The Episcopal Church is one of many with women clergy and one of quite a few that show up to pride events -- but that's just by way of fact-check; to the broader point, hells yeah they're liberal and fabulous as all that.
If you take sexual advantage of her, you're going to burn in a very special level of hell. A level they reserve for child molesters and people who talk at the theater.

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?

They do like their booze!
I took N&G to an Episcopalian church thing (Messy Church!) three weeks go. Messy Church events always have a meal. They had beer and wine! LOVE THESE PEOPLE. Well, not just for the wine and beer, but for the fact that at least 4 people came over to take Grace and do something with her. No one batted an eye, but they helped her bake bread and put prayer offerings in the box and make a pyramid.
I think any group that is willing to welcome and love my disabled daughter is a worthy group.
That just made me teary. I think I best go lie down and sleep.

Trust my rage
One of the things I love about my Methodist church is that they are so inclusive. I don't think every Methodist church is like that, but this one seems to welcome everyone. It's funny because I was trying to describe it to my mom and the words that came out were "It's so...Christ-like." Which made us laugh because, shit, shouldn't all churches be like that?

What was that old line? ”Wherever there's four Episcopalians there's a fifth."

Sadly, no. When I was in highschool, in Greensboro, NC, our Methodist church had a festival that included a whack-a-mole table. Only instead of moles you were supposed to "beat a Baptist," "crack a Catholic," etc. It was fairly vile. And the ministers just looked confused when I got upset about it.

Yes. Yes, all Christian churches should.

Cats to become a rabbit should gather immediately now here
I have a weird question-- Cosplay isn't about sex, right? Everytime I read it, I think it is a fetish, and have to remember that it is not. Or is it? Or am I thinking of pony play?

I think cosplay is just dressing up. Whether you have sex while dressed up or not is optional.
The picture of Obama on the front page of the Times makes him look so tired. I don't agree with what he's doing, but I still feel sorry for him.

Or am I thinking of pony play?
That's the fetish. I mean, there may be people who cosplay My Little Pony or whatever, but I think that, by and large, pony play means fetish.
Pony pony pony. (I know it's TMI for a Monday morning [or, possibly, ever], but I *love* pony play. LOVE.)

Peoples, I spotted a bacon bloody mary at brunch yesterday. Lisah & Sarameg, this was at One Eyed Mikes. Apparently, it was delicious.
