every once in a while I remember that the 30 Rock universe has an Edward James Olmos impersonator named Edward James Almost and it carries me through the day

@techgirl1908 Had you a week ago when I voted, and I got you today. ❤️ #HarrisWalz2024

Heyyyyy white women! ❤️ You got us, right?

@BradleyOnishi I wonder if it's her & maybe she's had work done? (which also explains the long absence from the campaign trail) (but yeah, I wouldn't put it past them to use a double)

Not a conspiracy theorist but I don’t think that’s Melania.

@AlsoACarpenter (maybe it won't matter??) 🤞

@coffeecatharine really? you've got mail??? y'all are wild 😂

@profsamperry happy to report that if you take a break to eat a bowl of fritos + chili + cheese and watch hocus pocus, you will not feel any better

@clhubes 😂 this, though. And LADIES, SOME of y'all will be happier without kids, period (much less as trad wives), & you won't know it unless you hang out with moms & kids for x number of hours. That is what I did, & wow, can't recommend it enough if you have even a shred of doubt.

@roopikarisam youtu.be/p7aHDm5dxhs?si…

Apparently Tim Walz’s favorite R.E.M. is “Driver 8.” This prompted a “best R.E.M. song” argument in my house. It’s *really* hard to pick one, but I settled on “Fall On Me.” You?

@brent_waggoner ego death

What are your values?

@brent_waggoner Absolutely. And there's a whole other thread we could do about the *bullshit values we grew up with (e.g. sexual "purity").

@SunburnedSarah It does feel that way. Real values sometimes have a pretty low ROI in the short term. Power is much more appealing.

I don't think most people know what their actual values are.

@PastorBenMarsh what if I told you the ark was built out of gopher barky barky

I've struggled with how to talk about this in a way that doesn't sound condescending. I like this phrase: "Church is not for me." In the same way red onions aren't for me.

@Ethantp @deckthedan She gets on my nerves here & there, but I loved her on scrubs so I give her a pass. I mean, creator's-wife privileges I guess 😂

@deckthedan This character kills the show for me. Not funny, weird, unhelpful to the plot.

Let's all be today years old as we reassure each other that this is made up bullshit; there is no "right side" of your trash bags. Do whatever you want.

@BackwardsFeet @cecsquared correct.

@cecsquared Hellfire

Best Disney villain song?

@brent_waggoner Haha, UGH. Props to you for the kindness; I can't. Fuck these guys who make a living gaslighting other men into believing that a joyless, orgasm-less wife is the gold standard.

@SunburnedSarah Definitely. My wife and I read Sacred Marriage before we got married and I think that might be the ur-text for "marriage isn't meant to make you happy, it's meant to make you holy". Which, kindest interpretation, why not both??

I love being married but I don't like takes about how marriage is really hard or really easy. I've been married for 15 years and if you haven't had some of both, you probably will. That's not bad or good necessarily, that's life.

This is basically a long way of saying: Please stop using my people as props for your broken American evangelical theological agenda. Focus on fixing the deeply broken American Church before exporting your broken brand of Christianity and disrupting the Global South Church’s faithful work on the margins. Instead of patronizingly presuming what we need, spend time listening and asking about what we really need. Because what we need is the Western Church’s resources to reverse the effects of centuries of colonization. We don’t need more western missionaries; we need more safe water, food security, climate action, and trauma-informed justice systems.
