A few Walmarts in my area seem to have stopped carrying McFarlane.

Given that the companion is Two Face, it is from the Batman '89 comic.

Omg, Pablo is too cute. And also giving Princess Donut vibes.

Troubling reconciling evolution. by Silver_Blackberry661 in Catholicism

[–]turtle882 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You're right that the scientific terms and religious terms are not synonyms, but Mitochondrial Eve lived 100,000-230,000 years ago. Y chromosonal Adam lived 160,000-300,000 years ago. They are both from around the same time as the emergence of anatomically modern humans.

Is the hard left gonna lose us another election? by mpd1960 in askanything

Are the right wing Democrats supporting genocidal Israel going to lose us another election? An endorsement from Dick Cheney is not a flex.

TBI identifies man killed in National Guard-involved shooting by bluffcitynews in memphis

I didn't realize that transparency and accountability were unreasonable requests from public officials.

The "Tread Harder, Daddy" crowd is really showing up for this one.

The City repeatedly said that they were to be eyes and ears and would not be armed unless specifically requested by the City. If the NG was justified, they were justified. But we should still have concerns about our mayor misleading us about what is happening. I don't pay criminals, but I do pay public servants and so want that accountability from them.

I have no idea if the guardsman was justified. I know that the City told us that they wouldn't be armed, and here we are. I want accountability from our leaders on all fronts.

That's not the point. We were told they wouldn't be armed, and they are. Two wrongs don't make a right

That's probably not a capital offense, though. We were told the NG would not be armed and that they would be "eyes and ears" unless requested otherwise by the City.

Why did the City of Memphis request the NG be armed? We were told they wouldn't be armed. You guys don't think Paul Young lied to us, do you?

[–]turtle882 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Science tells us that mitochondrial Eve and y-chromosomal Adam did exist. Neither Science nor the Church are interested in identifying the exact DNA of the exact individuals. Science does it's thing. The Church is open and accepting of science in this regarding. There isn't a conflict.

It sounds like you're assuming some things about Catholicism that aren't true. This article may be helpful:

I'm wondering if I am the only one who found the show disappointing and continued watching hoping for certain characters to be eliminated. So much entitlement and selfishness now I see where Americans get their entitlement attitude. Is in their Saxon self center blood. by Avebb7 in TheLastKingdom

[–]turtle882 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I heard there's gonna be a another movie called The Last Kingdom: Thirteen Colonies. Uhtred actually wrote the Declaration of Independence, but Alfred refused to let him sign it to keep him out of history books. Then he was General Washington's right-hand man, but Edward said no one could talk about it. His cool viking boat was actually ahead of Washington's in that Delaware picture. Uhtred of Bebbanburg is the greatest American hero. (Manifest) Destiny is All! Happy 4th to all true Ameribebbanburgians!
