With an Orthodox priest blessing a large newly erected statue of Stalin in the Pskov region of 🇷🇺, history of the country is really taking a tragic turn. Tens of millions of Russian were killed by this brutal dictator, including many thousands of priests. pic.twitter.com/qWEZj4zMyQ

After we saw holy icons featuring Stalin, we shouldn’t be surprised but still.
This is all vomit-inducing.

// Борхес евреем не был, но всю жизнь себя им представлял. Мудрый слепой старец ратовал за независимость Израиля, посвящал ему стихи и часто ставил в центр своей интеллектуальной Вселенной.
Хорхе Луис Борхес, пожалуй, самый популярный из писателей – интеллектуалов ХХ века.

One of our favorite icons:

Oh, that’s a fun one! We had one in a previous church with the story of Jesus sending the demons into the herd of swine– it’s so great, with the wee demons riding the pigs away like horses.

I also saw one in Bulgaria that looks like a saintly…. water park… sort of a cave with pools and different levels and saints chilling in them….

The mayor of Cincinnati reminds me of the dean of your school. Maybe, instead of a “rebrand,” you could focus on actual original in the city like crime and poverty.

Oh yes, he also rebranded! Changed our logo, letterheads, the image of the mascot. The poor mascot now looks massively pissed off, and I don’t blame it.
These people are stupid in everything. They attend these business seminars without remotely comprehending what’s being said there.
