#Finished I graduated Cum Laude with a Masters in Theological Studies over the weekend. I got all my stuff shipped via Pod to Philadelphia. I am now switching gears to doing queer public theology and presenting my research on the history of Fundamentalism in North American Christianity.

I'm starting to feel like some people hated the holocaust only because the victims of ethnic genocide were primarily Jews... they didn't hate the act itself or the mechanisms that allowed it to happen. I'm also realizing truly how racist America is that jim crow era isn't being discussed....

Disability is not a moral failing. It’s not a punishment.

It’s simply part of being human. If you live long enough, you will likely experience some kind of disability. It’s one of the only minority groups you can join at any time.

Stop treating us as less than & help us combat ableism!

Queer people aren't trying to make straight kids queer but straight people are constantly trying to make queer kids straight.
BREAKING: The Supreme Court takes up a case challenging Colorado's ban on conversion therapy for minors, after having previously turned down many other similar challenges.

The law, which protects against efforts to change a minor's sexual orientation or gender identity, was upheld below.

Disabled women are more likely to experience abuse than their non disabled peers

We’re often trapped with caregivers who treat us badly & lack the support to leave

Many disability benefits are cut if you marry, forcing dependence

We need a universal basic income so we can have autonomy #IWD2025

But

Straight people have been working for centuries to make queer kids straight.

Never forget that.
