Who do I think I am?
I’m a former conservative, evangelical, Republican. I was one for most of my Christian life (40+ years). No more. I wouldn’t even say [...]

For Bluesky audiences. Although the only thing I need to change is where I used to always say "we" when critiquing the church. There is something out there calling itself "Christian" & "Church" I am not sure what it is. I am not that. At all. I know them, though.

Does anyone else out there play guitar with some neuropothy that affects their third and fourth fingers on the fretting hand?
I mostly stopped playing after that, but I noticed two things recently—I miss playing and my grip strength is declining. So I've decided to PU my guitar and play again.

I agree with the people saying the military does not need to follow an illeagal order. But that current video has that "Have you stopped beating your wife?" vibe.

The "I" in IDEA is dropped by a lot of ppl because it still implies a hierarchy, someone has the power to "include" the other. Belonging is the new buzz word, maybe in response or as an outcropping in search of a way to provide a wholistic view. Some have shifted from 'calling out' to 'calling in'.

Finished All Her Fault. Awesome. It’s not often I can’t figure out a plot of a movie or series early on. (Drives my wife nuts.) This one kept me guessing wrong the whole until the last episode. I’ll give them that because they’re wrapping things up.

So, I guess the rest of Trump’s term is watching him spiral and his administration making excuses. Now can we elect someone younger than 60?
