Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

...so I can kill the thread.

Well, turn it over, not kill it, which I seem to have done.

Unusually and exceedingly peculiar and altogether quite impossible to describe

I'm glad I'm a spoiler ho.

So you can brace yourself, or should something be white-fonted?

I typed that w/o explanation and then ran, didn't I? It's so cold in our office that I went down to the car to see if I had my gym bag with me so I could put on socks, as I'm wearing sandals. (No gym bag = no socks. But I did have a fleece blanket in my trunk, so it's wrapped around my toesies.)

Anyway. I think that technically it should be white-fonted b/c I don't think she's actually appeared in an issue yet (unless she's in today's issue of 52), but I'm a spoiler ho, so I knew about it a while ago, so it's no big to me.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

Steph, what's the temp in Cincy? I am so grateful it hasn't crept over 82 here.

It's allegedly 83 right now. My office, however, is a brisk absolute zero.

Art Crawl!!!

I searched and found an article about the Batwoman (linked from the DC site) at Out.com which says that the now white fonted thing will happen in Week 11.

I really need to go and pick up Weeks 2 and 3, don't I? (Is this week 4?)

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Bah. Semi-major crisis at client - I might have to stay late.

Unrelatedly, a kid on a bicycle just got hit by a car about 20 feet from our building....

Somewhere around 86 in Boston as of 3pm. But you can tell from the wind that it's going to take a big drop at some point, and probably in a hurry.

cue thunder

What is even happening?

the purpose driven live

[link]

very scary

The rhetoric in that article is pretty thick, so I feel the need to break some of it down. It's not a Purpose Driven Life game. It is a Left Behind game. It seems someone in Warren's church sits on the board of the company. [corrected].

The Anti-Dominionists are fast approaching Tinfoil hat time.

The eschatology of Left Behind is scary, and probably way wrong, but is actually IN DIRECT OPPOSITION to the eschatology of dominionists (also I think scary and wrong).

People who buy into the same end-of-days view as LaHaye, think Jesus is coming back any minute, and we have to be ready.

Dominionists (also called Christian Reconstructionists) think Jesus is in no damn hurry, because we're such a mess, and that they have to clean the place up, in order to make it a place that Jesus would want to come back to.

Warren (who is driving me buggy for his ubiquity, more than anything else) is not a dominionist, a probably not a pre-millenialist (ie a Left Behinder). WRT dominionism, I'd put forth his involvement with the "One" campaign (Think the "Live 8" concert of last summer), [link] which as far as I know, seems rather anti-dominionist in agenda, and as far as I know is not religious, although they partner with both religious (and not just Christian) and secular charitable and humanitarian organizations [link] and a lot of celebrities (U2, Brad Pitt, Tom Hanks, Rita and Steve Marley, Fergie (the pee-her-pants-one), Will Smith, Antonio Banderas, Steve Buscemi, George Clooney, Ellen Degeneres, Bob Geldof, Danny Glover, Isaac Hayes, Dennis Hopper, Jewel, Orlando Bloom, P. Diddy, Jamie Foxx, Liam Neeson, Susan Sarandon) were touting it, too.

Christian != Dominionist. Pre-millenial != Dominionist.
