We need to find a way to talk about Black (women) candidates that is expansive enough to reckon with racism (misogynoir) while at the same time acknowledging those candidates are humans who sometimes make bad policy commitments or campaign choices

What’s gone on for the last few years isn’t working

Version 1 to version 2. Note I have become EXTREMELY Picky about religious cards bc there is so much bad theology out there

I mean--there is a discover tab, which people who are "found on it" don't like that much but I have found if you actually use it to "listen to" ie read ppl and try 2discern what content u like...yeah...(I do admit that the topics tabs are not that helpful, but maybe that's healthier)

to the printers

because I am a writer and that's how art works.

Today I think I have it and will send it

Silly example, I just put together "An Easter card that is not too sappy, has good theology and basically doesn't suck." My first couple of drafts said what I wanted...but not well.

So frustrating

So then I let it go a couple of days and came back and attacked again.

This chart also applies to writing fiction, FYI.

Waiting for the moment that The Pres and Congress gets to be held responsible
since the DOW is below 50,000

welp

WE do have a culture

colonization sucks

*number not exact, the commentator was giving best guesstimate

Someone said that they estimate the war will cost about a billion a day

I can't even comprehend that amount of $$ TBH
But I do know that healthcare should be free
teachers should be paid
libraries should be open
children should be fed
housing is a right
etc.

I’d argue that knowing how to apologize is in fact essential to coalition building.

Disarmed God Because you hung up your weapon, Help us to hang up ours

Amen

We Pray

But only grow food
Food
to feed one another

Disarm us
Disarm Humanity
So that we learn the art of War
No more

Instead you come clothed in peace,
"Peace I will give you" Jesus,
Prince, Keeper, Steward of Peace

You don't know any such presence
The power you exude doesn't need
any buffoonery of triumphalism

There is no God of
Guns, bombs or violence
Not here
You repeat
that is not You

You are the God of
Disarmament
And healing
And give ears
to those who are willing to hear
And help those
who are bystanders
powerless
marginalized

and heal and disarm
at the tensest of moments

An ear got cut off
And no one could hear the
other's side (talk about symbolism)
You heal the slave of the enemy
...Holy Spirit the fact that you
come to the marginalized
and oppressed at this moment

Jesus I remember
You disarmed
everyone
At YOUR ARREST
when things could
go down in
absolute violence

(we can talk about
consent
and disability
not taking away
From your wholeness
Later)

That you healed
The blind man
Of sins and his disability
so that he had to be seen
as a person with or without
your disability
Stopping so called
microaggressions
Disclusion and other
forms of ableist violence
against him

It is little wonder
That some people
find Rainbows
Offensive

That you hung
your weapon in
the sky:
Publicly
As a reminder
That you are
the Nonviolent God
The God of Love
