Trump and the courts

I am not going to be posting on Facebook, except for funny things. I want to fly more "under the radar." As a member of the LGBTQIA+ community (and therefore potentially in the crosshairs of Trump and his minions), I want to be a little less visible to the powers that be. That…

Tried to warn people

I know I’ve not posted in a while. My heart has been too broken. This needs posting everywhere. I have submitted this to Snopes for fact checking, but I have found this information in multiple news sources.Again, saw this type of thing coming and tried to warn you. I hope…

Sharing because this is important.

Muskrats (love this name)!

What you CAN do…

Birthright citizenship

A question was asked to me about Birthright citizenship. I thought I’d share what I told my friend. It falls under the 14th Amendment to the Constitution. It has long been held to apply regardless of citizenship. Only a Constitutional Amendment can change this. No a…

Have Hope – things are being done

You say: they shutdown USAID.

You mean: they illegally broke in to a secure facility over a weekend, hijacked sensitive data on vulnerable people and US businesses, destroyed property Americans paid for, cut off resources for sick and hungry families, and fired Americans across the country.

One more thought for today

Post for religious freedom

I’ve made my calls, have you?

This morning I have made six phone calls: two to the offices of my senator and two to the offices of my representatives requesting that Elon Musk’s illegal activities be put to an end. Mr. Musk is an un-elected official operating without congressional approval. He and…

Hitler – Trump: A Comparison

A most interesting reflection on authoritarian leadership, from a wise pastoral leader, Rev. Langdon Hubbard: “I have spent the past few weeks reading and studying Adolph Hitler's autobiography, "Mein Kampf," which is translated as "My Struggle." He began writing it in…

Actually read this whole thing, it has a bullet pointed list of 40+ of the worst things Trump has done since inauguration. Don't get numb.

Agreed

Federal Spending Freeze

I’ve gotten shit for saying this in the past, but the reigning conservative attitude is playground bully. Not just mean, but juvenile. Adults should be embarrassed to partake in it. And I think at least some of this behavior is influenced by internet culture, which is dominated by actual children.

Worth posting to the blog page…

The sermon that got me in trouble…

I thought I would share my post January 6, 2021 sermon that got me in trouble with some folks. I had used the term "Patriotic Christianity" rather than the new-at-the-time term "Christian Nationalism." Oh well. Here it is: 01-10-21 My Bonhoeffer MomentDownload

So, this is our Country

After January 6, 2021 a few of my friends and/or acquaintances suggested that I was “panicking “ for no reason. That I had no reason to fear Trump or his cronies.Well - I was right to panic.In less than a week the Trump Administration has come for undocumented immigrants…

Sometimes I ask fellow Christians what in the Bible would back up Trump… his hate and division. They bring up when Jesus showed anger and flipped the money changer tables.

They miss the point, he was angry they were perverting the temple, which is what Christian MAGA is doing to the church

For Canadians, once you're in the hospital, the province takes care of the bill.

No one in Canada has ever declared bankruptcy because of hospital bills.

America is, in fact, alone in this regard.

I think everyone should get to know the west African term “wahala”.

It generally means “chaos”, “confusion”, or “drama”. A clusterfuck.

I’ve been on a mission for years to use it more regularly in my work.

Because—- *gestures at everything*

See wahala?!???
