Americans want universal healthcare, not a colony on Mars.

And don’t tell me it’s about “innovation.”

Making sure every American has housing, food, and healthcare is innovation, too.

Kudos to Gov. Janet Mills of Maine for standing up to Trump. He threatened loss of federal funds for her state simply because it allows trans girls to play in sports. She said, “See you in court.”

Trump is a weak, shallow, callous leader who wants desperately to be a despot. #BullyPolPot

It may not be cool or hip in some circles, but we legitimately do need a massive amount of people to run for office.

Flood the school boards, councils, county seats, state legislatures, Congress, etc.

Big changes at the top happen when the ground shifts at the bottom. And that can start now.

Good morning friends! Sending you all a big hug on this Friday morning. Today I will be trying to remember that even small acts of kindness and love matter—and to do a few.

I haven’t read the news for a week. I know it’s important to be informed of current events but my mental health needed a break from being bombarded with all the negative things that I am powerless to change.

My first months pay from a ministry feels really strange to me. It’s weird to be paid for doing something good in the world rather than for participating in the profit machine.

I just ordered three more books on ebay for part of my seminary research. Two of them were by Dr Letty Russel and one by Rev Dr William Barber. My book collection gets more interesting and varied with each semester.

If bread hatched out of eggs would you still eat it? That's my weird thought for the night. I should probably get some sleep.
