I intend to use em-dashes as I always have in my #writing. I won't change anything about my creative process or grammar just because #AI is copying that grammar. The purpose of #art has always been about the process, the challenge, the effort. AI has nothing to offer me and nothing to take from me.

Bit of #OldTestament #wisdom this morning.
“When a foreigner resides among you in your land, do not mistreat them. The foreigner residing among you must be treated as your native-born. Love them as yourself, for you were foreigners in Egypt. I am the Lord your God.” Leviticus 19:33-34

#Writing and reading good #literature in times of terror is not escapism. It does take us outside of ourselves, but it helps us process our world and our neighbors in ways that fight fascism and despair.

I'm more and more convinced that "systematic theology" is approximately the furthest thing from intimacy with its subject.

I’ve always been a journaler, but #journaling has a new appeal for me lately in that it’s entirely private (unless physically stolen) and can't be scraped, crawled, or used to train #AI.

Could quote Rohr all day, but here's a good one: "True life always morphs into love, forgives everything for being that thing, and thus is much stronger than death."

Book culture is just #queer, and that’s one of the best things about it. Books and queerness go together like…anything that goes well together. It's also partly why books, authors, #libraries, and book sellers are being censured.
