New:

Why practices to connect us with our own humanity, each other, & perhaps something bigger, really matter now—

And can help keep us more whole, less responding on their terms & more on our own, more making choices as the people we wish to be.

I've seen some poo poohing on calling govt reps.

Listen. Most of these chucklefucks are not true believers in anything but their own enrichment

And they care about that job.

It cannot be the only thing we do, but it is not a useless thing, at all.

People who take the time to call and bitch?

The word "systemic" is on the banned list, so if I study systemic inflammation & health, flagged. If I study political science, flagged. If I study trauma, flagged. Keep in mind that the largest mental health provider in the country is the Veteran's Administration, but we can't study trauma now?

U.S. citizens detained by ICE call a civil rights attorney. Non citizens call an immigration attorney.

A difference of opinion is which beer or country is better. A difference of values is whether one human has more value and right to exist with dignity.
I don't end relationships over differences of opinion. I do choose to not surround myself with those whose values do not match mine.

The real trap here is that the Republicans have made defending civil rights seem like a frivolous thing and a whole lot of liberals are falling in line. Even if it was a culture war, so what? This would be a war worth fighting. What are we even doing here, people? Get it together.

Except of course it was never "gay people" or "drag queens" or "trans people," or whoevertheeff just trying to live their lives, it was child abusers who held and maintained their power in the community, the people who had always been doing those horrors. Except now we insist on naming them.

This is why I do a whole class session on the evolution of monotheism in the HB, giving them passages to ID as mono, heno and polytheistic pretty early on (in my Intro to Interpreting the HB in Context).
Christians are really good at ignoring that there are a lot of gods in the Old Testament, and that a lot of the “truest believers” did reprehensible, brainwashed shit that shouldn’t in any way be held up as virtue. The apologetic renegotiation of the texts is maddening.
