I’m just gonna say it. When writing things, you should never fuck with time. There are very good shows that do a good job of it, without it becoming the answer to everything.

Star Trek is not one of those shows. (Dr. who, comes to mind.)

Still over all enjoyed enterprise.

Which new show am I hating on?

(Also I liked enterprise. Just skip the last episode with Ryker apparently being Chef.)(discovery. Not so much.)

They’re not really being repressed though. Keep in mind, as nuns, they were technically employed by the church.

The church was (and still is,) faced with several problems- the aging building (a castle built in 1877), dwindling numbers of nuns (which means not enough people to care for the grounds or provide the kind of work that allows the nuns as a whole to do whatever kind of work they’re doing (a school, in this case.)

From the article, the church closed the nunnery down, and offered the three existing nuns the right to live there as long as their health was still good.

That declined, so they moved them to a care home.

The nuns didn’t like that so they ran away (sister act vibes, ngl.) and got some previous students to help and broke back in. Then, they began a social media campaign to pressure the church to let it go.

The church caved and said “fine”- they’re now taking the much more expensive option of live-in help, but on the condition they knock off the campaign that they feel makes them look bad.

It doesn’t seem terribly unreasonable, except in the whole “your employer controls your entire life”, but that was something that they more or less agreed to when they became nuns.

The reality seems like, maybe the church doesn’t care so much about dwindling numbers of nuns (and monks,) since this is actually a wonderful recruitment campaign… or could be. If Provost DipShit didn’t have a stick up his but.

Exactly.

She used a shitty source (and probably nothing else.)

Even if you say psychology is a wishy-washy science, it’s still science. The teacher failed her for not providing empirical evidence based on proper studies. The student is going to have a hard time of it, if her only response is to scream persecution. (And yes, that’s exactly what’s going on here.)

“Freedom of speech” is bullshit. She got to say what she wanted, and now she gets to get the grade she deserves.

FTA:

A psychology student at the University of Oklahoma says the failing grade she received on an essay where she cited the Bible was a violation of her right to free speech. Her instructors said she failed to use empirical evidence and called parts of her essay offensive.

In her essay, which was in response to an article about how people are perceived based on societal expectations of gender, junior Samantha Fulnecky wrote that traditional gender roles should not be considered stereotypes, according to an earlier Oklahoman report. She cited the Bible to support her stance that eliminating gender in society would be “detrimental” because that would put people “farther from God’s original plan for humans.”

It’s psychology, not religious studies. She got a failing grade because she said thing and used a shitty source to back it up. Psychology is not religious studies.

Need to snack on the crunchy chicks to get the evil modifier up. There’s a door with loot, after all.

It’s okay, because you can get even more loot by donating to a temple; and everyone forgets it.

loolz… touche.

which one sucks the best dick? that one.

but BiscuitTop + Bacon + Eggs + BiscuitBottom is definitely better than biscuit, or bacon or eggs.

And the 10% when you do… you were mismanaged!

cheating is the only way they can win.

feral cats are a colony, too.

In Paris, there was a spat of feral colonies going after tourists a while back.

Well. Once.

But I still think it’s funny to imagine it being a bigger problem.

This is funny because he once argued to get rid of the jet because people abused it

I think I prefer him not minding his job.

“Everything” - The mad alchemist.

And this is why cats are not allowed in the lab.

I like how the DHS account was from Israel.

Is it even a question?
