Yolanda Adams on homophobia in the Church
"Listen, I am 64 years old. I have seen everything in the church. And again, it has everything to do with the way you were nurtured. My family nurtured us to believe and know that everyone that gets to this earth got here because they are God's children. And why would you want to ever hurt anything that God loves? I have cousins, I have friends, I have dear, dear friends in and out of all music and arts and sports genres. And I never looked at them as anything other than beautiful people. And it is not my job ever to, to hurt anyone or debase anyone because of who they are. God is not surprised by anyone he created. He knew who you would be before your mom and dad got together. So, why am I disrespecting what God respects and loves?"
nearly a year and a half since Oct 7 and the same orgs are still calling for the same marches in the same locations with the same demands with nothing to show for any of it (other than lots of people getting sick, injured, arrested, and disillusioned)
this is counterinsurgency.
@loulovesbravo @BriMalandro Ofcourse! No problem at all— I love Mariah so I figured I’d break down this beautiful poetic piece of literature that is My All 😭 The lyrics become so much more potent when you realize this song is from her subconscious’ pov, she perfectly captures what “yearning” truly is 😭
@loulovesbravo @BriMalandro Emblazoned is in reference to his image being clearly “displayed” before her, rather than “ablazed.” This entire song is actually taking place in Mariah’s mind, so she’s alluding that the pain has “conspicuously inscribed” (google’s definition) his image into her mind.
The fact that every one of us who has publicly supported Luigi is now on a watchlist is hilarious. When millions of people are on your watchlist what kind of a watchlist is it really then? It’s just an everyone list. And then you start thinking about the patriot act. And then…
If you haven’t talked to someone under the age of 20 recently they’re literally all varying levels of illiterate and I’m not trying to make a joke here
The death of flash games and kid friendly social games like club penguin, mundo gaturro, petpet park etc was a huge contributor to kids migrating to social medias and introducing them to more online dangers. Literally the worst decision in the internet history imo
