There are women who want to have babies and women who don't want to have babies.
Why are we spending so much time being mad at women who don't want babies when that energy could be directed at supporting the women who do want babies??
A little shift in my content and a new name: The Feminist Motherhood, where I examine the intersection of feminism and motherhood, and prove they are not at odds.
I promise I will release all of this content as I have the time and energy. I love you all and sincerely wish you the very best on your spiritual journeys. This has been incredible and I adore you all.
I was supposed to release a podcast. That hasn't happened. I recorded three beautiful episodes with the most amazing guests. I plan to release them as stand-alone posts on my stack, Nomadic Musings. I also have a couple more deconstruction chronicles to release. +
I think my next project could be a book. I have a working title. But I need to recover from the last five years first. I need to take the time I need to be the healthiest version of myself - physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually. +
we were all learning incredible things together. Now it just seems as though we are gathering into our cliques, circling the wagons, and trying to fight for influence. +
I also cannot watch this community schism in real time over The New Evangelicals. My heart cannot take it. So I'm signing off for now. I might be back. I'm not sure microblogging about deconstruction is for me anymore. In 2022, deconstruction was new and fresh and +
Hello dear ones. I have reached the point of burn out. I'm going to step away from deconstruction social media and focus on myself, something fundamentalism commands against. "You must serve to the point of exhaustion" was preached from bible studies pulpits at my church. +
In the wake of the TNE report and subsequent defense of toxic behavior by its followers, I will be immersing myself in Rachel Held Evans’s content. Because whatever that leadership model was is what we desperately need.

You can find more info and the report in the comprehensive website linked above. 3/3
The deconstruction community is not immune to the lingering effects of the toxic environments we escaped. Holding ourselves accountable in the ways we did not or could not hold our previous communities is imperative. 2/3
The New Evangelicals were investigated for misconduct and left the results to be published by others.
This is just a reminder that if you are a white cishet male, you have extra deconstructing and decolonizing to do and we don’t talk about it enough. tnereckoning.com/summary 1/3
I haven’t had an issue with either!
I’ve found a nice lil cozy spot over in Threads and am really enjoying it. Some really great feminist work going on there.
Wait...people really think Kendrick Lamar's performance was supposed to be patriotic?
Please bring back liberal arts 😭😭😭

Another Deconstruction Chronicle is live, featuring @daaaave-atx.bsky.social's story! thedeconstructionchronicles.substack.com/p/a-deconstr...
I started this project to feature deconstruction stories to combat the lies spread about deconstruction by conservative evangelicals.
Of course he did.
Fascinating to live in a time when your response to a half time shows announces your politics.
It’s really about the lurkers. Something finds a crack that was already there in the conservative worldview and suddenly you find yourself a lurker. That’s what happened to me. And there’s so many “somethings” flying around these days.
God gets us.
Mood all 2025.
I’m sure liberals said that about me too. These souls need an iv bag.
What liberals don’t actually realize is it’s not about conservatives. It’s about the lurkers. Something finds a crack that was already there in the conservative worldview and suddenly you find yourself a lurker. That’s what happened to me. And there’s so many “somethings” flying around these days.
And that diss was posted while I was half asleep lmao
My calling to speak to and confront conservative Christians has nothing to do with their willingness to listen.
Exactly! And the lurkers see you. I always posted for the lurkers and some of them have told me how I changed their minds. I was doing so much good over there.
