Why Is Religious Christmas Imagery All So Joyful And Pleasant? Where Is The Inherent Horror Of The Birth

why is religious Christmas imagery all so joyful and pleasant? where is the inherent horror of the birth of Christ? A mother is handed her newborn child, wailing and innocent. Her hands come away sticky. Red. Simply by giving her son life she has already killed him. He is doomed from the beginning. Her love will not save him from suffering. Because the thing cradled in her arms is not a baby, it is a sacrifice: born amongst the other bleating animals whose blood will one day be spilled in the name of what demands it. the night is silent with anticipation. Mary, did you know? That your womb was also a grave?

Interior Chinatown, it's about gentrification, it's about generational trauma, it's about community building, it's about racist scapegoating, it's about police corruption, it's about the pressures of immigrant parenthood, it's about the different expectations for different children and the way it can break them, it's about the meat grinder of capitalism replacing and reusing the lower class like nameless murder victims in a police procedural, it's about the system and its inescapablity, it's about the falacy of the American Dream, it's about urban decay and being abandoned by economic forces, it's about cultural appropriation and tokenism, it's about grief, it's about Jimmy O. Yang kicking ass and looking sexy

I think one thing we need to address in the US if we want to de-stigmatize multi-generational households that include ADULTS from multiple generations, is that parents need to learn how to have adult relationships with their offspring.

Should my daughter deign to live with me when she's an adult she will not be my some vassal that has to obey my household rules. She graduates into being a peer in setting and managing the boundaries, cleanliness and appearance of our home.

Too many parents want to have relationships with grown ass adults in which the parents maintain control and authority, and in which they leverage money and history to get their way from an adult who, very reasonably, wants to be able to make choices and have influence. And then those parents wonder why their kids keep their distance!

But then people act like I've lost it because I let my 5 year old pick the color of paint in her room- a room I seldom spend time in except to take care of her, and a room in which I want her to be comfortable and happy.

I'm not gonna let her choose a paint color for the kitchen right now, because she's capricious and bad at negotiating so we can pick a color we all like. But when she's an adult, if she's still living here? Why shouldn't she get to influence her environment?

People like to have agency. We limit the agency of children because they make choices without the full ability to understand the results (sorry baby, you are gonna get vaccinated for pollio even if you don't like it. You don't understand pollio).

But limiting an adults choices in their own home, just because you don't think that home should be a real home for them because it's just for you, is kind of an asshole move, to me.

No need to argue with me if you disagree. You can have your own opinion.

But I couldn't treat my kid that way, and I have seen enough to know that not every parent treats their adult children like permanently incompetent interlopers.

I didn't just buy this house for ME. I bought it for MY FAMILY. My baby is my family.

The actor for Jaskier, Joey Batey, who’s an amazing lyricist and music artist and member of the band The Amazing Devil, is writing a novel. HE’S WRITING A NOVEL I NEED YALL TO BE MORE EXCITED.

Okay so why is no one talking about the fact that Joey Batey has mentioned in several interviews that he is writing a novel ? I mean … THE Joey batey who wrote The good man’s grace and the old witches sleep ? THE Joey batey who wrote Inkpot gods and all those other amazing lyrical masterpieces is writing a novel ? And I haven’t seen a single comment about this.

I am literally so excited for this.
