I really want to rewrite some carol lyrics to be more pantheist… I love some Christmas music (particularly Oh Holy Night & Oh Come Oh Come Emmanuel) because of growing up with it, but the overt Christian lyrics are really kinda squicky for me these days… I was singing along with Pandora earlier and started replacing ‘oh night when Christ was born’ with ‘oh night, midwinter night’ and it got me thinking if more of it could be changed to a simple solstice carol. Maybe this’ll be my midwinter project this year to rival @sheliesshattered’s pantheist December advent calendar 😉

@loiewaulker, in the mood to do some filking?

what does “men who adhere to strict gender binary” even mean tho

NO ONE adheres to the gender binary! NO ONE FITS THEIR GENDER ROLE PERFECTLY! THAT’S THE POINT! AARRRGGH! 

NOOOOO OOOOONE…. ADHERES TO THE GENDER BINARY LIKE GASTON!

when I try to hear this in my head my mental voice is incapable of pronouncing it fast enough to fit the timing of the line

“noooo oooone… adjksjfksfjslenry like Gaston!”

and when I try to fit it to one of the longer such lines, my mental voice becomes too confused about conflicting scansion to continue

no one’s droll like gaston
no one’s swole like gaston
no one fits his assigned gender role like gaston

Well done @the_late_adopter.

I want someone to do a production of a midsummers night’s dream but instead of it taking place in a forest it takes place in ikea

#*squints* you make a compelling argument actually#shakespeare#I want this#I want one where the audience moves with the actors#all around ikea#& the play is stretched out#super long#around & around ikea#until you have lost sense of#direction & time & even language#then back out to the exit#for the very end#puck makes the speech#‘think but this and all is mended’#& then finally you are free#free to step out into the light again#into the mortal realms#or you go for meatballs idk (x)

This is what Shakespeare was meant for.

PLease tell me there’s a lit. theory paper on Ikea stores as Liminal Spaces.

If Jesus was born from a virgin birth, doesn’t that mean he has only an X chromosome. Wouldn’t that make him female?

wait

TRANS JESUS TRANS JESUS TRANS JESUS

I have taken 3 years of Theology, 1 of Apologetics, and 1 of Anatomy and Physiology and I’m honesty stumped by this one

Those species which are parthenogenic (i.e. self-fertilising, certain lizards, snakes, frogs and fish) the offspring is always genetically/physically female-typical. So yeah, if we were to take the nativity as a scientific story, a parthenogenic human pregnancy (still a scientific impossibility) would result in an AFAB child, and since that child has always been referred to as “he”, voila, trans jesus.

Actually, I think that depends on species? Like, New Mexico whiptail lizards are an entirely female all-parthenogensis all-the-time species, but Komodo dragon parthenogensis always results in males because their chromosome determination is different.

So clearly, to get to the bottom of this mystery, the first question we need to ask is what kind of reptile was Mary.
