  1. A quotation from Madeleine L'Engle

    We need to dare disturb the universe by not being manipulated or frightened by judgmental groups who assume the right to insist that if we do not agree with them, not only do we not understand but we are wrong. How dull the world would be if we all had to feel the same way about everything, if we all had to like the same books, dislike the same books.

    Madeleine L'Engle (1918-2007) American writer
    Speech (1983-11-16), “Dare To Be Creative,” Lecture, Library of Congress, Washington, DC

  6. #Christian #Empathy? This is sick.

    Why is it that when #conservative #christians talk about "empathy", the words that follow just feel… off? In this video, we break down the #conservativeChristian interpretation of empathy — and why it often ends up feeling #judgmental, #coercive, or just plain #weird.

  11. As a gay man in America, I’ve grown accustomed to justifying my very existence. My identity has been a topic of debate at family gatherings, church pulpits, school board meetings, and political stages.

  16. It suddenly struck me that religions can do one of 2 things:

    1) Religion can give you answers

    2) Religion can lead you to ask questions

    I prefer religion that does the 2nd.

  21. 4/ There are multiple ways of reciprocating in relationships anyway. Not everyone wants to do #TalkTherapy all the time like I do. It's even now occurring to me that standoffishness has benefits. When I share my emotional state with my empathetic boyfriend he can get really down when I'm miserable. My sister's mood in no way seems tied to mine, making her a potential source of strength for me.

    I struggle not to be #judgmental yet I am #insecure, so I'm defensive & that's judgmental

  26. Years ago, I stopped by a supermarket after a gym session. I was wearing a tank top and my shoulder tattoo was visible. I was looking at something or another on a shelf when an elderly man got pretty close to me. I assumed I was blocking something he wanted to get at, so I shuffled out of the way. Then I realized he was looking at me, not the food.

    His lips were pressed tightly together, and he was shaking his head in a tsk-tsk sort of way. "You're a woman, you have a tattoo, and that is not--"

    I interrupted him cheerily. "Not your body. Not your business. Bye!"

    I left him there all judgy-faced without a target. I guess he had the sanctimonious equivalent of blue balls. Boo hoo.

    Later on, I told someone about this, and they chided me for not taking a tongue-lashing from that old man. "Fuck that," I said. "That's how I spent my first twenty years. I don't owe that to anyone."
