Mundus sine caesaribus.: A world without Caesars
I think my computer sticker says it all. "Never forget that Jesus was a brown-skinned healer, who empowered women, destroyed religious systems, loved the rejected, opposed our fascinations with power, and flipped the tables of oppression. His mission was neither lights, stages, nor influence."

Finished another page in my Mary Shelley cross-stitch. I’m in love. Pattern: MrsPeggottyArts Etsy. #booktok

Alleviating stress and celebrating the fact that Friday the 13th falls on Jason Voorhees’ birthday this year by marathoning my steelbooks while #knitting. If anyone could point me to a Mrs. Voorhees sweater pattern, that would be fabulous. #horrorsky #fridaythe13th

I need something more cheerful this weekend.

Rainy evening in Virginia, so I am spending it with an ARC set in this general area by the marvelous @maggiestiefvater.bsky.social. Apparently replete with dachshunds, my spirit animal! #booksky #amreading

One of my favorite photos from last year’s visit to the National Cathedral, taken in the crypt after I received communion. It looks like anticipation feels to me. It also looks like Tori Amos and @hozier.bsky.social sound, if that makes sense. The crypt felt like home; I wish I were there still.

The US Constitution has been removed from the White House website. @georgetakei.bsky.social

I also reported it myself. Calling for someone’s deportation because of something they said violates their constitutional rights and endangers them.

@aoc.bsky.social this needs to be reported to the Ethics Committee. A sitting Representative is calling for an American citizen to be deported in writing, because this person said something they didn’t like.

Take that, brain fog.

I just wrote a thread about how complicated the behavior and language is in the Neil Gaiman case, and how I know how that could happen first-hand bsky.app/profile/ther... so it is time to knit and decompress. Here is some eyebleach for your timeline: the ever-delightful Moo Deng.

Layers of snow, blue sky, and the mountains. And bird tracks. Goldfinches and cardinals everywhere—enjoying feeding them.

Stand up against what’s going on. That’s love. Remember Jesus didn’t just flip tables in the temple, he took the time to fashion a whip first. He also said “Did I stutter?” when he was challenged on this (John 8:43). 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️♿️ Exclusionary American theology is *dangerous*, and it isn’t Christianity.

Remembering President Carter as the first American president to celebrate Hanukkah at the White House. Representation and inclusion matter. A seat at the table is for everyone. Rest in peace and power, Mr. President.
