Ninth Daydream [Video]

[niepokonany]

It's totally almost Fat Tuesday!

I mean there's like a week left, but whatever.

The point is, I'm gonna make like a ton of pączki, and people should come eat it and hang out. I'll be taking donations for Bless the Outcasts -- that's an outreach program to promote good relations between mutants, the LGBTQ-whatver else community, and the Church -- but you don't have to give anything if you don't feel moved to. Also, anybody who's new and Catholic -- or curious about it? -- should totes come with me the next day and take cute Ash Wednesday selfies!

Oh, and also, I'm still side-eyeing the MLF pretty hard for the way things went down in California, and the whole killing people thing, but I'm probably gonna go to that rally just in case. [Because he can't stay out of trouble to save his life.]

Still looking for Mutant Agendas and Mutant Privilege stories, on that note, if anyone wants in on the activist thing without the attacking civilians thing.

Anyway, let me know!

Is that similar to pyshki?

[niepokonany]

...Like, maybe? I don't know. They're like fried, sugar-dusted donuts full of jam or whatever?

[defibrillating]

Oooh yeah that's the same. Man, memories.

[niepokonany]

They're so good, though, oh my god. Like, from my great-grandmother's recipe? They're totally to die for!

[sonofhulk]

How can a day be fat? Is it a day where we eat a lot of food?

[niepokonany]

Yeah, right in one guess!

Like, in Catholicism -- my religion? -- there's this 40-day period where you're not supposed to sing in Church or eat sweet or heavy food or anything. So just before it, we have a big party to use up all the sugar and stuff!

It gets pretty wild some places, but here I think it's mostly just gonna be food.

[sonofhulk]

Oh. If I join in, do I have to not eat those things for 40 days too?

[He's not sure he could convince his other half to go along with that for very long.]

[niepokonany]

[Feliks laughs a bit at that.]

Nah, you're good! Pretty sure the fasting part only applies to people who are actually into the whole Church thing.

[stardustreverie]

Not really religious and all but..Heck, open invite, I'm in.

[niepokonany]

Dude, you don't have to be religious to like good desserts, right?

[stardustreverie]

Point taken. But some people get all uptight about it.

[niepokonany]

Some people will get uptight about anything. You totally can't let that bother you!

[musou_tensei]

Just for the record, we don't actually have proof that the MLF is directly responsible for any deaths. Media hype and all.

[video]

[niepokonany]

Right, ok, but I'm still not super about the aggro rhetoric and the riots and the alleged killing people?

Re: [video]

[musou_tensei]

Me neither... I'm going to that rally.

[video]

[niepokonany]

I'll pack a picnic basket.

And one for everyone else, too.

[totallystoned]

Hmm, and what are you giving up for Lent then?

[video]

[niepokonany]

Huh? Oh, I haven't actually decided yet.

Netflix, maybe?

[totallystoned]

We are all inspired by your sacrifice.

[notacostume]

You're going to making a ton of... what?

voice;

[niepokonany]

Of pączki! They're like, Polish-style jelly donut things.

[notacostume]

Sounds pretty good. Can't say I've ever tried one before.

[gregorydeegan]

"I'll gladly donate. Need any help fund raising?" he asked. "Or with anything else? Peaceful methods to promote peace is a cause I'm all for. Between any and every community."

[He was in his couch fort, of course.]

[niepokonany]

There's always something to do! This is just gonna be a simple thing, though -- food, hanging out, and a donation box. You could help me cook, if you wanna?

[gregorydeegan]

"Sure! Never tried cooking before, so I'll be happy to learn and try!" he said happily.
