The lyrics to this song are in my head today. I've been listening to this album (The Smoker You Drink, The Player You Get) since I was in my teens, and it still resonates today.

It's so enjoyable making fun of Donald Trump I hardly notice I'm losing my rights.

Las Vegas Metro police will not engage in mass deportation roundups, according to LVMPD Sheriff Kevin McMahill. "Officers will not stop and question, detain, arrest, or place an immigration hold on any individuals on the grounds they are an undocumented immigrant."

Let’s go, #Lions!!

No, Speaker Johnson, the book of Genesis is not “pretty clear” on gender. Also, Genesis is literary myth, not science. Also, separation of church and state is a thing. Also, okay, I’ll stop there before I resort to name calling. 🙄

The next 4 years will be horrific for immigrants. Please follow the steps below if you are an immigrant or send it to any immigrant you know. I’m afraid anyone who just looks like an immigrant will be caught up in this process. RT to share far and wide, please! Follow @nilc.org for more info!

My usual practice on here is to follow back those who follow me. However, this excludes: - Spam bots - Porn bots - Accounts that resemble a spam/porn bot - Accounts that primarily post selfies like they’re looking for a date - Accounts that impersonate celebrities - MAGA - Accounts with 0 posts

Alive I watch the news -- wars disasters corruption unprecedented storms I ask the Ancestors: Has it always been this bad? Their answer: We are dead Our troubles passed Now is always the hardest time to be alive. #BlueSkyPoetry #Poem

I don’t want Greenland. I don’t want the Panama Canal. I want my Social Security and universal healthcare.

Hays was concerned about what he called “smug hostility” among more conservative Christians toward LGBTQ church members, something he felt in part responsible for and something he hoped to make amends for with his new book.

January 6th, 2021 should have been the end of Donald Trump’s political career. For as long as I live, I will not understand how it wasn’t.

Back. To. Back.

It’s been 5 yrs since I’ve been part of a church community and there are times when I really miss it. I’ve considered checking out some meetings, but working Sundays makes it challenging and Saturday night options are either not LGBTQ inclusive or some other disqualification. #ImNotGivingUpYet.

Sarah McBride, 36, becomes the first openly transgender member of Congress to take office.

I plan on waking up a brand new person without the skills, discipline, or follow through to sustain any lasting change. Wish me luck.

I found this to be a relatable, fun, and occasionally frustrating listen. Check out April’s story about leaving conservative evangelicalism and Christian nationalism on this episode of Data Over Dogma.

one of my favorite things in the bible is when mary found out she was pregnant with jesus she started talking shit about the rich

If I ever return to a regular habit of prayer, this portion of Mary’s Magnificat is definitely going to be included in the liturgy: “He has brought down the powerful from their thrones and lifted up the lowly; he has filled the hungry with good things and sent the rich away empty.” Luke 1:52-53

The biggest divide in America today is not between “right” and “left,” or between Republicans and Democrats. It’s between democracy and oligarchy. The old labels — “right” and “left” — prevent most people from noticing they’re being shafted. Know the truth.

Today the great divide is not between left and right. It’s between democracy and oligarchy. Let me explain.

People who've never been dependent on a paycheck should not get to decide how long you can go without yours.

Them: ‘Dana, now that the orange felon will be back in office, maybe you should tone down the gay a little.’ Me heading into 2025: ‘We ride at dawn!’
