True! But they also aren't smart. They write these things quickly to get them out which leaves loopholes that subversion can make an impact and slow things down.
Notice they never clarified which religion. There's plenty of room for malicious compliance. I'm doing my part in writing out a few new liturgies for doing so. Saints like Katniss Everdeen printed and hung in your desk... Hey, you didn't specify which religion.

Notice they never clarified which religion. There's plenty of room for malicious compliance. I think secular humanism should have a new resurgence.

I wanted to do something to allow some malicious compliance to this new OPM memo. Especially this one of Katniss, never bow the knee to the capitol. We stand now to stop the reaping of our neighbors. #SanctuaryoftheOthered

I've been silent on here for a minute.
I've been working on something new that's actually something old. A resurrection of sorts
I've long felt othered by the Church even when I was still in it.
Christianity is not my thing anymore. but liturgy? Liturgy still is.

Wait you are telling me that the man who has 25 credible accusations of SA, caught on tape bragging about SA, and has on numerous occasions sexualized HIS OWN DAUGHTER doesn't know anything about infamous trafficker Jeffery Epstein, despite being photographed with him countless times?
If those files drop, it’s not just the end of him.
It’s the end of his whole fascist machine.
That’s what terrifies him.
Because without his enablers?
He’s nothing.

Fuckles's power is hanging by a thread.
He’s not afraid of being on the list. He could weasel out if it were just him.
But I’m betting it’s not.
Republican Senators.
Congresspeople.
Maybe even Supreme Court justices. 🧵

We danced for a god who never showed up. Now the silence speaks through us.
Still haunted. Still healing.

In this world of legalism and cruelty, Esperanza answers with love. When a lawyer tests her, she tells a story where the only one who loves is the immigrant. Not the priest. Not the scholar. The immigrant
“Go and be like the immigrant.”

In other news: While avoiding horrific flooding in Texas, Ted Cruz did not find his god at the Parthenon. Sadly, Greece doesn't do golden chickens.
Where them weather machines at? Are they with the Jewish Space Lasers?
How long we got on the TACO timer?
10 years since he called us rapists.
10 years of silence, fear, complicity.
I wrote a poem too raw for the feed.
The image says it all.
Read it. Feel it.
Then say it louder.
#PoetryAsResistance
10 years since he called us rapists.
Still no justice.
This poem is fury, memory, resistance.

It's been 10 years, 3 weeks, 1 day since that Mother Fucker called us Mexicans rapists and murderers and you all have done nothing to stand against it. 10 fucking years, and you all still see me and my people this way. Now he's going to put us in camps, where you at?
This one’s for the guerreros we’re raising. For those we lost. For those who fight.

"Where are you located?"
They ask as if valid
I'm on my land pinche guedo!
Instead, my reply pallid.
Ohio, as If I need to explain
Today is hard to be Latino.
I blame the guy in charge
Get off my line gingo.
Just dropped a new poem, Broken Religion.
A reckoning with faith, colonization, and survival.
We are the light! 🔥

Yeah, Fuckles' Plaything can't do anything. He's all about image he doesn't want that image, at least not yet. But damn this is scary.
I love how you get your reds to pop so well!
It's probably already there. I doubt the Anglicans would let the evangelicals get too far though. If they still hold the sway they once did in the UK.
Oooo, Nepo baby is trying to come convert you british heathens to American Christian Nationalism? Who wouldn't want that? lol I used to go hard against him on twitter. That wasn't great for my mental health.
Here's an underground #waterfallWednesday photo probably have never heard of it...
