The first major model of ministry for me was the priest in Les Mis.
You stole from the church, ok. Let me feed you and give you the best silver that we have: clearly you need it.
The only true way to steal from the church is hoarding wealth and not sharing with those in need.
The Fasting I Have Chosen
To Break The Chains of Oppression
To Set The Oppressed Free
-Isaiah 58:6
Ashes From The Palms of Revolution
To Kindle The Flames of Resistance
A Virtual Ash Wednesday Service
March 5th @ 830 Eastern
Bring ashes, or something to mark your forehead
And message me for a link.
I wish I had my copy of Sabbath as Resistance for boycott day reading.
What if people of faith embraced a weekly Sabbath day? A day of rest without work or spending. A day to remember that the world and its inhabitants aren't resources to be exploited, but gifts to marvel, appreciate, and nurture.
If there isn't a giant Palm Sunday March on nationalist churches and table flipping extravaganza this year, what are we even doing as Christians?
Jesus asked Peter, Do you love me?
Peter said, of course I do.
So Jesus said, then feed my flock.
Want to show love on Valentine's Day, feed and care for your community. There is no love like the love of mutual aid.
So the Gulf of Mexico gets citizenship status and becomes the Gulf of America.
For every drop of water in the Gulf, we should offer citizenship to a refugee.
He's a toady for today.
But there will come a day when Trump realizes that he is Musk's puppet. And on that day, they'll clash.
Maybe the phrase should be executively cucked by Musk?
Red, White, and Blueland.
The Gulf of America.
Make Canada the 51st state.
Buy Gaza.
Clearly the goal is not to make life better for residents of the USA. It is for Trump to build an empire of his vanity. Cause none of this makes eggs cheaper.
The founding fathers looking at Trump's America:
Hold my tea, bro.
Nah man, throw that shit in the bay.
Flying a Free Gaza and Free Sudan flag during the Super Bowl Halftime Show is the height of Sacred Mischief.
I love a tactic that demands attention, causes a disruption, and confounds law enforcement because no laws were broken.
Dissent is our sacred duty.
When Canada breaks treaties and violates First Nation sovereignty to exploit natural resources the international community is largely silent.
When the USA threatens to violate Canadian sovereignty it is international news.
We can't only fight against empire when it threatens white people.
I didn't watch the super bowl but it sounds like I need to catch the half time show.
Mad props to the person who unfurled the Sudan and Gaza flag, I hope the police release them soon.
Why are we boycotting the Superb Owl? Is it because we can't touch his beak?
The Owl has the right to decide who touches the beak.
A warning for Evangelicals, Hitler allied with the German nationalist churches up until he secured power. Once he didn't need them anymore, he dropped them.
When the power grab is based on excluding and demonizing everyone, sooner or later, we'll all be discarded and then targeted.
Trump wants to create a task force to end anti-Christian bias
To end bias against Christians, the entire administration should resign, confess their crimes + the ways they have oppressed others, turn over their assets to support those they've harmed, and accept whatever punishment the courts decree.
It is the double standard that bothers me. An immigrant changed Twitter's gender to X and got full control of the government and had now made the entire rest of the immigrant and trans + nonbinary community live in fear.
We need a concentrated effort to refer to Elon as President Musk and for all media to stop covering Trump and seeking comment from Musk instead.
We need Trump feeling mad and threatened by Musk so they turn on each other. Jealousy is the key.
It's not petty because it is true.
I'm just a Friar Tuck in search of Robin Hood and those merry miscreants.
And moments after posting this prayer, there was an earthquake. Let's take it as a sign of God's favor, and the holy one will help us wreck this travesty.
Spirit of Mischief,
Give us the courage to smash their walls.
Fill our hearts with your fire that our love may melt ICE.
Help our every deed echo those eternal words
To welcome the foriegner and set the captive free.
Amen.

The enticing sin of empathy. Thank you Christian Nationalism for turning one of my few remaining virtues into something salacious.
Come sin with me, let's empathize with the oppressed and care for one another like the heathens we are.
Since he has no respect for the rule of law or the Constitution, where is the executive order lowering the price of eggs?
This man does whatever the hell he wants and he clearly doesn't want to lower prices.
He lied to you about eggs.
I give you permission to take that shit personally.
I pray for the day when queer folks and immigrants aren't a people in need of a begrudging mercy, but held as beloved siblings with the same dignity and rights as everyone else.
I pray for the day when the mighty are torn from their thrones and the humble are exalted.
Always a good time to remind the world that my pronouns are they/them.
Trump and Biden shared a lovely tea together on inauguration day.
One was drafting pardons for his family.
One was drafting pardons for his goons and insurrectionists.
Must have been some stoney silence over them scones.
Somehow, I don't think the preemptive pardons will slow down Trump's thugs.
A Christmas Carol is the best holiday story, no religion, no faith, just a bunch of ghosts scaring the rich bastards into giving a damn.
I don't care what you believe as long as you will haunt the oligarchs with me.
Churches need to be prepared to be true sanctuaries, to physically bar ICE from entering, and to stand between them and our neighbors.
Donald Trump's administration will test our conviction.
We must defend the vulnerable and continue to welcome the stranger. Even if they jail us, God sets us free.
In the last two weeks I've seen the Biden White House Facebook page do more to tout their record and try to convince the people that they've been working for the people then I saw during the entire election. Feels a little late guys
Wicked excited for the Skeleton Crew.
It looks like the Goonies in space. And I'm here for the cheese on cheese goodness
