I grew up in this church. Treating pedos as sinners instead of as mentally ill is exactly the problem. Ignoring the extremely high recidivism rate for pedos causes the problem to increase geometrically. They care more for $ than about protecting kids from predators.

This is my late-night companion, who will stay with me on the sofa all night as long as I keep thumping his flank and scratching his ears. And when I make my late-night evaluations of a new camera body before entering it into service, he just stares at me until I resume thumping.

Jimmy Carter's funeral is today. I thought I'd look at an important part of his legacy.

His anti-racism galvanized white evangelicals and revealed their ugly views decades before MAGA.

Evangelicals loved Jimmy Carter — until his anti-racism turned them against him

On this Transgender Day of Remembrance, I’m reminded that many in our various communities feel scared, fearful &/or vulnerable right now. I also know many don’t trust police & for good reason

Please screenshot or save these resources who are there to help & DO NOT involve police

You are not alone🫂

No. The 2nd amendment isn’t so private citizens could fight the government. That’s a right wing lie. It was for slave holding states to form militias against slave rebellions and defend slavery. — Historian Carol Anderson Uncovers The Racist Roots Of The 2nd Amendment

She climbed up and sat beside me, and immediately assumed her relaxed pose, and I did my favorite maneuver when I have a 24mm lens on, which is to hold the camera out front and just start pressing the shutter release, trusting autofocus and aiming by looking at the front of the lens.
