Watching Manchester vs Bristol (men's basketball) - interrupted by the LO's nighttime routine - glad to see MCR pick up most of their deficit in the second quarter. Well see what the next 20 mins brings

Also (last Quote post, promise!), our "National Unitarian Fellowship" is running a conference at the chapel featuring a talk on Christian Nationalism!

They phoned me to see if my Unitarian Chapel wanted to attend. I politely pointed out that, according to the website, their beliefs are antithetical to our values.

Lol someone snuck a Chick Tract into my chapel 🤣 Yeah thanks, cause I wasn't sure whether you thought we were all hell-bound queer Unitarians
A pamphlet asking "Are you a good person?" Such tracts are used to convince people they are going to hell unless they accept a particularly conservative form of Christianity

Being told by a Brit my accent is strong on Friday, then having an American think I'm British on Sunday is wild but not unusual for me.

I've been in three shops this morning, each with only one person working (at least front of house), running around trying to do jobs clearly meant for two or more. I feel sad for those under this pressure, presumably because the companies think they can save a few quid.

Friends! I need a bit of help. I would like to collate examples of "quiet allyship" that to you, as a queer (and esp trans!) person, makes a big impact. Something that might seem low-key to ppl outside of the community, but that actually makes a significant difference. Please feel free to repost 💙

LAST YEAR, someone tore down #Pride bunting at Wesley Church Centre, Chester. This year, Kate transformed those tattered shreds into a beautiful reminder of resilience and hope. As #ChesterPride returns, we remember: God’s multicoloured love cannot be destroyed. 🏳️‍🌈 READ MORE: bit.ly/ChesterPride25
A display of torn Pride bunting in rainbow and Progress Pride colours, arranged on a black background. Three cards feature excerpts from a poem by Kate Matthews about violence, vulnerability, healing and God’s 'multicoloured love'.

We need a term for someone who is unhelpful by being helpful. Like someone who puts away dishes that another got out to use. Because they exist and they is me.
