Watched “Coming Out Colton” (Netflix) next. The rejection by his Catholic priest and Christian “brothers” is triggering and awful.

You are exactly who you need to be and you don’t need any redemption. You also don’t need a mythology.

I made vegan pasta carbonara last night. Delicious, easy, cruelty free, lower carbon footprint.

“Mormon No More” (Hulu, documentary) was a beautiful exploration of queers escaping religion and learning to love themselves. Many parallels to my own escape from Protestantism. 🏳️‍🌈

When EUR goes low, SEK goes lower.

I wonder if they continued their thinking to consider how their home countries treat visitors and immigrants upon arrival.

The wait time was ~20 minutes and Sverige passport control is far less intimidating that entering the UK or US as a non-citizen.

Today at ARN passport control, a UK passport holder complained to US Americans about the long wait and “Sweden is not friendly.”

The Americans responded how faster it is when they return to the US.

They didn’t like being treated as the non-citizens they were in this situation.

I need my anxiety to go on vacation when the rest of me is on vacation.

My husband strongly prefers I do not wear a Republic of Gilead t-shirt at July 4th events in Texas.

Going on much needed vacation. Visiting family in Texas. I keep coming up with things I should do with the free time and keep reminding myself I need to relax and not do a damn thing.

As a gay atheist, I am sad about the loss of freedom from religion in the US.

The population trends are still clear: the Republican hold on the south will fall within a decade. It’s just going to be a shitty decade.

I remember hearing this "song" by Christian music artist Carmen.

The lyrics are wild, but summarize the loss of the US Christian theocracy (and now its return).

I spent my childhood in the Bible Belt.

Christian adults were obsessed with:
• prayer in school
• making abortion illegal
• putting god back in America

The "silent majority", as they referred to themselves, has won. I never thought they would.

The US needs national movement to #Repeal2A, even though it is not yet popular in enough states.

Beat the drum.
Simple message.
Loud and louder.
