THIS SCENE ABSOLUTE CINEMA You have no idea how utterly delighted I was seeing this badass gal beat the crap out of this man. This scene is EVERYTHING and it means so much to me. We absolutely need more buff/plus sized women in animation. I’ve never been more happy!! :D #KnightsOfGuinevere #KOG

KOG spoilers . . . . . . I decided to look at the end credits for who that new character was named since I didn't have the close captions on during the livestream. Thinking his name was "unknown security guard-cop" or something. His name is Armend. Like ARM-end....

Watched Episode 2 of Knights Of Guinevere last night and holy Fuck it was beautiful. Didn't know android gore was a genre I needed in my life, but it fits and I'm here for it. I do kinda wish Glitch would start a Peertube instance instead of relying on Google though. #KnightsOfGuinevere #Glitch

158. The Owl House: The Long Lived King (GN, 2026) God, this was a great read. It being allowed to get into the much darker material regarding death, and how that affects not just the entire cast, but especially King is just such a lovely read. The artwork, and paneling are also just so good.

Not a corporate shill, but it’s hard to put into words the impact of seeing a display of @aidenschmaiden.bsky.social’s Cemetery Boys - with its trans, gay, Latino protagonist - as the YA pick of the month at Barnes and Noble in my red state yesterday. 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈💗

Photograph of a small round table inside the American bookstore Barnes and Noble with a sign celebrating “Our Monthly Young Adult Pick: Cemetery Boys (by) Aiden Thomas.” Smaller white text below contains a blurb by K. Ancrum, author of The Wicker King: “A story much bigger than the paper that binds it, Cemetery Boys is the tender intricacy we have all been waiting for."
Stacks of the book surround the sign on both sides.

Venite might be one of my favorite web apps for liturgical matters I've recently come to find. venite.app #Episcopalian #Liturgical

A webpage screenshot displaying the liturgical text for The Holy Eucharist for the Fifteenth Sunday after Pentecost on September 6, 2026. The screen shows the heading "The Word of God," rubric instructions in red text for the celebrant and congregation, the opening dialogue beginning with "Blessed be God," and the start of "The Collect for Purity."

What is Christian Mysticism? Christian mysticism is Christianity approached as something to be directly participated in, not merely believed. An experiential movement into communion with God in which the truths of the faith gradually become realities of one’s own being.

If someone were to ask when I got saved, I’d probably say, with more than a little snark, “Right before Passover in 33 AD.” If they asked when I “accepted Christ,” I’d point to my baptism in November 1984, at the age of just 10 months old — when Christ and the Church accepted me.

Speaking of Yoru, I always think of this photo. Her face changed so much after becoming a house cat. She raised kittens on the streets too, so I’m sure she had a hard time

Two side-by-side photos of Yoru, a black-and-white tuxedo cat. On the left, Yoru is living outdoors as a stray, with a thinner face and a more serious expression. On the right, after becoming a house cat, her face looks fuller and softer as she relaxes indoors

heartbroken to learn the pope sympathizes with the poor. how can i continue to believe in god

The Pope tweets: "The poor are not there by chance or by blind and cruel fate. Nor, for most of them, is poverty a choice. Yet, there are those who still presume to make this claim, thus revealing their own blindness and cruelty. #DilexiTe"

Someone replies: "I was so hopeful I could be a Catholic again after the disaster that Francis was, guess we just get Francis 2.0 now and I am heartbroken. How do I stay a Catholic now...I don't want to lose faith but I am. You belong to someone else, not God."
