Trump is an absolute scumbag. Think about who heā€™s talking to, a man whose country has been bombed for years now. So gross. And JD Vance his little rat.

So many Eva Christians have been taught themselves that they are victims, when really they are bullies & cruel.

This is privilege of the west. Others have polluted water bc the west dumps their waste elsewhere.

So many ppl want to work with ā€œcomplex pplā€ within the church, but no one wants to carry the pain of ppl constantly lying to you. The Holy Spirit is the one who carries me through the work I do, & I canā€™t imagine doing my job w/out God.

Thank you so much to @bethallisonbarr.bsky.social for generously sharing thoughts about her new book and patiently responding to a whole range of associated issues and questions. "Becoming a Pastor's Wife" is available for pre-order now!

Iā€™m not saying Iā€™m judging you, butā€¦

Brought a faux cow hide from Temu, hoping itā€™s so bad it actually is a real oneā€¦.. šŸ¤žšŸ¼

Watching Tottenham for the first time this season, and now am appreciating my stressed out state which didnā€™t give me the bandwidth to watch Tottenham this season

Thereā€™s a lot of white South Africans that moved to the UK after the apartheid realising SA wasnā€™t going to work for them anymore, & thatā€™s how I see many US white women eva celebs when they jumped ship in 2020. Everyone celebrates them, but we see it. We see it.

ppl whinging about ā€œthe churchā€ who walked away a few years ago. But some of us stayed. Some of us work w/ the homeless, those w/ additional needs & everything in between. Some of us are off sick due to stress. So miss me w/ your tweeting, you left, move on w/ your life.Let us who stayed do the work

Huh? Itā€™s the Super Bowl already. lol. Shows how the world recognises this. But seriously, is this the end of the American football series already?

A man who is violent & i banned him from my workplace. Iā€™m not there for one day & he comes in drunk being abusive (knowing Iā€™m not there) & Iā€™m riddled with guilt & frustration. Ministry is a trip.

Amazing how Iran doesnā€™t use Bahrain like they do with Yemen & Palestiniansā€¦ JK they only abuse the poovos

20ā€™s relationship with brother: whereā€™s the best place to go out partying when home? 40ā€™s relationship with brother: which SSRI meds works best for you?

Good things at work: getting 5* for food hygiene & seeing a guy out of prison whoā€™s trying to stay off drugs Not so good: being abused by a guy out of prison & someone whoā€™s been doing well came in drunk & police looking for her for stealing. The f*/n ying/yang of church ministry

I was today years old when I found out Aussies & NZā€™landers were part of the Vietnam shitshow, sorry, war. (& ftr I wrote an ethics essay on American Xnity & the Vietnam war, so my ignorance is worse šŸ˜¬).

Americans have short memories. The NATO countries went to bat for the US (questionably why they shld have but the west stuck together) so when US ignores what the west did for the US for 20yrs & piss on them now, see what happens.

Ftr USA tariffs hit the world. This is what Trump is hoping. BUT High inflation/growth in the US means high inflation & growth throughout the world. But if you play politics (which is just a game & always has been) USA will harm themselves ultimately. Bc every empire falls.

This is the proper way of Skiing y'all

Stop blaming immigrants for your lack of desire to get up, wash your face, & go to work. Bonus points for recognising youā€™re owed nothing outside of working hard.

If you consume more than you produce, then, idk what to tell you, youā€™re f*cked in the long run. Thanks for coming to my economic talk.

Thereā€™s no ā€œfirstsā€ when it comes to loving people. How is this not a pretty basic biblical thought? You love appropriately not hierarchically.

Who said it? ā€œItā€™s not about saving lives, but saving souls?ā€ A) Doug Wilson B) Osama Bin Laden

When I see fundie pastors going on about ministry, I wonder if my work w/ a ton of homeless ppl teaching them Rummicub & spending time playing that game w/ them wld even be on their radar. Yet those ppl talk to me & I build relationships.

When someone says youā€™re great at your job & you know youā€™re great at your job

Waiting for the French to demand it be called the French Channel from now on.

Iā€™m in a McDonalds car park and the car opposite has their hazards on. And Iā€™m just glad Iā€™m not epileptic

North Korea. Loving how much you love your ppl when you send them abroad #russia #canonfodder

A friend from uni sent me a photo of a belt sheā€™s using for snowboarding & said she bought it to copy me when we were at uniā€¦. Is how cool I was back then & now Iā€™m just a mum telling drunk ppl to stop drinking & playing rummicub at work šŸ«„

Watching an Italian police drama and the subtitles regarding sending the police van was ā€œsend the paddy wagonā€. Which is a common turn of phrase in England, but just realised how racist that is to the Irish.

Bin Laden was really was the ultimate nepo baby.

Tbh Iā€™d want my country to fight to get me or my family back.

No one sighs are hard as a Labrador who has the best life.
