This is what fascinates me most in existence: the peculiar necessity of imagining what is, in fact, real.


I really liked the Felix Derek duocast, the rest of the gang wouldn't have really fit into spending an hour on the topic.

The one with Dad Menaker is real good and the cold open was legendary.
That said, I hope we can get off the Peterson kick soon - it's good content, but everything he says is such brain poison.

Which is why Tim Faust and the Delete Your Account crew are also on said group asking for pro-life leftists to buzz off, which explains why there's no Chapo so far calling the recent moves as brain damaged or hysterical or extremelly online.

Yeah, one can be ok with her as a person, but it gets complicated when she goes to, fo example, Vice and gets profiled as this figure that shows how one can compromise on these matters as part of the left. (And gets kind of hosed up after the Tennessee ruling)

I dunno, having a problem with a person who is pro-choice but would not personally have an abortion is akin to to having a problem with a person who is for gay rights but wouldn't personally gently caress a person of the same sex in this situation.

she in fact is explicitly pro-choice when it comes to law, her anti abortion views are entirely on a personal level.

I think she sometimes shares some 'choose life' kinda memes/articles, nothing insane but just generic 'boy we're happy we were born hint hint wink wink' stuff or 'I'm glad I kept my disabled baby' stuff, but I can't remember her taking any actual policy stance beyond 'safe, legal, accessible'.

I think what makes people leery is that there are absolutely Catholics who present themselves as leftists, but will also narc for pro-life groups.

It did happen in Brazil and on a few other South American countries, argued more or less in the same "oh, normal people won't be with you if you support abortion" way some of the defense is being done.
