  • Catholics and Protestants are both Christians, Catholicism is pretty unified in doctrine, and Protestants are a large group of very diverse denominations of Christianity. When I was forced to go to church, my pastor would often joke about Baptists forming new denominations over differing opinions on drape colors. Outside of those two groups, there are tons of other flavors of Christianity. Off the top of my head you’ve got Mormons, Greek Orthodox, Eastern Orthodox, jehovas witnesses, and Oriental Orthodox









  • In legal proceedings, being fit to stand trial is the opposite of insanity. Pleading not guilty for insanity suggests a chronic mental health issue that leaves the person incapable of understanding or making sound judgements.

    We have a similar system in place in the medical field. If a person is unable to demonstrate basic self awareness in the moment, they cannot consent to medical care. For us, this means implied consent takes effect and we are allowed to act in what would be considered a reasonable manner to save the patients life. There are systems in place for people who are chronically not oriented; be it medical power of attorney, advanced directives, DNRs, etc

    From what I understand, this is (in spirit at least) what’s happening in a legal setting as well. If a person isn’t capable of understanding the legal proceedings, then they need to be treated for their illness before the case can continue. I could be misremembering but a not guilty verdict by reason of insanity isn’t a get out of jail free card, it’s a “go to a state run mental institution until you’re able to stand trial” card. You’re still being locked up, often times into an environment that is significantly worse than the prison you would’ve gone to instead. Possibly for longer than the sentence they would’ve (and still may) served in prison. It’s an awful system with massive flaws that punishes some of the most disadvantaged people in society for being neglected by the state to a point where they’re a danger to themselves and those around them.



  • Wikipedia says the term analingus was coined in the late 19th century and my cursory glance at google showed that there were explicit references to eating ass in early modern texts (~1500s). So tongue punching the fart box is at least as old as the Renaissance. Take the precautions you would normally take for butt stuff (disease free, recently bathed, haven’t pooped or eaten in 3+ hours, an enema if you’re fancy) and you should be just fine. Eating ass is fun and I will die on this hill
