Telling Jesus he'll never make it if he keeps being so hostile to wealth. Advising him to moderate his message to appeal to the Galilee suburbs

Ran my first TTRPG session in awhile! It included: - beetle-like goblins - a wight sewn together with mismatched body parts and stuffed with magic paper and ink - a wizard who has shaped his own flesh so many times that he now resembles a centipede (the party managed to keep him in his gaol)

And you know, you can extend from this to a real important corallary to "Everyone is 12 Now" theory is "There has been a generation-long project to keep people 12." Conservative news and opinon outlets, regressive mass audience entertainment products, etc. all propagandize a chilidish worldview.

So thank your lucky stars you got protection. Walk the line and never mind the cost. don't wonder who them lawmen was protectin', when they nailed the savior to the cross. www.thelettersfromleo.com/p/trumps-bor...

I mean this is the most church counselor way of putting it, but intelligence by itself is nearly worthless. wisdom and prudence and discernment are necessary qualities for intelligence to be useful. innumerable religious scriptures have tried to explain this but yr tech bros aren't big on books

A whole damn theology right here.

Using my carefully allotted six month post to day that The Summer Hikaru Died is a game of Monsterhearts.

Clergy friends, your moral voice matters so, so SO much in this moment. In the public square. Pushing your electeds. With congregants. At actions. Teaching the truths of your tradition & using the authority of your office. & calling in all that damn social capital. What ELSE is it FOR

today the fascists killed a nurse who did good work for the people in his care

People are being executed in the street over a problem that straight up does not exist and both parties are complicit in the lie

But 100 clergy members were arrested protesting ICE yesterday. The vast majority of the people arrested during the general strike were there in the name of their god or gods.

Driving away from Minneapolis today, with a heart both heavy and full. And I'm thinking about how the fascists claim to be fighting in the name of Christianity... They're making this big deal of a protest at a church. They're making these targeted arrests, claiming that anti-ICE is antireligious.

I’m so sick of people throwing their hands up and saying abolishing ICE isn’t possible right now. Abolishing ICE is extremely popular and calls to do so will only continue to grow, meanwhile conservatives manage to do incredibly unpopular things all the time because nobody stops them

Fixing your heart is, for us born into our arsenal of privilege in the world's most empire, both a lifelong undertaking requiring discipline, patience, perspective, and good teachers, and a necessary first step toward reclaiming your self. It's our essential duty and our most precious opportunity.

inescapable conclusion is we have no laws, just cops

We do not get out of fascism by saving ourselves and turning our backs on others. We get out through solidarity with everyone—especially the most vulnerable.

This is why those of us who live here keep telling you he cannot be our president. For every fun “anti-Trump post” there’s something like this.

The woman killed by ICE was Renee Nicole Good, a 37-year old who was the mother of a 4-year old child whose father already died a few years ago. The Star Tribune talked to her mother. www.startribune.com/she-was-an-a...

You should be embarrassed to be a member of congress and issuing anything other than impeachment resolutions. You're in the model UN. They should give you legos and a propeller hat

Extremely funny to call the pope “holier-than-thou”

NEW: I spoke to clergy and faith leaders who've joined protests at the Chicago-area ICE facility. Three say they've been shot with pepper balls, sometimes while praying. All say ICE is also violating their religious freedom, and one is arguing it in court. religionnews.com/2025/10/07/i...

it’s 2025 and full grown liberals are still writing “tRump” good. that’ll show him!

actually a lot of innocent people write birthday letters to child sex traffickers in which they repeatedly reference the secrets they share

At the DeSantis Everglades detention camp, people with green cards are being held in terrible conditions, with maggots in the food, the lights kept on 24 hours a day, and delayed access to medicine. One guy had his Bible taken and was told "here there is no right to religion."

people love saying to not freak out and do productive action instead but it will eventually catch up to us all psychologically that we need to grieve our stolen futures

God is not on any throne that's a metaphor He's God He doesn't need any throne if He is not completely sufficient in and to Himself without adornment then He's not God when you offer thanks & praise it's for your good not His He doesn't need anything it's axiomatic ok that's all go in peace

Zohran Mamdani is saying things like “poverty is a policy choice and politicians have a duty to their constituents to make their lives affordable” and it is making a lot of politicians very very scared that they may actually have to start doing some actual service in their public service jobs.

The road here was paved by the last few years of cultural persecution from the right and a cowardly abandonment by the Democratic establishment, who ignored so many warnings. Imperative that we loudly defend our trans siblings, and begin to organize together towards building safety and equality.

Posting this 1967 Birmingham News editorial cartoon for all the people who don't realize that this is how MLK was viewed by a big chunk of white America.

Here’s what the Trump admin has done in 100 days.... vs. What the Working Families Party has done 🧵

I'm so used to bar bathrooms with cutesy signs that I had to stop here and ask myself if I was a Mario or a Wario

Letter from a Palestinian Political Prisoner in Louisiana: Mahmoud Khalil

Can't believe that the US political party that was OK with capitulating to committing genocide is OK with capitulating to fascism, nobody could've seen this coming

Mr. Musk plans to layoff 83,000 workers at the VA. That means lower quality care for our vets. Unacceptable. I agree with the VFW: The VA must “reconsider its planned reduction of 83,000 employees & thoroughly review any proposed cuts prior to rolling out further announcements.”

they can take over the entire country but they can never actually be cool and it will eat at them forever

Drake is the all-time biggest loser of a rap feud and that includes people who have gotten shot and died as a result of rap feuds

As the expected Christian Nationalism EO came in, I’m seeing a bunch of “this isn’t real Christianity” noise in my mentions. Nope. Christian friends. 1/x 🧵 This is 💯 part of the history of Christianity, dating to Constantine, to the Holy Roman Empire, forced conversions, Inquisitions, +

Pete Hegseth isn’t DEI. Daniel Penny isn’t DEI. That’s not what DEI is. They’re just grossly unqualified for their jobs and add no value that any replacement legacy job applicant wouldn’t bring. So stop saying “it’s DEI” like it’s a clever commentary on the situation. It’s not.

Clackamas United Church of Christ in Oregon

remember stuff like this when they tell you that diversity means a lowering of standards

It's ok to use chatbots for everyday monotony like writing your wedding vows because this frees you up to use your creative energy for what truly matters: making powerpoints for work meetings

It may be a good time to recall that almost 100 yrs ago wealthy businessmen hatched a scheme to weaken progressive Christianity because the social gospel wasn’t conducive to corporate profits. They poured $$$ into Chr orgs that preached a different tune: the gospel of free market capitalism.

These emails, sent across agencies, compel all federal employees to snitch on any colleague whose work might have some vague DEIA inflection. Those who refuse to snitch will be disciplined. Seems designed to put all workers who aren’t white men under a cloud of suspicion. Truly vile stuff.

We failed to stop fascism's rise. Now it's dancing about on the White House lawn. I don't know how to fix all this but I do know that the shit we've been doing won't get us out of this one. shatterzone.substack.com/p/we-failed-...

Please God let this be true. Please God let the rebuilding begin. Please God let there be accountability & justice. Please God may everyone still alive be brought to safety & care. Please God may those with power now choose a more whole, more healed future for all the human beings in the region.

@silent0siris.bsky.social hey! I think at some point you were doing a fitd hack for West Marches gameplay? Do you have any docs related to that? Would be curious to read them in lieu of the release of Deep Cuts!
