What if trump snd elon are ending legitimate govt activity instead of waste bc most of what they called waste was actually legitimate govt activity.

What if, and bear with me for a second, but what if Jesus actually meant the things he said?

My new substack. I've been thinking a lot about what it means to align my finances with my values as a person of faith. open.substack.com/pub/almostex...

Jesus is Lord is a political statement bc it means that the king us not.

You can't just change Jesus' race!!! - People who turned Jesus into a whit guy 1,000 years ago.

My dad served in the military for 20 years. He would be rolling over in his grave if he knew the US and the former USSR KFB agent are now becoming allies, except.... He's still alive and he voted for it. 😔

Another thing, we need to think about 401Ks and IRAs. Most of us are invested in arms manufacturers & predatory financual companies. There are mutual funds that don't put the blood of Palestinian children on my hands & don't make me responsible for predatory lending practices that keep people poor.

Even if you can't dump them all together right away do what you can. I replaced chrome with edge and use Bing instead of Google on most of my devices, but I have a Chromebook, I let my Amazon prime go and basically stopped Walmart and target too. I can't promise, I'll won't buy anything

I hate how we make fun of Majorie Taylor Green and Loren Boebert for bring stupid. It makes me feel a little icky, like "am I playing into a misogynistic trope?" But then they open their mouths and they're just soooooo aggressively stupid.

Hear our prayer.

Why does the make always make sure to call him "President Trump" every time they reference him, but President Biden is just Biden and half the time they don't even pronounce Kamala correctly?
