Fighting for democracy should not be this expensive. From unemployment to student loan increases to needing to help folx run for office. It’s worth it; but how about some campaign reform.

Trump Is Shutting Down the War On Cancer

America’s cancer research system, which has helped save millions of lives, is under threat in one of its most productive moments.

Glad to hear this!

Thanks for sharing Rowan. So I imagine this includes folx in the seats and the leaders? Do you feel you can have good conversations about God with both?

I’m glad to hear the leadership is gracious! That goes a long way.

Thanks so much for sharing. I hope you are able to find the right place of worship that will value your presence and not make you feel guilty for attending the way you wish.

I’m feeling a bit disillusioned by church these days. I know I’m not alone. But if you still attend, can you tell me in a sentence or two why you stay?

This is what happens when justice serves power instead of people.

Banksy’s latest piece shows a judge beating a protester. They rushed to throw up barriers to hide it.

We need this here because it looks a lot like our own Supreme Court vs. the people.

"We should not have to live in a country where the Government can seize anyone who looks Latino, speaks Spanish, and appears to work a low wage job. Rather than stand idly by while our constitutional freedoms are lost, I dissent." —Justice Sonia Sotomayor

The Justice Department is compiling the largest set of national voter roll data it has ever collected. They claim their goal is to prove that “troves of undocumented immigrants have voted illegally.” That’s not the real objective.

What Works? Let’s keep the parts of evangelicalism that work… was a paraphrased comment from a talk I recently heard at a gathering of progressive Christians I attended.*

“It is not just a question of who is being platformed. We need to start asking why do we need platforms?”

Hey book industry people in Canada.What is the Canadian equivalent to 'Publishers Weekly'?

Where do bookstores get their new release ideas from?

Next year, Americans will see the biggest jump in health insurance costs in 15 years.

Meanwhile, the six largest health insurers raked in more than $31 billion in net income last year.

Still not sure if we need Medicare for All?

The thing about living in a human society is you either decide that everyone (except those for whom it would be medically dangerous) has to take VACCINES into their bodies or everyone (with no exceptions at all) has to take VIRULENT PATHOGENS in from those around them and, look, the first is better.

I recently visited an ICE detention center with @ravenreveals.bsky.social just outside of Chicago. Kidnapping people off the streets isn’t keeping us any more safe.

Let’s close this facility and all the other ones like it down.

The 100 lowest-paying US corporations spent $644B on stock buybacks from 2019 to 2024.

Buybacks artificially boost share prices and inflate CEO pay.

The typical worker at these companies earned $35k last year.

Meanwhile, the average CEO was paid $17.2M

See the problem?

Things feel uncertain right now, Illinois.

I want you all to know we’re doing everything we can to protect your rights.

There is a recurring message in the Bible.
🙏🏻It’s simple🙏🏻
If you think the book 📖 allows you to starve children 👶🏻keep medicine💉💊 from the sick😷and look away 👀 while people are slaughtered praying 🙏🏻 in churches🕍 or synagogues ⛪️,
your ideology is flawed.

Yay! Trans woman interviewing another trans woman (and my "token cis" brother @paulhoard.bsky.social ) about our scholarship! Check it out!

Rep. Stansbury:
“What we heard today is a cover-up. A cover-up potentially involving foreign countries and foreign actors. As you will find out in coming days and weeks, this goes all the way to the top. Because there’s happen to be a very powerful person who doesn’t want these stories out.”

It’s time for these victims receive justice. It’s time for Trump to stop protecting the rich & powerful & to start telling the truth. It’s also time for Republicans in Congress to find the courage to sign the discharge petition that would force a vote to release the Epstein files. (2/2)

I used to read books like Lord of the Rings or watch movies like Star Wars and think the villains were unbelievable. And of course, now watching the tech oligarchs (who could not spend all their money if they tried) destroy civilization for power, I’m like, guess I was wrong. People are that awful.

If evangelicals cared about the unborn, America would have universal healthcare and gun control.

This is how we know pro-life Christians are deeply un-serious people.

Hey folx, I now have an IG account if you’re interested in following me there. It’ll be a mix of #asexuality basics & #ace theology.

Good white liberal Christians™️ will tell you "If your table doesn't have space for marginalized people then you need to build a bigger table" but they are wrong.

If your table doesn't have space for marginalized people, walk away and join the marginalized at their table. That is where Jesus is.

Eucontamination: Disgust Theology and the Christian Life is out now! Our book is available now!
