I will be okay. Not because everything is fine, but because I am surprisingly difficult to destroy. Says Skeletor who notices being hard to destroy sure doesn’t mean a bunch of asshoes don’t keep trying.

“My heart was circumcised and its bloom became visible; and grace sprouted in it; and it made fruits for the lord. For the Most High circumcised me by His Holy Spirit; And he drew out towards him my innermost parts And filled me with his love” Odes of Solomon 11.1-2; my translation

Benediction: on this final day of pride, may you be blessed by being or knowing a queer or trans person, who reflect the image of god not despite being queer or trans but because they are queer and trans. In the name of the Nonbinary Parent, the Transgender Son, and the Genderfluid Spirit. Amen.

On this day of all days I will turn in this manuscript for peer review. Biological sex is variable (intersex folks prove this) and mutable (trans folks prove this). It has always been so and always will be. Those who say it binary and immutable ignore evidence in their extreme gender ideology.

For anyone who needs to hear the Good Word today, I was walking around with a song in my heart…the song I solo’d on the Jeriesse Johnson Gospel Choir float in the pride march 20 years ago: “I am a Friend of God.” I was blessed to have gay church communities; everyone does. Still, God loves you! ❤️🌈

Working on final edits of my book manuscript before turning it for peer review - it is due July 1. So far I cite three films in my discussion of ancient texts: Jurassic Park, Bull Durham, and Barbie. Pretty sure I can sneak in Dogma.

So I have been asked for a piece I’m writing to take the wealth of research I have done on Moses in early Christian sources (The Christian Moses [McGill-Queen’s University Press, 2019]) and “bring it forward.” This obviously means I should trans my previous readings of Moses, right?

Omfg I was like temporarily obsessed with Avalon in the late 90s when they were the epitome of ccm. I got bored of ccm and moved on in my musical tastes but the memories of trying and failing to sing along with their songs lives with me.
