How are we so good at ignoring everything in our religious texts that's about us and finding everything that's about gatekeeping?
I don't get how the Bible literalist can read all of Leviticus and not get anything about restitution, atonement, or dare I say reparations! How has anyone mined all of the gay stuff from the Bible and missed all of the parts about personal responsibility?

"Prove you matter"= eugenics.
So, for the record: My 2024 prediction was, “We cannot defeat them, they will have to defeat themselves.” I’ll assemble a BINGO card for the next few years, but a Felon- Elon (bird app) beef was essentially the FREE space.

One of the most clarifying things I've seen in the past few weeks is "de-escalate all conflict that is not with the enemy."

Science friends! I’m crowdsourcing recs.
I’ve been inspired by @sarahmackattack.bsky.social to make a little science library on my street.

Free/low cost ideas preferred! Especially appreciative of links to zines I can print out.
