Karma is a Bitch
That's why I'm not saying half the things I'd like to during this crisis.
Fingers Crossed!
2029, folks! Mark your calendars!
THIS.
Michael Sheldon has posted a batch of memes sure to provoke controversy, plastering I AM OMAR MATEEN on the grinning faces of a host of his country's most unapologetic homophobes. And I think it's awesome.
Cue the Sad Trombone
One day you're riding high as the country's top "border security" activist and running for Senate, the next day you're picked up by the cops on child molestation charges.
If you can't trust anti-immigrant paramilitary leaders, who can you trust?
Illinois Catholic Priest Calls 911: "Help! I Can't Get Out Of These Handcuffs!"
From Joe.My.God.:
The 911 operator in Springfield, Illinois fielded an unusual emergency call from the local Catholic church in late November. The story was published yesterday by the Illinois Times.
The pastor of St. Aloysius church on Springfield's north end has been granted a leave of absence after he called 911 from the rectory and told a dispatcher that he needed help getting out of handcuffs. "I'm going to need help getting out before this becomes a medical emergency," Father Tom Donovan told a dispatcher who sounds a bit incredulous during the Nov. 28 call. "You're stuck in a pair of handcuffs?" the dispatcher asks. "(I was) playing with them and I need help getting out," Donovan responds. Donovan told the dispatcher that he was alone in the rectory. It's not clear exactly how he ended up in handcuffs or why he feared a medical emergency. His voice sounds garbled or muffled on the tape, and sources say that police discovered some sort of gag on the priest when they arrived. The diocese has been tight-lipped about the matter, saying only that Bishop Thomas Paprocki granted Donovan's request for a leave of absence at some point before Christmas.
Bolding is mine. It took me a few extra minutes to write this post because I was laughing so hard at the 911 call. I am a horrible person.
I wonder if police also checked his rectum for any, um…foreign objects he might've "tripped and fallen" on?
