The brilliance of this cartoon. Most notably that the “heaven cloud” doesn’t encompass all individuals…

When I was a younger man and still in Christianity, I would pray to god and ask him to make me blind. I did this because I felt so ashamed of myself for looking at porn or girls. I thought blindness might fix it and make me holy. Christianity is abuse. #church #jesus #exvangelical

Happy Sunday, friends. May you rest well in the fact that you do not need to be saved from anything and that there is nothing inherently wrong with you. You are beautiful as you are. Live your life in peace. 💙 #exvangelical #church #jesus #christian #atheist

Maybe it’s time for Gundy to go? #OSUvOREGON

A Sunday Night Affirmation: You are GOOD without god. You are beautiful as you are. You’re not a sinner going to hell. Nobody has to die for you. Your value comes from you alone. #Exmo #Deconstruction #Exvangelical

Hell hath no fury like a 12-year-old daughter with screen time limits. 😵‍💫 #parenting #daughters #help

I’ve been at the beach all week. Every day I get up to see this. Great day or shitty day. The sun rises. Joy or grief. The sun rises. Gain or loss. The sun rises. Acceptance or rejection. The sun rises. No matter what — the sun rises.

Hello, friends. I’ve been away awhile. As much as I hate it to admit it, I relapsed. As of yesterday, I’m four months sober. My story isn’t unique. Most of us in recovery have experienced it. And we all hated it. But I’m glad to be on this side of it. Love you all. Glad to be reengaging here.

Thunder the hell up. Not sure we’ve had a sweeter win this year. #OKC

If you hold to traditional Christian values and support trump at the same time, I will not take you seriously in anything you say.

Anyone think Zelenskyy planned it? Like he never had any intention of giving up those mineral rights. He wanted to walk into Trump’s office, say fuck you, and walk out. And that’s what he did.

In a world of trumps, be a Zelenskyy.

Our president is everything I teach my kids NOT to become.

A measles outbreak is what happens when people believe conspiracy theories and decide not to vaccinate their children. And now children are literally dying because of the willful ignorance of adults. If you don’t protect your kids, you don’t deserve them.

I’m drinking coffee and watching the news. My 8-year-old son comes out, hugs me, watches for a second, and says: “I feel like it was a bad idea that people let Trump come back to be president.” EIGHT YEARS OLD. He gets it. Grown adults can’t? PS — I don’t talk to my kids about this stuff.

I feel like no matter how much I try to live a balanced life, my mind and emotions are always in the extremes. Either sheer bliss and peace, or sleepless nights with the darkest thoughts. I really need this funk to pass.

I can’t believe I’m feeling this way, but I’m starting to wonder if moving to blue Colorado is going to be enough to provide my kids with a positive future.

And it’s a choice many people gladly make with incredible arrogance.

Your Sunday reminder: ✅ You’re not a sinner. ✅ You’re not broken. ✅ You don’t need to be saved. ✅ Christianity depends on the threat of hell. ✅ There is no evidence for god. ✅ You’re lovely, beautiful, wonderful, and good because of you who are. No god required. Live in freedom, friends! 🤟🏼

Happy Saturday, my friends. Breathe in. Breathe out. Take the day away from news and negativity. Do something that makes you smile today. Rest well.

People I’m not giving time or effort to: • Those who cancel on me at the last minute • Those who can’t control their emotions • Those who can’t challenge their own thoughts • Those who don’t put effort into the relationship • People who think in black and white I know my worth.

It is time. #CigarSky

I think office culture could learn a lot from the way hockey players handle disagreements.

He’s not a king. He’ll never be a king.

A person who doesn’t care anymore was once a person who cared far too much.

I’m pretty sure someone once said “good enough” is the enemy of excellence. I absolutely hate dealing with the “good enough” mentality. Give it your best or get out of the way.

Happy Sunday, #BlueSky! Your weekly reminder: • You weren’t born a sinner. • No one needs to die to make you a good person. • Hell is a man-made concept designed to scare you. • You are good and beautiful exactly as you are right now • Your worth comes from YOU, not a god or anything else. 🤟🏼

I’m sitting here listening to a young couple discuss all the “assets and liabilities” of a potential marriage. They think they can plan this shit out. Like guys… You don’t have the first damn clue.

No. 9 at the lounge on this cold and snowy Saturday. #CigarSky

🎶 In Christ alone, my *anxiety, self-doubt, feelings of worthlessness, homophobia, transphobia, xenophobia, misogyny, insecurity, depression, shallow thinking, self-righteousness, self-loathing, stress, fear, unrest, endless toiling, hiding, lying, regret, anger, gullibility* is found. 🎶

When I was in church, everyone said I would only find peace with Jesus. Only Jesus could heal my depression, calm my anxiety and comfort me. Let me tell you … none of that is true. I have found real peace, joy and freedom BECAUSE I left Jesus and the church. All my hope is found without Christ.

😆😆😆😆😆

I have a child who does whatever he can to make sure it’s never his fault when something bad happens. No matter how obvious his involvement or guilt may be, someone else is responsible. I have a president who does the same thing.

This is what happens when you let conspiracy theories about big pharma and greedy primary care physicians convince you that vaccines are bad.

I’m trying so hard to learn just the basics of web development. All I’ve ever worked with is SquareSpace. I’m trying to build a new site in WordPress, and let me tell you … it has me feeling like an absolutely abject failure.

Hate me. Unfollow if you want. But… Killing Brian Thompson did *nothing* but leave a family without a dad. So for all the cheering for the murder and hollering about the needed change in health care (which has been pretty quiet lately), what did you get? Violence doesn’t work.

Apple Maps still has it right…

It is so important to think ahead. And when you’re failing, it’s important to be humble enough to start over and do it right … no matter how painful.

She literally shook it off. 😜 However, this is an interesting take considering she recently filled 51 stadiums to capacity 149 times while he had to move his last gig inside. 🤷🏻‍♂️ Or, here’s another idea... just stop being a petty person!

Hearing Sirianni and Hurts praise god for their victory last night is so sad to me. Like no dudes … YOU did that!! Don’t give away the credit you rightfully deserve. But also, if god exists and he’s helping you win games while letting kids in Gaza die … well, that’s whole other issue. #SuperBowl

End electoral DEI

Wokest Superbowl ever. Gaga, NOLA culture, Trombone Shorty, Terrance Blanchard, … two Black quarterbacks and Kendrick Lamar, plus my line sister @ledisi.bsky.social singing the Black National Anthem. This is actually amazing and I love it ❤️

The Swifties in my house are absolutely wrecked right now. Like … BAWLING. Sad … and kinda funny. But sad. Switching into Dad mode now…

I thought trump didn’t pick losers. #GoBirds

Happy Sunday, #BlueSky! Your weekly reminder: 🙂‍↔️ You’re not a sinner 🙂‍↔️ There is no hell 🙂‍↔️ Nobody needs to die for you ✅ You’re a good and beautiful person ✅ You are valuable and precious ✅ You are wonderful and worthy of love exactly the way you are. No god required. Go live in freedom! 🫶🏼

People from every political ideology have something in common: If they see a post that either supports their views or makes their opponents look bad, they will share it. No research. No verification. No citation. Being disingenuous and/or ignorant is easy. Do the hard thing. Seek truth.

Happy Saturday my friends! Grab a cup of coffee and take a break from the insanity of the week. Your mental health matters! I challenge you to watch a show or movie that makes you feel good today. Fill your tank a bit! 🤟🏼

I need to get out of this state. #Oklahoma

Dude tried to boycott the NFL in his first term. Now he’s going to the Super Bowl. Roger Goodell should stop this, but he won’t.
