got my abcessed tooth removed finally

also gotta give a shout out to SAINT Julian of Norwich who I asked to pray for Blue to return to us because I know she loves kitties

All thanks and praise to God! thanks for praying for my boy Blue! thank you to saint francis for interceeding! I was about to sleep and felt this urgency to go look outside one last time, only to see him walking across the street toward our house. Thank you Jesus! Blue is home safe! 🕯

My cat Blue snuck out when we didnt notice and has been missing for over 2 hours. Please pray for my baby boy to come back home. 🕯

Dale is only 8 years older than me but somehow looks old enough to be my father. I guess bigotry really ages you.

Its a good day to go to church, #touchpews seek the intercession of the theotokos, and worship the living God 🕯

Ive been refraining from talking about Platner because I dont live in Maine. I also just havent followed his stuff as much as a lot of others. This will likely be the only thing I'll say: I agree with a lot of Platner's stated platform. I also believe in redemption. But I also have real concerns.

Absolutely wild how few politicians understand *and are willing to channel* Minnesotans' anger about ICE. Should be pretty fucking obvious by now! Match our energy!

rest in peace anthony head

I don't really talk about this, because I'm actually quite private about my personal life, but many many years ago Tony Head took me under his wing and showed me the kind of person I could be. It's not an exaggeration to say that I'm the person I am today because of the kindness he showed me.

Toronto police turned a stop-sign blitz on Queens Quay into a violent cyclist takedown, exposing how aggressively vulnerable road users are policed while the far greater harms of cars, dangerous roads, and driver violence are normalized. sparksolidarity.ca/2026/06/04/t...

Please pray for my family for private reasons. 🕯

Post an album (I'm gonna post 4) you've listened to over 100 times:

ICE vehicles have been seen this morning in the Corcoran and Powderhorn neighborhoods/ South Minneapolis. It would be great to get extra support from community today. Please help out in your local area. 1/

Even when Stancil agrees with people, he is compelled to disparage them for holding the right views for the wrong reasons.

I’m at the centrist Dems rally and we’re all chanting our winning message: “actually our economic system is perfect and if you don’t feel like you’re benefiting from it that’s a you problem”

Last night, the Supreme Court ruled that the VRA cannot protect even against *intentionally* discriminatory voting policies When we say there is no federal statute remaining the enforce the 15th Amendment, this is what we mean

"We want the government to crack down on this thing that no one can define" is a recipe for a right-wing power grab and a raft of moral-panic legislation.

Funny how these “free speech” types like Bari Weiss always draw the boundaries of open debate at criticizing them, specifically

crazy that under the precedent set by callais, a lily-white congressional delegation formed by "partisan" gerrymandering in a plurality black state passes constitutional muster, while any majority-minority district is constitutionally suspect

angie craig just refused to be onstage with peggy flanagan last weekend by dropping out of the DFL endorsement process rather than participating even amy klobuchar faced her opponent kobey layne last weekend for a Q&A! flanagan is not hiding, she was ready. craig is the one who quit

Welp, I tried to explain to my dad why he hurt my feelings and he gave me a nothing response not acknowledging anything I said. And its at this point I think its best to just move on. I'll always love him. But I cant keep extending olive branches. I do hope some day he will love me back.

my dad just becomes whatever is around him. raised a lutheran, converted catholic to marry mom, became an evangelical when he was in an evangelical homeless shelter, now a mormon it seems. sometimes I wonder if I ever will know the real him, if I ever did at all

mormons really are good at hooking in vulnerable and naive people. shout out to my dad converting to mormonism and sending me anti-gay mormon propaganda as the first time he has spoken to me in a year and a half lmao

When I was nominated to be grand marshall of the Fargo-Moorhead Pride parade. my mom started calling me "the king of the gays" and she posted every June 1st on facebook in support of me. It's been bittersweet the last two June 1sts to get that notification of a memory with her. BUT

Happy Pride Month to all my fellow LGBTQ people! You're beautiful, wonderful people! The world is better with you in it, and God made you to love and be loved! Love cannot be erased, no matter how hard hate wished it could. Love always wins!

www.jfklibrary.org/events-and-a... The people in our cities really deserve honor and respect. I am grateful to be a member of this community who does my small part. All of us doing our small part makes a big difference. Still, work continues to need to be done. and our terrorisers continue their

The People of the Twin Cities*

Tonight, the people of the Twin Cities were awarded the prestigious 2026 JFK Profile in Courage Award! Our neighbors were recognized for risking their lives to protect our neighbors and immigrant community members. 1/

These tactics were refined here in #Minneapolis #StPaul first during #RNC in 2008 then after #GeorgeFloyd #Uprising. Exact same treatment of reporters, Photojournalists, separate them from protesters, target cameras.

Tonight, the People of Minneapolis are being awarded the Profile in Courage Award—and there can be no doubt that they are deserving. At the same time, the people of New Jersey are fighting the same fight at Delaney Hall. We stand strong with New Jersey.

Developing a new drinking game: drink a beer every time you read a lutheran reformer calling people stupid the germans would approve

Barely into Loci Communes by Melanchthon & he's so me at 24 haha A zealous prick about what he believes. The audacity to be like "Origen & John of Damascus are stupid & their writings are worthless. This is also true of many early writings. And basically all commentaries. Just read the Bible." 🕯

Leaving the cathedral this morning nourished by the eucharist, also with The Problem of Pain by CS Lewis and a book of writings from Melanchthon and Bucer from the library, as well as a Booklet of Common Prayer & an icon of St George from the book shop. Never let them guess your next move. ⚓️

There’s that whole conservative thing about "not having arguments with someone who can’t even define a ‘woman.’" I think the obvious response ought to be that I’m not willing to debate with people who can’t even correctly identify a human.

"Blessed are the ears that have not heard you and the hearts that have been kept from the wounds of your words." St Basil the Great writing great emo lyrics in On the Holy Spirit 🕯

Should I give this masterpiece to my bishop? My boss said if he doesnt think its religious enough to tell him "its just a bit of mind over miter" ⚓️

Just a reminder for yall who work office jobs: nearly every warehouse I ever worked in, including the current one, doesnt have AC. Its hot as hell in the summer, so thank the Lord if you get to work in AC and be patient with the workers who dont and spend out days sweating

I am once again asking Episcopal Church leaders to understand that what the church does with money does more to communicate our true values than literally anything they say If you say you value human dignity but you’re paying less than a living wage, you are lying to God and to God’s children.

My stepdad said that ever since my mom passed away, their dog Lucy and cat Sugar always sleep in mom's old walk in closet because it smells the most like mom. To this day, if he is ever looking for them, he finds them buried behind a bunch of clothes hanging in the closet, cuddled together.

Donald Trump is mentioned in the unredacted Epstein files a million times. We have only seen about 38,000 of those mentions. Think about that. They are withholding or redacting almost a million references to him.

St Basil the Great wants to join in on the endless CWOB debate. ⚓️ (SPOILER: he says no) "Israel was baptized in Moses in the cloud, and in the sea, presenting therein types for thy instruction, and sensibly exhibiting the truth which was to be shown in the latter days: and thou shunnest baptism,

One day I will be a preacher, probably even as soon as January! Anyway, what if I just preach the exortation to baptism by st basil the great any time I get to preach on a baptism day lol ⚓️

"The wise Solomon, distinguishing the times for the various affairs of life, and assigning to each one what is suitable, said: “There is a time for all, and a time for every thing; a time to be born, and a time to die.” But, making a slight change in the sentence of the wise man,
