Visualizing the relative evasiveness of Kavanaugh and Ford

mostlysignssomeportents:

Kavanaugh didn’t just DARVO his way through yesterday’s hearing:
his bluster, tears, rage, and blame-shifting also allowed him to dodge a
remarkable number of questions raised by the senators.

Ford, by contrast, answered virtually every question put to her.

Vox went through the transcript and painstakingly logged whether each
question raised was addressed. They confirmed the impression that
Kavanaugh was dodging the questions and Ford wasn’t, and produced an excellent interactive graphic that allows us to visualize the both witnesses’ forthrightness and drill down on each question and statement.

Damtoys has finally released some photographs related to his “Altaïr the Mentor 1/6th stairs Collectible Figure”, a product in our opinion exceptional, especially for the level of detail.

The figure, 31 cm high, will be characterized by multiple articulation points, numerous interchangeable parts including hands and weapons, and a base to expose it.

Price and release date have not yet been announced.

THANK YOU FOR BRINGING THIS INTO MY LIFE OMFG. I’M NOT EVEN GOING TO SCHOOL AND I JUST CHECKED, IT’S GONNA BE A FULL MOON ON THAT DAY TOO THIS HOLIDAY IS BLESSED MY DUDE.

We are vegetarian, but we will definitely be celebrating Wolfenoot this year! Maybe I can make a cake that looks like a steak or something. This may be my new favourite holiday, I am so serious

text in the image: a tweet by @JulianKJarboe on twitter: “God blessed me by making me transsexual for the same reason he made wheat but not bread and fruit but not wine: because he wants humanity to share in the act of creation. I am only doing the Good Works here on Earth as intended!”

What a beautiful gift it is to be trans and/or nonbinary! God invites all of us to be co-creators. None of us come forth from the womb fully formed – we are all called to grow, to transform, to become. Those of us who are trans/nonbinary get to do that in a unique way.

this is so beautiful. And as a transgender man who is still part of the church, if not as actively as my family, I have struggled to find a way to express these exact thoughts in words.

I hope that someday I can have the courage to tell it to my family as well, that the reason I am walking this path is because I believe it is part of what God wants and intends for me in my growth as a human, and not because I think he made a mistake.
