she found this out the first time when she auto-started her truck to warm it up before work one below-freezing morning and came out ~5 minutes later to find (the then unnamed) diesel with her head stuffed in the tail pipe hanging limply by her idiot neck and thought that she was dead, ran over and pulled her out, and the chicken went "oh hi! anyways mind if i get back in there?" and did it a-fucking-gain??

best guess is bc she feeds her chickens with a pvc gravity pipe like this

Stop abusing your boyfriends and yes what you are doing is abuse.

Stop:

Yelling at him in front of his friends 

Hitting or slapping him when he does or says something you don’t like

Telling him he doesn’t have a choice when it comes to decisions that involve both of you 

Telling him he can’t hang out with friends because you don’t like him

Telling him to not talk to other girls even if they are his friend

Forcing him to spend every moment with you 

Belittling him and pointing out all his flaws

Calling him stupid or making fun of him for making a mistake

Threatening to break up with him if he doesn’t do what you want

Being emotionally manipulative and crying until he does what you want

Accusing him of cheating every time he’s not with you

Blow up is phone if he doesn’t text you every five minutes 

Telling him you are the must thing that has ever happened to him and no one else will love

Physically attacking him when ever you are mad

Forcing him to have sex despite that fact that he said he didn’t want to

Invading his privacy by going through his phone

Getting mad at him for changing his password and demanding he tell you what it is

If a guy did any of these things to a girl it would be considered abuse but since its the other way around its considered normal. Throughout High school I saw many girl treating their boyfriends like shit. Sometime even physically abusing them in the hallways and no one trying to stop it because its a girl attacking a boy. 

Boys: If your girlfriend does anything on this list leave her. It is abuse and you deserve better.

You don’t deserve to be screamed at, ignored, or assaulted.

Being passive aggressive with him when he wants to spend time with friends or doing other things 

controlling when he’s able to go out with friends

Breaking up his friendships with other girls just because you’re insecure

Making him feel like his opinions in decisions that affect the both of you are irrelevant and don’t matter

SENDING HIS NUMBER TO STRANGERS TO TEST IF HE’S LOYAL OR NOT

testing him in anyway in general without his knowledge or permission (example: catfishing! it’s manipulative and weird don’t fucking do that)

taking money/credit cards without permission to spend on things without his knowledge ( had an ex friend do this constantly to her boyfriend and she’d always condone it because “he’ll get over it” )

guilting him for hanging out with friends/family over you  and making him choose between you and friends/family

telling him “you don’t love me if you *insert harmless activity he wants to do here* “

being rude or mean to him in front of others to assert dominance or power over him

downloading apps to spy on his phone activity (yes, this is a thing “”regular”” people do) or snooping on his social media to see who he’s talking to

hitting him, slapping him, punching him, shoving him. literally how do people not understand slapping your male partner is bad. people tend to find this funny in media and society and its weird. KEEP YOUR HANDS OFF YOUR PARTNER WITHOUT PERMISSION. 

and let me add this. ABUSIVE TEEN GIRLFRIENDS TURN INTO ABUSIVE GROWN ASS WOMEN GIRLFRIENDS WHO TURN INTO ABUSIVE WIVES.

if you have an abusive teen or young adult gf right now fellas, leave. don’t let her use you to get her shit right. you’ll be so fucked up by the time she gets it together if she ever does and believe that most likely she won’t.  

you would not believe this song has been here for quite so long and that tomorrow’s its date of birth

you would receive the supply once a month

the brand/type will vary so you could

They have 2 cats. Both very raggedy and now elderly former feral boys, both gingers. There is not a single braincell between the pair of them.

Wash (full government name Washburn) thinks all humans are friend shaped. Sherpa (Full name Stop Climbing That Get Down From There What Are You A Sherpa) is terrified of every human on the planet except my parents.

So, whenever I go up and let myself in, I hear the scrabble of claws on the hardwood floor. Wash then runs full speed into my shins demanding attention, and Sherpa ramps off the whatever he was perched on, a wall, another wall, and scrambles up the stairs to hide under the bed upstairs. Note that he has seen me regularly for 9 years now.

My mom texted me the other day to ask 'Did u see both of them'

Me; 'Wash is clinging to my pants and refusing to let me leave and Sherpa was on top of the fridge again somehow. He's upstairs hiding now.'

the other day to ask ‘Did

u see both of them’

They were called the Southern Baptists because, virtually alone among Evangelicals, they weren’t abolitionists (they were too concerned, humanistically, with the secular interests of their region). The abolition movement in the Protestant world was almost exactly coterminous with the Second Great Awakening. Abolition also resulted from a Catholic revival, in their part of Western Christendom.

Also slavery was abolished twice in Western Christianity. The other time was in the 0640s AD, in a series of church councils: it was automatic excommunication for a Catholic to own or traffic slaves from then until now, except for a suspension from 1436 to 1551. Slavery came back along with a bunch of other pagan Greco-Roman bullshit in the leadup to the Renaissance—because humanism prioritizes the assumptions and preferences of the violent selfish ape it’s named after. (Spanish colonies became dependent on slave labor during that suspension of the excommunication, so they made it illegal to publish anything written by the Pope without the governor’s permission. See, sometimes he mentioned Catholics were forbidden to be involved in slavery.)

As for witch hunts…no, Christians did not begin witch hunts. They’re as old as humanity. The only pagan Roman emperor who didn’t execute any accused witches was Alexander Severus. China and Japan’s last executions for witchcraft were in the 1880s, the last ones in Korea were in the 1890s. In 1990, a South African Catholic, Benedict Daswa, was murdered by his animist neighbors for refusing to pitch in to pay the local witchfinder. Last time that I know of that a traditional Navajo murdered someone they thought was trying to witch them and got caught, was 1993.

In 0785 AD, at the Council of Paderborn, the Catholic Church declared it heresy to believe in witchcraft and imposed capital punishment for anyone who harmed an accused witch. The council was mostly just a series of condemnations of pagan practices that newly converted Saxons were continuing—one of which practices being witch hunts—because the council was convened during Charlemagne’s conquest of Saxony. That’s why the Early Modern witch hunts (belief in witches being another piece of pagan bullshit brought back by humanism) were almost all in Protestant territory. In Catholic ones, the Inquisition executed witch hunters.

What matters is what the religion as a whole has done about it.

Yes Christianity has had some rotten apples and been involved in some deeply disgusting business.

But is that stuff condoned today? Are we making excuses for why it was actually 'good'?

Not in the least. In fact many things have been completely outlawed over the centuries. And that's great to know.

More recent horrors like sexual abuse by priests and the infamous 'Magdalene Laundries' are out in the light, and whilst work no doubt is still to be done, there's no hiding or excusing possible any more.
