Highlighting good work of a lot of churches is always a trick bag because the bad churches have the megaphones, but the good work is happening in the background. And it is supposed to be that way. It’s supposed to be quiet.
The moment you start doing a press run for good deeds, it gets shaky.

"turn your hobby into your job, so you'll enjoy work" is the just utter BS, in my experience having your wellbeing dependent on your hobby will make you resent it and ruin it for you

A guide for not being annoying online:
1. If something is clearly a joke, don't leave an angry reply
2. If you're not sure whether something is a joke, don't leave an angry reply
3. If you don't have the ability to identify jokes, don't leave an angry reply
Hope this helps!

Dyslexia, dyscalculia, dysgraphia and dyspraxia are the most ignored disorders when it comes to activism.
Because typos are funny, being bad at maths is mocked, messy handwriting is lazy, and being clumsy is on purpose.

Can we focus more on how victims of sexual violence continue to be failed today and less on the drama of the Royal Family? Then perhaps some good might come from this?

Christian nationalism has NOTHING to do with the Bible and the teachings of Jesus. It's racism, bigotry, and misogyny wrapped in a very thin veneer of religiosity to give it some moral authority.

my vet: "there's a little girl who got spayed back there, too, but she's not so dramatic. it's always the boys."

there are times when you need to recognize that your own bad brain demons are making you want to be combative with people and you just need to shut the fuck up
it is, as a person with depression, an important life skill!

When we talk about autism, we need to talk about race and gender, too. Black autistic women are often unseen masked out of recognition. Let’s make visibility gentle, not forced 👌🏽
