White supremacy has gone by many different names in the United States. Manifest Destiny. The Confederacy. Jim Crow. KKK. Christian nationalism. MAGA. Different names for the same thing: white nationalism, misogyny, and predatory capitalism. All while using Jesus as a mascot.

I don't WANT to preach this morning -- JD Vance is not a serious person, he lacks the intellectual chops to do this kind of work, so rewarding his thirst with response is undignified -- but the Spirit demands at least a brief bit of sermonizing

I know you hate this advice. I know you hear it all the time, but for gods sake you need to be calling your congressperson. Now. Today. If you have a GOP representative, you need to call and ask if they approve of stripping congress of its constitutional authority. If they like being powerless.

#StDistaffsDay (also k/as Rock or Roc Day) follows the Feast of the Epiphany (6th January). Traditionally, it was the day when women would return to their household chores after the Twelve Days of Christmas. The Distaff or Roc was used for spinning and symbolic of medieval women's work.
