We have a list of virtues that we use as our “lectionary”. We choose one of them every month and then we both write a sermon on the topic. So the themes are the same, but the sermons are entirely different

I love having a co-pastor, because my sermons are like “The unrepentant rich who steal the wages of their workers will not be shown mercy on the day of judgment” and Elliott’s are like “This is the Parable of the Prodigal Son… with ✨MUPPETS✨” And I think that’s beautiful.

Your daily reminder that Protestants didn’t give two rat shits about abortion until the conservatives lost on segregation and needed a new thing to rile their evangelical base up about.

Your daily reminder that rapture theology is only a little over 200 years old and is mostly death cult horse shit concocted out of interpretations of an ancient political comic that confused even Martin Luther.

We've normalised children seeing exhausted parents for two hours a night, old people eating alone and adults needing permission to spend a sunny Wednesday with someone they love. None of this feels remotely sane to me.

Trump just ordered the flags lowered, and of course he did. Whether it was because she was so pure that there was room for her in even his shriveled heart, or because he knew that not doing so (or worse, saying something unhinged about her) may actually cause a riot.

It didn’t matter if you were black or white, gay or straight, republican, democrat or card carrying communist, if you were an American, you loved Dolly Parton.

Preacher from the Black Lagoon @revpoppop.bsky.social · 25/08/2026
No human is entirely above criticism, but Dolly was about as close as it got. Saying you hated Dolly Parton was almost guaranteed to ensure no one trusted you ever for the rest of your life.

Americans hate each other. Really and truly. We are on the precipice of a second civil war. We are a dying empire gasping for air. Dolly Parton was the only thing we ALL agreed on. She was a saint, and no one would dare say otherwise.

To those not living in the states, I don’t think you truly understand what has just happened. Dolly Parton was the Queen of America.

Every Queer after reading that “I’m gay not queer” article from that ungrateful little rat man.
Still shot from Sylvia Rivera’s famous “Yall better quiet down” speech, in which she calls out the white gay and lesbian community for leaving behind their trans, poor, POC and homeless community members.

I love WV politics so much dude. It’s so unhinged and the weirdest things can sway elections. I think WV libs/leftists really just need to play into the strangeness. Nobody’s gonna win on normal ass politics here. We are wild and wonderful for a reason.

So, enter Tia Fix. Tia is running for the commissioner seat and she has surged in popularity since this baby deer incident. It has become the centerpiece of her campaign. It’s gotten to the point where people are sending her various baby deer items to use in her ads.

The next day, the dispatcher was fired, and John Mandt was present for this firing. Many people believe that he wanted to get rid of the dispatcher because he had been there for 16 years and Mandt was looking for ways to not pay pensions. Again, he is a piece of shit.

They were on another call, and considering this was just a deer and not a bear or some other predator, they saw no need to rush away from what they were doing to solve this rambunctious teen/baby deer problem.

Like everything else in WV our animal control is extremely underfunded, despite the fact that we have A LOT of animals that need controlled here.

Recently a 911 dispatcher in our area got a call about a bunch of kids throwing rocks at a baby deer. This dispatcher, the hero of our story, called animal control, but this is WV.

John Mandt is also a major league piece of shit. Lots of slurs thrown around by this man. And he HATES Muslims and gay people the most.

So the county commissioner position is currently being held by a man named John Mandt. John Mandt owns a local hot dog stand. His hot dogs taste like shit. Jim’s and Hillbilly Hotdog are the superior WV hot dog locations.

Should we have UFC on the White House lawn? Probably not. But yall are making yourselves look tragically un-fun by talking about the “dignity of the office” right now. We are long past dignity. The best thing that can happen now is that the Dems host the AEW and get Nyla Rose out there.
