At least 600 clergy came to MPLS in the freezing temps, dropping everything from their overwhelming jobs

including like 100 rabbis

to be there in solidarity.

The Bible commands us to care for im/migrants at least 36 times, more than any other commandment.

"Thou shalt not murder" is also a thing.
Religion note: those who have been protesting DHS/ICE in the streets — those Sec. Hegseth labels “lunatics” here — have included hundreds of clergy *just this week.* religionnews.com/2026/01/23/i...

The Neighborhood of Make Believe once put on an opera wherein a corporation sells spray cans that cause a climate change event and the resulting wind storm destroys a whole country until they band together to fight the corporation off.
This is quite literally one of the stupidest human beings alive

Krishnamurti said, “Truth is a pathless land.” I believe this to be true. There is nowhere we need to be other than where we are. As we merge into the new year, I want to encourage you to realize that you are already where you need to be. You are already you right now.

“Trump and the GOP are cutting your budgets to pay for their top-income tax cuts and to send ICE agents out to terrorize your neighborhoods. Making up excuses for arrests doesn’t put food on the table!”

This is the message Democrats need to run on this year.

If little boys are made of snips and snails and puppy dog tails, and little girls are made of sugar and spice and everything nice, our resident expert has informed us that little nonbinaries are made of pineapple, cats, and demon rats.

Truth be told, I'm only really on here for two reasons:

1. To follow people I've met online who I think are great.
2. To actually prove I need social media less now than I did back in my unmedicated doomscrolling days of despair.

What comes next, we shall see!
