When sending mutual aid, I hate that it costs $20 Canadian to send $10 US.

I help out where I can (mostly to people I know/trust), but the exchange rate sucks and the fees PayPal and other platforms charge is extortionate.

The woman who called churches to get formula and the discussion around it shows a deep misunderstanding of how church funds work. Should the church help the community? Obviously. Do most churches have funds and staff at the ready to get formula quickly? They don’t, actually.

The medical field characterizes us as “rigid thinkers” who are too naive to understand guile & too “sensitive” to injustice. They do mental gymnastics to frame our honesty, integrity, & a drive towards justice as deficits, rather than strengths. #Autistic

If our values are bad, we’ll still be bad people. But when our values are good, we have the potential to be powerful moral lodestones, advocates, & truth-tellers. #Autistic

#Autistic people tend to be earnest & honest, & to have strong integrity: we hold ourselves to our values. Many of us are deeply upset by anything that seems unjust. We aren’t all angels, but I do think most of us are genuinely trying to be decent, & that is a virtue of our neurotype.

As a Christian I am not called or committed to pretending my enemy is one iota less evil than they are. I am called and committed to loving my enemy in the fullness of their evilness and cruelty and I am called and committed to calling them to repent.

It was liberation theology priests in Latin America that let me let go of my anger at Christianity after my apostasy - that let me see that there were people who followed the example of the Christ I still respected, even if I did not call him God.

I'm always glad to see the tradition maintained.
Remember Rev. David Black, the Chicago pastor who was shot in the head with pepper balls? If you haven't heard him speak yet, listen to this.

To ICE: "You can repent"

On this day in 1946, Viola Desmond's car broke down in New Glasgow, NS. She went to a movie and sat in a Whites-Only area. Her refusal to move helped spark the modern Canadian civil rights movement.

The ground officially became snowy today and I've been stuck in a Christmas mood.

I want to save my mood until December.

Can we maybe not say that people we disagree with aren't humans? Since it's, you know, one of the things Nazis like to do?

I'm planning on reading a genre I don't read often and seeing if I enjoy the Bridgerton books.

I have been confronted with an ad for Advent calendars and so it is time for the annual PSA:

THE TWELVE DAYS OF CHRISTMAS BEGIN

ON

CHRISTMAS

THEY ARE NOT ANY OF THE DAYS LEADING UP TO CHRISTMAS

THAT IS ADVENT

WHICH BEGINS FOUR SUNDAYS BEFORE CHRISTMAS

THANK YOU FOR YOUR TIME

My MIL did this to me when she asked why people didn't like Mike Pence and I said he paid people to abuse children (which he did).
"That's so evil I don't believe you're telling me the truth" is such a specific problem with our electorate.
Recently my brother in law explained what gerrymandering was to a coworker and they didn’t believe him because if that were really happening there would be riots in the street

This week I had someone tell me they're not worried about SNAP being cut off because "that's illegal, so it's impossible Trump could do that, so obviously it's just media sensationalism." Another person told me they weren't worried about ICE because "they can't detain you if you're legally here."

“evil ages you.”

someone comments on every post about loomer or leavitt or kirk or whichever aged-faced young fascist is pictured. it doesn’t, though. money — which conservatives have in piles — affords health and, to some extent, youth. bad cosmetic treatments and heavy-handed fillers age you.

roald dahl was wrong. you cannot read the content of someone’s soul in the contours of their face. ugliness and beauty aren’t windows to morality. ugliness and beauty aren’t moral. neither are fillers or facelifts or boob jobs or baldness.

In all seriousness the casual use of “mentally ill” to mean “bad and destructive” is so lazy. “Mental illness” is a broad spectrum that includes people who are successfully managing their condition and those who are letting it run rampant. And even at our worst, we are all different!
