Everyone should be promoting the I've had it podcast after this disgusting right wing cancellation campaign.

When being just and honest comes at a price, pay it. When forgiving seems like a defeat, forgive. When everyone tells you to think of yourselves first, do not be afraid to put yourselves in the last place. Be willing to give up time, money, comfort and plans to serve others. May those who see you find themselves asking: โWhy do they live in this way? Where do they get this freedom? Why do they love one another so much?โ #ApostolicJourney #Uruguay

Democrats, if they play their cards right, could put the screws on the Republicans for many decades:
- nuke the filibuster
- nuke the electoral college
- new Dem trifectas gerrymander in blatant Dem favor
- tilt the 2030 census counting to favor Dem states
We can do this.
NYT: Democratic Gains Could Advance an Alternative to the Electoral College
โLawmakers in key states said on Thursday they had already begun having conversations this week about introducing legislation to join the National Popular Vote compact before 2028.โ

are we finally going to reckon with how subversivist tendencies in queer spaces are disastrous for transsex people who have a medical need to transition

If you are a trans woman, you are obligated to become a feminist.
If becoming a woman holds no world-historical significance to you, then youโre psychically barren.
Being a woman is more than an aesthetic, lest you be a โfemboyโ.
Read your foremothers, please.

when youโre a trans woman you have to spend your whole childhood being derisively compared to a girl for not performing masculinity well enough, then when it turns out you actually are a girl suddenly everyone calls you a man and says itโs impossible to be misogynistic toward you

It really is crazy how much evangelicals have monopolised mainstream discussions of Christianity in America because this is literally just official Catholic Church doctrine - it's what I was taught at school.

Why is it that binary trans people are hated for โattaching themselves to the gender binaryโ yet the cis people whose social structures cause us to adhere to it get a free pass?

Capital punishment is unacceptable in any case. The planned broadcast of the taking of a life by firing squad is nothing short of performative barbarism. Do we really want our children, who will inevitably view it, exposed to the pornography of a state-sponsored slaying?

Gotta hand it to Fr. Martin, โI deal patiently with my detractors because theyโre all secretly gayโ is a devastating troll. Really good stuff.

I receive more and more of these messages: apologies from people who used to protest ministry to LGBTQ people, who end up coming out. Just received this today. Name withheld. Often those who are the most filled with rage are the ones struggling with their own sexuality.

In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgent to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity.
