Pope Leo XIV’s top ally in Washington Cardinal Robert McElroy has told Catholics to convert the politicians who tolerate Trump’s war on immigrants “or replace them.” He was met with a standing ovation.

HEY PORTLAND Jefferson High School is doing my play about RPGs and online harassment and misogynist violence in geek spaces, and I'm wildly excited to see it again onstage for the first time since Ida B. Wells High School premiered it in 2018 Hope you all can make it! I'm proud of this one

A hand-drawn theatre poster which says

The Jefferson Democratic Dramatics Presents:
Red Sky at Morning
By Claire Willett

The illustration is of a desktop computer covered in miscellaneous nerdy stickers - a pair of crossed battle axes, a lesbian flag, a skull, lots of yellow stars, etc - with an image onscreen that looks like a chat room where messages are being exchanged, a couple text boxes and then an image where you can see a triangular red flag.

Below the image is a content warning for "some strong language and mature themes" as well as the show information:

Performance Dates:
Friday Oct 23, 7 pm
Saturday Oct 24, 2 pm and 7 pm
Friday Oct 30, 7 pm

The Pope reminds me of a version of Catholicism I knew growing up as a young man attending anti-war and anti-death penalty protests, where I met elderly Catholics who shared their version of faith with me. I learned that Catholicism was about love and mercy for the weak, the condemned, and the poor.

Please share the application with anyone you think might be interested and help us spread the word! Here’s a bit more about Periplus, why we exist, and how we assess fellowship applications:

Periplus is a mentorship collective serving U.S. writers who identify as Black, Indigenous, or people of color. We’re happy you’ve found us. We’re looking for mentees—Periplus Fellows—who are located in the United States, and are at least 18 years old, and whose writing shows great promise. We are seeking to mentor writers who are relatively early in their careers and would especially like to award fellowships to those with limited past access to writing resources and supportive communities. We aim to equalize access so that writers can achieve their goals regardless of their background and affiliations.

In assessing your application, we’ll be most focused on the promise we see in your writing sample. We will also consider how helpful a Periplus Fellowship could be for your craft and career.

If you’re near LA, the Bay Area, or New York City, join a rally to demand our leaders stand strong against a Paramount-Warner Brothers merger. Oakland: www.mobilize.us/notabovethel... NYC: www.mobilize.us/notabovethel... LA: www.mobilize.us/notabovethel...

No Concessions.
Block the Merger.

Twelve state AGs sued to block Paramount's takeover of Warner Bros. We raised our voices about how this mega merger would lead to job losses, fewer creative opportunities, more censorship, and reduced free expression. In a stunning blow to Paramount, the AGs filed suit and a judge issued a restraining order.

Now we need to take action to make sure the Attorneys General stand strong!

RALLY WITH US!
• Oakland: 9/20 5pm @ CAAG Office, 1515 Clay St
• NYC: 9/21 9am @ NY AG' Office, 28 Liberty St
• LA: 9/22 10am @ WGA West HQ, 7000 W 3rd

“the harder you excommunicate us, the harder we will pray that your cold dead Grinch heart will grow three sizes and you will realize how wrong and misguided and sinful and bad and mean you have been, and we will stand benevolently ready to accept your apology on that day” are you bitches for real

These recent condemnations, like those of the past, strike at what we hold most dear: our attachment to our Mother, the Roman Church. Yet, even in this trial, all things must
work together for the good of souls and of
the Church herself. Therefore, these condemnations compel us to love Holy
Church even more, and to provide for her needs with all our strength, now more than ever. For this very reason, the Society of Saint Pius X willingly offers up the suffering caused by these new sanctions for the good of the universal Church and of Your Holiness.

But above all, the Society of Saint Pius X promises You today that it will not receive
these new sanctions-objectively unjust and
invalid—with bitterness or revolt.
