The conversation is also reminding me of the incredible work @dlmayfield.bsky.social is currently doing, including receiving over 1,000 responses (!) to their question: “What Christian stories or concepts caused fear and anxiety for you as a child?” bsky.app/profile/dlma...

I’m grateful for @karenattiah.bsky.social voice and leadership for many reasons. Today I’m grateful for the conversation she’s facilitating about children’s rights, including the problematic role Christian narrative and theology play in our current culture’s inability to adequately protect children.

Hey @kenjennings.bsky.social. If you didn’t before, by now you must understand how dismissive and mean this feels. And coming from you, in this time, feels WAY too much like a lot of others’ rhetoric calling for care and equity, but excluding trans folks from those calls.

James Dobson is finally dead and I have been trying to besmirch his legacy for the past few years! If you want to understand how he targeted strategic developmental stages in childhood to create people ripe for authoritarian abuse, start here: strongwilled.substack.com/p/chapter-3-...

So grateful for the work @erininthemorning.com has been doing the past few days, breaking down each anti-trans executive order. Please stop and take a few minutes to read this thread and then (at least) a few minutes more to take action to protect trans young people.

No joke sometimes on first or second bite I start crafting a rationale for why a second sandwich will be necessary.

As someone who was born in Green Bay and has been a lifelong Packers fan, I am (without any irony) so happy for Bears players and fans today. The Packers/Bears rivalry is most fun to me when both teams are great. This Bears season has been painful to watch + I’m excited for them with this change.

This is a fantastic thread with a lot of helpful links. I just called my representative. Took less than two minutes. Thank you @threnody.bsky.social for this!

There are a lot of great starter packs you can easily search for to find trans and nonbinary writers, artists, organizers, and more. Also will say I’m particularly grateful for what @emilystjams.bsky.social, @dlmayfield.bsky.social, and @transscribe.bsky.social are up to here.

During my first real week on Bluesky, I’ve found so much joy and learned tons from the trans voices that have literally shaped the experience of this place and continue to do so.
