So ... because of a coincidence, Johnson and Trump's' mouthpiece and a bunch of other self-important idiot-children decide that they're going to get ALL BENT OUT OF SHAPE, and of course, they're going to blame Biden for it. I'd break out the old biblical saw about "Take the log out of your own eye first" if it weren't so overused.
These are the same people who have so twisted their supposed Christian faith that it would be unrecognizable to anyone even 10-20 years ago. These are the insurrectionists who stormed the Capitol on January 6, 2021 and praised their pugnacious deity for being able to do so, then screamed bloody murder when they were prosecuted, convicted, and imprisoned for that action. Meanwhile, Joe Biden can walk and chew gum at the same time, celebrating both Easter and the Transgender Day of Visibility without skipping a beat.
Biden has been busting his tailbone since he took office to do something to bring this country together. The MAGAs have been doing very little other than the polar opposite, and it is way past time that those on the sidelines took notice.
They have been pushing lies about history for a long time. Why wouldn't they jump on this coincidence to spread more lies? Especially the "Biden wants to destroy Christianity" lie?
Don’t these people realize that Easter eggs and Easter bunnies have nothing whatsoever to do with the death and resurrection of Jesus?They’re pagan items, and for what it’s worth, paganism is so much better than this bs Christianity.
Ask them how Easter is calculated; the vast majority have no idea. It's the first Sunday after the first full moon after the spring equinox (because the original calculation method, which pegged it to Passover, left them dependent on Jews, and they can't have that), which doesn't sound pagan at alllll.
And - correct me if I'm wrong - but more than once, they've just decided they didn't like when that placed Easter, and straight up said "Never mind, Easter's actually going to be (here) this year. 'Cause I sez so."
Thank you for posting this. Today, March 31st, my wife and I are celebrating our 40th wedding anniversary. We do this every March 31st. No matter which day of the week it falls on. Whether it's a holiday or not. But today, I guess we will have to move it to a different date so as not to offend Christians. I wouldn't want Trump, Moses, or former drug addict Franklin Graham pissed at us for celebrating our wedding anniversary on their holey (spelling intended) day. Oh, and by the way, we have a trans child. So I guess we're going to offend Christians no matter what.
Also, what's up with the "religious Easter eggs"? Do they think Jesus was hatched from an egg ?
So in closing, Jesus is dead. He didn't rise from the grave. Nothing to celebrate today. Screw Christians. Hail Satan !! (who doesn't exist either). 🖕😋
Why am I not surprised? Our two countries can't even agree on the temperature. Here 37 is damn cold. There, 37 is moderately warm. (Late spring, early summer in South Texas)
If we are talking about religious days highjacked by something else can we start by counting how many christians holidays (and I mean all christians' sects and saints from the catholic and orthodox calendars) are Pagans ? Are you sure it's the hill you want to die on ?
Oester and the egg and chocolate industries are conspiracies to distract from the true meaning of Easter. Pagans have been rebelling against God since the apple.
Well, of course we knew were this headed. Can’t let a good chance to freak out over a nothing burger pass by. I guess it was a good time to put up my pentagram. Happy Transgender Day of Visibility.
I do not want to imagine a world where someone like Mike Johnson held the power of life and death. It would be hell on earth. When people become convinced they're operating under divine sanction, they're capable of any horror. America's religious right are some of the first people to claim they're being persecuted, and never pass up an opportunity to celebrate how they're being abused. There is no group who would be more inclined to persecute others if given the opportunity.
How dare those Christians have their holiday of torture and death on the same day as Transgender Day of Visibility? I am outraged! It's just a made up holiday that they just started doing to persecute trans people!
King James version: "A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another."
New Republican version: "A new commandment I give unto you, That you hate and kill anyone who is different from you. I love you only if you hate all those whom I hate."
What this whole business shows off to me, more than anything else, is how religion is at the heart of the brand of discrimination and bigotry that characterizes the systematic opposition of anything having to do with the LGBTQ+ community, in this case, with particular emphasis on the "T." Their understanding of the human condition is so arrested that they can't deal with the concept of alternative sexuality of ANY sort, from same-sex attraction to a conflict between physical sex and internal gender perception.
Put simply, religion in general and Christianity in particular are ANACHRONISMS which don't belong in a 21st-century reality. That they persist is a problem our culture will be dealing with for a long time, I suspect.

Over the centuries that log has evolved into an entire log cathedral.
Divided we stand, united we fall.
Our dinner for spring break was as always stifado made with hare, shot by my husband.

