Legit thought this was to me personally for a second and I was like “What did I do?!”
I’m not sure what you mean. The writing was contrived but there was full closure on who Red was. The people running the show even said as much. Just an enormous amount of people watching the show refused to believe who Red actually was.
$120. Apparently the CRA wants some money back they shouldn’t have given me and I don’t have it, but I’d be more than glad to make an exchange…

The new pope holds opinion that are counter to what the old pope did. The old pope was progressive because he pushed the church forward. The new pope is regressive because he’s dragging it backward.
I’m not having this conversation anywhere else in this thread. Y’all can bend over backwards trying to justify that he is progressive but he aint. Full stop, simple, flat, you don’t get to argue it. By simple definition of progressive and regressive, this pope is not PROgressive. He is REgressive. He is bringing the church BACKWARDS. His opinions are counter to what Francis pushed for in a lot of cases and, oh yeah, HE FUCKING PROTECTED PEDOPHILES.
And trying to split hairs that “Oh he was a cardinal then!” is objectively insane when it is pedophilia. I do not give a fuck whether or not you get given a silly hat or not, you’re still someone who protected pedophiles. The last pope didn’t have that direct accusation.
I’m all the way the fuck out from this entire posts thread.
Stamets@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Pope Leo ‘Looked the Other Way’ When Victims Raised Sex Abuse Claims Against Priests, Survivor WarnsEnglish55·4 days agoBro, we literally just had this conversation.
Progressive implies in comparison to what came before. This dude is not progressive in what comes from before. It is regressive behavior. The church took 3 steps forward and 2 back. This is called regression.
You’re very “black and white” with your reasoning.
No, I’m being forward and backward with my reasoning.
I’m not continuing this conversation. We’re going in circles. I am not going to call a dude who protected pedophiles ‘progressive’, full stop. Nor will I really respect anyone who does.
That is the promise, daddy.
Stamets@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Pope Leo ‘Looked the Other Way’ When Victims Raised Sex Abuse Claims Against Priests, Survivor WarnsEnglish62·4 days agoYour comment is confusing the hell out of me.
My whole point is that this dude isn’t progressive but, if anything, regressive. You then talk about how progress is needed for the church but then how the progress from Francis was too much?
Also doesn’t address, remotely, the point that calling this Pope progressive is either a lie or a delusion, depending on how much you believe it.
Stamets@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Pope Leo ‘Looked the Other Way’ When Victims Raised Sex Abuse Claims Against Priests, Survivor WarnsEnglish32·4 days agoAmongst from personal friends. Queer friends. That blows my mind.
Then drink, my son.
Drink fast
I’m coming for you
Stamets@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Pope Leo ‘Looked the Other Way’ When Victims Raised Sex Abuse Claims Against Priests, Survivor WarnsEnglish351·4 days agoTrue. However the default implication is progressive from the thing that came just before it, not something that came 300 years before it. This dude is obviously more progressive than like Pope Pius the Third or something but it’s outright regressive in comparison to Francis. Also, he’s accused of protecting pedophiles on a number of occasions. I feel like that is kind of like a neutron bomb when it comes to any claim that they’re progressive or a good person.
Stamets@lemmy.worldto World News@lemmy.world•Pope Leo ‘Looked the Other Way’ When Victims Raised Sex Abuse Claims Against Priests, Survivor WarnsEnglish1012·4 days agoI’ve seen a lot of people call this guy ‘progressive’ so far and I do not even remotely see it. He’s quoted as being anti-gay, anti-trans, thinks women being in church positions will cause more problems than they solve, put a pedophile up in a church and then is accused of refusing to investigate two other pedophiles. And he’s progressive how, exactly? Because he told off Trump and JD Vance? The absolute bare minimum to not be a horrible person?
It puts the water down it’s throat skin…
Sorry, I just couldn’t pass up the opportunity to use that gif.
So, do I have access to other gifs? Oh 100%. I favor Star Trek gifs more than anything else.
However.
I made all the Spader gifs in this thread. I made about 100 GIFs of the first 3 episodes of The Blacklist. Why? Because I like the show but everytime I go to find a gif they’re all really low resolution, super low framerate, awkward text or there are just barely any. So I said fuck it and took it upon myself to make some. Slapped them All up on Tenor and toss more in every now and again. Also working on GIFs from some other shows too as well as a big Star Trek project. Granted the first few GIFs I uploaded are WAY WORSE than the latest ones (and still issues even then) but meh. I’m making them for myself and they’ll get better anyway.
I apologize for precisely nothing.
Do you only have James Spader gifs?
Girl I have a $120 bill that is going to bankrupt me at the moment, you ain’t getting shit from me.
