Love is a far harder burden the bear.

Benny thinks Jesus would welcome all the children of God; migrant, LGBTQ+, or poor, Jesus' heart seemed to always go out to those on the margins and Benny encourages us to do likewise.

The battle of our day is no longer about Democrats versus Republicans or left versus right.

The choice right now is democracy or dictatorship. And we're sliding faster than I ever thought possible into the latter.

Everyone must choose which side they’re on.

So it goes without saying, but let's say it anyway: the concentration of attacks on trans people isn't because trans people are the only people fascists hate (although they absolutely do hate them). It's because they're the people they think non-fascists are least likely to defend.

Trump's "golden age of America" so far...

-Inflation ⬆️
-Stock market ⬇️
-Thousands of layoffs
-Consumer & worker protections gutted
-Diseases spreading
-Federal funding illegally frozen
-$10 million+ spent on golf
-An unelected billionaire lining his pockets at our expense

Education really is everything

Because they are “Christians,” not Christians

For those who observe Lent, perhaps we should consider using it as a time to prayerfully boycott Amazon, Target, Walmart, etc.

Seven years later, angry Black shoppers in Montgomery refused to patronize downtown retailers because of Jim Crow policies in their stores. It took just 37 days for store owners to give in and promise to treat Black shoppers with respect if they called off the boycott.

If you’re siding with Vladimir Putin, you’re wrong.

A friend told me about her!

I see your Bost and raise you Mary Miller. She quoted Hitler in a speech and called the overturning of Roe v Wade a victory for “white life.” Just taken out of context and a misreading, of course.

In light of everything happening, I wrote about how the KKK in the 1920s felt unstoppable, about the people that fought against them anyway, and about how fascism always fails. dansinker.com/posts/202…

“Millions of us are used by the wealthiest elites to perpetuate and do the dirty work of keeping systemic racism alive and thriving in the USA. It’s not our place to decide and tell Black and brown people that their reality does not exist.”

Billie, the black and gray goat with his ears straight out to the sides standing in a snow-covered pen. #goatsky #goats #ccdoc

Billie the goat does not have an advanced degree (he's a bachelor, he doesn't have a bachelors). However, he thinks education is a fundamental good and should be extended to all people to help them have better lives and be more enabled to be loving presences in the world.

Dear @mapquest.com, I strongly dislike your interface. I love your Bluesky presence and your refusal to bow to the Orange Cheetoh. So, crappy maps for the win! (BTW, I almost got lost last night, but at least I didn’t have to risk looking at a map that supports fascism.)

Stand Up America and fight. What can you do to help? You can:
1. Look for and participate in protests near you

2. Call you local senator and your state senators. If you need something to assist you in finding the phone numbers or knowing what to say download the five calls app

@markjacob.bsky.social

I appreciate your advance apology. lol

Shad the white brindled goat eating hay from a metal and wood feeder against the backdrop of snow covered Fields. #ccdoc #goatsky #goats

Shad throws a bit of a side eye when he knows the world's wealthiest man is intentionally cutting aid to the world's poorest and simultaneously dismantling safety nets that are imperfect, yet help us love our neighbors. He isn't sure if hell exists, but thinks the man should pack shorts just in case
