Okies, Sen. James Lankford has joined a group of GOP senators in an attempt to interfere with the results of a lawful election. This is a violation of his oath to support and defend the Constitution. Please sign this petition demanding he resigns.

I get it:
Making Trump solely responsible for the Battle of Bunker Hilbillies is a more salacious story.

But if your narrative doesn’t include that this is MOSTLY a backlash against Black votes, you’re not getting the story right:

I’ve been getting a lot of questions from my non-Black friends about how to be a better ally to Black people. I suggest unlearning and relearning through literature as just one good jumping off point, and have broken up my anti-racist reading list into sections:

[Jason Dunnington @jdunnington]

For weeks #okleg leadership & our Gov have been posturing & leveling insults through the media at each other. Meanwhile thousands of our neighbors, our families, our friends, are going without the help they need everyday. This is why we all get to vote, this is why it matters.

[(((Becky Ibtrdia))) @SauronTheQueen]

@XianJaneway Sounds likely.

I get it. It's not migraines but I do have negative physical reactions to Splenda/sucralose.

[Austin Channing Brown @austinchanning]

Y’all. I’m not saying this to be harsh. I just want to make sure those who are antiracist really understand... I get that #AhmaudArbery was doing what lots of people do and therefore his murder still isn’t justified. BUT.

The President is tested every day.

Every single person he comes into contact with is also tested.

If anyone tests positive, they are immediately quarantined and their contacts are tested.

See? He DOES understand how to stop the virus. He just doesn't give a shit about YOU.

@hbicofyourass Love it!

[(((Becky Ibtrdia))) @SauronTheQueen]

@XianJaneway @jfouse @MattDrapps @JustinBezanson I'll check with Nicole tomorrow night when we're meeting to check on our upcoming availability.

[(((Becky Ibtrdia))) @SauronTheQueen]

@KaitlinCurtice Definitely shaping up to be horrible. I've felt some of it already and will undoubtedly feel more in the upcoming days and weeks.

Pets should never die.

[(((Becky Ibtrdia))) @SauronTheQueen]

@XianJaneway @jfouse @MattDrapps @JustinBezanson Do you mean an episode or a full-on new podcast?

The first: Yes, absolutely. How soon?

The second: Yes, if and only if I do not have to edit/social media/book guests/etc.

[(((Becky Ibtrdia))) @SauronTheQueen]

@alphaknight @XianJaneway @TwistedSisterds Thank you so much! It's wonderful to meet you, too @alphaknight !

[(((Becky Ibtrdia))) @SauronTheQueen]

@XianJaneway BINGO! 😁

[(((Becky Ibtrdia))) @SauronTheQueen]

@XianJaneway @alphaknight One of us! One of us!

[(((Becky Ibtrdia))) @SauronTheQueen]

@alphaknight @XianJaneway Solidarity! The struggle is real for Exvangelical ex-Republicans in Okieland.

[Jamie Lee Finch @jamieleefinch]

Maybe you, like me, are noticing an incredible resistance within yourself to creating new work right now or restructuring the work you had previously created for the way you were expecting this year to go.

Yeah, that’s grief. Be gentle. Give it time.

[(((Becky Ibtrdia))) @SauronTheQueen]

@knowles_tk @jamieleefinch Same, friend!

[(((Becky Ibtrdia))) @SauronTheQueen]

@brchastain @exvangelicalpod This is who just did our rebrand (which I'm not rolling out until later this week).

Trauma life hack:

When you start speaking unkindly to yourself, say out loud, “this is hard because this is hard.”

Not because you aren’t enough or aren’t handling it well or any other reason... no, it’s hard because it’s hard.
