I'll probably do another one of these soon with more thought to it, but... hello, I'm Rae! You may already know me from another social. If not, my profile blurb says a lot about me in not-a-lot of words.
I'll probably end up posting here about churchy things, technology, sports, among other stuff.

They've spent weeks carefully building this Charlie Kirk hagiography and then Trump comes blundering in and knocks it down in seconds.
Trump on Charlie Kirk: "He was able to fight people that were enemies. And he didn't necessarily love those enemies so much. You know, I heard 'he loved his enemies' and I said, 'Wait a minute, is that the same Charlie that I knew? I'm not sure.' But I didn't want to get into it."

The Fourth of July is a great day to resist tyranny.
My protest sign today is going to draw on Isaiah 10:1: “Woe to those who make unjust laws.”
It’s too much for a sign, but the whole thing is an indictment of the current administration’s priorities.

I’d love for this insane post to generate 1/3 the coverage that Biden’s debate debacle generated.
Trump just reposted on TruthSocial that Joe Biden was executed in 2020 and was replaced by "clones, doubles, and robotic engineered soulless mindless entities."

I expect to write more on this in coming days, but for now let me suggest this: to find true freedom and joy, you don’t always need to change your beliefs as much as you just need to change your people.

Q: “Everyone gets due process. Right?”
TRUMP: “They get a process where we have to get them out.”
