Justice for Willow! 🫶🏻. But we humans do need our coffee…

Did Willow get to go out yet? 👀

Wilmer only found out his son had been detained after receiving a phone call on March 15 from his nephew, Luis, who lives with them. That morning was their last time together; they had gone around the corner to do their laundry. Later that day, Wilmer said that his son met with a friend to get help with some errands at the American Red Cross. He learned this from Luis, who looked at the situation from inside the apartment: when his son was on his way back, just steps from his home when ICE agents stopped him. “The officers grabbed him and two other boys right at the entrance to our building. One said, ‘No, he’s not the one,’ like they were looking for someone else. But the other said, ‘Take him anyway.'” That moment marked the beginning of Wilmer’s search for answers — answers he’s still waiting for.

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind.

An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one."

The other said, "Take him anyway."

So they did.

I am just hoping for proof of life…

By no means am I saying stop, keep going. But don’t forget those red areas and states have a lot of blue in them that are fighting, have been, and will be. And are very tired.

Remember you still have a lot of blue dots for varying reasons. And they are needed now more than ever.

Word for the Day:

Tenacity

This means persistence—rarely is something accomplished overnight. It takes persistence to reach a goal.

First they came for the immigrants, and I spoke out, because I’ve read the damn poem before and I know how it ends.

They are here in Arkansas, according to the news and reports on the ground.

Does he know what the Gospels are? 👀

ALL OF THIS!!! Aaaah! I feel like I’m shouting into the void.

Bahahahaha so she shouldn’t step back into HER church. That she leads. That is the seat of HER diocese. They can sit right tf down and learn some lessons in Christianity and walking with Christ from her.

Sorry buddies but we're not stupid

Absolutely my thoughts

Good to see they’re getting cheaper already!

Does no one else remember the movie A Day Without A Mexican? Just wondering… 👀

Well first, finding the creators I liked and followed from the other place on here 🫡. And then learning. Building community. Supporting locally. Trying to remember beauty and art and music and light in the darkness.

Trump officials pause health agencies’ communications, citing review The agencies are charged with making decisions that touch the lives of every American and are the source of crucial information to health-care providers.

Same. Rawdogging through inauguration week is going about as well as I thought it would, though.

You’re adding a whole lot of words that I didn’t say there. And I’m not starting new fights right now. This is a time for community building. I hope you find yours and don’t discount Christians based solely on their faith. Good luck on your journey.

It is what it SHOULD look like. For those who have actually deeply studied the Gospel within its historical context and want to walk with Christ. This is what it SHOULD look like.

And there are still many of us from whom this is what walking with Christ looks like.

Multiple failed epidurals. Felt everything. Every tear. Every repair. Forceps. I’ll spare the internet the worst of it. Then with my last, it happened so fast the epidural didn’t have a chance to even try.

Words matter. Now more than ever let us move with and speak with intentionality.
