I would literally die
I need some intrepid Buffalonian banging drums outside of Jeremy Swayman's lodgings every night for the rest of this series, thanks.
A big part is that liberal Catholics understand that you can find Communion in the world writ large, while conservative Catholics feel like it should only exist within the strict hierarchies of the human institution built on the rock the builders discarded, which now disagrees with them.
Liberal Catholics agree that the Pope isn't the be-all, end-all for morality. What they didn't do is claim they could speak for Catholicism more than the Pope - they just either lapsed, or left. Been told I'm a "cafeteria Catholic" my whole life, and now the shoe is on the other foot.

Physician, heal thyself.
You cannot sustain the emotional energy to constantly protest. That's why, in DSA, we want to funnel people into organizing - you need to build, brick by brick, the networked/robust support system to fight against oppression and authoritarianism.
Immediacy is the reason. If you protest and protest and protest, and nothing changes (and in fact, retribution is enacted on you), you burn out. Simple as. That's the grinding down of authoritarianism. We put 1m in the streets protesting Iraq - but years later, Abu Ghraib? Everyone was tired.
Come join us in Hamburg as we celebrate the end of petitioning! Tomorrow!
Death is always lurking. We see it in violence, in the wounds of the world, in the cry of pain that rises from every corner because of the abuses that crush the weakest among us, because of the idolatry of profit that plunders the earth's resources, because of the violence of war that kills and destroys.

The Dems need to catch their asses up to this
He misses Deepthroat.
My home parish is actually the St. Christopher's right outside of Buffalo NY. :) It's also in a modern style, but that's because our original church burned down in the 80s.

Last month, I was elected by our democratic socialist movement to fight for an affordable NY and oppose Trump’s authoritarianism. And if we want to succeed, we’ll need more working class champions in office.
That’s why today, I’m endorsing the full @socialists.nyc @buffalodsa.bsky.social slate!

We've done it, folks!
Getting a "no confirmation" from a South Korean baddie ain't nothing though.
My comms person missing the "w" in "know" we're cooked.
Moe from the Simpsons tells a noise hanging on the wall "Not today, old friend," which is how much emotion and sentiment I put into Buffalo sports teams.
After the thought of losing to the TBL and ending a six game winning streak in an attempt to gain first place in the Atlantic turned into the game of the decade:
Come join us to finally beat the dastardly Penguins this year.
Varada is not a deep cut because of the teams he played on which were very successful, like me naming Carwell Gardner on the Bills. Anyways join us Thursday!!!!!!
Like I said, I don't know if he's truly for the working class . But I know Jasmine isn't, even if she co-sponsored M4A. It's easy to co-sponsor something you think will never come up for a vote, and her actual voting record is not progressive at all, let alone working class leftist.
The working class agenda is the black agenda. We have to stop pretending we can only be represented by people who look like us. That's how they've always sought to divide us.
(From this socialist, though, don't know if Talerico is really a working class agenda pol. But Jasmine certainly wasn't.)
Workers United endorsement
Proud to have the endorsement of Workers United RRJB, which represents workers across sectors all over Western and Upstate NY, including the very first Starbucks Workers United located in the heart of our district.
As someone who grew up in the Nolan/Lindy era, absolutely. Can't believe he was ever fired.
Whatever happens tonight, young Sabres fans will not appreciate Lindy enough. He teaches players how to win
who the fuck says "unc" means "uncool"?
