In Japanese a prefecture can end with -ken (or -do or -fu)
The joke was originally written as meri – Ken
So meri-ken (メリ県) In Japanese becomes meri– prefecture so grok kind of ruins the joke.

Once upon a time, we did. Now we just drink together and mourn the death of the story franchises we once loved.

My understanding WRT the term "consubstantiation" is that in pre-Reformation medieval philosophy it had two or three possible meanings, none of which is quite the Lutheran position, and thus we rejected it when Calvinists later used it to describe us. However, our position is that the sacrament is the body and blood of Christ, and it is bread and wine also, and we do not speculate as to the mechanism by which this is accomplished. Therefore we do specifically reject transubstantiation, as it holds the bread and wine are annihilated, while we say that they remain present as well as the body and blood of Christ.
So I would personally say that as a collection of lexemes, "consubstantiation" is fine for our position, but we reject it because it carries additional historic freight. But that is a layman's recollection, not an authoritative claim.

@RAZ0RFIST Hmm, okay, I did not know that. Thank you because now I need to revise a couple of my history lectures. So Lutheran confessionalists are okay with transubstantiation or something in between? I mean, I know they're not Zwinglians...

It's nice of Rome to admit Lutherans weren't actually Protestants after 500 years.
Dr Taylor Marshall™️@TaylorRMarshall
Protestants: “Ew! Y'all claim to eat the Body of Christ! That's cannibalism! Not biblical!” Catholics: “Cannibalism is eating a dead human. Jesus Christ is now alive! Resurrected! This is why Jesus taught: Amen, amen, I say unto you: except you eat the flesh of the Son of man and drink his blood, you shall not have life in you. (Jn 6:54) If you want His resurrected life, you must eat His Eucharistic Body. He said so.

It makes perfect sense that America and Japan would view Godzilla in opposite ways. They were on opposite ends of the bomb that inspired him.

Which means soon you're going to see some really giant steaks.

We got tons of giant steaks from America… so we’re sending Godzilla back to the U.S. from Japan🇺🇸🤝🇯🇵

The chief crisis facing America is that there is only one Justice Clarence Thomas.
Sensurround (センサラウンド)@ShamashAran
Yes, this is exactly right, Americans hate black people, and why the American Right also hates Justice Clarance Thomas with the exact same fervor.

Once there was a boy named Andrew Clarence Snyder, and he almost deserved it.

Ngl, with the exception of Shenanigans, I not only don't use these words, but have an averse reaction to being exposed to them. I can't even explain why; they're like clown words to me.

The past few days have convinced me that some sinister forces were running a massive social media psyop on the Japanese to convince them that Americans don’t like them, when in truth one of the few things most of us agree on is that Japan is pretty cool.

I have few kind things to say about New Jersey, but there is this:
They understand something fundamental about sandwich-making that the rest of the nation only stumbles upon occasionally by accident.
