Can you guys help me figure out how many genders there are? lewiscam.github.io/choose-your-...

I don't think I "pass" in the sense we often use that word pretty much ever, but I also almost never get misgendered out and about in the world anymore and I think that's what counts

Blessed feast of St. Euphrosyne/Smaragdus of Alexandria Merciful God, who looks not with outward eyes but discerns the heart of each: we confess that those whom we love the most are often strangers to us.

I love being God's little transsexual daughter

Religious trauma is a motherfucker

Somebody save me from hell

I know it’s been said, but banning trans healthcare for children is an astonishingly brazen case of society creating the *precise* negative outcome that it claims to be curtailing (irreversible physical and emotional harm inflicted on innocents for the sake of an erroneous ideology)

But Cameron, why are you singing in the pride choir AND volunteering at the church table when you're not episcopalian? Listen, I am that desperate to figure out where the trans people and queer families go to church

Pride here is in September and I think the combo of singing at pride Eucharist and working tables for both the episcopal diocese and the trans youth org is gonna completely overwhelm me

Very annoyed that racing through the gay book club book that I don't care about last minute is distracting me from reading the book I'm obsessed with

It's the scientific community's duty to fight misinformation, bioessentialism, and eugenics That's why we're launching Beyond X&Y, an educational campaign combating the rise of unscientific political propaganda used to attack trans and intersex people Subscribe to our newsletter at beyondxandy.org

If you live in a red state, today would be a very funny day to formally protest if your library, or school library, carries the Left Behind books

As America's most pro-business leader in a generation, I will choose one company each week and accuse them of witchcraft

At the point my whole predictive mechanism for who will resist fascism and who will capitulate to or support fascism is "have they demonstrated integrity in their life and public presence".

I like being autistic. One of my favorite things about myself. Right up there with having albinism and being a transsexual lesbian mom

idk I'm kinda just thinking over here but if has been able to tell my parents I was trans at 12, get on puberty blockers by 13 or so, figure my stuff out, and maybe start hrt at 16 or so, Anthem would've saved about $200-300k on medical care for me

Did a thing I never imagined I'd do today; I got a tattoo. Amy and I did a matching set and it is very gay. Let me tell you about it 🧵

Did Snyder ever take out the part in On Tyranny where he suggested reading Harry Potter as antiauthoritarian lit or?

Great thread, but this is peak. If you want to enjoy cooking regularly, you can't sustain it by reading recipes. You need to see a pile of ingredients and know how to build something you'll like

Made li hing mui spiced sous vide ribs and reminded myself that I can be really good at cooking when I put in some effort

Average experience showing a chart of made up numbers to an executive

None of the people who want me institutionalized or eradicated has or will ever experience 1/10 the euphoria I get to feel, putting on a cute skirt and looking like the gayest gay to ever gay, holding my lover's hand, stimming my little heart out, and bawling to one of my favorite artists

Going to see Lucy Dacus tonight and I'm gonna cry so much

All the same disclaimers apply as always but I do really need to, for my own sanity, start working on ways I can pull money out of corporate revenue streams

I love when I'm talking to people about the act of Paul and Thecla and I get to ask them if they've read the AO3 fanfic about Paul being a gender studies professor and when they inevitably say "What are you talking about?" I get to drop this gem on them.

Blessed feast of St. Hildegard of Bingen God of all times and seasons: Give us grace that we, after the example of your servant Hildegard, may both know and make known the joy and jubilation of being part of your creation, and show forth your glory in the world;

I dunno what got me to pick this up but like, I think this is what the young men need. This was something very much missing from my ostensibly religious upbringing and what I was taught it was to grow up and try to become a good Christian man

Oh no. I talked about Aristotle at work. Throw me in jail

Officially in my tinned fish girl era

Wonder what my Mormon dad could have meant by this

I should probably start logging off on Sundays so I don't do my perpetual "why the fuck did I go to church today? Now I'm miserable."

Blessed feast of the Universal Exaltation of the Precious and Life-Giving Cross Almighty God, whose Son our Savior Jesus Christ was lifted high upon the cross that he might draw the whole world to himself: 1/2

Episcopalians, explain why the Kyrie/trisagion is optional in the rite II Eucharist. I've never known why

Where my "homer is next to scripture" girls at?

Right this second, I rhi everyone should pick up Perfect Victims by Mohammed El-Kurd But more broadly, I think more people should read Under the Net by Iris Murdoch

"So deride liars who throw rocks and hide their hands; deride manipulators who exploit taboos and tragedies to maintain a monopoly on violence, who craft their words to extract an urgent, penitent reverence out of you." -Mohammed El-Kurd

We must not wait for Haaretz or the New York Times to arrive at the miraculous epiphanies we have long called common truths. We should purge their prestige in our minds, the prestige that renders a Times acknowledgment of an eyewitness account more valuable than the account itself. -Mohammed El-Kurd

"cowering before a charge will often bring us closer to it, especially when our accusers hold their accusations to be self-evident." -Mohammed El-Kurd

You can hate the sin and love the sinner, but you do actually have to hate the sin. You can't write an article about how we should honor the sinner's memory by sinning like him

I know it's my internalized transphobia speaking but all my vices feel distinctly masculine to me and all my virtues feel feminine

It's simple. They see themselves in him. They do not see themselves in his targets.

Being trans is great, but it would nicer during a time when my mere existence is not a form of protest

Kinda wish I didn't feel completely compelled toward Christianity. I kinda wish I could just set it aside and feel okay about that. I cannot though.

Read Adele a kids version of Jason and the Argonauts tonight and she was more enamored with Medea than I was comfortable with "Mom did they ever have kids together?" 💀💀

HAPPY MARYMAS!!!!

The office is obvs is not exclusive to Anglicans nor their special charism but the accessibility of the office for laity—how simple it is for every Christian to ground themself in the daily flow of the church's prayer, is by far the most astounding thing unique to this tradition
