Yet another example of “look at my leftists, dawg, etc etc”

How is this substantially different from “we harm disadvantaged communities by giving them handouts instead of encouraging them to pull themselves up by their bootstraps” Yes, how leftist of you. It is, in fact, the most leftist to be against welfare, very good and correct, great leftism everyone

What’s supremely depressing is that I love kids and up until pretty late in life always assumed I’d be a mom. If I was in a safe family, maybe I *would* have kids by now… but that path has been made untenable to me, unless I want to completely cut everyone in my social safety net off

Thank you. I really need to hear this. Articles like this make me feel so guilty about not marrying a man and having children, like this is something I am doing *to* my parents, like I’ve victimized them somehow for not doing something I have little interest in doing.

We are reckoning with the fact that women are people who are just as important as and who deserve the same rights as men. I’m sorry if it‘s making the population numbers weird, but that doesn’t mean we don’t have to have the reckoning — it’s been a long time coming

This thread made me chuckle about a topic that causes me almost physical pain. Thanks for that

Formative movie for me as a 90s baby was the original Snow White on VHS Sometimes I think kids are more open to “old” stuff than adults are!

tractors, big boy! Try living large on your John Deere without urban centers to build that thing for you! Don’t want to go back to farming with hoes and horse ploughs? Great. Cut the crap.

Not to mention the PhD geniuses who make modern farming possible. You wanna pull this “We feed you” schtick (oh, but do you? Or does the exploited and precarious undocumented underclass that you routinely vote to terrorize/ the enslaved prison population feed us?)? Okay! We build your fancy

Not an artist, but I was big into painting as a hobby at the time. Did multiple studies on canvas. Partway through the pandemic, I just couldn’t do it anymore. Haven’t finished a canvas since, and any other painting (like on furniture, etc) I do now is small, sporadic, often left unfinished

The gall of this. There was just a major news story about a popular website full of videos of men presumably drugging and raping their wives, as well as group chats full of men teaching other men how to do this to *their* wives. Cut the shit about how men are largely decent

It’s sad, but attention has not been a positive for me. At this point in my life, I would rather most people who are not my close friends just leave me alone

I do wonder how much of a difference there is in this sentiment in people who have faced persecution as visible minorities vs. people who haven’t As a member of the former, I take great comfort in Not Being Perceived and would rather most people forget about me most of the time

A lot of proverbial ink has been spilt on the so-called “Trump derangement syndrome“ I think a review is in order as to just how much conservative white Catholics had an “Obama derangement syndrome“. As someone who saw this movement, regrettably, from inside the Church, I find it hard to believe

“Apollo dodgeball meme”

A photo of one girl labeled “Apollo” winding up to throw a dodgeball labeled “the gift of prophecy” at a gaggle of three other girls, collectively labeled “random internet users just trying to be comedic”

can all do with a regular reminder of that, which is half the reason I even attend Mass at all anymore.) But I just had to chuckled at this Homily being given to all the nice casual folks who only attend for Christmas and Easter. Catholic Church gonna Catholic Church, I guess.

nonvaldeboni.bsky.social @nonvaldeboni.bsky.social · 05/04/2026
My local Catholic priest’s Easter Day homily was all about letting Jesus love you… by accepting that you are not a good person. Lmao. Honestly I’m not even totally against this kind of attitude (I personally believe that we are all worse people than we imagine ourselves to be, and I think we

Like, let’s not put our heads in the sand about this. There is a reason that so many fascists convert to Catholicism. The purpose of a system is what it does, and all too often the purpose of the Catholic Church has been to act as a handmaiden to fascist parties.

nonvaldeboni.bsky.social @nonvaldeboni.bsky.social · 04/04/2026
I have had to endure multiple talks in the congregation from my parish priest about how not voting against this or that referendum will allow for the govt to trans your child or whatever. These moves are organized. They come from the top down. And they are convenient for even worse actors.

nonvaldeboni.bsky.social @nonvaldeboni.bsky.social · 04/04/2026
And when it comes to persecuting these minorities, the Catholic Church is all too happy to cosign with its powerful, networked coalition.

nonvaldeboni.bsky.social @nonvaldeboni.bsky.social · 04/04/2026
One of the first moves of a fascist regime is to go after outsiders and minorities, and time and time again this includes the gender and sexual other. They are an easy target for rhetoric that wants to present the “natural” “patriotic“ “family” way of life as under attack from pernicious forces.

nonvaldeboni.bsky.social @nonvaldeboni.bsky.social · 04/04/2026
I am not an outsider. (Like— there is a reason I know what my local parish gets up to, friend) And as for the kind of militant anti-transness and anti-queerness in general that is found in the average Catholic enclave, I strongly disagree that this is not inherently friendly to fascism.

nonvaldeboni.bsky.social @nonvaldeboni.bsky.social · 04/04/2026
You know, the kind of heroic love Christians like to think they are the only people capable of providing, flattering themselves with stories of so-called Christian charity. Catholics do not benefit from being graded on a curve against other Christians. I say this from experience.

nonvaldeboni.bsky.social @nonvaldeboni.bsky.social · 04/04/2026
But friend, isn’t that a low bar? I say this as someone who was once a VERY devout Catholic and one of those “religious bigots” as I was raised to be, before non-Christian people showed me a lot of kindness and patience that I did not deserve and I saw how I was hurting myself and others.

fairly-blue (or at least blueish purple) islands. This is mainstream behavior. I want to roll my eyes so bad at Catholics On Here who are like, “oh, why won’t the fascist converts leave little-old-us alone, we never did nothing to nobody!” Be so for real, guys. This is exhausting

The weekend after Alex Pretti was killed, my local large, mainstream, middle-of-the-road (read: not considered to be particularly trad, not Latin Mass) parish priest announced that they would be hosting a talk on the evils of “gender theory”. I live in a red state, but I’m in one of the rare

something else, something more benign and blameless. I can’t believe I have to constantly explain this to people who love to beat their chests about valuing the “capitol-T Truth”. How about we tackle the lowercase t truths first, big guy. I‘m not sure I trust you even with those!
