It would be a shame to encourage folks to use banned book lists to do strange things like -check them out regularly at the library -request the library order them if they don’t have them -buy them -start or support banned book clubs -organize a banned book kids story time A real shame

We must not move on from this. What he said here is utterly un-American. You either condemn it, laugh it off, or embrace it. History will remember your response.

He’s dangerous, sure. But we need to be watching number two closely. He’s the bigger, long-term threat. He’s a threat to our faith and to our democracy. Don’t grow complacent. Don’t be blinded by ignorance.

The fact that you see how wrong this all is, means your faculties are intact, your mind is fully right, and your heart is working properly; you still have a soul doing what souls are supposed to do: keep you deeply human in profoundly inhumane times. johnpavlovitz.substack.com/p/dont-gasli...

“Just because you use terms like ‘Christian’ or ‘family’ in your organization’s title doesn’t mean it’s Christlike.” — my older friend in her weekly e-letter

So, at what point do our elected officials stand up against all of this? When he wakes up one morning and decides he’s going to send the Senators home indefinitely while his sycophant identifies where costs can be cut there? Don’t tell me he “can’t.” We all know that’s not true.

School vouchers and Education Savings Accounts (ESAs) were sold as school choice, saving kids from "failing" schools or "following the student." In reality, this ESA bill is about none of these. It's just a redistribution of wealth and subsidies for private schools. #TXLege #TxED

And now, the poorest children in the world, and our own Head Start kids, have been cut from grant money to feed them. If “Christians” were really reading their bibles, they would be disgusted. WWJD? Time to get pissed and turn tables!

All humans want to control themselves. Strong people control themselves via self-mastery. Weak people don't have self-mastery, so they attempt to control themselves by controlling others. Autocrats aren't strong; they're dependent & weak. They need to subvert others' freedom to feel self-control.

I’m growing weary of adding “but I can explain,” when claiming my identity. I live in Texas, but I can explain. I am an American, but I can explain. I am a Christian, but I can explain. …

Purity culture isn’t just telling people not to have sex until marriage. It’s scrubbing sexual health, HIV/STI & birth control info from CDC websites. It’s executive orders to enforce a gender binary & ban gender affirming care. It’s abortion bans. It’s the VP saying he wants more American babies.

Disaster aid isn’t a political bargaining chip. Imagine how outraged the GOP would be if a Democrat president withheld hurricane aid from Texas unless they accepted something they opposed. Trump’s threats to California are wrong, immoral, & un-American. Sign this — Help hit 1,000! #NoConditionsOnAid
