Just emailed my pediatrician to find out what vaccines i might be able to get my kid early because...RFK jr hates pediatric well-being.
Anyone know if 2025 has a 60 day warranty?

Until people start seeing disabled people as human beings and including us in liberation movements, civil rights are not safe for anyone.

i’m not going to say who this kid was…

the alt national parks is inviting me to boycott tesla...
absolutely. for many reasons.
luckily, my vocation as a pastor, and related pay check that doesn't quite measure up to the attached student loans, has pre-emptively made me a life time tesla boycotter 😂
...
but now to boycott with some gusto!

Everett? Where you at? (I want to protest...but I don't want to park 😂)
I will. I will. But if Everett peeps know of something happening here, please oh please hit me up.

Something else I think people fail to realize is that Texas v. Beccera seeks to declare Section 504 unconstitutional due to spending clause regulations. Spending clause is also the mechanism behind the Civil Rights Act. This would set precedent. www.disability-rights-watch.com/2025/02/12/w...

Musk called this kid a parasite while DOGE spent $14 million in two weeks.

My oldest was on a DDA medicaid waiver and received therapies through IDEA. My youngest is on extended Medicaid. My mother is a retired teacher who enjoys Medicare and her earned Social Security.
Elon Musk openly calls these children and this respected elder "parasites."
This has to end. Now.

When I began to suspect I couldn’t save my oldest, I measured every day against:
What I owed her
What wonder we could sneak into a hard day?

Even if we can’t save some things,
What do we owe one another?
And what wonder we squeeze into this day?

Lets go down fighting, playing, loving

valentines

*what arT will you make with this day
apparently typos are also in today's craft supply bucket

I made five calls. Slightly cried through two calls. Wept after. Now to prep valentine crafts for kid.
Today is a mixed media artwork using construction paper, googly eyes, glue sticks, cell phones, story, rage, tears, laughter, and the words "I love you."
What are will you make with this day?

And so, I say to my betrayers: "What radicalized you? It was certainly not anything in the Bible...I fear it was an orange calf." /9

But also, I am not going to let them say that believing everyone deserves housing, food, a voice, welcome...these are not radical stances. They are woven into the very fabric of the earth. Love, welcome, diversity, equity, and inclusion are essential tenants of the Christian faith. /8

There's that meme going around: "What radicalized you?" "Teaching me the Bible." And, yes. /7

Owning that you have been betrayed is a sacred act. Letting tears fall over your betrayal is a sacred baptism, mirroring Christ's tearful prayers in the garden.
I want to affirm that *you* have been betrayed. You are not alone in being betrayed. /6

If you angry that *you* are the one forced to leave when *you* are living those sacred texts, I want to speak to you as a fellow prodigaland as a pastor: you have been betrayed. We have been betrayed. That is no overstatement. /5

As a pastor, if you are willing to give me the honor of blessing your walking away - and you do not need anyone's blessing, but if you're willing to honor me by letting me give it all the same - may the Eternal One bless you thoroughly for leaning into liberation and away from toxicity. /4

I have not fallen away.
These people have betrayed me and the Bible they made me memorize.
...
If you are done with Christianity, good literal Lord, Christianity has earned your distain. Thoroughly. /3

These people made me memorize scripture. But they would tell me that *I* have fallen away because I love the Diversity God made, I support Equity, as outlined in the laws of Moses over and over and over again and in Mt 25, and I demand the Inclusion of people Jesus included. /2

Just watched a video of a Lutheran governor refusing to say Lutheran Social Services is not a laundering money.
I have watch Christians throw everyone Christ loved under the bus and ignore every single biblical principle except some verses in Leviticus about who can have sex with whom... /1

she's ready to save democracy...after she gets done re-enacting the lion king with bluey figurines.

why do i not just meet you at a coffee shop the first instant i’m in eugene every time?

ok kid, let’s get quiet and pay attention. he’s quoting Jesus now. you know what he’s saying?
Jesus said whatever you do to neighbors made vulnerable by injustices, you do to Jesus. if you love Jesus, you take care of neighbors and seek justice.

Warnock providing christian ed for my 5 year old.

kid, listening to Raphael Warnock tell a story about a sick mom…
“Wait. That momma lost her job and her doctors? We’ve got to shut that down.”
Amen kid. Wanna be president? I mean she’s not technically eligible or qualified, but neither is Elon Musk…

Warnock can be my pastor and my leader any day. He’s bringing it and I wish every US American was listening to him.

Axios Hill Leaders

News from @stephenneukam.bsky.social: Senate Democrats will hold the Senate floor for the full 30 hours of debate over Russ Vought’s nomination. They’ll hold the floor Wednesday evening into Thursday morning.

You did this, y’all.

everett showing up. i had to leave early. but i adore my neighbors!

so i couldn’t get directly to gender care on their website, but did get there by searching “gender” on their website.
they updated the referral page this month and it looks active…
not necessarily questioning it just wanting to be sure before trying to contact people i know there

i’m definitely not sitting here crying because something i typed had even a small positive impact in the midst of the shitstorm. definitely not sitting here crying.
love you F/friend.
