Hungary banned anything that “promotes homosexuality,” which means Pride. However, today over 500,000 people in Budapest told the government to fuck off. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

I’ve read quite a few books / articles written by Christian theologians, exploring the role of the Church in politics. The majority -white, cis hetero males - adopt a centrist position, condemning right wing Christian nationalist ideology, but equally censorious of “left wing identity politics” /1

As a Canadian I find this deeply alarming. Trump is using the same Putin playbook (used with Ukraine) to create the narrative that Canada is an enemy and a threat; justifying more and more punitive measures against us.

Pay attention to your dog’s tongue when panting. It indicates level of heat and need for a break. Narrow & still inside mouth = I’m fine Wider & starting to emerge from mouth = getting warm but ok. Wide at end and fully outside mouth = I need a break to cool down before any more exercise

Disaster at home? Start a war. Have media focus on that. Tale as old as time… www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

A radical Christian just murdered the speaker of a state house but the real worry is the theocratic muslim who said the bus should be cheaper

Catholic bishops and nuns, Protestant pastors, imams and rabbis have joined together to oppose Trump’s “Big Beautiful Bill”. Why? 122.7 billion spent on anti-immigration 46.5 b for border walls 45 b for detention centres 15 b to expand deportation 16.2 b to hire more ICE agents…/1

Nailed it @briantylercohen.bsky.social

I’ve been promised my office @stjohnsdixiechurch.bsky.social back for Sunday. I’m not holding my breath. Sigh.

A woman at the dog park just complimented Chester saying “what a beautiful white dog”. I responded “He’s actually more cream with gray and mocha accents.” So you know… I feel I’ve done my part as a gay man for #Pride 🌈🙄

Back where he belongs. #DailyChester

The floof is gone, and Chester looks like he’s lost 2/3 of his weight…. But he’s super energetic and much more comfortable. Thanks for taking the time with him Dog World. #DailyChester

God bless and guide the new Primate of the Anglican Church of Canada - Bishop Shane Parker.

Chester has been at the groomers for over 3 hrs now. He’s going to come back to us looking like a skinned rat. Oh well, he’ll be a lot cooler and easier to keep clean. But I’m already missing my little floof head.

Praying for the Anglican Church of Canada today, as they gather as part of General Synod to elect the next Primate of our Church. Come Holy Spirit Come!

White Christian nationalism is highly selective. It’s kind of the point.

The world feels heavy—divided, uncertain, and tired.
 I wrote a 30-day devotional out of a desire to help us reconnect with the love of Jesus and live with hope and purpose again. Daily scripture, reflection, journaling, and action.

Evening stroll. #DailyChester

When your husband sends you flowers while he’s away for the week working 💕🌸 I love peonies. And I love @thetastate.bsky.social

A whole lotta clergy seem to confuse career ambition with “zeal for the kingdom”.

I hope London comes out in full force to protest this state visit.

Slow morning here…. #DailyChester

#DailyChester is overdue for his summer cut. It was supposed to happen last Friday - and then his groomer called in sick - so he’s rescheduled for Thursday. First they grow out their hair. Then they start hanging with hoodlums listening to rock music, riding motorcycles and overthrowing society.
