"Indies will save us" No! YOU WILL SAVE INDIES! Go leave a review for that neat indie game you like, share the trailer for an upcoming game you're anticipating, tell your fave developer they did a good job, go tell people about such and such game that's just come out, you can make a difference!

Word of mouth is basically the only way small team projects can gain any traction. People hate ads with a passion, and ignore creators when they pitch their own work. But people will give something a chance when a person they know says they like something

It seems relevant that the thing Isaiah is being sent to do in that passage is to deliver a prophecy of doom to his own people for having fallen away from the path of righteousness. So if these guys were like, Isaiah, that would be robustly bad news for...the United States.

American Christianity in one social media post.

it can be difficult to make 12 year olds interested in st paul but they did enjoy the scandal when i mentioned 'yeah paul had to write a letter to the corinthians because some guy married his stepmother'. they also really go crazy for abraham and hagar too they love the tea

sometimes i overcorrect for the passage of time and am like. wait. this person was 18 when i was 20. so much time has passed. they must be like 12 years older than me now

The Starmer government is REALLY running scared of this petition, now at 2.75 million, to the extent that it has responded 3 months early, in a transparent attempt to spike it. So please, under no circumstances should you sign it and share it widely. Starmer & his boss McSweeney would not like it.

Petition: Do not introduce Digital ID cards

We demand that the UK Government immediately commits to not introducing a digital ID cards. There are reports that this is being looked at.

the grace of our lord jesus christ, the love of God, and the fellowship of the ring be with us all evermore

i thought this said patristics instead of padres and i was like no way are the theology nerds on bsky powerful enough to make this happen

Saw a lot of progressive Christians saying, “the Rapture is a recent fundy invention” which is true But they thought it ALSO meant “the Second Coming of Christ is a recent fundy invention” And I’m gonna need more churches (including mine) to recite the Creed more often 🤦🏼‍♀️ ⚓️

Jesus: I will come again, but no one knows when. Dont ask me, knowing the day & hour is none of your business. Just love God & your neighbor. All you gotta do to prepare is keep loving. Pretribulationist Premillenials every few years: Okay but its definitely happening on this day right? ⚓️

I think unprincipled people’s belief that they were outnumbered by principled people was load bearing and now that they’ve discovered it’s untrue, there is no unringing the bell.

The Republicans want to use Charlie Kirk the way Goebbels used Horst Wessel: they aim to exploit his death to make authoritarianism into a state religion. Describing Kirk as "a lifelong advocate for freedom of speech," they demand to silence all who stand in their way. legiscan.com/US/bill/HCR4...

the level of charlie kirk glazing im seeing from all the evangelical christians i know on facebook and virtually nobody else is deeply depressing

charlie kirk’s memorial service getting the coachella treatment

i think often about this discussion between Yoshiyuki Tomino and Hideaki Anno. it's one of the funniest ways anyone has ever talked about restraint vs self indulgence in art.

Eventually he arrived with a basket thrown over his back, which was leaking out sand. When asked why he carried the basket, Saint Moses stated, “I carry behind me my manifold sins where I cannot see them, & I come to judge my brother?” On hearing this, the other monks also forgave the guilty brother

[coquettishly] I hear your leitmotif incorporates the theme of the enemy empire

does anyone have the bdsm trinity tweet from like 5 years ago where they did a liturgy in the name of the dom the sub and the aftercare

While the gospels say that Judas led the Romans to Jesus, a new theory is gaining traction with some Biblical scholars. There is evidence, some say, that Judas merely shared Christ's location on an insecure group chat that accidentally included several Roman officials and journalists.

i went to a catholic easter vigil last night for a friend getting baptised and they had 11 people getting baptised + 2 getting confirmed so they went very hard on the baptism aspect in the readings/homily. which made sense, but it ended up feeling like an odd sort of conclusion to the triduum +

once again catholics have the right idea doing good friday at 3pm (at least in aus where it's a public holiday). that just feels thematically appropriate. none of this 9am nonsense.

Y’all ⚓️ — I’m curious about differences and patterns etc across Christian groups in how they tend to address God. 2 basic examples below. Is TEC known for anything (other than collect forms and similar)? Presbyterians/Reformed? Mainline at large? All input, insights, and recs welcomed/appreciated.

its so funny that discord has a universal time converter but has not implemented it into the ui in any way. you have to google for some nerd's website to convert to syntax for you. guys you've had like a decade to implement that properly

I have discovered a Lenten discipline that makes fasting seem not so bad ⚓️
