The 2025 Arizona Bach Festival starts on Sunday, Feb. 16 at 3:00 pm with a complete performance of Handel's Messiah using early instruments at Camelback Bible Church in Paradise Valley. Info/tickets: arizonabachfestival.org

Not that this will do one bit of good, but it's still a form of resistance. (and yes, I saw the Atlantic op-ed about this)

Go, Eagles! Take down the MAGA-infested Chiefs!

There is no such fucking thing as being “too woman” to pilot a helicopter, “too gay” to land a plane or “too black” to be an air traffic controller. There is however, such a thing as being too hateful, too stupid & too sociopathic to be president. And we call that Donald Trump.

This is apparently illegal, but does the lawless Felon-in-Chief actually have to obey any laws? www.politico.com/news/2025/01...

Trump is deporting the guy who mows your lawn but releasing the guy who bashed a police officer’s head in back to your community.

It’s almost as if we all told them this would happen and they just didn’t fucking care. Or something.

Bishop Budde is NOT a "Radical Left hard line Trump hater" and she's NOT going to apologize for calling for mercy and for Trump to "honor the dignity of every human being, to speak the truth to one another in love and walk humbly with each other and our God for the good of all people."

Arizona Faith Network is presenting a series of very timely events on "Peacemaking in Divided Times." Rev. Dr. Gary Mason, the founder of "Rethinking Conflict," is a highly-qualified expert, and was actively involved in the "Northern Irish Peace Process." membership-usa.keela.co/peacemaking

Thank you, Bishop Budde, for speaking the truth in love. May we all have your courage to be boldly pastoral and prophetic. youtu.be/mI4h4zbkNMU?...

But he will surely claim the biggest audience of all time.

Somewhere in the White House, an employee is cleaning ketchup off the wall.

Fearlessly speaking truth to power! This Bishop is my new hero! www.pbs.org/newshour/pol...

Today, Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde boldly called out Donald Trump for his hatred and bigotry at the National Cathedral Prayer Service. Now, the GOP is attacking her for speaking truth to power. REPOST if you stand with Bishop Budde against Trump!

Vance is a liar, or he would have tried to block Trump's egregious action, or would at least disavow it, publicly.

I guess it's time to shake the digital dust off my little tribute website to the #LiarInChief - trumpisabigfatliar.com

#FOTUS wouldn't put his hand on the Bibles that the #Hamburglar was holding, so that's it -- he's officially #NotMyPresident

Thank you President Biden!

While some of us are observing a "Lights Out" week on the Meta platforms, this will be a good time to explore and become more active here on BlueSky. Thanks for the follows!

I think that Mark Zuckerberg might be having a bad day... #Facebookdown

Not a landslide, not a mandate, and despite misinformation to the contrary, he didn't get a majority of the popular vote!

There's a growing Methodist presence on BlueSky! 😉

I was just informed that it’s World Kindness Day. I think we all need this one today, but I’m also here to remind you that you can be kind and still not take any nonsense from anyone.

Hello, World!
