TLDR: It's shady. If you want to know what's been going on behind the scenes in Georgia's State Elections Board meetings... TUNE IN TOMORROW. sos.ga.gov/page/state-electi… * These meetings are open to the public!! Get loud, get involved, speak up for democracy!

(RCC) Momof 28 y/o: my daughter isn't religious, but we are. Our priest said you have to call St. Thomas for annointing of the sick, can you do that? Me (chaplain): Yes, I can them, but not w/o her permission. Mother: are you sure?

Me (calmly): Yes, she is an adult, so I can't ask them to come unless she requests it. (Internally screaming: hell no! I'm not forcing a priest on your kid - this is how religious trauma occurs!!) Who knew years working with homeschool moms would prepare me for chaplaincy. 🙄

Last week Rash and I were discussing schedules. She looked at me confused, “wait, is the foot washing thing on Monday or Thursday?” “Thursday,” I answered, “Why would you think Monday?” “You keep calling it Monday Thursday!” I need to start pronouncing Maundy more clearly. 😅

Playing Baldur's Gate 3 while learning Greek means that every time I see "Tav," I always hear it as "Tan."

No, I'm not playing BG3 because I am trying to be a good student and study for my Greek midterm, but my mind keeps wandering...

The book algorithms just recommended a book called The Professor is In: The Essential Guide to Turning your PH.D Into a Job. I’m flattered, but I don’t have a Ph.D nor am I in a Ph.D program. One day, maybe, but I have a Masters to finish first.

One of my favorite compliments to receive is “you were homeschooled?! How are you so well-adjusted/normal?” To which I respond either “I have no clue” or “you think I’m well-adjusted, but I’m just really good at masking - I’ve been doing it my whole life.” 😂😂😂

The second response is a bit tongue-in-cheek, and one I give only to people I think will follow my sense of humor, but there definitely a grain of truth in it. Nevertheless, I still love the compliment.

Joined threads because it is what is available to me, but would love an invite to blue sky if anyone has a spare.

So, with the proliferation of so many Twitter alternatives, will “tweet” become genericized like “kleenex?” Like, will we start saying “I saw a tweet” to which someone will ask “on which platform?” Anyway, I’m trying the 🧵one, so you can find me on there under dominiqueddeming.

It seems everyone is jumping to the invitation needed app. Anyone have an extra invitation they would be willing to give me?

It's that time when corporations pretend they aren't fair-weather friends and try to convince me I should buy something they slapped a rainbow in June. My cynicism meter is maxed out. Until they advertise shoes. Stop showing me shoes!!! I am weak and on a budget. 😩

Responses like these are disingenuous. The majority of the formerly homeschooled folks I know who want reforms are ND - including me. Current homeschooling laws failed us NDs !

We’ve heard concerns from parents that this movie “glorifies thieves”, and we want to reassure them that it also glorifies smashing people in the face with a lute. #DnDMovie

As of today, I am officially a postulant for Holy Orders in the Episcopal Diocese of Atlanta! 😁 I am incredibly grateful to be taking yet another step toward the calling I've felt since childhood and to be in a church that affirms the callings of all God's faithful people.

Don't tell me spiritual warfare isn't real. I've spent 2 days caring for LGBTQ+ folks in three different contexts, and it's not stopping any time soon. Say it loud: God loves Queer people, trans kids deserve medical care and support, and queer kids deserve safety from bullying!
