I kinda feel like people should be more upset by the non-consentual nature of Zeus's affairs with mortals in mythology, instead of just kink-shaming him for being a swan at the time.

I like the old Irish myth 'The Dreaming of Aengus'. It features the god of youth and love experiencing lovesickness as a physical ailment. They call physicians in and everything. It's a fantastical tale, but like all good myths it hits something timeless. #love#celtic#pagan
Republicans called FDR a "socialist" for passing Social Security.
They called Lyndon Johnson a "socialist" for passing Medicare.
They called Barack Obama a "socialist" for passing the Affordable Care Act.
Now, they're calling Democrats "socialists" for seeking decency.
So... when did Bernie become just "an old white man"? I seem to remember hearing "a Jew won't win, there's too much anti-Semitism in America" a few years back.

“MLK used to teach, “cowardice asks the question, is it expedient?
And then expedience comes along and asks the question, is it politic?
Vanity asks the question, is it popular?
Conscience asks the question, is it right?“
HOW DID THE UNITARIAN UNIVERSALISTS *STILL* NOT GET A MENTION. C'MON.

I'm haunted by these facts:
1. There are faithful christian men in positions of power, who do not believe in climate change.
2. There are trees, individual trees, older than their religion, dying off because of climate change.
