Thinking about rereading tsc because I obviously like pain and suffering

[caffeinatedopossum]

I feel like I'm going to throw up, there's something so wrong with me and with the world. It's not okay, how can anyone be okay

Not in a box

Yesterday was Epiphany.

Because the Church still knows that Christmas Day is the start of Christmas (not the end), every nook and cranny of the Church was still joyfully stuffed with all of her Christmas best.

Looking at the nativity scene, the wisemen had finally made it to see the Holy Family. The perfect visual for last Sunday’s Gospel. And the last thing – at least for Christmas.

Later that afternoon, it would all be carefully packed up for another year. By Monday, there would be no trace of the glorious excess. And Christmas would finally yield Epiphany.

Not because Christmas is done. But because we’ve packed up Christmas – to take home with us.

That’s the point of Epiphany. Not to put Christmas away, but to take Christmas away – with us.

To take all of the Christmas stuff – not just the decorations, but all that God has given to us – with us.

So that on Monday, the glorious excess is not in a box. It’s in us, in our hearts.

So that we can begin the work of Christmas,

“When the song of the angels is stilled,

When the star in the sky is gone,

When the kings and princes are home,

When the shepherds are back with their flock,

The work of Christmas begins:

To find the lost,

To heal the broken,

To feed the hungry,

To release the prisoner,

To rebuild the nations,

To bring peace among others,

To make music in the heart.”

– Howard Thurman

Recently learned you need to be diagnosed professionally with autism before age 24??? I think to be able to ever receive any disability benefits for it. I learned this because 2 of my younger brothers got prof diagnosed so me and my other bro were looking into it but it’s too late for us to receive any support I guess lol

I tried sending you a pigeon with a message for our encounter on mount Olympus but pigeon reception over here is really bad, I'm only getting seagulls and sparrows ffs. Can't we just whatsapp each other like the mortals do?

No because we are not like them.

i dont consider myself a 'fashion guru' by any means but one thing i will say is guys you dont need to know the specific brand an item you like is - you need to know what the item is called. very rarely does a brand matter, but knowing that pair of pants is called 'cargo' vs 'boot cut' or the names of dress styles is going to help you find clothes you like WAAAYYYY faster than brand shopping

dear usamerican high schoolers looking for a way to resist fascism: sit through the pledge of allegiance.

no getting up. no looking at the flag.

everyone will be looking at you. you'll be sweating like a fucking hippopotamus. your teacher will sternly tell you to get up. you'll feel stupid and that maybe its not worth it because you're just a kid in a classroom. but I'm here to remind you that there are no real life consequences to detention. there are however real life consequences to resisting a thoughtless performance of nationalism.

“Covid game me narcolepsy” no you fucking pervert it didn’t. You’re just a weirdo with a gross fetish. Covid didn’t make you suddenly want to fuck dead people. Keep that shit to yourself you gods damned weirdo

I have type 2 Narcolepsy. Studies have shown that serious viral infections can cause people to develop Narcolepsy if they are already genetically susceptible to having it. This includes covid. That is what happened to me.

You on the other hand might want to google the difference between Narcolepsy and Necrophilia….

oh my god...

so the first screenshot is trying to look this up on tiktok normally, "donald trump rigged election" and it says that search violates community guidelines.

the second screenshot is looking up the same exact thing, but with a (australian) vpn on. canadian vpn didn't fix it fyi.

THIS is exactly the type of censorship to be looking out for on tiktok. this actually is crazy.
