Yet another subhuman Republican swine.

When I hear the word "mural" I think of the paintings on the sides of building in the Eastern Market section of Detroit. Wonderful paintings two stories high and half a block wide. These window covering are more like cameos than murals and if someone finds them "demonic" they are either psychotic or attention-whores. Or maybe both.

I despise that "see into my heart" bullshit the right spews.

Guys, read your fucking book. "They will know you by your DEEDS"

Dude spells it out right for you.

And we sure as fuck know you by your deeds.

If she had wanted a rainbow-theme, the artist should have gone with the rainbow shining over Noah's Ark. You know: that moment when God turned the frogs gay?

The clarification didn't clarify things too well for me, because I was left going, "Huh. I don't remember Hoffman being in "The Birdcage"." But when I read your clarification of the clarification, I was reminded that he was indeed one of the stars of "Ishtar"

Also SHAME on the Globe for interviewing and publishing that tripe.

Were they just doing it to see if the readership was going to call in and complain??

*starts drafting*

Who knew that a light shining in the Darkness would upset so many people. Evil hides in shadows.

I'm reminded of the storm Pink Floyd unleashed when they released a special logo for the 50th anniversary of Dark Side Of The Moon. A spectrum/rainbow coloured 50.

A lot of "longtime PF fans" went absolutely batshit over the "wokeness" of the logo. Completely forgetting the iconic cover art, of a beam of white light being broken into the spectrum by a prism.

These weirdos think FAR more about gay sex than the horniest gay person ever does.

The thought of PF appealing to neanderthaler right-wing types seems way off-brand.

Ta, Robyn. Demonic messages? I don't see that at all. I see sweet, simple graphics.

Didn't her own god admit the existence of other gods? If not, who was he so jealous of?

The one on the left is the flying spaghetti monster, the middle one is two gay men, and on the right is some lady parts...getting it from below from a flying spaghetti monster.

Okay. Now I see it.

As far as I can recall, Iris mainly conveyed messages from the other gods, so this is really an example of someone blaming the messenger.

In Christianity the iris is also called 'The Virgin's Flower'. So she must hate Jesus's mom.

Could it be she's somehow conflating the picture of a iris with Iris Wheeler/Carrington from Another World? I remember she was kind of evil. (Yes, I'm dating myself with a reference like that.)
