I know Twitter is still an important place for a lot of people, and I'm keeping my main account to maintain some of those ties, but I'm deleting all my secondary accounts including this one.

Hi friends: with Musk's continued megalomaniac abuse of this platform, I'm going to be deleting this account. Please feel free to join me on Instagram at https://t.co/iofL9vaxM4 .

Trans rights are more important than cis people’s feelings.

[The Bible For Normal People's Opinions @theB4NP]

Adding "for $8/month" to the end of any sentence makes that sentence funnier, esp bible verses

[Josiah Hawthorne @JosiahHawthorne]

Them: *gasp* "You're going to let your kids celebrate the Devil's Holiday?"

Me: "I'm very conflicted about it. Part of me wants to shield them from all that bad, worldly influence. But every July they beg to go watch the fireworks, and I say yes."

Them: "...What?"

Me: "What?"

I deeply love being queer. That’s the tweet.

[Rev. Dr. Jacqui Lewis @RevJacquiLewis]

Woke up thinking, "What do you preach in a country teetering on the brink of collapse?"

Then, I remembered: The Bible was written in the throes of oppressive power, in the middle of collapse.

So we live the same message: Love your God. Love your neighbor. Love yourself. Period.

It’s the season of “I don’t do politics.”

Well baby, politics is going to do you, regardless.

So often trans people enter into a world where we experience joy, happiness, and beauty.

And very quickly we learn that in that same world, our lives and futures are at risk.

It’s this strange tension we all exist in. Basking in the beauty while trying to ward off the fear.

when i attended church, i would have traded all of the warrior-macho speak i was inundated with for one man to simply tell me that i was loved exactly as i was. 🥺

[The New Evangelicals @newvangelicals]

Jesus: love your enemies

Christian nationalists: ok, weak, effeminate soy boy.

Want to see the Spirit in action?

[Gillian Branstetter @GBBranstetter]

There is no amount of research that will suffice for the politicians banning gender-affirming care. They don't ban this care because it's untested or ineffective (which it isn't). They want to ban it because its purpose is keeping trans people alive and it works.

Over the last few days, I’ve been told the “Gospel” is…

- penal substitutionary atonement
- eternal conscious torment
- traditional sexual ethics

So what else is the Gospel?

“God is bigger than the 66 books we confine them to.” I was so blessed by your conversation with Rev. Shanae Leonard @brooke_scott95

“You can believe a couple eating forbidden fruit is the cause of all suffering today, but can’t believe the actions of your ancestors in just the last century has any lasting effects?” - Andre Henry

[Thomas Horrocks @thomaslhorrocks]

In fact Christ explicitly told us the criteria by which he’ll judge the nations.

Do they:
- Feed the hungry
- Welcome the stranger
- Clothe the naked
- Care for the sick
- Visit the prisoner
