Boy, is it ever fun to do an image search for mysticism. So many beautiful images from every corner of the world. But it’s this image of Church of England women priests eating lunch that made me smile.
My friends idea of a good time is dressing up in colonial attire and pretending to beat each other up while similarly dressed colonial men jump around in the background waving fistfuls of cash
I feel like my life has reached a peak it’s all downhill from here
With all this Bert+Ernie debating, now seems like a very good time for me to point out the REAL iconic gay couple of the Muppetverse we’ve all been ignoring for YEARS
I’ve seen photos of more than one wedding cake with Statler and Waldorf toppers.
Two year old idea I finally got done. :’) I’d planned it for May, because mermay, but work got in the way, and then I hoped to do it in June but nope. Ah well, at least it’s done.

In the town I live in, there’s only one place to get the state-required voter ID. It’s way out beyond the end of the bus line, and its hours are inconvenient and unpredictable. Also, the IDs cost like $30; the people who passed the voter ID law obviously didn’t think that was a budget-breaker for anyone who MATTERED.
If you have difficulty getting a voter ID, here are some thoughts:
– Contact a church. (I wish I could say contact ANY church, but to be honest, if you look unconventional, and you don’t know which churches in your town are the progressive ones, look for a Unitarian church. I suspect most synagogues would be more helpful than most evangelical churches, but I don’t know that from personal experience.)
When I was a church secretary, if someone had called and said, “I want to register to vote, but I don’t have a car and I don’t have $30 for an ID,” I’m pretty sure our entire governing board would have been lining up to help you out.
In this part of the country, nuns are a good bet, too.
– Contact the local Democratic Party office.
– Contact a YMCA or a YWCA. Did you know that fighting racism is actually part of the Y’s charter? Pretty sure somebody in that office will be able to help you get the ID you need to register.
– Go to your town’s website and look for a pro-diversity organization – a Multicultural Awareness Center, something like that. Give them a call.
– Call your library reference desk and ask if they know of anyone who could help.
I don’t actually think this would help, but it would be interesting: Call the local office of your senators and your representative, and ask if they can help you get a voter ID. At least it might be entertaining to hear them sputter.
Public librarian seconding the “ask your library” recommendation here. My library has multiple nonprofits tabling in the lobby to register voters in September and October, we have packets of legal information at the circ desk, we have every local government contact number and email there is, and we want to help you vote.
