You’ll never guess who says he is considering taking away Medicaid and food stamps from up to 70 million Americans…

Leaving X was one of the best recent decisions I’ve made for my mental health…hearing about and joining Bluesky has been one of the better decisions. ❤️‍🩹

But don’t worry. Oklahoma is buying thousands of Bibles for their public schools.

What worries me is that most Americans will simply ignore what is being done in Washington over the next couple of years. They'll turn on the football game, watch an episode of the Real Housewives of Someplace, and ignore it as fundamental freedoms and crucial institutions are carved away.

This is a Constitutional crisis and it’s a family emergency.

Yes, our Democracy is in peril, but our most treasured relationships with people are in tatters too.

We are trying to salvage both and it’s exhausting.

I believe in LGBTQ+ inclusion because of Jesus and Scripture, not in spite of them.

I believe in it because of the toxic fruit I’ve seen come from marginalizing the queer community and because of the good fruit I’ve seen come from fully affirming LGBTQ+ folks.

The same people who lectured us about “DEI hires” and meritocracy celebrate alleged child predator Matt Gaetz as attorney general.

Every accusation is a confession.

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens.

Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the “undocumented.”