That is correct.
But...but...Israel.
Oh no. You're ruining Mike Johnson’s entire reason for existence.
No. He can still get off monitoring his son's porn habits.
Jesus forgot to mention porn in his teachings. Mike is merely finishing what Jesus (God) couldn't. To paraphrase Ayn Rand, Who is Mike Johnson?
He was hanging out with 12 other guys. Porn is implied.
In dresses, no less.
Sure, Jan.
Ah well… we all have to do our part , I suppose 😂😜
Oh the persecution. Being told they should recognize people for who they are on a day that is important to them. How will they survive?
They would like that, I think they are all into humiliation as their kink, why else tell such easily debunked lies?

Enjoy !! 😊
Joyeuses noces d'émeraude.
Happy emerald anniversary.
Thank you so much 😊
Minor correction. The 40th is Ruby. The 55th is Emerald. In the States, anyway. For all I know, France may use a different system.
I googled it in French. I have Ruby 35 years, Emerald 40 and Orchid for 55.
Why am I not surprised? Our two countries can't even agree on the temperature. Here 37 is damn cold. There, 37 is moderately warm. (Late spring, early summer in South Texas)
Sorry, we will have to disagree again 🤣
37 is hot as hell, either in Paris or Marseille.
In July and August we frequently hit 40C and in the town I grew up in 43 wasn't unheard of.
In this family 31st. March is Littlesister'sbirth Day. The penalties for not remembering that are too horrifying even to contemplate.
LOL. Understood. Happy B'day, Little Sister 😊🎉
Best wishes to you and your lady. Go kick yer heels and enjoy! 🥳🥳🥳
Thank you very much 😊
Congrats on 40th!
Thank you 😊
Happy anniversary!
Thank you very much 😊
Let say Biden did that. So what ?

Easter is a perfect example- it falls on the first Sunday after the first full moon after the Spring Equinox.
As God intended. You gotta work for it.

Good idea.

Une photo ! Une photo ! Uhe photo !

Hmmmm. How do I do that on this site?
Google photos link?
Ok, I’ll figure it out. I do have a photo. The kids love it
You need a site who (host ?) pictures and share the link in your comment.

host is the correct word.
Thanks! That was easy enough
On Easter, I'll have my egg over easy. Take that, wingnuts!
On a biscuit, with sausage and cheese.
Too late here to get a sausage egg and cheese McMuffin.
Y'a pas d'heure pour les bonnes choses.
So true and they stop doing breakfast at 10 a.m.
I thought MickeyD's had gone 24-hour breakfast. It was a hamburger you couldn't get between 5-11am.
They stopped doing that during the pandemic.
Say you are from New Zealand and it's Monday morning, not 1pm Sunday.
11
I like the biscuits better, the muffins are good, but it's hit or miss if they get properly toasted.
Still in the running here. But for me? Bacon, Egg and Cheese McGriddle, please. :9----
I'd buy that for a dollar! 😁
4 quarters don't cost a dollar anymore.

Exactly
It’s a slap in the face if your religion is solely based on hating LGBTQ people.
This tempest in a teapot is pretty telling about the folks who are upset, but not much about Biden or transgender people.
King James version: "A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another."
New Republican version: "A new commandment I give unto you, That you hate and kill anyone who is different from you. I love you only if you hate all those whom I hate."
I love you only if you stay married and live with the man who beats you and your children. And it's your fault.
That's pretty much what they seem to get, out of that book they seldom read. They don't get context.
What this whole business shows off to me, more than anything else, is how religion is at the heart of the brand of discrimination and bigotry that characterizes the systematic opposition of anything having to do with the LGBTQ+ community, in this case, with particular emphasis on the "T." Their understanding of the human condition is so arrested that they can't deal with the concept of alternative sexuality of ANY sort, from same-sex attraction to a conflict between physical sex and internal gender perception.

Hey assholes- 𝘺𝘰𝘶𝘳 holiday ran into 𝘰𝘶𝘳𝘴. Maybe do a better job parking it next time.
"Face it girls, I'm older and I have more insurance"
Loved that scene
If trump’s selling sneakers and bibles, that can only mean he ran out of classified documents to sell.
"They don't own the whole month of December either" Of course not, Santa owns December and Bezos holds the mortgage.
Super duper love seeing that the phrase "Catholics and Christians" still persists among Protestants.
They's got 𝘣𝘰𝘵𝘩 kinds of religion- Christian 𝘢𝘯𝘥 Catholic!
