spirituality defined as faith over self interest feels like the missing piece in understanding current domestic actions and rhetoric.
It will be hard for a lot of white people to grasp-- who have been taught that facts, institutions, rules, laws matter most.

I've long complained that ignoring spirituality in media coverage will harm us. The right-wing has been better at tapping into faith/spirituality than we give credit for.
I like this explanation of authenticity in art. Simple and visceral

I just saw a Cybertruck with a "Baby on Board" sticker and thought that was very self-aware of the owner.

You gotta love how cats are just randomly violent. In 0.5 seconds they go from cuddly purr baby to hissing, spring-loaded death machine

If you can rename the Gulf of Mexico and expect that we respect that, then you can respect it when transgender individuals change their name and pronouns.

Rep. Ballint makes a good point. First they attack and dismiss trans people then they go on to other groups. Trans rights=human rights
I just saw Trump’s latest executive order targeting trans kids and shutting down their health care. I’m asking all of us to stand up with one voice for the trans community.

If you needed a reminder today, their GOAL is to take away your hope, because hopeless people don’t fight back. You’re not alone, we are fighting with you. Find your community. Rest. Then KEEP FIGHTING. Hope is radical. Hope is resistance.

📣 My friend died by suicide because of the hateful bigotry towards the transgender community.

Music (and art) can change the world. Stay filthy heathens!
Tom Morello was right.
And now, we are living in the bonafide Rage Against the Machine era.
It is time to organize.
Our government is not failing us, it is actively trying to destroy us.

Trump wants to annex Canada, which means that somewhere in Canada right now, a nun with an amazing singing voice has taken the job as a nanny for a widowed naval Captain and his 7 children.

Octavia E. Butler signed this copy of Parable of the Sower for my late mother, Patricia Stephens Due.

The power of these Black women inspired me to write an essay after Tr*mp's inauguration in 2017. I've reposted a slightly revised version I hope will bring you hope today.

Surviving President Tr*mp: Lessons from the 1960s and Octavia E. Butler
I originally wrote this essay to coincide with the inauguration of Donald Trump on January 20, 2017. It deeply grieves me to publish it…

My departure with Serano here is that, contrary to her assertion, I do not accept the simplistic notion that brains are "sexed" in some way prior to sociality. I do, actually, think it's unnecessarily essentialist.
