Have you seen the pastor? monk? on tiktok who’s been talking about Neon Genesis Evangelion and christianity? I was just listening to the Jeremiah episodes and Benito said it didn’t really have anything to do with christianity but this man is really highlighting some interesting stuff

I have not seen it but maybe Chris has. I don’t use Tiktok except for the ones people send me directly.

And while Eva certainly uses a lot of Jewish and Christian imagery I still contend it is primarily “exotic” set dressing from Ultraman superfans. That said, I’m sure you could find lots of connections if you dug into it, like how Jesus kept refusing to get in robot

What is “Neon Genesis Evangelion?”

This post is factually correct, but I would like to note that the ending shot, in which the Enterprise rides off into the sunset, elevates the entire hour of television to Actual Art.

If you missed the livestream, no fear! You can still catch Chris and Benito joining Jonny and Sasha of The Magnus Archives and MacGuffin and Co playing their own RPG setting Guardians, where we played as terrible nuns Sister Madelaine, Bernice, and Hildegard of Bangin trying to save the French village of Montancien from a hellmouth

It is.............incredibly fun

My character for my next dnd campaign. Meet Sunshine, a 15-year-old monk who’s very excited to be leaving the monastery for the first time.

P.S. the writing on her cloak is actually the language of the Ancients from Stargate SG-1 and according to the font I downloaded it says KICK ASS TAKE NAMES.

idk who needs to hear this but you deserve as many knives as you can carry

If you can’t laugh about your pal taking a sudden and unexpected trip to the hospital, what CAN you laugh at?
