  • Yeah, at the of the day whatever they claim comes from dogma is king so being gay/women having bodily autonomy will always be considered some form of sin, regardless of how much they try to be “welcoming” to the people whose actions they claim are inherently sinful.

    As a queer person I’m definitely biased, but I’ve always seen acts like those as empty gestures, a mockery of what actual empathy and acceptance are supposed to be. I just don’t see how those can truly flourish within organized religion as I’ve known it, my way or the highway is how it all works by design so it’s a lost cause as far as I’m concerned.



  • I’ve been done with them for most of my life by now but I really didn’t think they could sound much more bigoted, at least not this loudly. Joke’s on me, I guess! This tacitly endorses several major human rights issues going on right now.

    They’ve been saying the quiet part out loud for a while when it comes to gay people while also trying here and there to pay lip service to them since it’s not as socially acceptable to hate on that particular minority anymore. This though, is as official and hateful a middle finger as it gets with no punches pulled, particularly at gender diverse folks. At this point I can only hope it leads to more followers realizing the institution is rotten to the core and distancing themselves from them, much like yourself.















  • A lot of us don’t live in the US to begin with, so I assume a significant portion of us just use whatever the local standard is. That’s where I’ve been at so far, the Brazilian layout is a QWERTY variant so not that different. It does make some things more awkward, but you get used to what you have to work with.

    Brackets and curly braces are less convenient off the top of my head, backticks too. Vim is a tad less ergonomic without some extra fiddling, for instance. In fact, I’ve been considering getting a US keyboard for coding to make that kinda thing less of an issue, US international makes accents and whatnot accessible enough that I think I could make it work.
