I cannot overstate how excited I am for "Reading the Bible Through Queer Eyes" by @thisisbgm.bsky.social and Fr. Shay of @queertheology.bsky.social. I've listened to their podcast, used their devotional "Queers The Word", and been a part of Sanctuary Collective for years. They always have great

Your pleasure cannot wait. Puritanical culture tells us to button up our sexuality. To not speak of it in polite company. That pleasure is for straight men. No. Come back to your body Say yes to your desire. When you fuel your erotic life, your whole life lights up. We need you to shine bright.

You don't need more sex tips, you need to heal the shame that you're still carrying in your body and spirit.

If polyamorous people can figure out how, where, and with who to spend holidays when having 3 partners, I promise you and your parents and your in-laws can work it out.

Sex and romance are not at odds. Neither are promiscuity and commitment. Nor autonomy and interdependence. You are big enough to hold it all.

“We outlived James Dobson” is little comfort to me as I have a number of dear friends who didn’t outlive him. He’s not the only reason they’re gone, but he made this world a place where it was that much harder for them to survive. May we see the end of fundamentalism speedily & in our days.

After I came out, there was a period where my dad and I were really struggling to talk about it. A few months in, he told he’d bought a book to try to understand better. I looked and saw it was endorsed by Focus On The Family. I told him it wasn’t to going to be helpful and to throw it away…

Two things can be true: - I want to believe no one is irredeemable - James Dobson made the world a worse place and we are better off without him May those of us still here work to undo all the harm he wrought upon us.

Do you love HIM or do you love what he does for you? How he makes you feel? How others perceive you? There’s a big distinction there.

What if all the ways we love—and lay 😉—were special? What if your relationships were expressions of your values? What if you could honor all the people & experiences that shaped you? What if believing in something bigger than yourself mattered? What if friends could be family?

I saw a TikTok today quoting the Buddha that said, "If you give me a gift and I do not receive, whose is it?" "It's still mine." "The same thing is true with your insults and anger" that's energy right there, folks.

If the citizens of Sodom had acted more like LGBTQ & polyam people, the city might have been spared. The sin of Sodom is explicitly named as neglect of the poor and inhospitality to the stranger. LGBTQ ppl fund each others transitions and some of us regularly welcome strangers into our homes 😉😈

One of most frustrating parts of starting or restarting something new for me is that in the beginning… I’m just bad at it. So then it feels like a “waste” of time. I’m trying to get back into making videos about queer and nonmonogamous relationships and OMG it’s a slog

The Tea Party protests in April 2009 had about a third of a million people involved, and the political media treated it like a game changer for the Obama presidency. The No Kings rallies were AT LEAST ten times bigger than the Tea Party protests. Will the press keep pretending Trump is popular?
