Who the social media algorithms think I am…
#Facebook: wealthy designer looking for DIY ideas
#Twitter: Trump-hater, but psychological
#Instagram: traveling influencer capitalizing via stocks
#TikTok: depressed #eXvangelical who just needs to cry it all out in solitude
(To be clear, I’m not denying Christianity. I’ve just stopped feeling the need to prove to sooooo many in my former Evangelical circles who claim I’m not a Christian that I actually am. I’m also much more comfortable nowadays admitting when I don’t know something 🤷)
Sooo many people on my feeds lately:
“If you’re not Christian, you don’t get to tell me I’m wrong about my faith.”
Funny, because… when I was Christian, using the same scriptures to say exactly what I’m saying now, you didn’t listen to me then either. 🤔
Am I part of the Tennessee you’re promising to protect?
Or am I part of what you’re protecting it from?
I hope you’ll reconsider language that tells lifelong Tennesseans they don’t belong simply because they’re transgender.
@RepJohnRose I was born in Tennessee, and I am transgender.
Your commercial says Starbucks supports “weird transgender stuff.”
I need you to understand what that sounds like from this side.
It doesn’t sound like you’re criticizing a corporation.
It sounds like you’re describing people like me as weird.
Then you say, “If you come to Tennessee, you’ve got to become Tennessee.”
I didn’t come to Tennessee.
Tennessee is the only home I’ve ever known.
So where exactly do I fit into your vision?
Why are the same people who’ve been telling me my whole life that I’m “not a real man, because real men do XYZ…”
suddenly soooooo upset when I finally admit that, “Hey, you’re right! I’m not a real man. I’m nonbinary!”?

Despite what some think, Pr*de has never been about destroying families. Most queer people I know simply want the chance to build one.
This month, may you all find the family you need, whether through biology, adoption, marriage, friendship, or choice. 🫂
Family is crucial. ❤️
It's the first #NuclearFamilyMonth in #Tennessee, so
Happy NFM to all the nuclear families out there!
Especially the queer ones!
Because it's harder to be a queer nuclear family in Tennessee than a hetero one…just ask any of the queer people you love who’ve ever lived here!
That's one reason June has long carried another observance title as well, Pr*de Month. 😅
As June begins, it's worth asking: which movement is fighting for more people to have the freedom to build loving families, and which movement is working to limit who gets that opportunity?
Pleeeease @euphoriaHBO further explore how people use religion/spirituality to medicate + find euphoric enlightenment. You did it with drugs/money/sex, and you’ve skimmed the tip of the iceberg with faith already. This is a gold mine of relevant theming + exploration! #euphoria
@harryjsisson I mean, falling asleep during a very high demanding job is very low on a list of why someone’s unqualified, right? Like, page 312 at least.

30 for Reagan.
