suffering greatly from it’s summer and I don’t really have a schedule and I’m part time employed disease (autism)

make me ready, Lord, for whatever

trump is either sending seal team six after elon or they're both gonna show up together at prayer breakfast on sunday or something like "oh, I couldn't stay mad at you"

Heck yeah…June in Chicago!

Chicago:

BREAKING: Federal judge orders that hormone therapy and social accommodations be maintained for transgender people in federal prisons, blocking Trump admin policies. Judge Royce Lamberth, a Reagan appointee, granted class certification and prelim. injunction in a lawsuit challenging the policies.

gay people on ferry to Provincetown need to let me play euchre…..

I’m thinking again about how much public opinion (in Europe as well as here!) seems to HATE people seeking asylum, specifically. I think because asylum is a plea for help, and at root we have antichrist contempt for vulnerability. We shamefully disdain mercy.

unrelated, I have Opinions but they would start Discourse and I am therefore keeping them to myself, but please rest assured that I am Correct and Moral and Intelligent and my opinions would bear this out if I were to share them

The secret is, even gang members are just people. The only way out of this propaganda trap is to avoid the criminalization impulse

Gala's Christ

lgbtq clergy what do you wear to pride when you’re going to pride with your church / diocese ⚓️

I have to say figuring out confirmation curriculum / writing it is the hardest part of job so far? or at least the one I dread?

WOW. Federal judge orders the release of Kseniia Petrova, the Russian researcher detained by ICE for months and recently charged for allegedly smuggling frog embryos into the United States.

A huge step from HHS that is at odds with science showing significant risks for young children and pregnant women — and that directly contradicts *the FDA's own publication* from last week listing pregnancy as a high-risk condition that would qualify people for this fall's Covid vaccine

It’s been Bleak out here today but the farmers market was open and I didn’t realize it and everyone look at these mushrooms

We unpack the GOP Murder Bill’s historic cuts to Medicaid, bans on trans care, and then we discuss the FDA sabotage of COVID vaccines. Also: just for fun—Who do you think gets booted first from Trump’s health fascist clown car? RFK, Makary, Bhattacharya, Means, Oz or Prasad?

I will not feed the pontificating about this, because my God literally told me to “Give to anyone who asks you, and don’t turn away from anyone who wants to borrow from you.” I already fail to do this as I am able, which is to my own soul’s judgement on the last day. But there is nothing to debate.

I need to see Bruce Springsteen

coming up with my big theory of which board games I like (no subjective board games only objective ones)

the unspoken corollary to this has always been “being trans is so seductive and interesting that people get unwittingly sucked in”

aHhhhhhhhhhh (this would cause me to not have my hrt covered unless I switch into much much more expensive church pension group plan. and I hope and pray CPG keeps hrt + trans surgeries and I’m insanely lucky to have back up insurance option)

God damn this evil country.

Columbia University Acting President Claire Shipman welcomed to Columbia College's graduation ceremony with sustained jeers and boos. Minutes later, students break out in loud chants of "Free Mahmoud":

lmfao at Columbia’s graduation and they keep giving a little speech about how much they loveeeee free speech but if you protest or even think about protesting we will destroy you

ROUTINE IS A LINK WITH THE PAST

I got interviewed today as part of a study about grad student experiences (NSF study actually) and they asked, what's been the worst part of grad school so far? Wasn't too hard to pick, gotta be the police violence

back in nyc and got called sir at the pizza shop next to Penn station only in New York

DHS: "Our 'We are not the Gestapo' t-shirts have people asking a lot of questions already answered by our shirts."

You know you’re winning when you post “We are NOT the Gestapo!”

thinking today about some of the practical material resources churches have during this time. the people from Luce who responded to the ICE call ran out of know your rights cards because they didn’t have good printer access. How many of our churches have printers and copiers that can be used?
