Richest country in the history of the planet, and we have "lunch debt" for kids in school.
Are you new? You don't know who Sanders is?
Sorry, I can't relate. None of those pieces have teeth marks. Like why even take it apart if you're not going to chew on it?
Good enough for what? Obedient to whom? Deviating from what? What the fuck are you talking about?

One scene in the book hit me particularly hard: a character with three eyes, one weeping while the other two smile as he knots a corpse like a bag. It’s gruesome, sure, but the hidden symbolism makes it even darker—it reflects the Christian Trinity, with Jesus suffering while the Father and Holy Spirit remain distant. It’s a powerful and eerie take on an old concept.
That seems like a fairly wide metaphorical leap. Are you sure that's the intended interpretation? Because it just sounds like body horror to me. The third eye has a lot of symbolism in several religions, and comparing a corpse to a disposable vessel isn't particularly Christian, either.
Either way, yeah, faith is powerful and fragile. It's a function of humanity, an intellectual crutch that gives people the strength to stand on an idea that isn't supported by reality. It is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of the unseen. People who embrace faith for what it is will see it carry them through whatever criticism they face. People who use faith to construct delusions, whether knowingly to benefit themselves or unknowingly because it is all they have ever learned, will meet criticism with anger and resentment.

Of course there's a twist at the end that changes the moment a bit, but it was still hilarious.
Batman is the world's greatest detective. His villains need to compete on an intellectual level, and in fiction a doctorate is short-hand for "smart" and "an expert in the field."
You sound like my kids.
Dad jokes are best when you come up with them with your kids in the house, because then they are home groan.
Feels like a stunt to stir controversy.
