Remember, trying to make sense of what makes fascism so appealing will make you feel like you’re losing your mind because it doesn’t operate on anything logical.
It is based on grievance, vengeance, cruelty, and control.
It refuses to be reasoned with.
This is a first for me and all @wastatepatrol troopers involved. 4 Zebras that were being transported got loose when the driver stopped to secure the trailer EB 90 to exit 32. The community has come together to help. One cornered, 3 outstanding. Crazy!!
@Angie789@thepursuinglife - a few were quietly supportive but so many judged this poor woman who gave her all to volunteering & keeping her kiddos involved in church life. Decades later how many of those folks have experienced their own divorces w/o the shame of the church. No apologies to past “sinners”.
@Angie789@thepursuinglife The way our church and other Christian folks’ (in a small community) reactions to my parents divorcing…. So painful for my mother and three young kiddos. My father had an affair and left our church because he couldn’t be in the same space as my mother …
Please do not go to take health advice from mega pastors who can’t go one sermon without taking scriptures out of context to manipulate & shame you. (The worst will even use psychological language to pretend to be on the side of mental health only to immediately gas light you)
The kitchen is about so much more than just food. The Just Kitchen invites us to reprioritize the kitchen as a space for healing, community, activism, and celebration.

When women express pain, they are often perceived to be overestimating their symptoms or over-reacting (and being hysterical). As I discuss in Hysterical, ultimately it is rooted in the long history of medical misogyny, of hysteria, where most illnesses in women are seen to be 'of the mind' or psychosomatic, due to their nervous nature.
Yesterday, I watched a tiktok connecting the Hierarchy of needs to capitalism, & absolutely facepalmed over never making this SIMPLE connection before.
I could never be the kind of mother or wife I want to be, if I'm having to constantly earn money or fix things or find things,
Yes, there are women in ministry.
However, it's still a sad reality that the path is more difficult for women.
When men inform me they want to be a pastor, no problem. Go for it!
When women do, they know they need to prepare themselves for extra hardships.
Tell me I'm wrong.
