We can’t stop a war, but we can do our part in destroying an idol. This, at least, we have agency over. It’s our Puritan birthright. New post at A Queer Imagination: open.substack.com/pub/mattmorr...

An angry straight in a fit of road rage just yelled “BITCH” at me through his open window. He thought he was dressing me down, but all I could think was it’s 𝐩𝐞𝐚𝐤 𝐟𝐞𝐦𝐦𝐞 to have some Kevin throw a misogynistic slur your way. I’m all 𝒃𝒊𝒕𝒄𝒉 𝒚𝒆𝒔𝒔𝒔𝒔𝒔𝒔 𝑰’𝒎 𝑺𝑯𝑬!!

Here's a get-to-know-me post! These are movies/shows I will play just to feel a little less alone at home.
Movie poster for "Clue," featuring a sketch-style drawing of an old manor, with characters from the movie standing in each of the windows and at the front door.Four iconic, beautiful, wise, and witty women pose for the camera like the divas that they are.Movie poster from Grey Gardens, which features the main character standing in front of a dilapidated house in a fur coat, a strange hair wrap, and an intriguing expression on her face.The promotional picture for a show about a cannibal psychiatrist, in which a devilishly handsome man, with bangs sweeping across his forehead, looks straight into the camera as though he is imagining how he is going to eat you.

Cults, y’all. Cults. The more cult documentaries I watch, the more I’m suspicious of even the most seemingly progressive and inclusive religious organization. Because even in those settings, high-control behavior is possible.

Imagine you’re someone curious about Christianity and you see this tweet, then you see an image that says, “Be sure to make the Eucharist the center of your life.” What does that teach you about the Eucharist? That it inspires and justifies anti-LGBTQ speech? Probably.

Matt Morris @mattmorris.net · 14/06/2023
Wow. If there’s any question why people think the Church is an institution that’s out of touch with the needs and realities of the people, please see this tweet from a CoE priest. Christianity inspiring spiteful humor is never a good look for Jesus.

The internet runs on an interesting mixture of transparency and secrecy. Some of us tell all, and others build identities behind which to hide. Some of us do a little of both. - Teo Bishop New post on name changes. Spoiler: My Subst@ck has...

I was DELIGHTED to discuss imagination, creativity, and transcendence with the brilliant artist @kimbramusic on her podcast, #PlayingWithFire. We also dove into my experience of Paganism... a first time talking about this in a long while. Listen now: pod.link/kimbra

PSA: The @desiringGod account is not worth your time. Trash theology. Awful treatment of women. Garbage parading as piety. The only good reason to visit that account is to mute or block it.

Last night someone stole my motorcycle. It was parked near the corner of Marion and East 16th in Denver. It’s an uncommon bike. You won’t see a lot of chrome Royal Enfields on the street. If you’re in Denver and you see it, please @ me or call 911. CO folk—could you RT this?
