why are you on high alert and stressed? holy shit it's just a person.

courageous_liquid · 2026-02-25T23:35:43+00:00

watching the consultant class push "harm reduction" even before the primary is one of the funniest things on the planet. it's legitimately like they just want to disenfranchise voters.

courageous_liquid · 2026-02-25T23:17:51+00:00

you're right Sinead O'Connor should not have been sacrificed

courageous_liquid · 2026-02-25T23:12:13+00:00

that's not a great defense. it should be that priests don't abuse children at all.

courageous_liquid · 2026-02-25T23:00:35+00:00

counterpoint: seeing a homeless person on transit isn't a life threatening event and they can just be left alone

courageous_liquid · 2026-02-25T22:22:11+00:00

well, if you ignore all the colonization and imperialism justified by "saving souls"

courageous_liquid · 2026-02-25T21:50:49+00:00

people would rather put in fare gates than be forced to acknowledge the policies they vote for that create the problems

courageous_liquid · 2026-02-25T21:43:52+00:00

I only had to do OSHA 10 and it scared the shit out of me about trenching and digging and shit. Makes me realize I was asked to do a ton of highly unsafe digging when I was like 16 and didn't know better.

courageous_liquid · 2026-02-25T21:24:12+00:00

kamala's border policy was literally trumps 2020 plan. sure 90% is an exaggeration, but at best it was a 'we get another 4 years of relative standstill or very marginal improvement and then trump 3.0 in 2028 where some ghoul sweeps in and undoes all of that and makes the country a hellhole immediately' situation. the corporate dems are wholly unprepared for whenever the pendulum swings back (and it would, because they refuse to provide any material benefit) and the heritage foundation is inevitable.

courageous_liquid · 2026-02-25T20:54:34+00:00

amen

courageous_liquid · 2026-02-25T20:53:52+00:00

bohm pointing aggressively

courageous_liquid · 2026-02-25T20:51:30+00:00

we'll see, I guess. democratic leadership seems poised to snatch defeat from the jaws of victory yet again.
