Only that he asked Jesus to "walk across [his] swimming pool."

And that may have been in a movie, come to think of it... 💜

I stand with this! 💜

To be fair, I was called an "illegal demon goblin" in a live stream comment. I'm recycling slightly....

But yeah! Get the wacky hair colors back! 💜

Some people really hate competition...especially failed businesspeople who have to rely on extortion. 💜

Yeah, I can't tell if I'm in the "Skittle-haired they / them activists" or the "soy-faced pajama-clad work-from-home HR apparatchiks."

I think I'll choose "pie-faced Skittle-haired work-from-home science activist demon goblin."

My family just saw #TronAres with my friend Chrysta. It was surprisingly eloquent and thoughtful.

Plus the @nin.com soundtrack was absolutely gorgeous. So layered, so many themes...wow. It was the perfect complement.

And #JaredLeto plays the perfect program!!

Are we ever truly limited by anything other than #thoughts and #beliefs? Or will the #DivinePlan only be delayed, not denied? Get inspired by #TraceyNapier and her story of shattering perceived obstacles.

I got an email from LouLou yesterday. She's OK - just stepped away from social media. If you like, DM me an email and I'll forward it. She said she'd like to be in touch with people on email.

We just finished #OnlyMurdersInTheBuilding season 5. It was...good, although I don't have the same anticipation for Season 6 that I did with the other seasons.

Am I old and jaded @stevemartinreally.bsky.social...?

Listen, I recognize sanitation is important as much as the next girl. But I'll wait to buy a new Honda until after they've retired the Poo Truck.

Oh, thank you for telling me that! I have on my list of things to do today to respond to your comment! I'm glad to know you got the info! I'll still respond for that audience, but I appreciate we closed that loop. 💜💜💜

You're very welcome! I was concerned as well - LouLou was a guest on my podcast and a friend. Plus...not like the support for this community is getting any better! We need to care for our own! 💜

She is, and it sounds like she wants to be connected with people via email.

I'm happy to pass along a collection of email addresses for anybody who sends me a DM or a message through my website (in bio). 💜

My understanding is - as "a lass just trying to live her life" - she didn't want to leave any doors open for offers of support. 💜

Is being #transgender unnatural, as some #Christians claim on social media? Or is discovering and manifesting #identity and #gender why #humanity exists at all? Hear what #science observes in #Nature in this live stream!
