In recent years, many young people have approached the faith through social media, successful programs and popular online Christian witnesses. The danger is that a faith discovered online is limited to individual experiences, which may be intellectually and emotionally reassuring, but never “embodied.” Such experiences remain “disembodied,” detached from the “ecclesial body.”

why would he come for online trads like this

This is a real vote btw

Oh right, forgot about that.

Also, what did the animators mean by giving the Hibberts a Robert E Lee portrait?

Another topic that King of the Hill and South Park had a clear thing to say but Simpsons somehow didn't.

The movie seems to think Jack Nicholson dating a woman half his age is meant to be heartwarming and not creepy. Because besides the fact he's clearly old in this movie, I just flash back to Joker's girlfriend in Batman 1989 or everything that happened in The Shining.

Thank God that got removed, but what was Chase thinking in the first place by considering it?

Today is the birthday of Thaddeus "Ted" Shearer (Nov. 1, 1919–Dec. 26, 1992), cartoonist, advertising art director, veteran of WWII, & creator of the comic strip Quincy. He also illustrated the book series about young detective Billy Jo Jive, which became an animated segment on Sesame Street.

Report: Nearly 30% of Japan’s Restaurant Managers Work 60-Hour Weeks - Unseen Japan A new report finds that one-third of all restaurant managers are so busy that they're at risk of working themselves to death.

A combination of crowds and a chronic labor shortage is spelling trouble for Japan's restaurants. A new government report highlights just how close many restaurant managers are to crossing the so-called “death by overwork” line.

One of the thing that I hope “welcome to derry” addresses is how pennywise suck dick: regular or goofy style

Many people don’t know that “Nosferatu” was actually an unauthorized adaptation of the classic tale “a vampire in Brooklyn”

What's the best Sam Simon thing outside of The Simpsons?

Watching As Good As It Gets this morning, because I'm still wondering how much of The Simpsons' DNA can be traced to Brooks as opposed to Groening.

Good morning, rainbow. Thanks for reminding us that moments of beauty exist between the storms.

And it's been something about myself I really should have fixed a while ago, yet I haven't figured out how.

Maybe I should go to a convention again. It's been a while, and I let Covid turn me into a hypochondriac about stuff like that.

Because it's easy to be cynical here. MTV's been airing trash for decades at this point, and now it's in the hands of Skydance and all that entails. Odds are it'll just get hollowed out and become a channel that airs nonstop sitcom or cop drama reruns.

What's worse than airing 24-hour marathons of some skateboarder on valium reacting to videos of people getting hit by cars?

Now that the shock's worn off, wondering what this means for MTV. Because Ridiculousness was extremely cheap to make, and if that's getting culled, how's the next chapter for the channel gonna get worse?

Hammer horror fans—here’s Christopher Lee and Peter Cushing in their last photo together.

If you want or need SNAP benefits, literally the only barrier should be...signing up.

"But what about fraud?" My sibling in red, white, and blue, THE PENTAGON HASN'T PASSED AN AUDIT IN YEARS AND MONEY IS FAKE. I don't care if too many people have food assistance.
