Dorothy Day (1980) worked tirelessly for peace and social justice and was a knock-out to boot.
She considered herself a Christian Anarchist: "One must always live in a state of permanent dissatisfaction with the Church".
Her cause for canonization began in March 2000 and remains open.

This thread. I think it's incredibly important to remember that the TERF fragility/rabidity started to take off right around the height of me too, and the main message they had was "men are inherently violent."
They targeted trans WOMEN, while at the same time excusing actual violence from cis men.

MeToo was intentionally co-opted by the type of 'feminist' that berates and abuses people for not conforming to gender, while insisting that a uterus makes a woman...

This idea that #metoo was a temporary piece of insanity that happened because America was too woke...
Fuck you. It was a temporary moment in time when people decided, for the first time, that 20 women were finally equal to one man.

I like this. Since under RFK Jr, Covid shots are now for people with underlying conditions that put them at risk, Michigan’s chief medical executive Dr. Natasha Bagdasarian states that not having the most recent Covid shot constitutes such an underlying condition.

Yes, I canceled my Disney+ subscription. It’s super disappointing to see them capitulate so quickly to the Not See’s demands. And I got PBS Passport and renewed my Acorn subscription instead.

for some Sunday reading (I didn't write the headline obvs, because... YES, IT DOES) here's a throwback from me in 2019 www.theguardian.com/books/booksb...
Does it matter if Mary Shelley was bisexual?
Her letters show that the author turned to women after her husband’s death. It’s an important insight into intimate history – and an inspiring example

You should also know the astrology of your book babies once they’re published and plan accordingly. I’m seeing someone whose work is getting hit bigly by this Pisces/Virgo eclipse series. I kind of feel bad for them. Knowing the astrology would have helped them out so much.

Sometimes shutting the hell up and staying offline and not acting out of pocket are the only things you can do right after a lunar eclipse occurs in your sign. #pisceseclipse

I rescued two kittens from the dumpster today. Some POS dumped them. They’re reality sweet. The local cat rescue is setting up appointments for then to get fixed and they’ve been vaccinated and checked. So I’m temp fostering them for the week.

A reminder that your Spirtual practice doesn’t need to look like anyone else’s. You don’t have to sit at an alter to meditate, you can go for a walk instead. You don’t have to have an alter, you can sit in nature. You don’t need to buy anything, you can simply use your intention. You are the magic✨
