This AI generated picture of Trump seems to draw pretty directly from Warhammer 40k imagery. For those who don't know, 40k is about a grimdark fascist dystopian future where women are nothing more than breeding stock.

40k is supposed to be a parody, but they're taking like a "how to" manual.

Lol YES.

Ann the goes to Threads where she recounts this story and explains that it's all because she doesn't understand social cues as a neurodivergent person and someone responds with an unrelated story about a customer service interaction they once had.

Faith that evolves My hardest challenge to my faith was recovering from a relationship with God that was based on anxiety, performance, and achievement.

Hope and faith aren't somewhere I have arrived at. They aren’t a destination. And they aren’t prizes or achievements to unlock more of God’s presence. They are tools I have added to the values I carry with me along the way. open.substack.com/pub/invisibl...

We couldn't make up our minds about where we were willing to draw the Paradox of Tolerance line in the sand, and powerful forces of evangelicalism worked hard. But not so in the MCC, which was queer-led from the beginning. Why did the next generation after the current older core not inherit it?

The perennial and much-lamented "Why" there is something I'm curious about in the same gap of time as the rest of the mainline. Really diving in to what happened in the 1990s-2010s that left us with no 20-40somethings. A gap that continues. I theorized for the UMC that we dragged our feet too long.

The Largest Gay Denomination in the US Is Shrinking. Why? With Southern working-class roots and Pentecostal flair, Metropolitan Community Churches grew in the 1980s and 1990s. But the good times didn’t last.

They line up perfectly.

The funny thing about this meeting is that Mamdani didn't back down on a single policy point or anything he's said about Trump.

No one can agree on what it is or means or does, but it makes people feel the Biggest Feelings:

@edmarkey.bsky.social if you really want to support trans people, start by withdrawing support for dangerous censorship Bills like the Kids Online Safety Act.

KOSA is a Trojan Horse- promising ‘safety' when it will actually harm LGTBQ kids by blocking life-saving resources online.

I only want to hear the word "fellowship" when it involves money for artists or a group taking a ring to Mordor.

a very important PSA for millennial parents of young toddlers:

Swastikas and nooses are hate symbols because they are meant to signal who is hated, they have been used for that purpose, none of this is a mystery.

Removing this designation is an endorsement of these symbols, is an endorsement of violence.

John Calvin Poltergeist:

Remembrance Is Not Enough: HRC’s Annual Report Outlines Ongoing… In Almost 400 Cases of Fatal Violence Against Transgender People Tracked Since 2013, 70% were Against Black People, Nearly 60% Were Black Trans Women, and…

Remembrance is not enough.

Today is Transgender Day of Remembrance. It is a day when we in the trans community remember those who have been murdered or committed suicide in the last year. We read their names, so that they won’t be forgotten. For many of us, it is an emotional day. We know that it could have been us.

I do not have Can't Make Eye Contact disorder or Doesn't Like People disorder. I very much do have I Need a Day to Recover From Crowded Places disorder and Why Is No One Seeing These Connections and Patterns But Me trait and Perhaps My Body Doesn't Need to Keep the Score So Well disorder 😅😅

Briefly returning to Bluesky for a quick rant about how the concept of "dying alone" is stupid and unhelpful.

Every minority group has specific perspectives on systemic failings that other minority groups miss. I feel distinctly qualified on this one by virtue of being aroace. I was always going to "die alone" which gives me the distance required to examine that statement long enough for rage to boil.

What is the function of "I don't want to die alone" as a mantra? To make you marry someone you don't like that much, and stay with them for the rest of your life. You've got a fifty percent chance of dying alone (after your partner) or not (before your partner), but we don't talk about that.

Bread Trek 2025 I had two big goals for the year: I wanted to watch all of Star Trek, and I wanted to bake my own bread. Neither of which I had any experience in. With the exception of the 3D animated show Star Tr…

Yeah, that's sort of the general vibe I was thinking, that it doesn't. I do think your question is relevant today as it was the day of the crucifixion in that oppressed and violent world. The Messiah didn't end the oppression in the streets in the Roman Empire. It's bigger than that.

(Obligatory James Cone mention before someone else does it 😅 I don't have any specific answer, just had to get it first 🤣)

Mmm no, as a sapphic ace girl, I was writing deeply sad songs about unrequited "platonic" yearning for other girls, but how cool purity culture was for making it popular not to have sex with boys! It wasn't just being a goodie teacher's pet nerd; it was HOLY.

You cannot get the volume quiet enough on your phone speaker in a public place so people sitting 4 feet away or less can't hear it. If you are watching videos in a waiting room, in an airport terminal, or at any point using public transportation, and you play sounds from a smartphone, stop it.

Exactly these white evangelical Christians are the very same false prophets Jesus warned you would use his name to commit evil the world has never seen. If you call yourself a Christian and don’t see that, then you most likely are False prophets as-well.
